[minor ice]

casual players HATE anyone whos diamond and above in their games
ive beaten diamond stacks and rubies several times in wt and other gamemodes, but i will still complain about it
and if it gets real bad this season in casual, ill just stop playing most likely

i dont have the mental capacity to come home from work, getting on the game to relax, and all im facing is some sweatlords

[vapid dock]

Maybe I just don't understand the whole showoff attitude that comes with ranked. Like seriously, who are you trying to impress? Some other finals players?

[tardy dirge]

If you don't understand the point of ranked why argue about it?

[zinc cloak]

oh you're looking at it from the perspective of ranked. makes sense then

[paper idol]

I’m a competitive player / ranked enjoyer.

This change basically just throws the entire mode to the wind

[vapid dock]

dude i seriously dont get it, your skins arent exclusive so your mode is worthless. Like why are you playing the game at all. It really sounds like you just weren't having fun to begin with and just wanted to show others you got the fancy skins and some skill

[minor ice]

how i see it: it will kill ranked since theres no point of playing unless you go for ruby, and also drive alot of casual players away because now you dont have to play ranked so previous diamond stacks and some rubies will stomp casuals in all modes

[paper idol]

That’s the entire point of the mode.

Like I don’t think you understand the ramifications that this will have across the entire game

[vapid dock]

I'd like to understand but so far it all just seems like "waaaa my skins arent exclusive anymore" to me

[lusty spruce]

I want 1000 usd for my waste time & money playing this

[rocky summit]

Its more of branding yourself as someone who is not "just casual"
lets say it like this.

Youre working a job... youre doing better than other collagues... Yet you get paid the same exact wage.

If youre good at your job, you should get more wage.

Currently its - the top of the top will have something.

Im for all players all skill levels and that everyone should have fun as they want it.
But now theyre all in one bag.

[minor ice]

when you play ranked you will face people similar to your skill level, especially in higher elo

now its pointless for people who grinded for diamond (noticeably better than casual players) to play ranked since you get diamond weapons either way, and theyll just flood casual modes

which directly affects ranked for people WHO WANT TO PLAY RANKED because now there will be less people, longer queue times

[tardy dirge]

Well the skins aren't the problem itself, it's the fact that they're rewarded to players who show that they can play at a pretty high level
That reward was a way to boost engagement in ranked and for the players to compete and get a nice dopamine boost knowing that they achieved those skins by the merit of playing ranked at such a high level

[vapid dock]

It genuinely sounds like all of you only cared about the skins and showing off rather than the mode or the game itself

[wanton wadi]

Plot twist, Embark lie to you and they just Rage Baiting

[lusty spruce]

Wtf does CNS means

[minor ice]

if people dont see how this change kills ranked AND affects casual players, then there is no point of explaining it to that kind of people, they wont understand either way.

[paper idol]

And worse matchmaking meaning we will probably see posts of “I’m a bronze why am I facing Carnifex, Lamp, Treason, NAGHOST and God Himself in ranked” due to lobbies being disgustingly imbalanced

[inland monolith]

very glad about the new changes, look very nice indeed 😊

[vapid dock]

Now this is a tangible downside I can absolutely understand

[median raven]

God, satan and Aliens in ranked... peak experience

[lusty spruce]

No way you pig emoji me! I am reporting to mods immediately you’re cooked bro

[wanton wadi]

In the past, ranked mode only show your name in the Leaderboard, now people cry 'cause they've no Skin

[rancid schooner]

So, who's excited for Season 10?

[inland monolith]

i dont get why people play ranked anyway, way too boring and sweaty

[minor ice]

come back in a week or two after you get your own teeth fed to you on a silver platter by stacks of high elo players in your tdm/qc/powershift

[median raven]

Where is my animations pack on M60.. plz embark

[wanton wadi]

Stop being Wild @rancid schooner

[vapid dock]

Actually there, thats a better way to put my feelings
Your issues with the reward changes are not tangible outside of exclusivity. (except for the unbalanced lobby hypothetical that was just mentioned)

[rocky summit]

If id care about just playing the game i would play World tour and go 10 and 0 each round...
You have to go trough suffering to get at least diamond... play against really good teams...

So yes.. those rewards were deserved.
And yes id like to show that i went trough that pain.
everyone does.

