Maybe add scope skins? Some CNS purple glitchy ones would be nice. Maybe some crosshair customization like color or shape inside the scopes?

you never even thought of a simple thing, to also make the cross play option between consoles only! No, I disable cross play and only look for people from xbox or PlayStation, but put cross play between different consoles. No, instead I am forced to enable cross play and also play with PC players. But can you do things logically?

The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

Ks23 needs a headshot buff 1.2x,wall penetration and NO bullet deviation.

Why aren’t the Ranked rewards appealing?
In short, for two reasons at the same time:

  1. It’s not a full character skin, so it’s not something epic that everyone can use.
  2. It’s a very specific weapon (whether in gold, platinum, diamond, ruby, or emerald), so only a few players have any motivation to play that season.

This S6, for example, the Ruby reward is a Famas. What motivation do Heavy and Light Class players have to play this season and climb to Ruby? Absolutely none… Not even Medium Class players who don’t use the Famas have any motivation…

Season rewards should be something else:

Either a full outfit skin + accessories + pet (the whole thing), something truly unique and not just a recolor of already existing items (something Embark loves doing… and yeah, I know we’ll never get anything like that because they’ve spent almost two years proving they don’t like to put in the work…).

Or at the very least, let us choose our Ruby/Emerald weapon. Make the Ruby or Emerald reward a ticket that you can redeem for the weapon of your choice — any weapon. (If each season adds a new weapon skin tier across all weapons, this is just as easy to implement.) It’s not as cool as a full skin, sure, but it’s way better than being forced to earn a weapon you couldn’t care less about...

Lights aren’t that strong.
They’ve just the speed and little hit box, that’s it.
With bad aim lights will be op, yes. But if you’ve aim lights are dead before you can say “light”. And if you’re team shooting them, they’ll be dead in under a sec.
So your feedback is just a skill issue bro

Class balance suggestion ->

  • Decrease light health to 100hp
  • increase heavy health to 400 hp

There needs to be a bigger difference in health. Heavy needs a bit more health to be able to tank more damage. His health is currently negated by much larger hitbox and slow movement

Lights health could be reduced because they can easily evade using portals, invis or dashes etc

Also remove light sword

# lament wyvern Class balance suggestion -> - Decrease light health to 100hp - increase heavy h...

Lights are, at least in my experience, laughably easy to kill already (this is when I've played medium and heavy btw). All that's required is aim training and you're fine.

Yes they can be very frustrating at times to face. Conversely players just need to learn counterplay to their tactics. Playing medium? Run glitch mine, they can't dash or go invisible, conveniently also negating the main power of a sword light. Heavy? Shak 50 I've found to be effective if you can hit your shots, and flamer at close ranges with eviscerate anyone. There's a multitude of ways for each class to kill each other. By no means is everything perfect but I think we're at the stage in the games development where drastic changes like this are unnecessary to balance.

Finally, there's a reason lights aren't played at high ELOs: they're very easy to kill already. Reducing their health to 100 only exacerbates this issue in higher tier gameplay. Embark isn't trying to balance things solely for casual players, hence why I bring this up. To nerf the class further only serves to make them completely unviable in the game, at which point you may as well remove the class entirely.

Overall, many of these suggestions could be rendered moot, imo, if people learned to aim and thought about what best countered their enemies.

First time reading through this chat and I'm so baffled about the sword. Do people really think it's even a bit too strong? I barely see it in my games, no matter what gamemode. If you spot a sword light at a distance that's more than like 10m - he can't do anything to you at that point and is a free target. Now people want to nerf it even more to make it unusable even in close range?

I'm so surprised people are not calling it weak lmao

they should make it so 10k = 1 wt or qp point. wt grind was already a lot but now that they added the qp progression theres just too much to realisticly do in 1 season. money speeding up the grind would also make for more exciting matches since it incentivises to actually plug that last cashout in worldtour instead of gatekeeping it work a safe win

I think we should launch a demolition mode. In a team of five, two players choose heavy weapons and are responsible for destroying houses, while the other teammates are responsible for protecting or interfering with the opponent's demolition. The one who demolishes the most or finishes first wins. It feels very interesting!

You should be able to counter the visual debuff of flash by looking away, and the auditory debuff of flash by simply not being near it or behind a wall. How it currently works is pretty annoying for both teammates and enemies, TDM is just a constant barrage of being team flashed and enemy flashed no matter what you do and just having a blank screen for waaaaay too long for how difficult it is to avoid. This is much more of an issue in TDM and powershift than ranked due to the number of players.

I want to start a discussion on two often-overlooked features in shooter development—Kill Cam and Play of the Game (PotG). These aren't just “nice to haves.” They’re core experience drivers that impact player satisfaction, retention, and game integrity. Here’s why:

  1. Kill Cam: A Transparency and Learning Tool

Player Trust: Kill cams validate kills. When players drop unexpectedly—especially in fast-paced settings—a quick replay helps prevent accusations of cheating, desync, or netcode failure. It’s an anti-frustration tool.

Learning Loop: New and intermediate players study angles, positioning, and weapon use through repetition. Watching how they got outplayed gives actionable insight.

Performance Debugging: For devs and QA, kill cams offer visibility into bugs, exploits, or design flaws (e.g., broken sightlines, unfair terrain).

  1. Play of the Game (PotG): A Community-Driven Engagement Magnet

Highlight Reel Culture: Players are storytellers. PotG moments fuel social media, YouTube, and Twitch. It's free marketing that rewards skill and fuels content creation.

Positive Reinforcement: Acknowledging a player’s impact taps into reward loops, boosting satisfaction—even in a loss.

Retention Booster: PotG moments offer players a secondary goal beyond just K/D or wins. They add emergent objectives that deepen replayability.

Design Considerations:

For Kill Cams, prioritize camera clarity and timing—show the critical moment cleanly and fast.

For PotG, design an algorithm that values impact over flash. Multi-kills are great, but clutch plays, objective saves, and shutdowns deserve recognition. Consider player role and contribution weight.

Final Thought:
A shooter without a Kill Cam feels blind. One without PotG feels forgettable. These features don’t just support gameplay—they celebrate the player. For long-term success, they should be foundational.

Alright, I need to get this off my chest, because I know I’m not the only one who’s been mauled repeatedly by a teleporting, bunny-hopping blur with a sword and a dream.

  1. Unrealistic Speed and Lunge Distance
    This thing is basically a dash hack baked into a weapon. You blink, and the sword player has already lunged halfway across the map like some kind of anime protagonist on a caffeine drip. What even is the range on the dash? It feels like they can cross small buildings in a single bound. You think you're safe behind a railing or corner? Nah, they’ll slide-cancel, teleport, and execute you before your screen can render the animation.

The sword dash isn't just a movement tool, it's a get-out-of-jail-free card, a gap-closer, and a finisher all in one, with barely any counterplay. Why even bother aiming when you can just dash-spin-slash your way to MVP?

  1. The Time-to-Kill Is Insane
    TTK is already on the faster side in The Finals, but the sword takes it to another level. It's not just "high-risk, high-reward" — it's "low-risk, instant reward." You can get deleted in two slashes before you even realize what's happening. There's no time to react, no time to shoot back, especially if you're a medium or heavy build. You might as well put your controller down and go make a sandwich.

And don’t even get me started on how sword users can dash through you, spin around, and finish the kill while you're still spinning trying to track them.

  1. The Meta Is Warped Around It
    You can’t just play the game anymore without building your loadout specifically to survive sword players. Teams are stacking claymores, trip mines, gas grenades, and proximity sensors — not because they’re strategic, but just to stand a chance against a sword dash. Mediums and heavies are forced to bunker down or die. It’s not fun. It’s not creative. It’s just oppressive.

TL;DR: The Sword Is Overpowered, Overused, and Over-Tuned
It needs a nerf. Badly.

People who constantly cry to other people to tell them to use glitch mines to counter swords are clearly having a bad day.

lets get this straight, no one wants to have their loadouts filled with something because itll help in mainly countering one weapon-- or three at tops. It makes the using the gadget a chore and removes the flexibility in choosing your loadout

second, after all the times u ppl have whined to ppl abt using glitch mines against sword users, you'd think majority of the sword users wouldve figured out a way by now. People who come to this channel to talk shit like this really must be playing against bronze lobbies. Counters aren't always reliable. Practically, there's only around 50-60 percent of the time that the sword user won't have had destroyed the mine before it even matters.
NO COUNTER IS ALWAYS EFFECTIVE.

The best gadget/specialization is the one where you can always figure out a way to take its user down without any specific counter, with either moving or shooting,etc. with some creativity and game sense.

Winch could be countered by running/dashing/jumpadding/grappling/charging away. Running away. Stun could be countered by shooting at the person, but that was only possible when you were actually looking at the user and he didn't use cloak to stun you from the behind. So they had to remove that. It wasn't broken, just annoying. RPG wasn't counterable that easily too, especially light mains who could get one-shot without them knowing who hit em.

TL;DR: Get this, it's not neccessary that counters will always 100 percent work, so instead of rushing up to someone to tell him to "git gud" trying going up against the person yourself and finally use your brain in life.

When someone says use glitch mines, I think most ppl just assume they mean “throw a random mine on the ground and you’re good”.

Well, no. If you’re properly playing glitch mines and want to ACTUALLY counter sword, you’re playing glitches on walls next to choke points, where if the sword tries to destroy it, they’d have to be in the actual room with you. You’re playing glitch on the ceiling, where they’ll have to literally look straight up and jump to destroy it. On the wall above a door, hidden on a random canister, etc.

Ofc no counter is 100% viable, but you also need viable strategies to increase your odds of the counter working. And ofc no one wants to specifically play glitch to counter sword. Literally play anything else then..

ARs and SMGs shred light if you have good tracking: only excuse here would be if you’re a console player.

Burst weapons nearly one shot or even do one shot lights (cerb, SH1900, sledge). A good sledge can time a sword lunge to kill them in one of their right clicks.

And you CAN counter sword with movement. Take height, long hallways, and/or position yourself in a semi-tight but not too close triangle with your team.

Stop complaining 👍

I feel like the major issue with "use glitch mines to counter sword" is that it's preemptive. Most of the time if I'm getting sworded all game it's when I'm simply unprepared. Getting caught off guard, etc. Glitches don't stop someone from dashing into you usually, they stop them getting away.

Sword just feels weird. Doesn't feel like it should work the way it does, or that it's working a bit incorrectly. Idk. Sword + Dash is definitely not fun to fight against either or imo. If they made it so you only had 2 dashes, but they went further (total distance covered is the same) it'd probably fix the issue. Dash in general is just a bit spammy, which I think leads to the light melee weapons feeling wack. If dash was adjusted a bit sword and dagger would feel fine probably.

I agree but w/ out Winch KS, there's like no reason to use the gun lol. You just have a below average gun that requires more attention to accuracy than most other weapons with bad damage breakpoints. It doesn't help that they killed any animation cancelling with the gun too. It might not be fun to lose to but there's much more frustrating situations in this game that require marginally less effort.

Flash spam has gotten ridiculous. How can I even play the game when the enemy can just turn my monitor off for EIGHT SECONDS. Even more oppressive than peak stun gun. Also it’s been 6 seasons of Light absolutely dominating the leaderboards. Playing Light is boring it’s not fun getting 20+ kills and winning every single match. A fast target with a small hitbox with the most DPS in the game? The only thing “balancing” Light is the low HP but it’s clearly not enough

World tour point system needs a rework, getting 6 points for getting into round 2 is insane.

Realistically getting 3rd in round 1 should net you 3 points then second and first should be 5 points
Second round 3rd place should get 5, second and first should net you 10(these all stack with the finals round results) winning final should net you 30 points losing should net you 20

so all in all in round one you come 1st you get 5 points, in round 2 you come first again you get 15 and in the final if you win you get 45 points. ATM the point system just feels meh this is me spitballing btw if you've got better solutions i would love to here it.

