@raven linden if i was a girl i be rocking something of this kind but as i said its personal pref

dont mind the glasses

[raven linden]

fairs i like it

[nocturne ruin]

what in the fortnite shit is that

[raven linden]

not very feminine tho ygm i couldn’t tell it’s a girl

[high pier]

Lol and you see totally personal preference as i feel dead inside looking at this monstrosity 😅

[cerulean beacon]

Yooo that fire

[nocturne ruin]

Vaiiya has found your location

[tranquil shuttle]

Wanna play

[raven linden]

wait this is the best outfit in the game tho

[willow jay]

EXCUSE A MF BOY FOR NOT BEING FEMININE.Thats my main build

[high pier]

How can i just ignore those glasses they are right there and yellow

[raven linden]

femboy and female are different 😂

[willow jay]

it was just a really quick example i didnt even swtich to female body

[raven linden]

anime skins would make hella money @normal epoch

[willow jay]

there. i corrected it for you

[raven linden]

thanks brodie, make a better skin now

[tranquil shuttle]

Lol

[willow jay]

there is one already

[raven linden]

also is ruby hard to get i guess player count is lower than other games that’s why it’s combined t500 with pc and console?

[willow jay]

(still on mans body)

[covert flax]

why do I feel like Embark does all the bans at 9AM so they can be ready for possible appeals throughout the day (really stupid theory)

[raven linden]

do u have that one? can you show me a normal skin with just the hair from itv

[covert flax]

or for them that would be 8AM

[high pier]

There's a few asain cultural style ones that are dlcs too

[woeful dock]

emerald riot shield skin would be sick and SH1900 too

[cosmic echo]

Makes sense

[tranquil shuttle]

The most important that they ban cheaters

[cosmic echo]

what are they using, easy anti-cheat?

[high pier]

Aint the first one about to be a thing? (Meaning it's in the roster for the 3 emeralds season 7 rewards so anyone that gets to emerald 2 gets it)

[covert flax]

no way

[woeful dock]

[willow jay]

i tried to be as femnine as i can get

[woeful dock]

nah fr wdym 😭

[high pier]

Make it to emerald 2 before end of season and you get the emerald riot shield

[raven linden]

see what i mean tho ur rocking a tank top and horrible sweatpants

[woeful dock]

fingers crossed

[tranquil shuttle]

Will be there is a stream at open qualifires?

[high pier]

Hey wait slow down im only at 1,800

[raven linden]

is it hella time consuming to get emerald

[woeful dock]

yes man if u dont win YES

[high pier]

Oh yeah like 200 hours if not more

[raven linden]

ru fr?

[woeful dock]

i am on win streak 7

[high pier]

If you never win its only 1,200 games

[willow jay]

i mean thats what i have but

[raven linden]

gulp

[woeful dock]

💀

[covert flax]

WHAT IS THIS INSANE FUCKING LAG

[tranquil shuttle]

That's alot of time

[raven linden]

hmm i might get the battle pass for the hair then idk

[high pier]

But if you on the other hand win every game it's only 93

[willow jay]

thats also fye imo

[high pier]

Well only 260 hours if you start and lose every game within 13 minutes

[teal scarab]

I got emerald 1 like 4 weeks ago, now im almost diamond in ranked

[raven linden]

that’s lifetime tho no

[woeful dock]

yes

[tranquil shuttle]

11 days straight

[raven linden]

how many hours you took roughly you think

[high pier]

Or about 70 hours if you win every 44 ish minutes

[woeful dock]

i only play like 1.5 hours to 2 after work :D

[teal scarab]

Uhh, I would guess maybe a 100 hours

[teal scarab]

Same, thats with me taking some weeks off

[raven linden]

ru just the king?

[woeful dock]

thats crazy bro are u asian?

[high pier]

Do you play soloq or with a group

[willow jay]

am i mistaken or there was a chance you get whole tier in WT if you done well

[teal scarab]

What no, @high pier soloq

[raven linden]

difference between emerald 4 and 1? just weap skins?

[covert flax]

are the servers dying rn
my internet speed is okay
but the game is GIGA laggy

[woeful dock]

okay the reason i asked is we could have queued not being racist

[high pier]

Yeah each stage unlocks one nes weapon with emerald 4 being no weapon but a badge and emerald 1 being all 3 weapons and the badge

[willow jay]

from e4 to 1 is like from from bronze 1 to plat 3-4

[woeful dock]

my phillipino friend is facing this issue

[teal scarab]

Im focusing on ranked now, no reason to play WT anymore, ranked is more sweaty which is fun

[high pier]

They are always dying 😔

[raven linden]

why is gateway good i can’t seem to use it properly it feels bad to throw

[woeful dock]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-sad-gif-24408204

[elder pewter]

Has it also just started?

[raven linden]

ah okay i’m not too fussed then i have a beautiful m11 skin

[woeful dock]

its since yesterday

[raven linden]

@high pier how many hours for dia you’d say

[high pier]

Give me some of your time just guy ditched on me after agreeing to swap jobs

[elder pewter]

Hm, if it's ongoing I'd recommend reaching out to support!

[high pier]

About 200

[woeful dock]

yeah i'll let him know

[teal scarab]

I also got Emerald 1 in S3 which was the emerald AK skin, not many people got it, it was the toughest experience I've had in the game and I've been playing since S1

[vivid coral]

I am making a heavy load out to counter light and riot shield, I hate Riot shield so much

[raven linden]

dia in world tour yeah?

[high pier]

Should i reach out to support about geting 4 - 5, 15 second periods per game where i cant and nothing else moves but i can attack and use gadgets or is this normal?

[low gorge]

OK HEAR ME OUT

[woeful dock]

ohh but must have been fun too NO? i am having fun grinding in wt rn i need the skins so badly 😭

[low gorge]

HOW ABOUT WE NERF WINCH ? LITERALL LOW SKILL FREE KILL BUTTON + CASHBOX MANIPULATION

ITS LIKE U GET VINCHED AND UR 10000% DEAD NO MATTER WHAT

[high pier]

No clue :/

[raven linden]

anyone else not being able to find games like i’ll connect to the server indefinitely for 5 mins and have to close my game, happened like 5 times yesterday

[raven linden]

i was asking if you meant 200 hours for dia in WT

[willow jay]

lights , cl40,mgl ,mines,goo, flametrower - all that counters riot.Riot mains literally give you the opportunity to shoot at their team8s for free.Dont hate on something that is being swapped by its mains in the last round

[low gorge]

why the fuck is heavy allowed to have winch while having shak that deals more dps than alot of light weapons when both pellets hit ... or sa12

[high pier]

Not really though there are counters also stop screaming it aint making you look any better

[teal scarab]

Season 3 WT grind was intense, I got emerald 1 in the last day of the season, you had to win 70 tournaments after getting to emerald to get emerald one ( I think they reduced it to 50 wins in the last few weeks), you dont get any points if you lose the final, which I did maybe a 100 times at least after getting E4

[raven linden]

agreed

[low gorge]

its like every fucking lobby there is 4 winch heavies or more

im so fucking tired of half my deaths being to vinch alone

[vivid coral]

Nah I want to make them suffer like they did to me by 2 tapping them with a sleghammer

[high pier]

Dont use light then or dash away this feels like it's a skill issue

[woeful dock]

holy sht thats crazy man glad u made it tho!

