Why are Rainbow Six Servers so terrible?
So far I've been disconnected from almost every single game I've played today, and after each disconnection, I've ran a speed test to make absolutely sure it's not me, and every time? My internet is fine, so it's gotta be something on ubisoft's end. I was wondering if anyone knew the science of their servers, and why they're so DC prone.

EDIT: Important note I forgot to include: Rainbow Six is the ONLY game that's been doing this. I can play Overwatch just fine.

Also, I'm adding a screenshot of that internet test for legitimacy:

200mb/s ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Make sure you ain't downloading anything or have anything else that consumes internet open. But with 200, I don't see how those would affect you either, so yeah probs the server.

Because they, since launch, have been more focused on hitting this stupid 100 operator goal and skins galore to make money. It's the same reason exploits and bugs can go almost full months without being fixed ... but a new OP - that takes a week of testing.

I dont remember ever having issues with r6, r6EW, or r6RS.

Your network speed is not the only factor. Your cpu has to be able to process and send packets. Keep task manager open to see if there is a spike or constant max of your cpu when you disconnect.

That's the test for latency to your LOCAL server, not ubisoft's server (which will not appear in Speedtest.net), additionally, all of that is worthless if the server is bad.

I'm aware it's for my local server. I was using it to make a point that it's not my internet that's the problem here.