[Ranked/Cashout]
Would love to see some improvements in cashout and eventually ranked i feel like if you pull it in and hold it the money should gradually be given to you this will lessen the blow of 3rd parties and we can remove this plug meta its just a thought but i do feel like cashout needs something new its current system is meh imo

[Light]
Xp didn't need a damage increase it needed more in the mag
Sword needs a dmg nerf to 110 and making it so it either cant be combines with dash or that it cant multi hit/its mainly a dash and sword issue but ye
Invis is next to impossible to see in the nighttime setting (not a balance suggestion more of a compliant)

[Heavy]
minigun feels like it needs just a slight accuracy cone buff
Feels like winch didn't need the range buff it was already strong as is(reverting the range would be ideal)
Ks23 needs better hip fire

[Medium]
Cerberus is very unique it should have its fire damage be the brunt of its damage, every pellet should start fire damage but its overall pellet damage (that isn't from be fire) should be nerfed probably round to less than the model so 10 - 11 per pellet.
Famas might need a slight recoil adjustment to make it less easy (currently the best ar by a mile) and/or a damage nerf

Additionally would love for clubs to be expanded upon, we have contracts for clubs i would love to see a leveling system giving players a unique cosmetic for reaching certain clan levels, club contracts aren't the only thing that should level the club up playing and winning with club mates should increase rank (not as much as the contracts but should still impact the level)

Might just be me but playing light without stun gun has been great as it frees up an extra slot and makes it so i can experiment with other gadgets without feeling like a big detriment to my team play (would love for it to either be not a guaranteed pick for high level lights kit or removed completely) i feel this way about defibs as well as they trivialize resing and fights most of the time plus them and movement are instant picks for mediums kits in high level.

Any fixes for the no sprint no shoot and constant sonar bug in the works ?

If you have any better suggestion about any of the changes I brought up id love to hear them 🙂

Also,

  • Show deaths again to stop this fourth partying and make solo fights & clutches about skill again cuz why did it even become hidden?
  • Remove the possibility of doubling on the last cashout so the first team doesn't get to decide who goes second. Might aswell make the 2nd, 3d and 4th place teams roll a dice at the end of every round.
  • Fix spawns - the team you just wiped shouldnt be able to spawn closer to the cashout you have to go to, or spawning 200m from your own cashout cuz you just got third partied is diabolical

Here's my list of fixes that would fix this game, make it popular and increase profits by at least 3000%:

1. Remove light from the gameLight's teamwork is consistently underwhelming, making him a weak link in the game. Removing him would improve overall balance and competitiveness.

2.Remove light from the game
Light is clearly overpowered, creating an unfair advantage that disrupts the experience for other players, specially new players, His removal would help restore balance.

3.Remove Light from the game
Light's mechanics and playstyle are frustrating to deal with, things like dash sword, invisibility, taser have to be constantly reworked to not be overpowered, leading to a negative gameplay experience. Removing him would significantly improve player satisfaction.

Day 6 of asking for a Spear buff:
Among many of the Spear’s problems, one of the most noticeable when using it is it's shockingly low DPS. Here is a list of guns that can out TTK the spear in Melee range while also being able to do damage from range.

Spear:
Light - Medium - Heavy
1.80s - 2.50s- 3.20s

Heavy v Heavy:
.50 Akimbos: 1.83 > 3.2
Lewis Gun: 1.6 > 3.2
M60: 1.6 > 3.2
KS-23: 2.47 > 3.2
SA1216: .80 > 3.2
SHAK-50: 1.57 > 3.2
MGL32: 2.67 > 3.2

Medium v Heavy:
AKM: 1.7 > 2.5
CL-40: 2.3 > 2.5
FCAR: 1.4 > 2.5
Model 1887: 1.6 > 2.5
R .357: 1.6 > 2.5
Pike-556: 2.1 > 2.5
Cerberus-12: 1.8 > 2.5

Light v Heavy:
93R: 1.64 > 1.8
V9S: 1.33 > 1.8
M11: 1.26 > 1.8
XP-54: 1.48 > 1.8
LH1: 1.5 > 1.8
SH1900: .75 > 1.8
M26 Matter: 1.41 > 1.8

Note: These damage numbers come from patch 1.5.5 and takes into account only body shot numbers. The spear numbers come from its M1 standard attack, not the spin. I just wanted to illuminate that even when Spear has the first shot on another player, how often they lose. Thank yall embark for continuing to do an amazing job on my favorite game and please consider buffing the spear in any capacity!

I think the XP54 should be tweaked again.

IIRC, the gun used to be 30 rounds, 18 damage per hit (non crit). It was a beast back then. Its damage got nerfed from 18 to 16, then its ammo cap buffed from 30 to 34 as a trade-off. Now its damage has been raised from 16 to 17, keeping the 34 ammo cap. I don't think the damage buff was bad but then the ammo cap buff should have been reverted. It's either one or the other, not both, else the gun is too strong. IMO the XP wasn't bad in S5 to begin with. High ROF, minimal recoil, with a sight and decent tracking, even at 16 damage, you could pretty easily hit all your shots and melt people. Right now, I see it more often than the M11 or ARN which is quite revealing. The ARN is pretty cool, I wanna like it, but it's outshined by the XP due to its lower ROF/higher recoil, any ARN vs. XP duel shows that very clearly.

I have a decently beefy PC and still get wild frame dips, and after this last update my average frames have tanked a ton. This season, my average frames is around 100, which is not normal in the slightest. Other games run perfectly fine, and while I know this game has a large amount of destruction and differing factors at play than other games, it's hurting mine and my friends' interest in the game. Which really sucks. If I could change ANYTHING about this game, I would simply make it a little more optimized. There's no reason I shouldn't be able to get a semi-steady 144 frames with a 3080ti while my friends struggle to pull 100 frames on their rigs, but nowadays that seems like a gigantic ask. I literally got off not too long ago simply because the game did not feel fun to play, and it wasn't because of the game's core gameplay or design itself.

Add kusarigama for light,primary attacks hit like sword but alt attack is u spin the chain and blade 160 degrees in front of u and most damage where blade hits not the chain,it’s skill based cause u hold down alt and the more u hold the longer u throw and only the blade part damages when spinning plus u can move your aim while spinning to make blade go in that direction.

To simply put it,the melee alt is more like aim and shoot but use aim to move the blade and hit box.

There r two ways of implementing this,either the melee projectile starts from an arc from the left side and goes to the centre line and move as u change your aim or the projectile starts from the crosshairs and moves where u move your aim

U may change between the two using a different stance using the weapon inspection button or add more combos using that button.

Either u can’t use light spec when using alt or give this weapon to medium with a wall run gadget or else it’s the most dull experience chasing player as a medium

When are we gonna fix the spawns 🫩
Skyway in particular has some of the worst spawns I've ever seen. If you're holding the offices, then the enemy will almost always spawn on the mansion. Everybody knows about it, everybody abuses the shit out of it. Just an example.

Secondly, imagine this scenario. You get teamwiped and a third party comes in and starts fighting the team that just wiped you. You respawn with the cashout still technically being yours, but you spawn across the map and can't do anything to defend it, and are forced to go to the other cashout. Why? I don't care if there's two teams on my cashout, it's MY cashout, I should spawn at my objective instead of across the map at someone else's, only to get third partied because the spawn system favoured it that way.

The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

Heavy doesnt really have a weapon that is “strong”
Light has Xp, m11, and other really solid options like the 93r and matter
Medium has cerb, famas and solid options like the fcar, revo, akm and unfortunately the cl40
The minigun has been a good addition to heavy but alongside all the other heavy weapons, its inconsistent. The deagles are solid but have strange RNG at times the sa nerf was extremely unnecessary, the shak is quite weird at times but still solid, the lewis sucks compared to the m60, but theres no “meta” for heavy and it feels strange

I mainly used it for delaying cashouts but vortex seems better if you know where to place it. if you active it while they are stealing it 80% of the time it'll knock them off and they'll have to start the steal again. before they can get the steal off if you positioned it right the cashout will be thrown causing them to have to restart again. this gives way more stalling time then stun gun. I don't think the version of stun gun we had is good as all it did was give you easy kills and stall for a about 2 seconds.

Light Sword+Dash is oppressive for a new player and annoying for midlevel play while being mediocre in high level play.

so what do we have currently?
its left click doing 74 (fine) right click damage being 140 with AOE (issue). sledge was changed to not multhit with its heavy attack for a reason do the same for this.
effective range of this increases by a lot when combining dash+ sword alt/right click, 6m 7m to something like 11m-12m although light becomes a human bullet. so he is vulnerable to mines and being shot while coming at a target.

this range increase makes so sword achieves slightly better range of effectiveness off the double barrel with the disadvantages of positioning and not able to interact with stuff if they dont get close (activating mines, damaging props and other stuff in the map), also being line of sight exposed when attacking to gunfire and gadgets

Assuming a light player uses dash +sword or dash + double barrel with both having vanish bomb...

So sword can do (140+40) (180) to oneshot light from 11-12m while double barrel two shots them in 10 m and needs to be at 4m-5m to oneshot them

So sword can (140+140) (280) to two shot medium with 11-12m while double barrel needs 6-7m to two shot them (light can also 140+40+74 for similar two shot)

So sword can (140+40)+(140+40) (360) to two shot a heavy with 11-12m while double barrel needs 4-5m to two shot them...

main differences important to point out double barrel has to reload sword does not, sword is forced to use dash to engage while double barrel can decide depending on situation. sword has AOE double barrel does not.

drop its alt fire damage to 120 and reduce AOE. about the AOE If the secondary would only hit in a straight line, that would be enough of a nerf for it. I'm OK with the range and all, but if your going for a Lunge, you shouldn't be able to draw massive circles to hit left and right of your corridor. Also lag and bad server tick rate benefit melee more then guns in general

Heavy sniper when?

A sniper on Heavy would be inherently overpowered.

  1. Weapons do 150 or 250 before they do 350.
  2. Snipers cannot be contested except by other weapons with extremely long falloff ranges.
  3. Result: Heavy will beam people from across the map with a weapon that will do 150 or 250 damage before the Light or Medium long-range weapons can do 350.

Snipers should only ever be on Light because having the lowest HP compensates for it having a longer falloff range than any other weapon.

DMRs should only ever be on Light and Medium because it’s the next longest-range weapon.

For the above reasons, the .50 Akimbos should be the closest to a “DMR” Heavy is ever allowed to have:

  • No scope
  • Far lower falloff range than actual DMRs
  • Far more harsh falloff % modifier than actual DMRs

Nah it should definetly be a Hecate II

@suzu.yuri#0000 if we make it a one round one or two round sniper doing 74 per shot, and having a 3 second reload, could be pretty balanced

@suzu.yuri#0000 (trying to ping you again) then take away its scope, if you give heavy just a bolt action rifle with nothing but iron sights, something like an anti-tank rifle, that could work perfectly, since those shits were big and shot big rounds, but were slow reloading and had no sights

No, because even tho heavy is low speed high health, theyre also high and sustained damage, meaning any sniper in the heavy class would one shot lights. Not that I think it should, thats just reality. If you think the DB is bad, imagine a light player just walking in the open and getting one tapped, no headshot. No matter how bad the iron sights are people will adapt and get good with it, just as they are with the repeater, and thats why it's becoming a problem now that people have good practice with it.

Also Embark fix ur damn servers, I can't play light if I'm lagging every time I gotta move fast

Any map that you can “fall off the edge” needs to be removed from world tour and ranked, it completely ruins the game especially for heavy’s when using the charge and slam, the whole bridges and jump pads to get across the map makes points where some people can be completely blocked off from sections of the map unless they have god tier aim, Kyoto and any maps thag you can fall off the edge need to be completely removed

I think it would be really cool to have a medieval european themed season. Have a castle map with cosmetics like a suit of armor or robinhood style getup. We could get more weapons or gadgets, like a "health potion" to help heavies act more like a tank. Currently heavies have the longest time to regen to full and I think a health potion to regenerate a section of their health might be a good idea. mediums could get a crossbow or something, like the bow for lights but instant firing, long reload, high damage and projectile based. Lights could get a "parkour" specialization, allowing them to run faster while it's active and double jump, or wall run/wall climb. Definitely not both as that would be overtuned. I'd be fine without this of course, but I'd really love some more medieval stuff in the game.

