[rotund flame]

I don't know if this is a known issue or if its just me, but in m y last game of Easter Mode, the revive column and token columns were switched so it said I had 6 tokens and infinite revives.

[quick coyote]

because its impossible to whiff with since the impact changes

[wintry yarrow]

Your game sucks

[thorny parcel]

Do an April Fools event where the loadouts are completely randomized and everyone is on a team of four for the heck of it.

[glad rapids]

😳

[regal ferry]

all guns should shoot foam projectiles dealing no damage whatsoever as well

[thorn elbow]

revives and tokens are inverted in ranked on the scoreboard

[west dome]

Not sure if this is the right channel for this, but has anyone mentioned the bug where the heal gun stops working mid game? Like you can pull it out and fire but it acts like there are no teammates around even when one is in front of you.

[drifting sapphire]

you have a bug report channel

[twilit yacht]

please give heavy the rpg in the bunny event, lights can just outrun you

[junior dawn]

the ks-23 is garbage

[teal pumice]

Yes I’ve mentioned it twice now, also the KS almost never registers shots, its garbage. Also the the dome shield just doesn’t work anymore

[raw perch]

im sitting at 16 min queue time..... for ranked
i had forgotten i was queued....
east coast
... i might have to call it at 20.

[near dew]

Yet another update where the audio gets worse

[humble osprey]

Can you make mouse and keyboard compatible with ps5 please ❤️ thank you

[short oracle]

"Win one tournament" do it count the ranked one? (cuz usually it would say a ranked one)

[cosmic cloud]

The bunny bash contract stage award is 300 VRS... What am I going to do with that? Are you sure it wasn't supposed to be multibucks?

[velvet thistle]

The new onsie looks cool (Bank Rabbit outfit), tho it would be nice if we can take the hoodie off (lower it on the back or remove it, either way) & be able to put some other skins as headwear

[tired hedge]

hope they change it back

[late peak]

This Game needs BETTER MATCHMAKING and a ANTI CHEAT SYSTEM
and this URGENTLY!

[proper yarrow]

BUG: respawn credits and revives are switched on leaderboard

[tender sail]

Hey guys could you implement some kind of matchmaking system? Thanks

[thorny osprey]

get a pc

[drifting gorge]

guys revives are coins and coins are revives

[oblique ferry]

Is anyone else's game crashing there computer everytime I get on my computer crashes just started doing it today

[smoky jacinth]

FEEDBACK: Go to the Paws Up emote. Please FIX the texture/look of armpits. Terribly done. It's funny, but looks bad.

[delicate pawn]

they should increase xp for weapons and gadgets it takes way to long to level them up. i think adding item specific challenges for 5000 xp would be cool

[scarlet rampart]

okay

[karmic moss]

too much cheaters, i leave the game. Good luck with that

[obsidian solar]

This is actually one of the best ideas i've heard, holy hell

[junior dawn]

the lvl 7 skin for weapons is ugly. it doesnt look "ultimate" like the level 6 skin does. i think it needs to be changed

[dire lance]

Do something with ranked. Break the HHM meta. Nerf the RPG. Put the fame points and progress bar back. DO SOMETHING

[keen beacon]

ok yeah this is something i've been really pissed and annoyed about for a while

stop giving us new content if you have to. FIX RANKED.

[amber quest]

I'd like a Sorry ping for when I absolutely choke on a 1 v 1 Dx

[quick coyote]

whats going on with the coins in ranked?

[celest tree]

revives and respawn token columns swapped in scoreboard ingame

[abstract harbor]

So, we can dress up as a pink rabbit for $20, but we can't keep our loadouts between spawns. Fantastic.

[dark kraken]

Get better at the game

[sleek blade]

🤓👆

[tender sail]

What a funny guy. I wish I could be that funny. Then I could go around hearing sweet silent laughter everywhere I go. 🤡

[near dew]

Screen now has a permanent glitch effect after your first death on your HUD

[tough anchor]

Please change and grow as a person

[serene gale]

Please add death cam, and act upon reports, I've been meeting cheaters way too frequently. How come a new game has more cheaters in a week than the amount of cheaters I've ever met in Overwatch in 5 years

[viscid haven]

Challenger Circuit page is buried in the Profile Menu because of the event. Please make it more visible so people can see the contracts and rewards over the next 2 weeks. ❤️

[zinc fern]

RPG needs a buff if anything, it’s a rocket launcher let’s be real. And if you don’t like it run APS. Also, I like the new event even with the minor bugs, it’ll be gone in 2 weeks anyways so I’m not stressing. Ranked matchmaking could use some work, cheaters are definitely a thing and it sucks to see so any effort towards that would be cool. Lastly, the new skin I agree is not as “superior” looking as last seasons. If you even read this please make next seasons one better looking (sorry shark slow mode sucks)

[sick pier]

Add killcam 🙏

[hidden locust]

Can we get an option to buy an individual skin in a bundle tht costs money(the bunny skin)
I put multi bucks on my friends account so he could get it so now instead of 20 it'd be 40
Its a great bundle and you get the coins back
But i rlly think you should have the option to just get the skin or to buy with coins

[marble fern]

FIX RANKED SPAWNS BACK TO S1 SPAWNS SO WE STOP HAVING 3v1s ON EVERY POINT

[nocturne osprey]

Ive gotten kicked for cheating in the last 2 games and im not cheating

[shut bane]

Guys give ur opinion about this idea

https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1222256190176890922

Comment if u have additional touches

[dire lance]

[exotic lagoon]

The game won't let you inspect the default skins for weapons and gears 😦

[quartz shell]

please make an option to disable the glitch effect when you are dead

[tiny current]

Please add a grenade indicator I cannot count the amount of times I've taken a random 149 damage put of no where

[twilit sorrel]

The Revives and Respawn Tokens are flipped on the scoreboard. It shows I have 0 revives but 6 tokens…this should be reversed

[little locust]

"balancing" the fcar by adding recoil in a game with a known aimbot problem is a terrible idea. you leave the highest dps weapon for people running scripts and screw the rest of us

[untold flint]

Fun game

[odd flax]

newer anti cheat when ? hey dev u guys should check asia ranked tournament, full of cheater even on powershift mode someone did 35k+ damage

[vernal swallow]

exactly, FCAR nerf was bad and not only that but they didn’t even touch akm even though I swear that was having even worse problems because of aimbot/just op

[quick coyote]

RPG... Buff? What a time we live in.

[split drift]

what happened to monaco in ranked?

[subtle cove]

Please remove the need to win a tournament for the current circuit

[coarse junco]

Fix the f,ing ranked matchmaking

1. Last 2 games im s1 it was my lasst game for promotion to goldand guss what i only got 1 teammate who left and i was left to die and lose the other game i was placed by myself and lost which means i probably need 2 wins to progress or 1 now

2. "Well the. Go to lfg"
   Nice one but i tried to nobody dmed me tried me or anything i was simpky ignored why? Most likely bc im silver

3. Sbmm? So ur saying people in gold gttng placed with 2 bronze div3 or 1 is good alr.

[tough anchor]

Make abandoning a ranked match an instant matchmaking ban and demotion. I am SO TIRED OF PEOPLE LEAVING MID GAME. Quitting like that should be a 12 hour ranked ban FIRST OFFENSE.

[robust swan]

Bunny pet that poops eggs

[abstract harbor]

Game is in a poor state, and they clearly don't know what to do to make it actually enjoyable for anyone that doesn't play the game for 12 hours a day. Their response: More over-priced skins.

[deft geode]

Removing unranked tournament - then putting in a challenge to get one tournament win - which you can only do via ranked tournament is torture. +1 to this

[lucid fern]

the ui is absolutely cluttered with gamemodes now
i'd understand if it was a game with a really active player base globally, splitting into multiple gamemodes would make sense then, but with a dying game it's severely counterproductive

[fresh shell]

If an entire team leaves if they have already gotten a cashout, nobody should be able to join in their place, or their progress should be reset.

[last saddle]

New mode is fun, though something needs to be able to break a team of 5 heavys with sledges and bubble shields.

[near snow]

how the fuck you gonna remove unranked tournament then make you win one in the new challanges? this is stupid at this point

[verbal quarry]

Can we have weapons that dont just kill in 3 shots i feel like every weapon kills in like 3 or 4 hits they all feel the same

[karmic ember]

UM okay so we get a stick?

[junior dawn]

remove "win a tournament" from the contracts please. not everyone plays this game to sweat.

the replies are extremely tone-deaf

[flint badge]

It’s perfect wdym

[glossy panther]

its not that hard they're not asking you to get to diamond

[floral hedge]

uhhh so we are going to add a challenge to win one tournament while also REMOVING unranked tournament, what kind of joke is that?

[tough anchor]

That's the greatest weapon skin ever

[final pebble]

Humbly requesting proximity chat

[white heath]

I preferred casual cash out the way it was, I’m all for an extra team but I don’t think it should have cash loss on teamwipe or limited respawn

[oak pike]

Low gravity is a fucking horrible and unfun modfiier. Just remove it already.
@white heath Go play quick cash then. It's still in the game. That being said, cashout is a far better mode. Quick cash is actually fucking horrible.

[plucky raptor]

THE FINALS prop hunt

[cinder folio]

hey I was thinking of a cool idea!

are we able to switch between Season musics? like in the options menu we choose between Season 1 music or CNS music?

[quick coyote]

considering its impossible for me to get into a ranked game (20m queue times with nothing) please change this!!!!

[hasty citrus]

the game often crash when i get killed or respawn. plz fix

[quick coyote]

how can your ranked be so bad? how is this fucking possible? how do you have years of examples and industry experience blah blah and you can't create proper matchmaking? how is this possible? why are you silent about the absolute backlash about this entire system? you seem totally content with torpedoing your game. but hey you made the rank icons bigger! wtf is going on at that studio bro

[nova veldt]

ranked is so luck based, won 3 games in a row first place, then lost fourth because Every single time it was 3-4 teams on same cashout

[last saddle]

Seconded. Very much seconded. Maybe have it as "Participate in 5 tourneys" or something. Winning one is such a crapshoot with horrible matchmaking trying to do it solo.

And adding that in when they removed the unranked tournament is even worse.

[opaque moth]

please change debris affecting stealing a cash out. have lost many easy steals because a collapsed roof keeps pushing me tiny bits from the cash out station. it’s even worse when you have no utility to blow up the debris and stop it

[plucky thunder]

Can we please see our fp I want to know how close I am to ranking up

[near snow]

give me teammates worth playing with, none of these 0-8 trashbaggers, having to carry my team isnt fun\

[gleaming mango]

This please. I suck at this game but I love playing it. I dont want to drag someone's team in ranked. Quick Cash is everything for me. But its also very important to me to complete all contracts I must check all boxes.

[real nest]

They want everyone to play ranked

[marsh crypt]

maybe adding something like a commending system to give positive feedback to teammates after match... could be for like good teamwork, skill/mvp and leadership

[exotic lagoon]

skill issue just go to the other cashout

[sudden spire]

The heavy slug shotgun still feels really bad. It does such little damage for it slow rate-of-fire. If you miss one shot your dead, and you are going to miss a shot

[umbral charm]

Hot take: People with no comms (not in game chat) should not be allowed to play ranked

[shy swan]

• play again as a team button
• smokes disable all fire damage
• see friends list characters cosmetics in list
• glitch nade and landmine last 7 seconds not 5 or 10
• glitch mine has larger radius

[floral hedge]

challenges like "damage 1 opponent with an arena carriable" (must be egg related I guess) and "deal 3000 damage to opps while they are standing on the platform in powershift" are not tracking in the bunny bash mode

[glad dirge]

bring back the ks-23 damage!!!

[stuck forum]

Me and a friend have been encountering error code TSS0007 which effectively locks us out of opening the game. It stopped bugging for me but not for said friend; which kinda sucks. It’s basically the only genuinely game breaking bug I’ve seen. Just wanted to put it out there 🤪

[pure raptor]

Good Game

[signal vigil]

career challenge is to win tournament, but unranked has been replaced and in ranked it's unreal to win, WP(

[dreamy latch]

unsure if this is intentional, but when you defib someone their outline blocks bullets

really annoying when someone defibs in a hallway in front of you and now have an impenetrable shield

[acoustic harbor]

Remove that players can choose in which server they want to play. 80% cheaters in the game are chinese. Please go play in asia server only once then you will see. Let the chinese cheater play against each other. The chinese have no reason to play in europe server but because they have in asien server so much cheater competitor thats why they come to europe server because they know there are not much cheaters so they can win easily. <@&1009839355801636904> | Oscar

[quick coyote]

There are cheaters in my lobby. This is so annoying

[acoustic portal]

HEY don't force people to play Ranked tournament in Challenger Circuit Stage 3... OW2 never did such thing and please change it back to something else that can be achieved

Please consider respecting people who is not willing to play Ranked mode

[blazing cape]

Please for the love of god let us lock voice channels to 3! This is the only server in which I routinely hear the N-word.

and yet mfs complain its the same game over and over again cant make everyone happy

[sonic spoke]

Wft hack/Exploiting is out of hand

[nocturne gale]

Ordinary tournaments can be removed, the original team ranking competition mode can be retained, an additional event will be opened, and single-row competitions can not be formed, which can reduce the number of people who drive trumpets to pursue ranking trailers.

[zinc bane]

in casual bank it? no its not. its anything but that in fact because despite there being more lights in the casual playlist not all of them use glitch nor use it effectively. if you're talking about the new mode specifically i'd say thats a symptom of the mode; not glitch itself. bad change.

[quaint estuary]

if your friend is afk, practice mode could be open…?👀

[floral hedge]

Eggs are a throwable item found around the arena aka an arena throwable. Snowmen heads were and Christmas ornaments were.

[sharp kraken]

anyone know if the skins in the store will come back?

[plucky badger]

Noticed a really unfair bug. if a heavy hits a direct RPG point blank not only will they still take the increased self damage the player that got hit will receive the reduced 60% damage of the rpg and take 84 instead of 140

[radiant imp]

Having "Win 1 tournament" as a weekly contract after removing unranked tournaments is basically going to force people into ranked just to unlock a cosmetic and 8k xp, bit of an oversight and imo a contract that shouldn't really be there.

[exotic lagoon]

CASHBOXES STOPPED SPAWNING 4 MINUTES BEFORE THE END LOLOLOL

[nimble valve]

Pls change "win 1 tournament" contract 🙏

[daring fossil]

bunny bash doesn't count towards the power shift stage 3 circuit contract

[oak kernel]

Actually though, that's monstrous 😭. Didn't they just take away unranked too?

[white heath]

thats why I said I wanted cashout to be somewhat reverted to how it was...

[zealous schooner]

10 minutes for a bank it game and still nothing, you’d think i was queing for ranked

[oak pike]

Why would you want that it's objectively worse, go play quick cash

[acoustic edge]

I think servers might be dead atm
I cant get a game

[umbral charm]

They're working fine for me, I'd check your personal connection (bro below me can you not insult devs when making a suggestion? makes you look like the clown)

Fix the spawns for the love of god and everything holy. It's genuinely making me go insane. Why do 2 teams spawn up my ass constantly? Jesus Christ these Devs are clowns

[woven briar]

Just asking for mouse keyboard to be back on console. Kk thanks love ya byyyye

[iron canyon]

echoing the removal of the win 1 tournament circuit contract please. especially since unranked has been removed. devs, please change it to play 1 or x ranked matches or just win 1 round. not the whole tournament/final round. those would've been more attainable for many players. still challenging, but not too much/impossible. i play this game daily, but i don't play ranked and just overall don't have an interest in it. also don't have great wifi and our city often gets power outages so it can happen when playing a rank match

[tawny karma]

dam these new challenges getting harder and harder

[unborn cosmos]

does anyone know how to see my fame points now?

[wispy patio]

Hello Embark team, could you please help us with the ranked queue in South America? It is possible to set automatically the region for players that have a good ping average? (And remove the capability to change) Today the Ranked queue is dead in SA because most player don't find games and they select NA as preferred to play quick. Could we please replicate the same that COD WZ have? By default you are assigned in the region with better ping, in case that you don't found a match in 5 mins, it automatically redirect you to the second closer. Please don't let the game die.

[elfin creek]

Power shift, why even have a sudden death if the team losing can still push the objective when it is actively contested? Would be much better if it was actually was contested with the enemy team on the platform, giving the team the chance to hold them in close matches, if its a player count thing like 2 on blue and 1 on red are all on the platform, remove that, just my 2 cents

[terse lark]

you can still buy anything that has been in the store, the store is mainly a way to show off new stuff

[sweet seal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEeyCbk1BL8 bring back this song its epic

[tight garden]

do weekly challenges stay until end of the season?

[timid kiln]

aint my video but has a point

[pine raft]

cry about things while theres only fcar and recon clips playing in the background xd

[quick coyote]

not a huge fan of the glitch effect when ur teamwiped

[white heath]

I didn’t say I wanted quick cash, I just said I think cash out the one with the vaults to be somewhat reverted

[oak pike]

yea why would you want it to be a worse mode than it is now

[paper rose]

Would devs be down to implement an oddball kind of gamemode?
Either 5v5 or 3v3v3, a Nagatama plush spawns in the center of the map, you'll get $1 while holding it, the first team to achieve $X wins
Lights would be a problem of course, but the general idea could be fun

[quartz oak]

Loading into a ranked match with one teammate shouldn’t be possible, but you should absolutely be able to leave without penalty if it does😐😐

[daring fossil]

playing ranked with a buddy since we're forced to to finish weeklies and some dude obviously aim botting on the other team with no rank.

[grim dagger]

Playing ranked as a silver 2 getting gold 1 lobbies...

[signal hemlock]

All in favor of Cashout replacing Quick Cash, F in the chat

[odd ibex]

If u read my suggestion it has nothing to do with dash stabbing,it’s to only hook on walls/wall jumps and do damage from falling from above(downwards thrust) we can’t fly around like sword and dash buts it’s the the next best thing
Right?
Also I suggested u to see nomu cause he doesn’t have hit register problems and can have backstab but I miss point blank,it’s not fair.
I mean what version of the game is he playing?!

[subtle tree]

This game is going in a good direction, but please... BRING BACK THE NUKE.

Added so much fun, and removing it is simply less fun. Give mediums a breach charge roll with it.

[thorny hare]

The game needs an opacity option for the objectives. There's too many times where the cashout / vault / revive icons are in the way of whatever you're aiming at.

[tulip dove]

Hell no, the game feels way better without it

[tough anchor]

Can aim assist be reverted to before the S1 Nerf on console only lobbies?

[thick sorrel]

I like that. I would also add:

• No matchmaking with Blocked Playerr or at least an notification. So you can handle cheater yourself!

[near dew]

There are still cheaters rampant in the game maybe you guys should add a third anticheat

[quartz oak]

Dude I hate it, it makes the numbers so hard to read

[sterile jetty]

Please add weapons into the game.

[tardy cloud]

second time a vault had gotten stuck in the floor for me in quick cash. Please fix this bug

[pseudo latch]

I appreciate you guys trying to diversify the weeklies to spice things up, but making us play ranked is about as enjoyable as eating a boot for some of us.

[daring fossil]

just played a tourney to the final round and every single match was on vegas, amazing.