[elder pewter]

This might be good to check in #1201841543926005810 and see if you find a similar issue already reported - if not, it's probably worth sending a ticket or making a thread!

[willow jay]

just pick light with dashes and make them chase you for 10 minutes

[raven linden]

ru a light main too it feels terrible i should be able to dash away quicker

[low gorge]

all classes are dead if they get hooked by shak or sa12 vinch lol

[vivid coral]

I don’t want to play light

[willow jay]

thats on you then

[low gorge]

and the 0.5 sec stun makes dash useless

[teal scarab]

Not really, you can't hammer them, or kill them with flame

[vivid coral]

I use sleghammer heavy, I will tell them to block this overhead attack

[low gorge]

who tf runs hammer or flaame

[raven linden]

real

[willow jay]

as far as im informed flamethrower goes tru riot?

[woeful dock]

is this tuff?

[low gorge]

every single ranked game i played today had 4+ vinch heavies per match

[high pier]

No not really i can handle about 2/3 of the winches i get brought in unless theres an enemy teammate also attacking me

[vivid coral]

Sometimes but the problem is flamethrower dmg take very slow while riot will deal alot of dmg too you

[low gorge]

its actually ridicolous how heavy gets away with being op every fucking season

[high pier]

210 damage per second isn't even that fast especially compared to many light weapons

[willow jay]

i agree.But the main strat to counter riot is to have a coordinated team8 who can shoot him from the back while he chases you

[raven linden]

shooting through shields is kinda crazy imo

[vivid coral]

So the fast way is just right click sleghammer 2x and then spam voice line telling them that they dare challange a hammer

[low gorge]

dome is kinda balanced

[woeful dock]

https://outplayed.tv/media/4b6M53
ifu ever think heavy is ctrazy buffed just remember dagger exists

[low gorge]

its just winch is stupidly broken

[raven linden]

when you see a shield if you don’t have glitch grenade it’s literal invincibility no?

[vivid coral]

I remember that 1 spear heavy try to challenge me a sledgehammer where I can 2 tap them easly

[low gorge]

just dont peek a shield and ur fine ...

[willow jay]

gltich doesnt do anything to riots

[tranquil shuttle]

Dome is nerfed to the ground

[low gorge]

but vinch u get in 10 meter range and ur insta dead

[tardy marsh]

uknow how hard it is to use dagger right?

[raven linden]

how much health does a shield have

[thin iris]

You are all lame

[willow jay]

not always even as light i can escape in certain situations

[raven linden]

atleast you have to aim something not just shield on the floor

[tranquil shuttle]

That's very long range it should be 5 meters

[low gorge]

light is dead before the 0.5 sec stun expires lol

[willow jay]

thats not true lol

[high pier]

12 metters but again this seems like a skill issue it really isnt a kill all

[willow jay]

its not 100%

[hollow basalt]

depends on what weapon the heavy's using

[vivid coral]

Idk why but embark should give more durability on dome shield in quick cash only, dome shield looks like a paper wall because that thing will be target by 2 team instantly

[low gorge]

0.57 shak or 0.63 sa

yeah surely u can get away in that 0.1 second window and get away

[woeful dock]

@tardy marsh look at this one 🤩 https://outplayed.tv/media/E6JvgQ

[willow jay]

if i have tp i can throw it the moment the stun expires and tp away.I can dash away some times too

[raven linden]

shotgun enforces a winch only play style which is ok i think shak is kinda silly tho

[tranquil shuttle]

Dome shield old was great

[tardy marsh]

yep but if situation u fighting i mean that place that too open. u got kill because u don't have long range weapon

[hollow basalt]

its even lower actually due to the 5 damage the winch gives

but yes you actually can dash behind the heavy it's just that even if you do you'll end up a shot away from dying

[brittle jasper]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/856107075578888231/1409883236276113542/BAF7EA4F-A342-4D16-B849-0CEB72635F1E.png?ex=68aeff95&is=68adae15&hm=6674ee8a94ecc4bb9de8c6643ca4d534458d0acb1b5e34f867806220e2fea2b8&=&format=webp&quality=lossless are we deadass right now

[low gorge]

u havee 0.1 seconds and ur like 10 hp then

[woeful dock]

true but smoke helps

[hollow basalt]

most of the time you'll get killed by his team anyway by the time the stun is done

[high pier]

Right and these lights have weapons that can 2 tap a heavy with 320 damage in a hit or 155 ish for each shot you act like there arent counters

[tardy marsh]

yeah ik i also play dagger

[low gorge]

nothing is saving a light from a winch

[woeful dock]

lmao

[low gorge]

db is stupidly broken too and should get deleted

[hollow basalt]

if you get winched you arent gonna be able to 2 tap a heavy even with the double barrel, heavy kills you first, specially since he's winching you into his team who is going to be shooting you while youre stunned

[high pier]

You get winched shot dash shot you can, though with a team there you are dead either way

[low gorge]

only class that can escape winch is heavy ... and even that is a stretch

[tardy marsh]

@woeful dock https://www.tiktok.com/@hakizuxtokizu/video/7539594250338503952?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7525454477878281729

[low gorge]

if thy just removed t he stupid 0.5 sec stun

[tardy marsh]

@woeful dock check out mine also

[hollow basalt]

if you get winched you are getting shot by 3 people during the stun and you have a 0.1 second window to dash away if you somehow survive since the heavy's animation ends before your stun

[low gorge]

it would be alot more manageable, winch should not be free kill button on alr strongest class

[brittle jasper]

i wont let me launch until i enable core isolation but im coding a driver which it thinks its a virus or smth

[high pier]

You see this now depends on the skill of the lobby

[tardy marsh]

oh yeah u right

[unkempt yacht]

anyone from poland down to play around 19:00?

[hollow basalt]

well sure if you're playing a quickcash lobby and all of your teammates are playing like its tdm individually from eachother you do have a chance at getting away but that is an awful argument to make for balance, just because people are bad and dont know how to play as a team doesn't mean the winch isn't broken

[tight fjord]

might be just me but.. 9/10 times I MISS

[tranquil shuttle]

Winch is the only specialisation if you fell for it you are 80% dead.

[hollow basalt]

It's you.

[low gorge]

ive seen 4+ winch per lobby in dia ranked today

[spring fjord]

EOMM AINT REAL

[hollow basalt]

just 4? it has a 97% pick rate in prohubs lol

[low gorge]

yeah 4+ per match

[steep raven]

Baa

[storm zealot]

i dont even play light and lockbolt + winch is just cancer

[pure dust]

winch is broken lmao the stun need changing

[low gorge]

sometimes ppl run 2 heavies per team making it more ...

[tranquil shuttle]

Baby 🐑

[steep raven]

rate drip

[low gorge]

i think id rather play db players all day than winch

[pure dust]

cos u can counter db winch is a free kill button

[jagged oak]

https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1202905290958442496

[hollow basalt]

yeah because db is easier to counter by a wide margin

[steep raven]

i did send there

[low gorge]

atleast db ends ur suffering fast, with winch u suffer

[hollow basalt]

there's a reason no one runs db at high level

[jagged oak]

then u didnt have to send it here...

