The New Rush Pistol allows players to shoot themselves or other players to temporarily boost speed and gain invulnerability. The Rush Pistol is behind a pay wall which makes the player buy the Pistol to even have a chance to get on the speed running leader boreds. Also all the runs that was done prior to the Rush Pistol being added will be completely useless. I think there should be a different category. Leave your ideas and feedback
Me personally, I really don't consider it behind a paywall, since you don't HAVE to pay for it, you can just get bronze once in any maelstrom and buy 12 new gadgets. And so far there have only been 3 released. And the game already has so many separate categories(most of them still with no runs). Adding more categories just for one gadget isn't really a great idea I think, it would just result in MORE empty categories.
I think the rush pistol gives a considerable advantage for runs like any% and single map 1 mission, but i've noticed that runs like single map 3 missions requiree more than just run around the map and don't make the rush pistol so op that it cannot be beaten by pure dedication
I can see why this would be frustrating. It’s always annoying when new content gets locked behind a paywall, especially when it directly impacts competitive elements like the speed-running leaderboards. I remember when a similar situation happened in R6 Siege with certain weapons and boosts. It felt like the game shifted focus, and I wasn’t too happy about it. On the flip side, I found https://ssz.gg/rainbow-six-siege-hacks-cheats-aimbot-esp/, which had some useful tips to get better at the game without needing to pay for extras. I think adding a separate category for runs with the Rush Pistol would be a fair compromise. That way, players who don’t want to pay can still compete.