[cinder folio]

I agree 100% but bring it back with some reasonable balance changes 🙂

[fiery patio]

Give players that abuse the leave glitch a negative title. "Leaver", "Rat" or something. Goes away after certain amount of good behaviour games.

[toxic shadow]

[terse ember]

why does the battlepass no longer put where you currently are.
in season 1 it you were at like lvl 34 it would put you on that page.
in season 2 it puts you at the very first page no matter where you are.

[hollow barn]

Please. Improve the queue solo experience. If I play solo for common sense the game should pair me with people who play solo. Not with a premade of 3 that the coordination advantage ends up stomping the match. Not everyone uses the microphone to communicate and is putting themselves at a disadvantage against premades. Thanks for the weekly updates, you guys are the best!

[subtle tree]

@tulip dove I play exclusively light, the weakest class. Bring it back.
@cinder folio I don't think it needs any changes, maybe don't allow two explosives on a single carriable. With the weight and physics changes it felt pretty reasonable.
@toxic shadow

I want to counter nuke heavies again. My breach charge + their two C4's = "Bye bye!"

[cosmic cloud]

After today update, 4 crashes over 13 games is not fun, especially in ranked. And did something happen to ranked match making recently? Instantly finding matches (normally took a few minutes before), but only getting teammates who best strategy is throwing themselves at the cashout and stacking up loss after loss. (Or is the LTM distracting ranked players?)

[shut aspen]

Regarding the new game mode event, it's mediocre at best. That one cowboy event was really cool because there was a theme to it, but this one just felt so random with the loadouts honestly. I don't hate the idea of having pre-made loadouts for players, but if you're going to that I rather see it actually be tied to a theme. Like imagine a medial ltm where every class runs a loadout that uses melee weapons and bows/crossbows (If bows/crossbows eventually get added to the game wink wink) because atleast there's a fun little theme that's goofy.
Other than that you guys are doing great keep up the good work!

[marble brook]

Do they know the power surge winnings don’t count towards the 50 million needed for the deep pockets trophy? Haven’t heard anyone talk about the trophy progress going up when you earn winnings from that mode which sucks as it’s the faster way to earn as of the moment

[quick coyote]

private match, i just wanna 1v1 my friend but the "6 minimum contestants to start" is 😭

[jagged cedar]

Fcar nerf rework when?

[molten palm]

There’s no point in adding tournament-related circuit challenges when the server never gets me into a ranked match LOL

[karmic ember]

running potatoe?

[knotty ermine]

the 'Win one round of Tournament' in the challenger circuit Needs to be removed, ive been match making for 40minutes

[hasty citrus]

I have a 4070 ti 💀

[tough agate]

game results being 80% reliant on good vs bad respawn RNG is absolutely stupid. we need to be able to choose our spawn (e.g. near Cashout B or near Vault 3). It can be a random place near where we choose, but not some place that will completely render our chance to retake an obj to zero

[dusty wave]

was just gonna say the same thing. Next to impossible as a solo player

[blissful bridge]

THIS^^^^

The nuke can be brought back and C4 restored without being OP.

Nuke:
-Carriables can only be attached with 1 gadget at a time.
-Carriables are one-shot when attached with a gadget.
-Players run slower and jump lower when carrying a trapped carriable
---* side thought ( 60sec timer starts after attaching gadget and carriable explodes when reaching 0 , this stops players from setting one up and waiting with it , it also stops making one at spawn and running with it across the map , players would have to setup much closer to fights)

All together this would make the nuke tactic easier to counter and much more situational. It would do less damage but still be fun and useful. Most importantly we can restore C4 to an ammo count of 2. We should imo give light class 2 breach charges as a side note. There's definitely a way to balance it and keep it in the game.

This isn't a one-shot tactic anymore with these small changes.

[thick sorrel]

If they want to reduce queue time, quick cash can be removed because cash out is so similar, just better and closer to ranked.

[sinful gazelle]

Rank changes

Add more ranks, the match making for this game is usually 1 diamond team queue with 3 silvers/gold teams. Either dia team stomps the whole lobby or they get targeted by everyone.

leading to that, Turn off Shown ranks for the entire lobby, keep it where it’s only your teammates that can see your rank. It shouldn’t be the whole entirely lobby, which leads to targeting and it not fun for both parties here.

buff anti cheat or smth, feels like lately cheaters are more in rank then ever. Maybe rank requires a phone numbers to able to play? Just a suggests for that.

[quick coyote]

🍿

[vocal cave]

I like that there are limited loadouts tbf because the gamemode is way better without aps'es and snipers. But i get you.

[timid kiln]

opinions?

[steel marlin]

replace the new weekly "win 1 tournament" challenge. it is way too difficult considering unranked is now vaulted and oceania can barely even find tournament matches in general anymore. all future challenges should always be able to be done in quick play

[elfin flame]

Can we possibly get frames for our calling cards???

[dusty wave]

One shot nukes are simply too strong, But I agree it shouldn't have been removed entirely. I think they should just remove the deactivation when holding the carriable (C4 only). Everything else is fine the way it is. Reduce the weight of non-explosive objects, that way it be more viable to use a non-explosive carriable. Less op, but can still do some damage, Increase the weight if more than one gadget is attached to the carriable. The way it is now there no way to get the "Blast Caster" achievement.

[gilded prism]

why remove the unranked tournament then make the circuit challenge to win a FULL RANKED TOURNAMENT? very bad choice, there are some people that could play for tens of hours and still not win a full tournament and its very unfair, the challenge should be changed to something else or at least unranked tournament be brought back
dont force casual players into ranked

[glacial sierra]

change your location to north america to find one. still a shitty challenge to have, i agree.

[violet elbow]

Revert the FCAR, AKM and Revolver range nerfs pls

Rework FCAR and Lewis Recoil patterns to be more difficult than their old patterns but not as random and stupidly eratic as they currently are (more consistency)

Nerf Lewis and FCAR with RPM Nerfs to hurt their close range TTK without ruining them at long range

Rework Spawns in ranked again

Give the Light Class actual meaningful Buffs that give it more utility in ranked play, like faster health regen and/or a more Team focused use of their core utility like stun and invis

please stop with the range and recoil nerfs, they just make gunplay feel absolutely abysmal while achieving nothing for most fights that happen in this game due to them being locked into close range

please stop listening to the whiners and actually listen to competent players, your current balancing decisions are moving the sandbox in an absolutely terrible state and its really upsetting

[fallen mirage]

Perfectly said. I played around with the FCAR last night and feel better about the recoil today than I did yesterday but it does make this game even harder for new players to pick-up and widens the gap between experience levels. It's a hard call for the devs to make the changes they introduce but reducing the fun factor for a lot of players with a harder recoil may not be good for building a much needed and larger casual player base...

[quaint maple]

Put any current events behind the leaderboard when opening it, it currently blocks it.

[pine raft]

They definitely adjusted matchmaking in ranked to get better queue times but solo is fucked again.
You could instead remove the first round of the tournament temporarily, since you don't seem to have enough players to support the system as it is without making the matches unbalanced.

[lost ivy]

There's plenty of options for people who aren't that good with mechanics. Melee weapons and the flame thrower are super easy to use. Plus the casual modes tend to be people mostly messing around. The learning curve for this game mostly comes in from decision making around objectives and team coordination

[paper sandal]

this challenge is a lot harder without regular tournaments lol

[foggy ginkgo]

Anyone else realize when u zoom into ur character fully during customization you begin to hear them breath🤣🤣

[charred shell]

I gotta be honest man i just

[dusty wave]

It make more sense if it was "win a game/round of Cashout"

[sacred siren]

can we not remove this from ziplines? how are you supposed to get rid of those super long stair ziplines on vegas from the bottom now? if you're trying to make it so that they dont get accidentally destroyed, just make them resistant to explosions.

I never realized so many people never played ranked until today. I legit feel bad for y'all since that mode is awful

[peak umbra]

So if anyone hasn't noticed,on the leaderboard ( in game, not top players) the number of revives and self revive coins, switched numbers, so for example if you have revived 5 teammates then it shows that 5 under the coin icon, and if you have inf self revive coins, it shows ∞ under "R"

[fallen mirage]

Fair enough:)

[sacred siren]

cant you just reroll? or can you not do that to weekly missions (and if its those challenger circuit ones they have 80 days to win 1 im sure they can manage)

[idle oracle]

Not sure if that is possible. I avoid ranked myself due not feeling good enough. Skill issues etc.
Assuming everyone has equal skill, you would have 1/16 chance of winning. This already has a low chance, and would doom at least some people to never win.
Problems escalate when you then also that ranked matchmaking is bad, and with 16 teams, there is a high chance at least one team is significantly better than you. Add in that ranked is supposedly filled with cheaters? There will be a good amount of casuals who will never win.

[tawny oriole]

The matchmaking become better, did you fix it or is it only a coincidence

[glacial knot]

Yes there are cheaters ingame and you recognize them mostly if they have so bad movement and very good aim . Thats why The anti cheat devs should work with AI

[clever hawk]

Some updates to this KS-23 review after further use. It’s definitely better than I thought but it still has 2 crippling flaws.

— The dispersion is still terrible

Again, when sprinting, sliding, or in the air this weapon has worse accuracy than the RPG! This is insane. It not only guts its effectiveness but also makes it highly frustrating.

A gun that relies upon simple strafing to be reliably accurate will be punished badly by skilled players. Movement is crucial to every weapon, especially single-shots.

Model 1887 is a comparable gun and is not affected at all when sprinting, and only negligibly worsens when sliding/in the air. The KS-23 can’t exist without similar accuracy.

— Reloading from empty is glacial

Normal single fire reloads are acceptable. The only problem is the terribly slow first shell reloaded from empty. It takes about 1.5s which is double the TTK of many weapons. 6 shots from full = ~4.3s. 3 consecutive shots from empty = ~6.2s.

With the tiny mag and the new ROF you hit empty very quickly even in a short fight. It’s a sustained issue in prolonged fights.

Waiting 1.5s to be able to shoot once is devastating and typically forces a disengage. But disengaging at will is impossible in many situations.

• The range falloff isn’t so bad

I’d not realised that there was a cap to the falloff. So whilst 60 DMG at 25m might not be ideal, still doing 60 DMG at 40m allows you to apply pressure even at ranges not normally considered viable for the weapon. It still has value at range.

With the major ROF and velocity buffs it’s not so hard to fight back at range either. I would still consider delaying the dropoff by 5m or so but it performs better than expected in this regard.

• The loss of identity isn’t so bad

Sure, it feels like the 1887 more than the old KS-23, but it still feels powerful. And identity is the least important attribute; being effective easily trumps it. Slightly more damage for slightly less ROF might be the ideal.

[pale shuttle]

Anti cheat not working, inability to mute people and the laggy netcode where you get killed even if you are already behind a corner (not a bandwith issue for me) are my biggest issues with the game currently. Otherwise well done dev team. The game feels nice!

[swift laurel]

cash box needs to respawn if its not been picked up for more than 1 minute as there is an issue where explosives can force it into the ground where it can't be picked up, the issue also affects statues which doesnt matter in casual but would in ranked

also cant put new message cuz 25 min timer but @rough vessel check out AnyBrain AI anticheat, it actually is a good idea not sure why you're being rude to that guy

[cobalt spoke]

Finger Gun Skin for the revolver or light listol

[remote scroll]

why cant we do the 2nd mission of the circuit in bunny bash

[rough vessel]

ah yes becuase AI anticheat sounds like such a great idea!

[remote holly]

Please catch people using the cheat program It's so hard

[sharp willow]

no its not fixed diamonds are still matching with me as plat 3

That doesn't sound unreasonable.

HOW THE FUCK I CAN COMPLETE CONTRACT "WIN RANKED TOURNAMENT" IF I CAN'T FIND A MATCH SINCE DAY1 ON XBOX AND YOU DEVS NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGING THIS BUGS??

[covert ermine]

i have a love hate relationship with ranked. i dont mind plat players. but ranked kept most of the cheaters out of casual tournaments

[lofty halo]

@developers Please add Mouse and Keyboard support on PS5. Maybe then I can come back to play🙃

[celest lichen]

Please help asia sever
if play 20 rank games, 20 games have china nickname cheaters

[restive vigil]

true

[thick sorrel]

One reason I dont play ranked are to many rounds. Im not a schoolkid anymore who can put in hours to play 1-2 full ranked tournaments.

1 qualification round and then finals maybe a slight different mode (or powershift as the final round) would be nice.

[tropic idol]

For those wary of Ranked, I don’t think the changes are bad… my friend and I only played unranked in Season 1 after getting utterly destroyed in Ranked the time we did try it. We then went back to Ranked in Season 2 on a whim (before unranked getting removed) and have been really enjoying it - a combination of us being much better/more experienced, plus matchmaking changes I guess. Personally I find the moment-to-moment gameplay in this game to be so good it doesn’t ever get that frustrating, even if actually winning a tourney seems a tall order it’ll be fun trying.

[sinful gazelle]

Rank changes

Add more ranks, the match making for this game is usually 1 diamond team queue with 3 silvers/gold teams. Either dia team stomps the whole lobby or they get targeted by everyone.

leading to that, Turn off Shown ranks for the entire lobby, keep it where it’s only your teammates that can see your rank. It shouldn’t be the whole entirely lobby, which leads to targeting and it not fun for both parties here.

buff anti cheat or smth, feels like lately cheaters are more in rank then ever. Maybe rank requires a phone numbers to able to play? Just a suggests for that.

[verbal smelt]

make that we are directly on the current page of the BP because it's really annoying to scroll our way from the start every new unlock

[violet elbow]

genuinely hoping the range/recoil nerfs are just makeshift fixes and we get actual substantial nerfs to the FCAR/Lewis and re-buffs to range and recoil, making funplay feel worse is not a healthy and long lasting way of balancing a sandbox cuz its just gonna end up making the game not feel fun

[clever hawk]

@sick pier @delicate basin

I updated my KS-23 thoughts, interested in hearing if you agree/if you’ve any new insights

[delicate basin]

I do not second this. Identity is the most important part of a weapon. I'd much rather use sledge all day than play the millionth copy paste AR. If I want to play this style of weapon, I will always choose model 1887 over KS-23 due to the movement speed

[stray rampart]

Agreed. It just ruins the fun and does absolutely nothing else

[upbeat urchin]

I agree with the fall off range (especially on revolver), but in my opinion the TTK is not the problem but the amount of damage per bullet, I mean FCAR does 25 per bullet --> 6 shots light, 10 shots Medium 14 shots Heavy = just too OP. by simply lowering damage a bit (lets say 23) it would already take 1 more bullet to kill each class. compensate by increasing fire rate and keep recoil the same and you'll have a more balanced weapon (and I did not even mention the headshot multiplier than needs to be tuned down too). And this comes from a medium FCAR main lol, this gun is not fun to play with or against. This weapon ruins the Light class by itself

[nocturne gale]

People play less and less, hang more and more, the higher the Rank, the greater the pressure, and the guns I like are being weakened all the time. I really can't keep playing this game. If there are no new people to join in this game, respected developers, if not, let's learn from the modes of other popular games, at least like the Magic Beast Palu, we can win a good reputation.

[lusty grotto]

what a shitty patch the medium remains the same they haven't done anything well nothing that is still god 80% goes with medium if they don't do anything the game will die because people will get tired of seeing only one character when there are 3 in the league you shouldn't have to to be able to repeat classes and that the people who go with 3 medium cry if they want to, they only take the class that is the most broken and not the one they like the most, those people are disgusting

[flint badge]

I had a very similar experience

[oblique abyss]

Can’t even enjoy the game without hackers i play against them and the hacks just start right away just because i play light with the sword

[lapis pollen]

It's hilarious that fcar and ks-23 user crying about their weapon.
Have you try once dagger, riot shield or knives ?
You will be shock that there are so many shit weapon and you still cry about your op weapon got nerf.

[turbid falcon]

The circuit challenge to win 1 ranked tournament is just about impossible for a huge amount of the player base. No ones playing them, in OCE. Up to an hour long wait in south US, Asia full of hackers.
This is a bullshit challenge and should be changed
https://www.reddit.com/r/thefinals/comments/1bpjei7/please_dont_make_casual_players_have_to_play/

[lavish hatch]

Please update anti hack ASAP. It's literally unplayable now.

The new skins are awesome but play with/against hacks in every single game made me unwilling to buy those. Those aimbots are killing this game

[clever hawk]

I get that, and I did say in my update that I think a slight ROF nerf for a slight DMG buff is perhaps ideal.

The problem is that I don’t think the damage that it originally had should ever be exceeded. That was the cap, go beyond it and it starts feeling horrible to play against as insane chunks of your health disappear from a glance.

The problem being that the old ROF necessitated almost perfect accuracy, which is impossible and means the gun will never be meta. And if you can’t increase the DMG then the ROF is the only solution.

The gun right now is really good outside of the two flaws I detailed (accuracy + empty reload). Hopefully minor changes to the ROF/DMG could keep it at the same level of effectiveness while also making it feel more like the old version.

[zenith fjord]

hack even in normal game

[violet elbow]

when the meta fullauto rifles are still the exact same meta fullauto rifles within 30m but at ranges where it used to take skill to hit people consistently with they are now useless and feel awful to use

but the whiners think its a good change because they think any kind of nerf to a good gun is a good nerf because they lack a fundamental understanding of Skill/Reward and Balance

[spice herald]

Change the ranked system I’m begging

[upper granite]

@pearl kiln will we see some kind of indicator in ranked in the next weeks patch?

[delicate basin]

If they make it 2 tap walls I might be ok with the current version. I just hate that the projectileness is gone because I've always loved projectile weapons. All I want is the slower projectile speed really but I'm probably the only one who wants this😅

[pearl kiln]

I hope so!

[spiral bridge]

Changing recoil is generally a bad thing to do imo, especially after so many games worth of muscle memory, I can see many players quit after these types of nerfs. I’d rather a straight up damage nerf than recoil nerf

[stray rampart]

Take a look at this message and the two linked before that: #👂┇game-feedback message

I'm not asking for much, but please do consider this while changing balance in the future. I'd also love to see the removed things in more balanced, reworked/redesigned form. Thank you 💚

[covert ermine]

i hate this stage 3... the ranked tournaments is so damn frustrating... its either cheaters or smurfs...

[frosty obsidian]

what rank were u season 1?

[real moon]

one of the weekly challanges is win 1 tournamet, since causal is removed ranked is the only option, but i'm on oceania and we don't have ranked games, what are we supposed to do?

[vestal basin]

When will you do something about those thilfy china cheaters? They are there since the game release

[vestal glen]

Can you remove the penalty for leaving ranked when a team mate disconnect? Like it was in S1? I just started a round with only 1 mate and he left as soon as it started. This is really a waste of time and I don't want to get timed out because of people like that. I'd also like to not waste my time waiting for other teams to finish the round

[polar mist]

I want to be notified when a player I reported is banned.

[jaunty pawn]

For the Easter event In quickplay you should have removed Quick Cash so its only Bank It/Power Shift/Cash Out and Cash Out should should have unlimited credits to get people used to playing the ranked mode since its 3v3v3v3

[tawdry mesa]

Hi, please change the win tournament mission

There is no Unranked tournament now

[warm marsh]

Go play ranked ma boy

[final skiff]

I’d get a million notifications coz I report every light player who plays invis and stun

[hollow barn]

Please consider changing the contract (win 1 tournament). In my region it is impossible to find a ranked game. Plus there are people who just don't want to be forced to play ranked. Thanks for the weekly updates. Keep cooking!

