Fool proof solution:
Terminal Attack
• Remove TA ranked
• Keep TA as a casual game mode
• Remove the forced 5 games of TA
Cashout
• Increase the cash reward for killing a player in cashout from $200 to $1,000
• Put Cashout back as Ranked.
• Have World Tour be all game modes (one per week)

Increasing the kill reward in Cashout would mean that people could play it as a tdm OR Cashout that we know.
I think this would also decrease the amount of 3rd partying because there would be less of an incentive to go for the cashout.
A team that wants to go for cashouts will have a very defensive build and would be hard for the TDM offensive build to push.
But people would still try and get the cashouts because they would be a free $10k, $15k or $22k.

This would also make HHM less oppressive because it's a defensive comp based around holding an objective.

ANOTHER FREE IDEAā€¼ļø

Asset flip Sys Horizon & Kyoto:

Both of those maps have been effected by CNS, now it's time to show us what both of those maps should have been.
A modern Kyoto
&
A fully loaded Sys Horizon (whatever the real name will be)

Instead of having to make a map from scratch we can asset flip those ones and give us one ((or both)) either in a mid season patch or for a new season.

Yes some of the fans won't like that, but I imagine that would allow for some time to pour some more resources and manpower into other aspects of the game for a while.

Thank you for your consideration šŸš€

The game needs a much more in depth tutorial for situations that people will face. I see some people stare cross eye'd at a wall in tougher situations not knowing what to do for the most basic of stuff. Could also add incentive for completing more advanced tutorials like skins or multibucks.

IF you reload, and heavy winches you, your gun gets stuck, can't reload, or shoot, happened to me twice with ak now. Also, nerf knives, and LH1, remove sniper = better game (sorry Lights, nothing personal).

storm siren
#

a youtuber made a really good point on how to fix cashout.
Reward players more money around 1-5k per kill while defending and maybe even attacking a cashout,
so even if they get 3rd partied they have still been rewarded through defense kills while holding a cashout.

A annoying part is holding a cashout killing off 2 even 3 teams and come and get 3rd partied last second and lose and you got nothing for defending the whole time and the work went into holding for a team to come thru last second and get all the reward.

Reward defending a point by adding the value of cash you get for kills so that it is a significance. ($100 per kill means nothing)
This will make some players think twice on pushing a team for the risk of giving them money if they lose the fight.
will incintivse strategy when pushing and more team focus.

5 TA matches for new players is by far the worst decision embark has ever made.

Like imagine you only heard about the finals now, so you see a bunch of really hype fast paced trailers and gameplay and clips of people doing cool shit in the game

Then you install it and you get forced into a mode where you have to wait ages before you actually get to play, then you run in and probably get one shot by a light or some shit

You have one class unlocked, can't change any of your gear, and you get to play for like a minute once every 3-ish minutes

And if someone leaves, the match gets cancelled.

Stupid awful decision, guys. It's a nice mode, but pushing it onto new players? I'd just quit immediately.

the state of the game is trash. unplayable. not even talking about TA, jut the buffs to the light are crazy. not fun to play

So, going from 20,000 players to 30,000 players is a +50% increase in player count.

It's a long way from the initial peak and I want this game to succeed so bad. We're going in the right direction. Marketing wise & content wise.

The only other thing I really want you guys to do is FUCK UP THE META

I repeat: RUIN THE STATE OF NORMAL in this game every three months.

Drop new overpowered weapons at the beginning of each season and balance them mid season.

Apart of the interest day one fans had was how interesting the gameplay was & the new wepons they had to form play styles around.

I'll give the developers some grace because it seems like counterplay, strategy, & gameplay loop seem to be a big part of things here.

But for an early game maybe we just need more people in the arena first testing out the tools & weapons then we refine stuff.

I'm looking at the charts (I'm sure they don't have all of the information)

But when we get back above 40,000 the game will blow up.

Thanks for your consideration šŸš€

Make customization based on load outs and outfits, not contestants. So when you load into a game, you pick a build, load out, and outfit, or use your normal one that you set. Infinite load out and outfit slots, and you can create custom outfits or use the ones you can buy in the store as is. Either that, or just give infinite contestant slots I don't see a reason for them to be limited, esp with the influx of new toys

why won't you enable private tournaments embark, half of the reason why large streamers won't play your game is because it's supposed to be a tournament and they can't host their own tournaments in game, instead they have to set it up themselves only using cashout or quick cash
@astral dust friendly reminder that 2/3rds of Embark's talent are busy doing arc raiders
@gray linden World Tour definitely plays more seriously than og casual tourneys because people do want to get the multibucks but still people don't take it as seriously as they took ranked tournament. It plays like a softer ranked

Some Feedback:

Light:

  • Revive Speed: Buff revive speed. I've been asking for this for a long time now. Making it 1 second shorter would increase their team viability immensely. Heavies can barricade/bubble in place to revive, and mediums use their magic cables, while lights need to run a marathon to find a safe space to avoid a random one-shot.

  • BOW: Very nice, not too strong. Maybe should have very slight inaccuracies mid-air like throwing knives.

  • BUG: Bow is visible during revive, obscuring vision.

  • 3rd Person Bow Walk Animation: Very weird and could use some tweaks.

  • Sonar Grenade: Needs a nerf to the detection range.

  • LH1: Too strong in every way possible, needs nerfs, especially for terminal attack.

  • Thermal Bore: Should have area damage, collision/passthrough with enemy players, and deal around 40 damage. Also, it should have a 10-20% larger explosion.

Medium:

  • Dual Blades: Underwhelmingly weak. Needs damage buffs to primary attack and give medium a slight move speed buff. You cannot chase other mediums as you are the same speed. Maybe a 3-7% faster running speed to compensate for having no dash or invis cloak.

Heavy:

  • Claw: Should have a better visual for when you get hooked. Soft red borders/hooked display to clearly showcase lost control.
  • Claw needs slight nerfs to when what side of the grappled person can move and stun duration, etc.

Kyoto:
No complaints. Love the map and aesthetics. Was hoping for a 2200 version, aka hyperfuturistic Kyoto (even though Syshorizon covers that). Otherwise, super.

Events:

  • Low Gravity Event: Lasts too long and happens WAY too often in the last minutes of the match, making the game unplayable as melee. Getting beamed when you jump once.

Killfeed:

  • Should display enemy kills and cause of deaths. I often get 3rd-partied and want to know which team did it.

Team Damage:

  • I've been dying to team damage way too often recently as a sword player, dying to my team's gas and fire. Give friendly hazards a slightly longer damage time to begin. For example, make us cough more often or similar so we take less team damage.

Grenade Indicator:

  • Add a grenade indicator. Grenades are fine; I am okay with eating a whole grenade here and there, but sometimes you just don’t hear them in all the chaos. I want to see where they are roughly.

Miscellaneous:

  • Lobby Music Selection Options: When?
  • Skins for Gadgets and Items: Can we get some skins for gadgets and items that don’t have any yet? (Looking at Gateway [Portal gun you throw?], Pyro [Molotov], and Stun Gun [barcode scanner skin]).

Platinum 4+ remove Individual Performance. A prime example is VALORANT removing it too because a role like Cypher solo holding would always gain less elo compared to Jett, which is the same issue this new ranked system has too. Right now we have to wipe a team except 1, wait for them to key, then share the defuse with whoever isn't fragging as much because of their build/role. Having to elo max is not good gameplay, base it on opposition's elo and rounds win/loss only.

#

Embark you need to remove builds to be able to balance this game, specifically for ranked. Just make everyone medium with 250hp but you can select any gadget or specialization, that way you can balance and tune guns and equipment without it having a knock on effect because of the unique build differences such as HP and Speed. There is no class specific skins or anything so I don't see how this would be a problem. If any metas formed due to the specializations from heavy or light being on medium, you would have the opportunity to balance them accordingly and bring variety to builds.

The silver-lining of this for now is that I will have less of my free-time taken up by The Finals so I can play other games on my backlog.

acoustic storm
#

I really don't get why people are arguing so much about light being too weak or too strong.
Light is pretty damn strong, but people are just bad.

First of all cudos to Embark, light is by far the most fun and engaging class to play as. A very large loadout. A lot of fun and different weapons. And the specializations all have their place. (Allthough the grappling hook is kinda weird)

The Problem with light is not that some weapons are busted (bow, knives, LH1, Sword), it is that light is just extremely unfun and "unfair" to play against.

If you kill a light you do so because the player was bad, was forced to enter a bad position, you were using some cheese like the RPG or you got the drop on them.
And that is the point of the light class. Light is not supposed to fight fair and square battles in an open field. Light is designed to get picks from unsuspecting opponents.

Thats also the reason why most light players suck. They don't get that they can't just run into a full team and expect to survive. And yet here are people complaining that light needs more HP.
For those people that play/have played League of Legends. Asking for that is the same as wanting assassins to build bruiser/tank items and still wipe whole teams. Laughs in tank ekko.

No one wants tanky assassins. If you die to an assassin it is completely your fault, you were out of position or the enemy was just better. Complaining about it won't make you better.

On the other hand I don't get why light is receiving so many buffs to its weapons. Light already has by far the most utility heavy and strongest gadgets.

  • Enemy team is camping and healing? Throw a glitch grenade.
  • Enemy has abilities which could be a hindrance? Throw a glitch grenade.
  • Want to flank the enemy? Get invisible or use your outstanding mobility.
  • Get caught off guard? Just get away with your mobility.
    If one doesn't use their toolkit, they shouldn't complain.

Yes, Light is in a difficult spot in high elo( Cashout, not TA). But the Problem imo is that HMM HHM is just way easier to pull off. The margin for error on light in high elo is just really thin. And this gets even harder with the existence of the RPG.
On that note, the RPG is just really stupid in its damage concept. I get that it will always deal a minimum amount of damage, so that it has some form of consistency. But this is just unfair. The RPG has a huge explosion radius, if you get somewhat hit by that as light, which you always will, even with dash, you will loose >50% of your hp, even tho you reacted in time. If you get hit with it in the face, you deserve it, since you were out of position.
Just remove the minimum damage, this will also be a QOL buff for the heavy since the self damage on an explosion 5m away will be much less. ATM this will basically kill you, approx 200 Damage at the edge of the explosion.

Lights got no nerfs other than a longer cooldown for breach charge.

Then made the health regen faster than everyone elses even when they have the smallest health pool to regen? What is going on embark. Heavy gets a ton of nerfs other than pumping a shotgun faster and a sledgehammer animation? YOU NERF THE DAMAGE OF HEAVY'S TWO MAIN WEAPONS??? Are we trying to brick heavies from playing and turn them into shields forced to use RPG for every kill? What. is. going. on. Even the new winch has already been nerfed. I dont even care for it man.

Whatever nerf they did to the Throwing knives, it sure didn't fix the main issue wich is, its dealing way too much damage and you can just hold mouse 1 and win...
Before anyone comments on it, Yes, I did a run just to confirm that I wasnt being salty, the amount of times I should've lost but somehow won was speaking for itself.

You have the advantage of never having to reload, You can legit just wait for the moment they gotta and immediately fuck them over. Perhaps Embark's biggest issue is that they don't know how to balance Lights well and instead of giving the class survivability, they resort to giving them busted damage Lmao

M11 falls behind the SH1900, the V9S and the LH1 in terms of sheer TTK.

It's supposedly the melter weapon. High recoil, lacking a lot of range. Needs a damage per bullet buff (by 1 only) or a fire rate buff.

