What was the rational behind the Throwing Knives buffs ? As if it wasn't frustrating enough to deal with cheaters in the game, now they can consistently 100% a heavy in like 2 sec and the rest is like instant death. I mean faster than it already was.

[thick sorrel]

@slow abyss

Thanks for your responses. Let's hope the DEVs will come to the same conclusion.

Looking forward for Season 3.

[vocal yacht]

Play againt Throwing Knife is NOT fun, remove the buff, There is NO buff needed.

[wanton echo]

butterfly clicking while in spectator mode kicks u out the game

[night zephyr]

3 matches in a row where everyone on the map was just running around destroying buildings for the quest. Are they ever going to do something about that or are we all just playing quest simulator now and not actually playing the game anymore? Like how brain dead do you have to be to make quests like that.

[urban marsh]

I think is a bug, same for me can t track any of them

[keen skiff]

💯

[viral cipher]

everyone talking about throwing knives buff can stfu. First time lights get a somewhat decent weapon and you lot start complaining because you cant get a free kill against them.

[naive viper]

i think Throwing knives is fine now

@drifting iris

[pseudo breach]

Even though I'm not a fan of the light class, I agree. They also need to fix the stun gun as well. Just having ADS without gadgets/specialisation is fine

[winged iris]

Am I the only one who can’t pin the circuit quest

[static geyser]

Now the throwing knives ALSO one-shot you if you're Light...
Embark people don't know how to balance anything. It seems like they bought the game from another company because the game is good and fun, but the EXTREME IMBALANCE in it makes no sense... Especially if you play as Light because, LITERALLY, ALMOST ANYTHING can one-shot you; it's ridiculous... And if it doesn't kill you outright, it leaves you in such bad shape that you can only run and hide.

Both Medium and Heavy have more health and more DPS than Light, so what's the point of playing Light? None... That's why almost no one plays it, and even less in Ranked. It's only played when something is mega OP, like now when there are a lot of Lights with throwing knives, and even then they can only kill other Lights because it's such a mediocre weapon that against Medium or Heavy you're dead anyway...

Last week they changed the taser too... Now I tase a Heavy and he charges at me, uses an RPG or a shield, and I can't do anything against him... CONGRATULATIONS, EMBARK! Another great job of balancing XD

Whoever is in charge of Embark really has no idea what they're doing because all their decisions are so, so, SO horrible...
Last week you could revive while looking around. I thought: "Finally a GOOD change. Finally something really good that everyone was asking for (I wish you could also look around freely while robbing a bank)"; to my surprise, they removed it this week because apparently... it was a "bug" XD XD XD XD XD XD
The only damn thing they've done right in 6 months... AND IT WAS A BUG!! hahahahahahaha I really can't believe the incompetence of these people...

[verbal crane]

Lights are the worst and so annoying to deal with

[drifting iris]

I can't track the circuit contracts, how can I fix this?

[half sapphire]

Hey has anyone lost their cns hoodie? I unlocked it but then it dissapeared from my inventory. Is there a way to get it back?

I've been redbearded chat. Please go watch my obituary https://youtu.be/PmUu4pfQ-5E?si=-h3Ack-P0ceyePC0

[spring estuary]

Please fix randoms who leave the game and also the others who are inactive. I was playing alone the whole game in 1v3...

[ocean shore]

bruh the throwing knives one shot lights before the buff if you get two headshots on them. you just never knew it cause they weren't popular

[graceful sequoia]

YES PLEASE, I had 2 of them rage quiting in first round, and I'm still loosing ELO

[hollow valve]

Still think the throwing knives buff is overdone. I can see that throwing knives was designed as a marksman with the fire rate between sniper and LH1. You can 4 shot a medium and 3 shot a light, this is what it is supposed to be. But did you forget its no ads strafe speed and accuracy? And with this firerate it's just spamming. Or perhaps devs just want to buff the weapons for fun to make an "op" weapon once in a while...... (Bruh it's just lazy......)

[twin heart]

One small titbit here... Heavys' LMGs don't kill the fastest out of all classes, Lights' weapons are still faster if we're talking about weapons' DPS.

[quick coyote]

Remove snipers from powershift it sucks any fun out of the gamemode that was possible

[lavish shard]

[quick coyote]

fast steal naw

Improve the spawns on ranked.
Got 30 seconds left in a match after team kill and you spawn 200m away from the obj

[runic surge]

Unpopular opinion, ranked shouldnt be a tournament, and third parties don't make you skillfull, its just abusing the system, like everyone else

[fading trail]

Great work on the APS nerf, I run APS on every med build I have and even I thought it was overpowered, I thought the nerf was too strong from the patch notes but after playing some quick cash and power shift matches I actually think it's well balanced.

[glacial knot]

Nerf the fucking turret wtf heavy goes down so fast. Nice 3 medium on cashout in a roon 3 turret no even a chance to enter the room . Its like 3 vs 6 wtf do you call that balance ? @north dew the devs have nerfed ther braincells also 😂

[willow kindle]

just dont get hit by it

[dusk forge]

MAsters Circuit, Pro circuit....always the same tasks, so many so dumb, so boring, incredible you dont have any better ideas than 4 times the same quest in one circuit...embarassing. but we get used to it, seems like this is your style

[north dew]

Haven't played in a while, but nerfing everything is just .... unfun

[cloud jungle]

The latest patch introduced a nasty bug on controller that removes the option to map a button to just 'Equip Weapon' instead of 'Interact and Equip Weapon' when using 'Directional Equipping'.
That's a real controller nerf in ranked especially since it will mean accidentally interacting with stuff when meaning to equip your weapon - which can and will be the difference between life and death sometimes, so please please please revert this.
And while you're at it: please reinstate using 'Equip Weapon' as a reload cancel as it used to be in Season 1, since reload cancelling using a gadget/specialization can be very inconsistent because the gadget/specialization can be on cooldown.

You're forced to look around to properly equip your weapon now. This is insanely clunky and I'm unable to play until this is fixed.

THESE SHOULD BE SEPERATE BINDINGS ON CONTROLLER. THERE ARE ENOUGH BUTTONS WITH AUTOSPRINT

[river plover]

which is why they are buffing stuff like throwing knives 👍

[sharp jasper]

embark keeps the game spicy with nerfs and buffs, your favourite character will not be balanced, wait your turn

[thick sorrel]

faster steal would be an interesting buff to make Light viable in ranked. Just or 1-2s.

@twin heart DPS alone isn't meaningful. You need to compare TTK over all classes and it's huge. Heavy kills Light twice as fast!

[gusty wagon]

pls fix health bar thru walls bug. it's tiring dying to these wallhacks

[stable mauve]

it would be nice to be able to check the stats of the last few matches played

[graceful sequoia]

I thought I was playing against cheaters with walls, but no, is the new "feature" for tracking the healthbar for 10 years when you take damage.

[oblique kite]

Please add kbm console support! And thats actually a very good feedback!!!

[lunar dew]

Im not sure if it's happening to anyone else but on PS5 my tracked challenges are stuck at 0. Can't add any of my challenges to the tracker

[stray rampart]

Facing extreme amount of lag, please look into this

[tepid tapir]

the quickplay character model shows them holding a bow staff but there is no bow staff in the game...

[vernal swallow]

tbh as a heavy main I would say the opposite change on charge and slam, less distance, in the beginning/start of the charge does more damage and does less than current damage by the end of it, also the slam feature being damage nerfed quite a bit in the beginning would be good but after falling a while both distance and damage would be increased, also I think somthing fun would be after slamming through a floor the damage is reduced by 70% (distance stays the same) and then does a hit on the ground below the floor it broke (second slam can’t break the floor)

There an issue with not being able to track objectives

[dry timber]

Fix your rank system (full diamond 2 and 3 lobby, my team was plat2, plat 1, d4). Lost 3 arrows ❤️ The same amount i lose if i win the first round and lose the second in plat lobby. I keep being amazed by the fact you have the worst ranking system ever. Honestly this is quite impressive. AND IT GETS EVEN BETTER AHAHAH; Just got a game in plat lobby lost frist round, i lost 2 arrows. I swear this is so inconsistant STOP SMOKING CRACK EMBARK

[gray flare]

wow! i think this is the single worst take i've ever seen in this channel, and that's a pretty high bar to clear! you should honestly be proud of yourself

[glad vapor]

Agreed that ranked shouldn't be a tournament, but the rest is loser mentality. It's an established strategy in this game to go for late steals, so I'd suggest getting with the program rather than expecting the devs to make everything fair

[calm lynx]

Same issue here. Some sounds are missing or buggy and I'm playing with ~20-30FPS

[fading trail]

This

[green vigil]

Seconded. Everyone saying it needs buffing are probably just those annoying people that go around farming kills instead of playing for the objective of the mode.

[stray rampart]

And all symbols will appear at the same time and flash red for no reason, but sometimes they don't appear and the performance is still the same

[tight garden]

İn game currency idea: change the name of multi bucks into finals coins.
"multi bucks" reminds of some game that is popular for it's bizarre memes -Fort..

and maybe change the logo of it to finals emblem added to it (we already have that as a weapon charm)
just a little touch what y'all think?

it may even become a crypto currency in itself so that players buy and exchange other properties than the finals cosmetics

[ember maple]

Something has to be done about people ignoring the game entirely to hammer buildings for the destruction challenge. It ruins the game and it's happened 3+ times in my last 10 is power shifts. They literally finish with 0 across the board. It's stupid anyway b/c you would get that done passively if you just play the game and did the other challenges....

[solar ibex]

Just had a ranked game where in the last 2 minutes after 2 cashouts finished no new vaults spawned, and though my team wouldve had a chance to continue the fight and get into the final round, the game killed our chances by bugging out.

[strange osprey]

Yeah the game is literally running on life support it feels like. I sometime get stuck in loading screens, crash consistently, spawn without bodies, and have the occasional no vault spawn. And it worked perfectly fine until the last update for me

[pale adder]

Thx for the perma ban without even giving me a reason embark. Great devs love to see it

[queen cloud]

It's taking longer to die than I expected honestly. I was kinda hoping for it to completly die faster.
Soo devs finally realize balancing has been awful due to listening to much to the community and most people that enjoy fps games don't enjoy this game.~

Ever since s2 I keep seeing trash patch after trash patch. It's like 1 step forward, 10 steps backward.
Movement with 2.5 or 2.6;
Silent Console aimassist buff recently as well;
Light and medium nerfs;
APS hard nerf, Player tags behind walls...

[sharp adder]

Address the peope supposedly getting banned for using steam overlay. It's the only way to make purchases in game and if people are getting banned for that due to EAC then something needs to be done

[brave copper]

Why are people freaking out over the knife buff? It's the first day, most people will go back to guns by tomorrow and probably won't even be playing light. Same thing happened when they buffed dagger.

[grave cairn]

Can you not melee while shielding anymore?

[rigid shale]

[untold hazel]

nerf the sniper

[sudden spire]

buff the sniper

[velvet niche]

can yall fix the recent players list its kinda ass and can u update outfits so older ones can be bought in pieces

[latent meteor]

?

[strong escarp]

Please continue with the trend of buffing weak things. Throwing Knives buff, the hidden melee buff with multi-hitting, and the indirect buff to grenade launchers with the APS nerf, are all great changes 😌.
APS should probably block more than 3 projectiles, though. Feels too limited otherwise.

[tame crag]

I think that charge and slam is too powerful, it can be an instant 130 damage, essentially a second rpg, but you can even hit enemies multiple times with it.

I believe its focus should primarily be on being able to cause destruction, not deal damage. I think its damage should be reduced to 70.

[versed cloud]

Nerf the turret so it has a limited amount of ammo and has to reload like any other gun

[lapis saddle]

WHEN KBM ON CONSOLE <@&1012034066876473384>

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting. Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen.

[cyan pilot]

Lower rpg damage to 75, lower the cooldown, and increase the splash range. Make it an item for destroying the map not the other teams

[warm compass]

stop asking for nerf dummy the game is not fun at all

[willow kindle]

we need more buffs than we do nerfs

peak heavy

[pseudo latch]

@jagged cedar we’re on 75 today if you wanna do it tomorrow for me lmao.

Day 75 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. No headshot modifier to keep DPS from becoming insane.
• 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, you’re probably not getting higher than 150 DPS even as far as 10 meters.
• bullets do high damage to structures (should be breaking walls in 20-50 shots) 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, no “pocket minigun” strats, choosing to use this mid-combat is a commitment, one that could get you killed.
• - gun has to spool up for a second before firing, spool up being LOUD

the MGL was some1 else i think...? fair enough for most of it. Its pretty much tied with heavy for dps tho.

I wonder, how would all the Heavy (and Medium) players feel if the following happened?

If a charged sword strike from a Light did → 466 damage to them (which is what a hammer strike does to a Light, 133% of their total health... ONESHOT!)

If a C4 charge from a Light did → 361 damage to them (which is what a C4 charge from a Heavy does to a Light, 103% of their total health... ONESHOT!)

If a mine from a Medium did → 315 damage to them (which is what a mine does to a Light, 90% of their total health... ALMOST ONESHOT!)

If a grenade from a Light did → 348 damage to them (which is what a grenade does to a Light, 99% of their total health... ALMOST ONESHOT!)

If a Stun Gun from a Light did → 327 damage to them (which is what an RPG from a Heavy does to a Light, 94% of their total health... ALMOST ONESHOT!)

If a SH1900 shotgun blast from a Light did → 233 damage to them (which is what a KS-23 shotgun blast does to a Light, 67% of their total health... And it also has 6 cartridges, not just 2 as Shorty's Light...)

Sounds ridiculous, right? It sounds ridiculous because IT IS ridiculous...
Well, this is the harsh life of a Light in EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEIR MATCHES.

Can you imagine walking around the map with your Heavy and suddenly LITERALLY DISAPPEARING for any of these reasons (and others I haven't mentioned...)?
You would be CRYING day and night, 24/7 here in the official Discord... yet I don't see you asking for justice for Light, to balance it once and for all and make it the DPS it should have always been.
Light should be a Glass Cannon, a Class with HIGH RISK but HIGH REWARD, not just high risk...

And many may wonder: So... if Light dies so easily, it must deal a lot of damage, right? Surprise... it’s the Class with the LEAST DPS in the whole game...

Why does practically no one play Light? The game has been out for 6 months and Embark still doesn’t seem to get it... How blind must they be not to see it (or not want to see it...)?

[void scarab]

what would you think if a heavy is just as quick as a light but has the same HP?
don't ask stupid questions if you don't want a stupid answer 🙃

[dark cedar]

Follow contrats dont work in Xbox

[quick dew]

• Buff RPG
• Buff C4 (bring back nukes if you don't like them skill issue)
• Raise Mesh Shield health again
• Throwing Knives need a short reload, maybe 2 seconds after 10 knives.
• Buff Lewis + SA1216
• Lower Light HP to 100 (very needed)
• Charge and Slam should do increased damaged (only for the aerial attack)

[clear hemlock]

Agree RPG cooldown needs to go down. Crazy how this ranked meta is all triple Light. This OP class needs nerfs

So for my first match, I was playing and there was a exploiter using the front dagger stabbing ppls, it is sicking and tiring to play aginast that (Didn't get SS of that since i was focus on the game) but the second game, 2 of the 3 teamates where using the throwing knives exploits. Lost_seer and Telesnow (maybe) was just going at it with the throwing knives, instant throwing and killing ppls with it. its so bs and it needs to get fix

[glad vapor]

Nonono you don't understand, they died to a light build who was 2-6, so obviously the only explanation is balance issues 🙄

[swift crater]

the throwing knife buff is good, dont revert it 😊

[violet elbow]

good shout.

[unique nimbus]

Not sure if another bug but you can no longer clip challenges nor daily in clip panel

[river hill]

There's something wrong with the game— I keep dying

[stoic osprey]

I can't track contacts either

[young smelt]

this made me realize how much the voices suck

[cold bolt]

if I leave a game in qp intentionally I don't want to rejoin it embark just blacklist that match when I queue

[jagged cedar]

There is no front dagger stab exploit?

[vernal swallow]

tbh like make the voices cooler I wanna hear the backround announcer guy better cuz he makes the game super cool (and give more voice lines)

[stray rampart]

Facing enormous amount of lag, please look into the matter and optimize the game 💚

[wanton harness]

Cashout steals should count for the whole team.

[wheat turtle]

Stop counting death when the game is over! got killed when we won counted toward my deaths he shot me once with a sniper

[bold moth]

if they're gonna keep adding quick melee challenges, make it more consistant to hit quick melee

[ornate sluice]

Please make quick melee better if you’re going to keep making me do it for challenges. I have to throw away my k/d to earn them quick melee isn’t fun at all.