[native helm]

I feel like adding a challenge to win a tournament, regardless of the circuit it's in, is a bad idea - the rank itself, and the rewards for it, should be the goal, and getting people in Ranked who really only care about a Challenge for their Circuit is terrible for the, for lack of a better term, competitive integrity -> No way to win the tournament? why even try/continue playing? -> leave match.

I personally don't mind this challenge too much, but I know lots of people that couldn't care less for ranked/their ranks and I'd want everyone in Ranked on the same page.

[acoustic portal]

I upvote this, I will not consider buying battle pass unless this challenge changes

I have to win a tournament for weekly contract yet no one plays tournament

[frank plume]

please add better mouse sensitivity customizations i'm waiting for this since release. the thing is, the sliders aren't very accurate, maybe you could add decimals by .1 or even .01 . also i would love the range of the sliders to be bigger, e.g. when i turn Focal Lentgh Sensitivty Scaling on, to me it feels like zooming with an AR like the FAMAS or the FCAR is too slow and the slider doesn't go past 100. So usually turn it off, and leave it on 100 so zooming and hip fire has the same cm/360° rotation. the game is fast paced so it feels great to me. But then, when i play the sniper or use the tracking dart and want to quick scope, the "zoomed in sens" (scope zoom sensitivity multiplier) turns instantly on, as soon as you right click, which feels very off to me. so then i have to go into the settings and turn Focal Lentgh Sensitivty Scaling on again.. TLDR: a setting where you can decide when the scope zoom applies, e.g. when you right click - or after the scope is fully zoomed in. and/or additionally make it possible to have bigger range in the sliders plus decimals as i mentioned above. iirc Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2019) did it very good with many and accurate customization options. thank you so much embark for the awesome game. i turn 30 soon and haven't played any games ina few years because everything was totally boring and the same over and over again, CS, PUBG, TArkov etc are too slow for me nowadays, CoD is too sweaty, love the game, keep it up!!

Please and thank you.

I just played a ranked game on Asia servers (I'm OCE but can only play ranked on Asia cause of low player count) with 8 cheaters, not even kidding. Most of them had aimbot and you just insta die if you see them. I know for certain at least 5 of those 8 players were cheating. Every ranked game I play run into at least a couple cheaters. Its really bad. Anyone else running into cheaters every game?

[opaque axle]

I played with a cheater today and honestly never wanna do ranked again.

[shrewd plover]

How do you invite a dc/d friend back into your game? The social screen (P) doesn't show friends... 🤔

could we please get some alternative way to complete this challenge? or way to reroll it?

[violet elbow]

healthy and good nerfs since release:

C4, nukes are gone, while still being incredibly lethal as a setup/versatile as a breach/cashout knock Tool, yall did this by lowering its damage and moving it to 1 use with 2 placeable

RPG, cant oneshot lights, is still an incredibly strong tool within its intended range, and is still very much capable of massive burst damage

Stun Gun, which got a Duration Nerf and its frustrating Sensitivity reduction removed, makes it already much less frustrating to fight compared to closed Beta

The SA1216, you nerfed its spread on release and its damage/rpm just a week ago, making it a higher risk/reward weapon by changing TTK and Shots to kill against heavy/medium/Light
All these Nerfs considered Risk/Reward and played into strengths and weakpoints

Then there are the Recoil nerfs and range nerfs that hurt gunplay feel and smoothness but achieve nothing for the actual balance.

The Lewis gun is still the best heavy weapon in the game within 30m, nothing about that changed, it just completely lost its Identity as a rifle because it sucks at long range now, the new recoil pattern isnt even consistently hard, its just eratic and way too much horizontal for no Vertical recoil, recoil should be consistently hard troughout the pattern, not this inconsistent.

The FCAR, AKM, REVOLVER, nerfs completely ignore the nuanced balance we once had and hurt these guns way too much in the wrong ways

The FCAR has the same issue as the Lewis, its new recoil doesnt make sense and doesnt feel good to use, it makes the gun feel awful.

The AKM got a range nerf this season alongside the FCAR, making it essentially useless outside 35m, which makes no sense considering its a HIGH CALIBER RIFLE, and these range nerfs only help to hurt the skill gap and drive away good Players

Same thing for the revolver, a range nerf was never needed and it should be completely reverted imo, please reward people for hitting shots at range.

[warm fjord]

The heavy shotgun might be way too precise to be a shotgun, its probably me and my shitty aim (just sometimes)but even with the buff the shots are not that random at all, for example the medium shotgun when you shoot is more like random shots which reflect on your aim because you get at least more damage but the heavy shotgun does not, the buff that it recieved was actually good because it made it more of a playable gun, back then it was not, but it still has issues regarding its preciseness. (Not the SA1216)

[broken geyser]

I can't que for a tournament it takes so long and I have a full lobby at times too

[quick coyote]

I am hating the fact that I need to complete a tournament to finish these lot of objectives. I have to wait forever as a solo cause I can't find a game only to get screwed over by RNG match making... terrible F..

[blazing python]

cant find games, over 15 min queue, no game...

[clever hawk]

The respawn times in Cashout are far too punishing for new/casual players. It should be like the Cowboy event: no revive tokens, shorter respawn times.

There’d still be plenty of depth to the mode and team wipes would still be punished.

I’m getting lobbies filled with new players and there’s no way they’re enjoying dying to an experienced player and then having to wait 28 seconds to respawn lmao. And that’s just an individual death, never mind a teamwipe.

[hasty citrus]

The bunny skin locked away in real world money is really scummy embark

[thorny parcel]

Please revert the ks23 damage nerf. Maybe give it back slower firerate but buff the reload speed and have perfect accuracy during ads

[fresh juniper]

gold 2 soloqueue getting matched with 2 diamonds stacks and 1 plat stack, i get 2 other golds, wtf

[tired hedge]

The current changes will leave the gun dead at a couple of weeks max. I have 410 hours, Medium Diamond main, and like to analyze stuff in the game, the main issue why nobody played with the KS is because it was uninviting and a different gun aside from what we have now. Good gun turned to bad gun...

[glacial storm]

the recent patch changed the ks-23s damage so drastically that quite literally all of its combo damage breakpoints are no longer reached, ie. 1 shot + 1 melee no longer kills lights, 2 shots + melee no longer kills mediums, no longer letting the gun 3 shot heavies makes sense! and that's a good change, it shouldn't have the same ttks against both mediums and heavies, but even 3 shots + a melee doesn't kill a heavy. on top of this, you can no longer combo a rocket launcher, frag grenade, or charge and slam with one shot of the slug to kill a medium. it will always leave them low. i think that the damage should increase to 110 so it retains these combos, especially the melee combos, while still maintaining 2, 3, and 4 shots at base to kill light, medium, and heavy, respectively. it allows you to defend yourself at point blank range where missing a shot with a gun that fires so slowly is extremely punishing and can instantly mean you lose the fight. being able to combo with melee or damage utility also allows you to secure kills in optimal scenarios while using less ammo, which is very important since this gun has a tiny mag and it has the slowest reload speed in the game. because of the change, you're currently left slowly reloading in a vulnerable state more frequently than before the patch.

the accuracy buff was needed imo, however its really odd that its still just as inaccurate as before while in the air which was one of its main weak points.

the projectile speed buff is nice however that change doesn't really make sense when the gun had its range so harshly reduced at the same time. its damage falloff starts at 18 meters and ends at 23 now which is incredibly steep. since you're basically tickling people past 20 meters (which feels awful) and within that short range, the projectile is so fast that you don't have to lead your shot at all anymore. it feels like it may as well be hitscan since at the new range where you do need to lead your shot, you aren't even dealing enough damage for it to matter. i think the range was fine as is was before, and lowering the projectile speed and increasing the range closer to what it was previously would bring back more skill to using the weapon and also make those medium to long range shots (30-40m) actually feel more rewarding again. i miss that satisfying feeling of perfectly leading a shot and chunking someone for 100 damage.

the rate of fire increase feels nice, but if the damage were to increase up to 110, i would be happy to have its rate of fire reduced to balance it out, as the benefits it gains from that 10 damage far outweigh slightly faster firing.

overall i think the change was a step in the right direction, but the damage breakpoint changes leaves the user out of ammo and vulnerable more often, with too little options to synergize with the gun, or reduce its time to kill at all, even in its best scenarios. i hope there is still consideration for tweaking the gun more to get it into the spot it needs to be. right now i don't see it being viable especially at high level play, and its just flat out not fun to use anymore.

[thorny latch]

bring back the old fcar

[stray rampart]

Disagreed with C4. It's basically a worse version of the breach charge now and I have atleast 5 other ways to knock cashouts/make path. It's just not worth a slot anymore.

Nukes could be solved simply by removing the ability to use 2 C4 on the arena throwables, making it crash and destroy immediately when thrown. And one C4 would make it fly with the S1 last physics. Instead they went for a magical approach where the C4 magically shuts itself down. Been saying this before nukes even became popular!

Everything else I agree!

Bottom line is, overpowered mechanics like instant toggle info gathering or one shots shouldn't exist in this game but nerfing anything back to back without making and adjusting counterplay is one of the most bullshit approach ever. Not to mention the game just loses it's uniqueness and identity. If i wanted to play COD or CS, I'll just download those.

Not to mention the nerfs and balance decisions themselves are based around player retention this season.

Whiners will simply leave after realizing it's their own mistakes that's getting them killed even after all these buffs and nerfs (actually happening atm)

[sly kindle]

ranked is awful, i love the game but ranked is just full of cheaters plus being qued against diamonds and plat as a gold 4 is about as awful as apex's que system

[granite inlet]

My 2 cents/shouting into the void:

• Assigning contracts to ranked activities is a bad idea. I have no intention of playing ranked, so I won't be able to complete Challenger Stage 3

• I agree with all Skul's points from just above. Some of the changes are coming at the detriment of fun

• The KS23 still feels inconsistent

• Big rant about footstep audio:

I'm still waiting for footstep sounds to be improved/overhauled. I'm absolutely sick to death of people sprinting up behind me without making a single sound. Directional footstep sounds should be an absolute priority in the audio mix and one should be able to easily hear enemy players, unless they're crouch walking.

This is particularly egregious when combined with invis. I have no problem with an invis ability, as long as I can still hear them moving. You've removed the hard counter to invis but kept it completely untouched. Footsteps would be an obviousu counter. (I also think being invis should produce a much more noticeable audio cue and should perhaps even muffle sound for the person using it - it needs a downside)

Less emphasis on superfluous ambient sounds and a focus on sound as a utility, would be extremely welcome.

• Edit: Completely forgot to mention the biggest barrier to playing the game - rampant cheating. It's going to kill the game very quickly.

[smoky hearth]

tdm mode but its restricted to 1/8th ish of a map

[quick coyote]

No I played power shift and won and nothing went up

[frank belfry]

I think it would be cool if career levels were infinite just the rewards that end at level 50, the level of a player is displayed near his name

[violet elbow]

I personally still use C4 on Heavy in Diamond/Plat lobbies and I think we can agree to disagree on its strength tbh.

Nerfs to gunplay are killing this game rn, the whiners will ruin the game and then leave to ruin another game as they always do.

This game during open beta had some of the greatest gunplay ive seen in an FPS in the last decade, and with every update more and more of that is being lost in an attempt at appealing to people who wouldnt be playing this game a year from now no matter what.

as much as people love melee weapons and abilities, the core of an FPS is its gunplay, if the gunplay is bad, then the FPS is bad, and this game is losing its identity with every update and im at a point where im not willing to spend money anymore because Im unsure if I'll still be able to use them a year from now

[woeful perch]

I honestly think the FCAR nerf was just to make room for the Famas in the meta. I mean FCAR was dominating close, medium, and long range gun fights out to 60 meters. Making it less viable at the longer range gives a reason for you to use the new gun that should have more of a focus on taking the slightly longer range fights. They even just buffed the Famas recoil to make it more consistent.

It could just be my opinion, but I feel Embark is trying to pivot slightly away from certain guns to always be the answer. Like go back a patch or 2, and the argument to use any gun as medium is "well FCAR just does it better" in almost all situations. This is the thing I think Embark is trying to change.

This is all opinions and I could be wrong.

[solid narwhal]

Please add kbm back to console, controller is just too bland, also give us some modes to practice in like a run and gun aim practice where the npcs are not just standing still or being well.. npcs. Kind of like what call of duty does in their tutorials. Thanks for your time reading this! Also fix the cheating problem

[high wing]

Come on Embark, fix the revolver, its hitbox or hitreg is so fucking unreliable, shooting a heavy 6 times in his back and 1 hits.

[thick sorrel]

If they catch a cheater they just make new account. Its a never ending story.
Thats why I beg for no matchmaking with Blocked Players. This way everybody can handle cheaters themself. I'm sick of playing against the same cheater over and over again.

[upbeat urchin]

problem is that 90% of fights are within 30m aka optimum range for fcar, so fcar will remain dominant not matter what. range is not the issue, nb of bullets to kill is (and hipfire spread)

[somber ruin]

omg, is someone else stuck on the ''deal 5,000 damage to opponents with grenades'' ?? im at 4,969 and it wont go up anymore wtf

[quick coyote]

It would be better if we would have one cashbox at a time in casual cashout
Having two cashbox at the same time just distribute the fight and choas
Imagine 4 teams fighting for one diabolical!
What do you guys think?

[iron terrace]

New FCAR recoil is awful

theres cheaters in almost every game.some blatant obvious and for some you cant be 100% sure.just had a dude that would only headshot with throwing knives.

[stray rampart]

Actually i wasn't disagreeing on that part (maybe i'll explain via DM later)

For the rest of the comment, this is what I've been saying for so long 💯

[remote holly]

The real game is so hard. I know that developers are putting a lot of effort into making games. But as a user who enjoys playing games, it's very hard to play games because of the hack. The people who use cheat programs are also Chinese. It's really hard. Playing games every time itself is painful. There are even a lot of Chinese people who use Korean as nicknames or use racist Korean nicknames. Do you know how ridiculous this is? I really beg you. Please make a separate team that can catch the users of cheat programs or just capture and manage the hack

[bronze lagoon]

anybody here got restricted from matchmaking? I failed to join a bunny bash match twice for some unknown reason and then on the third one I got restricted from matchmaking with reason being abandoning matches. I've never abandoned a match even in rank when I'm left alone. tf is happening lmao

[obsidian plinth]

Just got the same error, maybe a hotfix is coming through?

[rapid stream]

Good.

[pale crane]

i just had a timeout after a game and it was 4 vs 1, maybe server issues

[plain patio]

same

[misty owl]

FIX THE THERMAL VISION

It doesn't work properly in certain places, and especially when you're invisible and using sniper(SR-84)

[thorn mural]

Same. Got fatal errors on relaunch. Logging into my Embark account on Google seemed to fix it

[quick coyote]

make increase the throwing knives primary to have a faster mv so you don't have to lead shots from ~6-7m away

[oblique olive]

if throwing knives and dagger is not getting a buff, please fix your anti cheat instead

[crimson basin]

Agreed. I'm pure casual player, I enjoy game here and there and can grind all other challenges over time but this feels like really forced and wrong thing to do.

[quick coyote]

KS23 is unable to use ADS, please fix this garbage

[waxen flame]

The cheating on this game is out of control, a guy dropped 40 kills no deaths as a light in ranked, was silver 2, then when the game ended it said he only had 4 with 8 deaths😂 actual crazy, got a screenshot and everything, such a joke they need to get on top of this, people wonder why it’s dead on some servers……

[exotic parrot]

Devs you have to listen to the Chinese player base! We are all very unhappy about the nerfs made! A lot of people have since quit the game due to every thing being nerfed! Please listen to our concerns !

[quick coyote]

Power shift just doesn't feel like it fits and should be taken out, especially with the pre made loadout choices, they aren't good and feel restrictive, at least let us choose our stuff

[final skiff]

Cry a river, I’ll keep doing it too and nothing you can do to stop me!

[shy cedar]

I've been having an issue of reload animations (jackpot juggle) not staying equipped to the AKM so I equip it to my medium build in the contestant area and then when i enter a game i'm still getting the standard tactical reload animation. I think this is true for other weapons too but the AKM with jackpot juggle is the main example i have.

[sudden tangle]

THE HEALTH DIFF BETWEEN CLASSES IS WAY TOO BIG! 100HP IS INSANE. THAT'S ALMOST A FULL LIGHT'S HP BETWEEN EACH CLASS! IT SHOULD BE 50HP, OR EVEN 25HP!

[terse lark]

I don't really like how they have been balancing stuff as of late. all these small buffs and nerfs are annoying and don't change enough to actually impact the meta.

[vapid crystal]

no

[upper citrus]

no lmao. it’s fine. really the only huge balance issues with the game are the fcar, lewis gun, and rpg. nerf those, rework taser to be less obnoxious, and slightly buff underperforming items

[crimson egret]

That’s ok - the more wrong reports you do, the less weight will your reports carry.

[open pier]

matchmaking feels so bad atm did they change something?

[shy fossil]

DELETE AIM ASSIST FOR MELEE AAAA (If I'm angry, the melee does a 180 degree turn and doesn't hit anything, how tedious.)

[violet elbow]

FCAR and Lewis need their recoil nerfs reverted and actual nerfs to their TTK/Damage for meaningful Change

[real kernel]

I've played my 12 games of Bunny Bash and it was the least fun I've had playing this game. We won 2 games, got crushed in all the other one, never really able to get on point... Unfun mode for me

[inland vine]

Wrong GAME MODE,you can still Play normal Power Shift in the casual playlist

[quick coyote]

exactly lol, i be clearing the whole match with ma fcar 💀

[worn ravine]

is there sumn wrong wit servers again or is it just me?

[tough willow]

Melee players should be able to parry the stun gun.

[haughty zephyr]

there is so much cheaters, one game : 2 cheaters in a same team .

[quick coyote]

my point still stands for power shift as a mode whether it's the event/the regular version of it, it's not really appealing in general (and the event feels even worse than the default because of the restrictive inventories), it feels very sluggish and not as engaging as the other modes like bank it/quick cash

[primal spoke]

Let us buy items in a bundle separately

[quick coyote]

its pretty clear you arent playing heavy. the rpg is terrible; the guaranteed aim inconsistency paired with the fact that self damage thresholds are nearly 1/3 above enemy damage thresholds means that shooting the thing is synonymous to debuffing yourself. its great for destruction, and thats it. +2 for stun gun tho

@toxic shadow the lower limit damage diameter is 10.5 meters. go back to general chat

[vale acorn]

Scout has 125 and Heavy has 300 in Team Fortress 2, fast little guys are fragile for a reason

[queen cloud]

Dam, I miss beta AK. They ruined recoil on it to make fcar competitive. Now they also nerf fcar.
And it was the most fun gun to use. Doing those clean spray transfers felt amazing.

Now gunplay isn't rewarding anymore. Movement/mechanics were already bad/out of sync/not precise.
I really don't enjoy the game anymore honestly. Instead of fixing movement, they made gunplay worse...

