the event could be a floor is lava

[agile badger]

When is the Greek season coming? Let’s do a map somewhere in Crete, incorporate Greek mythology skins and what not, the Minoan bull head, etc

Infinite possibilities

[faint crest]

Please embark add map with post soviet buildings, I'm begging you!

[night iron]

A social hub for the finals would be so cool. Similar to the HQ from cod ww2. It would have a shop, practice range, 1v1 duel arena(other players in the hub can spectate from above), limited events/wheelspins and challenges area, a fan art wall, plenty of hang out areas, aswell as a spot to sign with a sponsor.

It would be cool if the hub was decorated with ads from the seasons sponsors and depending which sponsor is in the lead they would have more advertising space in the hub making you more immersed in the competition.

Speaking of immersion it would be cool if the game started up on the press play/insert coin screen and then you immediately spawn into the hub. You would still have a quick menu for easy and quick access to everything. I think this would really make you feel immersed in the world of the finals 🙂

Voice chat too👀

[upper moth]

Philippines map should have a bunch of jeepney drivers you have to dodge
joke aside, a map in the BGC would be a decently cool location

[raw peak]

So what I’m hearing is helicopters in Kyoto

[icy stirrup]

Please embark add map with post soviet buildings, I'm begging you!

[runic forge]

The CCO is fighting for helicopters on Seoul and probably other maps so not unlikely. not sure if it would make sense on kyoto tho

[harsh creek]

naples near the volcano mount vesuvius would go hard

[marble socket]

unironically just, update the current maps, s4, 5, and 7 all need more map variants, and bring back vegas tripwires variant as a normal variant, id love to see how it'd impact gameplay, i think it'd be worth considering atleast in casual modes like quick cash

[winged tide]

<@&1012034066876473384> is this talking about removing the entire gameshow event or just a bug on las vegas, i've had hackout on Kyoto when during the CNS stop

[dreamy bronze]

I believe it only happened on Kyoto? But yes, it shouldn't have happened at all after the Hackout WT stop ended

[winged tide]

the post said las vegas, maybe they just messed up the blog post. was sad seeing that though i liked having new WT events

[dreamy bronze]

I meant last vegas, sorry!

I need to sleep more

[winged tide]

go get some rest you deserve it LOL

@hardy sleet
This is not nonsense, this actually happened.

I helped design that game's aim-assist for spaceships and was a

• ICT Evocati Group tester (1 of 12)
• Evocati Strike Group tester (1 of 100)
• Evocati Goup tester (1 of 4000)

I have a pretty good idea of what I'm talking about.

[sage cape]

☝️ 🤓

[agile badger]

There should be a map in Greece, I recommend Crete for its history like the palace of Knossos.

There could be God events, divine intervention, trial of the gods like:
Zeus throwing down lightning bolts randomly.
Hades setting parts of the map on fire
Poseidon can flood certain areas of the map with tidal waves.

The skins could be themed around each god. Staple weapons like:
Zeus’ lightning bolt
Poseidon’s trident
Apollo’s bow
Athena’s aegis (riot shield)

Armor sets like:
Hermes’ winged sandals for Light classes
Hephaestus’ molten-forged plating for Heavies
A Minotaur suit
Hercules outfit and his lion helm
Hades helm of darkness
Spartan warrior

Other random ideas:
Power shift platform becomes a chariot with Pegasus like horses attached to it.
Other maps like mount olympus, Atlantis, hades underworld

I hope they don't just turn everything into concrete for the unhacked version

[raven rampart]

day 261 of begging embark to add a epic and cool medieval map with a buncha people

ping @sturdy mirage to be added to the list!!!

[sturdy mirage]

Sorry, I’ve fallen asleep every time I usually do it. I NEED TO KEEP FOCUSING

SLEEP IS FOR IDIOTS
MEDIEVAL MAP IS FOR FINALISTS

Day 261 of asking for a medieval map with @clear gull @spark sage @earnest hornet and 221 other people. @ me and I’ll add you to the roster.

[normal cypress]

Kyoto could disappear tomorrow and the world would be a better place

[night iron]

I would love a map with this unique mechanic where reality shifts. The layout of the map would be the same but visually it would completely shift. For example, a map set in New York where mid game reality will shift from a modern day NYC to an apocalyptic version of NYC with overgrown buildings n stuff and then back to modern day. I just think visually it would be a very cool mechanic for any map.

[boreal pond]

That would be cool. Would buildings and layouts change or just the aesthetic

[night iron]

It would just be the aesthetic and visual, the layout of the map would be the exact same through shifts 🙂

[faint lark]

A medieval map does not fit the finals

[worn kite]

How come? We have futuristic maps, we have Kyoto (even if Kyoto sucks)

[faint lark]

There are no medieval weapons

[worn kite]

Spear could have a lance skin, hammer could have a longsword skin (or even sword stuck in a stone). And even if that hasn't happened recently, we can get new weapons with every season after all.

And isn't bow Medieval enough?

[void fossil]

piss off with that attitude

medieval would be super duper dope

ur not the art director

[soft bridge]

Light sword could have a short sword skin and the throwing knives could have a medieval dagger skin

[soft bridge]

And we already have a medieval skin (squire skin) but a long sword skin would look good too

[gentle portal]

We literally have medieval Kyoto

[soft bridge]

European medieval

[peak hawk]

What if we got a WW1 map like the Meuse Argonne or Verdun?

[soft bridge]

That doesn’t really the vibe of the finals

Especially this season

[jagged siren]

“__________ doesn’t fit the vibe of the finals” as if any one of you could exactly describe what that “vibe” is considering we have cosmetics ranging from bigfoot to robots…..aliens and samurai……UWU weebs and block ops tactical gear……There is no set “vibe”. The vibe, is what you make out of it.

[peak hawk]

See?

[jaunty lily]

Embark should write a code that if you dont have a mic, your game automatically unistalls if you try to play ranked

[sharp turtle]

^^ 🔥

[soft bridge]

The vibe is quirky, weird, chaotic

All those together = The Finals

Ww1 does really fit any of those does it?

Doesn’t*

Thank you!

[hoary wigeon]

sometimes im tryna be nonchalant and mysterious tho

[wild pollen]

can someone help me find the location of brands in maps

[subtle rock]

We need the Neubrandenburg or Malbork castle as a map

[bitter cradle]

that would be so cool, or kind of like greenland senery with it aswell, idk

[trail fable]

excuse me do we not literally have 15th century kyoto as a map

[glad brook]

I hate that map with passion

[cosmic willow]

no its good

i think its not bad

and its a really enjoyable map on powershift

bernal on the other hand is burning my eyes

and makes me play worse

[frail pond]

shimi i do not disagree with your sentiments

[simple widget]

kyoto is an underrated map

[frail pond]

Youre trolling

[craggy geyser]

why does kyoto have a casino?

