While his days of competing full-time are now behind him, ex-Rainbow Six Siege pro Niclas 'Pengu' Mouritzen appears to have taken up a role as private investigator for the competitive Siege scene.
Over the course of the last 24 hours, the former G2 star has tested, uncovered, and reported to Ubisoft several audio bugs and exploits involving C4s, grenades, rappels, and more. Pengu has also criticised some in the pro Siege community, who he says have known about these bugs and have potentially been "abusing" them in competitions (including the coveted Six Invitational) for years.
Pengu's revelations begin with him tweeting that he had tested audio bugs that make "dropping hatches, vaulting, and ripping C4/nades" silent. He also later manages to replicate the bug to make throwing rappel ropes silent too. Following his discoveries, he then says he received several messages from pro players across multiple regions that these bugs had been in the game for "a year", but that none of them had reported them to Ubisoft.