[chrome talon]

Make the challenges harder, they're too easy.

[pseudo breach]

It should be changed to something like steal 30 cashouts with team. That way no one is fighting over it

[vivid night]

Performance issues still there since that patch, nothing got changed since the last „fix“ sadly :[

[thorny pilot]

Please fix the fact that you can waste evasive dash charges during the defib reanimation animation.

[timber ledge]

Please tune throwing knives down a tad.

[queen cloud]

Trowing knifes with the "phantom strike" glitch are kinda op ngl

[bleak coral]

guns are still better, faster ttk hitscan minimal recoil

[simple quiver]

Exactly. I understand it's the objective, but now a team is fighting over who gets to steal it. I hope they don't make this same kind of mission in Season 3

[burnt notch]

If they have a grid-pattern globe icon next to their name on the scoreboard that means they are playing on a platform that’s not steam, so most likely console. Idk if you’ve noticed that but if you have that’s what it means. Unless you’re saying you’ve never played with players with that icon in which case ur right.

[drifting pawn]

anti gravity cube is mostly useless IMO; very few good use cases for it. Idea: Allow it to stick to walls and push "outward" from the wall. Would make for interesting plays with the cashouts

[gilded veldt]

Can we please get a setting to turn the crowd volume down?? If not to off then at least have different volume settings like "Low", "Medium", and "Normal". The crowd volume is just a part of SFX settings and there's been too many occasions where I can't hear my friends in Discord (their volume is at 150% already) or anything else going in the game really.

[normal lance]

option to not use you as fill in the match that is already ongoing

[uneven prism]

3 very basic suggestions one is directly able to equip from battle pass page when it unlocks and second is features like changing the party leader is very necessary and thirdly able to make custom teams in custom matches 2 as if we play in 4 people it makes a 3v1 rather than a 2v2

[heavy citrus]

Remove sbmm from quick cash, simple

[crystal cave]

Whats up devs just wanted to get my idea out there. I really like the idea of REMOVING THE STUN GUN and adding a KNOCK BACK GUN instead, however it still stuns them when they get knocked back for a second. Essentially it would serve the same purpose except better and more balanced. You can stop cash outs by knocking back the person that’s stealing. I THINK ITS DOPE LMK

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting. Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen.

[dry timber]

meh, not sure about the rpg thing it would be two op if reload time is low and hardcore nerf is reload time is to long

[violet elbow]

stun gun shouldve just been reworked to be a single target glitch ability that lasts like 10-12s (and maybe still kicks somebody off of a steal) without the movement penalty, it would be significantly more useful than it is now

[urban marsh]

that sounds really nice, but rpg should to just 90 one time

[random patrol]

there should be a way to preview the animations for locked cosmetic items when buying from inventory page, reload/deploy/inspect are all contributing factors to whether i want to purchase said item or not

[forest veldt]

Remove steal a cashout 10 times

@young smelt never said it was

[young smelt]

its not that hard stop whining

[wise cliff]

Please make it so gained cash appears in the hud and isn't just inplied in the total sum of the team, make it clear how much cash you get with each action in cashout/tournament, you already did this with scores.

Also, please add the ability to host private tournaments, the game needs these since launch.

[lavish phoenix]

I (and many others, I suspect) would greatly appreciate an option to fire semi-automatic weapons repeatedly by holding the mouse button. The main reason for this is for preventing repetitive stress injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. For example, I personally enjoy the V9S pistol on light, however for my own health I must not use it because the rapid clicking required causes growing discomfort and weakness in my index finger, eventually requiring me to take a long break from playing so I can recover.

This dovetails into another point, which is providing a level playing field for players. There are some who may be unable to click very fast due to disability or injury, as mentioned before. Allowing the weapons to be fired at the maximum rate by holding the mouse button would make the required controller input much less physically demanding, thereby equalizing players' ability to deal damage by removing an unnecessary execution barrier. As a small side benefit, comparing and balancing these guns may also be slightly easier since their effective DPS could be easily calculated.

I would be grateful if others boosted this post, since I feel this is an important concession and would very much like Embark to see it.

[latent charm]

Hahahaha what you want is to kill dwarves with one hit and then feel like a professional player XD

[open tusk]

unable to track master 4 contracts

[covert nest]

I have one sticker and one charm I use across all my weapons.
PLEASE give us a button to just equip it to every weapon, or select what weapons.
Its SOO tedious going through every weapon and gadget oh my god...

[high widget]

I was just coming to report that master circuit contracts are no longer tracking with this update

[zealous mural]

whoever made a decidion to include 5 quickmelee quest(or invented that shit in the first place) should be permanently BANNED from getting any position in videogames industry. THIS QUEST IS FUCKING GARBAGE, AS YOUR MELEE SYSTEM IN YOUR FUCKING GAME. srsly, from the bottom of my hearth - GO FUCK YOURSELF

[heavy citrus]

Still needs to remove SBMM from non ranked modes

[brisk owl]

yeah tracking is broken and the quick melee is not a fun thing to chase after

[grave fox]

I'd like to see this too. If a Light is going to try and struggle to kill me with a V9S I don't think they need to struggle from hand strain while doing it. Anyone who cheats and uses a macro for rapid fire on LH1 or V9S to kill me I think is doing the right thing and they have my support. 👍

@ Advans: You reminded me of this article, haha. Grow up and communicate like a normal human.
https://hard-drive.net/hd/video-games/designing-video-games-hard-work-millions-angry-players-make-worthwhile/

[violet elbow]

quick melee system is very good in this game idk what yall are saying, the contracts are usually some of the ones I get done first, just play aggressively

[tawdry bramble]

send the throwing knives back to the pile of shit from which they were.. the buff is abysmol to play against and now apprently they follow you...

[hearty delta]

revert knives buff

[obsidian timber]

CONGRATS Embark on ruining the game with throwing knives

[coarse owl]

Everyone meet the proplem after update with FPS?

[sweet isle]

Please shush

[pseudo breach]

Day 61 of asking to put map rotation on a timer for casual. Really sick of getting Horizon and or Vegas 90% of the time.

Also, can we please get South African servers and maybe a latency indicator?

Please fix the poor hit registration 🥲

[dapper shale]

buff 1887?

[twin heart]

1887 is in a good spot now it doesnt need buffs

[clear hemlock]

I would rather remove the stun gun and replace it with a knockback grenade instead to counter the shield and heal spam meta.

[rain hedge]

game is dead

[charred ivy]

Throwing knives are pretty busted currently, i do think it was a bit over the top buff wise.

[oblique kite]

Please add kbm support for console

[lilac mango]

Throwing knives needed a buff, but not THIS much. On a weapon which I previously literally could not play (because I sucked at aiming, that was my own fault) I can now literally cause teamwipes without the enemy team being able to sufficiently stop me.

[willow leaf]

@dry timber I don’t think it would be op. It would mainly be a destruction tool rather than a attack weapon.

@urban marsh I think lowering it and making it two shots would make it more of a destruction tool which I think it should be

@urban marsh So wouldn’t lowering the damage mean it won’t be as beneficial to do that? Also I wish I was getting these games full of charge n slam all I get is mesh shield

[urban marsh]

I mean in rank, the H only know to do 2 things, rpg , charge and slam everything that moves in front of them

[thick flame]

real, the state of heavy is cooked

[zealous mural]

i'm too frustrated from this quest. yesterday i barely finished previous one, and what i see when i log in today? yeah. They should never include quests that interupt the normal flow of the game and make you troll instead(like dmg someone with arena carriable), and the quests that involve bad ingame systems(like melee). cuz reg, dmg, range and magnetism of melee in this game is just garbage.

[wise cliff]

The Final Countdown by Europe would fit an ad for S3 so well. Imagine the hype and the scene as a team fights to get that clutch in the last seconds.

lmfao no way man

[quick coyote]

Perhaps a G11 as a gun for Heavy? 🤔

[torpid sky]

Face stab has been removed in patch 2.6, if someone managed to facestab then trust me it was probably a desync from the server

[sturdy pawn]

Played throwing knives: Most broken weapon I've played in any online game since AUG buff in CS yeeears back

[cinder ridge]

I have seen those I figured that was pc players on game pass or something. Good to know thanks. 🙏🏼

[bleak coral]

dont pretend like guns cant kill u faster more consistently and from further away

@queen cloud first person shooter and the game has goo grenade? many melee weapons etc.. i dont think first person shooter is exclusive to guns, rather any game where you can fire projectiles(hitscan or not) and is first person can be called fps?
first person shooter doesnt have strict lines and boundaries, games such as every other fps game that has weapons which arent guns are an example.
and yeah all the hitscan guns are still better than any projectile, as the hitscan weapons have faster ttk and require no leading shots.
ALSO the throwing knives left click are have random spread whilst in the air - whereas every other weapon still goes perfectly to the straight of your screen whilst in the air.
PLUS i was using throwing knives a lot before this patch, and they still feel very similar and everyone is only freaking out about it cos people are using the weapon for more than 1 match before writing them off as useless (cos they are shit at leading shots)

truth is, throwing knives are still mostly trash compared to almost every other weapon.
thats why i dont think theyre going to get nerfed.
also embark does have the stats and it must have showed that throwing knives were MASSIVELY underperforming.

[rain hedge]

Update broke game... the game is unbalanced full of hackers, it is dying and they don't do anything...they make skins hahaha

[queen cloud]

While true. Isn't this supposed to be a first person shooter? It even says it in the website.
Throwing knives are broken right now you can do phantom strikes just like with the sword.

If guns are not better and preferred in a shooter well then it's not a shooter anymore.
And please don't start with the dumb call of duty comparisons. Plenty of different shooters out there like Apex Legends that are different, but are still shooters.

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps.

Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen. Make the grapple better too.

[slow abyss]

Probably right about nerfs being to much, but if they are buffed in other ways it would keep them viable but not usable to cheese. E.g. dome having more hp, healing beam heals faster at max or has more capacity etc.

With the stun gun, it did need a nerf. Ik light was underpowered and still is, but light should be viable for other things like increased damage or stronger gadgets not a free kill on a cooldown.

[vernal swallow]

aw hell no with the rpg bruh instead just put c4 back to 2 charges so that I can do more cool strats like in s1 (not talking about nukes smh)

[graceful sequoia]

Heavys can't have so much damage. I'm playing ranked as Light and the HHM MMH meta is fucking a joke. 2 glitch grenades aren't even enough

[patent girder]

Throwing knife buff is awesome. That is all.

[orchid olive]

allow us to look around again when reviving or stealing cashout

[honest island]

It's funny that the game is called the finals and when I search for the game on Google, the finals of several random sports championships appear, but I don't know about the game hahaha

[rancid cloud]

Please keep the fix where we have to take the tactical risk of limiting our perspective when interacting with critical objectives and reviving players.

[willow leaf]

Why not both?

[echo ether]

I wish devs made burst fire weapons not require to spam fire button and added the option to just hold down the fire button so that it fires after delay ends

[woeful arch]

3v5 Power Shift game with 24 second respawn time. Lovely.

[rain gust]

Can't track master contracts. ._.

A fix is in dire need for proper progression.

i'm seeing Stage 4 of the Masters Circuit and they're all ones that we've already done. Is that a bug or for real? EDIT: also, i can't track them.

[stark notch]

got 10k damage with a marksman rifle. contract only went up by 5k 🤔

update: next game was 7k damage and only went up by 2k :)

[night glen]

I got lots of damage with my pyro grenade... 0 damage to opponents with grenades 😐

[candid flower]

Fix charge slam you shouldnt be able to stack it that many times also should lower the damage a little you shouldnt be able to eliminate a heavy with that alone👍

[ember island]

lower the amount of time it takes to go from an emote to the normal idle position. I noticed it takes me up to a full 2 seconds or so for the emote to actually end which would just get me killed, and is also very boring to look at.

[clever hawk]

Light is an insta gib class which feels horrid to play as and against + is the reason it’s useless in Ranked where coordination exists.

You either die instantly as Light or kill someone insanely fast. It will never be viable nor fun in this state.

Global damage reductions are desperately needed. No more gadgets doing 93% of a healthbar (RPG). No more nades with zero indicator leaving you at 1HP. No more endless gas, fire, turret, mines with no sound death zones. No more weapons on every class that shred at a ridiculous rate (especially auto weapons).

Also 10s is ridiculously long for health regen to begin. I suggest Light: 5s, Medium: 5.5s, Heavy: 6s

[finite briar]

manual turret is questionable if player needs to control it because turret doesn't have the highest dps and limited range so at that point it would be better off to run any gun

[obtuse yoke]

Do you want the game to he broken again bud, just revert the stun gun don't make a turret that would be pointless, the point of the not instant revive from a defib is so you can see the person spawning and shoot them once they are alive your RPG idea us good the manual turret doesn't make sense it would be too difficult to use it think it's better if they make it so it has to cool down after shooting a certain amount of bullets and a longer lock on time cos it currently insta locks, invis is nerfed to the ground right now to the point where it's just as easy to see someone that's invisible as it is to see someone that isn't and having one class be able to steal cashouts faster is unfair as the game would become unbalanced. 2 charges on grapple or something similar to that would be good too maybe even a faster cooldown timer

[quartz cedar]

❌ Manual turret

✅ Lower RPG damage
✅ Mesh Shield Delay
✅ Light Faster Regen
✅ Buff Grapple

[tight badger]

I would like to get the ability to filter my "played with" tab to only see the people who were on my team. Right now it is kinda a jumbled mess.

[sharp herald]

Please rework ranked mode
The 4 teams part of it feels a bit shitty when you technically do everything right, but timed slightly wrong, or lose because you all have 100hp.

Not sure what other competitive mode out there has 4 teams, and while it's alright for cash out, for the core competitive part of the game I don't really think it's the best implementation..

I'd suggest something like 8 teams 3v3, 4 legs, so everyone plays everyone, and the teams that bank the most cash over the 4 legs go through, and this would encourage more action and less tactically wasting time with a vault etc.

Favourite game but least favourite competitive game mode by far

[next flax]

Maybe some sort of buff the the fire grenade or fire in general. It feels really inconsistent and lackluster

[slate epoch]

got hunted in the practice range

[daring fossil]

you guys need to fix the fucking pinging system, shits literally unplayable.

[hollow wing]

Remove the ability for fauna to be lit on fire, its annoying having to watch your step when you play flame both for the heavy and the receiver

[wooden storm]

Weapon Swapping is broken after the most recent update

The Triangle/Y button on console used to swap to your primary weapon while using a gadget. (I.e when you throw one of two grenades and then press Triangle/Y to start shooting) Now you throw one grenade and press Triangle and nothing happens, you have to manually re-equip your weapon instead of being able to swap to it with a single button. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE FOR CONSOLE PLAYERS PLEASE FIX 🙏

[ornate idol]

APS is ruined now. I think just having it start it's cooldown timer when the APS is destroyed or picked up (the previous ways) would be a much better remedy. That way defeating it would reward skilled/experienced players and still defend dominantly against people who don't understand it yet. As it was the device was very easy to destroy, now you don't have to think at all. It's really sad because I really thought the APS was the most balanced thing after using it for many, many hours.

Also, it's really frustrating that we can't track contracts.

[river hill]

Pp poopoo

[zenith trout]

Add Multibucks to the end of the battle pass (After level 106) so that players that have completed it entirely get to earn more in game currency and continue the grind towards cosmetics/skins.

[magic pine]

this is bs change ranked i win 3 games in a row and my team8s which get less kills and objective points somehow rank up twice from plat 3 to 2 to 1 and ive been stuck 3 arrows up the entire time plat 3 complete bs fix the rank the is ridiculous

[wide void]

"Most balanced thing?" Bro, the thing deletes all mines on or around a Cashout Station INSTANTLY and THROUGH WALLS. People plop that thing down in the middle of losing a fight to a grenade launcher, and suddenly, they're invincible. I would have preferred them to just give the APS Turret some windup time like the Guardian Turret, but the change they went with still allows for more counterplay at least.

[glacial grail]

i think the range just shouldve been changed to a half circle or even smaller, the nerf is too harsh imo

[foggy raptor]

change “sa” in lfg channels changed to “latam” is more recognizable for us latam people to see “latam” than “sa” thank you.