[subtle rock]

I hate nozomi so much yes it is the most gorgeous map in the entire game but the spawns are fucking awful and the layout on the vaiiya side and the lil island is fucking HORRIBLE it's so open and shit bro everytime I get it I just hit this emote

Hi

[tawny flame]

Play enough more of the more competitive gamemodes (wt and ranked) and youll understand why ppl dont like it

[forest sierra]

Kyoto has the worst optimization

[twin totem]

I don't think eclipse shade stuff and all the military skins are any of those three
ww1 could fit the game if implemented well enough

[soft bridge]

Those are connected to only modern military

[sturdy mirage]

[runic forge]

An IKEA map could be split into multiple sponsor sections.
For example an Alfa Acta section that has vintage furniture

[onyx kelp]

Yea but an IKEA map would only have a one way system so if enemies are behind you could turn around

[sand spruce]

when can we get a snow map?

[runic forge]

Snow maps are active during winter

[languid pulsar]

I want it too we need medival map

[peak hawk]

What if we got a WW1 map like Gallipoli or the Meuse Argonne?

Embark got devs who worked on BF1 so I do believe it would not be an extremely arduous endeavor

[rough tangle]

Reminder of how HYPE a medieval season could be
Knights UNITE

[lone cypress]

ggs

[peak hawk]

What if we had Shuri Castle from COD Waw?

[rough tangle]

you mean, Kyoto v2?

[peak hawk]

I don't care

[rough tangle]

not hating on ur comment, but it's a bad suggestion, we need new stuff, no more recolors of the same map, like they did for Vegas

[whole elm]

what if they added times square as a map

[peak hawk]

What about Meuse Argonne 1917 or Bloody Nose ridge, Peleliu 1944

[rough tangle]

yeeee dystopian maps of wars would be sick
but there need to be cool buildings everywhere, or there's not point of a flat map
I'm all for a grim vibes map tho

[peak hawk]

Bloody nose ridge is a coral formation on Peleliu island, no buildings barring the occasional bunker but you do got a shitton of ridges, caves, ravines and trees

[runic forge]

How about Louvain Library 1914

[rough tangle]

Sounds very cool, we got enough futuristic maps/arenas
maps in the past would be hella dope, especially with historical accurate stuff

[rough tangle]

the idea is good, but for embark would be impossible to code cave destruction etc

[peak hawk]

Then you can just code them to cave in at the entrance

[bitter crown]

A map with underground stuff would be cool, like a city with a subway station that connects three points.

[bitter crown]

Also, I'm still hoping we can get a half-modern half-medieval map

Although a full medieval map sounds just as cool

[sturdy mirage]

Day 267 of asking for a medieval map with @clear gull @spark sage @earnest hornet and 223 other people. @ me and I’ll add you to the roster.

[bitter crown]

If we got a medieval map, would it be in a castle or in a village of some sort?
Maybe both?

[rare wing]

i hope we get mines for the eventual medieval map

structured like monacos construction site, a maze of support beams, walls and floors with lots of flank routes underground
maybe suspended stalactites that deal heavy environmental damage

[supple idol]

Hi y'all, I'm struggling to learn the maps just by playing since there's always so much going on. It looks like there's no way to just jump in a private match solo and explore?!?! I think I saw someone say you can do that with one other player? Is that correct?
Also, anyone have good resources for learning the maps? (i.e. video tours)

[delicate gust]

Don’t have any good resources, but private matches only require two people to start, so that could be a good place to look

[supple idol]

Thanks! It's pretty surprising that embark doesn't let you just explore the maps, esp in such an objective based game with such dynamic/complex maps! 🤷

[stuck mulch]

So many high ping I can’t play 🤯

[trim loom]

@sturdy mirage add me to that roster

[echo shale]

Hopefully one day we can filter which maps we can play lol

[west vortex]

fortune worst map but its clsoe because kyoto exists

[placid oasis]

right

[chilly vessel]

Pete

[bitter crown]

Oh, that sounds awesome.
I really want to see what they can do with the map layouts, my hopes for a full medieval map were for it to be half castle and half village, but now I want a mine in there as well.

[lilac horizon]

remove kyoto basements and suspended structures and the map is fixed

[west vortex]

i love getting 4fps

fortune sucks more tho

so whatever

[lilac horizon]

yeah, i feel like i get kyoto every other game tho

cl40 suspended structures every time😭

[winter pebble]

We need a map in greece. Would be gas

[dreamy osprey]

Add me into your numbers too!! A mediaeval map would be epic!!!

[thick moth]

Why does everyone hate Kyoto

Personally I hate Monte Carlo

[raven spruce]

I love Monte Carlo!

[bitter crown]

I love all the maps except maybe sandy Vegas.
It's not even that bad, just preference.

[sturdy pike]

imagine a map inside an airplane hanger with two longhauler jets in it and maze of stuff lying around for TDM ✈️

[harsh creek]

Add me into the roster pls thnx

[rough tangle]

dope idea, but i think they will save these types of map for when vehicles will be available. They said vehicles would come in the game during a AMA.

game is lacking military style maps, in a shooter i personally think it is needed

[foggy topaz]

This game isn’t made for “military style maps”

Cityscapes are what this game excels at. Give us New York, Chicago, Austin, etc.

[serene moss]

It would be nice to make a snowy map. Like it could be in the mountain in a ski resort or smth

[fallow tree]

Give us a skyscraper map- exclusive to tournament modes, each round would be 3 floors of sponsors (round one could be holtow, dissun, engimo, and round two could be iseult, ospuze, Alfa acta, etc),with the final round being a massive penthouse floor themed around multico. Aside from the multico floor, each floor could be a random sponsor each game. I think this could be really cool, having a preset floor for each sponsor and then each game the map is different but still recognizable

[rough tangle]

i think it definitely is actually
but what we need rn is like you said, big city, high sky scapers, something just like Nazomi/Citadel but in IRL places, we got too many virtual places

[delicate hedge]

I’ve always supported the idea of a highly vertical map where it’s all contained in a single giant skyscraper, but the randomized floors and MultiCo penthouse at the top is the best version I’ve heard yet! I love how distinct that would be stylistically

[mellow oasis]

id personally love a map with tons of height variation. would be pretty cool to have a bunch of tall buildings to fight in and around. imagine one of the buildings collapses onto another while your whole team is inside actively fighting. thatd be so cool

[crisp stratus]

hi

[timid charm]

I really like the TDM map that’s a dense forest with two towers and a long zip line connecting one side of the map to the other, and I would love to see that level theming in a cashout map. Most cashout maps seem to be cityscapes with the semi-exception of Kyoto so it would be kind of cool to have a map with a different flavor that could change the approach to fighting a bit. This could also potentially be a bad idea though because I’ve noticed every Kyoto match seems to end in people fighting over the cashout points in the bombed out basement of each building and that seems to happen when you’re not in skyscrapers so.