I find it great that this game enables melee options to be viable (to an extent) in an FPS game. However, I feel like being able to quick melee immediately after swinging a melee gives it too much oomph, making it far more viable than it should be (sword lunge can instantly kill a light if combo'd with a qm and so can heavy swing).

Ppl seem so but hurt about the sword lately but the dash combo seems fine to me and isn't that hard to counter as long as you remember this game is basically rock paper scissors for playstyles. Figure out a counter with gear or change how youre playing with your team and it shouldnt be that hard to kill even an adept sword player. It's pretty rare to come across a player who is able to position themselves right and when I do get worked by one its because im choosing to ego challenge them or my team and I aren't keeping a triangle (football) . If youre SoloQ that basically goes out window though but SoloQ is a whole problem in itself. I would love to see actual issues fixed like the networks lag, ping meter, server location selection, and matchmaking optimization. I played solo other day and went 5 matches in a row getting teammates who got 0 or 1 kill while im getting 5+ with 1st round knockouts... My friends got on and i get to the finals in first run and back to 10+ Kill average... Something is not right there and really makes it so I only play when friends are on otherwise it really is a horrible experience and unenjoyable. Im basically repeadetly punished for being average and carrying absolute losers who dont know the basics.

  • Rifle backpack upper back item

  • Nitpick, but the Fumigator and Vaiiya Filter are both gas masks, albeit slightly different models. For some reason, the Vaiiya filter can be worn with certain helmets that the Fumigator cannot be worn with, despite them occupying pretty much the same space. The only difference is that the Fumigator has a strap that goes over the top of the head, which would easily fit under helmets. Considering the Campsite Creeper mask has WAY more mass on top and still can be worn with helmets, this is a baffling decision. Again, dumb stuff like this holds the customization back a little for no reason.

Please add the Barrett SRSS to the heavy class as a second explosive option.
It could have programmable ammo (as irl) where when close enough to an enemy, it would automatically explode (unless it detects it's gonna get a direct hit). Obviously, this means that its AoE DMG would be rather low, but it could be useful for chip damage or finishing off a target you've directly hit a few times.

Do you think there’s a chance Embark may add a map editor in the future?
Giving lite dev tools to players is an excellent way to boost the longevity and engagement of a game. Take Halo’s Forge mode and Gmod. Specifically looking at Halo Infinite and MCC—a good percentage of the population on those games is on the custom games browser on player-generated maps and modes.

I think a map editor would be an exceptional addition.

SERIOUS BUFF THE V9S. It is so underpowered. I have said it before, it a single tap weapon, which is better for long range, but has ABYSMAL damage at any range past 10 meters. Based on damage falloff its a close range weapon with decent long range abilities, but since its single fire, it suffers in accuracy. While the XP and M11 can spray and and afford to miss a few bullets, the V9S CANNOT MISS or else you WILL DIE. And youre telling me to get headshots with the TERRIBLE hipfire accuracy? Not happening.

Also, FCAR is WAY too accurate and powerful, even at range. I dont have the stats and I dont care, I have enough experience fighting it to say it's too much. If they can melt me in ~0.7 seconds from 30+ meters with an AR thats too powerful. I cant even get CLOSE to them half the time. Even when taken by suprise they seem to land every shot and kill me. Im in Plat right now and 7/10 mediums run FCAR. Lights are underpowered this season beyond reason, with the exception of XP.

And finally, for the LOVE OF GOD, make people MUCH MORE inaccurate while FLYING THROUGH THE AIR. Mediums have a nasty habit of using jumppad to fucking airstrike, and somehow while flying through the air they can take 3/4 of my health before landing. Fix this

Edit: No I stand corrected, 80% or more mediums are running FCAR

I'm definitely just bad at the game, but as a light player I feel like it would be more fun if someone couldn't drop on you and take you out in .3 seconds to take you out for half a minute. I think it would be cool if respawn times where based on how long it took to kill you. Dying to D.O.T should give you the full 30 second time, while getting marked by an SH1900 (kill time for lights is on trigger pull) would only give like 10 seconds.

I wish Embark could do more about people leaving matches early. Especially in TDM, people just leave if they lose the first round pretty heavily. But to be totally honest this only happens more in late night NA when the player pool is smaller. Some of the worst most toxic experiences Ive had with the game have mostly been late night NA. Peak hours is chill.

Hello Embark team,

Here is a low priority idea: allowing players to choose their character pose for main menu and pre-match lobbies. For instance, I would like the FAMAS 'at ease' pose that other characters currently use (left hand on the rifle grip instead of holding the rifle pointing towards the sky).

World Tour is unplayable without a 3-stack... I think I played around 10 games of WT by now - and every single game has been a really bad experience. I think 8/10 games I had leavers and teammates ending with 0 elims and combat score < 300! The 2 games I had without bad teammates we were still completely stomped by 3-stacks. Something needs tweaking in match making. Leaver penalties, and potentially even warning solo- and duo queuers against playing. I would love to play this game mode - because the rules are much better than QM - but as it stands it is simply unplayable.

# dawn valve SERIOUS BUFF THE V9S. It is so underpowered. I have said it before, it a single ...

I think it’s pretty good. The damage falloff comes on early but isn’t actually that severe. Hipfire accuracy is also really rather good. Main positive traits that you omitted are that it reloads very fast and has an 800 damage mag, which is really quite powerful. If it had too much of a range buff I’m pretty confident it would become the best light weapon.

FCAR’s alright but I think you are rather exaggerating it.

The last one is interesting to me since usually people are calling for the opposite of that. Enemies on a jump pad are quite easy to hit though.

Is the Spear ever going to get a hitbox change on its spin attack? It’s wildly inconsistent and is only really good at killing lights in small corners.
The hitbox for the swings tracks the spear accurately, so it swings ABOVE people’s heads because of the stupid animation being so over the top. Just flatten the hitbox into a circle around the player and it’ll actually be a usable weapon.

@solid isle Fix funny spinning stick
Spear alt rework,replace weird spinning with pole vaulting,hammer has destruction where u change the map,make buildings fall but with spear u just spin……?
If u can do vaulting(in an arc motion) then u can cover vertical distance and jump rooftops and have a thrust attack when falling after vaulting and more damage the higher u fall, u can still have only one spin attack if u hold primary attack

The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

Ks23 needs a headshot buff 1.2x,wall penetration and NO bullet deviation.

Personally I think cerb is in a fine spot. It's got shit for range so it's really an anti-melee/get in your face gun. Just shoot the dude before they get close or run away if they got you in a tight spot. Same with people saying melee weps are op. Just calmly walk away and shoot them.

Allowing players to work on old battlepasses would be a gamechanger. I stopped playing halfway through season 1 due to the balancing being annoying to play against and I've come back and played another 150 hours. Starter packs can remain as the "OG" or exclusive cosmetics. Either that, or allow some rewards to be redeemed after the season is done. Perhaps after completing a battlepass you gain a cosmetic token that allows you to unlock one cosmetic or bundle from a previous battlepass. This would not only incentivise grinding, but the token could be used for exclusive redeems for players that already completed a battlepass.

When queueing with a friend (who deleted the game yesterday due to impossible matchmaking), as DUO, I would rather wait for 10 minutes and play with all randoms/other DUOs around our skill, rather than get yeeted in a lobby full of 3-stack sweats that never saw sun or touched grass, and play with cheats and/or mouse&keyboard on fucking consoles (for the last part at least give us, console players, more aggressive aim assist at least)

World Tour is THE BIG MODE where casuals first make their move to after quick cash. And its the worst mode at the moment. Hold Rubys and already E1 players away from casuals. This game wont grow if our "oh so good old" veterans stomp the recruits into hell. If they need to wait for matches so be it. Not all are as grindy as sweaty as them. It just hurts the growth.

ALLOW US TO DENY GETTING DEFIBBED!!! Is beyond silly at this point

@paper meadow Yes it's become a selfish gadget for randoms trying to boost their stats and don't care when or where they defib you. And us not being able to swap classes when getting randomly revived is annoying as well.

Doesn't help either that "Revive A Teammate" is a daily contract. Makes people prioritise that over smart revives. The nerfs of defib was clearly made from a competitive/squad/party viewpoint. But us solo players suffer from it since we take time to respawn, spawn with half the health, and can't use any specializations or gadgets for a time after.

Want people to keep playing the game? Annoying things like these can play a part in players quitting. Isn't exactly rare to get defibbed.

Change the ranked Mode to a Mode where good playing is rewarded. There is no point in having 3 cashouts if the first 2 are combined worth less than the last one . Because of that there is many situations where you play good get every cashout and then it gets doubled in the end and a Team that did nothing the whole game gets rewarded and you lose

i dont use it and i dont think its that bad, just gotta play in a way that counters it

i do however play dagger and thats a perfect counter for a greedy sword user so I have to give benefit of the doubt for those struggling and I think the only real issues with the sword + dash is the absurd range and phantom hits - no doubt phantom hits is some crazy ahh bug that just needs to be fixed, and the range is possibly something that could be fixed by having the highest momentum prioritise in a dash lunge so that you only have the dash momentum without the addition of the lunge momentum

im only imagining however how annoying this would be for any dash sword user as nerfing the range obliterates the whole shtick of the sword's playstyle over any other melee

# mellow narwhal World tour point system needs a rework, getting 6 points for getting into round ...

First, thanks for actually suggesting changes to things instead of just asking for values buffs and nerfs haha.

I have to say I agree with the idea of changing WT points. With the introduction of QP points this season, trying to complete that as well as WT and Ranked is way too much content to complete for the rewards offered. I love what you suggested, but don't entirely agree with making the max points for getting into Round 2 lower (although I like the fact that overall the points you can gain is higher).

I absolutely love the gradual money idea. It rewards teams who are able to steal as well as the people who actually put the money in for themselves and who can hold it, and as you say it lessens third party impact by giving them less to take overall if they do third party.

About the Cerberus damage, if you wanted the fire to be the brunt of the damage dealt, I'd put it on the lower side of about 10 per pellet and possibly make the fire damage 20 after one shot, 35 after 2 and 50 after 3 to encourage players of the gun to hit their shots, as without QM this would be the only way to kill a heavy, and would actually allow lights to not immediately be one shotted, while still, I believe, giving users of the Cerberus a good opportunity to kill them. To compensate I'd slightly increase the range by a few meters so it's a little more viable.

In my opinion the trivialisation of defibs comes from it being a daily challenge to revive people. This straight up needs to be changed and replaced with either opening 1 vault, starting 1 cashout, or stealing 1 cashout, as it would encourage people to actually play cashout based modes, which should be the main draw of the game (honestly the ranked and WT systems need some changes in matchmaking and they'd be so much better after just those)

In lieu of the original comment, if anyone has any suggestions about anything I've talked about, feel free to reply to this comment ❤️

Now go and reach THE FINALS 💪

delete or rework the light class is a useless and troll class used by stupid children one of the most disgusting classes seen in a video game. Often it is a nuisance both to have in a team and against. Most of those who abandoned the game and hated it is because of the light class and all those weapons and gadgets for noob no skill. The game had the potential to be fun instead you made it a frustrating and horrible game. For this the game almost died.

Plus you have the most horrible match making system ever.

Please change the ranked points loss when teammates leave, it is unfair to 2v3 and then lose up to a 1000 points. Its is a team based game and not winnable unless you have 3 people playing. The person leaving gets a punishment, which is good. But the rest of the team also get punished, which isnt.

PLEASE REACT IF YOU LIKE THESE IDEAS SO THE DEVS HEAR ME 🙏

new specilties for medium and heavy
heavy: this ability would put the heavy in some sort of rage, increasing fire rate, ammo capacity and destructibility, for melees, it increases the movement and swing speed, addrionally this ability would recharge slightly for every kill.
medium: some kind of battle call that either gives bonus health and increased movement speed or refreshing all abilities for nearby teamates (will NOT refresh a refresh) (also the refresh doesnt benefit the medium if they dont buff another teamate)
medium slime gadget: when thrown on teamates, i will give them more health, but if thrown on enemies, it slows them down
note: the finals if you use any of these ideas, i demand the next camo to be cow print and maybe some sort of cow print clothes.