[daring fossil]

should be 4-5 projectiles before it dies, there's so much nade spam in this game APS dies in 2 seconds now

[vernal swallow]

yeah seriously this game has a huge problem with something being over powered, community asks for a little nerf just to make it more fair, devs nerf said thing to the grave

@steel stone well yeah I won’t disagree it did need a nerf but the devs have a huge problem that keeps happening where they nerf something way too hard

[steel stone]

I think people are too stuck on the APS, it was stupid broken and got what it deserved for being abused, people need to get off it and hop on some new train like the throwing knives, they got way overtuned this patch and now I see them almost every game. They get to be spammed and deal so much damage right now

[unborn tangle]

why is the slide mechanic dogshit!!!!

[jaunty glen]

Where can I make suggestions ?,

[lilac mango]

Circuit contracts are repetitive to a degree where it's no longer fun to complete them. Damage with grenades feels like it's in literally everything. In fact, contracts that happened in one stage are issued AGAIN in the next stage. Come on, devs. Do something other than copy and pasting the contracts.

[vast obsidian]

I wonder why there are 4 teams in the standings and often one team can advance without having to fight and the other team has to take the crazy attacks from both teams? And this starting point for the resurrection is just stupid

Glitch nades NEED to interrupt defibs so we can counter Tipple M

[night surge]

[wise cliff]

The name of the game is almost written on it

[willow leaf]

@finite briar well of course the manual turret would have higher damage.

@obtuse yoke stun turret would give light a defense oriented gadget which it sorely needs. People didn’t like the og so it’s not coming back. Defib is still one of the strongest abilities and needs to have more counters. I don’t disagree with your suggestions for the turret I just don’t like having a hitscan ai in a pvp game and think a manual turret would be more fun, but your ideas would be welcomed. I don’t think having lights steal faster would be unbalanced at all. It would just make lights more useful. They’re supposed to be the fast class but they do everything as slow as the other classes. How exactly would it be unbalanced?

@quartz cedar what’s wrong with a manual turret?

[river hill]

Remove low gravity, thank you

[plucky moss]

seconded, do this

[high wing]

remove heal and defib and bring back skill

[hollow wing]

Events need to be removed from ranked, theyre just range from a minor inconvenience to a pain in the ass for everyone. I cannot count how many times Ive lost due to low gravity

Theyre not overtuned they have close to the same ttk as other light weapons

[minor trellis]

aps was pretty wild tbf

[muted ice]

yeah, hop on other train like how unmanageable grenade launchers are now?

[mossy karma]

Love recent changes in the game

1. I hated APS Turret but i guess it was nerfed way too much
   I believe that instead of 3 it should shoot down 4-5 projectiles before self-destruction and have a bit more HP to survive bullets better

2. Slam should be nerfed or reworked, first hit should deal 80-100 damage, all the next hits 40-60 damage, CD should be increased a little bit

Maybe it should add some minor debuff for a few seconds or throw targets away at bigger distances

3. RPG damage should be reduced to 100 but splash damage range increased

4. Lewis and M60 damage should be reduced by 1

My point is heavies already have biggest amount of HP so they shouldn't deal biggest amounts of damage too, lights need more love, amt they're almost always getting 1-shot by Heavies

5. CL-40 direct hit damage should be reduced to 90-100 instead of 110, splash hit damage reduced from 80 to 70

Revolver is a very skill-based weapon but it takes 3 shots (without headshots) to kill Light and with CL-40 u just need to land 2 shots close to Light. Unfair

[cinder ridge]

tweak the medium grenade launcher. add 10% more aoe and nerf damage by 25%. its ridiculous how strong it is if you dont have a heavy up your ass to protect you. a bronze player can use it and get 20 kills just by clicking LMB.

[deep mantle]

Diamond throwing knife user here: I think the buffs were overdone. TK was already pretty good in certain circumstances. The faster proj time combined with lower delay on fire has made the weapon practically hitscan. The fun of using a slow proj weapon is kinda gone now, it was one of the main reasons I used TK in the first place. I don't think this weapon should ever be good enough to be a meta weapon. It should be niche and fun and effective for skilled users. The right click had limited uses before, and now it really feels like right click is many times not worth touching. I suggest rolling back the changes, or at least some of them, and put some power into the right click. Either a shorter windup or the ability to hold and release (for a limited time) keep up the good work though embark. This game is really special

[half dagger]

Is this the only place where I can leave my feedback? I would really not like my opinion to be lost among others, just as it is a pity that much of what is written here may be lost from view.

We have so many cosmetics, but we can only use them in 6 slots.
What's the problem with adding more slots? I think I'm not the only one asking for this.

This moment pushes me away from buying new cosmetics. I don't want to create a new character every time to suit my mood (just like the build itself), I would be glad to be able to customize it once and choose when I want.

[river hill]

Embark you missed up my aim, give it back

[gritty wraith]

More variants for each body type per build per male/female
I can volunteer to sculpt them for you out of your base mesh so its still optimized. For free, I just like doing the art.
Can be done via morph targets so no need for new skeletons etc

Examples: (Male and Female versions for each as well ofc)
For Heavy: the base, more muscular, more fat/chub
For Medium: the base and "peak" performance (super-model?) variant.
For Light: the base and even skinnier?

If you want to hire me for other work I am open to that (Im a 3D Generalist). But otherwise im okay doing some morph target sculpting for free.

[solemn burrow]

This is a strech but I really want short films like how overwatch did.

[humble wave]

health recharge when not in sight is a good passive for light to have

[rigid shale]

mantling over a railing while holding a glitch barrel also shows the tracking dart i have selected in my hands at the same time.

[proper barn]

Please add skins for next season which actually have different models, like the stick gun. For example, maybe grips and lasers on a gun like the FCAR or have a AK without the dust cover or something

[hardy bridge]

op thing gets nerfed

Im also a Diamond player with Throwing Knives, not my main but I played it as my 2nd, and I understand the part of the slow weapon being cool, but the weapon was not rewarding at all, it had the slowest TTK on the game even being the hardest one to use, if both shoot at the same time, you will be death always, its not a matter of how good you were, a weapon that requires the enemy to do a mistake is never a good one, you could not stay on enemy sight cuz you will always gonna lose if the enemy doesn't miss, going from behind or out of sight to get kills it was not his place cuz any other light weapon can to the same with better results, dagger its literally the weapon you want if you are gonna do that

The weapon was only a niche and fun, which is okay (like dagger for example), but at the end, dagger has a reward for your skill, you can be tryhard and get rewarded, TK was not rewarding at all like dagger, it was just a hard weapon than was also a weak one, maybe the speed its too much? yeah, maybe, I would liked more damage instead of speed, like x2 headshot (instead of the x1.5 it has now) and the 63 damage it has now, but, even as it is now, its not overdone, its not even a meta, its just not a bad weapon anymore, at the end, all the automatic weapons are still stronger, it could have another aproach? maybe, we should return to the old one? no

@deep mantleThe thing is, those are were not really better than other weapons, its ttk was not one of the fastest, it was one of the slowest in the entire game, peak fighting was not that bad, but to shoot both shots of the primary you needed like half a second, most weapons can melt light in less than a second, so those 120 dmg were not worth, the only good things was being able to walk and shoot without aiming and the lack of reload but... being able to walk is just good cuz you can make the enemy miss (and thats not gonna work on high elo) and if you don't need to reload is okay but the firespeed was bad enough

[frail sage]

There could be some crowd heard cheering in the menu, they get quiet and start cheering again whenever anything in the lobby is clicked, is that intentional or a bug? lol

[floral niche]

As of the recent patch, the performance dropped significantly for me and seemingly many other people. I tried a lot and ended up just using -dxd11 as a launch option in steam and that helped a lot with the lag and stuttering. -dxd11 used to be terrible for me. I'd say the performance is on par, if not better than pre-patch without it (so, with directx12). Additionally, Nvidia Image Scaling (NiS) didn't work mostly, but -dxd11 also fixxed that. I hope this helps

[muted ice]

[deep mantle]

I see what you're saying, but I think you discount all of the things throwing knives do better than any other weapon in the game. The ability to peak cover is stronger than any other weapon. You only have to peak for half a second and can get off double the damage of an assault rifle doing the same thing. Hitting an engagement shot with a right click secures a kill 90% of the time. Infinite uptime with a ranged weapon is also insanely powerful in team fight scenarios. It's dash synergy is also the best in the game being able to dash in between shots. One of the fastest light ttks in the game. Pre firing corners, etc. When used to its strengths, it had just as good potential, if not better than other weapons at mid-close range. The only thing it lacked was good long range. Hence why I think buffing right-click would have better rounded out the weaknesses of the weapon, instead of just dumbing down the skill required for its strengths

[desert dawn]

Please Nerf Lights Melee:
-Sword animation cancel exploit still being abused making its extremely unplayable
-Remove Dagger or at least fix it, no weapon should be able to one shot kill any class (the leaving the heavy low health is a joke because there isnt much to do when they can still quickly elbow jab you). another thing about the dagger is that what considers a backstab is insane. I seen so many light main posting clips of them getting BS backstabs when it was either infront of their face or their arm

[edgy narwhal]

considering you have to have a team of friends to place as a diamond now, this game is fucking trash. please change this about your game embark.

Sometimes powershift gives you the most frustrating and annoying experiences a game can ever give you. It's beyong annoying fighting against lights and snipers constantly.

Looking at the dagger player is probably a pretty good counter. dash is not instant and trackable. You don't even need to shoot them, just look at them till they're out of dashes. I don't play dagger because I'm too ass at it

[tropic swift]

I just want to play the game with fun and not go through problems like this and waste time on snipers when I can get to the front line and actually have fun. I really don't mind losing if it was actually a fun and interesting game. Being constantly in the threat of snipers and lights instantly kills the diversity of gadgets and classes because you are forced to use setups made to prevent yourself from being sniped every game.

Now it can be a skill issue but if you have to go through stuff like that all the time just so you don't get sniped across the map and actually have a normal experience of the game, that's the proof that it's a problem.

The Finals should do what Apex does and allow users to select what Menu theme and victory theme they want to hear when in-game. I kinda miss the orginal OST

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting. Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen. Make the grapple better too.

[quick coyote]

Whoever thought it was good to give lights such low health that half the weapons in the game are able to one shot them is kind of a clown

[supple mortar]

It absolutely is not. Kills way too fast compared to every other weapon. You get destroyed before you get a chance to do anything. Maybe im biased because I use sword, but something is definitely wrong when EVERY LIGHT in queue is using these things.

[hollow valve]

Devs please hear me out, make this one of your top tier list please.

You have 93r, you have lewis, you even have dino mask. But how can you forget the legendary XM8 across Battlefield franchise???

Now medium can use a close quarters SMG like weapon. Higher dps but lower damage per mag. Let me be straight just copy the M2 carbine in Battlefield V. Make an XM8 carbine or pdw(although I just want xm8 ar but fcar is already there) which has 800-1000rpm, below 400dmg per mag, and lower recoil.

@tame quest Left red one is pack loss. If you have this you would teleport, basicly your data sent to the server is partially lost. The right one is server not performing/responding well.

[quick coyote]

The game is unplayable for half the people that tried it my guy. The performance gets worse everytime they touch the game. There is something super weird about how they mesh the servers and the games. The servers and desync are a joke half the time.

The light buff is definitely not balancing lmao. Most games I'm pairing in have a light stack with nothing but throwing knives or a medium to heal lol. (Also, 30 mins cool down tf?!)

thats cuz everyone is excited to use the throwing knives that got buffed give it a week or 2 and it should go back to norma

I honestly would love to see some gun model, character model and cosmetic drops on the steam community SFM pages so that people can use the assets from the game to create cosmetics, make SFM animations as well as be able to create concept gun and utlity skin designs.

I feel like the SFM scene has been vastly responsible in helping TF2 (#FixTF2 btw) stay afloat by having the community create so much content, way beyond Valve's support. Idk what are the conditions on the side of Embark in allowing their assets to be available, but I would love to see some fan films and animations that go beyond stuff that is able to be made during a practice game.

When it comes to the maps, I think it is a fair point that SFM would literally melt the CPU of whoever would wanna make custom animations on the maps, so maybe just porting a solid version of the maps would work fine.

Overall, just been having an absolute blast on the finals and really would love to create some content for the game that goes beyond sketched ideas. I were originally working on some TF2 + CS2 content in blender, but as my interests shifted to the finals, would love to run this high off and make some dope content for the game.

cheers

[shy swan]

lot of stuff hope something sticks and it gets seen. lmk thoughts. overall hopin to get some nerfs on heavy meta gadgets n healgun. n i love the idea of smokes for heavy. ALSO MAKE TERMINAL ATTACK PERMANENT GAMEMODE

SUGGESTIONS:

• make mouse settings more precise
• BUFF SMOKES, YOU AND TURRETS CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH THEM
• XP FOR USING MIC
• see lobby team loudouts in menu
• make option to make mantle be double jump so maybe it can heal acidental mantling
• enemy team voip when winning or during their intro
• nerf heals and give heavy smoke grenades. also let thermal vision show team colors. and make power shift platform not move when your contesting the point. buff the glitch mine.
• reduce defib health to 1/4 of their health so its not dominating mediums gadgets
• give motion sensor higher range
• make glitch mine impact or colision disable dome shields and mesh shields
• nerf barricade hp cuz its still dominant
• let data reshaper go through dome shield to get rid of the dome shield and allow dome shield
• buff some not very meta things like the c4 sa12 range the flashbang the pyromine and glitch mine and the glitch grenade the v9s the riot shield the sh1900 the dagger
• add death markers for teammate deaths in terminal attack
• glitch grenades or mines exploat and disable aps when shot by aps?
• reduce the detonation delay
• ADD TERMINAL ATTACK AS PERMINANT GAMEMODE
• fixed to the middle of the screen crosshair option
• spectator option in customs (maybe make a choose ur team screen in customs?)
• see friends selected character cosmetics. helps see differences in the list. or maybe just favorite option in friends list. or both.
• text chat
• replace bank it to save server space?
• data reshaper get rid of more than one aps n shield at once
• smaller and no ui option
• flame grenade buff? (larger radius? cuz you can still steal cashouts when they are on fire so gas grenade supperior)
• make the stun gun disable specialization

IDEAS not suggestions:

• specialization or gadget that randomizes loadout (or the gadget?) slot on use
• healing bomb for light? or healing device or drone? stationary or mobile?
• semtex? light only? (timed sticky grenade)(smaller radius?)
• make the stunn or glitch more effective the higher the hp the enemy class has?
• a black the antagonist mask cosmetic
• black ski mask cosmetic?
• allow us to rewatch the class unlock cutscenes and add cutscenes for circuits
• barret 50 cal for heavy very slow ads
• deployable that blinds any scoped in weapons when adsing at it. or just buff flashbangs to blind ads scoped things more. to counter SNIPER SPAM since smokes suck on power shift.
• stim specialization for light
• small portable dome shield that follows your movement. gadget for light.
• movement boost with mele when hitting r?
• ORBITAL LAZER BEEM THAT MOVES N DESTROYS THINGS LIKE IN HELLDIVERS lol or a gadget that summons a beam?
• gadget that make you completely silent for light

I feel the need of you to ** implementing a "i want to be revived" button** while you are down, so we can know if that person really wants to be revived or not. This because sometimes you** want to make changes on your loadouts** to fight well against the others and since your allies revive you when you decided to respawn with other weapon, class, or gadget you are forced to keep up with the same loadout. Also we can save our time when you try to revive someone and that person just click the respawn button, they just** wasting the others time.**

[gritty umbra]

thru just need to add an audio queue for when you press request revive

[frail prawn]

THROWING KNIVES IS NOW OP??... Fast answer, no, ITS NOT OP, how is op? most of the people say its because now it "melts"... well... lets compare that with other weapons (and please have in mind than this is also a projectile based weapon, which is also way harder to use than all the other weapons)

And even with the buffs.... its not even the fastest weapon, its really good ngl but its still no match for any of the real meta automatic weapons (that are also not projectile based of course) not only cuz those are a lil bit faster but also cuz its on the light class so that gets melted twice as fast as Heavy and those work on long distance

Again... how is this OP? Its harder to use than the automatic weapons, it has short range, projectile based and its still doesnt melt as fast as some of the other weapons, even some of them on the same class

@hollow valve Oh yea, you don't need to ads and you can dash... you also has half the HP, Heavy also has RPG, C&S, Medium has an automatic turret that doesn't fail single shot, Light can use dash combo with any weapon, not just TK, aim assist also helps the automatic weapons to not fail any shot to the light...

In short, it has a balanced TTK, you can move faster yeah, but you also has a harder weapon to use and not just a hitscan automatic weapon, that's whats called balance, better mobility but no hitscan and its affected by gravity (and lets not forget that moving faster doesnt matter that much in high elos where people just arent gonna miss cuz you are moving at walking speed while shooting)

Did a quick search and didn't find these. Hopefully not a repost. Crosshairs. Can we get the option to turn them off as we do with center dot or turn the opacity to zero?

