Ubisoft's Mousetrap system lengthens the lag to punish 'Rainbow Six Siege' cheaters

— allow players to leverage the heightened sensitivity and increased reactions that a keyboard and mouse offer over console controllers. They also incorporate aim assist, autoreload, and autoscope features which have long been scorned by the larger gaming community and banned from anything even loosely resembling official competition.

That will no longer be the case with 'Rainbow Six Siege.' The company revealed its Mousetrap system on Monday, a detection suite built specifically to sniff out accounts running these illicit hardware devices. Mousetrap is already live, has been for a few seasons now as the company honed the system's detection capabilities and built out a database of known cheats. Also, yes, they're very much onto you and your pedestrian FPS machinations.

“We know exactly which players are spoofing and when they were spoofing,” Jan Stahlhacke, gameplay programming team lead for 'Rainbow Six Siege,' announced in the Y8S1 reveal above. “We also know that at the highest ranks spoofers become much more common.” Should the system spot one, that account will see a notable increase in its response times, more than enough to cancel out any ill-gained advantages. The user will have to unplug the device, then play a few more rounds with the"al-ping-tross" chained to their neck before the lag penalty will dissipate.