Rewards for coming first in your bracket for ranked NEED to be a thing, this would prevent unnecessary griefing, the only issue is ELO inflation, but if every team, especially the first is inclined to stay first, there will be less doubling and more strategic playing to ensure staying in first.

High ELO Cashout is not really fun, especially when you do mostly everything right, and the last box gets doubled and you’re kicked out for simply being second.

The incentive to being first and how it differs from ranked was highlighted in PHL, where second and first had a solid difference in points gained based on positioning.

Yes there was griefing, but not to the extent of double last box haha focus second team fair gameplay.

The second thing that needs to be fixed is cashout itself, 3rd partying is still an issue even though s3 promised a more robust and balanced gamemode as it was “shelved” temporarily for TA. We have not received much, and the only changes have been to WT have not affected Ranked in the slightest.

Lastly, spawn quality has deteriorated severely since the beginning of Season 6, Monaco especially has been affected the worst and continues to play horrible due to the spawns piling up on one active cashout.

Sometimes I wish heavy had more potential for set play like being able to drag the cash out without using the winch claw it probably wouldn’t go super well but I just feels weird having them be the same size as the cash out without any consistent way to move it.

Make the Ranked and World Tour rewarding more fair

In ranked we spend 20 minutes to win +1000 while spending 8 minutes to lose 1000. The maximum amount of ranked points we lose has to be 500 maximum at any place. But this is in the lobbys with the same or close enough ranks. The game can just send you to the lobby with Diamond ranks while you are the gold 4 or 3. In that cases we have to lose even less points like -40 for the 7-8 place in tournament. This is because of the player base and it's amount.

Also the rewarding in world tour is unfair as well. You can win all cashout except last put a lot of effort and time and win no points for the 5-6 and 7-8 place in tour. That's why i ask you to give +2 points for 5-6 and 7-8 place, +8 for 3-4 instead of +6,+16 for second place instead of +14 and +27 for the first place instead of 25

Update after patch 6.0 :
Still no stun gun. When claw do 5dmg, grab you and stun you, like the stun gun but it's still here and even buff this season. Nice. It's unfair. Claw + Hammer + Punch = Free Kill.

OH ! And I never see so many cheaters. S6 is from far, the most cheaters season since the beginning. Well normal. New seasons. New players and a lot of kids player who can't play by themself. Thanks cheat code and cronus.

For the game

  • Add "step" in the reload animation so when you climb on something during a reload, it's not completly reset.
  • Increase the netcode/tickrate/servers. Getting kill at 3m far from a hammer/sword or behind a wall / door / cover is not ACCEPTABLE. Servers can't register your movements
  • Perma ban cheaters
  • Add a report option " AFK on purpose " in the report section in game please. I'm maining Light and it happens that player AFK just because they don't want Light in their team. You can let them on your game.
  • Let us choose our sight weapons at the beginning of a game
  • Let us go in practice with friends
  • Delete low gravity event. It's not fun AT ALL and unfair for Light. Movement are cancel and they only got 150HP
  • Random skin and charm list for weapons/gadgets
  • We shouldn't lost point in ranked when a team mate leave the squad and didn't play during the round
  • Let us invite friends or join them in group even if we are not the group leader
  • Add the possibility to look at the profil/card of friends and recent players.
  • Dash is trash with your netcode. Servers can't register a dash behind a cover and you will die anyway
  • **Give us the possibility to customize rules in private match. Like "only M and Dual Blade", "only Light and SR84", "only marksman", "No heal, Light only and grenade only". You can imagine all you want and put it in private match for streamer and their community to make the game more fun **
  • Let us use our VR for XP weapons or other things (not from me but very interresting idea !)

** For balance **

  • CB01-Repeater is just stupidly strong and OP. Nerf this weapons fast before all the new/come back players leaves your game again and for ever. EDIT : Nevermind, it's already happening
  • CL40 buff was too much. Need to nerf it again. EDIT : AND YOU GIVE 1K$ by kill in WT for this !
  • Buff Vanish Bomb and make it start regen instant. It will increase survability for the Light and it can be use for your teammates too !
  • The Sword buff was not necessary in 5.8
  • Nerf Turret range.
  • The FAMAS nerf is useless in 5.8
  • Nerf proximity sensor range
  • Reduce the radius of the reflect of the Dual Blade or let us shoot in the feet or something else to let us counter DB when you got an AR
  • Nerf Cerberus damage.
  • Nerf the range of the KS shotgun. You can put 100 dmg at 20m easy.
  • Nerf PIKE to 48 instead of 50 dmg. You know what you did in 5.8 with that.
  • LH1 nerf was to strong in 6.0. Buff it to 45 dmg.
  • Buff Light survability or DPS. Light should be the DPS class but the game is always around Medium and Heavy class
  • Nerf a bit Deagle damage or range
  • Flamethrower and hook should NOT get you through walls or other.
  • Nerf the right clic sword + Dash on Light. You couldn't dash with your sword charged
  • Revive and Objectives score should add additional points in ranked
  • Rework defib: Reduce the cooldown reset to 5s and give 100HP instead of 50% of your HP. It will force Medium to revive more safety !

I will always post this now and add some changes time to time

Light breach charge needs to break smaller holes that’s enough for lights to peek and shoot or go through and don’t leave large open holes like it already does and besides no one needs that level of destruction and it’s almost NEVER used!!!!!
Make damage STACK at least close to season 1 breach charge.

Add a flare gun that leave trails like the colourful purple smoke/sparkle if stuck on players and does small burn damage and sparks damage player teammates nearby,leaves more smoke if flare is stationary so it’s also a long range smoke bomb,it’s duel purpose.

I've been thinking about an idea that I don't know if it's been given before or something like that, but it would be great if you could customize the death explosion. What I'm going with this is that instead of exploding into coins, you'll explode dice, caps, tokens, bills, etc. Small things that don't obstruct or bother the gameplay, so you feel more freedom when creating your avatar 😄
I don't know if anyone else thinks it's a good idea.

[World tour]
World tour point system needs a rework, getting 6 points for getting into round 2 is insane.

Realistically getting 3rd in round 1 should net you 3 points then second and first should be 5 points
Second round 3rd place should get 5, second and first should net you 10(these all stack with the finals round results) winning final should net you 30 points losing should net you 20

so all in all in round one you come 1st you get 5 points, in round 2 you come first again you get 15 and in the final if you win you get 45 points. ATM the point system just feels meh this is me spitballing btw if you've got better solutions i would love to here it.

[Ranked/Cashout]
Would love to see some improvements in cashout and eventually ranked i feel like if you pull it in and hold it the money should gradually be given to you this will lessen the blow of 3rd parties and we can remove this plug meta its just a thought but i do feel like cashout needs something new its current system is meh imo
Would love to see a system in ruby lobbies/diamond lobbies where placing third makes it so you dont lose any rp so it just gives +0 this would alleviate some pain in losing hours of ranked points in 1 match.

[Light]
Xp didn't need a damage increase it needed more in the mag
Sword needs a dmg nerf to 110 and making it so it either cant be combines with dash or that it cant multi hit
Invis is next to impossible to see in the nighttime setting (not a balance suggestion more of a compliant)

[Heavy]
minigun feels like it needs just a slight accuracy cone buff
Feels like winch didn't need the range buff it was already strong as is(reverting the range would be ideal)
Ks23 needs better hip fire

[Medium]
Cerberus is very unique it should have its fire damage be the brunt of its damage, every pellet should start fire damage but its overall pellet damage (that isn't from be fire) should be nerfed probably round to less than the model so 10 per pellet whilst making the fire damage do 20 the first shot then 35 then 50 to offset the lose of immediate damage give it a few extra meters of range
Famas might need a slight recoil adjustment to make it less easy (currently the best ar by a mile) and/or a damage nerf

Additionally would love for clubs to be expanded upon, we have contracts for clubs i would love to see a leveling system giving players a unique cosmetic for reaching certain clan levels, club contracts aren't the only thing that should level the club up playing and winning with club mates should increase rank (not as much as the contracts but should still impact the level)

Might just be me but playing light without stun gun has been great as it frees up an extra slot and makes it so i can experiment with other gadgets without feeling like a big detriment to my team play (would love for it to either be not a guaranteed pick for high level lights kit or removed completely) i feel this way about defibs as well as they trivialize resing and fights most of the time plus them and movement are instant picks for mediums kits in high level.

Any fixes for the no sprint no shoot and constant sonar bug in the works ?

If you have any better suggestion about any of the changes I brought up id love to hear them 🙂

The grapple hook keeps pulling u in a wall unless u cancel it but it would be better if u could stick to walls for a few seconds and u can aim and shoot but it's for a limited time to avoid camping,maybe even a wall jump from the wall u grappling to
The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use,make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

Ks23 needs a headshot buff 1.2x,wall penetration and NO bullet deviation.

Embark 100% needs to bring back battle passes tbh and just have events,ranked rewards and sponsors rewards exclusive

#

Rewards for coming first in your bracket for ranked NEED to be a thing, this would prevent unnecessary griefing, the only issue is ELO inflation, but if every team, especially the first is inclined to stay first, there will be less doubling and more strategic playing to ensure staying in first.

High ELO Cashout is not really fun, especially when you do mostly everything right, and the last box gets doubled and you’re kicked out for simply being second.

The incentive to being first and how it differs from ranked was highlighted in PHL, where second and first had a solid difference in points gained based on positioning.

Yes there was griefing, but not to the extent of double last box haha focus second team fair gameplay.

The second thing that needs to be fixed is cashout itself, 3rd partying is still an issue even though s3 promised a more robust and balanced gamemode as it was “shelved” temporarily for TA. We have not received much, and the only changes have been to WT have not affected Ranked in the slightest.

Lastly, spawn quality has deteriorated severely since the beginning of Season 6, Monaco especially has been affected the worst and continues to play horrible due to the spawns piling up on one active cashout.

after watching the ProHubs League, its become apparent that the first two boxes are not nearly enough money and have little to no impact on the game.

Don’t nerf cerb, make it interesting. It has that fire effect why is it still basically just a big boring shotgun after all this time.

Drop the pellet damage and lower how many pellets are needed to start DOT, then increase the duration slightly. SO it will maintain its current effectiveness even at slightly longer ranges but you need to allow the fire to proc and burn down, meaning it is a stronger run and gun harassment and/or suppression tool while loosing its power in an up front fight. It will also function then better as a fire tool, burning grass goo and gas much easier. I’d go as far as to say leave a fire effect on the ground, even if it means lowering the base damage further.

Frankly I don’t have any problems fighting against it as is right now, it’s a shotgun after-all just run away (hey that works for the sword too you know.) But I find it deeply uninteresting in the lineup, when it COULD be an extremely useful tool.

Just one of those quality of life/customization changes that would be cool to add. I just feel like the wristbands, and watches become useless items if you can’t pair them together… also add a pocket watch plz!!!!!!

Sword is easy to counter if you have a good aim or some good gadgets and take care of the sword man.
I think sword don't need a nerf, just give an easy counter like buff explosive mine start time to let low elo, casual or someone who chose a weapon is poor to against sword just put a mine and quick melee to kill sword man.
Even yor nerf the sword to the ground, it still have low-skill player will keep complain, just give a easy counter to deal with low elo match meta or a smurfing weapons.
If a weapon only can do a simple thing that thing should be powerful.
Everything about sword nerf will kill this weapon in high rank and make the sword man practice become nothing.
Unique weapon and game play should be this game feature, Embark that is the bigget thing the game attracts a lot of players.
You have already ruin dagger man experience a lot of time, dont keep do that.
Easy weapons or playstyle still need taken care of.