You forget the no ads needed and dash combo. Only roller with 0.6 aim assist can land all your shots.

In short, it is op if you just adad. Pure ttk comparison is pointless when talking about real combat.

[potent solar]

played quick cash and powershift a bit (after a long hiatus) to complete challenges then went back to ranked. ranked is such a worse experience in terms of performance of the game and time spent not fighting. lots of input latency and lag in comparison. just feels horrible

you have a cashout theme for just about every game mode. maybe when you have events you can do something else. having the cashout or at least the grating alarm sound across all of your modes is very fatiguing. I think you should get rid of the 4v4 mode with limited respawns, idk you probably have done the numbers but I think it splits the playerbase and makes each mode empty

I can see why casuals get bored quickly with the tournaments if they are coming from other games. too long on respawn timer and when you do respawn it is too punishing when the game is on the line because of the impossible distance. maybe teams could get like a limited number of quick travels (like tokens) for the whole tourney to combat this

[idle thistle]

Aps can block two rpgs and a nade now wouldn't say it's bad, if you have 2 mediums that's 6 projectiles

This update more or less ruined PowerShift and made APS useless in every single game mode now, just because there was APS spam on the Power Shift platform. Guys, what are you doing in your balancing meetings? Just picking ideas and numbers out of a hat?

[lavish phoenix]

I don't think it's the end of the world for the APS in other game modes, since on average they don't block all that many projectiles before being destroyed by some other means. You will get screwed over hard by people using grenade launchers though.

[rustic grail]

Embark do u feel good when you are being beaten by 3 teams?

[half iris]

please consider limiting the amount of one class/weapon. Every match is plauged by lights with swords. 4 in 1 game recently. This is not enjoyable, not chalenging, every effort is squagshed by a sword, and its gettinng old now. You cant handle 4 swords, its not possible. Same with ppl stacking medium and healing, or heavies and just smashing everything and cahrging everyone, this shouldnt occure, its not fun ---- ive just joined another match, 6 light enemies. its too much. All that happens is we get the vault or run half way across the map to a cash out, maybe kill a few enemies, but will be shut down by a light every time, guaranteed. They wait invisi, u run past and then stun, ur throwing knived or ur sworded or ur one shot kiled its just discouraging. 6 in one match, its just ridiculous, you have given way too much to this class and the fact there is so many abusing it, shud highlight the fact its abusable, easy win? go lights. Its not correct for a game, it shud be more balanced and depend on awareness and aiming ability, not waiting invisi and stabing someone in the back...the fact that lighht is popular doesnt mean its good, it could mean its easy to use, easy to use is fun for a little, but it doesnt last long. Ppl will get bored of it. By then maybe the players who enjoyed the shooting mechanica moved on too.

• FPS game a First Person Shooter game where the bullet dosn't goes where you're Shooting.
• and you decide to also ban people who want the most basic mechanic in a shooter game, A FCKING PNG ON THE SCREEN, unbelievable
• like why do you even gate keep such a simple yet importent part of the game funtamentally, like give me atleast one reason why
• you know we want static crosshair when we use tape as crosshair

[uneven fox]

They should add a Stealing Tick Gadget for Light. The gadget will begin to steal a cashout but it will take twice as long as the original stealing duration is 6 seconds long. It can be easily destroyed and will make a distinct sound when activated. It can be deactivated by glitch nades, mines, stun guns, and can be easily destroyed. When it is thrown and comes into direct contact with an enemy it will pulse once like a sonar grenade and die. What do you guys think?

For example, 2 heavies, 2 dom shields barricades, Lights puts the device and runs off while the heavies protect against the enemies, meanwhile, Light goes sneaky and attack from behind.

So i don't know if that'd be really fair but it's still a great, unique ideia

[queen cloud]

How to fix game for season 3:
Balance game around guns, increase skill gap and nerf all the cheese that requires no aim/skill.
Nerf heavy, cl40, flametrower, lewis/m60, fix animation cancel exploits/phantom strike.

Throwing knives with phantom strike exploit are OP as fak. Same with sword + animation cancel. Anything that's not a regular gun should be weaker and a meme/situational.

[viral cipher]

if you think throwing knives are OP please stop playing this game and never come back thanks

[urban marsh]

Man that will be nice, cause like a turrets can be destroyed and gives ligh more team base purposes not just kill and kill

[cursive wolf]

I'm pretty sure it's a bug, that and how enemy healthbars persist through walls for a bit, embark knows afaik

[amber prism]

Please add mouse and keyboard support back to console! Thousands of us would love to play that way!

[quick coyote]

Just buy a pc.

[prime wing]

this but equipping a sniper rifle at all :))))))

[green vigil]

Give us money to buy a pc

[glacial sierra]

anyone else had what seems to be some pretty hardcore system/graphical lag since last update? never had any issues previously and haven't adjusted anything.

system is plenty good enough to run the game.

[urban marsh]

Man i got so tired, got tired of getting rpg by heavy, or when they see i won 1vs1 they charge me to easy kill and i can t do anything, they burn me with flamethrowers and again can t do anything, on power shift just sniper. I m a medium main for the first time since launch i don’t enjoy the game that much, and i m sure i m not the only one who feels the same

[slim sun]

Creator mode when ?

[low valve]

as a medium was able to counter heavies rpg by aps turret, but now its just absolutely useless gadget as they mess up their balancing as usual by nerfing stuff to ground even when that degree of nerf was completely unnecessary. FCAR would outdamage any other weapon and win vs heavies too, but now fcar is just bad. Yeah rn the game is completely unenjoyable. But at a point i did enjoy the game

[burnt notch]

Give me the cardboard xp-54 skin from the vaiiya guard emote

[lavish shard]

if you cry for anything other than lewis dmg
Charge dmg
RPG
In my opinion you can quit the game
(About heavy ofc )
🤣🤣🤣 rage big noob
The problem is ranked create a mode pro just for ranked

[queen cloud]

imagine being an xbox console pleb, thinking his opinion on balance even matters and talking shit.

Devs listening to these people + reddit is why steam charts shows game is dead and i'll never be a comp game if they keep doing it.

[urban marsh]

Is like for me as a m it takes soo long to do dmg to them to much hp, shild over shilds, they do soo much dmg in such short amout of time that is insane, they keep nerfing m and l but h is still untouched, like why didn’t you nerf them and let m and l be there, now the model 1887 is the only weapon in game that can take h, but fcar doesn’t have a chance again it 2x shots and 150 dmg, in what? 2-3 sec? I don’t know, but i really hope s3 will be different man, i m sick of the same stuff, getting killed but elements i can t do anything against. After so many nerfs is even worst than before. My friend is thinking of quitting the game at this point, and we played from day 1, “Is not fun anymore, why should i keep playing “

[keen skiff]

I think this is a great idea

[night surge]

Great idea ngl

[pseudo breach]

Christ... I wish they would stop putting you in to 1min Power Shift matches. Wtf am I supposed to do when shit's 95% over?

[last harness]

Just like a burst gun, medium is not able to outgun something more for close range engagements.
The fcar needed to be nerfed for this reason. And to fight people with more hp you should use burst firing from cover then hiding

[wispy vault]

healbeam HUD icon should have the % fill up/down like all gadget cooldowns

[spice stag]

thanks for actually just saying the quiet part loud where you just want the game to be cod slop where the only usable weapons are generic autos, literally just go play cod at this point

[somber axle]

there's a bug where players cannot track a contract, even when the contract itself is unlocked,

[queen cloud]

Srly what's up with all these kids and their cod comments? Soo many shooters that actually reward skill and are very different from cod. The finals is an arena shooter, SOO different from cod. Should take inspiration from quake / apex, those games actually require u to aim and rewards mechanics/skill unlike the finals.
Hell even overwatch rewards good aim/skill a lot more than this trash. Overwatch would be a perfect game if not for the mmo mechanics.

[cursive wolf]

xdefiant's out if you want cod lol

[lavish shard]

@queen cloud
how do you balance quikplay and ranked?

Day 5 of asking for Adaptive triggers and Haptic feedback on PS5

[lone ginkgo]

Womp womp

[sharp summit]

not bothered by it or anything but just saying

[cinder ridge]

Hovering over an aps turret is such a boring way to play. I’m a medium main aswell the game is unfun for me bc the medium class as a whole just isn’t fun anymore. The fcar has more recoil, lower fire rate, lower magazine size, and very similar damage to the akm. The only thing worth using on medium in a competitive scene is the akm. Not sure why they like to create and destroy metas when a 5-10% variation in stats to weapons would make them fall in line with each other fairly evenly.

[rough herald]

Weapon Skin Suggestion

A Duck RPG.

Fires a rocket propelled duck much like the one we can see floating in the sky in Duck&Cover arena mod.
Goes "quack" instead of "click" when reloading.

[patent night]

How to ruin the game even more:

[violet elbow]

the only weapon thats not a gun thats viable rn is sword, everything else is already a meme

[sharp summit]

please fix

[undone tiger]

the C4 equipment on the heavy has the standard skin twice as a option. i believe this to be unintended

[amber bear]

Heavy only been nerfed since the game came out. Removed Nukes from the game and people still whining. Buff the other classes but don’t nerf everything to the ground. Only RPG needs a rework.

[stark turtle]

The guns you just mentioned doesn't need nerf, the other stuff is true

[queen cloud]

Spamming cl40 at your feet, barely getting any self dmg. And doing 80-110 without even needing to aim is fine?!?! Now aps doesn't even work

Flametrower is fine?? Just go in with the tankiest class in the game, don't need to aim and just melt???

[lavish shard]

P=L i want play a shooter i play for honor but the problem is a heavy

[twin heart]

You guys are wasting your time trying to reason with askan7, dudes been crying here since 2.6 FCAR nerf, let him have his "feedback"

[low valve]

FCAR did deserve a nerf, but not even this much lol
everytime the devs just nerf stuff to ground, making the game completely unenjoyable, and yeah I have stopped playing this game, no reason to play it when I dont enjoy it anymore

[wicked tiger]

True, they shouldn't be able to kill point blank without dying. It happens WAY to much.

[slow zenith]

[twin kraken]

wait for this game to become overwatch lmao

[elder umbra]

upgrade to pc hell no way aim assit on MnK

[river hill]

It doesn't give u aim assist. Cod Cold War has this

[amber prism]

Don't be silly, obviously it wouldn't have aim assist. If you plugged In a keyboard and mouse, You would be put in PC lobbies, just like how fortnite and cod does it.

[left warren]

I just want an 93R buff. please. It feels like I'm handicapping myself every time i want to use it. it should be a much more fun weapon to use.

[amber bear]

Then what would be the difference in the LMG.

[queen cloud]

bots are the people that rely on crutches that allow them to get kills on players that are much better mechanically than them. Even if those things are not meta, it doesn't matter, it's cringe and annoying.

If it were up to me. This game would have no cheese bs. But then people like u would complain about sweats and not play. Soo a middle ground has to be struck and i'm ok with that.

@nocturnal Yes, I don't like the AR nerfs. Not just fcar. AKM is shit with less dps at range than an smg(xp54) after the nerfs. Doesn't feel good to be a medium fragger that enjoys tracking/aim anymore.
Only in the Finals LMGs outdps ARs(on a class with +40% hp) and smgs have more range than ARs...

Not saying nerf xp-54. Hell not, xp-54 and lh1 are the only light guns that feel good to play with. But ARs should have more dps at range than any smg. DMRs like LH1 should have more dps at range than ANY smg/lmg/ar and they do but not be as good as an smg upclose...

But I don't think the dev team even understands basic gun balance, from what I've seen they have 0 experience with fps games.

[shy sphinx]

You do realize this chat has like 500+ rants/suggestion per day... no way they will address 90% of this from a chat.

[graceful sequoia]

The **charge **should be reworked to do damage based on distance traveled. Maybe do 40dmg at the start and 150 at the end. Same as the jumping one, but maybe stronger. So, in that way, the destroy utility is intact, but to do damage requires a bit of skill and thinking. You could use the charge from the crane to make a "physical nuke", for example, or from a jumpad with a low gravity event. But doing it from a regular jumpad it should do like 100dmg or something like that. The pushing effect I think is fine right now.

[rough herald]

a jar of pickle is smarter then this man

[brazen walrus]

Motion sensor - what about it?
Why its for heavy? Not really useful to him be honest. Mb better for medium.
Or back it to light. After nerf hook bug i still using it. But now its for heavy
Give it back to light!

[late rock]

Hi guys

[rich saddle]

I am trully thinking that they should buff scar by a bit

[river hill]

Yep. I post more complaints/shit-posts than suggestions because I don't think my feedbacks will be recognized anyways.

[magic stratus]

It needs to go to light 100%. The role of light imo is to setup traps and the sensors. See the information, and move when necessary to stop a cashout retake. Lights need to play defense passively.

[wide saffron]

nerf flamethrower

[lavish shard]

Maybe no damage to other player but you take X% less damage when you use charge like that you can escape and destroye like a tank
@burnt notch i now bro but everybody crying so i try to found solution 🤷‍♂️ for me heavy juste rework rpg and lewis dmg

[coral axle]

DAY 9 OF ASKING FOR FSR 3.0 AND FRAME GENERATION

[burnt notch]

You know the whole point of charge is to punish players who get too close to a heavy right? Removing damage all together will make it useless. And using it as an escape already isn’t very useful considering you only go slightly faster and can be tracked easily. Even with damage reduction it’s very likely they’ll just follow you and finish you off while you charge
@lavish shard I get it I also wish everyone would just stop complaining about things that need nothing changed. Yet here we are (also yea Lewis and rpg rework is a good idea)

[graceful sequoia]

Thats not the point of charge, is to break walls and make an entry, or destroy the building foundations to deny enemies highground

[violet elbow]

this is such a delusional take

the punishment for being close to a heavy is that you are close to a heavy and will lose the TTK trade

yall just defend the instant win buttons

[glacial oyster]

PLEASE we need more body options for the female heavy!

[tired oasis]

Weapings, For the charge, simply avoid it by jumping to the side. if you want a casual game go to CoD. learn to play before asking for nerfs.

the charge has an activation delay, and the character generally goes slightly to the right, I must have died 3 times from a charge in 300 hours of play. pay attention to the cry that the heavy lets out, and don't be stuck to a wall, aim for his head while he pushes you, he is vulnerable.

[river hill]

Emote : Back Flip. The camera flips

[quick coyote]

Activation delay in question is practically instant.

[upper citrus]

Lewis gun should have more range but significantly less damage/rof. Heavy shouldn’t really have any great ranged options. This would create a very tangible difference between the Lewis and m60 while keeping both healthy for the game

they're changing ranked in s3 dw

also can i get in to the training range w myself or even my party while i wait for a game? also can you add a heavy shield to the heavy in training? a bug i found myself doing while in combat i close a door behind me and i will find myself stuck in the door 🫦 can we also have the ability possibly to have kill replays? and add a cool little option to save the kill on the killers pov and add match replays pls I love seeing the game ! and can we have match replays w a fly mode

-Add vote map before start a game i tired play always same map

[cyan pilot]

Please fix the ui bug in which is shows the wrong teams wipped in the top left half the time. There's also an issue where the wipe sound will not play upon finishing off a team

[queen cloud]

Embark this is what i would do to balance out the game:
Light:

• Revert cloak activation cost
• Stun gun stops heavy from using rpg/mesh
• LH1 dmg reduced from 49 to 47. Since the silent recoil buff LH1 became a bit too strong.
• Fix sword exploits
  Medium:
• Revert APS nerf
• Revert AKM recoil to release patch (this should be the noob friendly ar)
• Revert FCAR to 25 dmg and 20 bullets (this should be the higher risk AR, right now it's just an akm with less ammo)
  CL40 dmg reduced from 110 to 100. Self damage 2x
• Healbeam overheats faster
  **Heavy: **(This class needs a huge nerf)
• RPG damage reduced from 140 to 100 OR make it two charges 60-80dmg each.
• Flamethrower dmg reduced by 10%.
• Lewis dmg reduced from 25 to 22
• M60 dmg reduced from 22 to 20
• Mesh shield now has a 5sec cooldown after you toggle it off.
  Other changes:
• Make grenades more visible / audible. There are many instances where grenades are not visible/audible.
• Explosive Mines can only be placed 4m or more apart. All mines have a 5sec activation delay.
• Movement reverted to patch 2.5.0. With patch 2.6.0/2.7.0 there are a lot of dead slides.
• Added option to disable AA completely. (TAAU too blurry, dlss even worse).
• Optimization!
• Revert console aimassist to where it was when it was first nerfed but remove snap assist from all guns. (It was silent buffed recently and it's WAY too strong)

[novel lily]

stop making the career challenges do (random number) damage with shotgun or melee. its boring

[tired oasis]

it's the animation rendering that is wrong, play Heavy, launch the charge, you will see that you have a delay of 1 second before your character begins the charge.

throwing knifes are way over tuned. the projectile speed buff was alright but to also buff the damage at the same time? throwing knifes weren't even that bad to begin with they really didn't need this.

