The weirdest thing is acting crazy with the new limited-time Rainbow Six Siege bundle! The Siege X pack includes 12 operators, an animated skin for the 556XI assault rifle, a Siege X badge, a legendary ash bundle, a Siege X charm, and a massive 2,670 R6 Credits. That is a lot of content! While some may be calling it expensive, others are just glad the decade-old game is still getting content.

The bundle is available now, but the real question is, for how long will it remain so? Not a single word was mentioned by Ubisoft about the end date in their tweet, so if somebody cherishes the pack, I guess this is a moment to really rush. The link in the tweet redirects straight to the official store to buy the pack. However, this is when the icing on the cake kicks in as some gamers started reporting crashes in the middle of a match, which is quite embarrassing if they try to push this $40 bundle in front of us. Another angry gamer lost it with his fit of rage in German against Ubisoft to the gist of “You sons of bitches, my game crashes every time I win, you dirty wankers.” Ouch.

In contrast, the reactions ranged from positive to negative. Some, like @FURY_Global, went with the whole hype thingie and just replied with, “Do want 🖐.” Then you have the likes of @buckmyash, who called the bundle a cash grab: “$40 for things that will be 200 credits in 3 months.” And then you have the real fans just waiting for a naked Majima skin, like @VascoL0rde. Because why the heck not?

There is some magic still being brewed with the Siege X pack. The players continue to seethe over Ubisoft killing Terrorist Hunt, in any case, a fan-favoured mode. @HateSpeechRocks stated: “I am done with Ubisoft, until Splinter Cell comes back.” Then there is @MaheshV_96, who brings the light into how players that already have all the operators unlocked are not getting compensated, which it’s a slap in the face.

Not all are shades of “nay,” of course. @Deepakusa93 gave a solid “Wow, thanks 👍🔥,” which means a few are still quite happy with what Ubisoft is putting out. And @NorkDorf Entertainment lends a bit of an ambivalent luster by asking how these exclusives affect the community.

The package has its issues, though. A hard-core Siege player with deep pockets would want to get their hands on this before it disappears. If you’re that guy who’s still out there waiting on “fixes to crashes” and the “return of old modes,” then I suggest sitting this one out for a while. Oh, and by the way, the Siege X pack is here, friends, and it has been getting mad talk—good or bad.
