One of the most iconic things about the Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6 franchise is the terrorist hunt mode. First introduced with the original Rainbow 6, this game mode pits players in a PVE experience where the team must work together in order to eliminate terrorists/complete the objective while trying to stay alive. Group tactics and coordination are everything in this mode, which makes it fun.

The latest version of terrorist hunt appeared in Rainbow 6 Siege, which introduced new mechanics such as the terrorists being able to perform most actions a player could at the time such as reinforcing walls, barricading rooms and using gadgets, which made it a bit more realistic like multiplayer, while still maintaining the feel of the classic PVE experience.

These following videos show what terrorist hunt is like and what it should be:

Unfortunately, a mistake has been made. Due to Siege's Player Vs. Player experience growing, more players have been using terrorist hunt as a training mode, to practice their aim and prepare for matches. What Ubisoft decided to do after looking at it, was reduce terrorist hunt to a mere training mode. During the release of Operation: Ember Rise on September 11, 2019, key elements that made terrorist hunt what it was in siege were stripped away, with no option to be enabled again. These were the bomber type of terrorist and the rooms that used to spawn with C4 and barbed wire in them. Another mistake came again when terrorist hunt was renamed to just "training grounds", only now only being meant for training.

As Rainbow 6 Siege continues to grow in the PVP part, it seems that the game's PVE experience has been forgotten about, as not even training grounds has been updated since Ember Rise.

This mode made Rainbow 6 Siege a great game, having a different variety of gameplay. It doesn't need to be all about PVP, and there can still be a place for PVE in Siege, even in the present day.

So what must be done? What this petition aims to change about the game is the addition of a new game mode. Simply called "terrorist hunt", this new mode will add back in the bombers and rooms of C4 and barbed wire for the classic terrorist hunt feel (these option CAN be toggled off under matchmaking preferences, to find matches that do not include these because these features can be an annoyance for some players at times). This game mode also aims to bring back the night maps, but in this mode only. As a stand alone game mode, those that don't want to play it can stick with PVP, while Rainbow 6's terrorist hunt community can play this mode.