[inland monolith]

i mean that already happens anyway, tons of people with purple badges in quick play modes

[forest saddle]

hop on TA

[minor ice]

you will see 10x of them now
again, come back in a week or two and talk about your casual gamer experience.

[uneven scroll]

when's s9 dropping?

[paper idol]

I’ve been playing this game since the closed alpha, I’ve been a fan of this game for 3 straight years, I’ve spent 3000 hours playing this game, I’ve supported 3rd party tournaments, I’ve coached at the Major, this game is literally such a massive part of my life and what i do for a 2nd job.

Don’t question my passion for the game over something like “skins” I didn’t really care that they brought back all previous ranked skins cause at least they’re making them visually different from the originals.

I care about the fact that this is just going to push people away from the game and that it’s going to do more harm than good because people feel like they are entitled to earn everything in a game

[vapid dock]

So you look at it like a battlescar?

[inland monolith]

as far as i understand, the people who play ranked are still going to play ranked? you just get world tour progress as well as the ranked progress... so i'm not sure why it would make a huge difference

[uneven scroll]

what in the hell is happening

[minor ice]

anyone who isnt going for ruby wont play ranked anymore, theres no need for that.

[forest saddle]

rog xbox ally x

[rocky summit]

Basically... you could say so.
Actually that is a really good thing to call it.

It shows your skill, progress and experience.

[vapid dock]

Alright see now we're getting to a point that I understand.

[wanton wadi]

The true purpose of ranked is the Leaderboard

[uneven scroll]

i play ranked for the stakes of it all tbh

[vapid dock]

the true purpose of ranked is daycare so my tdm matches are more enjoyable

[uneven scroll]

i want the challenge

[rocky summit]

And im all for that diamond skins will be in WT, just give us something to grind for xD

We will see how it will really be tomorrow.
As you all said, cant judge just yet.
Ranked have not been shown in playtest

[inland monolith]

i thought everyone who sweats on ranked generally aims for ruby anyway... besides, all of these problems you're describing could just be fixed if casual modes had SBMM

[minor ice]

enough of #⚡┇the-finals-chat and arguing

im heading back to #💥┇spawn-point to chew my government issued crayons.

farewell

[smoky kestrel]

true purpose of ranked is letting me get to 39K RS and then giving me easy lobbies full of smurfs until I'm back down to 35K

[wanton wadi]

You should be banned for that

[frozen shale]

the true purpose of ranked is to take years off of your life

[inland monolith]

oh yeah i forgot its coming out tomorrow 😊

[smoky kestrel]

?

[uneven scroll]

is the update tomorrow?

[wanton wadi]

Smurfing is like cheating

[tardy dirge]

inb4 you get the ultimate pass if you're in the top 100

[rancid schooner]

Delay the update by a day every time someone asks.

[smoky kestrel]

oh yeah def

[paper idol]

Not always, I’ve coached multiple people who just wanna hit plat or get out of bronze, like people feel a sense of achievement and accomplishment that they’ve put in the time and the effort to earn something in a game.

It’s not just people aiming for Ruby every season.

[uneven scroll]

True... s9 in 300 Million years

[inland monolith]

i see

[wanton wadi]

In fact, cheater should be sent to Prison fer 6 month

[inland monolith]

well i think people should just relax and have fun.. its just a game 😁

[vapid dock]

I'm on the side of giving casuals something to grind toward but I supposed I also get why you want rewards exclusive to ranked then. However when I suggested just giving casuals their own set of special rewards I was told that it wouldn't solve the issue. What is the issue that unified rewards are trying to fix anyway? It sounds like a bunch of casuals who want ruby skins without having to go grind ruby

[winter hare]

When's S9 dropping

[smoky kestrel]

univeral ban system, cheat in one game, get banned in all games that have this system

[vapid dock]

dude im gonna explode. Its plastered in multiple locations around the server, in teasers and in game as well as having been answered a dozen times in the last 4 hours.

[vague sonnet]

Tomorrow™

[fiery ore]

true purpose of ranked is watching people grind 24/7 to diamond with luck and gold level skill so they can flex with the diamond background on people who have 200 hours and call them shit

[winter hare]

Noice

[inland monolith]

when is season 10 dropping?

[sinful quartz]

anyone know why I have so much input delay or something

[vapid dock]

now we're asking the real questions

[frozen shale]

probably frame gen

[fiery ore]

february 30th 2027

[wanton wadi]

Only game that cheating affect other player.

