LETS GOOOOO
OCB YES!!
man my brain is exploding rn
You spelled “well done” wrong
👏
the ball is finally rolling bois!
Looking forward to see THE FINALS EASTER EGG WIKI... when you have described everything, then we will start LEVEL 2... .___.
I wish I had more to show, than getting the 8601 from the egg statues, as those had 0.5% impact on all of this, but at least I have been here, making sure we all were equally insane and feeling unwell ❤️
Exciting!
good job darnoux
I'M BLOWN AWAY guys, tremendous job, I only turn my back for a few hours haha
Geocache
our 3 X's
So its Amsterdam?
William Crossing, Dartmoor and the rise of Letterboxing =https://www.reachthefinals.com/devoncrossing
Galileo, famous stargazer who has a GPS names after him = https://www.reachthefinals.com/galileo
OG Beans, first geocache = https://www.reachthefinals.com/ocb
All tied to Geocaching, modern letterboxing = https://www.reachthefinals.com/geocache?rq=geo
That was so much tougher than it needed to be 
we were brushing up on the answer several times
THANK YOU EMBARK!!! from an older gamer who is kinda bored with gaming I want to say how much I appreciate the puzzles. it keeps me engaged and I love learning new things. I know developing puzzles is tideous. just want to say how much I appreciate it and can't wait for more! thank you for the fun!
The BarrelsBarrelsBarrels having the plain to see 002f really made it feel like the other part was hidden deeply within the image, not just as plainly obvious 😅
Let's enjoy the well deserved break guys 😁
How many figured out the link between the leaning tower of Pisa..?

nani?
not yet, we gotta finish up level 1
we have more details to finish before we can get to level 2
The only time it has been mentioned previously was by @daring bluff #easter-eggs message but I'm not sure if the angle is the key
must be referring to how many times we dropped the ball
the leaning tower is the "/"
Good job @tulip matrix !!
Wait are you talking about the wiki, or is there moe to find in level1?
wait we solved it???
theres more to find in level 1 according to the devs
So the angle was the key, good job @daring bluff of getting that clue right
ohhhh
Nope. My clue messages went unnoticed hehe 🙃
So... rob I'm sorry I gotta ask
So are we continuing to level 2 or are we supposed to find the rest of the clues before we can continue?
Where did we get geocache
I guess a random try, because all the talk of letterboxing etc is basically old school geocaching
@cedar owl just PM me what the answers are for Level 2 so I can shine a little.. been teachingmy ass off so I didn't really get into the hunting spirit
@tulip matrix realised the letterboxing started by William Crossing of Devon is like early geocaching
Oooohhhhhh
Look at what @cedar owl wrote when they dropped the Barrels image: More concept art for you to feast on! .... What's the only eatable item in the image 👁️ 👁️ 💧
oh he wrote that? could u link it somewhere
You can all relax for a while we will let you know when we start Level 2, trust me on that.!
There are still things you have missed, but they are not needed to continue this adventure and puzzle, they are just small fun things, nods and secrets about the game... but you don't need to have them to REACH THE FINALS.!
30 minutes and no Rockhound video yet. O.o somebody needs to explain it all to me 😄
haha.!
Oh believe me, he is writing a script as we speak
❤️
@proud minnow If this isn't tied to any clue, could you please settle our curiousity... Is this mark on Ninja Warriors arm an actual kanji (or chinese character) or is it just squiggles?
@slender lodge, @fallen jasper and @boreal prism (sorry if i missed someone else) have done their best to try to figure it out
i dont think hes gonna answer that haha
i think someone said it translated to bandit or ninja iirc
could be a gameplay thing
hehe... nice try... ._.
I’m still in bed lol. OSPUZE I should get up… 
use text clues to figure out rest of the smaller clues and stuff
Well I just got in bed so no stress ;D
But yes, a video is on the cards for today

Strange...
search on fandom
loll
Starring @tulip matrix and no tea bagging this time! 
Someone with good english/native should write one
I'm gonna get confused between a C and Q
maybe a little teabag?
I reckon we should move it - Fandom is ridiculously un-user friendly.
This is all the messages from Dusty that carried some weight:
More concept art for you to feast on!
Hey all you Shell-lock Holmes's! Looking for clues can be hard work and sometimes you see things that aren't there.....for example, today is not the day of the gameplay reveal.
But nice try! While you wait for the real drop, there are more clues to uncover. Best efforts are needed soon!
<Bean Egg image>
RHB: Smiling? more like crying.
Dusty response: Smiling? more like crying.
Now to see what Mod Blues wrote
is the real drop referring to dropping things from slanted buildings?
This one was subtle...
haha so subtle, NOT!
SPEAK ENGLISH
omg if you knew what he said
you'd ban him 👀
jk jk
soccer talk D:

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/934761175399432202/1018227054237458534/eggun.gif @prisma stump thats you.. victim of your own creation
Oh ok, I thought it was referring to the "stealthy taste" part that was unreadable. My bad 😅
So could someone quickly tell me how you completed the first step? The doc wasn't updated yet
specifically the progress after the third artwork
Sparky, I can recap for you. What clue are you wondering about?
I'm wondering how you got to the level 1 completed website after the barrels artwork. How did geo caching even come about?
So the first! artworks clue Devon Crossing, lead us to William Crossing of Devon, who made Letterboxing (old school geocaching) popular.
All the clues tie together geocaching in their own way, I'm currently writing up a more comprehensable recap, as I often just rambles on
Thanks, who would have thought. We were thinking about trains the entire time.
barrels image probs still has clues
It does for a fact
But they're like side quests xD
Ok so there's still Level 2 at least
And it's the 16th
Hmm
Maybe the devs hid a geocache somewhere that one of us will eventually have to dig up 🤔
Yay we leveled up!
get the shovels boys
I bet the trailer is in an old school tape buried somewhere in the remote forests of Sweden
You will need to go geocaching
seems fun
Slash image drops
- Twitter post has . and ! forming a / in binary
- The image itself had single dots and three dots forming binary, read out to "devon" and "crossing"
- Slash and devon crossing put together as an URL on reachthefinals.com and gave us reachthefinals.com/devoncrossing with a large mysterious X in the middle
- This X marked the spot, we had found a first clue and we were one step closer. (Not that we understood that at the time)
Happy statues drop
- Image manipulation go the numbers 49 53 54 52 48 50 49 53
- Decimal numbers converted into characters gave 15 64 02 15 (1564/02/15) which was Galileos birthday
- Got thrown into the urls right away, but no one had any success.
Happy egg statues drop
- Image manipulation reveals more numbers 56 54 48 49
- Decimal converted to characters gave 8 6 0 1, which gave us iso8601, further concreting that it was infact Galileos birthday we were looking for
- Galileo ideas are thrown around hard, several times it got connected to the GPS system named after the stargazer himself.
- Still no luck finding an URL
Clue Missed - the Leaning Tower of Pisa represented the forward slash for this part
BarrelsBarrelsBarrels drop
- The odd 002f are found immediately on the barrels, it's unicode for /
- A wild, bumpy, rollercoaster like chase to find the hidden clue begins
- Hours upon hours spent by multiple people trying to manipulate the image
- Countless "does this say XYZ" thrown about
- A lot of thinking if the bean can says OG, OC, OQ or something else
Somewhere around here, a question pops up in the chat "Has anyone found this url yet?" and a link to reachthefinals.com/galileo which no longer displays 404 errors
but instead has the X from before.
Celebration of a new url, but no further progress on the barrels image
Embark starts giving hints, it's obvious that we aren't making any progress and disregarding previous ideas
We get an image of Eggward holding the bean can, still no success
An older idea, related to the first clue is revitalized: Devon Crossing is referring to William Crossing of Devon
Embark confirms that this is the case, to make sure we stay on track.
A lot of focus goes onto William and Dartmoor, a place which he wholeheartedly loved.
Letterboxing comes up, which are IRL easter egg hunts
After some hours discussing the topic an eggtective finally solves it: Geocaching
We are presented with YOU ARE AWESOME, LEVEL 1 SOLVED
But a clue is still not solved, what was the URL from BarrelsBarrelsBarrels?
Putting 3 + 7 together led another eggtective to find OCB (Original Can of Beans), geocaching's first trade item, placed in the "Original Stash".
And the third and final (?) url was found /ocb
Is this a good enough recap? Have I missed something of importance, or is my timeline off? 🤔
Yes, yes you are 😌 Tried to recap without going into usernames, as I was writing from memory and not from backtracking the chat
Good work
someone gotta update the doc
I searched - original "tin" of beans - yesterday... so close haha
In the UK we call em tins
Well done everyone!
Tin Hortons
What have we found
Level 1 of the ee is complete if thats what you are asking https://www.reachthefinals.com/geocache
This is great! @tulip matrix and I are going to work on setting up the wiki today and this will help a lot! Along with the Google doc.
there's a wiki already https://the-finals.fandom.com/
do you mean a wiki from wikipedia or fandom wiki?
I think we won't use Fandom - it's awful to use from what I've seen so far
I'm thinking something similar to the BFEE one: https://wiki.bfee.co/index.php?title=Main_Page
BFEE is a community dedicated to discovering & solving easter eggs/ARGs in Battlefield titles.
We use our Discord server as the main platform for collaborating.
Except we'll want to have EEs as a subsection, so we can have sections on maps, weapons and so on
that sounds nice
Yeah, this is our best chance to create one that can become the one-stop for all The Finals knowledge - a fully comprehensive one before the game comes out
You have to finish it tho
Like it has to be THE FINAL one
"This game only has 5 weapons and some easter eggs about beans. The end."
and a cute egg*