It's good to see light gets its compensations (although LH1 is the one that is currently overkill. I dominated with LH1 in world tour and ranked terminal), but be ready to put the light weapons on the same page with each other, in its respected strengths and weaknesses.

  • Bring back Ranked Tournament
  • Revert the LH1 damage buff. It was already a broken weapon, and you now you guys made it kill faster than SMGs!
  • Revert the 93R fire rate nerf. Its range buff is not enough to compensate for the fact that it kills way too slowly. The new damage dropoff modifier still makes it worse than an LH1 or XP-54

Something tells me that appealing to casual players on PC don't really mix.

I think if you want to get a larger market you need to appeal to players who are on console.

This may be a hunch and I may not know what the hell I'm talking about but it just kind of makes more sense.
Personal computers cost more money than consoles.

I'm also saying this because there seems to be less console players on than PC players.

Maybe we can do some directed marketing to console players and get more casuals on since you guys have been trying to appeal to casual players this season with the terminal attack change.

Rpg should do 30-50 damage but you will get two rockets along with being able to rocket jump. This will come at a cost of some health to the heavy but it gives heavy some needed mobility along with making the rpg less annoying to play against.

My Personal Opinion on Season 3 So Far

Pros

  • Stunning New Map
    The new map is truly beautiful. It stands out as one of the best and most incredible maps I've seen in my entire gaming career.

  • Enhanced Viewer Interaction
    The interaction with the "Viewer" is a fantastic addition. Hearing them cheer us on when we get a kill significantly enhances the game's ambiance. This is definitely the direction the game should be heading. We need more!

  • Innovative New Weapons and Gadgets
    The new weapons introduced are really cool, and the new gadget is incredibly useful. They bring fresh dynamics to the gameplay. The dual blades, feels designed for light, might need a buff to be more effective.

  • Exceptional Battle Pass
    This season's battle pass is simply the best since the closed beta..

  • Culturally Rich Skins
    The skins this season are a love letter to Japanese culture. They are well-designed, thoughtfully chosen, and fit perfectly into the game.

  • Circuits
    Great as always, the circuits help in retaining the community and keeping engagement high.

  • Captivating Soundtrack
    The soundtrack is as good as ever. I hope we get a jukebox feature soon!

Cons

  • Ranked Terminal Attack
    This one is a bit obvious. While it's great to have new game modes, having two modes to farm might be too much. Locking ranked rewards behind Terminal Attack isn't ideal. Personally, I don't play Terminal Attack because it's a slower game mode and doesn't fit what I want from the finals. It's a nice addition, but maybe it shouldn't be included in such an important mode like ranked.

  • Balances
    The current weapon balance isn't the worst, but the LH1 is way too powerful now, and the throwing knife does too much damage. Everything else is fine and can be countered, but these two changes aren't good in my opinion. Heavy have still too much HP or damage power. They should be more protecting than attacking.

  • Poor Matchmaking
    This is the most frustrating point. It's not acceptable to have such a disparity in player performance, like someone with 500 damage paired with someone having 6000 damage in the final round of World Tour. This is frustrating for both new and experienced players. While I don't expect pro-level matches, a minimum level of balance would be appreciated.

  • Bugs
    There are small bugs present, but none are game-breaking.

BTW Please add BEARD Option !!

i personally don't mind ta, but they should put cashout back in ranked and move ta to world tour so everyone is happy

From every ranked game ive played in the last couple days, theres always atleast 3 lights on the other team, while one would think its no issue it really is, theres always a sniper that either one tap headshots or tanks your health to nothing, I understand, thats like the whole premise on light sniper, its just unfair to have to fight that from over 180M away, maybe just disable it for TA? but idk, seems unfair to me, Bow is fine, Throwing knives is just impossible to fight as a medium or a light unless you get the first hit, but typically their running dash, which is just extremely difficult to fight

Things to consider are, in the event of a tie, playing two rounds so that each team can attack and defend. after additional 6 rounds (3 defense, 3 attack) in the absence of a result, automatic draw??

But unfortunately I have to play with the LH1.

Do we see the issue here? Launch new weapons in an over powered state and then people will automatically view the new weapons as a more positive impact in the game.

Rebalance them during the season but drop them strong af.

We have been using the goddamn Fcar and AK for a year now. The throwing knives are old.

Everyone always cries for a nerf on a weapon they can't use well and die to often, and they want a buff to the weapons they use since they can't get kills with it. The common denominator is you. Play better. Position better, Aim better. Work with your team better.

93r is still not good, probably lights worst gun. what we need for this weapon to make it feel good is better hipfire. we dont want to ADS this thing that often, we want to hipfire it! same goes for v9s make those pistols shine in hipfire and dont make us rely so much on ads

POWER SHIFT SHOULD BE THE MODE THAT NEWBIE EXPERIENCE FIRST

TA is easier to understand than cashout.

But won’t powershift also fit the same description while being infinitely more forgiving?
TA. If the newbie bot W key to the open he’s dead and all he will get to do is spectate. Who gonna have fun and stay with the game like that? FOR FIVE ROUND NO LESS.

Mean while, powershift. Not only have infinite respawn, health regen. Defiv, healing beam
And guess what
CHANGE CHARACTERS/ LOADOUT ANYTIME!!
(I know newbie won’t have much to change to but changing from light to heavy is still something)

Oh and 1 more added benefits of power-shift
You get to sold the best element of the final: the destruction
Without even needing the newbie to destroy stuff himself (cause all he need is just to stand in the payload which let me repeat.
Is a super just as easy to understand game mode cause we been having push the payload for 2 decades)

Please, please bring back Ranked Tournament. Have played about 30 games of Terminal Attack and it's just too boring, and less strategic than Cashout. There's way less team-play and it's mostly just a shootout TDM, because it's nearly pointless to do the objective. Also it seems the mode is only 5x Lights, because why would you pick anything else, if losing hp while going to a point only regenerates to 100. If you get damaged as a medium or heavy, being at 100hp you will lose every 1v1 Vs an equally skilled light every time because of the higher damage output. Plus it's just a spam of 5x Sonar and you see everyone all the time. It's just too boring and slow. I have no excitement or joy playing it. I have 800 hours in the game and am seriously considering quitting, because there is no point playing the casual World Tour with badges. This season's was looking so good. The twitch drops, Twitch Rivals sponsorship, insane new map, great new weapons. But you had to ruin it with the Terminal Attack rank mode. I understand that you wanted to fix the unfair flights when third partying, but you can do something to disincentivize people from third parties to make it more fair/competitive. Overall really disappointed with the TA Rank decision and will stop for the foreseeable future. Hopefully you switch the rank mode back to Cashout, otherwise see you next season when you bring it back!

y'all gotta fix this auto-match cancelling thing, i play casual terminal attack with a 5-stack of my brothers and your game crashes like 1/3 of the times when 1 particular brother starts loading the map. and even though he's always reconnecting before the match even starts, you cancel the match and give him an (increasing) penalty. why?? he's not quitting the match, he's just crashing. we're the only team handicapped by his crashes and we're all fine with it. so now we gotta play power shift for 30 minutes

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD:
Here are a few ways that can improve the shield, as it underperforms against any other ranged and melee weapon. 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)
  • The shield should block a larger area of the body to make it more consistent at blocking melee, bullets, and splash damage. Players with decent aim can easily hit the arms and legs which defeats the whole purpose of it.
  • Blocking melee attacks should inflict a knockback to prevent melee weapons from clipping through and scoring a second hit with the active frames.
  • Increase the melee range, even just +1m of range would make it feel so much better to catch enemies that were just outside your range before.
  • Electrify the baton and allow it to glitch enemies for a very short period, it would provide a lot of team utility and prevent dash lights and charge and slam heavies from effortlessly hard countering shielders

FIX THE RIOT SHIELD BUGS:

  • When picking up throwables in the arena, the first person shield model gets messed up and blocks your entire screen.
  • Remove the fov and turning speed reduction when you raise the shield to block, it makes it overly clunky to use and feels terrible in a fast pace environment.

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 strategies for the other builds! I would use smoke so much if it was on medium, especially to better support my team against fire, detection sources, or to help revive teammates, and steal cashouts in an open area.

FIX THE GLITCH TRAP:

  • Glitched heavy can still use the winch claw and it doesn't stop chargeNslam

My last post on the rank topic because I had enough of the finals games. It is impossible to do a TA because of the different idea of ​​the game, which distinguished it from most of the games that we know, and we were tired of repeating the same idea. 5v5 . The idea of ​​cashout is one of the most beautiful and enjoyable game plays. In any case, the change idea of ​​the game. It destroys the popularity of the Finals, not because the players trained for more than half a year on a specific playing system and simply changed it to TA, but because a move like this indicates a lack of respect for the players.

Terminal attack fundamentally doesnt work in this game with these maps, maybe actually change something about cashout FOR ONCE instead of just changing to a different mode

I understand. I’m only complaining about the LM1 and the new 5vs5 mode. I played a few games, and there’s only lights with LM1 in the opposite team. It’s really unplayable in that case and it’s only concerning this mode. I love the game and it has a huge potential, but I noticed that players are playing the same way on every game I did. Maybe it’s just me but it’s not even a skill issue or bad mates.

I think terminal attack needs to use all the tools . Not limit them. If your gonna limit a class, you might as well do a ban. Each team bans something from use . Medium class is nerfed hard in terminal attack and disregards what the class is for. Which is support.

WHY ARE DUAL BLADES JUST BETTER THAN RIOT SHIELD IN EVERY WAY?

  • Blocks everything in your view, including your arms and feet, whereas Riot Shield is very vulnerable where your feet are always exposed and arms are nearly always exposed
  • Blocks melee damage
  • Attacks faster and deals much greater damage per second
  • No movement speed penalty
  • Doesn't obstruct your view when blocking
  • It's not very obvious that you're blocking, which can fool people into shooting you
  • Reflects all ranged damage back at attacker
  • NEED I SAY MORE?

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD UP TO PAR WITH DUAL BLADES:

  • The shield should block a larger area of the body to make it more consistent at blocking melee, bullets, and splash damage. Players with decent aim can and do easily hit the arms and legs which defeats the whole purpose of it. Not to mention bullets seem to go through all the time somehow, the player-model hitbox seems to constantly clipping through the shield.
  • While blocking and attacking, movement speed should be the same as walking
  • Blocking melee attacks could inflict a knockback/stun, and reduce melee damage significantly. Riot Shield is currently hard countered by all other melee weapons.
  • Increase melee range or attack speed slightly OR reduce wind-up duration when swinging the baton.
  • Remove the turning speed reduction when you raise the shield to block, it makes it much much harder to look around, especially with such a narrow viewing window.

RIOT SHIELD BUGS:

  • When picking up throwables in the arena, sometimes the first person shield model gets messed up and blocks your entire screen.

ABOVE ALL ELSE
Riot Shield should at the very least do one thing reliably, and that is BLOCK damage. Nerf the rest of it I don't really care as long as I can use it to survive. BLOCKING is the Riot Shield's core feature and it should be the best weapon in the game to do that.

5 lights v 5 lights in terminal attack is boring as hell and it happens 9/10 times.

Cashout not being ranked doesn’t wanna make me play it.

TA is boring and repetitive with 10 lights.

Cant go back to playing cashout because no incentives that live up to the same incentive ranked gives.