The reason like Cerb, turret or all the players complaining about it is because some player or team dont know how to deal with, we need a scoreboard to show all players weapon and specialization to let all players plan how to attack or defend.
We need a great mark system like apex to make sure soloq player have the same target or receive important information to fight.
We need to share enemy healthybar to let the focus fire more easily and make snipers playstyle become useful(it would also make melee or shotgun get small nerf).

i hope we can get a rework update for a few items some day
(maybe as part of a seasonal update)

something to make certain items more fun to use and fight, or otherwise make them more interesting

turret for example, a lot of players don't have problems fighting it, but some do
i really like the idea of a turret, but in practice it often feels underwhelming to me
it could potentially be changed to 2 smaller turrets with faster charge up but less hp and damage
they could be spread out as early detection, placed around a defensive hold as distraction, or as panic close range self defense option, while being easier to pick off individually (and so hopefully being less of an issue to those that had problems with it before)
it might help it see more interesting ways to change the battle scape for both parties

there are other candidates that i think could be deserving
cloak could for example be made 100% invisible but only allow attacks after uncloaking
but i dont know how feasible these changes are

TL;DR: if you think some gadgets could use a repaint and a fresh breath of life, id say go for it, we might all benefit

These are for mainly newer players and just some thoughts.

Please make it so we get more vrs, everything is expensive and newer players aren't going to get many weapons/gadgets/specs because of it. Since new weapons are getting added, make it so 3 weapons are unlocked from the start for every class instead of 2. That way, newer players at least have 1 more weapon to try out because 2 feels restricted at this point

Can we just get a 5v5 or 6v6 quick cash just to see how this game fares without a third team ruining the experience/chances for either of other teams? It would do wonders to reduce midfield battles (due to terrible spawns) away from the objective, while the defending team is just twiddling their fingers around, and prevent teams that cannot do math from helping the winning team win.

Please add the Barrett SRSS to the heavy class as a second explosive option.
It could have programmable ammo (as irl) where when close enough to an enemy, it would automatically explode (unless it detects it's gonna get a direct hit). Obviously, this means that its AoE DMG would be rather low, but it could be useful for chip damage or finishing off a target you've directly hit a few times.
Pretty please 🥺🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

-Make a 5v5 cashout ltm to test the waters cuz this current ranked sucks balls and redundant then WT is basically the same mode

-Time to take a look at more niche weapons that have been left forgotten and actually do something with them. Insane that we are a full year into the game, 6 whole seasons, and we have weapons that are still dogshit and basically insta loss for even picking them up no matter the context vs anything in the game

Flamethrower, MGL, Goo Gun, Dual Blades... list still can go on and the so called most balanced state of the game still has very much a good amount of weapons that are absolutely trash and borderline unusable given their terrible effectiveness in performance

You have a character remain this shit in a hero shooter for example, the whole community will clown on it, do the same thing in cod with a gun and people will also clown on it

Pick up the slack with the balancing and actually rework the damn forgotten weapons

After reviewing your video, I disagree with your message, it is 33% UNLUCKY and skill issue between you and team NOT coordinating with Medium's healing and Heavy's shield while you're stealing. After escaping with teleport and with low health, you keep moving outside while making a lot of noise (dematerializing and breaking windows) and exposing yourself without cover to random enemies. You need to learn to find cover/hide without noise until health regeneration.

MODE IDEA: Profit Push; teams push a central cart across the map—but it only moves in your direction based on how much cash your team has deposited into it. Every dollar fuels the cart, and once your team’s deposit runs out, the cart stops until more money is added. No more money can be put in until the cart has run out of cash.

Teams can fight over cashboxes or try to steal the cart’s remaining fuel to reverse its path. It’s a tug-of-war mode that rewards smart plays, timing, and teamwork—while keeping the fast-paced, chaotic energy that defines The Finals.

Of course, you could always re-work the floating platform to use this mode as well.

Please Embark this game is going to die because this game is very solo q unfriendly.
What is the biggest problem about why this game is unpopular?

Not light, not smurfing, not balance.
Every game has smurfs and annoying playstyles, but only The Finals is actually dying.

Honestly, I think it’s because the game just isn’t solo queue friendly.
I’ve brought over 10 friends from other FPS games to try it. Most of them really liked it and played a lot at first. But around half of them quit after a month or two.

And it's not because the game isn't fun.
It’s because they couldn’t find solid teammates, and the game doesn’t give you enough tools to play well without a squad.
Take Apex for example—it has a great ping and marker system, so even solo players can easily stay on the same page as their team.
But The Finals? If no one’s using a mic, the game becomes 10x harder. The ping system is straight up bad.

The worst part? The real fun in this game is figuring out how to counter weird strategies and combining your loadout with your team’s.
But that only works if your team is actually working together. Competitive players don’t like it because it feels like you’re just blindly running around.
They say it’s all noise, messy visuals, and nothing feels meaningful. And when something is fun—like nukes—it just gets nerfed or removed.

If Embark really wants to balance for competitive players, they’ve gotta make the game way more solo queue friendly first.

nerf XP45 it has replaced the old M11 as the annoying light gun. I don't think it needed the +1dmg buff I think people only said it was weak because of how broken the M11 was. Instead of reducing its damage by 1 again you could change it's min/max damage falloff multiplier so it does 0.5 less dmg. Then it would be in the sweet spot.
Cerberus alot of people have spoke about how dumb this gun is now and it is 😅.
sword and dagger should both have their secondary attacks as push to activate and nothing else. This buffs the dagger as its problem is the annoying timing hence you added an fov change (that proves it was an issue) and sword being press to lunge would nerf its dash synergy as you couldn't negate the slow walk speed by just dashing to someone with lunge pre charged and insta stab them. You'd have to be more methodical with when you attack as it should be.

Can you guys make it so you can duplicate the builds in the contestants screen? Otherwise, say if you wanted to make a competitive version of your normal medium loadout, but then you have to go through and manually re-choose all the skins, charms, sights, and stickers on all your weapons and gear, you have to re-equip all your sprays, voicelines and emotes, and it would take hours to fully copy everything over perfectly. If there was just a 'Duplicate Contestant' button so you could make a new one with all that already equipped, it would be much much faster.

MODEL 1887 BUFFS:

  • slightly increase fire rate
  • remove the tactical reload animation where the shell pops out before you can start reloading. Keep the empty reload the only method

It doesn’t deserve more damage, but the slower tactical reload is too punishing for its current damage profile

Can the heavy weapon ks-23 get a freaken buff or rework please i like it but its literal buns...Taking literally 4 bullets to kill heavys and mediums on top of 2 shots for lights makes it hard to literally contest anything unless you have a very good team its a skilled weapon that doesn't reward the player at all anf punishes the people that do use it.....

Add a new LTM pleeease. World Tour weekly shakeups are... fine. But a twist on a different game mode or limited loadout selections would be fun to see again. Maybe something really wacky like an LTM where you can use heavy weapons on a light build or something in TDM or Power Shift.

PLEASE EMBARK 🙏🙏🙏 I'M BEGGING YOU.
Market the game on hispanic/Latin America, hispanics in general (europeans too) are sleeping on this game SO BAD, and it's really sad because the game could be really huge, we can't even have the same experience as you guys since we don't have active servers for each gamemode here in argentina, and even worse we don't have active PLAYERS...
maybe sponsor some known hispanic streamer... like Rubius, to play the game; also there's a couple of guys here in Argentina: Zeko, p0me, k1ng, goncho... that mainly play shooters, maybe take them into account... idk, if I were known I'd market your game for free. that's how much I want this game to succeed.

but pls do something, don't let the game die on this side of the world.

The grapple hook keeps pulling u in a wall unless u cancel it but it would be better if u could stick to walls for a few seconds and u can aim and shoot but it's for a limited time to avoid camping,maybe even a wall jump from the wall u grappling to
The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use,make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

Ks23 needs a headshot buff 1.2x,wall penetration and NO bullet deviation.

odd ibex
#

Add kusarigama for light,primary attacks hit like sword but alt attack is u spin the chain and blade 160 degrees in front of u and most damage where blade hits not the chain,it’s skill based cause u hold down alt and the more u hold the longer u throw and only the blade part damages when spinning plus u can move your aim while spinning to make blade go in that direction.

To simply put it,the melee alt is more like aim and shoot but use aim to move the blade and hit box.

There r two ways of implementing this,either the melee projectile starts from an arc from the left side and goes to the centre line and move as u change your aim or the projectile starts from the crosshairs and moves where u move your aim

U may change between the two using a different stance using the weapon inspection button or add more combos using that button.

Either u can’t use light spec when using alt or give this weapon to medium with a wall run gadget or else it’s the most dull experience chasing player as a medium

I've seen many people asking for this lately so I'll submit it to gamefeedback

Make match money be worth any kind of progress, right now progress is only dictated by who wins, or by which teams gets 1st or 2nd place, meaning that there's no reason to get the most money out of matches, just getting 1st, or for fun (70k and up for example)

I posted a WT suggestion like this not so long ago, but I'll post it alongside this other suggestion just as an idea of how it could work
For example, if you have a good fight in the last match and end up 25k vs 50k, you would at least end up getting 2 extra points than if you didn't fight and let the other team win

Slapping the Sword from 140 to 105 is way too hard of a nerf. You've completely gutted a weapon because content creators were crying about it. This is not a good precedent to set, Embark.

The exploits and multi hits were egregious but gutting the damage is fkn wild 💀💀💀. Like the cerb is right there having the fastest ttk in the game but nah YouTubers with their extensive whining got a brigade of nerds to get the sword nerfed into the ground. Smh this game yo. You got glitch traps, cerb, double barrel, hell even minigun to counter sword, and so much more but we as a community can't figure out how to swap load outs 💀💀💀

Sword is, with this patch, now unironically the single worst weapon in the game. Not only is it a melee weapon on Light, it’s one that just literally lost every single breakpoint that matters:

  • Lunge + QM no longer kills Lights which makes it literally unusably bad versus Lights, because Lights kill other Lights fast with literally anything but somehow a melee weapon comboing a Light was a problem according to shitters on Reddit and Discord
  • 2 Lunges no longer kills Medium, nor does Lunge + Quick Melee + Primary, making it literally unusably bad versus Mediums
  • 3 Lunges no longer kills Heavy, nor does Lunge + Quick Melee + Lunge + Quick Melee, nor does Lunge + Lunge + Primary, making it literally unusably bad versus Heavy

Congratulations on once again, listening to stupid fucking Discord and Reddit shitters and a literal piece of shit stuck up prick of a content creator that intentionally and knowingly abused their influence for the sole purpose of LITERALLY violating Discord terms of service to encourage active brigading.

This is unironically the single fucking stupidest balance change you have ever put out.

Its very upsetting that the model and ks23 are deeply affected by jab cancel. I understand that you want these to weapons to play at a specific range but the lack of jab cancel ends up making them worthless at close range.

Ks23's best specialisation is winch as it enhances what makes the weapon good and makes up for the weapon's weakness. The other specialisations, while are fine picks, do not specifically enhance the weapon in any specific way. Ks23 cannot take advantage of the quick switch to goo gun as it needs to pump, can't take advantage of mesh either well because of pump, charge and slam isn't that amazing of a specialisation and ks23 excels more at pumping out damage in close range without it (not to mention that it can break walls on its own). Ks23 is very much enhanced by winch due to its free one shot with it. However, the removal of jab cancel has really hurt the feel, fun and effectiveness of the weapon at close range and with winch. You can be more disciplined and be more careful with jabs, but it is still just far weaker than other weapons without jab cancel at close range. Not to mention that all of heavy's other weapons can jab as they please and close the gap in health far faster than ks23.

Model is another weapon that's far more enhanced by jab and the lack of jab cancel hurts it deeply. Again, I understand that you would like the weapon to play at a certain range, however, because of the damage nerf to the model, it has made jab combos with the weapon more important than ever. It has made model most effective at jab range and borderline worthless at mid range despite the fire rate buff. Not to mention that it's a shotgun and long range is simply not an option for the model. At close range, it is also simply just outclassed by cerberus, which doesn't need jab cancel.

What's most frustrating is cerberus not being held down by the constraints of jab. It doesn't need jab at all to be effective but isn't affected if it uses jab in-between shots

I think a sword nerf would have been much better done in fixing unintended behaviour and slowing down animations, rather than reducing its lunge damage. I’m aware that the former is more work, but this just seems kind of disappointing.

There is a reason you never rly see sword in high elo. Ppl just can't THINK for a single moment on how to possible counter it. There are sooooo many ways but NOPE. They just call for a nerf bc they don't feel like just creating some distance or getting high ground or sooo many other counters. It's bs and made my favorite weapon, the only reason I play the game, completely useless.

they are gonna have to revert this. at the very very least, 125 and even thats a little harsh.