[high moss]

gois the spawn i think must be fixed. really we would focus on meta guns if we just had a exciting play through. basically with these new spawns you have to be dominating you're opponents and not dyeing. thats the reason why you have so many medium sweats as they're high survivability with the defib/heal. respawns now don't give you alot of chances, and are usually far away. if we decrease spawn times, spawned closer to objectives, and fixed the issue where you'll spawn all the way across even if the cash box is right by the vault then players will have more chances to kill the enemy team or steal the vault. i think that this fix should be first added to cassual then ranked modes, just in case ranked players get mad at people stealing the box at the very end. also make sunglasases and 3d glasses opaqe.

[quick coyote]

I played heavy, a lot. Charge is actually braindead, idk how long the windup is exactly but it's way too short for any player to react to.

However now I get 3 fucking down arrows towards ELO unless I make it to the final round. It’s getting to be REALLY frustrating.

[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)
• Increase damage from 84 to 90
• 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)

THE LATEST BUFF ISN'T WORKING:

• From your POV it does look like you're covering yourself faster, however after testing it with other people we can confirm that infact you don't block faster and you can't block between swings, you're constantly exposed

FIX THE FOV WHEN HOLDING THE SHIELD UP:

• 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)

HOLDING THE DAGGER BACKSTAB:

• Make it so you can hold the backstab and it's not a forced animation, revert it like it was in the Open Beta

GIVE SMOKE GRENADES TO ALL CLASSES:

• 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

[worn spade]

only 1k players to go down to the historic 5k simultaneously connected players, and I still don't see MnK support for consoles

just the damage buff and the glitch effect would make the riot shield way too overpowered. its already pretty good @rich inlet real

Thank u Devs for the great time with this game, but sadly this game feels more and more one dimensional and does not reward gun skill at all, as the meta is either the throwing knife or the grenade launcher or some other stuff like Riot. Why bother keeping AK, Scar and other guns? Sad to say but your game is not for solo Q players at all. Thank you again for past 3 month's awesome time. Time to go back to good ol' COD

• APS gets nerfed, buffs to melee (riot) and throwing knives are here
• people start using grenade launchers and the other buffed weapons
• complain about the same weapons they wanted to be buffed

[cinder ridge]

If they did balancing changes rather than hard nerfs your statement would be relevant. If they wanted the throwing knives to be used more they could’ve done a lot less than buff them in every single category possible. The last cod I played was 2019 and I vividly remember creating the worst classes possible and going 20-0 in snd. With the crutches and instakills and overtweaked weapons in this game It’s not all that viable. I agree with the attitude part but embark has to do a better job not gutting weapons or lifting other weapons well beyond what they should ever be.

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting. Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen. Make the grapple better too.

[smoky ibex]

I personally think that it would be a great idea if all items from former Battlepasses would still show the text "Reward in the season (x) Season"
This is prob. not a hard thing to do.

Also I think it would be pretty cool if you were able to use EMOTES in the ingame lobby!

play Asian servers where the high ping icon is always white or red, with randoms solo-q ing, reach Diamond, then talk smack please. Otherwise keep ur opinion to yourself and don't bother replying. Also, I came to this game from COD for the very same reasons COD is bad, and this game is going the same route. Have 3 full bundles along with the battle passes, not a free player too. I don't care if something is nerfed or buffed, there is no gameplay variance. What is ur counter for RGL when the full team is using it and spamming? Let me know if u want.

we've had decent audio since 2004, where the hell has it go???

[unique wasp]

seconded for map tools, albeit I don't think it'll happen. feel like the game is begging for more map variety than Embark can reasonably be expected to put out on their own with all the destruction potential and interactivity

[exotic sandal]

I been using Dolby Atmos virtual sound feel like it helps a little

[patent girder]

What you want to do is take a leave of absence from work, don’t shower, drink caffeine like an ospuze junkie, and don’t speak to any women for the next 2 weeks... jk. I got it with 2 tourney wins and then a last round loss all in a row. If you’re solo queue you just gotta keep trying until you get lucky with a good team that sticks together and plays well. Don’t even queue unless you’re on your A game though because you are 1/3 of the team. Take a 15 min break after every game or your brain will be fried and you’ll never win back to back… and remember; no showers. Lol

[stuck torrent]

why I qualified 1 or 2 times, but my rank still keep losing

[high wing]

if s3 doesnt have like the most important QOL updates this game gonna stay uninstalled

Lol, like a latency indicator?

[sand mesa]

i cant track challenges. it makes the noise when i go to track a challenge but nothing happends. very upsetting

[novel lily]

stop making all the use weapon challenges melee and shotgun, id much rather have fun thanks

[crystal cave]

Remove the stun gun completely and add a knock back gun instead that temporarily stuns them as they get knocked back. I think it would make for a better gadget overall and would essentially serve the same purpose when it comes to stopping cash out steals. Add a harpoon gun to the heavy, add a bubbling ability to the heavy, you can bubble your teammate from range, like zarya. Add a speed bomb to the heavy. Add stationary healing abilities that can't be destroyed: this would also help make the data reshaper better, also make the anti gravity cube unable to be destroyed, this would make the cube better and data reshaper better. Add a sticky situation live event, where everything is sticky and you can run on walls. Add a rewind ability to the light like tracer. Add a p90 to the heavy. add a gaunlet type weapon to the heavy, something like doomfist. Add a giant sniper to the heavy. Make the heavy grenade launcher explode on impact as soon as you hit someone.

[river hill]

I can't hear light's footsteps, just because they small don't mean I cant hear them

[woeful arch]

I love the Finals, devs listen to lots of feedback and it shows in the game and this is one of the healthiest gaming communities I've joined. My feedback is just love, love, love ❤️

[hushed prairie]

i agree with the stun gun one

[spring rover]

Hey devs, since the last patch it happens regularly that I am stuck in the loading screen even when the game starts. I’m playing on ps5 and had this issue already at beginning of S2 but never in the last weeks.
Seems to happen most of the time in power shift (can’t really remember if it occurred in other modes too). Hope it gets fixed soon and I wish you good progress for developing S3.

[cloud jungle]

The latest patch introduced a nasty bug on controller that removes the option to map a button to just 'Equip Weapon' instead of 'Interact and Equip Weapon' when using 'Directional Equipping'.
That's a real controller nerf in ranked especially since it will mean accidentally interacting with stuff when meaning to equip your weapon - which can and will be the difference between life and death sometimes, so please please please revert this.
And while you're at it: please reinstate using 'Equip Weapon' as a reload cancel as it used to be in Season 1, since reload cancelling using a gadget/specialization can be very inconsistent because the gadget/specialization can be on cooldown.

You're forced to look around to properly equip your weapon now. This is insanely clunky and I'm unable to play until this is fixed.

THESE SHOULD BE SEPERATE BINDINGS ON CONTROLLER. THERE ARE ENOUGH BUTTONS WITH AUTOSPRINT

[midnight bison]

I keep getting matched against triple stack top 500 players while being plat 1. Does the system thinks that these are fair matches? I'm seriously considering to stop supporting and playing this game because there's no point in grinding these stupid unbalanced matches against diamond 1 human aimbots...

[iron tiger]

They really need to make it to were if your teamates steal a cashout it counts toward your "Steal x amount of cashouts" challenge. Not to mention imo that's just an annoyingly difficult challenge in the first place. Although I try and play mainly for fun and haven't touched ranked in awhile.

[mild gull]

this is a very good idea. it should do the same as the stun gun in a sense of preventing cashouts but without it's inherently annoying characteristics

[meager sentinel]

no way i just won 2 tourneys in plat 1 and still got this 😭

[patent girder]

I went up to diamond after 2 wins and a final round loss.. good luck my friend 🤞

[dull merlin]

Okay, I don't want to seem like I'm complaining. But, I am. As a heavy, I shouldn't get 2 tapped by a fricking light. I am fine with snipers since they actually have some skill, but not with the aim assist throwing knife abusers. Like please, nerf it just a little bit. One hit shouldn't do 126.

[uneven rampart]

Unintentional or not? I've noticed this wierd "bug" or "feature" whatever you wanna call it where I am no longer in the middle but on the side positions

[clear hemlock]

Embark decided to put a stop to our main character complex that was developing

[misty walrus]

IM NOTICING THAT WHEN PLAYING FCAR , I HAD AIM ASSIST AS A PC PLAYER AND I DIDNT KNOW HOW TO TURN IT OFF, PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS

[junior sigil]

idk what u did, but my fps after update is 40% lower then befor patch, it dropped from 75 to fucking 40 wtf

[stray rampart]

Also happens at the start, where you run through that red room

Honestly I want to stay in the middle. So maybe make an option?

[pure ore]

leavers are becoming too common is casual modes. Almost every 2nd game I join in already ongoing game. It's not acceptable.
We need some sort of leaving penalty in casual modes, not owerwatch level, but SOMETHING. It's becoming unbearable

[winter verge]

Can we lower the amount of Money lost when my Team gets wiped after teammates left?
Like I am the only one left in my team and I die and I get the "Teamwipe" shit. ;(
There was a chance of me winning 1v3v3v3 but not with the -30%

[lament talon]

The player count is in the bins🚮 because you took away what the finals is.
Something special with special combos and playstyles now it's just another shooter where its only about gunplay and "100% balance"

If you really wanna save the game do something drastic be bold:

1. Add a new ranked gamemode
2. Bring back unique combos (like nukes but not that strong of course)
3. Give us quality of life changes like a killcam
4. Give us real progression not just for skins (Take the Journeymode from Fifa as inspiration) [do the same but with sponsors]
5. Host a community tournament (since casual players don't stick around in FPS games)

[cinder ridge]

Add a death match game mode or drop the respawn timer on bank it to 3 seconds

[small prawn]

bring back Fcar damage and lower mag capacity. You are guaranteed to die if it's a 2v1 and you are using fcar now. it makes playing medium even more boring now.

[severe wave]

💯

[queen cloud]

But then all them heavy crybabies cry they getting beamed from range, where medium shines. Even though they have faster ttk vs any medium/light. FCAR with only 20 bullets need a nerf in their head 😄

[tight garden]

best TTK and magazine size and health pool on a single class?? surely embark do be dazzling with the balancing stuff sometimes

[young smelt]

is this a joke?

[woeful arch]

nope

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting. Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen. Make the grapple better too.

[high wing]

so many cheaters again....

[strong thistle]

Hey, anyone else has the issue of the steal cashout in progress mission not updating? mine seems to count only one per game, if at all?

[frail sage]

man I really wish we could have optics/scopes on every gun, those iron sights get real annoying real fast, especially with all the gas, flame, goo, and visibility reducing stuff going on

[zinc fern]

Can you for the love of fucking god fix your connectivity issues, I’m sitting here just trying to reconnect to a game and it just times out. Thanks for fucking my rank up Embark🫡

[steep sigil]

i really hope they don’t add attachments. it’s unnecessary.

[rigid shale]

what's the highest consecutive number of matches you've played in which at least one player in the lobby leaves mid-match? mine's TWENTY THREE.

leaving a match mid-game on a whim is the state of the game. bad fight? leave. teammate doesn't have the loadout you want? leave. it's incredibly frustrating and difficult to enjoy the game. it is the very worst part of the game.

inb4 "just play with teammates"
the problem is entirely within Embark's ability to resolve. i've never seen a culture of spineless quitters go unmitigated for so long. harsher penalties for leaving a match mid-game in every mode with loss protection in ranked for those who remain would be incredibly simple to implement and would create an overall better experience for everyone.

If you queue up for the match, finish the match, win or lose.

[tardy jacinth]

I can't track contracts

[stark notch]

Nah it was all the light crybabies. Even though they have dash, cloak, grapple hook, or even moving into cover to avoid dying...now they nerf medium every patch even though heavy has been the problem from the get go.

FCAR and AK are virtually the same weapon now

[wintry trout]

make sniper a projectile weapon instead of hitscan, or reduce the damage, or add damage falloff, or some combination of all of these.

[brazen canyon]

bro gave a whole explaination 😭 leave bro alone "erm actually its unnecessary 🤓 ☝️ " yapyapyap

[frail sage]

I don't think anyone decides what's necessary or not, I just reported what I feel uncomfortable with, and I said scopes, not attachments in general. They could just give guns SCAR's 1x times holo-optics for better visibility

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps.

Would make the game way better but we will see think saison 3 will have alot changes

[pseudo breach]

Day 62 of asking to put map rotation on a timer for casual. Really sick of getting Horizon and or Vegas 90% of the time.

Also, can we please get South African servers and maybe a latency indicator?

Please fix the poor hit registration 🥲

[polar hill]

stop forcing us to use upscaling ffs

[glad vapor]

You should be avoiding 2v1 scenarios in the first place. Besides that, the FCAR is still perfectly capable of killing people. You want it to be dominant, though, and that's not a reasonable expectation.

[light tinsel]

Embark fix the descartes demon headwear to allow face wear items when it is equip, and i agree with @Fab completely.

[mild gull]

this guy wants a weapon that can consistently win 2v1s hahaha good joke

[small prawn]

you mean like most of heavy's and lights weapons? Plus that's not what I mean. The Fcar now is definitely a weapon that can kill, but it's not something that you can rely on anymore. For example earlier I win 1v1, but since the weapon has such a long ttk now it makes me easier target when his buddy arrives. I can 2v1 with light and heavy easy, when it comes to medium that's a different story.

[queen cloud]

I mean, in quick cash I consistently win 2vs1 even with fcar nerf.

But fcar is decently weak when compared to the other classes arsenal

[jagged thunder]

There is a consistent crash happening on most maps, i get stuck in the match loading screen for minutes on end only for unreal to crash and heres the message "Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000368", this is preventing people from playing the game, Embark i love you but this needs addressing

[tight garden]

what i would suggest is since ELO gaining is tied to how much money your team cashed, getting to the final round of a tournament should be feeling more rewarding rather than having the "worst case we second" scenerio. With that said why not just augment the cashout limits to idk like 50k each?

[lilac mesa]

I'm so glad there are challenges like "do x amount of structure damage". In Powershift I just had 3 people running around with sledgehammers and just tearing apart buildings the whole time. Thats fun

[solemn burrow]

I get a small probably not that important bug with the stereo emote (the boombox one) where the audio cuts out midway thru the emote. dont know if this is intentional but if not hope it gets fixed

[cold bolt]

don't add text chat or I will get myself banned from the game

[keen siren]

Can we do something to make the numbers on the ranked badges a bit more readable too? Feels like you have to squint more than you should on an average sized monitor just to see the number because the colors don't contrast very well.... Small nitpick

[daring ravine]

Voice chat is still broken on Xbox , I can see people talking but I cannot hear anything. I've checked all my volume levels, restarted game, tried leaving and rejoining VC nothing works

[slow void]

Remove lights and Medium they are useless ... only heavies ... it's an heavy base game ...

[clear vale]

I can't track contracts ☹️😠

[gritty dust]

What's going on with the serwer guys? EDIT: sry caps

[slow sparrow]

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ADD BACK THE LOOKING AROUND WHILE REVIVEING THAT WAS SUCH A GOOD QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGE also leave the aoe damage on the melee weapons it makes them feel better and more playable imo

[lavish shard]

P = L shut up please

[keen shoal]

moolah

[ocean shore]

embark please stop giving us high ranked diamonds in our lobbies. theyre more than a full rank above us and you can clearly tell how big the skill difference is

[willow leaf]

[gritty wraith]

More variants for each body type per build per male/female
I can volunteer to sculpt them for you out of your base mesh so its still optimized. For free, I just like doing the art.
Can be done via morph targets so no need for new skeletons etc

Examples: (Male and Female versions for each as well ofc)
For Heavy: the base, more muscular, more fat/chub
For Medium: the base and "peak" physique (super-model?) variant.
For Light: the base and even skinnier?

If you want to hire me for other work I am open to that (Im a 3D Generalist). But otherwise im okay doing some morph target sculpting for free.