[sinful quartz]

it's like my sensitivity it just changing evrey 3 seconds

[jagged mist]

new season is tomorrow? I thought it will be on thursday but in game it says tomorrow

[jolly coral]

you are completely correct, and also, us casuals welcome this 😄

[sinful quartz]

do you know how to fix this

[frozen shale]

turn it off?

[rocky summit]

I think they are on a good way.

The good skins and weapons skins could be within the WT rewards for casuals.
And everyone should be happy with that.

Like i said, just little differentiation like - Badge, Border, Frame or something would be enough.
An indication of effort.

[smoky kestrel]

The true purpose of ranked is grinding hard and hitting diamond just to be shit on by 700 kill acount smurfs

[covert flax]

you can't get ruby in casual modes though

[frozen shale]

first of all are you on pc or console?

[rocky summit]

Top 500 is nearly impossible for employed people

[smoky kestrel]

I want topaz skin.

[wanton wadi]

https://tenor.com/view/broly-gif-26285965

[fiery ore]

true purpose of ranked is to attract ragebabies like a moth to a flame

[forest saddle]

should i switch to heavy yall

[frozen shale]

YES

[fiery ore]

yes, join me son

[smoky kestrel]

Maybe I am a ragebaby for not being allowed to hit Diamond

[vapid dock]

What? Then what is the whole debate about the unified rewards?

[forest saddle]

light's not looking good

[paper idol]

The current world tour rewards system was literally fine, just roll the Current Quick Play Rewards into World tour and be done with it.

We had 3 separate progression paths outside of contracts and sponsors, Quick Play, World Tour and Ranked, to complete everything in the game every season you had to treat the game like a full time job.

Allowing world tour progression would have been completely fine and allowed ranked players to not have to go into world tour so the turbo casuals can have their mode.

But they’ve done the inverse of that and made people less incentivised to go play Ranked as the rewards basically mean nothing other than playtime unless you’re Ruby.

[covert flax]

you can get any other gem reward from all modes
but ruby, supposedly, stays as a ranked reward

[fiery ore]

everytime i solo qued i got up by like 7k and then queing with teammates had me drop down 5k, are my friends anchors 💔

[vapid dock]

this shits confusing as fuck yall got me all messed up now

[mellow locust]

thoughts about new season?

[covert flax]

the best part?
we don't even have official confirmation about all this

[fiery ore]

idk it only launched 4 days ago

[vapid dock]

so we're bitching about ideas, that makes it even worse oh my god. Are we gonna start punching ghosts next?

[uneven scroll]

maybe this is all a cns scare tactic to confuse us and distract us from THE FINALS

[smoky kestrel]

well it sure as hell isnt like that for us, my friend is way better than me and we synnergize amazing together, we just dont have a 3rd with the same dedication

[paper idol]

I mean… it’s kinda been spoke on by Oscar on stream as well as Embark Partners getting further clarification on it privately

[mellow locust]

?

[fiery ore]

i don't have anyone to go ranked with past gold 💔

[smoky kestrel]

solo plat is free

[fiery ore]

and that's why i do it instead

[tardy dirge]

I only played ranked to get the gold m60 skin

[vapid dock]

Overall as a casual myself, I want something to show my dedication to the game but I dont want to grind to reach some leaderboard. I just want people to see that I play alot beyond my elim counter and level going up.

[smoky kestrel]

Idk if this is a hot take, I find the gold skins better than plat

[fiery ore]

see i know my changes of getting a moron on the team is high too but i accept it cause it will happen regardless

[median raven]

Which season

[tardy dirge]

S2 iirc

[fiery ore]

oh def, gold looks better than silver premium😭

[smoky kestrel]

actually what does iirc mean?

[tardy dirge]

That's where I peaked (and had no time to play afterwrads)

[fallen quiver]

Still kinda a lot we don't know, like what is the visual distinction, how many coins will we get, how much do different skins cost?

[vapid dock]

if i remember correctly

[median raven]

Ah.. that's when I joined the finals..gg

[frozen shale]

i think this shows dedication enough

[tardy dirge]

I joined in S1 but I have nothing to gloat abt that 🥲

[smoky kestrel]

2K here

[olive sky]

anyone wanna play ranked ? i gotta get gold before new seasons heavy here

[wheat cargo]

Meh, its been out for 2 years

[rocky summit]

Welp... now youll have to face all the sweats cause they will be playing casuals modes.