Haha
@pure loom when did these reacts happen?
Dusty with the ❌, rob 
completely missed that
Maybe when she posted the other clue?
Ah yes maybe the ❌ 🚫 🚫 was when
Pin and doc updated - #easter-eggs message
Same
you guys totally got it! 👏👏
so.. Easter eggs are very very real
can't wait for LVL2
Sven and Rob reads this perhaps ask and ping them on monday
i dont want them to lowkey give me a clue
Oh for fuck sake it was geocache?
I was going to guess that but didn't bother as work was about to be over lol
when in doubty
geocachey outtie
So now we wait?
I’m glad I was able to help
(By repeating everything everyone else had done already)
yea
morninn
Mornin
Henlo
Happy to hear! 😄
All useful discord links are in the document by @timid solstice , but here's my pinned messages if you'd ever want to write about the crazy theories / guesses that were thrown about 😆
I kinda wish the next easter eggs will be from the playtest
Goodnight, Unscramblers!
Good point I’ll add these to the doc under theories/recaps
Anyone notice that this character has 2 pairs of goggles?
a bit odd
Looks like he took this helmet from our soldier friend
could be
quite the shift in fashion choice if it is the same character
money rain also has magazines from the gun the soldier is using
but running an mp5
I suppose he could just have 2 weapons but I would speculate it means we can loot other players
BF (I think) has cosmetics where there’s an extra set of goggles.
I’d give you my extra set of goggles @tulip matrix
For a fee 
Might have to start calling you Duhcache!!

You don’t recognise the movie?
fifth element!
Yeah I missed that one unfortunately
YouTube rental maybe?
Yea, I brought it up a few days ago #easter-eggs message
Also, I would assume that Moneyrain and Slash is the same character
I would assume that we have only seen 3 characters so far, the three in the statue picture, just in different costumes.
It’s a classic
I think they're customizable
Like they're part of the loadout
That’s also a possibility, just didn’t cross my mind as all fps I play only have skins/costume and not customisable loadouts
1 101 800
Terminator? Y or N
Anyone notice his pink fingernails?
What is good brother
Nm just hunting here haha hbu
Looking through these gta 6 leaks
Normal day
What does 1 101 800 mean?
Go to Tom's server and look at the gta channel or just go on Twitter it's #1 trending
Something related to 1400x787 ig
Oh shit aight aight
Some coins in moneyrain had scratches that looked like it could mean something but I it it might just be random scratches
Somethint about the -90° rotated '10' or 'IO' or it looking like a '25' or '2S' and also there's a number on the helmet '12'
Just multiply the numbers haha
Good morning shell shockers

Yeah ima get back home tonight and finally get the chance to work on it and probs fijd if it's a Q of a C
@timid solstice maybe that


❌
why the x's?
The easter egg hunters are tired and celebrating their victory
And I just walked in
Everybody's ready for Chapter 2? 😏
Level 2 will be eggcellent
Ok so the first X was Devon crossing, the second X was Galileo, how did you guys find the third one?
Yes it will be
Hey check out the doc, all info is there
Oops Will do, are you able to comment where?
Fixed 🙂
it's already pinned!
Yeah was gunna say it is pinned, just buried a little
Arigatou gozaithanks
Oh right
Can't wait for Level 2 to be Kilroy or something
The devs should release info about the game as we complete levels
For instance, the gameplay trailer 😳
Wow didnt expect the finals to look like that
Wait
Im stupid its a gif
Lol. The Felinals
Like a multiplayer competitor to Stray
That actually sounds fun - except for the cat fight noises
The respawn time is 12 hours because your cat likes to sleep between spawns
Glad my stupidity has led to such a grand idea
Legume cinematique
since they said trailer in September I'm just gonna guess the 30th and be happy if they drop it earlier 
I am so hyped 🤩🤩🤩
Probably a good idea!
dev and public branches updated 1 hour ago
rip easter eggs below serbur suggestion
Sometimes I accidentally hit buttons oops
I went to check server suggestions and accidently clicked on Dusty's name and got flashbanged with the power of the sun
The face of missing the Easter Egg hunt
;-;
Lemme check
not of significance, but this is the cart icon on the bottom right
This is new
You could always go there with reachthefinals.com/cart but I don't remember seeing that icon
Not there on mobile tho
yes, isn't showing by default, I did the inspect element thing and removed the "hidden" in the floating-cart object
Yeah but updated website ig
Cant wait to be able to purchase hints if we get stuck
Educated guess based purely on assumptions: Level 2 will start with the gameplay trailer releasing within the next week~
i found level 2
only if u send me -12 swacoins at 002fOCBgEOcAcheogbEANS4953545248504953devonSCrosSInG