[wintry trout]

you must be daft
lmao
you can still do them
I literally did the entire week's contracts wednesday night when they came out and I just screenshotted the contracts and put them on my second monitor after each game so I had a rough idea of where I was
don't tell me you need to be fucking spoonfed to do shit you're already doing

[rose verge]

ive never tracked a contract ever, maybe they should work on more pressing issues

[placid vortex]

would love to see anorexic lights running around like starving children lmao

skyway stadium sucks for power shift. Its mostly the spawns and I feel like when spawning on one side i always win and on other i always lose. also i might be biased because i was born in syshorizon.

[plush fjord]

also can sm1 tell me in detail what did they exactly do to throwing knives

[bold moth]

who the hell responds to people here?
I stand by this, this is not a mode where you can stop a team from playing for 30 seconds, it shouldnt be in this mode

[fiery orbit]

Make meeles hit for example 2 enemies at most, but the second one gets reduced damage. And also make reshaper able to reshape mid air, for example when a red barrel is thrown, it could be a nice buff and another tech/mechanic to this gadget

[unreal fossil]

I can't really pinpoint why, but S2 is wearing down my interest for the game, after 500+ hours spent playing since its release. I'm not convinced by the successive updates that rolled out throughout the season, and the overall feel of the game seems to have worsened significantly in comparison to S1. I think I'll be mostly off until S3.

[tacit crater]

what the fuck...
Ranked with no 3 member and you get minus elo????
So not since one has left the game simply no 3rd member.
Is it still hanging with you?

You’ve been playing an unfinished game for 500 hours it’s probably burnout and lack of content.

[pseudo latch]

Day 76 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. No headshot modifier to keep DPS from becoming insane.
• 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, you’re probably not getting higher than 150 DPS even as far as 10 meters.
• bullets do high damage to structures (should be breaking walls in 20-50 shots) 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, no “pocket minigun” strats, choosing to use this mid-combat is a commitment, one that could get you killed.
• - gun has to spool up for a second before firing, spool up being LOUD

Also it’s pride month starting tomorrow, so I’m curious if we’ll get any cosmetics around that? I’d even settle for some little patches you wear in the same place you have the phone case.

[keen beacon]

this u?

[velvet olive]

Can you please fix Masterclass Jacket on Heavy :), the left arm cuts into the jacket

[warped haven]

anyone else feel like the career circuits could be way more interesting to complete? a lot of them are stuff like "heal 2,500 health with a heal beam" and "deal 15,000 damage with a medium build" when there could at least be some fun stuff like "kill a contestant with an arena carriable" or "emote just before getting a kill" or "kill a contestant by throwing a mine directly on them" or "quick melee a full hp contestant" or "kill a contestant with the defibrillator" etc.

[slim sun]

Creator mode when?

[solemn burrow]

I feel like the LTMS should be used as an experimental mode to test out balancing ideas. Just a thought.

[hardy bridge]

Will you shut up no one wants your shitty suggestions in the game

[hard bridge]

i dont know what embark will do surrounding pride month due to its divisive nature

[unreal fossil]

I've had lots of fun for the most part, hence the time spent.

But it's been getting frustrating lately for me and my friends who also love the game.

[solar oak]

can anyone else not track contracts?

#game-announcements

[pliant lion]

Why does the M1887 sometimes deal 160 damage up close (and sometimes even at a significant range)? I've seen it plenty of times but I can't imagine it's supposed to be a 1 shot kill weapon on lights?
According to most sources I can find the weapon shouldn't have a headshot multiplier and does a set 128 damage if it's a good hit.

All screenshots I've taken were from tonight and I'm 100% sure I've only been hit once on all occasions. Might this be some sort of hitreg bug like there used to be with the C4 during season 1. I remember sometimes 1 C4 would deal double damage when you got nuked by it.

[slow sparrow]

Hot take keep the aoe damage on yhe melee weapons it makes them feel way better to use if you have good timeing and skill with it and its not an exploit like phantom striking which NEEDS to be fixed also bring back looking around when reviving /cashing out it was a great quality of life change

[drifting lintel]

Add Solo Rank Matchmaking!! Tired of diamond teams owning everyone

[celest cairn]

the finals need a favourite button so we can cycle through our favourite skins, charms etc. I bought the battlepass and have multiple skins I want to put on which a favourite cycle would be excellent for!

[slate grove]

Ye

[sharp belfry]

Please bring back looking around when reviving/stealing cashout.

[quick coyote]

The steal cashout challenge should track teammates doing it as well, it's bad enough trying to fight other teams and one person gets the credit. It's even worse when you expect players to get so many across all the challenges if you want all the rewards.

[idle mural]

i hate the fact that they remove cosmetics from the shop, im gonna leave it here (also yes they did)

[rapid pike]

Would be cool if I could "like/upvote" a player after game. Also a "sorry" comm ping would be neat

[vapid crystal]

They did?

[white oracle]

sooo, me and a guy that I found in game where playing ranked. but after playing some games we got in to a game where we hade zero teammate. he never join back and be never saw him in loading screen. but even being 2 people we still made it too the second game, but in second game we sadly lost it, and got 3rd. but this is the weird thing, when we lost I check how many rank arrows (or what you should call it) and I was down 3. most the times I will be up 1 or maybe lose 1. I think its bad that you lose more points without a 3rd teammate then if we actually got one

[mortal glade]

Can we get an option to auto pull weapon back out after throwing/using equipment? Sick of throwing a nade only for it to pull out the 2nd same with barricade etc

[tawdry blaze]

why doenst it count when you kill someone with a flower pot?? whats the point in having achievements when you cant even get it??

[cunning peak]

you can still buy cosmetics after htey leave the shop

[polar ermine]

dead game - literally stop patching it, let people cry, they will - just like babies - tire themselves out. Every time week I come back to this game it's got some other bs patch to introduce casual ease of satisfaction for incompetence. Why the fuck are heavy grenades fromt he launcher so damn loud as well, wtf is wrong with you people

[slow sparrow]

Hot take keep the aoe damage on yhe melee weapons it makes them feel way better to use if you have good timeing and skill with it and its not an exploit like phantom striking which NEEDS to be fixed also bring back looking around when reviving /cashing out it was a great quality of life change also can we get icons letting us know which platforms others are on aka pc player seeing that their team is on xbox and plastation or plastation and xbox seeing that their team is on pc or the other

[vagrant raptor]

can we please get a mgl buff this things been trash for 2 seasons

[willow leaf]

lol no. Multiple people have agreed already.

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting.

Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen. Make the grapple better too.

[mortal steppe]

You guys should add the ability to save outfits. I love all the customization when it comes to how a contestant looks and I love making new outfits for them. I find that 6 slots just isnt enough lol. You should be able to save outfits so you can still have them if you want to change your current outfit. You should also be able to swap or copy/paste outfits to other contestants too. Its not a huge change but it would be a time saver and allow people like me to make a crap load of cool outfits lol. You could also do this for weapons and equipment but those are easier to do so not as big of a priority. Thank you!

[night surge]

great ideas ngl

[solemn burrow]

imma say it again cuz i think its a good idea, it would be nice if the LTMs (limited events) tested out balancing ideas, (like rpg 2 shot etc.) without fully implementing them. Like an experimental mode type deal.

[scenic forge]

I strongly suggest that you take a look at this

[fleet trellis]

I don't usually do this, but I can't help but be frustrated at the thought of Embark falling asleep. They have a good game but not enough aggressive communication about their games.

The trailer communication, which can be seen on youtube, is very well done and perfectly demonstrates the current game. These trailers can very easily be exported as ads on tiktok and instagram (or the equivalent for other countries such as China and Korea) as 30s video ads for these platforms, and also as 10s quick ads for the reels. This will enable Embark to adopt a more aggressive approach to communication via tiktok and instagram, and an equally classic approach on youtube.

the second part, which should have been done by now. Communication with streamers.
Everything went well during the beta. Keys were given, streamers played... Then nothing.
Okay, let's make a long story short and here's the solution:

Sponsor popular streamers/youtubers (EU, US, Asia), and offer them a collab in the game. Through this collaboration, popular streamers/youtubers will have the right to their own in-game products (stickers, skins, charms, emotes...) and for some, maps dedicated to their own image, their own universe (take DR disrespect de son Arena for example). This will encourage fans to install the game and buy in-game, which will naturally contribute to the game's economy and reputation.

This strategy has both advantages and disadvantages. But I hope it will be taken into account and given more thought by the Embark communications team

And to take it a step further, once the game has become a huge success.
Create their own merch (clothes, drinks, stickers) in real life

[blazing moss]

For some reason my contracts are not able to be bookmarked : (

i wish the teams show screen the one that right before the game begins is just like the video that just dropped in #game-announcements in the first seconds ik that's from a trailer but i remembered it when i saw it in that channel that would be so cool and new and with all those smoke and reflections would be beautiful and it's just a little screen for a short time so it should be high resolution quality in-game too, i hope💙

oh yeah love it when people cheat
never missed a pellet with the model, killed everyone basically instantly, we only managed to kill him when there was like 3 of us behind him and he was focusing on someone else. would turn and kill us if we were behind him alone, or even 2v1, would find us anywhere under the deepest labyrinth of building rubble. classic. good job anti-cheat

EMBARK?? WHY DO YOU HATE US? The last challenger circuit has a few Marksmen challenges, and all I see now are at least 2-3 snipers per game. VERY POOR DECISIONS ON YOUR PART.

Maybe try and promote new playstyles with the weekly challenges? Make people go out of their comfort zone to do the challenge!

Game 1: FAMAS expoiter
Game 2: Heavy teammate fully drunk, trolling since min 1 suiciding, throwing the vault outside the map, etc
Game 3: Teammate die pushing alone, insta rage quit.
Game 4: Same drunk guy with Heavy, my other random almost loose his mind
Game 5: Two guys playing worst than bronce, so I think we need cardboard rank now.

This is the worst SoloQing experience that I had in years.

Heavy with a sledgehammer would win every time..

[quick coyote]

Can terminal attack be like nba playoffs where instead of 3 rounds as attack/defend, can it be 2 rounds as attack/defend then switch roles to make it more competitively even because 3 rounds in a row as either role gets can gets kind of stale

[regal violet]

I noticed that I can't track challenges and add party or even join.

[lilac mango]

Nerf charge and slam damage. RPG 2 charges way less damage with a longer reload between the 2 charges.

[slow sparrow]

Hot take keep the aoe damage on yhe melee weapons it makes them feel way better to use if you have good timeing and skill with it and its not an exploit like phantom striking which NEEDS to be fixed also bring back looking around when reviving /cashing out it was a great quality of life change also can we get icons letting us know which platforms others are on aka pc player seeing that their team is on xbox and plastation or plastation and xbox seeing that their team is on pc or the other

[willow leaf]

Lower rpgs damage to around 50-70 and give it two shots. Give a delay to mesh shield so you can’t open it instantly. Replace the healing beam with a healing circle that you place down like the aps. Also add healing bombs. Replace turret with a manual turret instead of a automatic one. Make it so you have to turn off cloak before you can do anything else like shooting. Replace the stun gun with a aps type gadget that stuns people like before the nerf if you’re in its circle. Make it so you can cancel a defib revive by shooting the silhouette it makes and make glitch grenades cancel it too. Allow lights to steal cash outs faster and have faster regen. Make the grapple better too.

[solemn light]

Change the region to oceania, you will thank me

[grave rivet]

Could be ban from the mode like the heal is in TA, just an idea or maybe only canisters count towards destruction points

yo canceling a defib would literally be awful. would completely take away the point of carrying the defib 🤣

If heavy isn’t nerfed for season 3 we are so fucked

Throwing knife buff

[hardy bridge]

rpg change would make it worthless
mesh shield is fine
healing beam is perfectly fine
healing bombs would be fine
manual turret would suck ass why place a manual turret when you can shoo them yourself
just revert the cloak nerf
stun circle would be absolute aids to play against
cancelling defib revive would make it useless also defibs are fine where they are
light changes are the only valid ideas

[keen skiff]

so tired of having 3+ light snipers on my team in soloq powershift. theyre detrimental to the team and are single-handedly making the gamemode worse. their "meta" involves neglecting the platform even when they're needed and only caring about kills instead of team efforts. additionally, most of them I see actually do worse performance wise than their medium and heavy counterparts, which often do better while also helping the team as a whole. my rant has concluded and this comment will now fall into irrelevancy

[river hill]

They should remove snipers 🙂

1. can we get a ranked feedback channel? It feels like other game feedback is getting lost in the mix

2. I would love the option to toggle that once you have thrown a nade it switches back to your weapon.
   I keep forgetting that frags have 2 and go to shoot people lol

[lost linden]

I would love to see new gadgets, guns, a meta, along with a kill cam, final kill in terminal kill cam, possible rail gun type class for heavy that can make holes in walls. Just a few of my suggestions😊

[flint dock]

The ''problem'' imo with throwing knives is now that they've been boosted. TK mains who have learned to use them and adapted is wrecking absolute havoc.
They defo need to tweak them a little, defo get rid of the emote cancel crap that turns it into an SMG.
What i love for them to do is to give it a ''magazine'' its absurd that its a ranged weapon with no reload or down time.
You can literally spam down the enemy, just make them waste their bullets which can feel unfair. :/

[dawn hazel]

emote cancel needs fixed now please, all i will say

happy men’s mental health month (i know pride month is also on the same month, I mention men’s mental health because it’s overshadowed by pride month, and I also message it in this channel so it’s seen rather than getting drowned in the sea of messages in the general chats)

[stark notch]

I feel like a healing station would be more strong than a heal beam. the healer is out of the fight, but with a healing station both teammates can be lasering the enemy players while sitting in it. just look at xdefiant for example, it's super cheesey. you would have to make it so the owner cant be healed or maybe they cant be healed while getting shot, which then would probably make it worse than the heal beam

[mint lintel]

I mean don’t diss the celebrations of both, both there for a reason🎉

[somber axle]

Same problem here

[tropic swift]

I totally agree! Powershift needs something to slow down the spam of lights. It’s beyond annoying to be both the enemy and the teammate of a sniper player too.

[tame crag]

When ADSing a grenade launcher, it should display a trajectory line similar to while prepping a regular grenade.

If even possible, the bounce trajectory for the MGL would be great, though that is less predictable as the environment can easily change.

[flint dock]

Quite possible but it's my opinion and I'm sticking to it until somebody gives me a reason to change. =3

Would like the heavy health dropped a tiny bit. I could dump an entire sub mag into these guys and they still manage to have a quarter health left over and I had the upper hand until I had to reload as a Little. Make the damage more fair for all contestants.

HP pools of each class is fine and you can one clip a heavy with SMGs lol. You have bad aim, work on it

[novel mauve]

I got a list of things I think embark should do something to:

1. more zone util, the only util we have right now is the gas nade (fire as well if you decide to count that), and its kinda weak when it comes to zoning anyways
2. buff fire (nade), this shit is weak yo, its on the same level as smoke
3. smoke has like 3 different variants and idk if thats supposed to happen or not, sometimes it covers you fully and other times you can just see through it
4. more events, god damn this gets boring when I have low gravity for the 20th time today
5. buff weapons/util such as: 93r, that one shit ass shotgun for heavy that isn't the SA, anti-grav cube, and my beloved data reshaper
6. idk how but you guys gotta either get rid of c4 or make it viable again, this shit sucks.

[stray sphinx]

Fire being weak is crazy, just gotta learn how to use it

[crystal cave]

I know it’ll probably be hard but you guys should add a play of the game after every round. It would be super dope

[novel mauve]

meant the nades, I know fire is good with flamethrower

[daring fossil]

it does 40 damage on impact and has no lingering burn damage like the flame thrower, it's actually shit. The only good use it has is to clear gas, or throw it on someone stealing. It's not even good to pre-emptively stop a steal because you can steal from 5 feet away

[foggy ginkgo]

Please please please change the meta next season im so tired of seeing MMH. And Christ limit some of the specializations that can be utilized per team.

[latent bobcat]

I'd like to see a bow as a new weapon, maybe japanese themed longbow?

[silk vessel]

Unsure how many hours I put in since the start of the season but I finished the pass a few days ago. I play a few times a week.(I'm pretty shit though so it took me longer) There is an xp boost for end of season so if you've got time and don't have many of the circuit contracts finished I'm sure you can get pretty far. Plus if you like the cosmetic it's worth it.