THAT is the biggest problem... giving casuals and tryhards into one bag.

BUT we will see im going off cause its geting heated here.
HAVE FUN and good talking to ya all

[vapid dock]

unfortunately not

[fallen quiver]

Recall, not remember. But same difference

[smoky kestrel]

ah, ty

[vapid dock]

why yes i have 500 hours afk in menus, what of it

[paper idol]

I mean I’m assuming that it works like a free choice token, essentially you see what you want and claim a prize.

Allegedly the visual distinction between the skins is that they’re carbon fiber instead of chrome on the hardware of the weapons.

(EG Sledge handle would be carbon fiber or FCAR grip would be carbon fiber)

[fiery ore]

i got about 950h in matches and 1850h on steam

[wheat cargo]

let people remember or recall as they please

[vapid dock]

"recall correctly" doesnt have the same ring to it imo

[fallen quiver]

Never

[honest gull]

Will there be new power shift map ?

[smoky kestrel]

That sounds dope

[frozen shale]

[smoky kestrel]

Power Drift

[fiery ore]

yea it's gonna be overseas

[covert flax]

okay someone now has to make an animation of the powershift platform getting drifted by some random heavy

[honest gull]

Lmao TwT

[fallen quiver]

If that's the visual distinction, that is so dumb. But I wouldn't be surprised. And yeah that's how I would think it works. But also, I would think they wouldn't take all the ranked rewards and hand them out for free. But here we are.

[paper idol]

Yeah in theory it sounds awesome.

Just wish it meant something for ranked. Hoping that this is all a big misunderstanding but idk

[fallen quiver]

Remember doesn't have the same ring to it*

[vapid dock]

it took me too long to realize this means you have like 900hrs not playing

[smoky kestrel]

Well I stated my oppinion abt ranked too many times already

[restive arch]

dang

[wet pendant]

embark is trying their very best to kill the game off

[vapid dock]

this is probably why I have so many hours on steam but so few in game atp

[fallen quiver]

The new system is awesome for like the ultra casual fps players out there.. but it's kinda bad for anyone who prefers ranked, no?

[frozen shale]

it's okay they were probably jamming to the finals ost in-menu

[vapid dock]

real

[vapid dock]

it sucks for the 5 people affected

[uneven scroll]

should battle pass skins also be in the shop

genuine question i wanna hear people's thoughts

[wet pendant]

correct

[fallen quiver]

I mean I think in fps as a whole, ranked is way more popular than casual

[smoky kestrel]

no. recolors maybe, the original, no.

[shrewd timber]

Hello 👋

[covert flax]

no
that would mean you'd pay double

[acoustic panther]

no just get the battle pass and earn them.

[frozen shale]

no one cares about ranked except the top 700-800ish players

[uneven scroll]

im a dork. i forgot that the legacy passes existed LMFAO

[vapid dock]

oh fps as a genre yeah probably, but not per game no. Casuals definitely outnumber ranked players by a long shot

[covert flax]

I hope Embark adds clothes which parts can be added and removed like how it works in ARC Raiders...

[wanton wadi]

Casual is the one who make game possible

[uneven scroll]

would love this feature

[smoky kestrel]

lol, I do support recolors tho, idk maybe my oppinion is trash but I love seeing my fav cosmetics in new colors

[uneven scroll]

why did it choose omni and not invictus

[fallen quiver]

For this game yeah. But like if you're a player coming from a mainly ranked game like Val or Apex, and you queue up ranked here, then are paired against the t500 teams (only ones left), I'm guessing you'd just alt f4 and uninstall

[uneven scroll]

oh no thats valid, i forgot the legacy passes existed so thats why i asked the question sgshgege

[smoky kestrel]

[vapid dock]

Us casuals are putting in the blood sweat and piss to keep the game going. If it were just ranked players the game would have never gotten beyond s2

[frozen shale]

recolours are okay as long as they dont sell it for 800mb

[vapid dock]

the tears come from the devs running the game since they gotta put up with us

[wanton wadi]

Real, ranked player should obey to the casual

[fallen quiver]

This is not a us vs them kind of thing...