but do u think lvl2 is out
9 more days till the gmapely trailer ig
9 in binary is 10001 thus i think its trying to hide another link
so close yet so far
Nine in binary is 1001, you have a zero too many
oh rip i added an extra one
Donate it to a charity
Rotten eggs if we don’t find them fast enough
I think the trailer will be revealed Monday or Tuesday next week, as it will be 1 month right after the Steam announcement and 1 week right after blue's reminder of news coming soon
but idk it's just a guess
lol
all the web assets got touched.. why i don't know
actually nevermind. i got my months mixed up XD
new branch dev2
👀 2 devs get to play together
no no, thats not the number of player
those are versions for the playtest
It was a huh joke
1v1ing over some internal fight probs
👀 1v1 nade throws back to the old cod days
I've posted a vid about the 'Geocache' EE in #🪁┇off-topic-media
Yessssir
"1v1 devon's crossign"
👀 \
Hei! is there any more infos on the levels? how many are there? is it already possible to go to lv2?
We’re still waiting for level two to be announced from what I remember , so now we’re just chilling waiting for the trailer to drop
anticheat!
Unreal game, 90% Easy anti cheat but who knows
Probably
hope steam deck can run it
As I remember EAC and steamdeck/unix systems has a long story
If you ignore potential EAC I think steamdeck should run the game fine at respectable settings
The resolution makes the gpu part fairly undemanding
Isn't EAC a crucial thing to play multiplayer in a game like this?
To bad EAC is the most used and they struggle bussin hard
Isn't anticheat like the last thing to add to a game?
does it mean we are going to play it very soon?
they still have to test it tho ig
Not what I meant 😉
Oh I get it now
I meant that if you just ignore the EAC issues, the game itself will probably run fine
No and no
ok
All of this could've already been tested in their private branches that we can't observe
For all we know..
hard playtest right now 👀
YO
👀rip I am not playing
What did you search for on SteamDB to find this?
under linked apps on The Finals DB page
go to steamdb, search The Finals and it is under linked apps tab
👀
Thanks, I think I was just searching the top 100

🤣

hmm this server seems buggy 🪰
Bruh I legit slapped my phone trying to get the bug off my screen 💀
lol
lets go


I could think that those 43 players are actually shooting the new trailer 🤔
🤔 nah developers have their own in house build that's off-steam they work on. If they're doing it on steam they're testing the networking and steam functions (invite friends, party up etc) most likely.
👍
👍
dev3 already
yea
So public is the build we'll play right?
Probably, yes
Public build is probably the stable build. It might get updated day before playtest
i still feel like the x’s on the barrels have got to mean something
Xd
Xoxo
And dev1 is a clone of public
Likely to reproduce and troubleshoot problems or bugs reported by the players in the live version
Dev2 perhaps QA testing build for release candidates
And dev3 for active development
Broadly speaking
wait so can someone explain to me what these dev things are?
different versions of the game
oh so playtesting?
in this case different versions of the playtest build
ahhh ok thank you!
np
did u ever have to open a steam game's 'beta' tabs and type some random stuff in to access the 'beta' or 'testing' install of the game?
its kinda like that, except it's hidden inside the steam's servers and only accessed with a specific password
aughh you fool
it's age of wonders
ive never played that game
it's the only time I tried downloading it
Age of Eggs
You need to level up. Post a few chats and you’ll get there quick.
thanks
you got me there for 1sec ^clap clap` 😄
I’ll help - where did you hear about the game?
Ah, true. Like many of us, I guess.
and i heard from arc raiders, because i play battlefield since 1942 😄
i know, i have seen your videos 😉
Hehe
like damn, your doing this full time now 👍
Well, part time. But fully aiming to be full time as soon as I can.
Do what makes you happy. Life rule #1
well lets hope the finals and arc raiders become very succesfull so your channel can be the go to channel on youtube
That would be good for all of us. With some of the most experienced game makers around we stand a good chance of that.
i have never been part of easter egg hunts in battlefield, but have seen them all on youtube. barely done any myself in game. it realy gets the community engaged these eggs 😄