[runic forge]

A Dissun themed "PEACE Center" (The TDM forest map) would be cool
The buildings could look more industrial and the trees (if there even are any) could all be dead

[lone wave]

how many maps?

[real wadi]

🌲 Can we get the forest TDM map in other modes too?

The forest map in TDM is one of the most interesting in the game. The natural cover, lighting, and layout make it stand out from the usual urban environments.

Would be great to see it added to modes like 💼 Cashout

[lyric flare]

[rough tangle]

🏰 Something I want to see when the medieval season drops! 🏰

A limited time gamemode that features a brand new map in medieval times. Every single class are playable and possess different functions and skins in the gamemode:

• Light: The rogue class, would excel at sneaking past ennemies and/or stop ennemies from afar. 🗡️**/** 🏹 sp: cloak
• Medium: The knight class, would excel at dueling and/or supporting. ⚔️**/ **💚 sp: healing beam
• Heavy: The berseker class, would excel at destruction and/or defense. 💥 **/**🛡️ sp: Hook

The gamemode would be to have two different castles, on each sides (would be cool to have a samurai side and a knight side, something kind of what was done with Nazomi/Citadel, could be cool but not necessary). The objective would be to invade eachother's side and get to the VIP/King to murder him. 👑

Each side would have breaching gadgets to be able to get to their target, but also have defensive gadgets to rebuild the castle and slow ennemies down.
In terms of balancing this, you would obviously remove the guns from this game mode and just allow weapons that fits the timeframe of the event (Bow, spear, swords, hammer, throwing knives, dagger...). Although giving each kings a gun sounds actually fun and easier to balance. Also it would mean that many gadgets would be restricted, but that's not a bad thing, as we have already canons in the game (Monaco). Also The Finals being The Finals it's very fast paced and restricting alot of movement abilites would slow the gamemode down but at the same time allowing it to be WAY more strategic, which sounds actually refreshing and different.

[rough tangle]

If anyone that likes the idea could post this on #👂┇game-feedback 😇 I would appreciate, as I still got cooldown from chat

[harsh creek]

Add me to thy petition

[neon scroll]

a huge castle would be a sick medieval map. lights climbing and spiderman swinging around the outside, fights in long corridors, setting fire to tapestries of scotty, courtyards with windows surrounding for outside fights and potential ambushes, hiding around huge load-bearing pillars, blowing up said load-bearing pillars to cause a huge collapse, every single part of the map would be awesome to play in (lock people in a dungeon)

(imagine being able to set fire to the tapestries and banners and it would slowly spread across)

[rough tangle]

definitely, they HAVE to do this
but just as an introduction of when that map releases, it would be nice to have specific weapons, gadgets and cosmetics, so it really feels medieval for a while. Like no guns or robots for a few days.

And then after that we get that map across all modes again 🙂

[chrome flare]

Gg

[soft bridge]

W idea

[uneven pier]

Why can some people post photos and others cannot

[civic willow]

ooooooh a tdm map based in a factory would be insane

a ltm if they fix melee weapons and potentially add more would be perfect for this idea ngl

[modest stag]

Yeah nerf it back down

[neon scroll]

Nerf it back down huh? I don't know if you play melee or not, but no one who doesn't gets to claim it's no skill, let alone overtuned. Also, the only thing they did was make the attack actually hit as it should (a wide slashing hit)

[timid charm]

theme park map where one (or more than one) of the cash outs are on ‘ride platforms’ that operate similarly to the floating platform that circles the outside of Kyoto

We need fall guys type gameplay in the finals

The maps are already bright and colorful. Would fit the aesthetic

[haughty olive]

[abstract mauve]

what

[smoky bay]

great

[south folio]

I hope they add some type of PvE mode

5 player zombie/alien/robot survival with the destruction mechanics would go crazy

When are we getting a deathmatch map that's just 40 cranes suspended in the void

I want grapple with 0 cool down so I can spiderman that shit

[rough tangle]

agree but i think they said coding npc into this game is very hard due to destruction

Atleast an infection gamemode could be great too, 9 mediums with revolver vs 1 light sword, and the light has to infect everyone
Surely thats easy to do, and sounds very fun

[inland spade]

I think an underground map, like a catacomb or sewer system, would be cool. Like the underground section from Mirror's Edge.

[floral temple]

blerp

[rough tangle]

hella good idea for a limited time event

[spare axle]

U should remove citadel and Sys and focus on maps more like skyway stadium, Monaco, Kyoto, Seoul, Vegas. The sys one is the best out of citadel and western map the western map is also lowkey trash too flat, if I were to make the next map it would be a revine that drops down to a river with wooden rope bridges and such and you can add swimming or just have that water act as the void

Think Indiana jones and the temple of doom

That's already a thing

https://www.reddit.com/r/thefinals/comments/1m0qyns/embark_ama_twitch_stream_transcript_my_notes/

Found it. The VOD is no longer UP due to how Twitch stores VODS but there's also a video by the same person making a quick summary of that post. The PVE part is on 6:56

They said that they added the new AI to the pratice range dummies to teach new players and provide The Finals with new ways to interact with players. Leaning towards possible PVE, essentially

[spare axle]

I’m done if they get rid of Kyoto

[jagged siren]

I’m wanting a map that’s just multiple floors/layers of the heavy hitters arena. Make it a giant skyscraper(SINGULAR….lol) Where the entire outside is open, leaving you either vulnerable to flanks or falling. Put a crane at the very top. Riddle the building with elevators, air ducts to crawl through. Complete verticality. Add long corridors and some open lobbies for spacial combat. Introduce maybe a new sponsor and this is their HQ? I’m just riffing.

How would yall fix the situation with the B point on Seoul?

Once the bridge and crane are gone it's pretty much a dice roll to make it to the other side without the defending team absolutely annihilating the attackers.

"Well, just use a Gateway"
What if we don't have one?

Anyways, that point is the bane of my existence.

Horse map

[uneven pier]

Thanks everybody. I’ve been thinking about that one for a while. The map would have so much potential. To match the idea of the rest of the finals maps I think I would change the name to Pompeii instead of Vesuvius. A lava variant would be really cool though and give us a feel that we haven’t seen in a map yet. I’ve seen a lot about medieval map.. what variants might be good for that one?

[rough tangle]

I think it's really hard to come up with map variants, without it being too disruptive of how the map plays out. For example a flood sounds cool! But at the same it's a bad idea, people already hate the small portion of water in Kyoto 😅 I'm not against it, but I could see why it wouldn't work well.

The default version of the medieval map could feel actually lived in and peaceful — the castle full of royalty furniture, food on the royal table, knights’ armor lining the corridors… The town’s market would be full of shops and goods, with the town's iconic bridge and fountain well maintained.

