Getting to grips with Rainbow Six Siege's gameplay can be a steep learning curve for new players and Ubisoft is well aware of this. Heading into its seventh year of content for Siege, Ubisoft has announced that new onboarding measures are coming to its tactical shooter - although, the new Team Deathmatch mode isn't one of them.
Speaking to The Loadout, several members of Siege's development team explain why Team Deathmatch hasn't been created with newcomers in mind - despite the fact that it's a "less serious mode that can be played with friends", according to associate game director Christopher Budgen.
"While we believe that TDM offers a great way to learn the weapons of Siege, we do not consider it to be an onboarding mode at its core", says Budgen. "Our engaged userbase will find this mode to be a fantastic way to start their play sessions... they will be challenged much more in TDM than in a mode like Training Grounds."