Yeah, it’s a great way for the devs to connect with the community.
i remeber, the movie "ready player one" was also full of eastereggs
. if you have seen the movie then you know when you die you lose all your coins
, just like in the finals.
I need to watch that! Is it good?
yes its on netflix
David Fincher is a genius
Yes, and Se7en
we had the same problem last Saturday, "Knives out" was not on Norwegian Netflix. but the roommate had it on Czechia Netflix
like the hole movie "Ready player one" is about the very first Easter egg
in video game history. cant be a coincidence
I think I’ve actually watched RPO - but a while ago
I’ll rewatch it soon
Rural Popes Online 
🤣
It’s a small club
I like Easter Eggs because they break the “4th wall” and that can happen directly or very subtly.
so its like in movies, when the actors suddenly turn into the camera and starts talking to the audience..?
Yeah, that’s called breaking the 4th wall, because one wall in the room is the camera
Magnum PI was one of the first overt instances
I think
I noticed that rhythm too, but couldn’t work out what it might be. It’s highly unlikely to be anything that breaks copyright.
Might just be an “inspired by” thing

Have we looked into the audio? I know the new doom music had pentagrams and stuff hidden in it when you changed it to an imiage pr something
ok
I bet the trailer will be the start of level 2
yeah i think too
Kinda wish level 1 wouldve given us the trailer date though
👀 level 2 is us playing
Level 3 is the game release date 😩
L
another playtest happening rn
Sunday night in Sweden. 
I envy them
yep, trailer and playtest very soon
i got too much time on my hands so I could do so much playtesting 🙂
If I didn't know yall were working so hard I would've probably been a lot more annoying by now xD
👀0 patience.
something like that
0
👀what if we skipped the most Important part???
The egg is a 0

The order of the emotes...????
100111
😱😱😱😱
Anyways.. Back to work I go

13 playing rn 😩
while we just watching
I forgot I did this and got excited for a sec
how tf did u jebait urself smh my head
Nothing slips by you guys huh. 👀
😔
next wek itll be us
How is the game going Emiliee 👀
It's going good the game is really fun to play in my opinion. 🙂
🙂


easter eggward 
Who is the top player in the studio?
👀
We have quite a few good player but probably @teal scaffold in my opinion. ( I've might just have disappointed of so many people 🫥 )
How many kills did you get?
Pass on that question. 🙂
👀
👀
Hahaha way to put pressure on me 🤣
also, I'm clearly better than him 🤣
I'm trying to savor this time before I'll get stomped on by real players 😅
Looking forward to play with y'all 🙂 Good vibes ahead I can feel it
Haha who knows
Maybe we’ll become the next best toxic community
As long as there is no hate on the devs of course
We can’t all be FFXIV
I said a naughty word.. but I have a lala with serious game.
I am really due for a new game, everything I wanted (i.e. darktide and hogwarts legacy) got delayed
FH5 has some serious content starvation (race game).. I own all but two cars (which will be added in the next two weeks)
And HUNT is merely teasing a new boss apparently
I wonder if they added any easter eggs for that 👀
Darktide isn't so far by now, really eager to play it, I loved both Vermintide
People that tends to be the most welcoming and kind are those I can't help but respect. Those are the best hoomans ❤️
We’ll see
I meant the darktide game releasing haha
But yeah the community obviously will have good eggs and bad eggs
Not even punning here haha
It'll have Pov-eggs that's a thing for sure...and I'm definitely punning here 👀
You’re one of those faberge eggs
Google it
Yes
Clearly the highest rank of all
@cold forum new ranking system? 👀
Ospuze Faberge LE
Uuh, nobody beats the Bengles in our office 😅
👀 just give me a chance coach. Let me in
okay but only if you put @teal scaffold in his place
I'll eat him up and spit him out. Just for you
👀easy I use a flight stick
or 🎮
Everyone underestimates the flight stick
What does it mean to be a pro esporter but not officially? 😄
Are you like the stig but for gaming? forgive the boomer reference
👀stig... Such an old name
I don’t think the trailer itself isn’t done.. I think they need to pull the trigger on the playtest date that is probably featured in the trailer
Pa pa paaaaa
He plays esports just to donate the earnings to charity, he drinks a lot of vegan mountain dew.... IT'S THE STIG
👀
the legend of gamer stig of course
Is that a challenge?
legend says he only shows up in one match out of every 1000 matches
Just gonna say, I know his playstyle.. lmk if you want some tips
rakakakaktaktakaka then go bapapapa-apapapapapa
🤔Jesus... These tips are intense
Oh you'll see, it'll all make sense
🧐will wait impatiently as possible
go bazoom-boom then smackepew! gg
absolutely