[high pier]

But balancing based off how high ranked players play is some how the fix all?

[low gorge]

i do see a few db players

[steep raven]

but i have to.

[low gorge]

its defo not unused lol, like maybe 1 per 8 team seed ?

[hollow basalt]

It's certanly much better way to balance than the alternative of balancing around people who dont know how to play lol

[pure dust]

winch and pike probably the worst items in the game atm

[low gorge]

atleast pike takes skill to use ...

[hollow basalt]

No it doesnt

[spring fjord]

Eomm is not real

[woeful dock]

it does lol gun not stable

[low gorge]

winch is just land a fat ass hitbox ability and get free kill, pike needs good aim

[pure dust]

yeah no lol it’s a shotgun up close

[hollow basalt]

You dont even need to aim for the head with it, pike actually is worse than winch because with winch you need to be close

[cosmic echo]

I had an interesting situation where I winched a guy and he went right through me. Didn’t know that was possible

[steep raven]

🔥 FIRE

[low gorge]

im not saaying pike isnt op af, but winch is just next level

[nocturne ruin]

vegas, high ground 3 pikes

[hollow basalt]

It has visual recoil sure but even if that somehow poses a problem for you you can just pace your shots

[low gorge]

visual recoil isnt real if u have crosshair overlay

[woeful dock]

https://tenor.com/view/milly-silly-cat-silly-silly-milly-happy-cat-gif-13373795408567336440

[low gorge]

which i think a good chunk of ppl run

[hollow basalt]

it's against ToS so probably not

[low gorge]

naah embark said them self its fine

[hollow basalt]

they themselves said it isnt...

[steep raven]

🔥

[nocturne ruin]

it has a visual recoil?

[low gorge]

at launch yes, recently they changed their stance

[hollow basalt]

they did so in this very chat not even a full month ago lol

[rancid schooner]

That's @rancid schooner

[tranquil shuttle]

Any one want to participate at the major to have fun?

[jade light]

I can't wait for Christmas in the finals 🙏

[nocturne ruin]

pike is single handley the most op weapon

[low gorge]

yeah it is, but id still rather play only pike and db players than a single winch player

[nocturne ruin]

hoenstly i pref the cns one

[pseudo jacinth]

[nocturne ruin]

sa12 or shak if i get winched by the heavy?

[steep raven]

im asia 🙁

[lethal oak]

I feel like both CNS and VAIIYA have pretty mid skin color schemes

[steep raven]

sa12

deals more damage

[low gorge]

ur dead either way cuz of stun

[hollow basalt]

at that range the sa12 does more damage provided you can actually aim

[deft lark]

i hope they change the winch next season, and im saying it as a heavy main

[low gorge]

i mean they have too

[hollow basalt]

They wont since next season's the major and they dont wanna do anything drastic so the people going dont have to adapt in a short amount of time
at most you'll see some number tweaking

[lethal oak]

This whole convo is giving me a headache

[pliant island]

I want to make some handicrafts myself, like fridge magnets, to give to my friends or to some friends who play this game at the exhibition. In the early stage, I plan to make a batch of pendants and send them to everyone in the group for a look. The contents are probably the sponsor logos, mamatama mascots and the like, weapons like Fat Man's Double guns, and game pass stickers. But I can't find the original pictures of the game pass stickers. is there any place where I can download these pictures, or is there any expert who has unpacked them? I really can't find them. I've been looking for a whole day. I want everyone's help. Thank you very much. tfboy is good

[steep raven]

i love the finals and shaun the sheep

Why is chat toxic. This isn't even ranked

[pliant island]

iam sorry

[hollow basalt]

I understood you fine but what you're asking for is a bit hard to find since the game's files are encrypted. The wiki is honestly your best bet

You might want to ask the Devs

[hollow basalt]

[teal scarab]

Yes

[nocturne ruin]

wish there was no stun

[hollow basalt]

Try here @pliant island

Tbh if you are close enough to winch you might as well run goo gun

[tranquil shuttle]

Which server the open qualifiers will be played if anyone know?

[pliant island]

If there is a genuine cns organization in the group, I think I would be very touched

[tranquil shuttle]

@elder pewter

It’ll obviously be ur region

My man isn't afraid

[onyx rover]

Why do u need to ping someone for that

[lethal oak]

I have the same question

[hollow basalt]

thats a bit forward but im glad

[high pier]

Eh maybe but what if you fight against a team in another region what then does it just pick a random one?

[nocturne ruin]

Vaiiyas hired gun

When you sign up I think your signing up to your region only, then if you make LAN you fly there.

When did it fail bruh 😭

[tired epoch]

Yesterday

[stuck goblet]

Kids these days smh

[willow jay]

"The Finals situation is crazy"

[grand brook]

If you dont have 187.7 million players you failed

[high pier]

Fr expecting cs2 levels of players for a game to not fail

[willow jay]

70% of those players never touched MM they are just gamba addicts

[stuck goblet]

I've never waited longer than 2 minutes for a match and I always see new players. Any crying about player count is just a grifter looking for clicks.

[high pier]

MM?

[willow jay]

i meant playing ranked in cs

[grand brook]

Same, ive Qd for ranked in like 4 am mid week and found a game in like 2.5 minutes

[high pier]

Ah never played cs myself

[willow jay]

Fragpunk was fun though

[willow jay]

spyware valorant was way better

[primal canyon]

Like in a silly fuck around way

[grand brook]

Battlebit was fun

[willow jay]

wizard101 was fun

[storm zealot]

i knew how to use fcar once, now im so so washed

[primal canyon]

Idk i think the games gimmick was unique

[acoustic walrus]

who hurt you?

[grand brook]

30 minutes in practice range will get you back

[storm zealot]

i wasn't good but now, i have no idea

[high pier]

And here i thought my most played game was a lot

[willow jay]

i have 1000+ hours on alt acc in cs but i gave it to one of my friends and it got vac banned xd

[primal canyon]

My most played game is R6

[tulip forge]

that more then my rust hours

[willow jay]

but ive played cs since 2007 so combined hours must be over 15k

[grand brook]

I spent 5 years playing cities skylines for 6 hours a day, daily

I could have gotten a civil engineering degree with that time 💀

[steep raven]

may The Finals be popular

[tulip edge]

Probably the name

[steep raven]

and disconnect in a few seconds

[tepid flame]

well thats a lot of views

[high pier]

They always do

[grand brook]

And then reconnect again, before being kicked

[storm zealot]

half is me

[willow jay]

most of which are from already players

[steep raven]

my friend has 15k hours on koikatsu party

[tulip edge]

We got maybe 500 k active players

[high pier]

Wtf

[elder pewter]

#9 should answer this for you: https://id.embark.games/the-finals/support/faq/125-grand-major-2025-rulebook

[grand brook]

I have 10k hours in solitaire

[steep raven]

im not joking lol

[high pier]

You mean 50k right?