I think Alterlaa from Vienna (Austria) would be a great map for The Finals. Just look at it:

Obviously not the whole Alterlaa would fit in the game. It is way to big

[iron saddle]

Let's talk about maps, I feel like this game is a sandbox game and we should double down on it.
Have some more environmental things implemented such as mud (which could slow players down that are walking in it.)
We could also add "Wind Gusts", it pushes players to a certain direction at a high speed. This could be implemented as an event?
For example when the event starts, every 20 seconds there will be a wind gust lasting for 5 seconds. This will add some randomness and chaos to the battles and make for some epic random/unexpected highlights.
Oil Slicks; Causes players to slip and fall (crouches sliding.) It can be ignited for fire damage when shot at with multiple rounds.

[daring fossil]

I love that the throwing knives got a buff, but like did you guys even test it? there's no reason to use the secondary fire now. I think the primary fire got overtuned and the secondary fire should have been sped up or something instead of the damage increase on the primary. the projectile speed is good though. you can primary someone in the head twice faster than you can secondary for basically the same damage. there's no reason to open a fight with a heavy with a secondary so you only need to hit them 2 more times, because you can just hit them 3 times with the primary in the same time or faster. The secondary should maybe be a long range precision throw with the slow ass wind up, and it should be that, but honestly it's impossible to hit anyone long range with them.

[rustic grail]

Do u know why your game is not going to be popular? Not only because of balancing, or gamemode. The main problem is performance issue. Back to open beta, my fps could go up to 80 with my 2060 laptop. Now it just gets worse and worse, even 40-60 fps is possible. While Apex can get a framerate up to 144 on my laptop. No wonder why nobody is playing this game anymore. This is the main issue That set back major audiences

[untold meadow]

Idea.... Melee cancel on sword... Why don't y'all just have it to where it only does it when you actually make the hit and it doesn't have the long reset because TBH IT DOES cost you your life! ITS TOO SLOW! With 150hp and die to literally EVERYTHING especially with close quarters combat weapon. I love the weapon but... Y'all keep on nerfing light... Like add another 5hp Everytime y'all nerf my guy. Coming from a 2x T500 player, the very few to hit it with just light. Come on guys get light back as a valid contestant for rank. Everyone just looks down on light.
P.s. it actually takes skill to use sword even with the melee cancel but if not to my idea? Than go ahead nerf my guy again... Boooooring

[rough herald]

its a cool idea intill you realize the map must only be in one building because shooting form balcony to balcony 50 meter away is boring

@lavish shard i was thinking we half everything (hear me out) tank, support, dps. it dosn't perfectly fit with the finals but in this example it good enough. if the tank have as much dps as the dps then why run light? we should have light damage more impactful by having heavy dps cut in half

(half might be a lil much tho)

[lavish shard]

Your right
Nerf rpg half dmg half cd
Lewis 25 to 23
Charge 130 to 100 and heavy is pretty good

[sudden summit]

Although this game has high playability and full of potential, it has all the problems that the FPS game can have.

1. managing issues
2. hack and cheat program issues
3. bad balance issues
4. low performance issues
5. less content issues

The game is only half a year old, and they have a long way to go.
My hope is that the game doesn't get service ended before these issues are resolved.

[swift skiff]

Yeah thats why they could just do 2-3 buildings + the big park and then it is a great map

[rustic grail]

The performance issue comes first. The second is cheater. Others wont matter that much. If they dont care about performance issue, this game will not get a proper amount of audience. They wont even try to enjoy the game even though the game is pleasant to play. Just because of performance issues, especially in Asia where many people dont have a relatively good hardware. They can play Apex, varolant or csgo. They dont ask much for hardware.

[simple parrot]

for variations of frag grenades there could be a sticky grenade and a halo plasma grenade skin would be cool, impact grenades , or a grenade that blows up into smaller grenades I feel like there's a name for that. flashbangs could also have a stun grenade variation like CoD. Pyro grenades could have a thermite variation where it burns through buildings.

Would it be possible to allow controller players to choose inputs when making controller binds? Like one could choose to hold a button, or double tap, or even combine two buttons in order to complete an action. Rather than the current system of only one button allowed for inputs, and inability to choose hold or tap

[plush fjord]

sorry mate. maybe its a prob with ur laptop. get a better one. no, no one cares if apex is better. we arent competing. its mates like u tryin to troll every1 on google and other reviews to get them to leave the game cuz u think it has potential of beating other games u like, and now ur here in the discord as well. and stop comparing it to apex and cod. the game is nothing like them. heck, its a virtual arena shooter. and if ur getting bad fps, do get a better laptop or just a ps5. we ps5 users dont have any of these probs. not even the laptop users do. and if the prob persists get a better internet device. balancing is fine. play alll the builds and ull auto understand how to counter each. see a flamethrower heavy? get some distance from him using ur speed and fire from the behind. see a sword light? set up a guardian turret or some mines. or get a cl40. see a mesh shield? use a sword and get behind the barrier. u rnt providing with any logical arguements

[mild gull]

A few ways I think the 93R could be buffed
Option 1

• Remove burst delay (this is how it works in real life)
• If burst delay is removed, slightly lower damage by -1 or whatever feels balanced enough to the devs (dps with no delay would be godly if damage per bullet was left as is)
• Slightly more range
• Larger mag size

Option 2

• Reduce burst delay
• Increase damage (but that would imply 2 bursting lights with body-shots only)
• Slightly more range
• Slightly larger mag size

I would prefer option 1 because it emphasizes trigger discipline and skill in controlling its recoil, rewarding players that manage to master its burst nature

[raven forge]

This throwing knife needs a nerf, ive topped my pr by 15 kills and 10k damage since this HUGE buff and it was the first time I’ve ever used them before😂😂

[stray rampart]

I like both ideas, leaning slightly towards #1

[charred geyser]

Can we put an end to the phantom forces crane campers, it's a boring way to play the game, it's a boring playstyle to fight.
Most of them get negative KD's anyway, when they do go positive they get put in better lobbies and get shit on anyway as they aren't actually improving.
It's like playing a point and click game, they might as well be watching a video of someone playing the finals, as it's not much of a difference effort wise.
It's extremely prevalent in power shift, 9 games in a row with players like this.

[silk cloud]

It's kind of ridiculous how accurate the AK is at range. I'm pretty fed up of using guns that are touted as "medium to long range" like the FAMAS and LH1 and having that range being contested by AK players. That recoil should bloom at range.

[civic walrus]

Been having an issue where on initial spawn I can’t pick anything up and have to die to fix it

[simple sail]

DEVS PLEASE READ!!!
I have a solution for a troubling issue for players in regards to the “Diamond skins” you get from reaching diamond, in ranked mode.

• As it stands we have weapons cycling through each seasons ranked, for its turn to have a “diamond skin” for that particular weapon. So eventually once all weapons have had there chance to be the diamond reward for each season, they all get put back into rotation for a second time.

But the issue with that is if a weapon you like has recently had its turn for the diamond skin reward in ranked, a new player would have to wait a long time for multiple seasons for another chance at that particular weapons diamond skin, which in turn could discourage players from playing.

• Now here is my “SOLUTION” to this problem we have.
  In exchange for one particular weapon being the diamond skin for a seasons ranked, we can have a “diamond skin 1 time use consumable” to apply to any weapon of our choosing.

This would still keep the theme of attaining 1 diamond skin per season, but also for the player to choose each weapon they would like to apply the skin towards.

While also keeping the “Date” you acquired the skin on the weapon itself. This is a cool feature i enjoy seeing what season i acquired that skin from.

Another bonus possible option would be to allow players to apply this consumable diamond skin to gadgets aswell!!!

Image barricades with a diamond skin!!! That would be pretty cool in my opinion.

This 1 time skin consumable use could also apply to the upcoming “RUBY” rank, if it works the same as out current diamond reward.

Also as a side note feature that i believe could be implemented in some way or fashion to use our “VR” currency that we basically cant use hardly anything for when we have unlocked all equipment in the game.

Is to have some kind of cool visual weapon upgrade system that requires VR, or giving us more options to change the base solid colors of clothing and weapons.

I myself have come across multiple pieces of clothing that i like the design of, but dreadfully hate the current color it has.

Please add a feature to let us change colors of clothing!

[tight dragon]

I feel like the game was way better / more fun when it was in Alpha / Closed beta playtests.
Not sure how many players there was, but I guess there was just as much as there is now 🤔
In my head the game was still "healthy" at 25-40K players (even if I saw too much time the same players' name), but now at around 10K... yep.

Not sure what happened. Do the dev team got dismantled towards the Open Beta or replaced by the marketing team ?

Some people warned me about Nexon, and I think they were right unfortunately.
NEXON is just next to TENCENT in my book now.

embark I read this I beleive there must be a change in the ranked system i like the placement matches feature but after that it is very weird the arrow indicator is not good fp could make a return but also we need the rank system to understand when my teamate leaves mid match we should not de rank and there must be a bigger penalty for ppl who leave during ranked games as it is very frustrating me after we qualify and the amount of times I have this happens all the time

some of yalls takes are prolly cause u suck ngl the game is fun so far even onna competitive level one thing i do agree on is limit roles i think its fair to have L 2 1 heavy pre team and one med

[tawdry tree]

It was the case, but it was waaay to broken, you could launch a canister in the air and travel through the map. I feel like nerfing that was a pretty good idea

[keen siren]

How does the grenade launcher do ZERO splash damage to the person using it? It's broken as hell. That makes no sense... Getting surrounded by a team, just shoot the ground.

[flint dock]

To expand upon my suggestions to make light more relevant and team oriented.

Let their grappling hook attach to vault, arena carriables and statues allowing to grab them to the light.

Give them the transform thingy as a gadget, that way they can zip in boom your defence bunker is a patio! High risk high reward.

Let the stun gun fuck up defib and short circuit turret.

Just cashout but 5v5 (like 3v3v3 or ranked final round)

5v5 QUICK CASH
~ Literally normal quick cash but 5v5 (1 cash box at a time; $10000 each / two stations / no kill $ award / no -30% $ team wipe penalty)
~ Limited respawn tokens
~ maybe?? --> Role Lock? (2 max per team OR no duplicate ability/spec/weapon?, unsure how to balance this. also if you do like this idea maybe follow the next seasons ranked rework?. or literally just keep it 5v5 and normal)

I'm colourblind, but my friend not and even him cant distinguish teams sometimes. I propose to make 4 colors every time for each team.

Your team: Light blue
For enemie teams: Orange, Pink-Magenta, Green

A difference in perceived brightness is the most important thing to make accessible colors, not only hue or saturation. That's why other games use blue and yellow.

PD: I know that there's colorblind mode, but that's not the point, because I cant communicate with my teammates if they ping "orange there!" but in my game that team is purple. I need the have the same colors as my teammates.

[iron solar]

i was using the finals Stats for a while, but when i went into a ranked match it kicked me for using the software so i uninstalled it, i really liked it tho as it gave way more info on my performance.

would love to see it supported more properly 🙂

[harsh torrent]

Bro hotfix those knifes plss 😭😭

[untold meadow]

Than back to apex or Xdefiant 🤘🏽

[rose stump]

My complaints about the game balance wise (don't worry, there a few that are not balance related such as server issues): "The meta is extremely unengaging"

1. Medium is too strong. Mines are annoying, especially on cash out where you can put them right infront of the OBJ and farm free kills/make the OBJ unaccessable.
2. Light is too weak and can get shutdown too easily. Also, please nerf throwing knives they are out DPS double barrel shotgun and are more consistent than tactical SMG.
3. Heavy is too "barrier reliant". Flamethrower meta is extremely strong NGL.

[mossy karma]

Apex is already full of cheaters so youll be fine there and xdefiant is boring and nowhere near The Finals

[wispy sand]

Again. Stop putting people back in the same match they just left, if this game isn't dead with crossplay on then putting me right back in the same match should never happen, this seems to be a more telling thing than any numbers released. So please, if not dead game why same match? <3 Never die only live. On a Saturday. Either dead game or fix code. Thank you have wonderful day. For one, it's a great way to switch classes which is 10000% not intended. So nerf instead of fix I guess? For two, potatoes.

[dense nimbus]

We need more skins, thats not enough

[hallow cargo]

Nerf throwing knives.. reduce AK47 ammo size from 36 to 30 ffs...

[regal sand]

It does?

[steel stone]

It should be doing damage to the person using it, I've killed myself a number of times doing it

[torpid sky]

No and No

[void orchid]

any idea what to do with my friends case?
after downloading the "small update" - Update-2.10.4 - He is able only to open the game and click 3 times (click anything, career, weapons, contestants - but 3 clicks only) - and then game crushed... -.-'

[keen siren]

Not from the last video clip I'm looking at posted in this very channel and most of the times when I fight teams with it. If it does, it doesnt' do a very good job at it. Seriously look at the clip posted just before my comment and tell me that it does by a fair amount. #👂┇game-feedback message

[dark depot]

THIS NEEDS FIXED NOW !!!!!!

When a player DCS OR RAGEQUITS from a RANKED ....STOP DEDUCTING ME 2 OR 3 STRIPES !!!!!!!!!

it's fkin ridiculous....this game is IMPOSSIBLE with just 2 players so I dont see why I should be penalised for a random arsehole spoiling the game ... this game has reconnect so genuine DCs are not included here.

Fix it so that they get a suspension and minus points but the remaining players don't lose anything.....ow and if we do win by some fkg miracle AWARD EXTRA FFS .....solo queuing is ridiculous

FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT FIX IT FFS !!!!!!!

[swift stream]

Either remove Low Gravity event or reduce how long it lasts

[whole acorn]

healing beam doesn't work in some games

[bleak coral]

all guns still better than throwing knives, buff again plz lol

[hidden idol]

The ranked system needs to take into account your performance not the cashbox nonsense. The gamemode itself is so bad for any competitive play as it has way to many elements that are out of your control. I've had several games where i get arrows down for literally being in the team that has to fight 3 teams at once over the course of the entire match, even if you drop 15kills and 10k damage it means nothing in this game, your skill is irrelevant to the game.

[fiery bobcat]

I think it would be amazing to have multiple stickers on a gun

[real crow]

It would be cool if we could react to messages here so we can all see if people think the ideas/criticisms are good or bad. an up/down arrow would be enough

[jade dragon]

[lament lodge]

💯

[dense tinsel]

Please fix the issue with the guns not firing!

I play often, and it's very frustrating to have the AKA with a full ammo and when I want to shoot, it aims but doesn't fire! It's as if I'm trying to shoot without bullets. It's very annoying to be in the middle of a game and have this happen so frequently.

The same goes for the incendiary grenade. I'm tired of it disappearing when I throw it. It never explodes, and it still gets used up, so you can't even throw it again.

Besides that, I don't know what happened, but lately my FPS has been fluctuating a lot. Yesterday it was performing very poorly, and this wasn't happening before.

Also, please add a "reconnect" feature. The game crashes frequently, and we need to be able to reconnect to a match

[glossy tartan]

i think it should have multiple vaults with lesser amounts of cash, but also the 30% team wipe penalty should be present
so you can go around to collect more and more cash while the cashout is in progress, making it a risk-reward on if you want to have more people to defend or have gatherers out

[calm geode]

why crashnig always? 😦

[rough lotus]

I downloaded the ps5 S.O Sleek skin bundle but when I opened the game on my ps5, the skins didn’t appear.

[brittle obsidian]

Cloak needs to be reworked to not be graphics setting/hardware dependent or replaced with something else.

[hard scarab]

Portal idea, This would be a light gadget that would be very similar to gateway just with its own added buffs but drawbacks. The portal maker would only be able to be placed on flat surfaces when right clicking youd create a Red portal and by left clicking and create a yellow portal by right clicking. While the portal is up you are able to view through both sides and shoot through the portal to attack opponents and they could do the same. While going through a portal you keep your momentum. Some of the drawbacks are that it has to be on a flat surface to be used, when running away if you place a portal the enemy can still fire at you and possibly kill you while you're trying to run through and even in your portal. Maybe a longer cooldown compared to gateway? Id imagine it would work where you start with 2 charges and when you use one of the charges it starts slowly filling back up.

[cyan pilot]

crisscross clash ak skin / jump pad skin / zip skin

[muted thunder]

Prop Hunt mode?

[graceful sequoia]

Let Light grab back the gateway if is not setup the second one please.