😂
same expression my therapist does every time I tell them anything
I already know someone's gonna overanalyze that text above haha
Hahaha
When the therapist needs a therapist
calling @pure loom
oh god no
I'm just high on caffeine don't mind me 😂
Gdayy rockhound heeeere
oh wow, we moved quickly to threats I see
👀yes kitty Kat threats of love
Have a break
Have a kitty kat
Yes absolutely. Yep. Yeah. Oh, yeah dude.
I guess so.
I have a Xiaomi Mi Gaming monitor at home, and a WIDE monitor at work.
They are both very nice
4 yes’s in this message, which means the trailer must come out in 4 days!
Ssssssh! 🤫 Don't tell them my secrets! 🙈
hmm something up with the letter B?
busybusybusy
barrelsbarrelsbarrels
3 things just like 3 statues lol idk maybe im reading into it too much
if you zoom into the mask
and if you saturate it to the max
curve it like you've never done before
change the HUE to something
and make the color hex 275:255:255
you can see that
0927 which is today
||this a joke btw||

They kinda had us in the first half not gonna lie
some great things are cooking! 
fried eggs 
I've been on vacation from the discord since lvl1 was completed, for my mental sanity, what's this and have I missed something?
No news basically 🙂 We waiting for something substantial this week though!
Ok, thanks for confirming @opaque zenith @prisma stump! But what mask is Swa speaking of then 🤔
@mortal ivy
Ah damnit, I got fooled! And it's not even april 
@slender lodge is exploiting our weaknesses in these difficult times... 😏
I pressed enter to quickly it seems 🤷 Meant Juman (edited now)
If you aren't currently following @reachthefinals, you probably should. Thank me later.
Content creator playtests?
maybe yes, i think friday will be the day for the trailer and playtest, there will be the weekend just after
I hope not... I want to play not watch. Watching makes me forget
I am extra disappointed because I've been trying to find a link to the Kitsune mask lol
Its happening
YOU WERE RIGHT
Wow Swa knew all along
Inside job 🤔🕵️♀️
New sponsor?
New factions?
Maybe yeah
👀 i was literally just over here digging for new sponsors
got a glue gun from prey super stoked to throw that on someone
Looks like you have to collects coins and deliver them to the yellow post boxes thingies, kinda like plunder in warzone
Also, the maps are also just simulations
Dog with the Finals logo on his hat
You see them spawn into the simulation, and the red the finals ring appears to be the dome á la Hunger Games style
Embark logo
ive been waiting SO long for a new game to play, and this is it!
Here's a clearer image
i assume is not a "hero" shooter and we can create our character
Here's all the random logos i've spotted so far
teams/factions maybe?
Probably
The top right one is on the persons helmet on the first page of the website
in the polygon article it says hero builder not hero shooter
Two additional logos
Yes, you are right! And the lower right one is on Moneyrains clothes
Lmao it's just a one trailer and people already finding easter eggs? 😂
Yes
This is so much more than we had going from the artwork, and those had easter eggs 🤷
DIHO WRECKER?
Get your hot coins at Le Coin Cafe
Bias wrecker
the sheer amount of coins is gonna fry my 1650
Oh yeah you are right
nice video @pure loom
Embark Studios have released the full gameplay trailer for THE FINALS and announced a Closed Alpha playtest starting on September 29th! In this video, I explain what the game is, give you the playtest start and end dates and times, and provide my full frame-by-frame breakdown and analysis of the gameplay trailer for this upcoming free-to-play FP...
My god he knew all along
Thanks!
29 SEP CLOSE ALPHA
When you die a little coloured statue is placed where you died
no scrambled egg on death? unsubbed
does asia has a server for itself ?
Well their publisher is asian so I would assume so
true
These weird spikes and lines are visible at the end of the pre-alpha trailer if you look at the audio tracks in a spectrogram view, Can't seem to figure out what they mean... if they even mean anything
they were also present at the end of the teaser trailer
it was also in the teaser
By the way - I haven't really had a chance to look for any puzzle easter eggs in the trailer - the breakdown video took long enough as it was! Anyhow - starting points might be the weird symbols (if they're not all sponsor logos), and also maybe the numbers on the game clock seen on the arena surround.
egg monster alert maybe :V
the thingy on extraction i think is a turret
same as the one hidden in the container
Yeah, I agree
That makes the most sense
Worth looking at, I reckon. I'm too tired to do it right now hehe
so more than 8 minutes round?
I found another one but its almost fully covered
Well at one point in the trailer the timer goes down by a second so I think they're Hour:Minutes:Seconds
So maybe theyre not the round timer?
That's what makes me wonder if they're an easter egg - either that or they just needed the extra time to make the trailer shots
Why not just have an option to freeze the timer?
Nailed it.
As far as I know (and I was in the recordings) there's nothing hidden in the timers. We just needed moar time!
It's a good trailer though, really nicely paced.
Ha! The director's like "move it people! We only got 8 minutes for this shot - EVERYONE RUN!!!"
Chaos in that direction, STAT!
Damn so my timer hunting was for nothing 🥲
seriously, that trailer is eyeball-mosh! 🙂
I appreciated it.
"Just move cHaOtiCaLLy!"