I really don't get why devs think adding shit ton of visual recoil/recoil/bullet dispersion is a good way to balance any gun. Like why is the revolver soo inacurate!!? Feels absolutly awful to use.
I don't like the direction the devs are taking the game. Focus is not on gunplay/movement and skill like it should it.

[cunning niche]

I just read the fair play rules, i know understand why there is so many cheaters, bye bye dead game, i liked you.

[upper granite]

give light either 175hp, nerf heavy to 325 or 300 or give light way faster regen/a stim gadget for health ty!

[toxic shadow]

have you tried shooting it at your opponents when theyre at least 3m away from you? not hitting yourself with the rpg is quite easy for anyone with a single braincell idk why youre acting like its guaranteed to take self damage when using it

[unique wasp]

I find it a little funny that you think the gunplay is the defining feature of this game that needs to be protected- from the very start they've shown emphasis on abilities and destruction. They put nukes into a bunch of trailers before they were nerfed, even. The steam page IIRC even had a little section where it talks about how they want you to use smart and creative strategies rather than just raw headclicker gunplay.

Don't get me wrong, having high TTK and recoil patterns without much movement-incurred bloom is great and I like the idea of damage nerfs (like inverse damage scaling) before recoil nerfs for problematic weapons like the lewis/SCAR for the most part, but the gadget/movement/destruction interplay is like, 100% the interesting and novel part of this game. I've often felt the opposite of what you feel, that leaning more towards aimduels would make the game more generic and less interesting.

[mystic adder]

To devs if you could see this please fix SSBM I don’t wanna queue up with an enemy team who are DIAMONDS while me and my friend are hard stuck Gold right now and got our butts kicked by a full squad of lights

[glacial storm]

day 2 of lobbying for ks-23 to get more range and 110 damage per shot even if it means less rate of fire

[upper citrus]

if you are ever hitting yourself with the rpg consistently then no offense but you might to need rethink your choice of game genre and perhaps play something like stardew valley. the rpg gets up to 420 damage in a single shot if you get all 3 enemies in one and does an instant 140 to anyone caught off guard. it’s so incredibly easy to not point it at your feet and hit yourself. it’s easily one of the best gadgets in the game behind defib and dome shield and maybe 1 or 2 others

[odd forge]

As for the "they are trying to make Famas the long range gun" excuse for ruining SCAR, Famas has iron sights, making it worse by default at longer ranges
It feels like they destroyed the medium's ARs just to make space for a shitty burst fire weapon nobody will ever use because burst fire weapons suck ass in every single game they are

And as for the general state of the game in season 2 from my point of view, well, let's just say I stay the hell away from ranked and mainly play light in quick cash and this time the reason ain't because I enjoy bullying quick cash Timmies (although that was made significantly easier thanks to the removal of Recon Sensen).

[wide summit]

bro what are you on?

[terse lark]

I wish but that defeats the point of bundles

[vestal basin]

When will you do something about those thilfy china cheaters? They are there since the game release

[white lily]

They can only do something against cheaters, not just against Asian cheater (probably 90%)

[frigid nexus]

Stop the ranked bullshit— at least as requirements for achievements

[fallen mirage]

Keep the bundles, and make them more cost-effective than buying all the items individually, but give people that option...

[lapis pollen]

Whatever, I gonna take a break and leave this game a while.

Devs make melee players very disappointed especially dagger and riot shield mains.

Ks-23 got adjust (no matter it is buff or nerf) in two week after s2.

Soon huh?

Guess how long you have ignored Dagger and riot shield? A whole season! They are the wrost weapon in game! You can't use skill gap to hide how shit they are. Even top player can't make it viable against lower elo players while useing them!

Ks-23 was not even bad but still got buff/nerf faster then any melee!

I have so many question I had asked again and again. Why you change dagger? Why don't revert it to OB version? There is even no single annoumenst that you nerfed dagger at launch in every patch note. Why you igonre dagger and riot shield for four months and claim your balanced is based on data?

[deep sierra]

I’m glad the fcar got a nerf but it’s still really good and I believe it’s not safe from a 3rd nerf. I think other weapons should get a buff to compete a bit better with the fcar instead of nerfing it again. So this weapon keeps its roll as a long range battle rifle. Like buff the Akm damage from 20 to 22 and make the famas have a slightly more accurate through out the mag.

[tame crag]

ignoring all the typos, I think 1. there is not enough data on the dagger since not many use it, and 2. it was never fully intended to be a competitive weapon.

[subtle verge]

Make guns a bit more customisable maybe like scopes ect

[foggy orbit]

It is easily solved by making the whole bundle a discount compared to buying items individually

[lunar vault]

one day dagger wont be complete torture to use right guys?

[vapid aurora]

yes i want that to

[earnest magnet]

get rid of hackers
add easter skins

[fast cave]

With the new Ariad face you can not see the "calm cool lenses" eyes

[sly estuary]

They didnt fix anything MM is still one of the worst i play in any game. They still put diamond stack vs random gold 4 people

[potent wraith]

I am going to get a lot of hate for this, but:

There are so many nerfs and more nerfs to come in order to pamper the majority of players who can't aim or just play casually. Every class had something OP in OB, and that was ok. But no, noobs asked to nerf stun, defib, nuke, RPG, shields, all auto guns. You keep draining the fun of the game by listening to these COD kids that want to bring everyone to a 50% "fairness".

I get the spirit of Embark wanting to do something different and re-inventing the wheel, which in some areas you guys had great success. Balancing doesn't need to be re-invented to be balanced, just take it from other games. In an FPS it's not all about TTK. You can't take someone's opinion seriously when they're a sitting duck 99% of the time in a match and get beamed by an AR or die to a heavy shotgun that managed to get near them.

Just remove this channel completely and revert back to how gadgets/abilities/weapons were in OB at this point.

[quartz cedar]

Stuff like the nuke simply had to go, it wasnt even fun to use, but necessary, because u had potential to insta wipe teams with 2 buttons. 0 skill required

[spare peak]

I’d love to see a mode where you gain cash by holding on to the vault the longest and keeping it away from the other teams the entire match. I’d also like an all out deathmatch mode where kills are cash you keep not have to bank similar to kill confirmed but cash confirmed. throwing stars for the throwing knives please for my ninja 🥷 build. Also make the game more accessible for new players while not hurting the current dope ass player base, and add something else we can use that weak ass VRS on besides gadgets and rerolls.

[drifting gorge]

Just win guys it's not that hard

[jaunty pawn]

This Music is 10/10!!!!!!

[woeful perch]

Not saying you are wrong. Just wanted to point out what I think Embark was thinking

[glad lance]

Embark version of this

[hasty citrus]

Fcar should be semi auto imo

[obtuse wedge]

so true lol. OB has insane success, but look where we are rn, I don’t even think most people are happy compared to to the OB (other than cheaters issue being one of the major problems that just unfortunately can’t be fixed in anytime soon)

[lapis pollen]

1. there is not enough data on the dagger since not many use it
   This shouldn’t be a reason to do nothing for four months.

"2. it was never fully intended to be a competitive weapon."
If devs really think like that, tell me and I will just leave instead wasting time playing this damn game. Dagger in ob is the only thing attract me in this game. It's viable that time and fascinating.
It's ridiculous to choose the worst possible way to ruin a better version when it already exists.

If devs are afraid that it will become op(though it's far from op even in beta), just nerf it in the next update, especially when they update every week

[dusk forge]

ban light class from ranked games, they are useless af. Make them cimeotitve again then release it to ranked mode again

[rich fox]

there’s a new face ?

[inland vine]

Why is it always the Sys Horizon on ranked.Got it now 8 times in a row

[obsidian solar]

Ignore him, it's the type of player that only wants meta weapons to stay viable and anything out of the ordinary has to stay bad, he's scared
Bet he would say the same on the shield

[void creek]

NA matchmaking is broken for me

[vestal basin]

When will you do something about those thilfy china cheaters? They are everywhere since the game release

[opal widget]

I crave an embark version of that

[vale acorn]

What if they just merged throwing knives and dagger into one multipurpose knife with both the ability to backstab and throw the knife

[next pike]

How many times must the rpg be nerfed?????!?!?!?

[vapid aurora]

Let us buy items from a bundle separately

[upper citrus]

until you’re not throwing by not having it equipped on a build. how all gadgets should be. a choice instead of an obligation

[frigid nexus]

Why start me in ranked with only 1 other fucking team mate?

[fast cave]

Level 96 of battlepass

[vestal coral]

but do you want to remove this stun gun or not? What is a toxic gadget?

[leaden bone]

Please return the unranked tournament. The cash out mode is loose and many people are leaving the game to the point where it is unplayable.

[willow yoke]

make that damn glitch effect gone its hurting my eyes, while being dead

[tender orbit]

Can we please get STICKERS & CHARMS on BARRICADES

[unique wasp]

See I don't really mind feeling obligated to take a gadget if it's a fun gadget, which the RPG is. It has so many potential applications that I'm rarely like "oh, I'm taking this boring thing again?"

It also makes Heavy's less viable and more fun weapons much more usable with it doing good damage, which is nice and not something I'd want to see go. Maybe you could call that a design flaw, but I dunno. stuff like following up an RPG blast with a KS shot for a quick kill was fun.

Also if there's any part of Heavy I'd genuinely like to see touched, it's shields, Dome and Mesh alike. I've said this before, but IMO the "get in, kill everyone" playstyle of Heavy is very fun, but Heavy should have to work a little to close distance and have to be under threat while they're doing it. Shields are not only boring as sin to use but they make getting in and oppressing people way too trivial.

[violet radish]

can we get an anti cheat or? lmfao

[grizzled torrent]

and un ban my buddy while your at it he didnt do anything

[devout basin]

Sent about 5-10 appeals, via the Embark website, some for almost a year I think, but never got a response to any of them. Excellent technical support.

[solar verge]

If you PC has no cheats or "other" software you will never get banned

[quick coyote]

bring back fame points. fixed ranked i shouldn’t be playing against a triple stack full diamond as a solo queue gold. Do something about hackers almost every game i come across one

[clear swallow]

@grizzled torrent @devout basin not sure how Embark handles it's ban list, but my experience with EAC protected games is that EAC themselves handle banned players with little input from devs/pubs. You could try to make an appeal with them, but I can't say how that would go

[sleek blade]

Embark......

[meager remnant]

Kinda shit that you cant change how ur character looks in the easter gamemode ngl

[sharp maple]

The ranked system needs a rework... I get what they were going for but rank needs to take priority in matchmaking not some bs elo.

[vale acorn]

I think this game could benefit from a sort of exit shooter mode like tarkov where where you go in with a basic specialization and one weapon and earn the rest of your gadgets in the arena while you loot high value game show rewards like vouchers for cars and houses. The price is right meets The Running Man.

[fast cave]

40-50% less fps since latest patch (DLSS/DLAA && 1080p @ NVIDIA RTX 4070 super, AMD 5800X), render latency decreased from 30ms+ to ~6ms

[polar mist]

Low Gravity is a disadvantageous event for players using melee weapons (such as swords, sledgehammers and riot shields). I think it's interesting, but I think it's unfair.

[obsidian grail]

SERVER DELAY< LAAAGGGG

[quick coyote]

Also worth mentioning, they've removed to option to leave a ranked tournament if you're missing teammates leaving you with not choice to get a free loss or being rewarded with a nice temporary tournament ban if you dare to leave... Any words about that <@&1009839355801636904> ?

[sonic spoke]

You can close gaps like long roof jumps and smash with the hammer. I didn't mind low gravity at all as a melee heavy.

[cinder folio]

This feedback I am so happy we are understanding the culture of THE FINALS... it's all about destruction, mayhem, and chaos. Aim duels are part of the game, but the game is about carnage. The game really defines "dynamic destruction" and nerfing explosives is counterintuitive!

[crimson pilot]

Too many cheaters in this Game.
Its unplayable right now ...
Maybe Autobann on 20 Reports in 1 Day or 20 Headshots in a short time

[somber trail]

the servers are fucked theres too much lag and why the fuck am i playing against the chinese if im based in spain

[lyric parrot]

to answer your chinese question. There aren't enough chinese playing on the chinese servers, so the switch to eu.

[cunning vortex]

My favorite game, but EVERYTIME i play i end up not wanting to play it anymore because of the GOD D4AM CHEATERS!!! Can you PLEASE prioritize banning them¿?¿? This is going down if you dont!... I've been asking for this since day one!

[foggy orbit]

revert dagger

[stone fractal]

An I crazy or did they change the way you get respawn tokens in ranked tournament? I'm seeing all kinds of different numbers that I don't understand

[quick coyote]

We won't stand the radio silence on the Dagger nerf forever.

Revert Dagger.

[grizzled hornet]

Dagger is for the weak willed men who can’t stand to fight people face to face. I believe that only fallen sigmas like me are the ones whose use riot shield and sledgehammer, unlike those backstabbing wannabes. Boowomp. Xoxo.

[somber patrol]

New weekly challenges are nightmare for casual player

[limpid scroll]

When there's less than a minute left in a game auto open vaults so it's not useless

[cloud spear]

is the 3rd reward in leagues bugged?

[wooden storm]

Ranked Queues are broken, sat in queue for over an hour on NA servers never found a game and just gave up playing

[nimble valve]

Forcing casuals to play ranked just to level up your battle pass is a nightmare pls change the contract

[fluid anchor]

increasing the ks-23s damage to 110 could be perfect since you regain the ability to combo the shotgun with frag grenades or rocket launcher against mediums (+melee combo on lights) while retaining the base shots to kill of:
2 for light, 3 for medium, 4 for heavy
it also really needs its damage falloff to not be so steep and a reload speed buff. theres just no way it will be viable the way it is

[wispy steeple]

can we get the option to turn off the effects on certain outfits like the wild west one or the ariad cns one since the latter's effect can be seen through smoke

[fierce valve]

I'd like to see a 1 v 5 mode where it's 1 heavy with 1 life and 100k health versus 5 other characters at normal health with 5 respawns each.

[stone aurora]

Damn I see the removal of Bank-it didn't last long which is nice because usually that is all I play but recently I've been playing power shift just for the contracts but I've found at first I wasn't a fan but now I don't mind playing it. Just gotta switch ur playstyle a lil bit is all.

[quartz cedar]

Glitch Trap
Reduced the duration of glitch effect from 10s to 5s

Glitch Grenade
Reduce the duration of glitch effect from 10s to 5s

---

Change these to 7.5 seconds or to 8 seconds. 5 seconds is not enough.

[vale acorn]

The solution is everyone queue on the Chinese servers to avoid the Chinese players who are avoiding themselves

[covert ermine]

are the servers acting strange today? i had some of the worst rubberbanding for a few matches now. also waiting 10 plus minutes to get a match.

[sonic spoke]

They probably changed their preferred region so they are not playing against a bunch of other hackers, and can take advantage of the ping difference to their benefit.

[crimson egret]

Why exactly?

[somber trail]

One of them was spinbotting with a scar

[lyric parrot]

True that hahahaha

[fiery patio]

Game/Event mode idea: Dematerializer Labyrinth. All players have medium with demat. Map that is either labyrinth or large building(s) with plenty of walls and low visibility. Restricted guns (shotgun, x, y). Players jump through walls not knowing what expects them on the other side.

[terse agate]

Sniper only game mode 🤪

[clear swallow]

Charge heavy is my preferred playstyle, and low gravity/anti-grav cubes are the bane of my existence. I can't count the number of times i've whiffed a slam because of the extended fall time

[north vault]

yes king

[subtle oak]

Couldn’t agree more

[sacred cypress]

i accidentally pressed tourney search and immediately cancelled it, yet after a game of quick cash i got the message that im banned from playersearch for 9 minutes. Even tho it hasnt even found a match or anything

[brittle latch]

Yeah especially during the Bunny event you'll notice it happen more often. Do you also sometimes get stuck in Goo??? I noticed it a lot during the Bunny event when I would jump slam my character would like slow motion start clipping into Goo Lol.

[clever hawk]

Low grav is amazing for charge n slam. You can perform high damage slams at pretty much any moment

[magic beacon]

When are they going to make ranked actually good 💀

[untold star]

Are the servers the same as few hours ago? I had terrible lagg, rubberbanding

[lunar vault]

i respect the riot shield but sledge? thats for people who know how to tell the difference in crayons based on flavor

[pseudo barn]

man I did all my ranked matched and only twice did I get eliminated in the first round, also made the finals once but lost.. and it made me a bronze. Since then I have been playing ranked against golds and higher rank silvers almost exclusively which makes no sense and I won a tournament the other day and it didnt even boost me out of bronze still. Mad annoying

[quick coyote]

Riot shield is just as trash if not in a worse spot than dagger. You should be concerned about the state of melee weapons instead of rambling zoomer "sigma" shit.

[fluid anchor]

https://steamcommunity.com/app/2073850/discussions/0/4362372646222449694/ and also ranked is full of cheaters in every server apparently

[past steeple]

In Asia server, the Winning of the tournament is IMPOSSIBLE because i have tried for 3 hours, but LITERALLY IN EVERY MATCH, There were the AIMBOT cheaters, even SHHOTING THROUGH THE DANG MESH SHEILD. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I'm really frusting that the circuit quest obviously shows the Embark Studios doesn't get any sense, anything about what is actually going on the ranked game that they had made. WHAT A IRRESPONSIBLE. YOU GUYS DONT HAVE ANY EXCUSES ABOUT THIS

[sonic spoke]

I completely believe that. Don't get how that doesn't result in an instant kick/ban though.

[neon bloom]

powershift is legitimately the more competitive mode when compared to the 3rd and 4th party fest that high level ranked tournaments are.

[somber trail]

powershift is brain dead spamming and boring as hell

[odd ibex]

Finally someone admits it,there is zero strategy and it’s grenade spamming on the platform and getting beamed by 6 players at once lol.

[lost surge]

Change the 1 tournament win challenge in dog chit and will never get that

[quick coyote]

ranked powershift, remove quickcash and cashout

[hollow dew]

give heavy a skateboard

[somber patrol]

This x2

[hexed sapphire]

bring back solo bank it! 😁

[fresh shell]

+1, hate playing tournaments (or cashout really). limited respawns with kill incentive is stupid.

[gloomy atlas]

Hey Embark — Hear me out…

• Light Build HP Buff — 180 HP

Let’s just do it for like 1 month. And see if it needs balancing.

Thoughts??? 👀

😩🙌🏿🥲

[floral hedge]

Once again yelling at Embark that it’s insane to remove unranked tournaments the same week you put in a “win a tournament” challenge.

Fix this crap.

[pearl urchin]

Embark is working on the anticheat as we speak

[shut bane]

No it will be overpowered

Give it stim or healing his self

[sonic wigeon]

I thought i fixed the ranked lobbies, queued up as silver and gold and got matched against diamonds.. Im bout to uninstall this fcking game.

[uneven rampart]

Borrowing this image from @wary hedge

Idea credit: @lunar creek

I saw this and instantly thought of Life of Boris which mean Gobniks, and what do I mean with Gobnik?

We need a Gobnik Squat emote / intro. Imagine just squatting with full adiddas / Ospuze clothes, looking like The Finals gobnik!

