Planning Tips (12)

Learn about the Preparation Phase in Rainbow Six Mobile. Discover how Attackers use Drones and Defenders set up defenses during the crucial 45-second window before the Action Phase begins.

Hey there! So, you're diving into Rainbow Six Mobile and want to get a handle on the Planning Phase, right? It's actually called the 'Preparation Phase' in Siege and Mobile, and it's a super important part of the game. Think of it as your team's quick huddle before the main event kicks off. What is the Preparation Phase? In Rainbow Six Mobile (and Siege), this is the 45-second window right at the start of each round. It's your chance to get your bearings before the action really heats up. It's not available in every game mode, though – some Arcade modes or Seasonal Events might skip it, and you can even disable it in Custom Games. For Attackers: Recon is Key! If you're on the attacking team, you'll get control of a Drone. This little guy is your eyes and ears. You'll want to use these 45 seconds to: * Drive around the map and find where the objective is. * Spot those Defenders and see where they're setting up. * Ping any gadgets you find – super helpful intel! * Just get a general feel for the layout and potential threats. Don't waste this time! Good intel gathered during the Preparation Phase can make or break your attack. For Defenders: Fortify Your Position! As a Defender, this is your time to shine with setup. You'll use the 45 seconds to: * Set up your defenses around the objective. * Deploy your gadgets strategically. * Prepare for the incoming assault from the Attackers. Think about where the Attackers are likely to come from and how you can best slow them down or counter them. A well-prepared defense can shut down an attack before it even really starts. The End of Preparation Once those 45 seconds are up, the Preparation Phase ends, and the Action Phase begins. That's when the real fight starts, and all the planning you did comes into play. Mastering this phase is crucial for success in Rainbow Six Mobile!