[cinder ridge]

Still have the no sprint bug on occasion. It rarely happens but the time it does seems to be in ranked games when I’m getting charged by a large pink bunny

[brave copper]

"Literally cashout but 5v5" proceeds to describe quick cash rules in entirety, not cashout

[surreal meadow]

right i usually play cashout forgot the name lol. quick cash would more proper yeah

[rough herald]

Heavy Health problem (won't be much of a problem if not the high dps)

doom 300 hp
shield 750 hp
barricade 1000~ hp
heavy himself 350 hp

Too kill a heavy throw all his defenses you need to do... oh god. 2,400 Damage
(im not including goo because barely anyone use it, can't say the same for heals)
. even for M60, a gun known for it high total damage per mag will take it a 1 mag and a half which is 15~ second plus reload

@queen cloud enlighten me
i... actually agree

fck the skill issue part tho lol

[high wing]

Reconnected to a game after the game caused my entire PC to crash, we qualified but I was sent to main menu and not the next round like the rest of the team. I did not get any rankup or anything and next round was final round'

[queen cloud]

skill issue
Only problem heavy has is dps way too high for his hp/abilities. RPG+lmg out dpses any other class

Heavy's shields/domes/hp are not the problem. RPG + main gun dps are

[light tinsel]

PLEASE ADD THE ABILITY TO CHANGE THE DASH EFFECT OF THE DASH SPECIALIZATION TO DIFFERENT COLORS OR ICONS (I.E EMOJIS)

[hidden idol]

Having to carry 2 useless lights doing nothing all game, winning 1 map due to heavylifting of doom, loosing next map because the boosted light players cannot get above 1k damage or any kills, yes stuck at 0 kills, clearly means I need to be severely punished with 2 arrows down. This SBMM is getting ridicolous.

And for those who think that this is low lobby, it's diamond boys.

Imagine if I could block these people and not having to play with them

[graceful sequoia]

And thats only 1 Heavy, now add another one, and a medium healing them. And try to do something as a Light 😂

[eternal warren]

Not even the throwing knives buff is helping lights I see

[ornate idol]

I have 640 hours in this game and can say that between throwing knives and aps you've destroyed it. The casual modes are absolute garbage with so many throwing knives flying around and the APS should just be removed rather than bothering to pretend there is any point at all to medium aside from healing and defibs. This game was great and you effed it up. 👎

[next flax]

We used to be able to 😭

[tawdry mesa]

Please bring FSR3 support to consoles 🙏

[real crow]

sometimes i feel bad about myself, but then i come here and see the shit some of yall ask for

[latent meteor]

why?

[rose verge]

throwing knifes are so overpowered it takes no skill and insta kills any class who made this decision what a damn joke

[brittle obsidian]

Projectile weapon takes no skill. I think we found quick cash's strongest warrior

[upper citrus]

REAL

[gusty wagon]

sword emote cancelling still not fixed eh? how long's it been

[idle thistle]

very unbiased take

[prime wing]

just loaded into a game with 4 light snipers LMAO

why in the world would you ppl buff throwing knives

[kind coral]

Embark needs to post their music somewhere.

[toxic shadow]

https://open.spotify.com/artist/0iChYVsdfuGmWIUuhDE4M8?si=b4kCij7FQK6fq9bBlSQGDw

[oblique kite]

PLEASE add kbm support for console!
U just cant play things like sword or dagger on controller, which really makes ur experience worse!

[quick coyote]

the new leaked music is beautiful

[slim totem]

Throwing knives are too powerful🗣️🔥🔥

[dusk forge]

get to the final round with only one teammate in the team from match one, loose closely, get ranked down...fu

[wide void]

Remember, just because Throwing Knives are popular doesn't inherently mean they're overpowered. A lot of people are trying them out just because they got buffed.

That being said, if you feel the TTKs are too low, they allow too much mobility, they have too much range, etc. compared to the other weapons, those may be valid and useful criticisms. Just STOP complaining they're overpowered without explaining WHY.

[young smelt]

You don’t rank down if you make it to the final round. You probably misunderstand the ranking system.

[solemn burrow]

day 2 of asking: cockroach pet when?

[rough herald]

ded bhop

[valid salmon]

reason :
the trowing knifes have almost the same time to kill as the M11 the difference is that with the M11 you need to hit the entire mag (40 bullets) to kill a heavy and the trowing knifes need only 5-6 knifes to hit, also there is no reload + you can trow 2 knifes, dash/stun, trow the next 2 dash/stun grapple etc (:

[queen light]

season 1 song pls

[real crow]

11vs11 payload gamemode would go hard

[stray rampart]

I have been experiencing this too. Sometimes it does work sometimes it doesn't, which led me to believe it's not intended!

Either way, this needs to be fixed SOON™

[unique wasp]

It'd be nice to have carriable bombs back. Not asking for an instagib tool like nukes, but it was fun to be able to make airburst explosives out of canisters and I regularly miss it when I'm running breaching charge or C4. Shooting or relying on the canister itself detonating either isn't as reliable or doesn't have the same fun factor to it.

[slim totem]

This is a good point, but I think the attack speed is still a bit too fast, maybe need to see other feedback
I also agree with what you said, there are indeed many people who try to use throwing knives because of its enhancement.If you look at things from different angles, you will have different ideas.The combination of C4 and a gas tank is a similar example. Although C4 is attached to a flower pot in the game promotional video, this is also weakened, right?

In fact, the damage caused by throwing knife is not low,sometimes heavy die quickly,You only need a stun gun and sprint to cause high damage, and you don't even need to reload time.so I'm just giving my thoughts.💀

In summary, I also play throwing knives occasionally, and maybe there is some room for modification.
Thirty minutes of cooling down was too long, so I had to edit it

[cyan pilot]

please fix the phantom wipes in the UI. top left UI will show teams as wiped that are alive

[abstract rapids]

as someone who's been using throwing knives consistently for the previous month, this buff was badly needed. the fire rate was bad and the delay combined with its accuracy made it even worse, along with the fact heavys could just obliterate you before your second shot.

the fire rate and damage boost finally made it viable and actually fun to use.

[fossil onyx]

Anyone else seeing zip lines that aren’t actually there? Doesn’t happen often but it’s got me lookin like I’m throwin out here 🤦🏻‍♂️

[wide void]

@valid salmon @slim totem Thank you for explaining further. To be quite honest, I haven't even gotten to play with the new changes. I just wanted to stir you to be more detailed :^)

[void scarab]

please make it so that you can 'kick' barrels over and stuff...
i keep getting stuck on them whilst backpaddling for example..
I'm a heavy who can literally run through walls but this 1 smoke cannister, pff idk man, size 48 shoe is not strong enough to kick a can...
basically what i'm trying to say is, don't glue them to the floor until interaction, when you walk against them, let them tip over

[mossy cape]

nonstop crash on startup after the latest hotfix

[last swift]

Add a report feature for gamethrowing or something. I’m tired of people just running around away from objectives or heavy’s that spend the entire game breaking buildings

[fading ivy]

That's right, brother.

[neon musk]

So much this

[plain shard]

When you put in a cash box in the cashout, a tune plays, would be cool if you could unlock other tunes, and those tunes would play per player, so everyone can hear who put in the box if they have other tunes selected

[ornate panther]

Can we get one more hotfix to fix the GeForce now error 🥹. Plz

[cyan pilot]

Rebuff stungun, let it cancel abilities and slow but you can still ADS.
Please don't revert throwing knives, they're only dominant in casual because people cannot aim.
Role queues limiting teams to HML would be good for ranked, or even just limit to one heavy. Double heavy is ruining the game
Nerf charge and slam damage and or cooldown its in an insane spot rn

Add Solo Rank Matchmaking!!

game crashes then "You do not have any debugging symbols required to display the callstack for this crash."

[dusk forge]

alone in team from second one, why? dont know, awesome matchmaking, ranked game btw...i manage to get to round 2 alone, i leave 2 full teams behind me and advance, round 2, people are not braindead and i finish 4th. 3 arrows down indicate i should have done more or was "my performance too poor" so i get arrows down? I have to get to the final round at least ALONE in my team? lmao, so unfair...makes me hate the people from Embark somehow...
I think for leaving 6 plat players behind me n one round should make me advance so much in my ranking, not rank down my friends? You get my logic?

[bitter tangle]

Can we please get a performance mode?

[tawdry mesa]

It will bring much higher FPS than the current 60 limit.

Check DF:

https://youtu.be/xVCK1j7F5sg?si=k9vmIxPJsjs4kH3T

fsr3 would at most boost it to 90

i dont think you can have frame gen on console but im not sure

[paper stream]

Nah, Embark likes to see us solos suffering.

[rough herald]

so much lag spike

[midnight dock]

I think assists should be shown in the career statistics page along with kills, deaths and revives

[stray rampart]

Please look into the performance. The game feels really choppy and getting a lot of lag spikes and hit registration issues

[merry holly]

Is the spawning 100m+ away from a cashout that ends in 20 seconds ever going to be addressed? or is that just a new "feature"

[exotic sandal]

😁🤣 tgis is where things start to get real fuccey

[sinful gazelle]

Facts 💯

I been playing the game since middle way of season 1 and noticed that performance and optimization never feel good at all, I go to other games like: valorant, cago, Xdefiant, and etc.. they all feel smooth and good. Not a ton of lag spikes or hit registration (XD yes there is so far)

Yes this game has a lot more things going around like destruction and a big map. But gameplay just feels so choppy. And if the core gameplay of it feels bad, then it will makes player not really wanna play imo even though you guys are great at adding content like lore and music and such things.

That’s why why I slowly been playing Xdefiant over The Finals since the gameplay feels so much smoother and the gunplay is amazing.

You have to work on a performance, the core gameplay, the fundamentals before you get into the spicy content.

Focus on making the gameplay better for at least a month, we shouldn’t not be having performance issue when we are abt to get into S3 of the finals.

🙏 plz actually make a effort in trying to make the core gameplay better

The Finals is a unique game and I want it to last long and thrived

[high wing]

WTF did they do this patch, game has crashed my entire PC four times in just a few hours

[untold hazel]

make it soo like if there like a team of 3 the same characters they have to choose different weapons and not the same because lika whole team whit heavys having grenade launcher i unplayable against

[fair bolt]

what are your specs?

[slow sparrow]

Hot take keep the aoe damage on yhe melee weapons it makes them feel way better to use if you have good timeing and skill with it and its not an exploit like phantom striking which NEEDS to be fixed also bring back looking around when reviving /cashing out it was a great quality of life change also can we get icons letting us know which platforms others are on aka pc player seeing that their team is on xbox and plastation or plastation and xbox seeing that their team is on pc or the other

[jade finch]

i want to mix and match glasses with mask. don't NEED it would just like it

[stray rampart]

Same, I want more emphasis on performance and bug fixes

[earnest gust]

Has the embark team thought about adding a gas based weapon and implement a gas mask as a gadget?

[gritty owl]

I keep getting disconnected for "illegal tools detected..." since a few updates

[supple hull]

add bow + crossbow

[astral dust]

i got -3 in ranked with plat teammates and we got through the first round. delete the git repository

[red knot]

PLEAAAAAASE fix the random PC crashing issue, I can't take this anymore!

[oblique oyster]

Im 1-2 Games away from D4 and now i queued a game and one guy never connected. Because we couldnt progress to 2nd stage as a team of 2, we got "<<< -3 " . Thats one of the most bs scenario i ever had. I should be allowed to leave without consequences >if he never conneccted in the first place<< (or at least only punish the guy, but not me for being put in this unfair situation)

[agile ivy]

ran into him and he lost. reported

[patent girder]

I agree 100% that losing a teammate should prevent us from going down. I also want to throw it out there because it might be helpful for anyone that reads this; I had one ranked match where we started with 2 and my teamate left which left me alone, and instead of leaving I basically roamed the map killing people that had just respawned alone and weren’t expecting me. I ended up getting 5 kills and one death before the match ended and to my surprise even though I got last place I didn’t go up or down at all. My arrows didn’t change. If you read this, next time you get screwed without teammates in ranked, try to farm kills and get a nice KD… who knows it might save you.

[stoic fox]

never agreed with a feedback post more

[candid flower]

Not sure if this is just a playstation thing but everytime i go to my emotes it resets my intros on all builds plz fix 👍

[viral mountain]

holy shit the knives are overbuffed, would like an immediate patch that just nerfs the knives only, it's too powerful on its own let alone when stacked(which is 80% of my match ups rn)

[foggy ginkgo]

The meta is so depressing. And @viral mountain @warm mauve not overbuffed at all. You can still sht on lights. Use ur movement. Knives are still very much a skill based weapon

[warm mauve]

yup, TK are busted and still have SBMM in the game. Gonna stick with Xdefiant. Have lost all interest in the game after 2.10

[floral plover]

HELLO BLUDS!! ospuze flavoured ice lolly !!! (Sword skin)

[misty walrus]

Embark gadget swapping as with any weapon in your game feels fast, great, and responsive. Especially when it’s comes to melee and melee weapons. With all weapons and the entire game , it’s call skill expression to allow this fast and responsive gameplay to stick around. Most Especially for the sword. Getting rid of gadget swapping for the sword would be cutting off this amazing sort of skill expression for players to experience. I’m so grateful for you and your team for adding the sword in the game in the first place. And for it to be viable in comp if used with this type of skill expression is amazing. Cutting it off would be losing so many players hopes of ever wanting to try to reach those ranks again. So please embark, don’t change this part of fast paced expression.

[shy swan]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE FIX

• mouse controls are not smooth. settings aren't exact numbers like in other games like csgo siege and apex have. im no game designer but if other games can do it right im sure thats a helpful reference. this frustration has made enjoying the game hard and to maybe show its not just me, shroud said on stream he thinks the same thing bout the controls along with others you find just googling "the finals mouse and keyboard feels bad".
• add option for tapping jump again in mid air you mantel. not jumping once makes you mantel. constant unintentional mantling happens when playing this game.
  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[eager root]

Hello
any news on implementing the "purchase single item" to the older bundles?

[willow leaf]

Oh wow you put on your big boy pants and actually came up with reasoning for your disagreements.

Of course I still disagree.

Rpg would not be useless at all. It would mainly be a destruction tool rather than a attack weapon which is better. It may not be used by every single player but that’s good.

Mesh shield is extremely annoying right now because a heavy can get hit for 95% of their health and then instantly pull the shield out to not die. It’s a get out of jail free card and is extremely annoying to deal with. A delay would stop this and require you to plan the best way to use the shield instead of it just being a reflex when you’re losing a gunfight.

I would like if you could explain why you think the healing beam is so good because I think it is the most boring and annoying part of the game.

For the manual turret it of course would work like every other turret in gaming where it deals more damage than normal guns and has more bullets. It would also be awesome if it could destroy buildings if they get shot enough like the heavy shotgun. Also a hitscan ai should not be in a PvP game.

I would be fine with reverting the cloak nerf if they added having to manually turn off the cloak before shooting. You shouldn’t be able to start shooting while still invisible. Or they should rework it entirely to be an ambush ability instead of what it is currently where people just run around invisible.

How exactly would a stun turret be bad? You would just need to avoid it or destroy it or glitch it. And it would give light a defensive tool which it needs more of. It would be better than the current or old stun gun.

Instant revive will never be useless. I don’t know how you could think that. This change would just stop people from reviving people in the middle of a fight and require people to think about where to revive someone so it doesn’t get cancelled. Defibs are still extremely strong.

[hidden idol]

If you play light and are diamond, instant derank back to silver, best feature to get boosted players out of diamond.

[vestal basin]

1. Take the cheating problem seriously

The cheating issue will always exist, no matter how much the anti cheat updated, the cheat software producer will just make another one to bypass

Seriously, embark. Look at pubg,apex, you know what happened to them, be honest with yourself, look at the statistic data about cheaters, it will show 90% of them are from china. Just restrict them in **china's **server, 90% issue will be solved, and you can still earn china's money

• 90% China players can't play an online game without cheating, this was proved by the history, sad but true

The finals is not big enough like pubg and apex, if you dont do something, it will eventually kill the game

2. Bugs that never fixed, makes the game completely uncompetitive, world wide FPS game tournament will be impossible, thus game will eventually die

• Can't shoot, sprint, press e, use abilities by chances (Happens at least once per 3 hour)

[sand timber]

Ive got a cool suggestion: Make a tiny halftime show with in game recaps. Have scotty and June "examine" the recaps and show highlights.

[jagged moat]

Not sure if it is interesting but are you able to make kill effects? Similar to halo infinite or other games

[soft bramble]

this sentence makes no grammatical sense what the fuck does this mean

[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)
• Increase damage from 84 to 90
• 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)

FIX THE FOV WHEN HOLDING THE SHIELD UP:

• 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)

HOLDING THE DAGGER BACKSTAB:

• Make it so you can hold the backstab and it's not a forced animation, revert it like it was in the Open Beta

GIVE SMOKE GRENADES TO ALL CLASSES:

• 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

[plush solstice]

I think this is still the only game where I have to SEARCH for a game to play solo in the practice range