We could have a Vodka bottle / molotov as a pyro grenade!

[vestal basin]

From day 1, YES

[visual moat]

No need to be shitty about it.

But yeah, they need to remove the challenge. No consideration for some servers not having the demand for ranked tourneys (such as Oceanic. Mine.)

[remote holly]

Please catch the cheat program user.

[hardy bridge]

Add a randomizer ltm where any class can use any weapon any spec and any gadget and its random and resets every respawn

[dusty igloo]

Melee aim assist still can not be turned off and it has lost me fights at least five times by now, with the defib changes the aim assist also locks onto it, please give us an option to turn it off

[obsidian solar]

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD:
Here's some suggestions, I know all of these together would make the shield pretty strong but even 1 or 2 would be enough to improve it so much!:

• While blocking movement speed should be the same as walking (increasing block movement speed would help a lot in pushing and giving your teammates support)
• Increase swing speed (Honestly a lot issues would be solve with this, the weapon lacks a good ttk)
• Lunge distance (90% of the fight become a chase you can't win, the other classes have ways to block enemies, slow them down or catch up to them, even heavies have RPG to finish people off if they use sledge)
• Increase damage from 84 to 90 (to kill heavies in 4 hits instead of 5)
• Electrify the baton and give it a glitch effect, when you hit somebody they're glitched for 2,5 sec (This would give the shield so much utily and would help the team greatly, making it a viable options)
• Remove the fov zoom when you hold your shield up (it's very annoying that when you block the screen zooms in, either remove it or add the option to choose between affected or indipendent fov while aiming)

ALLOW MELEE WEAPONS TO KEEP SPRITING WHEN ATTACKING:

• This would help them to compete

IMPROVE MELEE TRACKING:

• Some weapons like the Dagger have an insane lock that is not needed, on the other hand the Riot Shield has a very weak lock, you can't even hit people in your face sometimes. Consider increasing the angle at which the lock works and reduce the lock strenght on the Dagger

FIX THE DAGGER BACKSTAB:

• Backstabs with the Dagger are the most incosistent thing I've ever seen, a lot times either nothing happens or it's not backstab even though you're right behind them and other times it is when you're literally in front of them
• Increase the backstab hitboxes because the latency of the servers causes this problems
• Make it so you can hold the backstab and it's not a forced animation, revert it like it was in the OB
  @pearl kiln take a look please🙏

[trim charm]

3rd Party engagements feel unrewarding.

Is it possible for cash outs to spawn closer together so that teams have the option of pivoting to the other cash out instead of being locked into a single option?

[cobalt blaze]

it realy sucks if you want to rejoin A REANKED MATCH and right after you click rejoin your geames crashes wow gj!!!! and couse of that crash i got a 10 min bann rlly fun game that is -.-

Did they change light grenade launcher? i see it much more in use and it seems like it does no more self damage?

[lapis oriole]

Rework the stun gun to be like that annoying taser from Payday, where you have to hold it instead of a quick stun:

• The light can freely move and jump (no sprint)
• The light can't change to weapons/gadgets while holding the trigger

The affected remains with the same effects for 3.5-5s or until the light releases the trigger. Maybe increasing the cooldown of the stun gun is a fair balance

And what is the impact on gameplay?

• More teamwork
• Less stun guns in match
• Has counter/disadvantages
• More survivability for light/Less lethality

Basically becomes a evil healing beam to hold/oppress opponents depending on the circumstances. For 1v1 instances, it's no longer a 70/30, the affected can choose to shoot the light with no ADS or prepare for a quick draw after 3.5-5s or until the light changes their equipment.

[smoky gust]

Maybe a bit much
But id welcome something along those lines

Even if just to prove that the stun gun shouldnt be the way it is, and is only held back by light being bad

[smoky storm]

Game feels excellent from a balance perspective in S2!

However, there is one major thing I would like to see improved about the game:** visual clarity**.
I often feel as if I'm not shooting at targets, but at health bars because the targets are visually impossible to see during gameplay. It's a similar problem that some battlefields had - people often complained about shooting at doritoes instead of enemies, except this game is significantly worse in respect with visual clarity. If health bars were disabled, I believe this game would be completely unplayable as far as actually seeing targets is concerned - and imo, health bars being the primary way to see enemies during fights is pretty lame for a first person shooter.

1. Give us the option to disable TAA and other anti-aliasing COMPLETELY

2. remove the visual recoil completely - visual recoil is unacceptable, you should not be mislead about where your bullets are going. Either match the bullet impact up to the gun sight(so shots deviate from center of screen), or the gun sight up to the bullet impact(so the sight always shows center of screen)

3. Famas needs a red dot, holo, or 2x. It's irons are horrible to use and the gun is otherwise very bad relative to other options. Even if the famas is numerically superior, it will still be unenjoyable to use due to the horrible iron sights that this gun sports

4. customizable hit markers and crosshairs, for both hipfire and ADS/Scoped weapons

5. more here: #👂┇game-feedback message

**point 1) is the most important - many people get eye strain and/or headaches from games with forced blurs, and TAA is extremely blurry, especially during motion. There are currently no options available for people who suffer from this. If nothing else, removing TAA and/or AA and other blurs is an accessibility issue. **

6. Additional suggestions: DB Shotty/ Sniper Rework: #👂┇game-feedback message

7. DGB + LG rework/adjustments: #👂┇game-feedback message

8. Ladders should NOT be autoclimb. Having an option for "press f to climb" would be extremely welcome, and there are many spots where ladders can be completely removed - a prime example are the ones heading into attics. You often "catch" on the ladders during fights in the upper floor of these buildings and your character starts climbing while you are trying to navigate the building, which always leads to a death.

[quaint forge]

Please fix the match making… I’m doing ranked and I’m going up against diamond players and I’m more of a casual player, and it’s annoying having to deal with people who play this game 24/7

[thorny parcel]

I second everything this person says. But I think the balance needs a bit more work. It is better than season 1 though.

[odd ibex]

global launch(gun balances was close to being good)player had too much health so a little bit faster time to kill would have been perfect but the balance now is weird where smgs and sword auto aim is crazy.
The ks 23 feels like an inferior version of revolver with destruction that’s too situational to be needed with such low damage to reward accuracy.
Increase damage but increase bullet drop(not projectile speed)
It’s an instant loss against medium grenade launcher against lights and annoying to other classes.
Decrease (right side)horizontal swing range of sword as u can hit with out looking.
I don’t know if it’s a bug but fix the slight input delay of evasive dash as it goes in crazy direction when using it while turning.
The dagger needs to hook on walls holding secondary attack and wall jump further while hooking and add a fast downward thrust attack that does 120 damage or backstab,also a faster slide using dagger,a slide/half step when u double tap left or right to get a better position or evade.
Add the bow and arrow to medium inspired from the game crisis3.
Add the auto cross from farcry4 to heavy.
Nerf turret range and fire rate or make damage based of percentage of maximum health.
Or at the very least make have different weapons balance for different game mode vs ranked.

Are you in a party with the other 2? a lot of games tend to skew matchmaking to highest rating in the party; given you're gold 1, not surprising you're matching against plats (can't say if that's actually the case with this game or what is happening here)

Rank changes

Add more ranks, the match making for this game is usually 1 diamond team queue with 3 silvers/gold teams. Either dia team stomps the whole lobby or they get targeted by everyone.

leading to that, Turn off Shown ranks for the entire lobby, keep it where it’s only your teammates that can see your rank. It shouldn’t be the whole entirely lobby, which leads to targeting and it not fun for both parties here.

buff anti cheat or smth, feels like lately cheaters are more in rank then ever. Maybe rank requires a phone numbers to able to play? Just a suggests for that.

For now, give us rank restrictions. Let’s say the highest player in your squad is Diamond 1. You can only queue with people that are plats and gold 1 only. So one rank and 1/4 below. This would help out matches where lobbies can be filled with the correct rank/skill level match. Until we get more ranks in the game

Dia 4 still the same. Only plats and gold 1

Plats —> gold and silver 1 only etc..

stop giving me the worst players in the match, stun gun is for pussies

[glacial storm]

the recent patch changed the ks-23s damage so drastically that quite literally all of its combo damage breakpoints are no longer reached, ie. 1 shot + 1 melee no longer kills lights, 2 shots + melee no longer kills mediums, no longer letting the gun 3 shot heavies makes sense! and that's a good change, it shouldn't have the same ttks against both mediums and heavies, but even 3 shots + a melee doesn't kill a heavy. on top of this, you can no longer combo a rocket launcher, frag grenade, or charge and slam with one shot of the slug to kill a medium. it will always leave them low. i think that the damage should increase to 110 so it retains these combos, especially the melee combos, while still maintaining 2, 3, and 4 shots at base to kill light, medium, and heavy, respectively. it allows you to defend yourself at point blank range where missing a shot with a gun that fires so slowly is extremely punishing and can instantly mean you lose the fight. being able to combo with melee or damage utility also allows you to secure kills in optimal scenarios while using less ammo, which is very important since this gun has a tiny mag and it has the slowest reload speed in the game. because of the change, you're currently left slowly reloading in a vulnerable state more frequently than before the patch.

the accuracy buff was needed imo, however its really odd that its still just as inaccurate as before while in the air which was one of its main weak points.

the projectile speed buff is nice however that change doesn't really make sense when the gun had its range so harshly reduced at the same time. its damage falloff starts at 18 meters and ends at 23 now which is incredibly steep. since you're basically tickling people past 20 meters (which feels awful) and within that short range, the projectile is so fast that you don't have to lead your shot at all anymore. it feels like it may as well be hitscan since at the new range where you do need to lead your shot, you aren't even dealing enough damage for it to matter. i think the range was fine as is was before, and lowering the projectile speed and increasing the range closer to what it was previously would bring back more skill to using the weapon and also make those medium to long range shots (30-40m) actually feel more rewarding again. i miss that satisfying feeling of perfectly leading a shot and chunking someone for 100 damage.

the rate of fire increase feels nice, but if the damage were to increase up to 110, i would be happy to have its rate of fire reduced to balance it out, as the benefits it gains from that 10 damage far outweigh slightly faster firing.

overall i think the change was a step in the right direction, but the damage breakpoint changes leaves the user out of ammo and vulnerable more often, with too little options to synergize with the gun, or reduce its time to kill at all, even in its best scenarios. i hope there is still consideration for tweaking the gun more to get it into the spot it needs to be. right now i don't see it being viable especially at high level play, and its just flat out not fun to use anymore.

[frigid meteor]

I hate that contract quest... I'm stuck on it...

[odd ibex]

Make the new 4team cash out gun balance like it was at global launch where players had more health cause now it’s not fun getting beamed by 4 player’s different team.

💥I swear I have to tell u devs common sense stuff where ur balancing people honestly don’t know any better and have to go back and forth cause u people r amateurs,why do u have to wait for backlash?!
Like u can’t tell at this point medium grenade launcher don’t even have to hit lights directly but can 2 shot shooting near the legs also spammy to other classes,just hopping around corners and spamming grenades and annoying cloak that’s was not even made for this version of the game which has changed so much since launch.

Cloak invis got a buff in the visibility it’s almost impossible to see them now💀
It was made when players were tanky and had more health post global launch but now milliseconds smg melt and cloak don’t mix well.
U can have these silly things in a different game mode where players have more health.
Don’t be surprised when players leave cause I can’t play any matches and lights go invis cloak point blank and I can’t see.

Remove cloak and improve the grapple hook and improve the physics to swing and not pull u in a corner.

[plush depot]

Why does the gateway 1 dissappear now ? Is this intended or a bug? Its kinda useless like this

[molten palm]

Yeah. At least give us an update that you devs are aware of it / trying to fix it, instead of bringing out unnecessary recoil nerfs. At this point the ranked mode is a joke, I still can’t get in one no matter how long I wait and I’m tired of asking every day. Fix your servers before the gameplay

[queen cloud]

• Fix anti cheat
• Make movement feel good and snappy like other games. It feels out of sync / not precise. Jumps/vaults, interecats especially. Also jiggle peeking/playing around covers fast feels soo bad in this game.
• Remove visual recoil / screen shake / bullet dispersion. If your crosshairs are on the target, it should always hit the target.
• Improve audio. People shouldn't be able to sneak up on you without a single audio cue ever if they're running / jumping like monkeys.
• Netcode could be better. People complain about apex servers but this is 10x worse, never have I ever been shoot soo far behind cover as I do in this game.

Other than that, nothing major to report. Finally nerfed the dumb sa1216 W holders meta. No more nukes which is nice.
Balance is far from perfect but it's not terrible anymore.

What did they do to respawns? Why the fuck do we get respawn always on the other side of the map? Also, getting spawned next to cashout finishing in secons instead of kinda fresh one. Great experience, while others spawn 10/10 times next to us when we kill them.

[severe wave]

yh same for us bro its pissing me of so much. Spawns this season are horrendous. People sometimes spawn infront of us even when we didnt put cashout in and the other cashout was put in but they didnt spawn there. Wtf is embark doing. Balancing wise the game is good but those spawns are fk Trash. Idk why they changed it like WHY. Season 1 spawns where amazing @lost ivy Sometimes we wipe teams 5 times in a game and WE lose one time then we get spawned 200 meters from our cashout and lose because all teams third party us. The thing is third partying ok embark cant do anything against that. BUT CHANGE THOSE DAMN SPAWNS

[glacial storm]

the ks-23 has a huge problem of leaving people 1 hp during fights, it meets no combo break points anymore for melees or grenade/rocket/charge against medium. it even hitting a charge + slam + ks-23 shot doesn't kill a heavy. the projectile speed is faster and the accuracy is better so hitting shots may be a little easier, but you're needing to use more ammo to get kills than before so you end up sitting with your pants down reloading more often than before. also the range is so much worse than before in combination with the lower base damage means it feels so unsatisfying to hit people with at medium range. the only point at which the ks-23 deals more damage than it used to is past 44m of range which is completely irrelevant. it feels bad to use in close quarters fights due to constantly leaving enemies at 1 hp. it can put holes in walls easier now, sure, but heavy already has 10 different ways to do that. this shotgun needs to be able to perform better in combat and right now it struggles

[topaz jetty]

After playing in all of the betas, and still playing today, ranked could use a little bit of love. It's not exactly in the most healthy state currently, nor has it really been due to the nature of how classes operate in this game, but here's some food for thought

Ranked Restrictions: For ranked, there's only a handful of comps/loadouts that are running lobbies at higher ranks. Would be neat to test out limiting ranked to 1 light, 1 medium, 1 heavy for each team, OR restricting loadouts so there's only one of each gadget/spec/weapon in play on each team. No double SA1216, no double defib, etc. Would be neat to see other classes (lets be honest, light is pretty trash in ranked) become a staple part of the game. I'm all for being able to choose whatever you want in the casual modes, but ranked modes usually have restrictions because of the competitive nature of the mode

Ranks per Class: Having the ability to queue as a certain class, and earn fame points/ranks for just that class alone. In turn, the leaderboard + profiles would have new sections for ranks per class. This would go hand-in-hand with the 1,1,1 class restriction if that ever sees the light of day

Performance Based Fame Point Progression: Because fame points are currently hidden, it's hard to tell if this is the case, but gaining FP in the past was solely based on earning/losing a flat amount based on your current rank + which round you won/lost on. This can easily boost bad players and hinder players who shine each match. It'd be neat to see players with higher combat, support and objective score be rewarded on top of placement. (potentially could take the average scores of the lobby you're in and have the players with higher than average scores earn more points dependent on how much higher above the average they are)

[dusk quarry]

• stop nerfing fall-off ranges
• revert the revolver nerfs
• instead of a random sway on FCAR just add more kick just a knit pick
• give us the ability to look at RP
• make it so iron sights are accurate, we wouldn't have have an issue with external crosshairs if the game had stable sights
• move recon grenade back onto medium
• make stun range closer
• why is it that the last 10 seconds are the only time playing objective matters?
• add QOL changes to throwing knives, and dagger you've been neglecting these weapons since launch let us hold right click and remove innacuracy for midair throwing on the knives

[flint patio]

Can't help but think Power Shift would be more fun without APS and Snipers. They're not exactly game-breaking, but they provide a disproportionate amount of coverage for what they are - and it really disrupts the flow of the match. Everything just becomes about dealing with those two things, and it really narrows your options for builds and strategy.

[winter flicker]

I agree

[regal ivy]

I think invis is too overpowered so I think they should add that if you are invisible you can see other invisible players

[compact pivot]

they seriously need to make it so that they don't force you to buy a whole fucking bundle just to get one cosmetic in the set that you think is good. Like let us just purchase pieces of a set individually. It just comes off as super greedy imo, like I get they need to make a profit but still.

[indigo pasture]

Trying to think ahead for ranked, but I would like to be able to choose from previous ranked rewards or from the current season.

For instance, the open beta ranked reward was a diamond AKM, season 1 had a diamond V9S, and season 2 has the diamond FCAR. Once the season would end, I would have the choice to pick between all the season rewards, so that way you can still acquire the desired skin if you happened to miss out.

[quick coyote]

gotta remember that light gets bursted real fast, also invis got audio cue and is slightly visible , if you really want to counter it then you can use the thermal vision gadget as a light player, basically playing light / anti invis, couple it with smokes and you get to wipe teams by yourself if you play around it

THIS GAME IS SIXK

[modern wedge]

bounce mine:
does no dmg but throws victim

[near snow]

stop enemies from being able to go into your spawn on power shift, spawn camping lights with invis and stun waiting behind where you spawn is a masssive oversight from the developers

[smoky gust]

Audio range is limited
They have more range than where you can hear them at, leaving it basically pointless

If you stand still you are fully invisible, nothing stops them from standing still once you turn around

Light is kind of weak and often needs it to succeed
But that leaves everything else in the dust

Light should be balanced by itself and not be relyant on stuff like this

[ionic tusk]

Skill issue (jk)

[prisma yacht]

honestly right now light is in its best state with nukes removed and explosives in general dealing less damage

[foggy orbit]

Fix Dagger

• Backstabs are very inconsistent from behind, since this is an all or nothing weapon, they need to be more consistent and less random.
• Revert the backstab attack to how it was in either closed beta or open beta, it takes way too long to perform a backstab, and combined with melee lock that often screws you over, it makes backstabbing so inconsistent.

[quick coyote]

the finals is very good game, the gamemodes are fun the animitions, the maps, and almost everything, but it feels like something is missing

[silver forge]

Why? What's wrong with it? What do they need to change? Just saying "Fix weapon/gadget isn't very descriptive...

[wicked heath]

anyone else have lag?

[carmine thistle]

Better Anticheat -> But will come with time

[flint patio]

I'm also 100% in favor of removing Bank It. It's the first mode I tried when I started playing, and it makes for a really bad first impression of the game. The only good thing you can say about it is that it serves as containment for people who don't want to play with their team. If it's going to stay in, it should really be free-for-all like Steal The Spotlight! so people know what they're in for when they queue for it.

[glacial knot]

Forget anti cheat, manual ban or after a certain amount of reports automatic ban otherwise forget it

[chrome lark]

Embark, could you please add a Martin Luther type skin, like a monk from the 14-1500 with a brown cape and the bowlcut but bald in the middle.