Hey, that's how I got my start in the industry. It's an ART!
hehe
i can still follow the main chat, not too bad
I love the energy in here ❤️
Only the OGs remember the Easter egg channel hijinks
I usually don't follow games that close but Embark has been really good with communicating with the community so I'm here for it.
❤️
I do not follow games at all, I generally tend to be late to the party of even knowing that they exist. But my colleague who knows someone at Embark, said that this game might be for me and I'm glad that he did! Really looks like it could take the fps world by storm
It's kinda cute seeing the Embark people talk in here to avoid the crowd in game chat
Just trying to vibe lol
I get that completely lol
I see Rob is living up to the title of the neverending typer
Shh let him type in peace
Partikel is correct... The timer is nothing you should focus on, sometimes we play with unlimited time.. so don't fall down that rabbit hole... ._.
Thank you for confirming that we should focus on SOMETHING 😉
My efforts have been in vain 
HAHAHA
We got him
The design and brand of the game is so pleasing. I'm in love with the aesthetics. Kudo's to the art department!
The GC people doesn't know how good we have it ☺️
If it's not the timer, then surely the weird symbols - they can't all be sponsor motifs!
xD
9h my ruckilsjkwkw
2 days?
Wgatttt
Jwhwhwuwi
I'm so happy lmao I'm light headed
Time to hunt
Yesssir
Yup
Monday
Tuesday!
I just want to casually point out to the Embark team, that I am the person who break games. I try whatever possible to go out of bounds, glitch into walls/items and otherwise not play the intended way.... Just saying 😎
hope more newbie like me doesnt take over dis channel too xD
So if you see my name in the closed testing drawer, please pick it 😉 😉 😉
Smooothly done
#secretChatrequsted :v like eggwardsden or someing xD
Join the hunt!
where is da hunt
Sure is 🫡
hey if we're putting qualifications on the table i was in QA for the better part of a year, keep an eye out for my name in that drawer too 😉
Check out the pinned channels!
So far, we've finished level 1
anyone notice the flame thrower yet?
Last frame of the trailer right?
The game made me feel like that bank heist gamemode from hard-line where you gotta secure those finals boxes and put them into a safe and keep that safe safe ig? And then maybe it's like 3v3v3v3..
It is 4teams of 3 yes.
👀 i can't tell how many teams are playing in a match but looks like a trio game for sure
Oh there's gameplay info?
man thiss gonnaaaa beeee a freaaaking maddneesss
blood money? yeah that was awesome
the game show setting is awesome, they can do a whole lot with it
And it's tournament style. So first 8 minutes all 4 teams play, after that the team with the least coins are eliminated and the three others continue
Man the game looks so fucking crisp I feel like I can see the 4th dimension cuz of how good it looks
Rockhound was invited to a content creator vmeet yesterday and has shared info in his video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TjMvIUwqzY
Embark Studios have released the full gameplay trailer for THE FINALS and announced a Closed Alpha playtest starting on September 29th! In this video, I explain what the game is, give you the playtest start and end dates and times, and provide my full frame-by-frame breakdown and analysis of the gameplay trailer for this upcoming free-to-play FP...
He owns a time machine some say
Well, he got the info and footage yesterday, so he had a day to fix it haha
or maybe is part of day and night cycle systeme (if there is one)
wtf why didn't @pure loom tell me> i thought we were bros
I think so too
There's definitely a night time
But idk if the arena is a simulation
we don't talk about that
It went over 8 minutes to film the trailer
Oh even the skybox then?
the whole game is a game.. lol
Hahahah
It is, you can see them "spawn in" and the edge of the arena is the timer and red ring in the sky
Fair
Ahhhhh
Ammm goonna make some fanart art and hope embark gonna hire meeeee xD
Well then that makes sense
honestly.. the gameplay mode they showed.. seems to be a good set up for a comp game
A game within a game!!
like mech eggward
Or they just shut down the lights :0
Yes, and weather changes (just like we could tell from screenshots/gifs in the drive folder/on steam)
xD jk like that will ever happen
inception lvl stuff xD
Of course it can. You just need to do it 😌
prob no day/night cycles actively in match
but day/night depending on the match and its prob random
So many embark Devs are online :0
and you can probably take out lights and stuff at night to make it darker
thank for the encouragement
might try making some stuff when i get the time
There's also the puddles at night in this gif
havent seen that much stuff about the game soo just Eggward it is. gonna make a mech for him or somting like dat
the random grapple from players is kind of funny and clearly not a finished
hope me potato laptop can run it ;-;
I can't load the image :l
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ArH1UJwWQvwwoQ1YtTu84ymIZbBA7zCp here's the drive folder
There's always some kind of edge of playing on low specs anyway 🤷
man the kill to coins animation so satisfying
yeah ;-;
And lowers your fps by 50%
xDD
Everytime you kill
You hurt your pc too
and ur EGGs xD
If you die in the game someone elses PC dies with you
Lmaoo
win win if u kill me i will take u with me xD
Team deathmatch irl
yeah u kill other to kill ur self xD
and i killed the chat ;-;
🪙