[tranquil shuttle]

Thx

[tulip edge]

500 k look at wt

[willow jay]

its more than that.But mf sony and microsoft wont disclose that

[high pier]

Cant send a photo

[grand brook]

Actually i would say 200k
Console players are a lot
Also many players play on xbox for windows

[tulip edge]

I’ve played wt

[pine jungle]

dusty said we havent ever dropped under 300k active players

[tulip edge]

So I can’t see the lowest number

[tulip forge]

i don't get the point of using the xbox app to play this game but people be weird I G

[high pier]

? No im saying i cant look at any numbers as I'm not home

[tulip edge]

And I’m saying I can’t as well 🤦‍♀️

[grand brook]

I just switched after they announced thr new anti cheat
Game is performing a lot better for me now, and I need the extra performance because i am on an old system

[tulip forge]

Gyrila

[high pier]

Oh

[true juniper]

oh for fks sake
1v3 against a stack

[high cobalt]

extra performance than the steam version?

[upbeat glade]

chapter 2 tomorrow (1.5k hours)

[broken egret]

What do i have to do to be able to change my nickname in this server ?

[tulip forge]

i mean the new anticheat they are trying shouldn't effect performance, denuvo anitcheat is different then denuvo DRM which is what usually causes the performance issues

[wise herald]

There are way more players than what you think in this game

[tulip edge]

Well you ain’t winning if they weren’t

[high pier]

Are you the one going alone or your teammates

[high pier]

Always will be

[true juniper]

i was dropped into match in progress that everyone left from

[tulip forge]

i'd agree there's likes 200k active monthly players with probably around 40-60k on at one time if we include everyone

[tulip edge]

A direct 1 v 3 is nearly unwinable

[high pier]

I feel like moist couldn't have made the games playerbase jump that much right, cause steams only went up about 2k

[tulip edge]

(since they removed snukes)

[tulip forge]

thats why you don't get into those situations

[grand brook]

For me yes,
My cpu was always at 100% when playing and system monitor would report thr game unresponsive, many small stutters
With the xbox app my cpu usage is 78-96 usage and occasionally hit 100 and then go back
So it is just more smooth for me

[tulip edge]

Exactly

[high pier]

Ah yeah that one sucks i hate having to join mid matches with there was an option to disable it

[pine jungle]

nuh uh not if i play bow, grapple, tracking dart, smoke, vanish

-every light ever

[true juniper]

against very unorganized team it might be possible
against a full 3 stack? impossible for me

[drowsy cradle]

evidently not true because those ximmers keep 1v3ing me and winning

[grand brook]

Yeah I know that, I just wanted to try it and when I found out the xbox version performed better for me I just kept it

[tulip forge]

steam version for me also runs my cpu to 100% constantly, but performance is fine for an 8 year old cpu

[pine jungle]

and they always get winch shaked

[tulip forge]

ill take 90-110 fps on a i5 8600k from 2017

[tulip edge]

Unorganised still usually no only way I could see is to split one off camp the statue have like flamethrower for the aoe and winch

[grand brook]

I was getting micro stutters that annoyed me lol

Maybe try the Xbox version yourself and see, it might work better for u

[high pier]

Never played xbox version but my cpu runs like 70% and my poor gpu at 100%

[tepid flame]

buy nitro

[tulip edge]

I have won 1 v 3s before but usually because I’m 3rd parting

[true juniper]

welp, i just wasted 3-4 minutes just to see guaranteed loss

[tulip forge]

i have all the xbox stuff disabled
also my game doesn't stutter on the steam version, it just runs my cpu at 100%

[tulip edge]

It’s freeeee

[grand brook]

Yeahhh fair enough

[high pier]

You could've left silly

[pine jungle]

i mean maybe in a game like cs, you can win clutch situations because of a very low ttk (you can onetap with like 1/3 weapons), but because fights are so much longer, a 3v1 will wear you down to a point where you’ll die if they push anyway

[tulip forge]

my gpu be doing almost nothing in this game
but it's when i eventually upgrade my cpu it'll be nice to already have a "ok-ish" gpu

[pine jungle]

i mean ive won some clutch situations but it was also TA defense with mines and stuff alr on point so

[tulip edge]

My name needs to become a rule 😂

[covert flax]

so I decided to check Bernal in wplace
was not disappointed.

[tulip forge]

🤔

[grand brook]

I am the opposite lol
Playing on a laptop cpu from 2017 sucks

[pine jungle]

where frogscar

[grand brook]

Yeahhh its super cpu dependant

[covert flax]

nevermind
disappointed.

[grave sundial]

just gained 4k elo solo q

[wise herald]

I honestly like the small playerbase I get to find a bunch of people I've played with and it's fun

Spare some gpu for the brokies in this chat please (only me though) im out here living with a 1080

[rancid schooner]

That's @rancid schooner

[grand brook]

1060 🥲

[high pier]

The cats seen something it cant get it's eyes off of huh

[tulip forge]

i mean my 4060 is about a 2080 in performance
so we ain't that far off

[grand brook]

The 1080ti was peak tho
Its still pretty good to this day

[grave sundial]

what does the ti in the end mean

[high pier]

Not for long sadly

[pine jungle]

3060 ti when it comes to still being goated:

[grand brook]

It means its 1080, but better

[covert flax]

I really love that Embark just casually picks an completely random tiny town from Mexico with a population LESS THAN 3000 PEOPLE BY THE WAY, refuses to elaborate, and leaves

[high pier]

Titan it's lime the xx90s of the time

[tulip forge]

the whole 10 series (minus the 1030) were all great.
i had a 1070 for like 7 years until i got a deal on a 4060 4 months ago

[grand brook]

A mistake nvidia will never repeat (greed)

[grave sundial]

You should be able to

Whats the screen size?

[pine jungle]

i used to have one til i got an rx 6750 xt, i really loved it. I think i did a lot of shit to get good performance, although unfortunately its very much a cpu game

[tulip forge]

cpu bound then, cause even back on my gtx 1070 i was getting 90-110fps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_sYtauVQvo&t=1s

[grand brook]

Yeahhh its pretty good
My mobile 1060 provides the same performance for me as the desktop one my friend had

I have to retire this laptop this year tho, but am being lazy

[tired epoch]

Uhh I think it’s 27inch

[drowsy cradle]

Games performance has gone down the gutter honestly.

[high pier]

Could try dropping it down to 1080p it's not like the game needs to be beautiful it's a fps after all

[grand brook]

Yeahhh i was able to get 75-85 fps on my old ahh laptop so with a 3060ti you should be, unless hes pairing it with like a pentium

[tired epoch]

Ye prob should but I kinda got used to 1440p on every other game lol

[steep raven]

a

[drowsy cradle]

I get 144 on 1080p with a 9700x and a 4060

[pine jungle]

dude i wanna 9070 so much bro

[grand brook]

Try 1080p,
You should definitely be getting around 120fps
What cpu do you have?