Quitting the game soon if this doesn’t get changed. Big streamers agree with this and like 20+ friends will just go xDefiant with me sadly

#

can we please get a LH1 nerf

I got 2 shot as a light and died...

civic oar
#

A light can:

  • easily be taken out of stealth with one bullet and usually when they wanna 'escape with invis'... they are already under fire
  • has weapons that have an average dps around 180? remove the shotgun and it is 170 or 165.... other classes have an average dps of 150. Now tell me who survives in a direct 1v1 when both sides have perfect aim.
  • they have 150 bloody hp, yes they need faster regen. Other classes can lose half hp and still go for another gunfight. Light needs to just sit out with 10-20 hp left after each gun fight just to be effective again.
  • If you are getting zoned by a light in Kyoto out of all maps... you should reconsider playing this game since there are SO MANY buildings and walls you can hide behind as you are rushing any location, it's almost hilarious. Learn to use the environment.
  • most of its weapons require a good amount of skill and have no range (I agree, lh1 and the bow are bloody annoying and need a nerf)
  • die to a single mine.

on the other hand...

A heavy can:

  • shut down a light with the rpg. Don't even speak about how it now does 140 dmg, what do you think anyone can do with 10 hp left when the weakest gun deals more than that per bullet.
  • has an almost hitscan speed grapple hook that goes through EVERYTHING and is an absolute death sentence when used with sledge, spear, shotgun, flamethrower
  • has more than double the hp of light and as mentioned before, can survive a 1v1 with any light if both sides start firing at the same time and land all their shots

A medium can:

  • use some of the best feeling weapons in the game that have the most ammo efficiency per kill per clip (akm) which have nice recoil patterns
  • omg that pay to win shotgun skin? have you ever used it? it feels incredible... literally made me a medium main all throughout season 1-2

TA is ok, i'd still prefer cashout but I know it got taken out of ranked for balancing reasons, but why is it that winning only gives you anywhere between 250-500, but losing can drop you by 1100

bleak fern
gaunt coyote
#

There are so many things you can do to balance a game and make it approachable for all types of players and taking something that literally is part of a class away specifically isn't the way to do that. It needs to be fair on both fronts.

On a side note. This game has a magic that season 1 brought out. They are bringing in new items on top of items that already existed and are now changed. They need to revert it and start fresh each season. This season gives chill vibes but gameplay feels overly sweaty. It doesn't fit. It's taking away the magic and the fun of what the finals brought to the table. It's a struggle. And change isn't always the answer. Sometimes you have to let things stay the same. Change slowly over time. Not instantly.

Overall:
Season 1 - 8/10 (a good start)
Season 2- 9/10 (something to improve)
Season 3 -6/10 (too many needles changes

Developers should play their game....especially when you have a huuuge devteam.

First match I tried to play today too. Is there no way for the game to recognise the difference between intentionally leaving a ranked match and being disconnected for reasons outside of your control?

Buff LH1, there is still some people who resist to use it. Don't start playing your game in public matches, that would be a mistake, just do what you do, your doing great Embark, lol. But seriously, art and music department still rocks, rest has gone downhill. Oh, also balance more weapons and gadgets for TA, that is gonna make it the best thing ever, CL40 was problematic indeed, you guys nailed it, lol. I can't even... Also remove the visuals on sonar grenade totally, doesn't match the new, what, three times the size it has? It's confusing that the visuals are there anyway, you will be detected most of the match anyway. You nerfed it for Medium, then took it away and gave it to Light, and then buffed it and released the change clearly unfinished... I can't even... I ahven't even started here...

Take back the update and publicly apologize with lashings

twilit patrol
# velvet nexus to me the most logical tradeoff is smaller hit box and faster speed + mobility =...

No the most logical tradeoff is the less hp the more the damage and the more the hp the less the damage. This is textbook stuff, like assassins in games are squishy, glass cannon, 1 shot but the tradeoff is they can deal dmg and vice versa.

Mobility in this game is placebo, good aimers and with aim assist for consoles, the crosshair can move always faster than the character.

Classes having closer health pools is going against the game principality. Heavy is supposed to be the "tank", front line, medium all-round character like a bruiser/fighter and light an assassin, high damage but squishy.

This how is being done to achieve "balance", but I dont think balance is what they are trying to achieve. They are trying to have sort of "metas" that people can bounce around, like heavy was meta with nukes, then mediums where more efficient when nuke got removed etc.

Just played my first game of TA and it was just as bad as I thought it would be, entire game dominated by lights that either snipe you right from spawn or instakill you on point with throwing knives lmfao. And before someone says skill issue I solo queued to diamond last season so I don't think I'm that terrible at the game. This mode just was not meant for this game, too many balancing issues and not made for the maps the way they are designed. Was excited to grind to diamond again but dont't think I have the mental capacity to play even a 2nd game of TA

heres an idea, dont play ta, people acting like there is only ta in this game, completely ignoring world tour and quickplay

lofty laurel
#

Here’s an idea, stop crying

fair osprey
#

I completed all 8 placement matches and got Silver 2. Better than the experience I had with this terrible mode.

The setup phase is stupid. Defenders spawn right next to their objectives. If the map was cut in half, like it should, great. But it's not. Almost every map except Horizon is too big for TA.

Defenders are WAY more at an advantage than Attackers. LH1 being the Meta Light, including Sniper and Bow makes every single game for the Attackers a complete misery. Here's the fact: I won every single game when I started out as a Defender. I lost every single game when I started out as an Attacker. The setup phase doesn't even help prevent this, either.

And that's all the meta is. Every Light has the LH1, or the Sniper, and then there will be Heavies if they aren't a Light with mesh shield and dome shield and rpg because free instant kill.

And, most importantly, NO ONE WANTED THIS. NEXON wanted it and NEXON is the reason S3 is so polarizing. It's also incredibly insulting that there are voice lines where it's very clearly antagonistic towards those that didn't want this change, such as "This is still The Finals, but with Terminal Attack!" Or "You get Terminal Attack, you will deal with Terminal Attack" or something along those lines. Absolutely insulting and it only pissed my whole team off. The whole team got pissed off. I wish I was kidding.

It's not fun. I never had any fun. Kyoto being so common in Ranked TA is frustrating because Kyoto is by FAR the worst map for TA. It was boring, it was frustrating, the Defenders win every single round, the Attackers lose every single round, and that's all it is. There's no excitement. It's a complete ratty sweat fest that should've never became the primary Ranked mode.

I hope Ranked TA dies in a fire and never returns in any future Seasons. Even my own criticisms isn't going to fix Ranked TA, or TA in general, because The FINALS is NOT MADE FOR CSGO PLAY!

Cashout is what makes The Finals unique. That game mode is what drew me to this game away from other FPS games. Then, when i started playing ranked, I was even more encouraged to grind for diamond. If i wanted to play "search and destroy" then i would have just stayed with Call of Duty. if you want Terminal Attack to be a thing, thats ok, it's your game. But please have a cashout ranked mode as well. Like i stated previously, that game mode is what make The Finals, The Finals.

Dual blades deflection seems inconsistent as hell. Sometimes I get a bounce, sometimes I don't, even in the practice range with the training dummies they won't trigger bounces unless they're right in front of you. You essentially need to be pointing directly at the person that's shooting you (any variation in height or angle means no bounce) and even a slight variation to either side or above/below and they circumnavigate your defence. Considering the medium has bugger all mobility and it's very difficult to close the distance on opponents, I think it's reasonable to request the defensive block is a little more forgiving?

Day 90 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 ā€œpocket minigunā€ 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 big Nine-Oh. I’m impressed I’ve managed to stay half this consistent. Here’s to another ninety more at least lmao

-More damage to blocker for reflects with dual swords
-Longer winch cashout pull length/power
-Rebuff mesh shield and dome shield, as people too easily pop those (should be 1.5 clips of a M11 worth of HP)
-More in depth tutorial to teach players the ropes better, add advanced tutorials that gives small reward for completing

Here are some suggestions for buffing the Riot Shield

  1. Significantly shorten gadget cooldown after blocking a certain number of bullets.
    Currently, there is no reward for blocking bullets with the Riot Shield. In fact, the more you use the shield, the more disadvantageous it becomes for the player. On the other hand, Dual Blades have a significant return as they can potentially reflect bullets. By allowing the Riot Shield to combine with other gadgets in combat, it could create an interesting support-focused gameplay. This would contrast the offensive nature of the Dual Blades with a strong support role for the Riot Shield.

  2. Grant a short stun effect when hitting with the baton.
    This could prevent enemies from capturing objectives or forcibly disrupt enemies attacking teammates. If this is considered too powerful, the stun energy could be granted as a bonus for blocking bullets, making it an interesting strategic element in the game.

WHY ARE DUAL BLADES JUST BETTER THAN RIOT SHIELD IN EVERY WAY?

  • Blocks everything in your view, including your arms and feet, whereas Riot Shield is very vulnerable where your feet are always exposed and arms are nearly always exposed
  • Blocks melee damage
  • Attacks faster and deals much greater damage per second
  • No movement speed penalty
  • Doesn't obstruct your view when blocking
  • It's not very obvious that you're blocking, which can fool people into shooting you
  • Reflects all ranged damage back at attacker
  • NEED I SAY MORE?

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD UP TO PAR WITH DUAL BLADES:

  • The shield should block a larger area of the body to make it more consistent at blocking melee, bullets, and splash damage. Players with decent aim can and do easily hit the arms and legs which defeats the whole purpose of it. Not to mention bullets seem to go through all the time somehow, the player-model hitbox seems to constantly clipping through the shield.
  • While blocking and attacking, movement speed should be the same as walking
  • Blocking melee attacks could inflict a knockback/stun, and reduce melee damage significantly. Riot Shield is currently hard countered by all other melee weapons.
  • Increase melee range or attack speed slightly OR reduce wind-up duration when swinging the baton.
  • Remove the turning speed reduction when you raise the shield to block, it makes it much much harder to look around, especially with such a narrow viewing window.

RIOT SHIELD BUGS:

  • When picking up throwables in the arena, sometimes the first person shield model gets messed up and blocks your entire screen.

ABOVE ALL ELSE
Riot Shield should at the very least do one thing reliably, and that is BLOCK damage. Nerf the rest of it I don't really care as long as I can use it to survive. BLOCKING is the Riot Shield's core feature and it should be the best weapon in the game to do that.

# civic oar A light can: - easily be taken out of stealth with one bullet and usually when t...

With the recent nerf to M60 and Lewis - Heavy is no longer as strong as it should and it used to be, combine the ease of movement of light with the high DPS and smaller size - it is "way" tougher to get a Light as compared to previous seasons. Finals has more factors to it than just DPS, it has movement, physical size and other dynamics, so your argument of "who survives in a direct 1v1 when both sides have perfect aim" kinda fails.

Env > Have you tried being a heavy in the region that's below that huge tower in kyoto? If you do not have a mesh shield, it is impossible to get past that area using the environment and buildings if a light is sitting at the top with a sniper. Worse if it is a Light stack.

Most of the weapons require skill? Sure! With the LH1, or the XP-54 and their concentrated sprays - why not? Lmao. You wanna test skill? Try using a Lewis now, try getting a kill once the recoil kicks in after the first few shots. Absolute madness and what are you saying they have no range lmao? most of the lights take that exact advantage of range using sniper/LH1/XP-54, ignorance much?

A heavy most certainly can't shut down a light with an rpg given the super ability of a light to escape. It's not like Heavy is good in stealth so 11/10 times it gets spotted first and is the prime target unless there's a healer nearby. The hook is only as good as you get a good shot which isn't always the case.