[vapid dock]

I am being facetious

[fallen quiver]

Nothing casuals or ranked players did caused any of the changes in s9

[uneven scroll]

were an entire community and we should stop pitting ourselves against each other. thats what multico wants

[ember flame]

[uneven scroll]

[wanton wadi]

Do what CNS does, don't care about MultiCo and enjoy yer time

[paper idol]

Ranked players and competitive players are the real reason this game exists.

We do free marketing, we make countless content videos, casuals got so much attention for a year straight that the comp scene almost completely died and the game nearly died with it.

Casuals are game hoppers and don’t commit to something full time, the second something new and shiny comes out they leave in droves to hop on the next bandwagon

[forest saddle]

you are the founder of cns?

[uneven scroll]

cns

[smoky kestrel]

if we went casual we'd be dead like fragpunk

[fallen quiver]

Ranked player -> casual stomper. That's what s9 is going to be.

[paper idol]

Fragpunk got hella money to pump into itself to somehow keep it “alive”

[vapid dock]

See I think ranked players have this view that casuals are just dudes who hop on for a bit to play whatever game tickles their pickle that day, some of us just dont like ranked but are otherwise just as dedicated and supportive of the game as ranked players

[deft obsidian]

It’s TIMEEE!!! (Also when’s S9 dropping..)

[jolly coral]

one more thing, i would bet that casuals spend more money on the game...but we just dont have the time to grind ranked...

[wanton wadi]

Yeaaah sure thing,

But no.
Remove these sweeties no life, and the game still alive, remove the casual, and the ~500 Ranked Player will not be enough to let the game alive.

[uneven scroll]

can we all just kiss

[white light]

Casual players are gonna be having a great time getting stomped by ranked refugees lol

[vapid dock]

daycare escapees*

[wanton wadi]

No one will see a difference, there already sweetie player in Casual Mode

[smoky kestrel]

I wonder where the money comes from

[paper idol]

Dude you have 500 hours sat playing lobby simulator, with less time actually in game than I have in the practise range alone.

You probably type more in this discord than you do playing the game

[vapid dock]

That means nothing. I still want this game injected into my blood stream and will give it free advertising anytime anyone even says the word "finally"
I havent been this obsessed with a game since I was 14 obsessed with minecraft

[fallen quiver]

Imo it's completely Embark's faults for pitting ranked and casual players against each other time and time again, making bad changes that the other groups blame each other for. Meanwhile Embark are the ones actually pulling the strings in the background... They do some things great but lack of balance in s8? That's not esports fault. Correlation ≠ causation. And now ranked rewards being casual rewards? Again, not casuals fault. Just Embark's.

[vapid dock]

i dont understand the double jeopardy thing, wasnt double boxxing already a thing

[uneven scroll]

yeah, double boxxing was ruining last minute parts of cashout with griefing

[frozen shale]

now the team who doubles the cash NEEDS to cash it or they lose money

[nimble kelp]

im still pissed at ranked

[paper idol]

Same

[uneven scroll]

thats why they added double jeopardy

[smoky kestrel]

if ruby team doubles to grief out 2nd (me) and griefs in shitter team, they will infact be punished for it instead of rewarded

[vapid dock]

Oh so if you double box and it gets stolen then you're fucked?

[glass sigil]

#game-announcements message

im in this!

[fallen quiver]

You double, you stand to lose 50% if you don't get it

[frozen shale]

as long as YOU doubled it yes

[vapid dock]

ok thats based actually

[uneven scroll]

yes, that's the risk you take when double boxxing now

[chilly holly]

half

but also you canjust not start double at all

[ember flame]

They will just go and put the box next to cashout and some fker will put it in

[uneven scroll]

its a really good feature and feels very gameshow-y tbf

[vapid dock]

so wait, if you steal a double boxed cashout and it gets stolen by a different team than the one that started, do you also get punished?

[frozen shale]

yes but you see if I wanted to grief someone by doubling, instead of doubling it myself i can just bring the cashbox to the cashout and leave it close to it, I am pretty sure some stupid light from orange team will double it for me

[fallen quiver]

On the bright side maybe ranked will get like every other possible fix and the game mode will be so overwhelmingly fun that there will be no reason to play anything else

[fallen quiver]

Yes

[uneven scroll]

the major pass will be able to be completed at your own pace

[frozen shale]

also what about placing the cashbox a floor above and demating the floor so it falls into the cashout? does it only count if someone actually plugs it or is it the last one to touch the cashbox

[stiff arch]

Thank god thank you

[vapid dock]

the major pass rewards should have just been twitch drops exclusive to subs that watched the majors

can you deposit from the top? Never tried

i hope we get porcelain skins tbh

Delicate, yet deadly.