@noble helm i'm not saying that its an issue with elo. it's just that casual players just don't think for a single moment on how to counter and don't adjust their playing style in the slightest. they treat sword like a gun and dont care if it gets close. that not something that is that complicated. if they just create some distance or put some thought into their loadout and reserves, then they would not be having any issues

@dusty river
TTK (not considering the time it takes to reach the target so add like half a second to light and medium):
Light: 0.55-0.95 -> 1.55
Medium: 1.55 -> 2.1
Heavy: 2.1 -> 3.1

THESE TTKS ARE ASSUMING YOU HIT EVERY SINGLE HIT BUT IF YOU MISS ONE MELEE, YOU ARE DEAD

But balancing shouldn't only revolve around what high elo players can or can't counter. If everyone else in low elo thinks it's unfun to play against and doesn't wanna play the game, then it's objectively bad for the game to have the weapon at its current state. I'm not saying sword couldn't be countered, ofc it could, but from the looks of it many people were frustrated with it. So fine, nerf it. It's the same in other games. If the majority of the playerbase does not enjoy something, at some point the devs have to listen or the actual playerbase will begin quitting or playing less.

dusty river

damn did you guys really have to nerf sword to appease the reddit idiots? are you just going to nerf whatever the reddit echochamber clings onto next? Sword was ok for five full seasons and the second stun is gone the idiots just searched for the next thing to complain.
and what a nerf this is. now you essentially have to hit qm on every lunge to get anything out of it. The ttk of the sword has to be the highest in the game right now.
edit: wait embark nerfed the sword for the light players? wtf? most people complaining were mediums or heavies. light is the class that has the easiest answer to sword. any of the cqb guns of light could easily deal with a sword player if spotted. ttk light vs light is so low that fights are mostly about effective dodging and who is seeing who first. imho as someone that dabbles in sword light players are usually the most dangerous opponents.

To weaken my beloved longsword and reduce it to uselessness is truly the height of folly!

May aswell chuck my 2 pence in but sword was NEVER op agains LIGHTS only mediums could complain. The combo against lights was the only thing that made sword viable. The nerf should have been 110 or 120 damage, also the weapon was basically ghosted when they nerfed the hitbox because it made it really inconsistent why not just revert the hitbox sweep to 30cm?? That made it require accurate hits

[World tour]
World tour point system needs a rework, getting 6 points for getting into round 2 is insane.

Realistically getting 3rd in round 1 should net you 3 points then second and first should be 5 points
Second round 3rd place should get 5, second and first should net you 10(these all stack with the finals round results) winning final should net you 30 points losing should net you 20

so all in all in round one you come 1st you get 5 points, in round 2 you come first again you get 15 and in the final if you win you get 45 points. ATM the point system just feels meh this is me spitballing btw if you've got better solutions i would love to here it.

[Ranked/Cashout]
Would love to see some improvements in cashout and eventually ranked i feel like if you plug it in and hold it the money should gradually be given to you this will lessen the blow of 3rd parties and we can remove this plug meta its just a thought but i do feel like cashout needs something new its current system is meh imo
Would love to see a system in ruby lobbies/diamond lobbies where placing third makes it so you dont lose any rp so it just gives +0 this would alleviate some pain in losing hours of ranked points in 1 match.

[Light]
Xp didn't need a damage increase
Sword nerfs were a bit aggressive (i understand its not perminant but thank you for adjusting it) feel like the dmg could of been brought to 110 or 115 but hey im enjoy my sword free world for now
Invis is next to impossible to see in the nighttime setting (not a balance suggestion more of a compliant)

[Heavy]
minigun feels like it needs just a slight accuracy cone buff
Feels like winch didn't need the range buff it was already strong as is(reverting the range would be ideal)
Ks23 needs better hip fire

[Medium]
Cerberus is very unique it should have its fire damage be the brunt of its damage, every pellet should start fire damage but its overall pellet damage (that isn't from be fire) should be nerfed probably round to less than the model so 10 per pellet whilst making the fire damage do 20 the first shot then 35 then 50 to offset the lose of immediate damage give it a few extra meters of range
Famas might need a slight recoil adjustment to make it less easy (currently the best ar by a mile) and/or a damage nerf

Additionally would love for clubs to be expanded upon, we have contracts for clubs i would love to see a leveling system giving players a unique cosmetic for reaching certain clan levels, club contracts aren't the only thing that should level the club up playing and winning with club mates should increase rank (not as much as the contracts but should still impact the level)

Might just be me but playing light without stun gun has been great as it frees up an extra slot and makes it so i can experiment with other gadgets without feeling like a big detriment to my team play (would love for it to either be not a guaranteed pick for high level lights kit or removed completely) i feel this way about defibs as well as they trivialize resing and fights most of the time plus them and movement are instant picks for mediums kits in high level.

Any fixes for the no sprint no shoot and constant sonar bug in the works ?

If you have any better suggestion about any of the changes I brought up id love to hear them 🙂

round hornet
# noble helm But balancing shouldn't **only** revolve around what high elo players can or can...

The problem is that the frustration with sword (and light in general) is not the weapon itself. Sword synergizes massively with dash, which is a terribly designed specialization. It's entirely a skill check for tracking, and whether or not you pass determines if you get trounced or if the opposing light can even play the game. M11 is another weapon that catches a ton of shit despite being perfectly balanced, because it synergizes with dash.

If you redesigned dash to actually rely on the skill of the player using it there would be absolutely no need to nerf sword.

There's a certain level of catharsis when it comes to the sword nerf.
Is it too much? Probably. But most sword players gloated and rubbed in every nerf I suffered as a Medium, and every nerf that Heavies suffered, for the last three seasons.
So I can't feel too bad. Your turn to suffer, my friends.

This would add more chaos and planning into the game

Dear Embark,

The Sword is one of the highest skill-cap weapons in the game — this nerf feels like it’s catering to a loud minority of players who don’t know how to counter it. There is a reason there are not a lot of sword lights in high elo ranked gameplay....

Most of us who actually use it know how often we get deleted by SMG dash-spammers, glitch grenades / mines, winches, and anything with range. The skill required to make Sword work is MUCH higher than people give it credit for.

“Over time, we’ve been trying to reduce the potential for one-shots…”

Okay — but then why is the SH1900 still untouched? Especially after the Cloak buff, people are just running around one-shotting with a shotgun that takes 1% of the brain power and skill the Sword does.

And let’s be real — even without the Stun Gun, Light players are STILL running around absolutely SHREDDING with the XP54 and M11. It’s made barely any difference.

Going from 140 to 105 is massive. Now it takes FOUR lunges to kill a Heavy. FOUR. When you only have three dashes, and you're already being lasered the whole time. That’s if it’s even a clean 1v1, which most fights aren’t. This just makes Sword feel completely unrewarding, even when played perfectly.

This has made the Sword completely unviable as a weapon you can win a 1v1 with.

Please revisit this change and consider bumping the damage slightly — or adjust it in a way that keeps Sword’s identity intact without making it too oppressive for inexperienced players.

I do not understand. Sword is a puny toothpick now. I used to play Sword in like S1 and S2, but switched to different weapons now. It can be frustrating if the Swordplayer is good. But it was always a fair fight with them, at least imo, either they get me first or the other way around.
When I play XP or M11 I need to hit my shots so they can’t even get close, they need to get the jump on me, which means I messed up on my awareness imo.
I get a nerf but this is overdoing it.
Meanwhile Cerberus needs to be monitored still, instead of hitting the nerf button as well. CL40 should not have been buffed either imo.
When it comes to oneshots does that mean things like @tropic merlin mentioned are next? Idk about the others but that sounds incredibly boring and will probably ruin all of those weapons just like Sword.

#

The irony of nerfing one of the best counters to Light, to appease people who hate Light under the guise of helping Lights is pure comedy. TK can one shot Lights. DB can not only one shot Lights, it two taps everything in the game. I won’t even start on the ICBM that is hammer. Embark needs to call a spade a spade and stop pretending they nerfed sword to appease other Lights. They just removed sword basically and it’s perfectly fine because people hate it, (some of the same people who stomp through servers day after day with meta weapons season after season) but if they made hammer, or flamethrower or any other weapon a niche following enjoys, absolutely useless, the community would lose their minds. Here’s a thought, bring back the gadget you completely removed from the game that allowed Lights to hard counter. Sword Lights. Again, if they completely removed something like lockbolt, the community would lose their minds but since it’s a Light gadget it’s fine. Light stays getting two tapped or delete by half the weapons in the game but sword needed to be butchered I guess. 😭😂

# south mauve Dear Embark, The Sword is one of the highest skill-cap weapons in the game — th...

Dear Maczook,

Completely agree. As someone who rarely uses sword these days anyway (yet have faced sword users many times in the past) the weapon was mostly well balanced. The fact light players seem to have the biggest issue with nowadays is frankly maddening to me when I know that many sword users refused to use the weapon against them due to their movement. Clearly the stun gun was giving them way too much of a crutch as there's a near infinite number of weapons and gadgets that could delete even the most savvy sword user. To reduce the sword's ability to one shot light when, as you yourself have said, the SH1900 remains untouched, is undeniably a criminal decision by Embark.

I would also like to add some further, perhaps more scathing comments, but reality checks I think are needed:

The fact is this server has almost 500,000 members and of them I only see hundreds of comments complaining about sword every day. That's roughly 1%, and some of these may well be repeats every few hours. I recently lost a 2v1 to a single sword light, only dealing 30 damage to him. While this may be used as evidence to suggested the overpoweredness of the sword, the fact was that my aim was just bad. Once you get past the panic of a small guy dashing at you with a sword, it's not impossible to kill with solid play. While I can't expect casuals to play with perfect aim there at least needs to be an impetus on players to learn how to aim, since it's a key component of a gun game.

Absolutely it shouldn't be oppressive to inexperienced players, and to this end I would recommend a few possible solutions to nerf the sword, albeit perhaps more passively.

• Remove phantom hits and other unorthodox techniques.
• Make the sword also employ QM with lunge to kill.
• Change up sword/smoke synergy.

And most importantly:

• Give all weapon/gadget/spec in the game a video explaining what each does and how to use them
• Give descriptions of what each is good/bad against to create counterplay.

yeah but its not just the swords. its mostly completely unjustified complaining abt completely balanced weapons/underpowered weapons.

but ill be real. swords hit reg is dumb. its what most ppl are complaining abt. that uusually ur not even hitting the player and still the player takes damage.

ive tested out the sword in practice range, and with the evasive dash the sword has hit people that were not in range. evas dash sword exploit is the reason why theyre complaining so much. with evas dash you just have to flick left and right without any precise aim after u do the lunge attack with the evas dash, to dish out damage. becuase it takes huge unfair advantage of desync and whatnot.

its dumb because this way theyre not taking much skill other than closing the gap on their opponents. and pls, the sword should NOT be better at crowd control than flamethrower.

and sword IS bad at long range obv, but ususally when ur defending ur cashout or vault, unless ur in kyoto theres a lot of tight spaces that gives the swords an advantage.