Do checkout Ottr's latest comparison of the weapons, it will help you understand more clearly how S2 and S3 have favored lights and how other classes are actually downgraded.

Game is worse then ever, we can all just admit it. Embark has NO idea how to balance a game. And whoever does the testing. LIke we saw videos of people playing S3 before release.. and all of this was okayed? what happens over at that studio dude do ya'll even play video games lol

Enjoying S3 so far. A few problems though:

  • Stun Gun reversion is bad. It's an auto-win versus 20% of the classes in the game (sword, dagger, spear, sledge, and flamer). Specialisations at least gave some counterplay. Right now it's a real feel bad for them.

  • Events are still largely pointless. Only low gravity and orbital lasers have any gameplay impact. Everything else just gets ignored by everyone.

  • We need more map variants. There's no unique Kyoto variant, and still no Horizon one. I miss the cool Vegas laser turrets too. Fog needs to be removed from rotation. It adds nothing, and is just an irritating visual downgrade.

  • Sword melee needs fixing still.

  • XP rates on some gadgets (Data Reshaper, Gravity Cube) needs rebalancing. It's nonexistent on some.

  • The stun needs removing from the winch. It gives free damage by disabling your opponent's gun for a second.

Terminal Attack being 90+% lights is most of the reason it’s not an enjoyable game mode to play. There’s no strategy it’s just kill kill kill. The awesome thing about end of season 2 cash out tournaments is that there was an actual strategy to the game.

Terminal Attack should be less about killing the whole other team and more about planting/defusing the key.

#

The Finals remains my favorite game. However, the changes to ranked play in Season 3 are disappointing. Ranked matches are now locked under Terminal, and Cashout moved to the World Tour lacks true ranks, diminishing the drive to compete. This shift has led many of my friends to stop playing entirely, as ranked was our main motivation. While I continue to play the casual game modes, I hope the developers bring back Cashout ranked mode to restore the competitive edge that made the game unique and engaging.

After playing for a while I've got to admit that World Tour lacks some of the charm of the old ranked because if you play Solo most of the times you are doomed, the chances of going with noobs, trolls or people leaving early are too high, and I've noticed there's a lot less players using the mic to communicate, not even the chat.

TA is nice but it also suffers from horrid matchmaking if you play solo, the difference between going with friends and solo is wild. So now playing solo is a lot less viable than it used to be, which I think will likely throw a lot of people off, even if you got TA feeling a lot better now (I do think it's very enjoyable if you get a team that actually wants to try and knows how to play the game).

That said, give us 9 loadouts please, I want to buy more skins but I lack a reason because I don't have slots. Give us 3 extra loadout slots and you'll get insta $50 from me in multibucks. There's too many cool skin and weapon combos to be locked to just 6 loadouts.

If you're not running lights with long range guns, you get 0-7ed every single game. It's stupid as fuck.

Everyone hates TA we love the finals for the unique game it is please keep it that way. TA was a limited time event people played for shoes yet you use those numbers to replace it with cashout? People play this game casually more than competitively. (I play it both ways) So ofc TA would have more people in it when it was casual a lot of FPS games are like that. What you did with the game and world tour is amazing how you can progress even playing casually but ranked cashout should have never been taken out. With the cashout ranked changes us cashout enjoyer (the majority of your game) feel like you are telling us one thing and doing another.

Facts. I barely play dash light mp5 and sub par with it, but once you know what to do it clicks. Won a match in season 2 with cashouts completed as 2/0/0 against a lobby with 6 heavies with another light and medium on my team, using basic things like the traversal options, faster movement speed, smaller build, and that they have no healer. They can't move fast? Then start the cashout at the farthest location. They have no mobility? Take the high ground. They can one shot you? Let them fight each other first, it's a battle of attrition with 3 heavies vs 3 heavies. What happens if they do a 2 mesh shields and 3 dome shields start capping your cashout? Use the small build, dash in there, headshots only point blank, then get out. Didn't use stun instead used pyro against shields. Granted, still died alot but the regen change should fix that this season and rpg should be a destruction tool instead of a source for high damage.

Hear me out.. the player base is divided over Terminal Attack (TA) and Cashout Ranked, I personally didn't expect this much backlash over a change but it is what it is, but there are players who love cashout but would rather play TA ranked over Cashout ranked and then there's new players who might play either one, i get that the maps are 'too big' for TA and it needs some more changes to make it work which i assume they are working on from the feedback, even the devs believe TA could be more competitive and balanced for comp scene BUT people just want cashout ranked.
So what I'm saying is why cant we have two ranked modes? don't blame the queue times if you prefer playing one or the other mode, or is it balancing for two modes? well we already have rulesets solely for TA and we can have separate rules for both, its better to have options than forcing players who do not want to play cashout for its never changing meta or the issues with 3rd or 4th partying or the matchmaking. This way we might get more players playing ranked or get enough data if TA doesn't work at all.
On that note i do have a couple cashout changes which i think will make it fair,
Split the total amount of cash between teams who hold it the most, i.e. team A hold the cashout for 60% and team B steals it and takes the rest 40% so if the station was cashing out 10k team A and B would get 6 and 4k respectively.
Randomise/Procedural spawns of cashout stations.
Randomise spawns close to the objective, like close to 100m from the obj. spawning 200m or half way across the map right at the end to steal or defend your obj is so frustrating.
Remove SBMM. RBMM or MMR is the way. This goes for casual modes too

I don't know what's happened since season three, but an as Asia/OCE player I always have high ping and the game is now unplayable

I thought the FCAR had been nerfed into the ground, then I went into the training to realise it doesn't feel different at all. It's just in case my hits aren't actually registering at all.
I feel like I have a 50% damage debuff trying to play, it's literally that bad.

I also cannot find any ranked games in OCE, so I play on Asia, which normally was barable, but now it's unplayable.

Make these fast changes to TA and the Season might be saved:
• Gadgets should recharge but at a slower rate
• Full HP regen
• Ability to revive/defib
• Ability to heal - gun will overheat faster tho
• Class limit to two
• Best out of 5

as I imagined from day 1 of the game, the game would be ruined by whiny main light kids and melee weapon loving noobs. The light ones who cry from day 1 for every fucking thing, the light ones if you know how to play a minimum are really strong, but the light ones are never happy they always ask for buffs they want more damage they want more mobility they want more health! you are ridiculous, you are only interested in being the most op, not caring about other classes and team play just to make kill videos and feel like a pro player and imitate streamers, the abuse of light is shameful. Learn to play light and be a team player instead of asking them to make your life easier. However, if the game is in this situation it is the fault of the developers who do not have the courage to make their own decisions and listen to and follow the community too much.

It seems that some people hate melee players. But this game allows melee as the main weapon and that's the fact. Light characters have dodge and hook, heavy characters have glue guns, collisions and iron claws, only medium characters' melee are worried about chasing people every day. If you want to refute this, please try to catch up with me with a riot shield or dual swords. I will use a medium and fight you on the springboard until the end of the game, so that you will look like a clown, or I can use a heavy to hit you like a big truck, or use a light to walk you like a dog. Medium melee is useless, that's the fact.

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD:
Here are a few ways that can improve the shield, as it underperforms against any other ranged and melee weapon. 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)
  • The shield should block a larger area of the body to make it more consistent at blocking melee, bullets, and splash damage. Players with decent aim can easily hit the arms and legs which defeats the whole purpose of it.
  • Blocking melee attacks should inflict a knockback to prevent melee weapons from clipping through and scoring a second hit with the active frames.
  • Increase the melee range, even just +1m of range would make it feel so much better to catch enemies that were just outside your range before.
  • Electrify the baton and allow it to glitch enemies for a very short period, it would provide a lot of team utility and prevent dash lights and charge and slam heavies from effortlessly hard countering shielders

FIX THE RIOT SHIELD BUGS:

  • When picking up throwables in the arena, the first person shield model gets messed up and blocks your entire screen.
  • Remove the fov and turning speed reduction when you raise the shield to block, it makes it overly clunky to use and feels terrible in a fast pace environment.

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 strategies for the other builds! I would use smoke so much if it was on medium, especially to better support my team against fire, detection sources, or to help revive teammates, and steal cashouts in an open area.

FIX THE GLITCH TRAP:

  • Glitched heavy can still use the winch claw and it doesn't stop chargeNslam

I don't know if you have considered doing a hall of casual social mode, players can wear their own clothes in the hall to move freely and socialize, there can be some small games for players to entertain, and even a large screen to play some of the top players against the video broadcast. This social venue can use some maps that were used for competitions before, such as Las Vegas, and I always think it's a shame that Las Vegas has beautiful maps that are just used to destroy and match.

The rpg needs a nerf but it doesn’t need a damage nerf, what I suggest is making the weapon swap speed, mainly with switching back to your normal gun after firing the rpg, take much longer, that way when you use it mid fight, the enemy gets a chance to just shoot at you, meaning it isn’t just a free bit of damage anymore

Terminal Attack needs to go.
Us as players don’t like it for ranked, new players feel the same for unranked. Picture yourself, loading into your first game of THE FINALS, expecting chaos and destruction. Yet you are met with five rounds of TA, where you get mild destruction, a little chaos. I get that it ā€œintroduces themā€ but on the other hand it doesn’t show the full potential of how fun THE FINALS can be. As a new player, I would rather be forced to play 50 rounds of quick cash, than put myself through five rounds of TA. As a player from Season 1, I used to have so much fun in S1 and S2 playing Ranked cash out with my friends, but TA just isn’t fun. I don’t find myself with the motivation to play ranked anymore. I know there is world tour but I have always wanted a diamond skin, so if it stays as TA I will probably never get one.

BUFF M60 and very tiny buff to Lewis gun. Good heavy players used them and with slight adjustments, they will be perfect.

The balancing change to heavies LMGs currently only encourages bad heavy players who use RPG and charge and slam to crutch them even more. Same goes for good heavy players, which is just absolutely not fun to trade my earned recoil muscle memory for relying on the no skill required gadgets.

If you guys don't wanna bring back ranked tournament because you want to rework it and bring it back better than ever in s4 that's cool but you really have to at the very least bring casual single round cashout back in some shape or form. The mode that will be used for twitch rivals is literally unplayable in the casual playlist and the only version you can play is the World Tour tournament one (which won't be used in twitch rivals because it literally cannot be used). New players are going to come to the game looking for Cashout.

You also need to disable the requirement of playing 5 matches of TA in order to unlock the other modes, this will leave a very sour taste in new players looking for the game they saw their favorite streamers play.

For terminal attack, since it's the r6 siege gamemode and siege maps aren't that entirely big, why not make it so a medium portion of the map is used each round instead of the whole map, those barriers that prevent players from exploring too early could also be used to close off the rest of the map.

Also, terminal is a bad mode, it completely takes away from what the hook of the Finals is.

