Current plan is to develop a full-fledged hardcore playlist ( if the player base allows it). Minor exceptions will exist however for settings other than HUD.

After compiling the Open Beta feedback we received, we have refined our choices for HUD settings and have decided to apply them identically to both Ranked and Casual.

Today, however, we’re excited to share details on how the settings of Rainbow Six Siege’s main PVP playlist, Casual and Rank, will be evolving in the short term as well as our intention to create a dedicated hardcore playlist with its own set of rules. As discussed in our recent Reddit AMA, the team is hard at work in ironing out server and connectivity issues and will detail those improvements in an official set of patch notes next week.

We’re thrilled to see the community’s reaction to the game since launch, and we’re also striving to consistently improve the online experience for all players.