The map variant could be after a plague hit the town: abandoned homes, blood scriptures on the walls, the surrounding forest burned, the castle empty and robbed of many valuable items, etc.

I also thought about a wartorn version where enemies have left siege weapons and catapults in the town and destroyed the castle — but maybe we leave that destruction to the players, hehe.

I think the plague variant could be great if executed well, cuz it also gives room to fun easter eggs:

• A villager who tried to find a cure with a hidden lab inside his house
• Traceable bloodstains/arrows that lead somewhere (in the castle's dungeons for exmple)
• The sewers where the disease first broke out

[toxic flare]

All the sweet Roman Empire skins that would come with it too 🙏

[uneven pier]

That makes sense. Really cool ideas! Even if you had a flooded version perhaps the map is vaulted up higher and you die when you fall, similar to how a skyway stadium or Nozami/citadel could play with places you fall off the map. But I totally understand the difficulty in that.

The plague idea is a good one!

[uneven pier]

They already have working cannons on Monaco. Catapults would be sick. Then catapult players off the map

[rough tangle]

facts, would be so fire. Potential is just insane 😭

ai slop but ngl, the best idea for an ancient map I've ever heard

[uneven pier]

Ofc it is ai but just a visual for the idea.. I don’t work for embark, but embark can make it good.

[tame vine]

Would a collection of desert islands be good with like an abandoned navy base and two massive ships that are crashed on the island you could go on, one ship would be like a cargo ship and the other one would be like and aircraft carrier

And maybe like there could be a volcano like the Vesuvius map

[still cloak]

And I like Monaco too

[errant cradle]

Nozomi

[errant cradle]

The maps all flow very well (all except Kyoto). There’s always a stairway, zip line, or exit point nearby if you’re in a building. Try to memorize where all the key points like jump pads, zip lines, drop-offs, cashouts, etc are so you know where to go when in a tight spot. Ultimately just play the game and you’ll learn the maps 😉

[smoky oak]

ok, thanks.

Seoul

We need a helicopter map

[lethal cobalt]

Yep

[proud robin]

Venice

[humble cargo]

They should add that Alfa acta map from last season as a full map instead of just tdm

[dreamy cairn]

Don't think they will... Give this weight to one sponsor

[sinful maple]

Make Stockolm Gamla Stan into a map 👀

[humble cargo]

New York City, or some other American city with shop interiors skyscrapers etc?

Maybe a map inspired by arc raiders, I feel like they could add some lore to that one

Medieval themed castle/European forest map, a lot of people in the weapon suggestions channel were calling for more medieval cosmetics or just a full on season.

[warm torrent]

Kyoto feels so weird to learn

very verticle in an annoying way

esp CA to play on as heavy

[undone horizon]

Helicopter map would be sick

Seoul is my favorite map

I feel like a medieval map would be badass

possibilities are endless.

[wanton dew]

I love almost all of Tokyo,i really hate the water spots though

[cloud stump]

I kinda like it. It´s a very different style than the others. Less vertical

[fast cipher]

whats yalls favorite map?

[dusky cape]

idk the favorite but I hate the SYS map

[robust harness]

Same

especially for modes like powershift and you have triple light snipers picking each other up at the top of the building

[undone horizon]

I LIKE MAPS

[forest sage]

That’s what I’ve been saying

[crystal dock]

fog is dumb I should be able to see across the map if there isnt any solid objects blocking my view.

[obtuse tinsel]

s k i l l i s s u e

[crystal dock]

idk but the fog is gone now

[obtuse tinsel]

[brittle robin]

Yeah, that hydro dam map would make for a really cool Finals map

[shy halo]

a map in a place similar to the Olympus or Athenes... I see it...

[edgy panther]

I like it

[shy halo]

ty!!

[tame vine]

I think Prague would be a good map because the building look like the houses in Monico and there is a very tall tower and a church near the tower

[shy halo]

talking bout places with towering heights... place a map in Dubai

[tame vine]

Would that not be too high

Would a water park themed map be good

[shy halo]

yeah if we could actually swim and dive

[next radish]

i like the sound of a water park map

could be quite open and tall

lots of huge slides and tunnels to traverse on

[runic forge]

A map with A LOT of verticality could be interesting.
Like it's only 1-3 skyscrapers but it takes up a lot of the height of the buildings .
Special platforms, girders and elevators are indestructible to still be able to traverse the map after destruction.

A water park would also be cool, but it should probably have swimming and diving like Omega said

[polar surge]

a theme park with rides that move by which can be destroyed would be sick

[hidden garden]

citadel is my favourite map ngl

[polar surge]

yeh such a great addition

[runic forge]

Nozomi is waaaaay better

[hidden garden]

i think its the best looking map as well ngl

(I am a vaiiya glazer)

[polar surge]

[hidden garden]

[humble cargo]

Fancy Italian map with a gala, art show, fashion show, etc? Like the final map from that one hit man game with the winery

[viral minnow]

a water/amusement theme park map would be fire

[hushed pewter]

an indian city would be an interesting map

[arctic hatch]

What do you mean maps

[clever gyro]

please add more chances for kyoto to spawn

[bright marsh]

They need a whole medieval type map

[ruby token]

We need Toronto, the CN tower should be destructible, and the aquarium should be part of the map too, aswell as the rogers center

Even a Canada themed map in the forest near a lake would be cool, with like a bunch of cabins and stuff

[cobalt trail]

MODS imma need yall to do something bout this.

can we get some Rome architecture up in the Finals.

[pseudo minnow]

The CN Tower being destructible makes it sound like a request for a Battlefield Levolution event

[ruby token]

It would just be absolute chaos

Which makes it more memorable and fun

[pseudo minnow]

Add Siege of Shanghai and the Cashout is at the top of the tower

[bright glen]

somme cod reddem work ??

[radiant grove]

A mars map could be cool

[hushed skiff]

Okay hear me out for tdm would a Alcatraz style map be valid explain why not

[glossy lily]

hear me out: dust 2

[agile gull]

whats the best smallest map for 1v1

[runic forge]

PEACE
It's a TDM map

[sick sable]

On Monaco some objects have an inaccurate rectangular hitbox. So you cant angle a jump pad on a cylinder shape because it has a rectangular hitbox

[mortal onyx]

I just want a medieval themed map or a fully enclosed cave map where the only thing that is lighting up the map are colorful light crystals that are found all over the map and above the entire map, actually you could also make the map into like a city or like a sunken medieval kingdom that’s all destroyed and the buildings have lots of holes and even the castle would have secret passages if you destroy a certain part of the wall or underneath the throne.

[wispy mortar]

Right! I have been posting that for months!

[rough tangle]

I wish they would stop with the glitchy maps, kinda had enough now. Syshorizon, nazomi... They are still nice, but I want them to tap into history and realism.

You can do so many headglitching in rooftops, map has objectives too separate so you can get constantly third partied, laggy.