Alright... I've given it a go. I put a lot of time in ranked last season. I have to say--not a huge fan. It's terrorists vs counter terrorists... if i wanted that I'd play CS. It's fine if people like this mode, but for those of us older games who were sick of the format... Just make world tour ranked as well. It was something semi novel-new with the team synergies. This crap is BOOOOOOOOOORING to me. Sure it's sweaty on a rare occasion, but overall... snore.

not sure if its as such an issue in other regions but OCE is ranked has only a small scene to the point where the ranked gap between teams can be great enough for a team to win and lose points

This game is dead on console, the player base is 80% pc, no one casual plays this game anymore, just sweaty passionate people who think they can be the next esports pro in a game that is not gonna get one, this game was fun in season 1 and the reason for that was the game didn’t take things too serious and the chaos was there, fast forward and cashout feels like a running simulator even if no one want to admit it but the action is lacking, TA just isnt what the finals is supposed to be e.g. the gadgets, maps, class system, weapons do not support this mode so ofcourse it would fail, powershift is fun however due incentive people just treat it like a tdm, this game has the potential to be great but its to late to recoup the player base as unfortunately people r stupid and make there decision at first glance not the second or third. I love the style this game has except the stupid new anime skin which frankly looks like fortnight, this game suffers from an identity crisis. I play this game casual but cant play with friends as the sbmm is to harsh meaning my friends get destroyed and dont want to continue playing, this happens in all modes which is frustrating as every match im in seems to be full of sweats, maybe im a sweat also but inwould like one mode where i could relax as im forced to play this game solo 😦 overall i think this game should focus on the destruction and chaos aspects of the game, i want this game to be crazy not just another run and gun but i dont think that will happen tbh, also i find ranked to be a waste of time, people want the skins sure but the rank means nothing in my eyes just time played the whole transparency thing is just a way to hide from the players there true skill so they dont get butt hurt, shame the world is like this where we cater to the most stupid individuals but it makes sense as there r more of them than a conscious individual

not biased. they said the game is high octane fast paced and all the stuff, many people went just for this experience, and now they take it and force people to play unbalanced TA.

the problem with this mode is that they have to rebalance EVERYTHING. maps, guns, classes etc. the game was made for cashout and trying to force TA while balance is for high paced cashout is as bad as it can get.

i joined to play fast paced high octane shooter, but not another CoD or Siege S&D, and i think many people are here for the same reason.

also: yes we can do anything, we can tell them that this mode does not belong as a ranked mode and they must put it out.

Like the main problem with melee in the first place is that melee is never meant for medium players as they have 0 advantages over other classes. The light has agility and have the abilty to attack and evade at will using his fast pace movement speed and its dashes or hook. Ontop of that giving him the dagger which basically gives you the power to one shot any enemy(you can still insta kill heavy if you add the basic quick elbow attack). At the current state if you ever face a light player running a sword and dashes build you should stop playing and wait for your teamates to revive your body. As a heavy you may be slow but you can do alot of damage to the point where you can one shot a light which is respectable since the agility for the heavy class is not that great. Adding the chain pulling ability means its more about aim then movement. However the medium class can not beat a light player even by stealth since you require 2 hits to kill him and he outruns you. The dual swords suck since they are basically just a worse version of the riot shield. the twin swords need a buff for example you become faster if someone is shooting you and you are blocking. This is not the best cure as you still have NO CHANCE to beat a heavy using a hammer or flamethrower. The heavy wants you to get closer to him even by using his chain ability and will outrade you in damage.

QQL Game FeedBack:

Ping System
• During gameplay, pinging something near (For example) a cashout icon will only ping the cashout when a player really was pinging an enemy team who is placed past the cashout icon, it leads to frustration in terms of visual communication via ping.

Fix
• Make the ping system more precise so it’s less frustrating for a player to give visual feedback.

Hello! I just wanted to say that I do like the RP ranking system it works very well and is a massive upgrade from last season but it would also be great if there were two ranked gamemodes kinda like cs with wingman and comp where you have a seperate rank for both and then justr add back cashout tournament. World Tour is a great addition and does feed that cashout fiend in me but it just doesn't have the same feel when all I get are some season points that can't even decrease

Ranked TA is so much boring and unbalanced. I remember devs said they'll rework TA for ranked but the only difference between previous TA and current is amount of rounds and the fact that now you have to interact with terminal as attacker to start timer...

IMO TA will be so much better if there will be:
• Defibrillators and Heal beams
• Limit of 2 L/M/H players in a team
• Passive healing to full HP
• If you don't want to turn full HP passive healing make amount of HP which can be restored correlate with player's class total HP

Everyone walks with 100 HP after being damaged but its 2/3 of L total HP and less than 1/3 of total H HP

If so M should have around 166 HP and H around 233 — that will be fair

You see always light class with the Meta weapons spraying with a mp easy across the map and you just dead šŸ’€

Let the devs cook they said, play the mode they said. Well cooking class is over because I'm ready to roast the fuck out of this abomination of a ranked mode Gordon Ramsey style. Like I'm sure investors have Embark by the balls at this point. There is no way you guys spend multiple year to create a fun and refreshing gameplay experience just to throw it in the trash without no warning. I'm sure the investors were like "why is this game losing players"? "I have head this new game called Valorant is hip with the kids, you guys make that instead or we pull our funding". We are now left with a "tac shooter" where the tactical meta is just to jump on the enemy team with 5 lights running LH1!?!?! Congratulation for turning our favorite game into shit Valorant.

And before people say "skill issue" 🤔. My squad consists of 5 diamond players and we have currently played 16 games with an 80% win rate (counting cheater losses). We are bored every game we play and 50% of the people we used to play The Finals with have now left before trying the mode. The most fun part with playing Terminal Illness Attack is to joke about how boring the mode is and "how much fun we are having now guys, right, right?" We only play it for the Diamond reward at this point and we need to win like 40 games!!! People lose multiple times what they get from a win just because they get against good players or cheaters that has not placed yet and some people are even losing MMR from wins!? And this full ranked reset just make us feel bad for 7-0 little Timmy and his friends who just wanted to test the finals for the first time, we are legit decreasing the player numbers at this point šŸ˜‚

Even if all goes well how are you guys going to balance these completely different 2 modes at the same time.
(Credit to Fero)

We need someone at Embark who can deliver balance changes faster than a weekly basis. The game's meta changes basically every week because of the drastic changes made, but putting out more minor changes until people reach a more general consensus would probably be more beneficial to the game's community health by allowing the meta to change more often than a weekly basis, and the game bleeds players quickly after the release of every season due to a gun being too overpowered or underpowered

Please bring back ranked cashout

It’s what made the game unique from every other fps.

A new idea, exciting with both skill and luck involved.

Or maybe just add a few game modes for ranked and we can choose which one we want to play, and have separate ranks for both. That way we have the option. Don’t just remove things blindly.

Keep it simple and stick to the roots of what drew attraction to the game in the first place, and just refine that gradually overtime, adding content. Pls don’t ruin another great fps

# wispy latch The casuals leave because it’s always the same mode, after season 1 they ruined ...

Light definitely has the easiest weapons, and the class encourages u to be cheesy adding more frustration to the game, i dont think they understand how to make an enjoyable experience for both sides, an rpg for example is just brain dead 80 dmg for free aoe shot which used to one hit light is frankly not enjoyable on the receiving end, balance in this game is all over the place with weapons like flamethrower and grenade launches being viable weapons over others which u actually need to aim with.

#šŸ“§ā”‡contact-us May I have SOMEONE'S AT EMBARK'S ATTENTION PLEASE.
There's only one weapon that I like(d) using a lot: the SWORD.
I have 900+ hours on the game, 200+ in the practice range, 400+ of Sword Cashout / Ranked.
Now, why 200+ hours in practice range? Firstly to master emote cancelling. When that came out as an exploit, I immediatly started gadget swapping.

Now, I can understand removing emote cancelling, it's more than fair, but GADGET SWAPPING is a skill expression. Have you ever played League of Legends? Do you know about a champion named Riven, for example? She herself got some animation cancelling, which are very very hard to pull off, that's why she's considered one of the hardest champ to master. SKILL EXPRESSION.

Now, I'm not honestly enjoying the game anymore.
I get onetapped by heavies with flamethrower as I need to get close to them and by the time I reload a second lunge, I'm dead. I get ONESHOT by heavies with SPEAR, just one single right click. Lights who uses simple guns delete me, because there's not a window for a swordman to react anymore.

Please, nerf the damage, but at least re-implement gadget swapping. Playing sword is not rewarding anymore, despite having tried ANYTHING.
It's a dead weapon.
Pullkia thinks the same, and I also speak for Vain. Please, fix the Sword.
I don't find it fair.

Season 3 contentwise is great, the weapons are cool and offer new experiences, the map is fresh and distinct, the gadgets and the winch claw offer some fun new gameplay and are overall great additions to the game.

There might be obvious issues with the balancing of the new weapons that are normal for newly released content but there is one big issue that is overshadowing all the positives of this season and it's the ranked changes.

TA is overall a boring, slow paced mode in a fast paced game, it stands out way too much in that regard and not in a good way. Forcing new players into 5 matches of TA before they can play anything else is an additionally baffingly stupid move that will drive away a lot of people expecting fast paced gameplay like in the trailers or youtube videos of people playing it. If I was forced into the current TA when I first tried the game I would close it after 2 matches and never open it again.
Additionally, TA is too different than cashout and when balancing it presents obvious issues to maintaining integrity between different gamemodes forcing you to either split the game into 2 different rulesets like you already started doing with the regen timers or choose one gamemode to prioritize when balancing which will make the other ones suffer.

Other than that, TA as a gamemode takes much less ingame space than Cashout, why would you have a full map made for potentially 12+ different fight locations (vaults and cashouts) per match only to then host a smaller gamemode on it? Aren't you wasting hosting resources doing that?

I'm not against having TA as a gamemode, even a ranked mode but why would you also choose to take cashout away and delegate it to a rotating secondary gamemode with limiting rulesets?
Why push both casual and ranked cashout players into one pool forcing worse players to endure constant seal clubbing at the hands of bored ranked players?
The argument of taking cashout off of ranked to make it better is stupid too, and I frankly think it's a lie since you guys only said the change is temporary after backlash, and after making countless changes to it mid season, you need to adress it as soon as you can.

Overall I sure hope this is some stupid higher up or CEO pushing for those changes because if it's actually you guys then i'm massively worried about the future of the game.

I have an issue with healing beam being in the game. It feels bad to not have one because chip damage happens all the time and you need to be able to recover quickly from fights to fight the next team and also always be engaging at full health. I have played many pvp games where healing becomes too much of an issue so they need to add anti-healing mechanics in the game and it just makes a convoluted mess. I imagine the game without healing beam and faster health regen for everyone. I think it would make the game better and make certain plays more impactful.

civic oar
# mossy otter > With the recent nerf to M60 and Lewis - Heavy is no longer as strong as it sho...

First of, Ottr isn't the end all be all judge of this game. If being a streamer and playing the game a lot makes you the final decision maker, hold my beer, I'll quickly make a channel so you'll listen to me. I've actually studied game design, worked on game balancing for several games AND I did play this game A LOT.

Once again, aside from the shotgun, Light's dps is BARELY higher than other classes. If you think dashing around like a madman is easy while being under fire and trying to aim while dashing like that... you should go play light in a competitive match a few times and then speak. You don't need to aim the RPG you know that right?

I've almost strictly played heavy in Kyoto and it's almost hilarious how easy it is to play it. There are enough jump pads around to move anywhere. Sure the IMMEDIATE area around the big tower is risky... but so is the giant street in syshorizon, same with monaco when it is duck duck cover, same with the bridge in Seoul that leads to the hospital. You wanna have 350 hp, numerous protective tools and numerous 1 shotting tools? LEARN TO LIVE WITH BEING A SITTING DUCK.

Now if you were to read more carefully, I mentioned how H is now oppressive with winch claw and close range weapons. As for Lewis and M60, my friend just got a 30+ kill game with 20k dmg two days ago using Lewis. Just because they nerfed the dmg a little doesn't mean it's crap. Just need to land 1-2 more bullets, if you can't...skill issue.