[frozen shale]

for this scenario lets imagine the cashout is on its side and you perfectly line up the cashbox with the cashout and demat the floor

I want sheep outfits

we jave porcelain skins in the S9 bp

[uneven scroll]

hell yaur

[vapid dock]

ok yeah if its on its side duh

[ember flame]

Real im just silver

[uneven scroll]

you cant deposit vertically

[frozen shale]

yeah but does the one dematting get the double jeopardy or the one who touched the cashbox last

[vapid dock]

i have a feeling this is gonna end up being a real strat that gets used. I think it should be named

[inner thorn]

I dont know but I think it will be counted as whoever touched the cashbox last

[uneven scroll]

dumb fuck strategy

[ember flame]

Fkerbox

[vapid dock]

oh true, thats a good question

[uneven scroll]

jebait doubling

[paper idol]

Praying

[sinful tundra]

Lets see if the double jeopardy thing will actually leave 4th place where it belongs and not fuck over the ream rightfully in second place

[vapid dock]

dude if its whoever touched it, you could winch the cashout into the box without picking it up and retroactively punish a team for nothing

[sinful tundra]

Some people are winners some people are losers, this game doesnt respect that atm

[smoky kestrel]

the one touching last, the demat is is only affecting the environment

[frozen shale]

or what if no one touches the cashbox at all and someone a light manages to tp it directly into cashout? i have managed to do this several times i am sure it is possible

[uneven scroll]

we gotta make people sink in the shit or shit in the sink...

[nimble kelp]

Yo is this what the finals was in ancient earth?

[smoky kestrel]

the tapping team is the owner

[frozen shale]

okay makes sense. i will come up with more loopholes give me some time

[paper idol]

I mean after playing against lamp, commit, etc in a private match yesterday the only time someone would double is to try and qual / win at the end.

Like it incentivises playing boxes faster and more direct than before where you could just infinitely stagger and then double at the end for free qual

[uneven scroll]

does the finals have iconic iconography like arc does

[smoky kestrel]

Gimme all u got

[uneven scroll]

is this better or worse?

[vapid dock]

Everytime one of yall mentions a well known player

[sinful tundra]

I mean yeah, i just dont know how itll actully change things moving forward so its hard for me to see the vision atm

But if it really drops the amount of doubling for grief, im all in for it

[uneven scroll]

is that a real pic?

[forest saddle]

peace center in cashout when🔥🔥🔥

[vapid dock]

doubt it

[smoky kestrel]

so now its more like, put in first asap to secure first and not get punished?

[vapid dock]

peace center is just a cod map in finals skin

[sinful tundra]

thats already how the game works when youre tied with second place

[paper idol]

Better.

First can’t just double to grief someone out, as they would be at risk of losing 50% of total cash.

It’s essentially a case of “last resort I want to qualify to next round” the only way I see it being a problem is by people qsniping on alts and doubling every box cause there’s no risk for them

[smoky kestrel]

well yeah but... nvm

[paper idol]

Yes.

Play your fucking Cashout

[sinful tundra]

Ranked is healing except theres no diamond to get out of it, w

[uneven scroll]

ooh wow :0 i wonder if this will lead to higher stakes endings... good for spectating

[frozen shale]

couldnt agree more

[nimble kelp]

everytime i look at his arm im thinking of wanting to break twigs

[smoky kestrel]

thats fine, its time my hardstuck 39K ass also gets pretty gemstone skin besides emerald

[vapid dock]

I think it can be said for any mode if you just replace cashout with objective. Powershift players are allergic to the platform

[sinful tundra]

fuck no, you lose you lose, stick with emerald wt warrior

[paper idol]

I mean we had to double last box to win in customs.