[compact pivot]

what do i even say to this

[near snow]

fix healing beam not working, so far it has only happened to me in ranked, how has this not ben resolved yet? this should be a high priority problem

[cursive warren]

Light Weapon Feedback

- SH1900 Inconsistency/Hipfire Reticle:

The weapon’s damage is completely fine but what the main problem with this shotgun is the lack of consistency via combat, the gun tends to not dish out full damage when in close quarters (Which isn’t what should be happening given it’s category), which then leads to some gunfights being lost even when I, (the shotgunner) had a clear positional advantage.

Another issue is that the shotgun(s) (basically all buckshot based shotguns within the game) don’t have a unique and accurate hitbox reticle, usually shotguns within games have a hollow circle reticle to inform the shooter of the spread/hitbox of the shotgun held, having all buckshot based shotguns have the default AR/Sniper/SMG/Pistol reticle is just plain incorrect and confusing for gameplay.

For suggestions, i would highly advise the shotgun spread (On the SH1900) be increased so that it doesn’t feel like im shooting a slightly wider slug round and that the damage radius of the shotgun be buffed a tad bit for more consistent numbers close range.
As for the hipfire reticle (as stated in my previous comment), i would advise the change to the reticle be a hollow circle instead of the current AR hipfire reticle for ALL Buckshot shelled shotguns.

[drifting gorge]

Among us

[amber plaza]

Fix your game so i stop getting kicked for using my azeron. custom keybinds shouldn't be detected as cheats.

[grave sierra]

left feedback how im not keen on swapping which classes use the detection gadgets some while ago, but playing heavy w a motion sensor for a while... if the motion sensor is to stay on heavy, it needs a buff to be worth picking over any other gadget. the motion sensor was fine on light coz light can roam around defenses leaving motion sensors on the way or sit around a vantage point using sensors selfishly to get an alert if youre in danger so you can dip, it's a simple task to do on top of roaming around, it doesnt take much time or like, mental bandwidth.
But a defensive heavy has to keep track of a lot of things during setup, where will barricades be placed, which doors to goo first, where to place mines, when to det explosives, and most of this setup can be done inside a fortification, mines can go outside or inside fortifications, motion sensors kinda shouldnt, unless the enemy team is smoking out everything, theres little reason to use motion sensors inside your lil base, aside from pesky invisible lights oc, so its gotta be placed outdoors, if it's destryoed, you cant replace it without dismantling a barricade, the optimal placement for mines is so different from optimal motion sensors, it adds too much stuff to think about it feels awkward, too many things to juggle IME, i don't know what sort of buff it would benefit from, bigger radius mayb? but as it is now, it doesnt feel as fun to use as it did on light, and maybe its just me, but it feels less useful too.

[sturdy pawn]

Ranked, everyone got stuck in loading screen "Waiting for other contestants to load in". Waited for 15minutes, nothing happened. Alt + F4 -> Instant relaunch -> "You have abandoned ranked"-Cooldown + lost progression in tournament..

Thanks game! 🙃

[slender walrus]

Please remove “win 1 tournament” from circuit challenges. I have no interest in ranked play and will NEVER win a tournament but I would love to complete the challenge list. Shouldn’t be forced into sweaty games.

[upper viper]

PUT the FAME POINTS back PLS

[somber patrol]

This honestly
since my first message 7 hours ago i was playing ranked nonstop and never got past 3rd-4th rounds

It's pain in ass for a casual player. Devs practically asking for smth near impossible

[wooden wolf]

I just ranked up to the very first Bronze placement. I’m joining ranked Tournaments with Golds and Silvers as my enemies, and Unranked Allies which have never picked up a controller before. The skill-based matchmaking, if there is any, does this every time. It’s impossible to rank up.

[quick coyote]

a lot of items in the battlepass are reskins, its sad indeed.

[stark maple]

I'm assuming it's been reported but am I the only one that sees Revives and Revive Tokens being swapped in the scoreboard?

[violet elbow]

quick melee and normal melee hitreg straight up doesnt work half the time with the new update btw

[nimble field]

I just want to reiterate how bad the ks23 feels to use now please devs 🙏 I love this game but the changes on this gun are wild it did not need it

[modern wedge]

bring back vegas
it was never that bad, u guys just are bad
the reason people didnt like it is because of the uneven matchmaking that gave you only one map a day

[lofty crypt]

Shit ranked system

[prisma yacht]

i don't know if it's a problem specifically with dagger, melee weapons, or everything in general, but i find that quick melee is very inconsistent. there are times when i think it should hit and it doesn't and times i think it shouldn't and it does. it kinda feels like using a quick melee after a dagger m1 is pushing the quick melee hitbox farther away from me, so when i'm close to my enemy it hits past them and when it seems i'm too far away it will register

[somber jackal]

3 People lobbies are glitching for me. Anyone else getting this?

[tight verge]

Please buff the knife please please its so bad I dont want it to be meta but I just want it to be decent like the sword. You guys nuked invis which is why knife was so strong and never buffed knife. balance it around dash knife combi instead please! <3

[upper citrus]

revert fcar and lewis recoil nerfs and nerf a meaningful stat (rate of fire)

a fire rate nerf will improve long range, make short range less effective, and keep the same damage per mag, giving the weapons actual weaknesses.

recoil nerfs don’t affect high level play or meta and only make more guns feel bad for casual players

[near snow]

remove the win a round of tournament and give us the 8k xp for free since you guys fucked up

[crude brook]

revives and coins are swapped on the leaderboards lol

[glad locust]

please let us see SR or something so we can see how far we are from rank up

[humble osprey]

Let us use mouse and keyboard on ps5

[frozen elk]

please make the red section of horizon less red, it is so annoying when i get killed by somone i cant even see because of the environment

[gritty dust]

Am I the only one that don't like lack of compatibility between OSPUZE mask and glasses? I though entire circuit would make cool loadout but unfortunately you just can't use both of them at once.
Can you please make them compatible? It don't have to be compatibility with every pair of glasses, but at least this ones

[tender sail]

Low gravity needs to go. Not competitive and not fun. Just slows down the game

[quick coyote]

@dense niche
can you guys pass this to the team? i've seen a lot of people having this issue ever since the new map launched, it makes their eyes "hurt" a bit
i think its due how different monitors handles colors and contrast

[fluid anchor]

the ks-23 has a huge problem of leaving people 1 hp during fights, it meets no combo break points anymore for melees or grenade/rocket/charge against medium. it even hitting a charge + slam + ks-23 shot doesn't kill a heavy. the projectile speed is faster and the accuracy is better so hitting shots may be a little easier, but you're needing to use more ammo to get kills than before so you end up sitting with your pants down reloading more often than before. also the range is so much worse than before in combination with the lower base damage means it feels so unsatisfying to hit people with at medium range. the only point at which the ks-23 deals more damage than it used to is past 44m of range which is completely irrelevant. it feels bad to use in close quarters fights due to constantly leaving enemies at 1 hp. it can put holes in walls easier now, sure, but heavy already has 10 different ways to do that. this shotgun needs to be able to perform better in combat and right now it struggles

[slim bone]

has anyone else been experiencing really bad lag after this patch like my internet is fine but im getting all the icons for no reason at all its making the game unplayable

[lofty crypt]

Shit Matchmaking (Fix it Oscar !!) and nice Anticheat

[pseudo latch]

Day 18 of me begging the devs to give heavy an M134 Minigun as a Specialization.

• 200 Round magazine, ammo is restored two bullets every second, 100 seconds for a full reload.
• 20 rounds per second, eleven damage a round, 220 DPS
• Falloff begins at 30 meters down to six damage a shot at 50, but wide spread means the weapon becomes less effective past 10 meters even against larger targets
• bullets do high damage to structures, allowing a mid-range option to output mass destruction (destroying entire walls on higher floors of buildings, ripping apart nesting sightlines)
• • significant damage to structures and players
• • gun can be pre-spooled with RMB over having an ADS (for obvious reasons, you try to aim down the sights of a water cooler)|
• • high suppressive force through sheer amount of bullets being fired
• • its a goddamn minigun
• - Heavy cannot jump or sprint while holding it, has to switch back to primary
• - lengthy equip-unequip time to balance such
• - gun has to spool up for a second before firing, spool up being LOUD

[green osprey]

No

i want gambling

[glass fjord]

After 5 seasons now, when can we expect the ue5 crashes to stop?

Gambling is most definietly needed in game on the slots on Las Vegas map, your profits would go📈🔥 🙏 💯

[bold flicker]

cheaters every game EVERY GAME EVERY GAME EVERY GAME EVERY GAME EVERY GAME EVERY GAME EVERY GAME EVERY GAME

[smoky gust]

I'm not sure if I like that idea
we don't have secondary weapons for a reason

it might feel a bit bs if they run out of ammo and just pull this thing out and blast you anyways
at the same time, the user may feel limited by not having the usual usefulness of the other specializations

so it could end up being a bit eh for all involved

maybe it would work if you have a little animation before being able to shoot, so it requires planning on the users part
and gives the others nearby a warning

something similar already exist in some games and works decently well there
(plants vs zombies garden warfare for example)
although it has designated hard counters there

so your idea is not out of the question, but perhaps not to that extend (maybe 1-time use up to x bullets, then recharge if any have been fired)

also, maybe not helpful to post that every single day?

[sturdy pawn]

Whuuut, I actually haven't encountered a single cheater in Season2, they for sure did something to fix it! ❤️ love the game now again

[stark maple]

same here

[modern wedge]

game ui has been extremely buggy

[past wasp]

Can challenges going forward be things that can be done incrementally in a round to round basis?

Coming from someone who just completed the "win 1 tournament" challenge, it straight up did not feel good banging my head against a brick wall until I completed it.

Losing all progress and upwards of an hour of my time every time we got eliminated and being at the mercy of randoms as a solo que player. They can even be challenging like "get 12 eliminations in a round" but this just felt like it was forcing people to play a drawn out mode who might not even be interested in ranked

[long plume]

clutches up for last minute cashouts

[hollow mango]

yessss

[cerulean yarrow]

Should add option to view challenges in game

[junior dawn]

PLEASE ADD AN OPTION TO TURN OFF THAT STUPID MUSIC THAT STARTS PLAYING WHEN THE GAME THINKS A TEAM IS ABOUT TO WIN. NOBODY NEEDS IT, ITS NOT HELPFUL, ITS JUST ANNOYING.

[slender walrus]

Fix the POS que system. After 10 min in ranked queue I cancelled and then got hit with a quit game message.

[lofty crypt]

Shit Matchmaking (Thanks Oscar) because he announced it

[snow meteor]

Why are you thanking oscar? What did he do to you?

[crude brook]

what if for matchmaking ranked tournament it wasnt required to find 48 people at the beginning?
its a bracket style game why not find 12 people at a time?
each lobby has a flag for which round of the bracket it is and only the qualifiers of two lobbies with the same flag get put together

[wary hedge]

Add a earthquake event

We need KBNM support on console I can’t compete with these pc players im native to kbnm and i am stuck with controller i cannot match the movement of keyboard with controller but forced to play vs it 😂

[formal bear]

been having a lot of issues with servers lately - loading into lobbies late after game has already started (seems when it started to happen on round 2 it just kept happening for all the next rounds), teammates getting timed out, thrown into servers with high ping for some reason.

[daring fossil]

I love being forced to play gamemodes that are terrible for my weeklies

[river current]

rebuff sa1216（Diffusion and Range）

[wary tapir]

if they could please give me a counter to APS + dome x2 pplus mmesh shield that would be very cool. Currently there is legtimately nothing I can do if the enemy team shields + aps. Aps is comically op and no one talks about it bc its a defensive and not offensive tool. make it so it breaks faster to X grenades stop. Also, why does heavy dome shield get destroyed by aps xd?

[dusk quarry]

shoot it, glitch it, CL40 can break it by shooting the side. counter to domes and meshes, pray to god your light is running glitch.
In other words it's a skill issue if you have a problem with APS's

[onyx sundial]

I think an interesting concept to mew would be 'global cooldowns' for teammates. So sure you can take 2 defibs, but when ur ally uses it... Same with rpg's and the turrets ext.

[radiant agate]

What is happening?

[terse harness]

Can we get a better shop? I wanna spend spend money.

[glad locust]

can mediums please get new gun like an smg or something? I think it would be cool for them to have an MP7 or like a tommy gun (heck even a marksman rifle). I personally feel as if medium is a bland role and is just there (Still a very useful class because of defib and heal beam) and i would love to see another weapon given to them that would kinda give them something special.

[fervent vortex]

Remove low grav, change ranked to 3 rounds, nerf lh1 fcar and sa12 and finally add casual game modes so these devs will invest more than just t-shirts into comp( pls send the damn shirts it’s been a month)

[hybrid flax]

hello! is the new patch cpu intensive? my fps reaches 200+ now, previously I got around 90-120 fps at max settings. the bad thing is my cpu reaches 77 degrees 😦 it was 65-69 previously

Bro i have every battle , and i can share every battle if the devs dont belive me, im platin 1 and every fking battle gold and silver player in my team in platin and diamond lobby. Where the fuck is SBMM or fix the fucking matchmaking

FIX SPAWN ADVANTAGE IN THE FINALS LMFAOOOOOOO

DAY 3️⃣ OF THE SAME VISUAL BUG: revive credits and respawn coins are switched on leaderboard

[abstract marlin]

hey uh any news :)

[upper citrus]

you keep posting this and i can’t tell if you’re serious or not. it’s in a great spot right now and is probably one of the more balanced weapons on heavy. not sure why it would need buffs. it’s very strong.

[pseudo latch]

I mean the intention of a slow equip and spool time means if youre primary runs out theres still about two-three seconds where youre not doing any damage. This is not a "surprise" weapon, this is a hunker down, people know im here weapon that will give opponents plenty warning its up and running.

Yes it would have an animation, a "spool up" period where the gun needs to effectively be charged before it starts firing.

Also, me posting it daily is a far cry from as bad as some people in here. At the end of the day its in good fun. if it becomes a problem, someone will say something to me.

[tender sail]

Please fix the spawns. I'm getting third-partied constantly while another team gets a free cashout. It's literally every cashout.

Server quality is also piss-poor

[lofty gate]

Petition to all Community Managers to create a new #techsperts channel for discussing PC builds

wierd bug, i have another clip where it nearly cost us a final round in ranked, very game breaking and renders this ability useless

[zealous pulsar]

i feel you bro

[shy swan]

YES

[upper saddle]

Whether Mines being disarmed by the Riot Shield was intentional or not- it was an amazing mechanic and interaction adding a much needed layer of utility to the Riot Shield, with this mechanic now missing as me and every other riot shield main has noticed, it needs a buff more now than ever.

[solid narwhal]

Add input based matchmaking and a xim/cheat detection rework so we can have kbm on console
Please and thank you. Just for some extra context: before they removed it, the aim assist did not transfer over to kbm, it was removed because some controller players thought it was unfair to play against people without a skillcap forcefully, even if the console players turned off cross-platform play they still would have been matched up with kbm players(the console kbm players instead of the pc kbm players). So in conclusion we as the people who want kbm back also do not want the aa, the aa never even existed if you were playing on kbm(not on xim) and they should add ibmm so it would be fair for both playstyles.

[slender depot]

after 2 cash out no cash boxes respawn in ranked tournament!
i have video record..

[analog pewter]

just set a frame limit, problem solved

[obsidian solar]

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD:
Here's some suggestions, I know all of these together would make the shield pretty strong but even 1 or 2 would be enough to improve it so much!:

• While blocking movement speed should be the same as walking (increasing block movement speed would help a lot in pushing and giving your teammates support)
• Increase swing speed (Honestly a lot issues would be solve with this, the weapon lacks a good ttk)
• Lunge distance (90% of the fight become a chase you can't win, the other classes have ways to block enemies, slow them down or catch up to them, even heavies have RPG to finish people off if they use sledge)
• Increase damage from 84 to 90 (to kill heavies in 4 hits instead of 5)
• Electrify the baton and give it a glitch effect, when you hit somebody they're glitched for 2,5 sec (This would give the shield so much utility and would help the team greatly, making it a viable options)
• Remove the fov zoom when you hold your shield up (it's very annoying that when you block the screen zooms in, either remove it or add the option to choose between affected or indipendent fov while aiming)

ALLOW MELEE WEAPONS TO KEEP SPRITING WHEN ATTACKING:

• This would help them to compete

IMPROVE MELEE TRACKING:

• Some weapons like the Dagger have an insane lock that is not needed, on the other hand the Riot Shield has a very weak lock, you can't even hit people in your face sometimes. Consider increasing the angle at which the lock works and reduce the lock strenght on the Dagger

FIX THE DAGGER BACKSTAB:

• Backstabs with the Dagger are the most incosistent thing I've ever seen, a lot times either nothing happens or it's not backstab even though you're right behind them and other times it is when you're literally in front of them
• Increase the backstab hitboxes because the latency of the servers causes this problems
• Make it so you can hold the backstab and it's not a forced animation, revert it like it was in the Open Beta

[humble osprey]

Please make keyboard and mouse compatible with ps5!!!!!!

[violet elbow]

game was potentially in one of the best spots for ranked at the end of season 1 and then you rework spawns to the point where its near unplayable and just rng, thats just really unfortunate

[quick coyote]

lmao, post it on #1201841543926005810

[arctic thistle]

does ANYONE think it’s bull that when you die and toss a grenade, that the grenade doesn’t exist? it just stops existing? Also, here’s what happened to me: We team wiped and we were stealing in the final seconds of the cash out, and at the last second of the timer the cash out went off and gave it to the previous team. I think that’s completely annoying, and that if you fail to defend the cash out and somebody is stealing, then the cash out timer should yield to the player and give them that needed time to steal.

[shut bane]

The game its not what we are played before these updates

I don’t know why

[lost ivy]

Getting HDR support would be pretty nice. Game has lots of colors and good lighting

[dusty wave]

This might be me just ranting but.. In the finale round of ranked, if the enemy team decides rush in and gets wiped almost immediately, they should not be able to get a second chance. Or at least spawn them further away! Only second time getting close to completing the stupid challenge after trying almost all day. Came down to a 1v1 last 25 seconds and lost. Now I'm probly not getting that chance again till im off work next week.

[smoky gust]

its a bit late over here and im tired, so i misunderstood that a bit

with the spool up delay my first concern would not be an issue
but im not quit sold, gut feeling

if you want to post it until told to stop then go ahead, i dont mind
im just not sure if its as productive as you may hope

im sure they have noticed

[severe wave]

yh man the spawns are really frustrating like idk why they did that. They do good balancing like my entire team sometimes play heavy now when we before hated heavy because it was too op. Now its balanced but THEY change the spawns for fk sake sometimes you spawn 200 meter away from your own cashout. And its completely rng like you say some teams get lucky spawns some get unlucky spawns its crazy how bad it is

[swift laurel]

the penalty for leaving ranked is good however they need to extend it to casual games as well (as in ban people from queing casual games as well) if the player leaving specifically used the in game menu to leave a ranked game, intentionally griefing like that is going to kill ranked completely

[left plover]

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet before, but I wanted to suggest shrinking the ranked tournament starting lobby size (16 teams) to what the unranked lobby size (8 teams) used to be. It may help with some of the longer queue times that myself and other members of the community seem to be experiencing.