As for Light weapons. Have you tried shooting anything further than 15m with the XP54 or M11? You barely hit a thing. Knives? Buffs did make them super high in dmg but you still need to lead your shots a lot after 15 meters. SH1900? You need to be close enough to smell the heavy's underboob sweat to get that 2 tap.

YES, LH1/bows are oppressive... I think a small damage nerf would be nice. But remember, you are a heavy fanatic whining about other classes. I'm a medium/heavy user telling you to stop whining and be objective.

Buff LH1 more, maybe more damage and more magazine size? It isn't easy enough, I still see some people struggle with it. Light class needs to be easy to play. Remove range from Sonars, they already cover so much you are detected most of the match, you might as well remove the restriction, it is confusing specially with the broken visuals of it now. This will make your game even better, you're on the right track devs, keep cooking, just keep doind what you do.

Some Feedback:

Light:

Revive Speed: Buff revive speed. I've been asking for this for a long time now. Making it 1 second shorter would increase their team viability immensely. Heavies can barricade/bubble in place to revive, and mediums use their magic cables, while lights need to run a marathon to find a safe space to avoid a random one-shot.

BOW: Very nice, not too strong. Maybe should have very slight inaccuracies mid-air like throwing knives.
BUG: Bow is visible during revive, obscuring vision.
3rd Person Bow Walk Animation: Very weird and could use some tweaks.
Sonar Grenade: Needs a nerf to the detection range.
LH1: Too strong in every way possible, needs nerfs, especially for terminal attack.
Thermal Bore: Should have area damage, collision/passthrough with enemy players, and deal around 40 damage. Also, it should have a 10-20% larger explosion.

Medium:

Dual Blades: Underwhelmingly weak. Needs damage buffs to primary attack and give medium a slight move speed buff. You cannot chase other mediums as you are the same speed. Maybe a 3-7% faster running speed to compensate for having no dash or invis cloak.

Heavy:

Claw: Should have a better visual for when you get hooked. Soft red borders/hooked display to clearly showcase lost control.
Claw needs slight nerfs to when what side of the grappled person can move and stun duration, etc.

Kyoto:
No complaints. Love the map and aesthetics. Was hoping for a 2200 version, aka hyperfuturistic Kyoto (even though Syshorizon covers that). Otherwise, super.

Events:

Low Gravity Event: Lasts too long and happens WAY too often in the last minutes of the match, making the game unplayable as melee. Getting beamed when you jump once.

Killfeed:

Should display enemy kills and cause of deaths. I often get 3rd-partied and want to know which team did it.

Team Damage:

I've been dying to team damage way too often recently as a sword player, dying to my team's gas and fire. Give friendly hazards a slightly longer damage time to begin. For example, make us cough more often or similar so we take less team damage.

Grenade Indicator:

Add a grenade indicator. Grenades are fine; I am okay with eating a whole grenade here and there, but sometimes you just don’t hear them in all the chaos. I want to see where they are roughly.

Miscellaneous:

Lobby Music Selection Options: When?
Skins for Gadgets and Items: Can we get some skins for gadgets and items that don’t have any yet? (Looking at Gateway [Portal gun you throw?], Pyro [Molotov], and Stun Gun [barcode scanner skin]).

Hey,

I love this season’s theme and battle pass—they all look great! The World Tour is a nice touch. However, in my personal opinion, I think the bow would have been better suited as a medium build new weapon, and the dual blades for the light build. Just a thought!

How to save TA

• Gadgets should recharge but at a slower rate

• Full HP regen

• Ability to revive manually/defib

• Ability to heal - gun will overheat faster

• Class limit to two

• Best out of 5 rounds

That way, we can bring gadgets recharge, defib, revive, heal, no class overuse, and faster matches back into a more balanced play.

EMBARK Allow heavy players to throw their spears. But not unlimited like the throwing knives. Instead when u throw it once u have to wait for it to come back to ur hand kinda like Thors hammer. It's literally a SPEAR. And having to wait for it to come back even to engage in close range battle prevents it from being overpowered but viable longer distances. Maybe allow players to aim and throw it through by toggling on and off the aiming mode. WE NEED THIS IN THE FINALS.

The classes themselves (movement speed, health, regen, revive, etc.) feel fine to me. I would not touch that.

Both Bow and LH1 seem a bit too strong though but not too much. I hate getting on the bandwagon but playing TA on Ranked feels like being stuck in Limbo, it takes forever, to me personally, it's boring and it is very monotonous. I however must say, I am really enjoying this 3rd Season nonetheless 😊

Let's get real, bro. I've played over 10 games since this morning, and in every single match, more than 60% of the players were lights. Guess what happened? Everyone was sprinting around with LH1, racking up kills, and at the end, lights had over 18 kills each. They can dash, go invisible, and grapple, making it a breeze to escape. The light class is straight-up obliterating entire teams in 1 vs 3 situations.

From your tone, it's clear you're just another light abuser who doesn't have a clue about the current state of heavy and medium gameplay. If a light can take down a heavy in a straight 1 vs 1, then the heavy class is a joke. No class should be so overpowered that it annihilates opponents in the blink of an eye. And mark my words, a fix is coming soon, so you better stop whining while you can.

"Lights have barely higher dps"

Show me clips where a medium with a scar-h or akm that didnt hit all headshots won against a light with lh1 bodyshots on a 1v1.

The reality is, light is a incredibly overpowered class not because of it's dps output, but because of the max hp regen lock on all classes. You can sit across the map and lower the entire team's enemy hp to one shot level.

Princess, I quoted ottr's video as a reference, that he explained it nicely.

Secondly, I highly doubt your experience of the game if light's DPS is "barely" higher. Also, you don't need to aim RPG? Are you a Heavy, fr? Do you know the amount of self-damage a heavy can deal if the light dashes into him or is close to him?

The claw and spear are nice additions but they're most certainly not the meta loadouts. Yeah, for those who know how to sledge, for them a claw is useful - not for others. For your friend, with 30+ kill with 20k dmg, congrats. I have a light friend who got 40+ kills with 30k dmg. tch tch

Your comments about the specifics of the light's weapons are so whiny that you sound like a light main. Enjoy the high brother.

Just participated in a tournament and suddenly lost my internet connection. Restarting the router and connecting always takes about 10 minutes, and now I have a ban of 10 minutes as well.

I'm wondering, since my internet provider often has these problems and can't get them under control, if I'm putting my account at risk and could eventually get a permanent ban.

My internet provider doesn't care if I get banned from multiplayer games.

It's 2024 and these short-term internet outages were already happening in the early 2000s. Nothing has ever changed.

I just wanted to vent my frustration, as my account is important to me and The Finals has simply become my #1 game.

Allow healing, regen, revives (no coining) and cooldowns (put a 1.5x multiplier on cooldown length for defenders), increase round time, lower to best of 11.

This will bring a competitive and fair experience to ranked without sacrificing the chaos and fun that finals is known for.

Nerf heavy (you heard it a million time and here's one more)

note:

  • why do a gatgid that have no activation time and little to no skill to use do 140 damage? light vs heavy is like a quick time event that if you didn't react in time you get 140 damage and die or if you're good enough you be lucky to get 80 damage which is still alot seens we have to play perfectly to dodge the rocket
    (also getting 0 damage never happen like ever)

  • the tank out damage the damage per second guy, that already dumb enough and i will not insult your intelligence by explaining why thats bad

  • boring slow HHM meta:
    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)

I feel like they missed an opportunity to not give the heavy the ability to throw the spear for some close/medium range damage potential. It could either be picked back up again or "respawn" after a couple of seconds...

Was a bit cautious but still optimistic for S3, but not gonna lie, I'm not in favor of it anymore as well. First and foremost, "Cashout will never leave the spotlight as the most important part of THE FINALS.", while new players are required to play 5 matches of TA to unlock other modes such as quick cash. The vault and cashout gameplay is so unique and made me fall in love with this game.

Health regen values, guardian turret change, glitch mine rework, and gadget changes are all good. Alongside some minor weapon tweaks and improvements to useability such as KS-23 pump rate.

Now the bad.

Remember when cloak light db spam that can 2-shot any class in S1? Well, now we have throwing knives (where nobody uses the charge attack anymore its all spam), bow with no falloff, LH1 buffed even more, and db is back to being able to 2-shot any class.

Remember when light stun gun spam giving free kills? Well, now we have the winch claw for heavy that not only stuns, but also pulls and allows them to do a survivable point blank rpg.

What happened to the "long ttk" gameplay?

The CL40 was given a damage nerf and a fire rate buff, making it one of the second lowest dps to the lowest dps weapon. The only reason for this is due to it's burst being too good in TA but in terms of TTK, is one of the slowest and will lose most duels if not careful. This change made it unable to fight against heavies and emphasized the long reload time due to the 4 rounds being gone quicker.

In s2 ranked, despite it being a poor pick, I still brought it to plat. It's main gimmick is despite the low dps, you need to play safely/area denial and learn its trajectory for mid-long shots. The fire rate, reload, and ammo was low but it was rewarding to hit direct hits.

Overall. Didn't care about TA, but if core game and balance changes are catered to it instead of the core gameplay of the game it will mess up balances for other modes. Showing more that, already built gameplay and balance isn't fit for it.

Hey embark: I love all your cosmetics and the effects of certain items as well, however, if there was a way to toggle of the effects of certain cosmetic items that would be amazing, for instance, the black cowboy hat that adds a black and white filter is cool and all, but it removes a lot of colour choices, so an option to toggle items with effects on and off or even add effects as a sellable cosmetic for season pass and shop. Thank you, and have a nice day

Since people are saying youre reworking cashout ranked

The main problem I have with cashout ranked, and just the tournaments generally is the 3rd partying while the 4th team gets a free objective, doesnt feel great for the 3 teams fighting or the 1 team thats doing nothing.

My suggestion to fix this is to stagger the vault spawns, make one spawn at the start of the game, then another about 2 minutes into the game, then they respawn once cashed out. This will make it so all the teams converge on the same objective, so the players will know how many teams are showing up and be expecting it, while not having the chance for the one team to be bored defending an objective no one is attacking. Ive seen multiple times that teams go full games without getting into fights just by chance of the objectives the other teams chose to attack.

Idk how this would play out in actual practice, and im sure you thought about it because i have. But thats a solution i think could be interesting for the 3v3v3v3 tournament format

I think TA is a great mode, it's more competitive than cash out, but you need to fix some things:

  • Make the maps smaller, like restrict it with boarders like you do in the beginning of each round.

  • Set a maximum for how many can run each class, like 2 of each maximum so you can't run 5 lights, or restrict how many can use the same gun/equipment.

  • Make health regen back to full, so it is possiable to clutch in a 1v3/4/5 situation.

@restive crow @scarlet cosmos do none of you read what I said and just bandwagon others? I said LH1 needs a nerf and that I agreed with you.
Dash is good, yes. So is the damn Winch claw. If heavy has a guaranteed death sentence with the claw, light deserves a guaranteed escape with the dash.
-Invis is so trash as the sound que reveals your location even if you weren't in their sight and a single bullet takes you out of it. Grapple is awfully slow. You can die 5 times over while grappling away if someone has semi accurate aim.