The "Glue Gun" as @pure loom referred it to, seems to be some sort of Expanding Insulation Foam machine/pistol/canister that just creates really big balls
You monster
Prey 2017 the Arena shooter
Creates big balls hmm
Big balls have killed the chat
There's only one real name to this gun that I won't refer to 👀
Rammstein had one they used to tour with that sprayed the crowd with white "foam"
yea 😂
We did cheat to give us more time when recording. But those times still don't look quite right to me. I know nothing about any Easter eggs though.
@sudden sparrow welcome new sprout! Fun to see that you made your way to our cozy hangout!
Little thing i notice in the trailer, all weapons has their ironsight, no scope or red dot here
What if the times are indeed the easter egg but they dont want us to figure out the puzzle quickly!?
3D chess
I just wanna enter le coin cafe
🤌
Did they ever scope in
No?
There is one part when they scope in. But the footage is all recorded without the HUD obviously
once or twice but it was more like a zoom in hip fire
Nonono, I refuse to build a player/dev relationship based on lies
But everything is built on lies.. 😈
Hmmm haha imagine the game doesn't have afs
Ads
there was a scope in with pistol
Pistol and one rifle did I think
https://youtu.be/uxloMQgfoYI?t=59 here's a scope in shot

Nice grenade launcher

well u have a man literally diving trough a building so
The arenas are relatively small, vehicles woukdn't make sense
no vechicles needed
xD sorry lowkey one i willl make a better one maybe
They were there in an earlier tease that's why I asked :))
They seem to be the size of an overwatch koth map, but with more verticality
Does a wrecking ball count as a vehicle?
1:00-1:01
Also, green button on the right, which mean mechanism 🙂
I don't know if there will be stuff like door mechanics or if it will just have open pathways
in the first presentation of "project discovery" (aka the finales) you can see vehicles
Things change
Wild skin right here
doesn 't every game have a zebra print?
Tiger Tooth omg
cya bros its night here
gnite redoy!
not on the suppressor 😎
u can call me Rajoan
Thx
Am I the only one not only looking at the bike?
Cya
the car?
nah
If you know what I mean you know what I mean
That huge cake? Kind of hard to see but I like it
lmaooooo
only darnoux can think of things like this haha
i think you should add a banana after the car
Funny but lacking eggward. 2/10.
The flying koopa with the camera lmao
but its made by darkoux. 10/10
Wow thats far too high without Eggward
Ok so 12/20
yess
The balloons obviously have different effects. The green one is deadly/toxic, the red one could potentially be the explosion icon and the pink might be the expanding foam(?)
oh wait wait
is this game a one-life per round game?
cuz since its extraction based (kinda)
Oh my god darnoux you better make an angry birds meme of this quickly
Am I the only one seeing this
Yuh I agree
The team with the least coins get eliminated after 8 mins. Feels unfair if it's also a one life game, or? 🤔
Thats not high enough for an Egg lover such as myself
You lose coins upon death, so that's the punishment
i was unsure of the deets :p
yoooo we're in sync!
It sounds like it's a good idea to keep the teams constantly fighting to get more coins
Korean map confirmed
Also 8 minutes seems pretty long for a 1 life round