Edit: oh wait they nerfed sword in the latest patch? nvm

Watch the sword completely disappear from usage. Like there's no point in using it at all now. All that's left is to reduce dagger's backstab damange to 140, cause we hate to see oneshot weapons I guess

Gotta revert the sword nerf it was too much of a decrease in damage. It’s useless now and I’ve kinda gotta re learn combos if I wanna still use it. Such a fun weapon before too. BUT HAMMER CAN STILL ONE HIT YA OK

omg guys this update is huuuuuge. ❤️❤️❤️

from a objective view, youve made not one wrong decision.
this is wayyy better than it sounds (seriously)

from my personal view:

YOU GUYS HAVE HEARED MY PRAYERS about sniper wobble.

the weapon still needs work, but this is a huuuuge change for me thank you very much (havent tried it yet)

so one more time::::

i main sniper and need to hit headshot bodyshot with lower firerte than the dude that can kill me with 2 bodyshots at the same range in 90% of all scenarios. hilarious sewriously.
also whats the point of movement utility if i cant even tank one shot?

pls at least give the sniper 100% in air accuracy (like bow) and shorten the time to ads (i know its already very short but its holding the weapon back so bad its terrible). and less wobble while sliding i beg you you could make the gfasmeplay so fckn smooth it would generate a ton of new players 100%
ps: bow has no ads time at all with zero drawbacks

also tdm is great. would love to see a gamemode (maybe also tdm but with only 2 players per team)

in case you think „but bow has bulletdrop“, doenst matter at all bc fights happen in between 30m of range in this game (95% of the time)

bro what are you talking about cloak buff? cloak just got nerfed. its not even a cloak anymore. people can still see you past 20m. also sh1900 is shit as long as cerberus still exists. once they nerf cerberus, then they can deal w sh1900 (but at the same time how much can they nerf the db without making it completely useless the least they can probably nerf the damage is just very slightly to the point where you would need to follow up 2 shots on a heavy w a melee to kill. and i hate the complaining about getting shredded by m11 and xp5 as if light doesn't get deleted by M and H even faster

Bet you they finally checked the statistics and found out sword is just faceroll op for ppl that cant aim.
Can't win with sword anymore cuz its been balanced? Maybe than it's time to finally pick up a diff weapon.

As a sword main I do agree it needed to be nerfed though not in this way I believe sword is about positioning and outplaying your opponent, but with that amount of damage being taken away makes it near useless even if you do get the jump on your enemies, if your opponent has half decent aim they could easily mow you down or in the case of other lights just dash away. The fact that xp-54 didn’t even get slightly modified is baffling I’m tired of playing 5v5 light matches where everyone is using the xp-54 and dash because it’s the very obvious meta and over powered even against sword users prior to the patch. If anything is the issue I think dash needs to be modified as that’s what made the sword “overpowered” to begin with and still allows xp-54 users to be as strong as they are.

# distant ember Grapple does need a buff, but the problem isn't dash. They're trying to make the...

Nah, I play light a lot. The problem is definitely on "DASH", this specialize just genuinely too good on every situation and every weapon. Dash can combine with dagger and is also broken just much more hard to learn, BUT all the melee weapon include SWORD with invis or grapple is total trash. And of course most of the GUNS player also choose DASH more than other specialize. You see the problem here? DASH gives you "combat movement" "escape chance". Everything you need in the game to improve direct combat skill if you are not that good is all on DASH. Even they nerf DASH to longer CD twice as much than now people still ganna choose it but not grapple. It is just a sad fact that this specialize is broken and too good in everyway for light class. ""ALL melee weapon itself should really not be nerf cause is already too weak by counter by LOCK BOLT, STUN GUN, VORTAX or any gadget in the future can restrict character, and worse light on melee even get counter by everything that can glitch you. none of these gadget is over power to any long range weapon, only melee weapon is dead counter by these. If you don't want people to play melee weapon you should just remove it but not let it unplayable. All Melee weapon has already had a disadvantage cause they are "MELEE", of course they should be more powerful in there own range. "It just happens that DASH brings melee weapon a easy way to get in there range" PEOPLE WHO ABUSED SWORD BEFORE WILL JUST MOVE ON TO DAGGER AND STILL ONE SHOT YOU. WHAT IS NEXT? MAKE DAGGER BACK STAB 105 DAMAGE ONLY? HOW ABOUT JUST REMOVE ALL THESE MELEE WEAPON? The problem is on """DASH"""

Although sword was probably overly nerfed, people need to stop with these garbage talking points saying that sword is the "highest skill" weapon to use, sword was the easiest melee weapon to play with in this game, and takes way less effort to be effective with compared to Sledge, Spear, Dagger, Dual Blades, and Riot Shield.

@sharp hollow I can't speak from controller perspective, but on KBM sword is easy to use, it already is so jarring to be on the receiving end of sword but it is probably impossible for controller players to fight back against it, sword literally had an effective melee range of 12m+ with dash which made it so much easier to use compared to true melee weapons with far more limited range.

Sword has no range, if you play in to their hands than you will lose. Use your brain, keep distance.

Interesting how so many people complain about a weapon that is fun and supposed to be strong close quarters.

As a light bow main, I have never had an issue fighting sword players. You guys just complain because you die to something thats not a gun and your egos cant handle being outplayed.

Sword not being able to combo lights is an outrageous change, light is meant to be a glass cannon, what’s the point of playing a melee weapon if you finally get in distance just to basically instakilled the same way by sniper, bow, db, m26, throwing knives, dagger etc, not to mention if sledge or sa lands winch it’s just gg

edit: Sword being able to combo lights was never the problem, the real problem was being able to 2 hit a full hp team of mediums, nerf multhit so that it does around 30% less damage per target and bring the damage back up to something reasonable

The CB-01 repeater still has a mistimed animation for when you can melee after shooting, causing it to rechamber despite finishing the animation.

It takes 13 shots to destroy a zipline and 17 to destroy a tree. And in certain areas, the smoke that comes up from shooting the repeater is way too opaque to see through this blinding you in certain instances.

Sword nerf: extremely uncommon Embark W. MY FAITH IN THE GAME HAS BEEN SLIGHTLY RESTORED!

spare harness
#

Sword nerf is hamfisted and destroys the breakpoints needed for it to be viable against skilled players. Better solutions need to be found to sate the crowd that finds it "unfair", like nerfing damage on multi-hits ( or subsequent hits) , altering the quick-melee on light or buffing quick-melee for other classes. Phantom slashing and gadget swap cancels should be removed as well.

Alternatively the damage to the lunge could progressively be charged to hit the old breakpoints ( If held for double the time it takes to charge a normal lunge). This would force the sword into a more ambush style of play , and limits the damage a light can do by charging from a large distance away.

Another option could be to add in a vital/non-vital hit system which dictates damage dealt. Firearms already calculate whether a shot's on the head or the rest of the body and applies the appropriate multiplier, I'm certain it would reduce the beyblade spin-to win charging since you need to slice at particular angles for optimal damage. This would also give medium players the option to duck or slide under the blade to avoid the higher damage blow.

A "honing" mechanic could be added where the weapon dulls and gets damaged debuffed on consecutive hits, until it's restored via the reload button. Have that animation hinder movement so the light can't do it mid-skirmish without a cost. The weapon could dull significantly more for hitting terrain/riot shields which encourages less flailing around and more surgical lunges.

Make the sword more skilled/situational to use optimally or create damage methods that allow for player interactivity. Do not gut the damage to the point that it takes every resource available to do less damage with more risk.

Hello. I really enjoy playing The Finals and would like to give some feedback. I'm specifically interested in two points, and I hope they're working on changing or improving them.

Point 1:
Casual matchmaking.

The casual matchmaking for fast cash/DM and the like needs to be changed. Matching level 1 players with level 80 in the same round is absolutely not a good thing, and especially negative for new players and the new player experience. There needs to be a level cap, where new players up to that level are only matched with other low-level players. (Level 20 would be my suggestion.)

Point 2:
Clothing

We have a pretty cool and detailed system for creating our outfits in The Finals. However, the colors are really limited, as each outfit has fixed colors.
And that's not very positive, especially since some outfits could be combined really nicely, if it weren't for the color difference. A very current example is the red cap, which is the only cap worn backwards. It's actually really nice. But because it's red, it's difficult to integrate into outfits.

It would be great if there was a way to buy newly dyed outfits or color palettes.

This could be done partly through the in-game shop, partly through events, and partly for real money purchases, like Warframe.

Especially if you've been playing for a while and have all the weapons and gadgets, then the money is practically useless until the next update.

That would give the in-game currency more value and extend its direct use.

I hope I was clear.

I wish everyone a good fight.

I very strongly oppose the sword nerf. I knew the most reasonable way to nerf it whould be by reducing the secondary's damage, but you have to increase the damage of the other two attacks as well! I was gonna suggest making the lunge do 124 so you cant just get two lucky haymakers on mediums anymore. as for the lights, as a sword main with 300 hours its actually extremely difficult to hit a "one shot" on a light. you literally have to catch them by surprise, in which case its a skill issue. if they see you coming and they have dash, the chances of your quick melee actually landing is so low. I hit lights with double luinge more often than I quick melee them. I do my best to complete every battle pass and I get a starter kit at the beginning of every season, but this might unironically make me and a lot of other sword mains quit playing alltogether.

Sword is, with this patch, now unironically the single worst weapon in the game. Not only is it a melee weapon on Light, it’s one that just literally lost every single usable breakpoint.

Combos not listed are too slow to win in a fight versus weapons piloted by enemies that aren’t AFK/Practice Range bots:

Sword Breakpoints vs Light:

  • Lunge + Quick Melee = Has to be at least 110

Sword Breakpoints vs Medium:

  • Lunge + Lunge = Has to be at least 125
  • Lunge + Quick Melee + Primary = Has to be at least 136

Sword Breakpoints vs Heavy:

  • Lunge + Lunge + Lunge = Has to be at least 117
  • Lunge + Quick Melee + Lunge + Quick Melee = Has to be at least 135
  • Lunge + Lunge + Primary = Has to be at least 138

Congratulations on once again, listening to stupid fucking Discord and Reddit shitters and a literal piece of shit stuck up prick of a content creator that intentionally and knowingly abused their influence for the sole purpose of LITERALLY violating Discord terms of service to encourage active brigading.

This is unironically the single fucking stupidest balance change you have ever put out.

First, we got Model 1887 take us down
Then Data reshaper, which doesn't make sense because it was very down used, I loved to switch cannisters in bank it to use it as my wish, now I have to rely on what canister I have on my sight and then switch it 1-2 times
Then Grenades, which is fair to be honest
Then they took us Bank it, which doesn't make any sense, only if they're going to revamp it, which they're not clear about what they're doing with that rather than "It's gone, poof"
Then sword, that doesn't make sense, since I HAD TO MASTER IT for more than 100 hours in this game, which, learning to aim takes less, helps in most games, and also it works in every weapons rather than melees
Sword WAS a new whole way to play, now to rely on left click seems very dumb, I know it was broken in the right hands
But THERE WAS COUNTERS TO IT, glitch trap, mines, glitch grenade, goo weapon from heavy, turrets, (back then) stun gun, Two barrel shotgun (I don't have to explain it more further), even the dashes on Light could counter it (If sword doesn't have more dashes, and the other player knows how to move, then it's pretty difficult to win the fight against 1s ttk weapons like v9s), Heavy spear with M2 (Yes, it was a counter, and a very hard one, since it's impossible to not win againt a Light with that), claw, even the nerfed without reason panic button charge n' slam, and even the new minigun
I particullary feel that every thing that I mentioned that counters the sword is okay, it's good

Now sword feels and IS a meme

Why embark does change to weapons that aren't even meta

When they have cerberus which is basically a sword lunge + automatic quick melee to Lights?

People are happy about this changes, they're celebrating the tears over 3 sword mains, I cannot be more happier for them, now they don't have to learn how to aim

The grapple hook keeps pulling u in a wall unless u cancel it but it would be better if u could stick to walls for a few seconds and u can aim and shoot but it's for a limited time to avoid camping,maybe even a wall jump from the wall u grappling to
The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use,make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

Ks23 needs a headshot buff 1.2x,wall penetration and NO bullet deviation.

Sword was the weakest against light players even with the near instant kill potential it had. This nerf seems to hurt the worst against light players, making them even worse for a sword to deal with. I do not think this was a healthy approach.

Sledge is balanced. There’s enough to do against it and sledge cant dash or boost into enemies like with sword.

Keep it untouched because its not strong nor weak. One touch to it and it’s instantly unplayable and weak tho.

Same with sword. Maybe nerfs in other ways were better but whatever. Stun incoming soon and then reconsider what to do.

I see an influx of people saying sledge is OP now but it isn’t.

Its rock paper sciccors and any pick has a proper counterpick. With sledge you have many options to play around it and beat it.

So Embark. Dont always listen to balancing feedback, keep in mind how many counters and weaknesses a weapon has, sledge had many and is barely picked in high elo for a reason.

Keep it up💪🏼

@paper panther Agreed fully. Either nerf the sword range or wind-up-time or nerf dash. The damage tho? Ehhhh. Idk. I dont like it’s nerfed to the ground like overwatch made some characters unplayable for a season. Smaller nerfs/nudges are better imo.