[upper citrus]

bring back unranked tournament and replace ranked tournament with a competitive 3v3.

this will make balancing a million times easier for ranked and lead to less bullshit rng and frustration for the people who are most affected by it (serious competitive players)

this will also bring queue times for competitive down to like 2 seconds

[swift horizon]

I'm starting to think people are accidentally clicking ranked tourney cause before theres another screen after, theres just no way so many people are walking in as default outfit invis light with level 1 sword or shotgun they just unlocked

Rank seriously needs to have a rule that 3 of your weapon needs to be at least level 2 or something

[median verge]

can we get the crosshair lined up with bulllets

[ashen bobcat]

ranked is just so god damn fucked in this season compared to s1. idk what happened but man its just awful in every aspect and the fact that i cant even see my damn fame points puts me off even more.

[quick coyote]

Because part of the circuit is winning a tourney, so there are tons of people that never played one before. Which is also showing us the joke of matchmaking because now you're regularly seeing unranked players in the same lobby as diamond lol

[wide summit]

the taser needs to be nerfed

[fickle cloak]

i was so confused until I read the patch notes 😭

[woven briar]

This!! All this!!

[river current]

i’m serious.buff the diffusion and range won’t make it op like before,now it has completely lost the ability to fight in the midrange and not “that good”in close range,make it more accurate and has a longer range can deal with this problem without decreasing the ttk

[dreamy marlin]

I actually quite disagree with making melee good on a fps game, I think people that want to buff melee are divided in two categories: the ones that want melee good even when they don't use it but they think that every gun should be in the meta or viable for competitive, and the other group are the melee mains that want their weapon to be good, but the thing is that an fps melee is destined to be bad, and is better that stays that way, the mechanics of a fps are build around the fire guns (recoil, damage, cadency, etc) fps formula is balanced around guns and the problem with melee is that doesn't really have that many mechanics, the way it works is quite simple, you click and you hit everything in your line of sight in the radius of your melee, with some luck there are at least two options for this to happen like a strong and fast attack like with the mace, is really cool that they actually include the thrust in the saber but there is really not much else, adding more cool and different mechanics to melee would make them meta and probably it would be impossible to balance them with the fire guns, or adding more features that make sense like different ways to hit and block attacks would just make sense against other melee users, and that's the big issue, you cant make a formula for guns and then expect that the same formula works with melee, you would have to change the game so deeply that it wouldn't be the same game, is like trying to add guns to MORDHAU

[twilit kestrel]

Are they ever adding text chat?

[waxen granite]

Whomp whomp you’re wrong

[upper saddle]

It's not strictly a shooter. Charge and Slam and Throwable Chairs and plant pots, red cans being RPGs said so.

[humble osprey]

Make mouse and keyboard compatible with ps5!!!!!!!!!!

[thorny parcel]

Alright whoever thought making a yeet mechanic for when players are near out of bounds needs to have a stern talking to.
I saved myself from falling off with Goo Gun only to have the game yeet me off after gooing upwards for four goos.

Just revert that and make it the normal out of bounds death timer. The yeet mechanic is horrible and completely nonsensical

[drowsy cargo]

what if it's a team heist game that coincidentally has guns and melee weapons in it

[visual bronze]

remove moveing platforms pls

[slender walrus]

Please change win a tournament to participate in a tournament for the circuit challenge. I’m not a ranked player and don’t want to be.

[formal dove]

Can you configure the EasyAntiCheat so that it doesn't kick you for clicking too fast?
It's a fair, skill-based advantage, so I see no reason why you shouldn't be allowed to click faster.

[slender depot]

great session

[dusty tide]

on gyatt this last update was good 💯 famas def needed a small buff, just want more fcar nerf tho

[upper citrus]

it’s not meant to be good at mid range though. it’s a shotgun that’s supposed to be its weakness. a good close and mid range weapon on heavy is the m60. every weapon is meant to have weaknesses and natural counterplay that’s what keeps them balanced. that’s also why the fcar is stupid because it doesn’t have any relevant weaknesses

@loud saffron yeah and ammo is a terrible angle balance from. it doesn’t affect anything until you reload so it just allows guns to get away with being stupid until you have to press the R button. which keeps weapons frustrating

[obsidian solar]

Give smoke grenade to Medium as well!

[severe wave]

famas is so bad its crazy they have to buff the gun way more

[loud saffron]

Only thing I can think of is the mag size, but even then 20 is forgiving enough in most situations

[dreamy marlin]

so first charge and slam is an ability not a gun, it serves the purpose of complementing a gun or the maze but that's not really good, second the reason why in other games like MORDHAU melee is fun is because there is a ton of complicated mechanics to learn and master, in the finals there are not melee mechanics at all, and the only reason why melee users find fun to melee is because is really hard, if melee were good then they would realize that is really boring to just click with out much aim or thought involved and win, melee users have to find creative ways to make they're play style work and even if it isn't meta its fun, making it powerfull with out the mechanics that make melee fun would not work, you can see that with guns to, make a gun easy to use and really strong same as boring, make a weapon really hard to use powerfull enough to make for the high skill floor same as a loved weapon, not just a meta weapon a loved one, some times even when a hard to use weapon becomes too strong it becomes hated because even when is fun to use is not fun to be played against, and third name a single fps and emphasis in FPS that includes guns and melee in the meta wit out sucking balls like cod with the riot shield (not meta but is awful to fight against and boring to use) or overwatch that even when is a fps is just so extremely different form the finals (bigger teams, melee users with a criminal amounts of health+shields+long range abilitys+ supports that does't have a limit of healing+a lot of ways to close distance that do not really on their teams)

[silver copper]

game is currently unplayable on ps5. every other game is stuck on the loading screen with game sound in the background.

[foggy orbit]

Just make it all class like flashbang

[marsh crypt]

can menu screens be locked to 60 fps for reduced CPU & GPU use/load while not in game? cools the PC a bit in between matches

[jagged cedar]

how fast are you clicking to be flagging the anticheat? You drag clicking or smth? Nothing in the game requires you to click faster than like 7 cps?

[glad locust]

not so much feedback but rather an idea have the commentators reference a newspaper or magazine in the game world called "The Daily Yap" as a shoutout to the server culture and all the yapping going on

[formal dove]

well i discovered that it kicks you through drag, but then i also got kicked for butterfly, and even just double clicking with one finger
(i basically want to double click since i found that if you just time a couple double clicks with the v9s, you can fire at max speed while still having really smooth, stable aim. suggestions?)
(ok i just tested it, and apparently jitter can get you kicked too)

also @analog anchor i guess i can see how double clicking could be considered unfair, since some mice are unable to double click, but at the same time, it even kicked my for jitter, which any mouse can do, and if hardware is considered an unfair advantage, then what about stuff like better screens for seeing invis easier?
i just thought that it could give the game a little added layer of depth, but i get where you're coming from

@jagged cedar it says "System integrity violation: A disallowed tool was detected running in the system"

[near snow]

just remove every player that consistantly gets 0 kills, they are ruining this game for everyone else

[upper citrus]

bring back unranked tournament and replace ranked tournament with a competitive 3v3.

this will make balancing a million times easier for ranked and lead to less bullshit rng and frustration for the people who are most affected by it (serious competitive players)

this will also bring queue times for competitive down to like 2 seconds

also, you could have some cool reward tied to tournaments to incentivize playing them. maybe once a week you could get 50 multibucks by winning a tournament

[pulsar folio]

can we pls just see our fp again

[nocturne sand]

Add an “after action report” so you can still pull up and see game stats from the last game while in the Home Screen lobby

true 1.8 demon. Is it giving a reason when it kicks you? Is your mouse software maybe doing something? I've never really seen someone with an issue like this

[zinc folio]

Please do something about cheaters and ranked matchmaking, seriously

[upper saddle]

You can write all these long format paragraphs but that doesn't change that melee weapons are an aspect of this game already and are what a good chunk of the player base already uses. Melee weapons need love too whether You like it or not.

[sinful valve]

im a melee main, and there is a big diffrence between

i want buffs to make melee a ez win time, to

i want melee to be viable as a playstyle in comp. a lot of people advocating changes @obsidian solar for example, want buffs to make roit viable in comp.

As of now, most competent comp players have no issues with dealing with melee, and that is the issue we are trying to resolve. In loosing distance(by being melee) a advantage of close distance combat should always be in our favor.

Buffing all melee items uniquely would make this fall in line.

The game is also vastly diffrent between COD and MW style, since we have fixed locals, and its not a battle royale, more a obj player. deaths matter in comp, and we should have less of a punishment for running melee in comp

[daring fossil]

removing unranked tournament and then having a weekly contract to win a tournament was extremely bad taste. I've played like 5 or 6 tournaments so far and I've reached the finals once with randoms and every other game I'm getting matched with people who don't seem to understand that you need to work as a team and revive in ranked. I'm never going to get this contract and I only have 1 friend who can tolerate this game.

[coarse thunder]

im probably saying this in the wrong chat, but it would be nice to copy a loadout from one of your already created loadouts to another slot.
hopefully this gets picked up!

I'm sure its been said but 5 v 5 should have just been team deathmatch. This mode is garbage.

[boreal sentinel]

Add a 2nd cashbox type where a team gets to change specialization after successfully capturing it. With this implementation, now there are 2 cashout type to worry about on the arena.

Add a weapon vending machnine where players gets to change weapons choices beyond reserve options.

Add a capturable turret on the arena if successfully captured, the turret will fight alongside for the team.

Add a player/team buff node where if a player or a whole team stands on a static platform on the ground for a short while (microcapture), he/they will receive buff ( max health / armor / shield )

Add a glitch/stun damage for tracking darts after hit. *bring back darts for mediums 🥲

• glitch nade and landmine last 7 seconds not 5 or 10
• glitch mine has larger radius
• let heavy rpg behind a barricade insted of rpging himself
• no getting stuck in goo when its moving around on power shift point
• animation glitch with heavy sledgehammer where it doesnt play swing animation when you instantly turn off mesh shield and swing (at least for the guitar)
• fix ui staying static and unreadable when u are spectating (cant see team scores in cashout gamemode when spectating cuz it stays static when spectating)

@peak nacelle @dense gulch @dusty zodiac @hybrid kraken @hoary badger @serene forum @viral perch @lean bone @gray ore @worthy roost in case you didn't notice any of the other messages in here - requiring people to win an entire ranked tournament to meet one of the challenges is frankly ridiculous, and very not-at-all-fun.

Ranked Tournaments

• Very exhausting for a team to hold a cashout for majority of match to then get it stolen at last second.
• In this scenario, allow teams to earn some cash for X duration of holding a cashout they deposited.
• players already get rewarded for opening a vault and depositing to cashout. So why not for holding cashouts too?

o and also they find funny to use melee cuz is a natural instinct to find funny bonking things, and then "why they added it if they wouldn't make them good" first on a casual setting they're usable and fun or on a competitive setting with a niche strategy they could work (it gives players different and more creative ways of playing) and second because this ISN'T A COMPETITIVE GAME they have said it many times, they want to make a fun game not a competitive one, there is competition? Yes, is the priority of devs? No, so if its meta or no it doesn't matter just that they're fun, and honestly when you don't focus on competitive they're are really funny, using the maze to destroy stuff, the riot shield to play being police applying their right to hit to death anyone they think is maybe probably guilt of something maybe, and combining the sword and dash to thrust people. pd: i forgot to send this like 2 or 3 hours ago lmao

can you force voice chat on in ranked? I don't care if team mates don't talk, but it would be nice when I tell the stupid light on my team not to start the 3rd cashout with 45 seconds left, so we can then be run down by 2 teams and get knocked from first to 3rd like I said we would, he would actually hear it. It would be nice if I just didn't have to be forced to waste 5+ hours of my life solo queuing ranked because of weeklies, that would just solve all my problems.

I was wondering would there be a way to make power shift 6v6 and have the rule of 2? Rule of 2 meaning 2 Lights, 2 Mediums, and 2 Heavies, basically a balanced game where you wouldn't go against 5 medium players with 5 APS turrets and 3 to 5 Guardian turrets, also to accommodate with these changes, and have the powershift platform slightly bigger and make the destination travel length longer and maybe slightly larger maps.

[sonic spoke]

Imagine tea-bagging when you 3v1 after both your team mates got wrecked. my single team mate had 0 kills every round except one. ranked in this game is actually the worst gaming experience I've ever had, and I've been playing FPS games since the 90s.

[lone frost]

Game needs to be a bit more casual in places, I think its fine to have a competitive side but sometimes its hard to just get into the game because of it. I also think you guys should add commendations that we can give to fellow teammates or enemies like what League of Legends has, I dont have mic and text chat isnt a thing so I'd like at least one way to compliment my teammates after a game

I love power shift but the amount of losing games I join in is about every other.. Please fix this!

[tulip dove]

After playing bunny bash for a while and now going back to regular power shift I think guardian and APS turret shouldn’t be allowed in the regular power shift. Seeing +5 on the turrets at all times on the moving platform makes it so annoying and frustrating. In the new event mode I have noticed power shift plays a lot better without turrets when comes to both attacking and defending and there’s a lot of back in fourth between both sides which overall makes it more enjoyable to play

Also, DON’T bring nukes back
The game is much better without them 🙂

[spice stag]

Umm.. so I went into the practice range and someone is killing me with a sniper rifle. Yes. In the practice range? Is there a hidden NPC somewhere?

Win a tournament has me 💀. Guess most players will never make it through this circuit? Why not put this closer to the end for the people who stick it out? Everything else is achievable even if you’re terrible (progress is slow but you can eke it out). This one is just terrible

[daring fossil]

the practice range is a server that's always running with multiple ranges separated by each other and people can get out of bounds with the portal nade, and other ranges dont render for people so you just see the person in it

[fickle lantern]

Make tournament like play 10 games or such there are no games of tournament and it’s boring

[subtle tree]

@tulip dove@spice stag Nukes are part of what brought the hype. This game is better with more chaos, and they are slowing reducing some of it.

I still think this game has the most potential of any shooter in the last 10 years, but if they strive be similar instead of unique, there will be no more reason to play. Clearly they know that, but they've bent in multiple areas and it has in some ways lead to less fun. Defibs are another area where I don't understand why they made the changes they did. Should've left them the way they started, .5sec invulnerability, instant revive. Yeah you get merc'd a lot as you tried to run off, but that's because people defib like it's battlefield and they're on a mission to restart as many hearts as possible. Just playing the game wrong. Only fix defibs needed was a clear way to determine where you'd be facing on spawn.

[mystic adder]

please Please PLEASE Reroll “win one round of tournament” it is IMPOSSIBLE to win one with 2 trios ganging up on us while no one is contesting the other cashout

[tulip dove]

I think the main issue with nukes was how broken it was. The ability to wipe and entire time with ONE nuke is truly absurd and there's not much you can do on the receiving end to defend yourself from it. I think the changes with defib are were necessary as it now punishes players from reviving in the open and requires more thought into it which I think was a good change

[cinder folio]

Absolute masterclass of a comment and I fully and 100% back this comment. Nukes were unique to the game and it needs to be brought back.

When I was attaching C4 to objects, all I put is just one C4 to any of the barrels or any other prop such as chairs or flower pots.

I believed placing 2 C4s on an object is just overkill and not fair to other players so I was responsible to just place one C4 just like how it showed on the trailers. I wanted to use this unique feature in the game while making sure I'm not abusing the 2 C4s stack on the red one, for example!

[jagged cedar]

nukes are part of what killed the hype. Me along with every other player absolutely adored the meta where if you dared queue a game your team would get one tapped off rip. A good majority of people who I know quit the game for a time did it partially because of the shitty heavy stacking nuke meta that plagued every gamemode since ob.

There were like a dozen players who actually enjoyed that steamy pile of shit and most of them were abusing it

[tawny oak]

when people use melee weapons, like sword or sledgehammer, maybe have the items REGISTER DAMAGE when they actually HIT PLAYERS instead of just taking damage from 5 meters away from them and not even in their melee range. Embark you guys got some shitty ass servers

[toxic shadow]

hmph i think easy as fuck teamwide onetaps in a high ttk game are actually very interesting and fun, people who want that shit back unironically wanna abuse crutches because they wanna feel like theyre playing a pve game

[signal basin]

I agree for the shitty serv. The netcode/tickrate looks horrible even if it's actually 120hz... Looks like BF4 at the launch...

Oh and still read my name. Destruction is not damage explosion. Please nerf it on a FPS game. If you don't have to aim to make a kill it's like cheating for me.

[subtle tree]

@tulip dove @toxic shadow@jagged cedarNukes weren't broken, that's the thing. This game has(had) high-yield throwable high explosives. That means if you know there is a player carrying said explosive, you ought to split up a bit. If you're tight enough to get wiped, you deserve it.

As far as defending against it, not difficult at all. C4 and Breach Charge cannot pass through any shields - make use of the Heavy on your team. Don't have a Heavy? Ask your Medium to carry mines. Don't have mines? Stay above and away from windows and edges, unless you're peaking. Light's can take the dash or the grapple hook - a note about evasion; Never go directly towards or away from someone carrying a nuke, always strafe.

Lights can also take a breach charge and counter nuke. Offensively search for the nuking heavy, and set the darn thing off in his hands. Use a green canister, leaves a nice cloud for any teammate coming to revive.

Another tactic for Medium would be to use the grenade launcher, often enough you can set off charges and mines with a single grenade, bad day for a Heavy or Light with a nuke.

Really all I'm hearing from you is "I don't like this situation, please remove it" rather than "I don't like this situation, how can I approach it differently?"

@cinder folio I appreciate the support on this, nukes were incredibly fun. Glad to know there are at least a few other people out there who miss them, I've seen a couple more "Bring back the nuke" comments.

It is a fair suggestion to limit the number of attachments to a carriable, I personally don't really like it - Heavies are slow as can be, I'm fine with them having huge burst - I enjoyed playing around it. But if you really think that's the way it ought to be, good on you for having a personal rule.

When I aim and press shift (because I planned to run after shooting), I stop aiming and this often prevents me from killing the enemy. please make the right mouse button a priority over the shift button. in other words, make it so that aiming cannot be interrupted by running

Lol this is either delusion or just you being plastic 5. Anyone with an hour in the game and a single braincell could figure out that teamwide onetaps on a single gadget use are broken. You even show how everyone would have to change their primaries and gadgets to have a chance at minimizing the effect they have (thats bad game design if you werent able to tell)

[daring fossil]

holy shit I finally did it, and it only took literally 11 hours. Winning a tournament should NEVER be a contract.

[hushed cosmos]

bring back casual ranked

[tulip dove]

At one point of the game, yes, nukes were broken. Having the ability to one shot any class from medium range just isn't something I think should be in the game. Simply trying to dodge or not group up just isn't a options in most scenarios just with how the game flows/plays. The most important thing I think you're missing out is how it affect the causal audience. Sure as someone who likes to play ranked and thought of ways to counter it, (which you did mention a few good ways) I'm willing to change my playstyle to have a less frustrating time with nukes.