[tulip forge]

this reminds me of when i play doubledash with 16 people in a lan party

[tired epoch]

Prob i should check out what cpu i have

[high pier]

Idk my ryzen 5 5500, 32GB ram, and gtx 1080 run it medium settings at 70 -100fps

[drowsy cradle]

Although yeah a 9700x is pretty powerful and also new

70 is insanely low for what are still decent specs

[steep raven]

it creates heart

[high pier]

What do you mean my pentium 2 core 2 thread 2.8Ghz cpu isn't good enough it came out 2 years ago /j

[main portal]

[tired epoch]

I got a AMD RYZen 5 5600 6 core. Replied to the wrong message

[grand brook]

Nah man you need a 2024 celeron sorry

[steep raven]

mine.

[tulip forge]

the 5500 is about on par with a 3600, and the 3600 is on par with the i5 8600k

[high pier]

The vram is my downfall 8GB isn't much

[rustic token]

imagine having good specs

[grand brook]

You should be getting a comfortable 120 fps man, at least

[noble lintel]

Who remember in the closed beta everyone was running urban operative lmao

[tired epoch]

@tulip forge

[steep raven]

im on 3050

[pine jungle]

cause it was drip

[tulip forge]

you aren't vram limited in the finals. even on max at 1080p it uses less then 6gb

[noble lintel]

True but now i am #Broke #Help

[grand brook]

Ah makes sense, should be able to push 100 i think tho

[versed gale]

the finals

[drowsy cradle]

Im using a 4060 so I also only have 8gb. Every time I want to upgrade I just look at the prices of a 4070ti and decide that my 4060 is good enough, actually.

[pine jungle]

arent we all?

[woeful dock]

lmfao

[steep raven]

if i run it at low

[high pier]

My cpu maxes at 70% usage so it aint even that, also lets ignore the fact that my motherboard was 10 dollars more than my cpu

[tulip forge]

the 5600 should be getting atleast 110-120fps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDRB7ybCl5U

[steep raven]

hey u ready for game?

[main portal]

i have more memory on a 3080 lol what

[woeful dock]

reddit of the finals is crazy

[grand brook]

A mix betweenn low , medium and high
And turn off ray tracing

[woeful dock]

I am asian tho ;-;

[pine jungle]

main sub i suppose?

[steep raven]

everything is static

i just dont know how to make my game more optimized

[austere wing]

are there any dutch people playing this game or any dutch dc server by any chance?

[high pier]

Idk it always shows max usage for both 3d rendering (the top left graph in task manager) and 7.7GB vram usage on steams beta overlay

[tired epoch]

Thanks il check this out

[steep raven]

you think i'm not? i'm asian as well lol

[woeful dock]

ayy okay hop on

[tulip forge]

people bag on 8gb gpus but they are fine for 1080p
and especially on gpus around the 4060 performance wise, it's all you'll really need atm
if you go up to the 4070 and other gpus around that power, yeah you'd want 12gb-16gb

[high pier]

Honestly if i could draw i would join them with these they look great

[drowsy cradle]

Yeah nvidia only putting 8gb on the fucjing 4060. Not even that expensive because I saw videos of people in chinese shops just easily doubling the vram on 4080s and shit. However nvidia greedy so.

[pine jungle]

i mean they do but still definitely a finals community moment

[steep raven]

im waiting

[grand brook]

Its just so you keep buying the new gen, when things start requiring more than the 8gb

[woeful dock]

yessir launching

[covert flax]

I like how Bernal is pretty similar to its irl counterpart, but then the circular theatre (with the spinning platform in-game) is just on the OTHER SIDE of the city, probably to have it fit into the map

[steep raven]

more than that

[pine jungle]

4060 is the low end of 40 series tho…

[small dust]

I hate that thing

[drowsy cradle]

Yeah it doesn't matter at 1080p but still would be nice if nvidia didn't penny pinch since 8gb in modern day is paltry at best.

[high pier]

Soon though just waiting on my drawing pad to come in i cant do crap with my mouse

[grand brook]

Vram is cheap tho just nvidia slap on a 12gb vram for 10 more bucks

[drowsy cradle]

Could have easily put 12 in at minimum still

[tulip forge]

vram has been pretty stagnant since the 10 seires.

[high pier]

It really is it's about 30 usd for 8 GB gddr6

[pine jungle]

yeah but nvidia hates gamers now and they wanna pander to ai

[astral scarab]

Well yeah one a top 5 card of it's generation and the other is a few watts from being a laptop gpu

[tired epoch]

can u not change resolution in fullscreen?

[wise herald]

[drowsy cradle]

You're on borderless

The best phones rn only have 16gb total ram what are they gonna do

[cerulean fractal]

4k ping on phone

[nocturne ruin]

Who tf is jinko?

Uh lies there are some with 24GB

[astral scarab]

Wait fr?

@astral sage

Man you get 4k ping in you live next to their servers

[drowsy cradle]

starts filling it up

[tulip forge]

also bro really using ultra performance DLSS?
sheeesh, i'd jump back down to 1080p with quality before 1440p ultra performance personally

[astral scarab]

What has 24gigs

Oh the funny dude, yh ik that dude

[steep raven]

we might lose this time but we will win

[astral scarab]

Dont know any phones called the 4090 ☺

[nocturne ruin]

@rose storm this is the guest of honor

That's pretty goated tbh

[high pier]

The 7900xtx too

Can we have season 8 tomorrow? I am tired and want more dopamine

U ain't gonna run cyberpunk in those mini boxes

[true juniper]

okay inability to see your ping in the match is weird choice, i just got killed while being behind the wall hm

[astral scarab]

If you wanna max out the vram on a GPU there is much better then the 4090 even if you dont wanna go work station the 5090 has 32 gigs

[tired epoch]

ok so should i be changing anything else

[cedar flare]

https://tenor.com/view/wheremst-gif-15093168731416310701

[grand brook]

I mean if the switch 2 runs it, they can make it run on phones

[cedar flare]

U right

[rare pagoda]

Bro your game is going to look awful

[tired epoch]

i guess its impossible for current pc to run 165

[astral scarab]

I mean the switch has cooling

[tulip forge]

if you want decent quality and good fps try these settings

[tired epoch]

thanks

[rare pagoda]

You need visual clarity AND frames
Going up 20 frames per second isn't worth sacrificing visual clarity

[grand brook]

It okay i want to play it on my phone for 15 minutes a time before it overheats

[tulip forge]

this game even at it's lowest looks good so

[astral scarab]

Itll thermal throttle before that I imagine

[grand brook]

With dlss
The other options are not that good imo

[gleaming moss]

no AA
stonks

[rare pagoda]

I'm talking about blurriness. Upscaled 1080p

[wise herald]

I play with medium settings and it looks pretty good idk

[astral scarab]

Any silk song enjoyers in chat (never gonna happen but imagine a nail skin for the dagger)

[grand brook]

Looks even worse 😭

[gleaming moss]

but runs smooth, i am not playing skyrim here, dont need to be immersed

[rare pagoda]

Would

[gleaming moss]

also no AA = easier to spot invis

[rare tinsel]

God I love this photo

[grand brook]

I cant be immersed with everything looks like its been scrapped by rocks 😭

I foound that xlss is the best options other than dlss

DLAA is peak
looks better than any other anti aliaser and has no upscaling

[brittle jasper]

hi

[grand brook]

Try xlss, it looks smooth and has less ghosting than taau or whatever
If u can use dlss its better

[tulip forge]

looks fine if you use nvidia sharpening imo

[drowsy cradle]

Tbf phones have reached maturity. You can buy a 80 dollar phone and it'll mostly be good enough for most use cases

bro shadap, laptops are great for gaming. as long as they can play the game, and have decent stats while doing so - how could it be bad? you make what you can out of the situation

[tulip forge]

anything above 25c is uncomfortable.