How do we feel about a medieval castle as a map, I feel like we have Kyoto we deserve a knight themed season Y’know

[late marsh]

Lmao kyoto looks nice but plays shite.

[rough tangle]

We do! Many of us wants it, I think it's coming. I doubt it'll be for S8 as it's for Majors, so prob they will release something in the lines of military with bf or cod vibes, so it fills the competitive aspect.
But it will 100% come! Too many people asking it. And the possibilities of event would be fire!!

[eternal goblet]

I second this

[near knoll]

Sounds great, but what if it becomes the next kyoto

[turbid ingot]

snipe snipe

[mortal onyx]

Well there’s only one way to find out.

[mortal onyx]

Also to add to my idea a little the barrels that are found around the map should be redesigned specifically for this map and should be made into runes like for example the healing rune, the explosive rune, the gas rune, and the pyro rune each of them would look like a big bright colorful crystal or rock with a symbol representing what type of rune it is

[uneven pier]

[sacred spindle]

Must be a typo right?

8000 days is a good amount of years

I don’t reckon that they’d think the game will survive that long

[tame vine]

It 3 years

[tame vine]

I hope it survives that long

[sacred spindle]

8900 days is not 3 years my dude 😭

More like 20ish years, you know there’s only 365 days in a year….. right?

[tame vine]

Oh yeah just Googled it

[sacred spindle]

If this game survives 3 or more years I’d be surprised, hate to says it but gaming is slowly dying :/

[tame vine]

Noooooooo

[rotund cradle]

isn't it the opposite rn? new seasons have been getting slightly more traction and alot of people saying the big youtuber Moist Critical is bringing in more attention, at least in this past 2 weeks i think

[sacred spindle]

I said that gaming is dying

[rotund cradle]

gaming as a whole is a bold one to say, whats the reasoning

[sacred spindle]

Not this game.. but with that said if this game lasts 3 years without falling off and has a lower player count than current I’d be very surprised

[dusky helm]

In what sense? The number of gamers rises steadily.

[sacred spindle]

Well, it’s a generational thing, gaming became a craze, everyone rushed to it, we’re now seeing the cons and negatives like addiction, there’s also esports rinsing games for all their core values just take Rainbow Six Siege for example and also giving their input for changes which a lot of the changes are better for the professionals and not casual gamers, you’ve also got generational maturity younger people are becoming more mature at a younger age and not playing games as religiously as we used to, you’ve also got subscriptions rinsing the gaming community… battle passes, Xbox live, ps live, all that bs. You’ve also got the rising costs of games and games with a higher cost but no substance,

[rotund cradle]

thats what i was thinking too

[sacred spindle]

You’ve got layoffs left, right and centre and declining revenue on top of all this

[dusky helm]

Gaming in general has only gotten cheaper over time... inflation may skew perception but the hardware and software costs in general have both gone down, and for all those in a developing nation especially so

[sacred spindle]

Criticism is a huge factor there’s a lot of half decent games that don’t get any traction because of bad reviews and such

[sturdy stratus]

AAA gaming has been dying for a while,

If you actually look at indies and smaller teams, then gaming is doing better than ever

[sacred spindle]

Indie gaming is on the rise

So is PC, console is on decline and so are overall video game and video game-associated sales

[rotund cradle]

so with the whole 'rinsing' thing, i kinda get what you mean but not all games appease to the sweaty/esports scenes, i honestly quit fps games as a whole since BO3, then i was introduced to a free game called The Finals, i think gaming is still gonna be alive for a good while from unemployed, addicted people and just people who have a general amount of free time, so anyone whos in school still ig, also this game makes transaction purchase feel like you don't need to, with the whole inflation thing, thats kinda just common with tariffs and people will lean more towards whats cheap or free, not exactly gonna stop consumer mindsets either, look at Nintendo and the Switch 2 xD

i don't see gaming dying until China type laws are implemented everywhere

[sacred spindle]

Switch 2 was in reality a huge failure, it’s an outdated model marked up to be “new”

[sacred spindle]

cough cough THE UK cough cough

Pray for me please 🙏🏼

[dusky helm]

In the UK specifically apparently the total revenue of the industry is still growing significantly

[sacred spindle]

Because there was so much hype, the amount of call-backs, recalls whatever you wanna call them was pretty insane for a handheld

The new Xbox handheld is miles better than the switch 2

[dusky helm]

so, this is really to say that the mobile gaming industry is not doing well?

which apparently is quite a huge deal, but perhaps a bit different to what I think most readers would assume

[sacred spindle]

Mobile gaming has always been meh

[rotund cradle]

rq tho, think about how many people actually care, and then think about the consumers who get it just because they can, whether bc they are mindless in buying or getting it for their kid, they overnumber the people who nitpick, thats why Nintendo is still on top as much as i hate that

[old storm]

I have been begging for a medieval or high fantasy season since season 3. It would be so cool to have a bunch of For Honor and DnD style fits and skins with a huge castle map and magical abilities or medieval weapons.

[half dirge]

Each class gets a new weapon that’s some kind of spell??

[rough tangle]

Yes! Loved season 3 because it was the closest we got to that.
But it didn't feel very japanese/samurai (if that makes sense)

Would be epic to have a limited event, to introduce the new medieval map with castles etc. But also only locked medieval cosmetics and weapons (no guns, just bow/sword/spear...) for the immersion you know.
Seeing anime or robots in the medieval map would kind of ruin it for me. So at first a limited event for the immersion and discovery of the map.

Then the full release of the map in every mode. (Also hide the crowd during the event, and only give the arena crowd back when the event is over)
That's the move they should do imo.

[rough tangle]

That would be nice to see, but maybe only as skins (pyro grenade: fire ball ; for example)

Day 286 of asking for a medieval map with @clear gull @spark sage @earnest hornet and 230 other people. @ me and I’ll add you to the roster.

[wintry dawn]

bro thats insane that youve actually asking for that long

[karmic grotto]

That’s just gonna be another Kyoto bruh

[abstract saffron]

What's wrong with Kyoto

[brittle robin]

No way a medieval map is not gonna happen. It's just a question of when? Next season? The season after? I'm p sure it takes them a year to make a full map

[rough tangle]

Listen to this man Embark!

I've been saying it alot but with the release of a new map, it would be nice to have them in a limited time event at first, with locked weapons and skins specific to that map's timeframe (medieval -> knights armors, healing beam, swords, bows etc... ; steampunk -> engineer fits, turret, revolvers, hammers etc...). Remove the surrounding arena and announcers during the limited time gamemode, for immersion. And after a couple of days, the map can be released for all the regular modes, in the same arena vibes.
I feel like we need to chill a bit about all the sponsor things, arena vibes and announcers. It's very cool and part of the lore ofc, but bit redundant. With all the possibilities that The Finals has, it's a shame they don't utilize it more. It has always been kind of this arena (S4 Fortune stadium, S5 Las Vegas but arena...), even Bernal in Mexico, from time to time, can feel more arena-ry than an actual city with all those paintings and sponsors everywhere.