But the average person thats playing the game for fun and just wants to have a good time is not going to change their entire playstyle and weapons just to deal with nukes getting thrown at them left and right. Nukes in the game really forced people to play a certain way: either counter nuked or abuse nukes, and this imo really did take away from the unique/creative aspect of the game. Ofc the game still has a 'meta' but I think embark have been making the right decision with the buffs and nerfs to make each class, weapon, and gadget viable

[jagged cedar]

there is no hope for the finals playerbase

also fix melees please

[tawny oak]

it tells you premium only or non premium. Anything that says Premium means you have to buy the BP to get

[slender crypt]

cool

[modern moth]

Just wondering if anyone else is having issue with trying to play tournament? There is a Contract which says win a tourn but we cant get a game even after 15mins of waiting on multiple attempts, Anyone else experiencing this?

[turbid falcon]

Ive been (and currently still) waiting in a queue for 30mins in Oceania, almost no chance of getting into a game seemingly. And even if I do, its a 45min committment to the slight possibility of getting a win.
This challenge is bullshit

[sage prism]

hey game maybe stop putting me against diamond players when I'm gold 1, thanks

[daring fossil]

it took me like 11 consecutive hours of solo queuing (I have no life) to finally get team mates capable of helping me win a tourney and I found games in 1-3 minutes every time in NA so good luck honestly. You don't need to finish all the contracts to complete the circuit im pretty sure, but I can't leave a contract unfinished. Edit: oh, I guess you do need all 28 for the final reward.

[subtle tree]

Agreed, early on when they had no physics change while equipped with charges or mines, they were broken. They fixed that. Players then just continued to whine and cry about how broken they were (which they weren't), and they took out something that made this game unique. Think back to the old days of Battlefield, 4 guys all getting in a Humvee that they've equipped with 8 C4, all riding straight into the thick of it just to bail at the last moment and watch the fireworks. Was that broken? Or was it simply just more fun?

The reality is that most of the casual players (the 250,000 at launch) were never going to stick around anyway, this was just the new thing to try for a few weeks until they moved on to the next launch. It takes time to build a community, and to truly shine the product. You don't stick around for a game like this because it checks all your specific boxes for a casual shooter. You either stick around because it's dramatically different from other offerings, or you come back because you see the wild engagements and decide you want to be a part of that.

I'm not saying the game is not fun anymore because of one thing they removed, they've added many things this season that feel truly fresh, but it feels a little bittersweet without one of the primary things that got me and many others hooked.

@toxic shadow@jagged cedar It's okay if you guys just want to troll, but I wont consider you participants in the conversation going forward.

[real moon]

you can't really compare it to battlefield since c4 atv doesn't happen to you multiple times a game almost every game, especially when battlefield is a game where your individual instant death doesn't cost you the entire match, where the ability to instantly kill someone doesn't win an entire fight or entire game

[jagged cedar]

The only trolling here is having even the slightest implication that nukes were ever good game design

[woven hawk]

Please let us jump over mines

[quick coyote]

Ok say now we know a heavy has a nuke and has his team with him. The other team splits, now the heavy has the upper hand because his team is still in one piece. Or should the other team split, in a team based game where teamwork is crucial? No offense to you but "Bring back nuke" takes are pure trash. Stop complaining because you can't wipe entire teams with no effort whatsoever and call it a day. Simply get good at the game.

[quartz cedar]

Glitch Trap
Reduced the duration of glitch effect from 10s to 5s

Glitch Grenade
Reduce the duration of glitch effect from 10s to 5s

---

Change these to 7.5 seconds or to 8 seconds. 5 seconds is not enough.

[subtle tree]

@real moonThat's a fair take, but it wasn't meant to be a 1:1 comparison. The simple point is that unique features are what make games worth playing. There may be arguments for further balance, perhaps a set number of charges per life, or per game. Perhaps temporary personal shielding of some sort. Regardless, simply removing features is almost never the right answer.

@jagged cedar@quick coyote How many hours do you guys have?

[raven maple]

5 seconds of not being able use mobility and gadgets is more than enough, if you need more time than that you should be tracking better.

[jagged cedar]

Unique features are what make a game worth playing. Bullshit one taps are not a unique feature. The finals has other interesting unique features that don't actively impede on the fun for 98% of the player base.

I have around 400 hours and I've been d1 in ob and s1 (not that diamond has meant anything for these seasons but it shows that I have experience in the obnoxious metas)

[still tulip]

If ranked matchmaking makes gold play diamonds pls give more points to progression if the lower ranked team makes it past the first or second round or something

[pale crane]

more HP for light plz

[sinful fog]

Suggestion:
Give the ability to turn off the matchmaking with already started matches
BUT add an XP bonus for joining an already started games and playing till the end

Most of games where you join already started match are more frustrating than waiting another half a minute to join a fresh one. Also, most of those game you get are already lost or have a newbie with sniper rifle on a crane, and most of other people who will join the same match will leave, so you are stuck with 2-player team where only you is doing something for the rest of the game for nothing but more frustration.

[clever hawk]

Features that have been primary causes of the loss in playerbase and whether or not they’ve been fixed:

• Nukes : Fixed after months ✅
• Recon (wallhacks) : ✅
• Lights useless in Ranked : ❌
• Stun gun/invis pubstomping casuals : ❌
• Terrible Ranked matchmaking : ❌
• Cheater epidemic : ❌
• Awful spawn system : ❌

Embark have done a great job with an unprecedented frequency of consistent updates that all improve the game, but these major issues still haemorrhage the playerbase.

The latter 3 going unfixed is highly concerning. Matchmaking & cheating are fundamental to any game, and spawns are crucial in this game.

A third of your playable classes - especially it being one of the most popular ones - being near-unplayable in Ranked is devastating for the competitive/streaming scene.

Newcomers and casuals getting stomped by that very same class via highly frustrating abilities such as stun gun is the worst of both worlds.

Lights have multiple great Weapons, Specializations, and Gadgets. The class itself is great. It’s the excessive damage shit out by the wider game that neuters them. It doesn’t matter how good your abilities are when you can’t survive more than a single glance.

[tulip dove]

Light is not useless, there's just a big skill gap to learning how to play the class (compared to medium and heavy) especially with its low HP and majority of people aren't that good at the class, myself included 🙃, but its one of the most fun class to play

[astral topaz]

Pls, return nukes, now with 1 C4 its not imbalance

[jagged cedar]

Devs don't listen to this guy

[molten palm]

My dear devs, I've played 1000+ matches yet never been able to join a ranked match in my region. Have you guys officially given up ranked matchmaking on consoles? Or is crossplay just a joke?

[stark trench]

it definitely has a steeper learning curve, easy to learn but hard to master

[toxic pawn]

Feedback on the Sys Horizon map, the room filled with red light needs to have the lighting changed, it bleeds too easily with enemy outlines and crosshairs, it makes it very hard to fight within that area

[subtle tree]

@jagged cedarDidn't ruin the fun for 98% of the player base. 90% player drop in the first month, 10% stuck around. Simply to be expected. That 90% that left was a huge portion of the whiners, and they were going to leave anyway. One of the worst mistakes a developer can make is cater to a player who will never stick around in the first place. Build the experience you set out to build. It also isn't a bullshit one tap, and if it is, what about the RPG, or the Sniper? The RPG got balanced, the sniper is still the most infuriating weapon in the game. Why did nukes get the hammer?

Honestly surprised you're on the no nuke train with 400 hours and obviously plenty of tournament wins, you clearly don't have any trouble.

310 hours by Steam timer, 209 hours by in game timer. Platinum S1 (agreed, means essentially nothing for S1).

[little furnace]

bro it is impossible to get a ranked tourney in australia

[plush shell]

buff all weapons, i can't find ranked Eu

[shy swan]

• play again as a team button
• smokes disable all fire damage
• see friends list characters cosmetics in list
• glitch nade and landmine last 7 seconds not 5 or 10
• glitch mine has larger radius
• let heavy rpg behind a barricade insted of rpging himself
• no getting stuck in goo when its moving around on power shift point
• animation glitch with heavy sledgehammer where it doesnt play swing animation when you instantly turn off mesh shield and swing (at least for the guitar)
• fix ui staying static and unreadable when u are spectating (cant see team scores in cashout gamemode when spectating cuz it stays static when spectating)
• make it so in power shift the opposet team can clutch by stoping the point when they are on the point. (my team has been on point and the opposet team wins just cus one person is on it it seemed)

[violet elbow]

revert the recoil/range nerfs on the fcar, AKM, Lewis and revolver, actually nerf the lewis and fcar to the point where they KILL SLOWER than their SHORT RANGE VERSIONS of the AKM/M60, this balance vision WORKS ON LIGHT, but it wasnt even tried with the medium/heavy guns to simply force one of them into being weaker up close but more viable at range, lewis and fcar just got made to do everything better except for mag size and somehow that was supposed to be balanced?

[hidden locust]

It would be nice to get a bonus if teammates leave in ranked
Whether its more VRS/XP or a boost in ranked if you and the other person do well regardless of circumstance
Even if thts a bad idea i don't think it should penalize you if a person disconnects ik the devs are working on adding it to were you can see if you're going up or down but more visual feedback would be nice like "this game will not count towards rank" but still make tht game feel worth it and not wasted time

[clever hawk]

Light is almost extinct at high level Ranked because it dies so quickly it’s useless.

By itself it’s a great class, which is why it can dominate quickplay lobbies, especially with unfun abilities such as stun gun/invis.

But against coordinated and skilled teams it simply cannot survive long enough to be useful. The amount of damage in the game needs to be toned down big time

[lavish hatch]

Hey guys please don't pay for a game if that game could not even ban 100% headshot hackers.

Just met a hacker I saw yesterday.

[quick coyote]

light has no purpose:

• light is not good at 1v1s, light is supposed to have good movement which equates to the ability to dodge bullets with enough skill in 1v1's. light cant do that.
• light is not good in clutch situations
• while light has recon abilities, its not like light can go kill them, nor can light move their teammates across distances (barely can now in S2 bc of the gateway).
• light's cloak is very visible (understandable for balancing reasons, but doesn't help light in addition to all of the above)
• light's dash is quite useless (only good on sword, which is light's best weapon by far), the dash increases spread, adds some sway as well, meaning you can't really land shots during the dash. You can shoot after the dash, but your opponent has likely already snapped back onto you.
• light has no winning matchups (not even against their own taser, as light has the worst hipfire spread guns out of all the classes)
• for the people saying light has the highest dps in the game, true, but considering light's health pool and ttk, you will basically lose head on if the M/H is as skilled or even slightly less skilled than you.
• light doesn't fill it's archetype at all: it is supposed to use superior movement/positioning to overcome the drawback that is it's low health pool. light can cheese kills with cloak, but other than that, light is a sitting duck in the midst of a fight once goosed out of invis.

i have no idea what light is supposed to do other than occasionally pick off players, which medium and heavy can already do. btw these arguments mostly do not apply to sword light, sword light adds the cannon and the movement to somewhat counteract the glass (at the cost of some skill tho)

[sinful fog]

Remove FCAR from game, just remove it. Stop nerfing it - 3 Mediums will still stomp the meta while this gun is in the game. Just remove it, nerfs doesnt matter.

[rough herald]

Appositely agree, its become an iconic part to the finals and nerfing it that much kindda bum me, i don't really like nukes but a little part of me kidda wants it back

[warm marsh]

Delete Nukes from the files

[teal minnow]

they can't just remove it from the game bc there are people who paid for skins. They should make the TTK of the FCAR 1,7-1,9 sec to match the other weapons (TTK of the FCAR is 1,3 rn)

[quartz cedar]

I was playing heavy in ranked during the nuke meta. It wasn't even fun to play as the heavy doing the nukes. It just felt unfair, wiping 3 man teams with 2 buttons. It's the worst part of the game by far, and should never come back.

[eager willow]

i was rank #350 then after that every game I won I would only move 10 spots on the leaderboard and when I lose I lose like 50 to 100 no matter what round it is. it’s like the MMR thinks I should be lower rank I guess. Anyone heard of this happening? My win rate is 70% and 2kd and I’m stuck in d3 unless I win every single game back to back to back for like 20 games. This makes 0 sense

[blazing escarp]

Stuck in "We are waiting for other contestants to connect"

[glacial sierra]

maybe a little bit but not really buddy - if you don't have friends to play with, you're stuck playing with whoever you get matched with at the time, who may or may not be terrible.

I've won a few (ranked) tournaments, but not many and I certainly can't be bothered continually playing tournament hoping I get a decent team and we get a bit lucky, when there is a much higher chance that isn't going to happen.

I would suggest that most players don't play ranked (given that it's impossible to get a ranked match in most regions), so requiring a ranked win for something the entire playerbase is supposed to be involved in, is stupid.

[slim sun]

same

[lapis pollen]

Again, dagger, riot shield, sledge, kinves.

Nervermind, I should find it earlier that you devs just dislike these weapon so much that you ignored them for four mounths

[fervent onyx]

have you actually used it since the nerf? its awful now, low damage at range and high recoil

[raven timber]

Hey, what about you make a explosive ammo rifle for ligth, they need a rifle and its a good poption or give the rifle top medium, could also come in handi

[dry raft]

True but now lights can be great in ranked. Problem is ego player who sucks hard and still playing lights.
Cheat is the most important in platinum/diamond

[deft moth]

people asking for low skill nukes back are wild

[teal minnow]

lights are good in ranked but there are people who some someone play light like a god probably in unranked and they think that they can be good as them at the first time

[scarlet agate]

Whenever a new update comes out it comes with a new bug/glitch now whenever i am opening the game it shows unlimited cash and everything and whenever i start a match the game always crashes when the team is deployed on the map and i cant even see anyone they all are just invisible including me.

[worthy swan]

@fickle linden @feral osprey Hi CMs, could we have an official statement on wether the skins affect the hitboxes ? I'm thinking TV Head and oversized sweater mostly.

[silver forge]

Cheaters are everywhere. It’s gotten worse from last season. This is ridiculous

[pale crane]

after somone steel the cashout, and the banking timer is close to end, the game should give an extra time for secure the cashout, like 10sec more

[sharp maple]

Whatever you're smoking, share.

The Lewis gun as an example has a ttk of 1.4 seconds. Just because a weapon is picked a lot does not mean it needs to be nerfed or removed. If anything, lower the horizontal recoil for the akm slightly, and give the fcar a few more rounds in the magazine to bring both more in line with the firepower that the heavy can dish out (which is ridiculous).

The issue with the akm is yes it has a higher rof and more rounds, it's high horizontal recoil results in it not being very good at its job. Buff that and you'll see less fcar.

[swift skiff]

fix matchmaking

[clever hawk]

Nukes doing damage can’t ever return to the game. Their power, ease of use, and lack of opportunity cost means they will always be oppressive & unfun.

At the same time I do appreciate the novelty of a mechanic like that existing. Attaching a detonator to a throwable canister and then detonating it in someone’s face. The devs were clearly proud of it hence its prevalence in marketing and their reluctance to nerf.

So I think nukes can and should exist in the game, they just shouldn’t do damage.

Give them major knockback for example and they’d retain a comical & fun factor whilst also being useful. You could displace tightly grouped teams, knock someone on a bridge off the map, or just cause general chaos.

You could make them the most destructive item in the game, like firing 5 RPGs at a building at once.

Changes like this would make them fun, give them a valuable purpose, and totally stay away from the easy, cheap, unfun, and powerful tools they used to be.

[teal minnow]

Mate I said they don't have to remove it ,and also I never mentioned the Lewis Gun. You're just an average FCAR user complaining about every weapons TTK but the FCAR. But I agree about the Lewis Gun it should be 1.45-1.5 imo

[glad lance]

I really don't like the delay between the moment a team gets wiped and the moment the wipe sound effect plays. In my opinion, the sound effect should happen instantly like in other games with similar mechanics (Apex, Valorant, League of Legends...) so you instantly know the fight is over and can focus on something else.

Currently the delay is 3 seconds and I cannot see a reason to justify it.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1009830597067292743/1223223478828662866/delay.mp4?ex=661912a3&is=66069da3&hm=b445a3937be4b2984926ffaa008a1a069a536480c1e6ea59196d96ebd43c6ce0&

[supple abyss]

Ranked Matchmaking system sucks.

[west marsh]

tbh any of these nerfs and buffs doesnt matter all i want is to play this game without cheaters, its ridiculous how they exist in each round. EAC sucks.

[charred shell]

Cheating is kinda rough, matchmaking in ranked could use a bit more tuning but its okay. I dont know if this is a point to make but heavy meta is pain in ranked is rough especially for solo Q

[fickle linden]

Already promised

[tribal spindle]

It’s either that or the experimence of solo queuing as a gold 4 and immediate being guaranteed tossed into a lobby of full three diamond fcar teams

[white lily]

Diamonds arent diamonds for no reason. They dont solo queue.

[solid sinew]

you're plat so you're gonna get diamond/plat against

[foggy orbit]

If you actually read what he said he wasn't complaining about diamond enemies, he was complaining his teammates are gold. And not plat/diamond.

[warm marsh]

Hahahahhaha

[obsidian solar]

Give smoke grenade to all classes! It would open so many possibilities! I would use smoke so much if it was on medium, on the other hand i've barely seen any Light using smoke, especially when they have better gadgets to choose from

[night hinge]

I've already got 300+ hours in the game and now for the first time there is a chinese hacker and his friend who is getting boosted in my team. Im playing ranked (solo Q) and im plat1. What would you do in such a situation?

[violet elbow]

spawns make ranked unplayable, ranked just feels 1 step forward 10 steps back this season sadly

[clever hawk]

Tournament rules in casual Cashout (especially when it’s the first quickplay mode) are unbearable.

Decisions like this baffle me. New players will flock to this mode more than any other.

Dying once and having a 30 second respawn timer is guaranteed to turn people away from the game. Having another 20+ seconds added if your teammates die is so bad it’s suicidal for the game.

SBMM doesn’t seem to exist. A player’s first ever match will be against others with hundreds of hours. That’s terrible enough without giving them 30-60 second respawn timers on every death.

Constant leavers too, no doubt people unwilling to sit through a 60 second punishment because they dared to die a single time. This game also has shit backfill lmfao, so you’re left with 2 players for minutes, further increasing the chance of team wipes and horrible respawn times.

Remove revive tokens/extreme respawn times on Cashout, make it like the Cowboy event.

[sharp maple]

I'm not complaining about other weapons ttk being too low. I'm saying that instead of nerfing fcar, bring the akm recoil to be more controllable and you'll see more balance. My issue with the heavy weapons isn't one weapon in isolation, it's the fast ttk of the weapons in conjunction with the gadgets and health pool that make it too easy to cheese fights.

[midnight cave]

some variety in the loadouts in bunny bash would've been nice, each match feels almost exactly the same. if the loadouts for each class were randomized or picked from a pool of preset loadouts each game i feel like people would enjoy it more. only 1 map in rotation for that gamemode also makes it get stale quickly as well

[ruby spade]

Would love to have an option for private match with less than 6 people,perhaps sometimes we just want to goof around and test our mettle with each other,i think it would be a nice addition hopefully this will be considered

[thin fulcrum]

Rework the level 7 skin. As it stands, it looks like a basic 100 multibucks skin and looks terrible. Take inspiration from the level 6 skin which is great.

[slow shale]

Please add penalty to leavers. I play 4 time bank it and people always leave when they died 2 times.