Very fun change and so desperately needed

[nimble kelp]

what if 67k rank score automatically makes u ruby

[analog drift]

just cheat like half of the other people

[smoky kestrel]

"you lose you lose" get the fuck outa here its not a skill issue if I get griefed out by a 500 kill acc smurf

[acoustic panther]

tbf most times i play the platform is camped by 3 heavies with miniguns and several turrets kinda hard to get back on it at times lol

[stuck goblet]

Gremlin hard carrying once again

[nova atlas]

chinals killed asia sadly

[chilly holly]

tbh in 25k-15k-15k-5k endgame(which I think very average endgame) still one single cashout can determind ending, this only removes the case when strong 2 team get A, C / B, D and being 33k-33k - 2k-2k endgame

[sinful tundra]

thats part of the game, bub. If you aint ready to beat the whole lobby, you aint ready to be the best

Dont blame me, blame the game for being this way

[smoky kestrel]

Aight time to stop talkin to you

[vapid dock]

gotta learn some crown control. Drop them a holiday gift of glitch nades/canisters and some fire or gas

[paper idol]

I mean I was playing on 150 ping on NA but is what it is

[wild condor]

the p90 isn't getting any nerf?

[uneven scroll]

happy shitscram!

[junior quartz]

it's 50%?

[sinful tundra]

How you gon be in ruby grind and struggling to soloq to diamond 😭

[tulip forge]

a range buff apparently

[acoustic panther]

so the opposite of a nerf lol

[vapid dock]

oh so making the p90 worth using outside of tdm, sweet

[smoky kestrel]

Yeah flame me for everything possible 🔥 🔥 🔥 you go my guy

[wild condor]

do you have the list?

[tranquil valve]

https://tenor.com/view/-gif-4481209

[frozen shale]

yes but in the first case, if the 1st place team doubles it they are guaranteed a qual no matter who cashes out. but now if they get double jeopardy thingy they are at a risk of losing

[tulip forge]

it's just what everyone that played the preview is saying.

we'll have to see what actually makes it into the game when it launches on the 10th

[nimble kelp]

wheres alan sleep?

[chilly holly]

No in first case you don't need to double at all because single vault cashout can determind end result

[vapid dock]

bro is this you? i had a match with you not long ago if so

[forest saddle]

might be a hot take but sometimes i find the randomised map thing stupid. i've been getting these stupid maps i dont want today instead of the good ones that are out there

[swift kindle]

How to fix griefing:
First place in first round gets starting cash at start of round
2nd place gets no coins added
First place in 2nd round ensures you spawn near the vault in the start

[tranquil valve]

Nope my IGN is something else

[vapid dock]

crazy

[frozen shale]

you absolutely need to double in the first case if you are the leading team. two separate cashouts risks you eliminating if you do not get one of them

[smoky kestrel]

you made that in one day??? oml

[wild condor]

thank you

[sour quiver]

wth we can get diamond skins in wt now????

[chilly holly]

hmm didn't thought about that in fast because I'm not actually playing game rn, you are right then, first team should stop vault 6 going in to cashout again but after that you can just grief someone out with 1 full minute of overtime

[tulip forge]

also that was pretty fast to make that artwork, we've only known about that skin for less then 24 hours no?

[slow gyro]

Do You guys know when Embrark’s gonna give us more info about TGMJ2026 ?

[frozen shale]

yes. either they camp vault 6 or double. two different cashouts is bad for them

[vapid dock]

Ok so wait a second, where do the emerald and the purple badges come from then?

[frozen shale]

i would guess in 2026

[smoky kestrel]

Emerald badges is wt, amethyst is milestones

[vapid dock]

milestones? sorry i must not be paying attention outside of my contracts and bp

[smoky kestrel]

Certain amount of cash, kills etc etc

[vapid dock]

OH duh

[smoky kestrel]

^^

[reef garnet]

Small question, do we know if the 8v8 game mode will allow party size of up to 8 players 🤔

[vapid dock]

where does one even go to see the milestones laid out like this

[smoky kestrel]

Wiki is ur best bet
I for example only have Amethyst Cash badge

[sour quiver]

you cant in game

[vapid dock]

30K to 37K 🔥 (K-D)

[reef garnet]

[tardy dirge]

k/d comparisons in a team based game 🥱

[wise herald]

No MGL 8-man 😔

[stable drum]

... where assists aren't even tracked lol

[tardy dirge]

Exactly

[vapid dock]

If i'm being totally honest, my kd would be higher if everyone would STOP STEALING MY KILLS. I cannot tell you how many times I'll chase someone and wittle em down only for my medium team mate to round a corner and pop em giving me the assist

[reef garnet]

Surely they change that, because running 8v8 all clubbed out and coordinated would actually be fun and intense

[opaque belfry]

took me 150 hours to make mine positive

[wise herald]

Same I am an assist machine atp

[smoky kestrel]

like they said, team based game, if the enemy is dead, they are dead and that matters

[daring herald]

The only K/D I focus on is how much has been KasheD out, you get me?