[grand brook]

The photo youtube will get when they ask for my Id

[astral scarab]

[high pier]

Yeah but between the three of us we can split the 36

[cerulean fractal]

Way too cold for me i need a crisp 22

[exotic sparrow]

Nothing phone spotted

Fact, but our summers are hot so in july and august I am comfortanle with 30, anything above 30 i start swearing at the wall

[covert flax]

CMF Phone 2 Pro my beloved

[astral scarab]

18 is my perfect just shirt/light jumper weather

[high mist]

42 C

[grand brook]

18 is peak

[high pier]

Ha even lower

[astral scarab]

Especially when that light breeze hits

[true juniper]

hm

[tulip forge]

man as a kid i used to love summer but as an adult it can fuck off
same with winter and snow

[covert flax]

nice location leak

[golden shore]

does anyone else feel like they turned sword from skillful and annoying to skilless and annoying after the changes last month.. i see so many sword lights just spamming m1 and not bothering to lunge and doing a bunch of damage

[astral scarab]

I love winter don't fw summer and adore autumn

[grand brook]

I would love a 12c day, man I miss winter this summer thing is annoying 😭

[high pier]

Canada born in Vancouver Britsh Columbia but lived in Sudbury Ontario for the last 8 years

[astral scarab]

Peak living is autumn when the mornings start getting frosty

[tulip forge]

aye im in vancouver

[astral scarab]

Give me your cords while your at it

[grand brook]

Yeahhh and when the sun starts setting and the chillier breeze blows

Just comfy

[tulip forge]

decent place. if you can deal with the price of shit

[covert flax]

same
except winter is actually fun
(it lasts like half a year so idek if it can be called fun )

[high pier]

Ay i want to come back some time soon but I'll have to wait for when i finish uni and get the proper money

[covert flax]

I better be cold than sweat so hard my shirt gets an ACTUAL PERMANENT stain

[astral scarab]

Or when you wake up at 5 and the sun is rising with the perfect temp for a cozy jumper or robe

[grand brook]

These are our averages where i live
Mild winters (with days that get pretty low for our standards)
And burning summers

[high pier]

Bet but im in a government building so have fun getting me

[astral scarab]

Mf is that shit acidic that sounds like a problem

[covert flax]

it's called "cheap clothes"

[astral scarab]

Your Canadian

[high pier]

I am

[astral scarab]

I will bribe the staff with poutine

[high pier]

Honestly might work

[covert flax]

apparently there should be raining here, but... it's not raining

watch it start to rain in the next two minutes

[grand brook]

Canadians are just cold australians

[high pier]

Had this warning for a week before it stormed

[crude ocean]

Heh

[astral scarab]

I will bring a stand to make it on the spot so I can accommodate any allergies they have

[high pier]

You might get flooded with the homeless

[covert flax]

risk of rain or smth

[sonic crow]

nothing phone spotted

[astral scarab]

I will recruit them then storm your home

[grand brook]

Recruit & rise

[high pier]

Risk of rain 2 the game :?

[tulip forge]

honestly until you get up to like Quebec or Toronto the weather ain't even that cold

[civic hazel]

@elder pewter Is there any chance we can make a channel for questions regarding the Major? I have a few but it's hard to get answers

[astral scarab]

Would yall rather fight 3 homeless guys (slightly malnorished) or 3 alcoholics (slightly obese)

[high pier]

It aint the winters last awhile but not that it gets super cold, then theres also where you live where it just rains and rains

[grand brook]

Yeah i have some friends who went to study in quebec and they despise winters

[astral scarab]

Me personally I'll take my chances with the homeless

[tulip forge]

whats fun about winter as an adult?
snow sucks to drive in, there's black ice everywhere, the cold is nice i guess, also doing christmas dinners with family is tiring

[storm zealot]

did people really complain about stun gun this much? Winch's just brainless

[astral scarab]

Christmas

[high pier]

I think your solution is staying inside

[tulip forge]

did you play s1/s2 stungun?

[storm zealot]

I mean the iteration that got removed

[grand brook]

Winch will always be better than stun
I quit the game for 2 months because of a game where 3 lights kept stun gunning me all game, i was a new player and man that was terrible

[high pier]

I think you know the answer to that

[tulip forge]

my work is mostly all outdoors, i drive heavy machinery. Mostly cranes that build, skyscrapers and malls

[storm zealot]

problem winch is just a get outta jail card for a bad aim heavy

[sonic crow]

what gun?

[tulip forge]

stun was a free kill

[grand brook]

Nice actually, i love that line of work

[tulip forge]

it's better then retail ill say that much

[high pier]

Ahh, should i trust your skills? Or should i make sure to move into a building not built by you when and if i do move out there

[grand brook]

I worked in a call center for a while

Well my mental health still suffers and I have tinnitus now. No reason to say more

[fallen quiver]

Way less of a free kill than winch. Most times you would lose the fight cus of ttk with stun

[sonic crow]

what am i looking at

[wise herald]

The finals mobile

[tulip forge]

the finals streamed to a mobile device

[sonic crow]

oh lordie

[storm zealot]

and winch isn't lol?

stun gun required you to pull it out and shoot, whereas winch is just a single button.

[wise herald]

And shoot

[sonic crow]

the buttons are massive lmao

[astral scarab]

Yall ever fumble so bad you contemplate blocking your teamates

[high pier]

If you die that often to winh you're either jumping into the middle of a full team or you're a light that isnt that good

[sonic crow]

no :(

[tulip forge]

why would i block someone

[analog drift]

Small ish phone

[storm zealot]

you're telling me winch doesn't shoot automatically upon pressing Q?

[grand brook]

The moment the heavy winches you once, prepare to play at a distance from them

Also what i like to do is damage them a bit, when they winch me I quick melee and pretend i winched them and try to kill them first

Sometimes the heavy winches me only to be killes

[wide swallow]

No 30 seconds of ads with micro size of skip button

No little ad billboard that take half of your screen while playing and if you misclicked it you will be send to TEMU

Right now we recommend familiarizing yourself with all the available info! https://youtu.be/8-09D02iSOA?si=j_13mXOwZSQ_i2HS

[high pier]

They calls you slurs after they run to the otherside of the map and die

[wise herald]

No you gotta shoot to get the kill

[tulip forge]

vc off become peace

if i wanted to chat i'd get on discord with my buddies

also just sounds like another day in rust

[storm zealot]

so let me rephrase

stun gun required you to pull it out, shoot it, and then shoot the enemy
winch requires you to shoot **it **and shoot the enemy

noticed there's an additional step?