Like @Shadowz, imo Kyoto was the best map in that regard, felt very immersive, and that's what made me wanna buy the ninja outfit in the store, and also start maining the throwing knives. -- so maybe this strategy can help boost sales aswell (=incentivizing certain weapons and gameplays with a theme, and sell them in the store to fit in the newsetting)
Season 7 was a banger tho, much more theme focused, and developped (lore wise). Really enjoyed it. It's not my favorite theme but still 10/10.

But also, I'm pretty sure it would benefit for new players especially, as I'm sure no new players understand the lore of the game.
Creating different stuff and intriguing maps will spark interest among new players for sure, if they see not only arenas constantly. But creative and interesting maps: Nazomi/Citadel was a great step in that direction imo.

Hope you will cook for us in S8, it's a great opportunity to shine, with all the spotlight we've gotten with Charlie 😄

[cinder stag]

It definitely doesn’t take them a year if there’s a new map every season

[brittle robin]

It definitely does, they are just working on multiple maps at once, each at different stages of the development pipeline.

I know for a fact that's how long it takes on average fit Overwatch maps, they've said so in dev updates. I'm making an assumption with The Finals, but I'd bet it's around the same.

I've also made a few community maps for TF2, and I can tell you from experience that just the level design without art takes a month or two

[gentle portal]

true but kyoto looks nice its just that embark cant design their game correctly so theres shitty spawns and cashout locations

[grim hornet]

Test xp

[primal rampart]

Yeah Kyoto is either decent to play on or absolutely horrible. My best guess is lack of destruction and too many flat open areas.

[willow arch]

chat is nighttime syshorizon sppose to have fog so thick u can only see 20m

[merry elk]

Its one of the special events on the map i think, i played on it earlier and the announcers cslled out the fog at the start

[willow arch]

man thats real annoying :( cant even see the sillouete of the building thats literally across the street

This guy seems legit

[cinder stag]

okay yeah, but monaco was the first map ever, and nozomi/citadel was the most recent one, so doesnt this kinda prove my point that they know what theyre doing by now?

[runic lynx]

i think it would be awesome if they had a season centered around pirates, and had a map either at a ship yard or out on the ocean with ropes to swing between ships and stuff. obviously would be a melee players playground lol. just thinking about it now and how cool it would be

[stone cloak]

would be cool yeah 😄

[warm elk]

[summer panther]

everyone hates on kyoto but yk the map we should be hating on? seoul

(I'm bad)

[errant cradle]

Does anyone else literally just leave every Kyoto match? Or is it just me? 😄

(To be perfectly honest I don't mind sticking around for Kyoto in Power Shift, but I refuse to play it in cashout modes or even TDM)

Also I feel like the game punishes me for doing this, I've been put into as many as seven Kyoto matches in a row after leaving and re-queuing repeatedly before finally getting something different

[rough tangle]

From my understanding, if you leave ur current game and requeue instantly, you get back to the same game (without pressing the reconnect button).
So wait a little, so that your spot gets taken. Then you queue.

[errant cradle]

I have noticed that as well, but I'm talking about separate matches, not even loading back into the same one

[pastel niche]

@sturdy mirage Hey I saw your making a petition for a medieval map and that would be sick count me in. I also have some ideas for a medieval themed season, like weapons such as the spear or sword getting a joust skin or the CB-01 getting musket skin. I think if we get enough people your idea could become a reality.

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cats-kitten-kitty-meow-gif-3571483220338519630

[shy halo]

Map idea: Athens 2065. Lemme explain: It'll feature the acropolis with the temple and all the ancient greek arquitecture, but with some futuristic details that fit the "THE FINALS" vibe, such as banners hanging from colums where the top player appears (As usual), as well as some colors from the sponsors of the season in several areas. (Ospuze, Holtow, Dissun, Iseul-t, maybe Vaiiya or CNS). The reason why i'd call it "Athens 2065" is because, along with the ancient greek architecture, there will be some hints and things of technology (like holograms floating above the acropoli/temple, just like in Fortune stadium). The events would apply the same as in the rest of the maps... All this is just from my imagination plus things/assets i've seen while playing the game.

[half tartan]

This map idea would be really cool

[long stone]

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****

Im not a super competitive player and don’t mind Kyoto that much and it definitely isn’t my least favorite so could someone pls explain why everyone seems to hate it?

[warped sierra]

Kyoto is the tower typa type map

Hi :))

[elder tide]

While the map looks good visually, the flow of the map and design from a gameplay standpoint is awful and completely different every single other map. It is incredibly open, making melee weapons borderline unusable in high level lobbies and sight lines are wide open for snipers to reign from above.

Also it just doesn’t flow very well when getting around like nozomi citadel or skyway stadium

[half dirge]

Yeh I have noticed that where rotates feel kinda off and a bit slower

Can u give source??? link or something
U just made me so hyped out of nothing!!!

That would be bad

[runic forge]

#easter-eggs message is this good?

[runic forge]

They've said in Q&As that a map creator is hard to make bcs the destruction mechanics are baked into the geometry and it'd be technically hard to do.

I wouldn't rule it out to get it one day, but that would be in the FAAAR future

[stone crane]

[wispy mortar]

Amusement park map please!

I think itd be cool to see a map that is space stationed themed, with certain areas being low gravity

[runic sierra]

Midevil map please

Add trebuchet

[rough tangle]

I hope you're ready to keep your pace through another season! 😄

Imo unlikely medieval for the season of Major... unfortunately 🙁

[rare wing]

would be kinda cool if a cashout in a castle could be under siege
but it also made me think of the horrors that is pushing seoul hospital out in the open

[split latch]

This with a fantasy themed season. Add a firestaff for heavy, frost wand or electric wand for light, and poision bombs for medium. Open to changes for these weapons but I think it'd be cool to have like a more element vs element weapon roster.

[rough tangle]

That would be so cool, I'm pretty confident to say that will happen sooner or later. And devs are aware of their past mistakes, dw.
If they do something with that similar layout, there will be alternative routes: underground sewages, more barricades or even some kind of escort vehicle? (They said vehicle would eventually come)
So who knows

[rare wing]

sewages sound awesome, but im a bit worried gas, and aoe weapons might become a balance problem
wonder how theyre gonna balance it if they do stuff like this

id love to see some kind of cave with mines, and somewhat weak supports where you can actually use guns to destroy walls, not just explosives

[hushed skiff]

Okay hear me out would an Pompeii map be good during the eruption be good why do explain

Not*

Or if there was an event happening every 5 minutes

[split latch]

I've been thinking recently that the tdm map that's in the forest could make a good map for other modes.