Blackburn - I ONLY play light in power shift because it is fun to snipe there. Keyword, snipe... I don't use LH1. I played all of season 1-2 to diamond using medium and heavy. You are bitching about "no class should be overpowered that it annihilates opponents" WHAT DO YOU THINK LIGHTS HAD TO ENDURE ALL OF SEASON 1??? šŸ˜„

Breadsie - DPS output is what makes lights bad in medium/close fights. I totally see where you're coming from when you mention how lights can snipe you as you are approaching the objective, but do you really think snipers are that easy to use close range? Once again... I AGREE, LH1 NEEDS A NERF, stop mentioning that. But sniper requires REAL skill in close range fights. At that point, you gotta learn to use the environment to block sight and perhaps use shield when rushing objectives.

@mossy otter don't call me a 'princess' you moronic buffoon. Although our tones might be harsh, I never name called you (til now, you deserved it). Show some respect.
As for how ottr explains something. Everyone can explain things nicely, at the end of the day, if you don't agree with them, you don't.

Let me rehash for you... in a simulated situation, if two sides were to shoot at each other, M/H has average dps of 150~ whereas L has 170-180. Hence other classes win. Also, when did I say "shoot your feet with the rpg"? You're dumb if you do that, but you can easily shoot at their feet 6-7 meters away and you're fine.

Hi guys! about a week ago, I wrote you feedback about cashout mode. And now I would like to tell you some interesting ideas that came to my mind while I was playing terminal attack rating mode.
First, it would be great if the defenders spawned immediately at a point and there was a gate between the two points, allowing them to teleport back and forth for quick preparation for defense. In this way, the preparation time can be reduced to 10 seconds, and the portal between the points can close after about 15 seconds.
Secondly, It would be great to weaken the turrets and RPGs, as well as make a certain limit on the same gadgets (including turrets, mines, sonar grenades, etc.).
Third: If the light class restores 100 health, then it would be fair if the middle class restored 150 health, and the heavy 200. Fourth: If possible, then I would like a certain limit on the number of identical classes, sometimes it is very sad to see a game with 4 light classes in a team, most often leading to defeat.
Fifth: Now playing for defenders, it is completely unclear which side the attackers will be from, especially for beginners, in this case it would be nice to mark the spawn point of the attackers (A - Attackers) during preparation for defense (maybe a little more than this time).
Sixth: I believe that the key should be a status, not a portable object. Now the mode is shifted towards defenders, and attacking the point by controlling the key is even more difficult.
So far, these are all the thoughts that came to me while playing this mode in the new season. I'm enjoying it!
But it would be great if you tried to implement my past suggestions into cashout mode (such as dividing the vault reward into two halves, the first part is gradually credited as you hold, the second part can only be obtained by completing the hold to the end). I assure you this will take the game mode to a new level.
I really love your game and I like your approach, thanks for reading

•Nerf guardian turret - lock on speed, damage, or accuracy idc which one but it shouldn’t melt me immediately when I see it. They also have stupid durability.
•For the love of god add ranged bullet drop to Snipers like every other shooter game
•Heavy’s have the spear now, the sledgehammer doesn’t need unrealistic range
•Light Machine guns have too much accuracy at range, I shouldn’t be melted 200 meters away
•Throwing knives need nerfed and the nerf on the Lewis gun needs reverted
•Smoke grenade should have a larger radius, one of the only counters for flamethrower fire damage rn
•This one may be an unpopular opinion but glitch grenades should completely break enemy devices like the guardian turret or mines

One Major suggestion and One Smallish Suggestion

  1. "Rushdown Playstyles" Are almost unplayable
    -Most of light's weapons still gets shutdown too easily, except if the weapon you are using are LH1 and Double Barrel. Even then LH1 is a zoner weapon. Both weapons are extremely overtuned.
    -Regeneration buff helped light alot, however too many things overshadow light
    -Charge is good, however flamethrower is extremely unfun to fight against
    Solution: Again, make the game less barrier dependent for heavy and less one-sided towards medium. Nerf AKM/Scar from fortnite

  2. Some weapon have obnoxious recoil
    -Like M11, pistol, and sometimes the AKM. are shaky and are not fun to use.
    Solution that sounds incredibly wild: Give weapons attachments such as sights, muzzles, grips, perks similar to Titan Fall 2. It might be a nightmare to add in, however it will significantly improve the game long term.

Why aren't we getting rewarded for playing World Tour?

What happened to getting all these sick skins for ranking up to the top in the regular Finals mode? There is basically 0 reward for playing their supposedly 'main focus' mode now. Sure, we get a few multibucks, but other than that you get maybe a cool medal or something, and a bragging right. I've played Terminal Attack with my usual squad of 3 now and we simply can't enjoy that mode, as we fell in love with this game due to its fast pace and high action, which Terminal Attack is not about. And now there is nothing to work up towards in regular ranked mode either, unless there is some reward system we have completely missed behind the World Tour.

I love that the developers are experimenting and investing into newer game modes and all that, and I love the idea of ranked Terminal Attack, but I hate that the ones who fell in love with this game to begin with are not getting rewarded at all for playing what we love.

  1. Is it possible to include and option to go to the player's Steam profile page instead of Copy their user name or report in the social tab? Cause I want to report hackers/Scripters in their steam account instead as I believe that would also works decently by banning them in steam or etc. Or at least ik is it my skill issue or enemy hacks.

  2. And also FPS is dying, im using i7 - 10870H 2.2Ghz CPU and RTX 3060 graphics card but I can't get a stable 60 FPS even though I lowered the qualities to low it frequently fluctuate around 40FPS to 60FPS when in game and while on Menu it goes around 100FPS .

Congrats for the 20k online players on steam, deserved bump

fresh shell
#

I take back what I said about the spear secondary being bad. It's absolutely horrible in quick-cash

graceful fractal
#

1.) Alright so what needs to happen is that LH1 needs a bigger nerf to the rate of fire, I think it’s okay the amount of damage it does but you shouldn’t be able to put out as much damage as quickly as you’re able to considering the gun is a laserbeam, I’m over here destroying players health bars from across the map.

2.) I would give a pretty big buff to the hip fire of the revolver because the gun has very little versatility as it is, I think the damage and fire rate is perfect on it and potential maybe improve the reticle on it???

3.)Now to the MP11, now I know MP11 isn’t a horrible gun but up close that’s where it’s supposed to be dominating at and I feel like the XP54 does that just as well and it has much better range so why would you ever pick the MP? I think as long as the damage is kept the same and they don’t buff it in any other way buffing the hip fire will be perfect to making it a better competitor for the XP

4.) alright last thing is the TKs, now all I really feel these need is either some type of reload animation added every 4 knives thrown or they need to slow the rate at which you throw them because these things decimate anything up close, I ran around today cloaked and hit so many 2-3 pieces just because they weren’t able to react to me quick enough

Ranking system is even worse than before.
LOSING POINTS WHEN YOU'RE WINNING?
Even the best player in the team with like over 23+ kills and 15k Combat Score DIDN'T GAIN ANY POINTS.

Making it based on the enemy's Ranked Score is ABSOLUTELY STUPID.
Don't punish people by making them lose their ranked score after winning.

GAINING LIKE 70+ RS FOR WIN AND LOSING -930 RS FOR A SINGLE LOSS BECAUSE THE ENEMY TEAM HAD A CHEATER IS STUPID, the ranked changes along with the game mode just makes this more frustrating and has lost a large amount of ranked players, even reaching Gold gets you around Top 500 very easily despite it not being a high rank.
NO ONE GAINED ANYTHING FROM THAT GAME, IT WAS JUST A WASTE OF EVERYONE'S TIME.

Terminal Attack is a horrible decision for ranked, people came here to the discord specifically to shit on the gamemode but its genuinely a bad decision. If we wanted Terminal Attack, we would play any other ranked 5v5 gamemode out there. Like: CS2 and Valorant. We dont need any 5v5 stupid gamemodes. The cashout gamemode was new and felt fun, suspence in every match. But forcing everyone to have to play TA is cruel. All of my buddies have stopped and Im more disappointed than angry.

Ofc, but I have been playing dagger since early season 1, and I am one if the first to play it like that, you might have seen my montages on yt. And this season I am just really demotivated, dagger just is not fun to play into light, Ofc Its possible but there is so much bs happening in those 1v1s compared to medium/heavy. And there is no ranked mode anymore and world tour is the same repetitive maps so usually I would go into comp to play into few lights but thats not an option anymore

The LH1 damage buff is so unfun to play against, you have literally no chance if your enemy has a slight amount of aim. His hitbox is smaller, he can move faster and kill a medium with 5 shots??

#

Terminal attack was fine as a temporary event mode. It was bearable to play it enough to complete the event challenges last season. Making it your sole ranked experience is insane. It does not fit the fast pace of The Finals gameplay at all.

After last season removing our ability to see our ranked score and then this season moving everything to TA, I’m losing a lot of hope in this games longevity. I completed four of my placements and I’m dreading playing four more to get placed, let alone play the rest of the season.

I Spent all of last season grinding from Copper all the way to Plat 2, I was happy and fulfilled with the progressions and the feeling of the game. Forcing me to change game modes entirely to a game mode that was supposed to be a test or a limited time is just ridiculous. I didnt invest any time into learning how TA changes the maps the gamestyle or anything. I was busy SOlO grinding up in the gamemode that we all fell in love with. Very disappointed with the start of this season. The unbalanced weapons need a serious rehaul. LH1 especially. All TA is is 5 lights running around hip firing and killing me in 2 shots. Progression is dead. I thought they would get it right this time around, but that added to many things with too many imbalances. Please please please nerf these METAs.

Embark i really love your game and have played since CB2 - Have been on board with most of the changes you guys have put in place but need to say that Terminal attack for ranked was not the move. Maps are not built for this as well as the game mode isnt balanced for this version of the game - Im all for trying new things but feel you should focus on what captivated so many people to begin with and work on it - If you put the effort into optimizing cashout/ranked tournament rather than the fad limited game modes i feel this is better for the loyal community who have stuck it out as well as build out the core that people can work towards and get better at.

If you look at games with similar weapon balancing and player health pools to the finals you will notice they dont revolve around and search and destroy mode whilst games that do revolve around a search and destroy mode typicaly have a more level playing field. Siege, CSGO and Valorant are all games where the primary game mode is search and destory they all have low health pools for players and super low ttk. Its strange how the dev team thought more overwatch style huge hp pool characters with low ttk would work in a mode where all other industry leading games in said category do the complete opposite. It's almost like the finals was built for cashout and taking away revives and certain utillity doesnt balance the game for search and destroy.

There should be another solos gamemode whether limited time or not +
The finals would really suit a takedown gamemode where two teams of 5 attempts to frag the other. Each time a player dies, re-spawn times get longer. The first team to have all 5 players dead at the same time loses the round. The game consists of 7 rounds. The first team to win 4 rounds wins the match. This best of 7 would be for casual however if it would be ranked it should be best of 13.
This gets rid of the third party issue that embark is worried about in cashout mode and would be more fast paced than terminal attack

This elo system while being transparent is absolutely trash. The devs should have been able to run some models to predict how it would play out based on a large sample. None of the top players can climb because they will play for hours winning 100 points at a time just to lose 2-4K to a single cheater. Cheaters used to be manageable in cash out but they are not being actioned on fast enough and are murdering the integrity of the leaderboard since they can solo a lobby. If embark was hoping TA and ruby would save the game they need to not have fumbled this rollout in such a significant way.