[vapid dock]

I seriously think assists need to be counted based on who did the most damage, not whoever got the kill shot

[frozen shale]

i would much prefer someone with 10 assists than someone who goes off and plays alone and gets 15 kills

[opaque belfry]

kills and deaths dont matter dont measure yourself on that just give your best

They also nerf glitch nade in light?

[opaque belfry]

[vapid dock]

oh no not my child, what did they do?

[finite sail]

It is the worst heavy gadget it needs a buff

[carmine mountain]

People complained a lot

[jolly coral]

how come ?

[vapid dock]

so what changed?

[vivid lily]

They removed 1 charge so it doesn’t instapop mesh and dome

[vivid lily]

[vapid dock]

yet another reason to not play ranked. Cheaters steal your time and staff has to step in to refund it. In casual cheaters do nothing but piss you off and ruin your match

[frozen shale]

this is the line. my left testicle is in the future and my right testicle is in the past

literally wouldve been secured bu tcuz of that i have to que more

If glitch goes to 1 charge then so should goo. It would slow the game down but we gotta try it

what happens if you stand on the international date line? will it be like that one suite life episode?

[opaque belfry]

ranked is 🔥

[white light]

The "i can't see them, they can't see me" strategy never fails 50% of the time

That’s not teaming that’s griefing through.

Teaming is running around as a 6 stack qsniping each other and boosting each other through every round

Teaming is running around as a 6 stack qsniping each other and boosting each other through every round
Yeah thats what they were doing throughout the game
Purple and orange were clearly coordinated and were using meta comps and equipment whereas I had 2 Lights who had both used their tokens 2 minutes in so we were clearly the worse team (as was pink) but purple griefed the team that had been doing better throughout the entire match (and had been helping beforehand) in

[dull charm]

The best ranked has ever been was Terminal Attack Ranked.

Bring back season 3

[violet pond]

TA was fun but idk about it as ranked game mode, if they maintained the game mode it would’ve been worth keeping 🤔

Apex 6 manning "meta" be like:

[hollow basalt]

I wouldve still gained rs even with my shitmates if purple and orange werent teaming so i honestly dont even mind getting shit teammates but there's just no way I can do anything with them against 6 players

[dull charm]

It needed as much fixes as Cashout has gotten all these seasons but would have been a very viable game mode for ranked.

[reef garnet]

True or if it was its own ranked game mode like WT maybe with sapphire skins 🤔

[blazing perch]

Ended TA season with 50k rs and psychosis

[reef garnet]

I used to play a fair bit of TA actually, I found it refreshing, it played a lot differently 🤔

[paper idol]

Using meta loadouts is not any indication of teaming dawg

[violet pond]

yeah more issues than can be counted with tournaments that make it really unfair for anyone playing the game in an honest straightforward way. but of course, devs have their head up their ass so that will never be fixed

[stable drum]

maybe the recoil scripts are the friends we find along the way...

[hollow basalt]

Is helping eachother an indication of teaming or is that still like not an indication

[jolly coral]

TA was the best mode

[dull charm]

I loved terminal attack personally, its been my favorite mode to release in the finals so far out of any other.

[vapid dock]

maybe the chronus was the enemies we made along the way

i personally like to use the new Solara script wby?

[vapid dock]

bro is just making up words now tf. netherlands arent real

[wide birch]

the 93r damage per bullet nerf by itself will bring the weapon back to Pre-S5 status, making the weapon effectively irrelevant

however if this damage per bullet reduction is accompanied by a burst delay reduction, this will bring the weapon to a much healthier state

in my opinion what should be done to the 93R is this:

damage: 26 > 24
burst delay: 0,275 > 0,23

ttk
body:
light: 0,70s
medium: 1,11s
heavy: 1,52s

head:
light: 0,41s
medium: 0,70s
heavy: 1,05s

These changes should be accompanied by a substantial range and recoil nerf

[sharp plaza]

i hate how I cant just unlock whatever I want on the legacy passes

[velvet aspen]

im just tupid