1. Expand the map maybe add a couple more peaks to it and add random bases / cabins / camp sites / caves around the map where cashout stations could go.
2. Add geysers instead of world pads that work like world pads.
3. Add event called "It spreads" or something where a wildfire starts spreading on parts of the map.
   I think something like this could add some cool gameplay strategies with trying to manage getting to a cashout while doging trees and contestants at the same time

[hushed skiff]

Icl you've a great point mate

[split latch]

We could even implement a volcano like your map idea and have that be the event

[hushed skiff]

Or what theme would you like for next season

[split latch]

I think a midevil or fantasy like what @sturdy mirage is talking about would be cool. We've already done fudal japan so why not?

[hushed skiff]

Personally if they did a medieval season where would be set if irl maybe Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany

???

[rare wing]

im not giving up hope its fictional

[split latch]

That or take us to any crusades era castle like how for kyoto we go back to the 1500's

[rough tangle]

I don't think those would be a problem. The problem with the hospital in Seoul is that u dont have many alternative routes to the hospital.
The crane and the bridge are both destroyable which leaves you only with only one option: the long ahh flat street with no cover.

This makes certain weapons op. (Pike etc...)

If you know what you're opponent is running, and having the choice of what route you should take to push the cashout. It won't make anything op.
Like long or short in CS2, you don't push long when ennemies has AWP. To put it simply.

[rough tangle]

#👂┇game-feedback message

I mean, something fictional would probably be more hype. And better to play on.

[upbeat vector]

sup guys

[rare wing]

Yeah

And like, i wouldnt be suprised if lore wise, kyoto had ninjas and everything due to movies etc.

There is a lot of fantastical medieval content out there (like dnd), so it wouldnt be suprising if the ai lets some of that slip after the 2nd cns reset

Fantastical stuff just generally has a lot more options
Not just for cosmetics with wizards, clerics, dwarfs, goblins etc.
Also for the map
A flying castle
Magical gateways
Stationary map bound traps (like the removed vegas varient, just reworked)

[split latch]

I kinda miss the original vegas that had the turrets...

[rare wing]

They did rework part of the alarm system into citadel if im not mistaken

Maybe they could add a tripwire trap or something on a certain path to an advantagious position

And since it isnt on an objective, it doesnt give the defending team a major advantage

Like spike traps in the wall that chip you for 100dmg
If you dont watch out

Tho making it trap specific could be problematic, since it only impacts new players and knowledgeable people will just not be hit

But who knows, maybe they will find/found a solution

[split latch]

They could potentially seed the traps like they do for random events. Just be like "Monaco | Day | Clear | Low Gravity | Turrets" and have random turrets around the map

I just think having the traps added extra variables for players to have to take into account.

[rare wing]

Speaking of turrets, i could totally see a skin line thats artificer stone constructs with runes on them
For the turret, guns, etc
They could really lean into it
(Tho these would likely be high tier)

That 1 mayan mgl skin gets pretty close to what i thinking of

Also with hammerhead ned now, its not far off to think we might get a dragon too

I know they talked about it, but idk to what extend

Imagine a dragon just flying over and burning stuff

[zealous sedge]

Yo dose anyones PC crash on the new map

[rare wing]

Imagine winched a cashout into a trapped area lol

[rare wing]

That specifically might be cool if the runes glow less the more you shoot (or the less hp terry has)
Glowing strong again after a reload

[split latch]

It would be so great, and I totally agree with the runes. With the finals I'm sure we'll see a little bit of everything as the game progresses so I'm sure they'll ad some sort of line

[split latch]

No, do you know when exactly the crash happens is there like a specific action or spot it happens?

[zealous sedge]

Like more to half way into 1st round

[split latch]

That makes me think it could be that the game is using too much vram or overloading your cpu then. If your graphics are on high I'd tone them down a little and see if that helps. If not or if they are already low I'd try revalidating your files first, then try looking at my response in #bug-discussion where I show how to clear your drivers cache with nvidia.

[warped sierra]

The Japan map is my fav map of all entire time ngl

[split latch]

I love the design but I hate how laggy it is, I think if embark toned down the bambu on the map and drop some of the excess particles it'd be great

[native niche]

I placed The Finals logo on the west coast of the Isle of man on wplace if you want to say hi or spread some love for our game.

Hmmm… I guess it could work

[rare wing]

might be interesting if its part and part
main living quarters having gravity, and connecting tubes not
but how they would make that work, no idea

For sure I feel like they could set them in the floor level of buildings and just have a random modifier to determine which turrets get activated each map.

[north fulcrum]

Any leaks on the S8 maps? Any idea what it might be?

[rare wing]

No leaks so far afaik

But last time we had cns they were flushed out, and an ai created the next season [lore wise]
Which resulted in kyoto and june noting that its "not the 22nd century version"

So it stands to reason theyre gonna do it again

Couple that with the coming melee improvements and it doesnt seem unlikely that were going to get a medieval season
Especially with how many people been asking for it for a while

All speculation tho

[rough tangle]

When you put it like that, it makes actually a lot of sense.

I imagine tho that, as the major will happen, and that we will prob have lots of eyes for this event. That Embark will rather play the safe route and make a military/cod style map, to be taken seriously as a competitive fps. Especially with the BF6 hype going around. Imo that sounds to me like the smarter move to do.

But I really do hope medieval season will happen. And you gave me hope ❤️ and hey who knows, medieval season could have way more potential and appeal to more people than a bland cod replicated map.
Anyway they cooked good for S7 so we will be surprised either way 🙂

[rare wing]

it might sound more sensible
but this also isnt your average shooter
the finals does things differently
and showing around "hey, look at us, were doing weird stuff, on fun maps with unique weapons" kind of sets the presence perfectly

and yeah, nozomi is awesome, i love it

Either they don’t do the Eiffel Tower and upset a bunch of people or spend a bunch of time basically reworking the entire damage system to not make it super laggy when some guy with a sledgehammer destroys all four legs

sys$horizon - sniper/cl-40 (long range)
kyoto - swords/cl-40 (mid range)

that’s would be gas, you should do stockholm bc that’s where embark is based

[neat vortex]

ok yea thats solid honestly. What do you recommend for Bernal?

its like the map has some decent long range but because of all the insane amount of rooms its also kind close range

[mint forge]

for bernal i run either melee (spear, sword, rapier etc.) or basically copy the blastoff event build (cl-40, jump pad, any grenade, zip line, any spec). those two work pretty well but ngl vernal is tough to plan for. demat is good for bypassing the confusing rooms tho

Orf land mascot horror 🔪🩸

No one knows devisation better than ORF

I'll def make art soon

Once I level up enough

I'll be able to post all my art!!!