I really like the World Tour thing you guys have set up. It’s new (apart from other comp shooters), it’s pretty refreshing, and the new map feels really different and interesting to play on. Personally, I haven’t had any MAJOR issues with FPS drops, as I know how to optimize my PC settings for balanced performance/graphics quality. I DO have a few notes. I’ll put them in list form:

-It still seems that there’s a decent amount of server instability (at least on US-East servers). This seems to mainly happen on the new map, especially during times of high world level destruction periods (such as a large building falling over, it seems the game’s own physics is causing the server to lag)

-Terminal Attack as a ranked mode is a pretty cool idea, though I feel making it the MAIN section of The Finals ā€œRankedā€ is kind of a clunky system. World Tour (or Cashout IN GENERAL) seems like it could be a good fit for the ranked system that is being used on Terminal attack, plus, as I’m sure it’s been previously mentioned, if players wanted to play a 5v5 tac shooter with a ā€œbombā€ and ā€œbomb sitesā€, there’s plenty of other well-established games. Terminal attack isn’t a BAD, but it feels like forcing it to be the MAIN ranked mode. Perhaps it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have the two modes be ā€œequallyā€ rewarding, both with ranked modes that either have their own rewards, or build up to the same rewards, either one works.

-It feels as if damage registration in the servers feels a little OFF. I don’t know how to explain it, but I’ve had it happen many times (to me AND my teammates) where our bullets/projectiles will fly directly through opponent players and do NO damage. This is also observable when we throw some things like grenades, it feels like the explosions or effects come seconds later than when we actually threw them.

-I would LOVE to see y’all try and make a solo cashout or bank it mode! Maybe an 8-12 player FFA?

-people need to stop being mean, the devs are trying their best.

I think m60 damage reduction was crazy to do, like with the new recoil pattern it'd be a lot more balanced and force you to hold down fire and make use of the massive mag. And I think mgl only needs an arena damage buff, player damage is still fine if you use it right.

And got 93r needs such a buff, like the best case scenario you aim at nipple height at mid range and land 3 shots with the last being a headshot

A few takes I have on light class

Stim pistol

  • they should have a specialization that is kinda like docs stim pistol from r6 but instead of healing it gives them a speed boost and they can give their teammates the speed boost too giving light a more team based kit (which they need) and if the speed boost is too much it can be oversheild instead giving light over shield would be better for lights in fights bc they're a glass cannon class

X ray vision

  • lights can look through walls to see where a good entry spot would be, where mines are and where opponents are in that room this won't function like recon bc it won't ping/highlight people just give lights a better way to position and know their whereabouts and would work similar to thermal vision

Removing cloak for some other specialization

  • my reasoning on this is because there's vanishing bomb which imo is more useful than cloak because you can make your teammates invisible the finals is a team game why not give light more of a team but still solo based gadgets

Giving the grapple hook two or three charges

  • this makes grapple users less prone to dying after using their grapple hook or using it accidentally and will be better overall for grapple hook
grim edge
# wide talon If you look at games with similar weapon balancing and player health pools to th...

that's a good point. I distinctly hate SnD in games like this or Call of Duty with higher TTK. CS:GO, Valorant, etc are all games where you can die from stubbing your toe. It's too hard to make a high TTK game have a gamemode with one life. There are combos that you can do with your teammates to individual players to basically drain their health almost instantly because the game was built around the high TTK and respawn modes.

Terminal Attack rework:

  • No heals
  • No revives
  • Best of 6 (60k)

Attackers and defenders spawn in with 20 second wait time.
The attackers attack 1 of the 2 optional points and the defenders have to defend. If any player dies, they don't respawn until a their full team dies. If the attackers get the encryption key to the terminal, the defenders have the normal time to decrypt it. If all the defenders die the terminal finishes and the attackers gain money (10k which is equal to 1 point). The defenders will then have to wait the usual 20-25 seconds. This stays consistent with the established branding of the finals.

If all the attackers die, they don't respawn until the defenders can decrypt the terminal or the terminal finishes. Once decrypted the defenders gain money (10k), or if they somehow fail to decrypt it then the attackers gain 10k. Once this happens the attackers have to wait a 20-25 second respawn.

When either the attackers succeed in loading the key in the terminal and the time has finished or they have killed the defenders; when the defender manages to decrypt the terminal or kill the attackers before they reach the key to the terminal: the attackers have to get a new key that will spawn somewhere in the map - they will just have to pick it up to retrieve it. Meanwhile the defenders go to the new 2 defending points.

This repeats until it has happened 3 times. Once this happens the teams will switch so defenders become attackers etc. The switched teams will also have 3 rounds to fight. If there is a tie breaker so for example, defenders gain 30k in first half then new defenders gain 30k in second half then the sides switch again for the match point.

This gets rid of the slow, annoying wait times before each round and there will only be a wait when the half switches. As a result it will result in the normal fast paced experience of The Finals whilst still being a familiar search and destroy (albeit with The Finals experience) @pearl kiln

There's currently a glitch, with the heavy winch claw, that makes it so that light players who are eliminated whilst grabbed with it, will be bugged out. Some of the effects of this bug I've seen are:
- They will be unable to activate their specialization
- Unable to interact with things in the arena that require a button to be pressed (Zip-lines, doors, carriables, reviving)
- Makes the player unable to crouch (but you can still slide for some reason, but you're standing up whilst doing it) thereby making it so that you can't go through vents and such
- The player will have a slight delay in movement from when the user would make an input
- And the POV of the player seems to be slightly raised

All of these effects will last until the round is over, even upon death nothing will change

As far as I'm concerned, it seems that the player gets stuck in a state of being grabbed, which then locks them from doing these things. I really hope we can find a fix for this soon, as it will make an entire round unplayable, and practically unwinnable.

I've been playing since the beginning of S1. Reached Diamond in S2. 550+ hours spent in game. I have very mixed feelings on the early days of S3.

Aesthetically speaking, the game is still as stunning as ever. The Japan theme was an excellent choice, the new skins are very good, Kyoto is visually stunning and filled with details.

I've played one game of TA ranked. It was incredibly boring and I probably won't be back. The mode failed to convince me during S2 already. Making it the only ranked mode was a critical mistake. I'm afraid it was decided by Nexon, seeking to attract players from other similar FPS games. Many publishers have this vision that replicating what works elsewhere is the way to go. Embark has to defend its project and community there. Tell Nexon executives they made the wrong choice. We are playing The Finals for its unique Cashout mode. It's what made this game stand out, and what will ultimately make it succeed. Anything else may very well kill this game.

My other problem with S3 is the dynamic between classes. Light class got several nerfs during S2. It needed buffs to compensate. Health regen was a good call. The weapons buffs not so much.

Playing M/H, it now feels like you have to try harder than ever to defeat swarms of L with higher mobility and DPS. You can't really escape, you can't afford to miss your shots either, while getting constantly spammed with LH1/TK/bow. Unless you resort to oppressive tactics yourself. It doesn't feel right.

The issue is glaring on Kyoto, which was obviously designed to favor CQC. But the dense bamboo forest, and big buildings with small rooms that are very easy to destroy make fights too chaotic. It wouldn't be as bad if M/H had slightly higher DPS weapons, but then this would probably throw balance off on all other maps. I don't know.

Back again to remind Embark that whoever is deciding balance needs to be fired, they are useless at their job. I got about 1/3rd of a season in me with stupid balance decisions before I call this game over. YOU KNOW they're dumb when they say in the patch notes "should incentive headshots" but they make the LH1 3 tap lights and mediums to the body, like how dumb can you be honestly, first knives, now this. If people suck at getting in and doing damage and can't get that slither of health remianing by going back in or just while they're in then let them suck, why you keep buffing light so they don't need team mates I do not understand. You don't have an asnswer it's just dumb, it's not thinking, sort it out.

I agree.. Played about 15 games of Power shit and have gotten Kyoto once. As a casual person who wants to come play when I have time, there needs to be some balance done with the game. New weapons feel OP, don't have them unlocked so can't test. But I'm just getting smashed with melee, and bows. Medium ranged guns feel like they are lacking now. Again I have to say I want to play new content and after 15 games still haven't been able to unlock one of the new weapons, and have played the new map once. Think I'm going to take a break until I see some changes to the grind, and balance changes to weapons. Its not fun to grind for nothing, and get smashed with OP weapons I can't unlock. To many melee weapons also isn't this game suppose to be a shooter, need more guns in the game. Japan is an awesome setting but I don't think time was put into thought on the new weapons and the weapon balance.

BUFF THE RIOT SHIELD:
Here are a few ways that can improve the shield, as it underperforms against any other ranged and melee weapon. 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)
  • The shield should block a larger area of the body to make it more consistent at blocking melee, bullets, and splash damage. Players with decent aim can easily hit the arms and legs which defeats the whole purpose of it.
  • Blocking melee attacks should inflict a knockback to prevent melee weapons from clipping through and scoring a second hit with the active frames.
  • Increase the melee range, even just +1m of range would make it feel so much better to catch enemies that were just outside your range before.
  • Electrify the baton and allow it to glitch enemies for a very short period, it would provide a lot of team utility and prevent dash lights and charge and slam heavies from effortlessly hard countering shielders

FIX THE RIOT SHIELD BUGS:

  • When picking up throwables in the arena, the first person shield model gets messed up and blocks your entire screen.
  • Remove the fov and turning speed reduction when you raise the shield to block, it makes it overly clunky to use and feels terrible in a fast pace environment.

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 strategies for the other builds! I would use smoke so much if it was on medium, especially to better support my team against fire, detection sources, or to help revive teammates, and steal cashouts in an open area.

FIX THE GLITCH TRAP:

  • Glitched heavy can still use the winch claw and it doesn't stop chargeNslam

Man i m 100% with you i manage to solo q to diamond in s2, as a medium and for me the game was balanced, rank was decent with a good team…. But rn i m not enjoying anything, the new map is gorgeous but soo bad optimised and every fps drop gets you killed, rank is full of a mix of players that ether play for kills or not as a team. Yah light need it a buffed… but not to the dmg but on they life…. Rn medium is the lowest then ever, at least heavy can rpg them, immobilise them… all the light class weapons got so buffed that ttk is the highest in game and combined with huge mobility is hard to do smthing to them. Me and my friends we try it in a private mach and light always gets on top, can take heavy shilds out and spam the lh1 and 3 shots and dead 2 on medium with 1 headshots…the revolver always does 99% dmg and 1 hp letf lft you killed, fcar akm takes to long to do dmg to them. Rn light is meta by far

Heavy LMG changes are not fun. I understand tinkering around with them, but i don't like the new "one is less accurate when starting to fire, and one is but loses accuracy" change. I'd love for them to be consistent, which the M60 really doesn't feel like right now. The damage nerfs hit especially hard and leave people at low health a lot more often than what it should.
Just keep it as "M60 wins in close range due to ROF and mag size" and "Lewis wins at longer ranges due to lower damage falloff and better accuracy". Please.

This elo system while being transparent is absolutely trash. The devs should have been able to run some models to predict how it would play out based on a large sample. None of the top players can climb because they will play for hours winning 100 points at a time just to lose 2-4K to a single cheater. Cheaters used to be manageable in cash out but they are not being actioned on fast enough and are murdering the integrity of the leaderboard since they can solo a lobby. If embark was hoping TA and ruby would save the game they need to not have fumbled this rollout in such a significant way.

This is more of an idea/request <@&1012034066876473384> : s

Have 2 audio outputs. One for an audience and one personal.
Content creators can then leave all the audio on for the audience and a cinematic experience, but tweak their personal settings to say, hear less crowd.

Eventually in like 10 years, they'll have some option to do this visually too I think, audience graphics on full and personal on competitive settings, but obviously that's not viable atm.

Maybe audio isn't either but figured it'd be more viable.