[high pier]

Fair i dont often meet talkers but if i do and they play well it normally goes better for me than if i had tgem muted

[tulip forge]

winch didn't literally stop you in place for 7 seconds

[storm zealot]

and stun gun allowed you to shoot and didnt displace you

and it was on a class that at most had the same amount of health so you were most of the time at an advantage healthwise

[grand brook]

A cloaked light (pre nerf) comes from behind you already prepared with the stun gun

Stuns you, you dont even have time to react before the obliterate you from exiatance witg m11

I would take a wonch that comes from a huge ass slow heavy that can be killed when they winch you any day

[tulip forge]

i find ateast in the casual modes, you don't need VC. or even text chat
the ping system is good enough. now if we were talking WT or Ranked. idk why you'd play with randos anyways

[high pier]

And once stun gun was shot it auto swaps to your weapon whats the point you can shoot at the same time after hitting the enemy

[high pier]

I don't have friends

[storm zealot]

my point was never that stun gun was fair lmao

it's that winch is used as a get outta jail card by heavies who need their target upclose to win a fight

[tulip forge]

the internet has like 3 billion people on it.

[covert flax]

okay I'm 17 so I can't really relate, but imo winter is fun because you have a reason to stay inside, and if you go outside, you don't almost faint from the heat

[left dove]

nah its fun to drive one time it took me 2 hours to get back home (normally 30min) and there is a high chance of crashes rararara

[fallen quiver]

Keep in mind, this was only possible during S4 where winch, model, or pike could practically instantly delete a light. That was when we had the "final" version of stun gun pre-rework.

[high pier]

You see but i only speak english so that cuts a huge part out and i dont like Americans they are too racist (i know kinda racist to say but statistically they are) and technically i do have American friends but none play.

[cerulean sparrow]

Christmas dinners and gifts also are expensive.

[tulip forge]

yeah...

[cerulean sparrow]

Winter sucks unless you're like 12

[grand brook]

Actually the stun gun existed for the entity of season 5 iirc

[tepid flame]

silly question, in terms of performance, what game is the finals similar to?

[storm zealot]

winter sucks when you don't get home at 3pm

[tulip forge]

there's forums and also looking for group chats.
it's fairly easy imo to find people to play with that will vc, in like anygame.

[rancid schooner]

CMs, skin him.

[limpid jetty]

Just had a level 90 teammate throw the game and refuse to play with the team, intentionally running off alone directly away from us, "to avoid playing with you two bots" because apparently we "played like morons the first half of the match" (we finished first place with highest scores in the lobby that round) and this guy pulls a 2 to 3 k:d, meanwhile our teammate is 10:2 and I'm 7:3. Is this rage bait or is this an insane man on my virtual reality videogame

[wise herald]

Wasn't the crosshair shaky while you were stunned too

[high pier]

My but i think im too introverted for that

[grand brook]

Man we can play together sometimes
I have some frienda from all over the world ao nobody is racist haha
I play in EU tho so we can switch betweenregions every couple games

[storm zealot]

was the crosshair or your aiming shaky though (genuine question)

[wise herald]

I'm almost certain it was the crosshair

[tulip forge]

crosshair

[fallen quiver]

Ok it was removed in 5.10. You still had instant light deletion, just with cerb instead of model.

[high pier]

Fair, first question though since last person that offered to play with me here asked me than blcoked me how old are you or an acceptable age range

[grand brook]

Yeah true, but stun was the bane of my existance as a new player

[rancid schooner]

The gun would shake everywhere like crazy but if you had a third party crosshair it wouldn't be much of an issue.

[sterile current]

Guys is there any way to change sponsor cuz is accidentally chose the wrong one and I want them purple gun skins mannnn

[true juniper]

its kinda funny to see how my team aim is barely hitting someone, and enemy team is insta shoot me down on appearance 🤔

[elder pewter]

No way to change, sorry!

[covert flax]

no

[wise herald]

I probably only died to being stunned like 6 times during S5 tbh

[grand brook]

25,
The friends i play with are of different ages but not that far apart

[sterile current]

Shit man😔😔

[tulip forge]

depends on if you are talking GPU wise or CPU wise.

rivals is probably the closest.
it's UE5, very cpu demanding while not being very gpu demanding.

i get 90-110fps in the finals with 100% cpu usage and i get around the same in rivals with the same 100% cpu usage

[high pier]

Fair i might be a bit young then 😅 (17) not that it matters much to me it's the internet it's meant to be a private place

[rancid schooner]

@stone thistle Wait did I go against you recently or it bugged?

[pulsar lotus]

Snipers ruin this game man

[storm zealot]

if someone stunned you from behind and beamed your back yeah it sucks but it's also a situation where that light could start headshotting you from the back.

the problem is winch wins fights because it stuns the target and can be shot immediately. If heavy had to first equip winch and then shoot it then it wouldn't be such a cheesy item

[fresh kernel]

Booyah

[tulip forge]

you only really see them in powershift

[tepid flame]

humm i see, my build doesnt have the best cpu, maybe i should change it

[grand brook]

Lol dw about it, do you want my game id? Also I can send u an invite to our discord server

[high pier]

Sure

[tulip forge]

well what are your specs?

[grand brook]

Okay bet check ur dms

[wise herald]

Charge and Slam, DB, Riot Shield

[rancid schooner]

Finally, cardboard rank.

[stone thistle]

Ye I played against you and Jera in WT last night

[rancid schooner]

Man I never noticed. 😭

[tulip forge]

thats wild

[stone thistle]

I had anonymous mode on

[storm zealot]

ah yes 3 items in the game that dont counter winch they just work upclose. cool, now let me introduce you to the fact heavy has the highest healthpool while light had the lowest

[trim talon]

Bro I've literally have been getting like newborn teammates mab

[tepid flame]

here

[rancid schooner]

I thought I could recognize you because of the pfp but the latest update bugged it and doesn't show most of the time.

[wise herald]

I think once you play a lot against meta loadouts you get to see how to counter winch a lot more

[wise herald]

Or just dash back away from the heavy really

[trim talon]

I can't run anything niche in quickplay cause my teammates are level 10

[stone thistle]

My PFP for sure counters my anonymous mode 💀

[steep raven]

if only a korean team expands to the finals

[vivid lily]

https://tenor.com/view/corndog-gif-15363186562722861141

[storm zealot]

It's not that I get winched a lot, I often get to dodge it. It's moreso that a a fair bit of heavy's toolkit (CnS, Winch from specs) can just be used to win a fight if you're dying

[trim talon]

I've been trying to play mini gun and stuff man theres so many noobs now

[tulip forge]

this is a decent build .

this game will run great on that

the ryzen 7600 is about on par with a 5800x3d
and the 5070 is decent, though i'd wait for the "super" versions of cards to drop

[spare schooner]

the finals is not mid

[rancid schooner]

Also guys why are we gettinga alts on ruby taking spots. 😭

[vivid lily]

Yeah it’s ass

[steep raven]

thats @rancid schooner

[crude ocean]

"I'm glad there's no enemies around!"
The humble submarine:

[rancid schooner]

All @vivid lily's fault.