I will try experiment with some 3d models today

[shell smelt]

I think it is time to step out of the "Urban Environment" for starters 🧐 .
Who doesn't want to battle on a SHIP, on a MAUNTAIN, post-ww2 CAVES and LARGE UNDERGROUND TUNNELS or just a impressive FORREST and climb trees?

[earnest hornet]

Ah okay fair enough . I don't think I ever saw him taking a brake .
And he's back again

[wicked fossil]

a massive carrier that could be sunk would go hard

[loud ledge]

the alfa acta tdm map was so neat & refreshing for this reason, other than that the only nature we have is kyoto

wrong @ oops

[loud ledge]

also this is an AMAZING idea omg

[half dirge]

Am I the only one that wishes skyway stadium’s base map was high rise?

[frozen ice]

Seoul under construction is the best version of the map

[sacred shore]

No medieval era it doesn’t make any sense but renaissance era would fit perfectly. Take us to Venice and add water mechanics, still get “knights”, masks, armor, carnivals etc

Pls ad more time besed maps like a viking village

[runic forge]

any era makes sense in a fully virtual game show setting

Kyoto is the best map out of all of them. I wish every map was Kyoto and I wish I'd play every match on Kyoto

[scarlet nebula]

AMUSEMENT PARK MAP PLEASE

That whould be fun

I think a map inspired by the changi aurport could be interesting

[rare wing]

That reminds me of a very specific vacation place i used to go to

It was like a jungle esq swim park

It could work with caves spread around, hidden maintainance pathways, restaurants, an outside area with bungalows

But im worried a map like that might play a bit too much like kyoto, with everyone hiding in between plants or shooting people out in the open...

There was also a cool area where you could swim alongside fish on the other side of some glass, maybe that could be something

One big chamber with a cashout next to multiple small chambers all filled with some small decoration to hide behind/use for outplaying
Seperated by some thick class that is destroyed in 2-3 bullets

Maybe everythikg can be accessed from an upper maintainance area?

Would probably need to be drained unless they want to add water higher than knee deep

Or make the water obviously fake with energy waves, the the fish are like the nozomi whale holograms

[wooden lagoon]

[tacit cypress]

Why is it that when someone mentioned an airport in the context of The Finals, I immediately picture 3 Heavies exiting an elevator with M60s, shooting into a crowd of Lights? 💀

[next nest]

"And remember, no lights"

[inland rampart]

What about a liminal spaces CNS map? One where doors lead to new environments instead of the expected rooms? There could be 1 central room connecting everything with M.C. Esher style architecture. Gravity would be all askew and letting you run up walls on to the ceiling and such.

Perhaps have 6 rooms that connect to this central space each with its own gravity direction and ecosystem

Boost pads would let players bounce up onto the ceiling or walls in the central room and looking out the windows would show something more like a city scape. Going through any door would lead to a new environment kind of like that movie House II.

How so?

[hazy brook]

Need Ancient Athens map with Acropolis. (make it like Skyway stadium during elevated gameshow supplied by jumpads and zips.)

-With the Big Duck gameshow : Parthenon is during modern days ruins ( Similar to Monaco destroyed cathedral )

[dry knot]

this what im saying!!

[wheat whale]

NGL a Pirate ship map in the middle of the ocean with shark infested waters and a Cthulu or Kraken to mess shit up would be lit. A Volcano map with a floating castle chained over the lava (like Shrek I) and a Dragon. Not sure if other games have maps like this though...

[near knoll]

Im in.

[fallow tree]

I want a map with 4 quadrants surrounding a mountain, being separated and you can only go to a different quadrant using jump pads and maybe even zip lines on tall buildings (kinda like the watchtowers on PEACE). I think it would be fun to take the zip/jump and take in the view of the mountain, then get back into the action in a new area. You could also make it so the cashout and vaults are never in the same quadrants (in qc at least)

I have bad news, we got to listen to S8 OST during livestream. And it does not sound medieval at all. Far from it in fact.
It's kind of the same style of S7 OST, very energetic.

So ig we can wait another season 🙂 good luck to keep that streak up

[sturdy mirage]

Thank you for this info. I BETTER GET GOOD NEWS ON THE ONE YEAR MARK

[rare wing]

got a timestamp?

also, thing is, we get interchanging real and made up places

season 3 kyoto
4 fortune stadium
5 was bernal
season 6 was the whole vegas thing, no idea if this should be counted as an outlier
if we assume it was, 7 continuous it with nozomi as made up
so season 8 would be a real map

given, medieval could work in a real place, plenty of castles
but i think it would be far better applied in a fantasy season, with dwarfs, elfs and so on, in a made up place

[wary glade]

venice italy map 🤤

check 01:52:23

this is mid song, but im scared to lose it again, so that'll have to do

[rare wing]

thanks man

sound interesting
not sure what the theming might be

[rough tangle]

I would love to believe it's gonna be medieval, but the new music tells me otherwise :/

no clue what it could be either, maybe modern times? they will show the meatspace and it's current time maybe?

[rare wing]

i did check out the few beginning minutes, and something did sound vaguely medieval

yknow, maybe its like a theme park situation
part medieval, part vikings, romans maybe, and the other ost was like space

[rare wing]

but i do think we wont get to see the meatspace
sounds like people would rather escape that tbh

[rough tangle]

I'm not sure, the synth doesn't suit medieval xd to me. But I sure as heck hope your right

it's very hype tho, so i expect something that would put forward the major event.

let's see, ultimately nobody knows :p

[rare wing]

its still the finals tho
its not out of the question to have a mix of old and new

would suprise me if the show got shut down because of cns again, and the ai accidentally mixes hystorical facts with random fiction, again

[rough tangle]

https://www.youtube.com/live/J54e0yQzQQk?si=lhM08k5_eh0E4ilU

back to spread what I learned, so timestamps:

• 8:50
• 36:55
• 1:51:55

To me they sounds very hype, almost like mimicking some Olympic songs
Pretty safe to say it’s gonna be something of the sort, surrounding the major. So Olympic/major eshow type season imo

The trumpets at 8:50 could maybe indicate medieval, but that’s stretching it
They could also fit the Olympics theme, so…

[rough tangle]

The more I listen to it, the more I believe medieval could happen xd

A beach with a vacation resort would be nice. Storms, winds that kick up debris, etc.

There is not gonna be a Medieval map, just Medieval rewards based on Swedish Vikings. Probably S8 Battle Pass.

This is not a rumour, it's not gossip and it's not a leak. It's official info released by Developers in one of the Q&A streams. If you CM's don't know about what devs talk in the official streams it's not my fault.

Please don't mute me or warn me again for it alright? Thanks, much appreciated

[runic forge]

show a clip where they said that

I remember it as no Viking-themed season coming.
We want a medieval season.
Ik vikings are from medieval times but we're talking about knights and castles etc

no viking season does not equal no medieval season

I can imagine viking cosmetics being a part of a medieval seasons battlepass or shop update

[versed knoll]