[tulip forge]

also whats up with the 96gb of ram

[tepid flame]

yeah but im looking for a "budget" build, im 99% sure the super version will be very expensive

[wise herald]

CnS has always been the panic button

[vivid lily]

No it’s all oscar’s

[steep raven]

workstation ig

[tepid flame]

huh 96? i might have missclicked

[gleaming moss]

yoo, u also had to change regedit for that? goated setting

[wise herald]

I think you need more ram

[steep raven]

just go for 32gb.

[tepid flame]

shit i missed lol

[tulip forge]

the super version will be cheaper then the TI version . while most likely having 16gb of vram instead of 12'

[steep raven]

im looking forward to upgrade my gpu

prob ill take 4060ti

[tepid flame]

I really hope for the best

[wise herald]

4070ti

[stone thistle]

Bruh there are literally people who've paid $500 to get their account boosted to Ruby

[tulip forge]

yeah it's a great setting.
you can also change it in nvidia inspector without the regedit settings.
though it's nice to have it in the normal control panel.

[tepid flame]

so many new players!

[civic hazel]

Gross

[teal stream]

Lights are more viable than ever why am I seeing people say they’re the weakest they’ve ever been? Swear I see the worst takes ever it’s like we’re playing two different games.

[steep raven]

i have i5 11400f

[tulip forge]

but yeah that setup is good. if i get 90-110, you'll most likely be around 140-150 atleast

[midnight briar]

Mb

[limpid jetty]

Embark should really crack down on smurfing and alts, it's not fun to play ranked when the system that's supposed to keep it fair is abused to hell, and openly so.

[tepid flame]

2k ultra? right? 👀

[versed sail]

Cause that's how much no one wants to play ranked

[wise herald]

I disguised myself as a new player with anon mode yesterday, it was pretty funny people in my team were wondering how was I staying alive

[steep raven]

LETS GO XBOX PLAYERS

[storm zealot]

I've got a good pc but was thinking of upgrading my GPU to get more frames in arc

[midnight briar]

I get 90-110 on a 3060

[tulip forge]

the difference between the 4060ti and a 4070ti is over 2x the cost in most places other then USA

[wise herald]

Ok then yeah if you don't want to upgrade your CPU go for it

[raven cobalt]

4070 ti super and 5700x3d here.
Finals runs great on my machine in 2k

[midnight briar]

Wait nm, I forgot I play on 1080

[tulip forge]

this game is cpu dependant, i use a 4060 and a i5 8600k @4.9ghz
gpu sits around 60% at 1080p while my cpu is 100%

[steep raven]

i play on 3050

[midnight briar]

I got an i7 something, I don't really remember what I bought when I built it

[tulip forge]

if you want everything maxed out, at 2k. it'll be above 100fps idk how much though.

[raven cobalt]

I get 120-144hz on average with Finals, 1440p.

[tulip forge]

you can see in task manager

[raven cobalt]

Mixed settings. I play with AA off because FuckAa

[steep raven]

BOYS WE ARE DIVING BUT I WONT LAST LONG IN THE MANAGED DEMOCRACY

[tepid flame]

id be super fine with that, even cause i use 24' monitor, so its useless

[midnight briar]

I'm working for 6 more hours

[left dove]

well people get bored on the main acc and switch to a smurf then they get ruby there also

[wise herald]

I have a 4090 and a Ryzen 9 9950x3d so I have no say in this

[tulip forge]

this game looks fucked without atleast DLAA or FSR 100% scaling lol

[steep raven]

then they will start selling accounts via xbox accounts

[wise herald]

My PC is a workstation too so idk

[midnight briar]

Ngl I want one of those small ass pcs I can carry around

[steep raven]

my specs
I5 11400F
RTX 3050 8GB
32GB DDR4 3200MHZ

[midnight briar]

3050 8gb

[tulip forge]

it's basically a 1080 in terms of performance

[whole ridge]

I kidnapped some recruits to a super Helldive

[quick pivot]

Hi, I'm coming from Counter, Valorant, and Warzone; I'm finding this game, but I don't know what it is. I just know it has a poor player base. Is it recommended?

[crude ocean]

Ryzen 7 9800X3D
RTX 4090
64 GB DDR5 6400MHZ

[raw sigil]

yes

[tepid flame]

it's cool, you should try it

[tulip forge]

i mean you're on the discord for the people who play the game so
yeah most of us like the game lol

[atomic kettle]

player base is not poor??

[quick pivot]

It has little appeal, do you think it would be good to give it a chance?

[crude ocean]

"poor player base" compared to warzone, CS, and val this game has a great player base lmao

[whole ridge]

It is

[atomic kettle]

nah. stay on valorant homie

[quick pivot]

Yes is poor, i can see numbers

[raw sigil]

yea, if the playerbase was poor, embark wouldnt have so much of our money

[whole ridge]

In terms of numbers

[trim talon]

More people play it on console than steam tbh

[lucid island]

I recently fell in love with the winch hook
I can now catch lights like flies

[neon cape]

Google may be blocking sideloading .apk files on Android... will I still be able to install and play The Finals on my Samsung?

[crude ocean]

20k players on steam along with all the console players. Game is far from dead.

[tulip forge]

i do find it funny that 20k daily players and in the top 100# on steam is a low player count to people

[whole ridge]

I hate you

[brittle jasper]

yo grinn check this out https://drips.fit/canvas

[atomic kettle]

20k players on steam alone is not poor player base

[tepid flame]

yeah make them rage

This is fucking bullshit and I will go Ted mode if this happens. (Joking obviously)

[atomic kettle]

are you smoking crack?

[quick pivot]

Ah im pc, no crossplay right

[steep raven]

Not bad tho

[quaint bear]

20,000 on Steam is impressive considering it's a new idea, and didn't directly copy and existing trend. Bravo!

[trim talon]

It has crossplay

[tulip forge]

? there's tens of thousands of people playing the game
also cross play is in the game with consoles

[quick pivot]

Why doesn't this game have more players?

[neon cape]

Unironically I could go iPhone if sideloading is fully unavailable

[trim talon]

You can also play the game on ps4 somehow

[raw sigil]

ha, love it!

[tepid flame]

there's no sbmm so you will most likely lose

[tulip forge]

because it's not CS style game or a BR game

[atomic kettle]

GO PLAY FORTNITE IF ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS PLAYER COUNT

[crude ocean]

This is legit the biggest insult I've ever gotten

[crude ocean]

I couldn't ever go to iPhone since I have apps I've bought on Android

[quick pivot]

On Twitch it doesn't reach a thousand viewers, what do we do?

[steep raven]

impression<insult

[crude ocean]

I don't know dude

[atomic kettle]

what does this have to do with anything

[quick pivot]

isn’t a 5 v 5?

[tulip forge]

3v3v3 or 3v3v3v3 or 5v5]

[neon cape]

iPhones and flagship Android phones have basically the same hardware at the same price... Android without being able to pirate your favorite games, run bootleg reverse engineered ports and completely sidestep the need to pay for YouTube Premium is nothing

[crude ocean]

3v3v3

[atomic kettle]

tell me you only play mainstream games without telling me, kinda sad tbh

[midnight briar]

That's clearly me bro

[brittle jasper]

its not working for some reason idk if you saw the thing or not