Also agree on ur second edit. Sword had enough counters. I usually put barricades up so they dash into the barricade and my team shot the staggered light. People need to learn to play against swords @paper panther lowkey sometimes feel like the game devs should make more videos on countering niche weapons or the community just needs to show more tutorial’s on how to deal with shit.

the snuke skin is incredible

paper panther
# royal gust Sledge is balanced. There’s enough to do against it and sledge cant dash or boos...

You just said it yourself, the issue isnt the sword its the dash

@royal gust exactly

But even without nerfs there were plenty counters to the sword dashers and MOST OF THEM stop the lights momentum allowing you to kill them easier. Like ALOT. The rest keep the light away from you

Glitch mines, glitch grenade, goo grenade, explosive mine, fire mine, fire grenade, gas mine, gas grenade, gas barrel. And that's just a few

If youre worried about the light being able to hit multiple people with one lunge, THEN DONT GROP UP CLOSE TOGETHER.

And if youre worried about one shots, then there are plenty of others in the game that take less if not EQUAL skill to the sword

1 Double barrel shot, matter with a quick melee, model with a qm, sledge heavy attack

Seeing a lot of people that are complaining about the sword getting nerfed too much. Haven't had a chance to try it yet but even if it is too underpowered now, you can still try a different weapon. Light has some of the highest dps as far as I know and it wouldn't kill everybody to pick something a little different instead of dashing around with sword for 20 minutes and calling it gameplay.

If sword needs a nerf; consider making quick melee AGAINST IT more powerful somehow; maybe a counter-timed qm could have a knockback & small damage increase against sword. Or a sidestep mechanic like (quick melee counter+L/R movement = half a model sidestep & graze damage). Don't make the game easier to play, make people learn it better. Also some sort of shotgun/knockback/close range confetti-pop gadget could do. Lunge does unrealistic damage still at the end of it, when it's decelerated to almost a halt. You can make buggy kind of plays with that, agreed. Damage-wise it should be a curve, with a sweetspot in the middle = higher skill ceiling. Also mid-lunge mouse sensitivity should be decreased a lot, so that it's less maneuverable than now (while still being maneuverable to a degree). SH is going to need a nerf soon too, because it is already fully viable & powerful counter to sword, now it's probably overpowering.
Btw Charge & Slam is ridiculous against the sword, if they collide with a lunge, the lunge ends up doing 0 damage and even a small nudge from the C&S destroys the sword. Very unrealistic and unintuitive, BUT perhaps balance-wise this is a good counter.
Thanks❣️

[World tour]
World tour point system needs a rework, getting 6 points for getting into round 2 is insane.

Realistically getting 3rd in round 1 should net you 3 points then second and first should be 5 points
Second round 3rd place should get 5, second and first should net you 10(these all stack with the finals round results) winning final should net you 30 points losing should net you 20

so all in all in round one you come 1st you get 5 points, in round 2 you come first again you get 15 and in the final if you win you get 45 points. ATM the point system just feels meh this is me spitballing btw if you've got better solutions i would love to here it.

[Ranked/Cashout]
Would love to see some improvements in cashout and eventually ranked i feel like if you plug it in and hold it the money should gradually be given to you this will lessen the blow of 3rd parties and we can remove this plug meta its just a thought but i do feel like cashout needs something new its current system is meh imo
Would love to see a system in ruby lobbies/diamond lobbies where placing third makes it so you dont lose any rp so it just gives +0 this would alleviate some pain in losing hours of ranked points in 1 match.

[Light]
Xp didn't need a damage increase
Sword nerfs were a bit aggressive (i understand its not perminant but thank you for adjusting it) feel like the dmg could of been brought to 110 or 115 but hey im enjoy my sword free world for now
Invis is next to impossible to see in the nighttime setting (not a balance suggestion more of a compliant)

[Heavy]
minigun feels like it needs just a slight accuracy cone buff
Feels like winch didn't need the range buff it was already strong as is(reverting the range would be ideal)
Ks23 needs better hip fire

[Medium]
Cerberus is very unique it should have its fire damage be the brunt of its damage, every pellet should start fire damage but its overall pellet damage (that isn't from be fire) should be nerfed probably round to less than the model so 10 per pellet whilst making the fire damage do 20 the first shot then 35 then 50 to offset the lose of immediate damage give it a few extra meters of range
Famas might need a slight recoil adjustment to make it less easy (currently the best ar by a mile) and/or a damage nerf

Additionally would love for clubs to be expanded upon, we have contracts for clubs i would love to see a leveling system giving players a unique cosmetic for reaching certain clan levels, club contracts aren't the only thing that should level the club up playing and winning with club mates should increase rank (not as much as the contracts but should still impact the level)

Might just be me but playing light without stun gun has been great as it frees up an extra slot and makes it so i can experiment with other gadgets without feeling like a big detriment to my team play (would love for it to either be not a guaranteed pick for high level lights kit or removed completely) i feel this way about defibs as well as they trivialize resing and fights most of the time plus them and movement are instant picks for mediums kits in high level.

Creator cosmetics and or charms would be a cool thing to add to the game

Any fixes for the no sprint no shoot and constant sonar bug in the works ?

If you have any better suggestion about any of the changes I brought up id love to hear them 🙂

Why does the limited-time mode have to be played in the form of forcing players to play loadouts, body types, and skins that they don't like? I've been playing the game since S1 and I've reached 1,200 hours of gameplay now, but I never play an extra round after I've completed a mission in limited-time mode.

On the sword nerf:
Bring sword lunge range buff back to compensate! I'd like to use it as an opener and gap closer. Makes grapple and stealth a viable alternative!

Edit: Please also enable the lungeforward when in the air. That has always held the other options back.

hurting the weapons ability to perform well in 1v1 encounters when its team damage was the main issue is 1000% the wrong move, especially if you reintroduce stun for lights

Speaking from a sword main yall killed the weapon, to me this proves the finals is an ecosystem, removing stun gun allowed sword players to run wild and embarks solution is to kill the weapon, You need to add rock paper scissors solutions not remove weapons from existence, its going to be like double barrel before 2 shot KO this is a massive middle finger to any players that invested serious time into the weapon trying to master the weapon (as easy as it looks sword actually requires alot of skill thats why every team doesnt have a sword player)

5 ways to nerf sword that are actually nerfs and not just a borderline removal of the weapon (like reducing its damage to 105) from someone that actually uses the weapon
1: remove multihit
2: limit how much you can turn during a lunge (anything from 30 to 180 degrees would probably be fine)
3: reduce the hitbox length SLIGHTLY (about 15cm, not 55cm like last time)
4: shorten the amount of time the hitbox is active (its still up for a while even when the lunge has stopped)
5: add a cooldown between hitting someone with a lunge and quick meleeing (it would kill the lunge+qm x2 combo on heavy but im willing to sacrifice it)

I'm starting to thing that the devs are balancing the game based on what the community wants rather than what's best for the game:

We nerfed things that barely anybody uses anymore because of the wrong reasons:
-Nerfed dagger backstab angle when it was a server latency issue, and when the reddit community used fake evidence to complain about it
-Nerfed data reshaper because it was "too effective at countering turret", one of the weakest specializations in the game already
-Nerfed THE ENTIRE MAIN WEAPON of sword when it was perfectly stable and had plenty of counterplay options, outside of a couple of needed bug fixes. The community was just too stupid to learn the counterplay because this is a rare occasion of melee getting good stats in a shooter game

Not only am I disappointed with this patch, I'm disappointed how game balance is becoming too political because of how swayable the devs seem to be nowadays.

I really do miss the good patches in the early seasons of the game, thanks for ruining that entirely.

Please don’t nerf the famas! It’s balanced where it is 😢 thank you so much for nerfing the sword! If my feedback is worth anything, I would suggest lowering the secondary attack to 104 instead of 105. This will make it so that the secondary dash will need to be accompanied by 2 quick melees instead of just 1. Thank you for always bringing such meaningful and exciting updates to the game!

sword was literally fine. I could do well because I learned how to use it. It was fine for it to 2 tap lights with a qm, you know how many other things in this game do that? i play light, so i would know! BASICALLY EVERYTHING. if you're upset by others' ttk on you being very low stop playing light.

I support the suggestion another sword main made to give thrust a sweet spot that has its max damage and parts with minimal damage. It's ideal, bc that will mean most sword lights won't be instakilling anyone, but people who put in the time to learn will still have a powerful option, with positioning being very important to learn for opponents and users alike.

I dont understand how skill requiremnt keeps gettiing removed, we cry about sword cause we refuse to counter it, sĂł we cry and beg for a Nerf, and Guess what embark as always needs to follow the majority, so we completly kill the sword, meanwhile theres weapon like cerb killing lighhts with 1 shot, idk anymore, this game balance is completly around what people want and not what the game needs, it seems like sword was the most broken thing in the game, and was a skilless weapon, idk if everyone Saw it but on prohubs there was a sword on final round who got completly stomped cause Guess what they knew how to counter sword, and make it completly useless, but i get it we need to make the game play able for people with less iq, anyways keep removing skill requirement and keep listenning what people say, also why partnered people can exploit and teach and promote how to do it on videos and not get punished and non partnered people cant?

This stupid for nerf damage it only make sword unplayable in high rank. All sword player would go play casual and make noobs keep crying.

dear embark ... these sword changes are so brainless, i can't believe it, the real problem with this whole issue, that this weapon is so strong, is simply the dashes and the knuckle hits in the dashes, now you've destroyed the whole weapon and nobody plays sword until you buff them again and again. It's always the same with your game changes! here is a suggestion: disable knuckle hits if a class is playing melee weapons, there's no need for this, so they have to use there normal left and right clicks and one shots are disabled, or/and nerf these dashes to weaken the other overly strong weapons a bit like double barrel etc. dashes are the reason why these mechanic are so strong.

The most stupid and unnecessary nerf in history. Once again devs showing their incompetence in balancing cose just adjusting damage numbers IS NEVER the main problem. So, congratulations 👏, now you have people who will still whining about sword because in their perspective nothing will change and other people who's maining sword now will start whining about this nerf.

I dagger main myself, and i can see correlation with it - dagger was nerfed just like sword because of casuals and after literally everybody telling them for the whole season about how unnecessary and stupid it was - they buffed damage xd.

I understand that it's hard to be unique this time, but after each patch game becoming more and more "common" shooter and loosing it's identity. Without it in this game will nothing left besides cool skins. Very upsetting embark, do something with your balancing team already they are gonna destroy this game very soon. #NerfBalancingTeam

i currently have 400 hours only on sword, this was the way i enjoyed the game.
The only way. i think it was good balanced before the patch, i mean, it's a sword against guns, of course we need some fun like instant kill on light, just one mistake and they kill us.
Right now I'm just depressed, playing sword now feel really frustrating, I'm sad, really sad, and i don't want to play anymore.
a lot of nerfs on other weapon would have been way better, but sword ?
Not a lot of players use it, of course, there's guns, so why play a piece of metal on a stick ?
it was the worst nerf possible.
thanks for reading my last will.
please consider my frustration, my sadness and my love to the old sword we all beloved.

Make the full block for riot shield better. As it stands in almost every fight you’re at a disadvantage if you ever use full block. The fact that you’re stopped to a crawl when you full block is dumb. If I’ll be that slow that just makes it so my feet are blocked too. I’d understand if the shield was faster moving in full block and it would a valid weakness to get shot in the feet but it isn’t. It’s slow as shit. Riot mains rarely use full block and bishopping is 100 times way better and basically does full block better than full block does full block 😭.

It’s a waste of a mechanic. It doesn’t even fully block melee attacks. You literally have a better chance at blocking melee with bishopping than full blocking. Oh and the fact that full block doesn’t allow you to body block for teammates because you’ll interrupt their steal. Sure you can use it to interrupt enemy cash out steals but when’s the last time you’ve seen a player not stick their bodies up against the cash out. And as you know. You can’t walk into a player if they’re not your teammate. It’s a completely useless mechanic that hurts more than it helps. Please just take another look at the riot shield.

All you do is complain to your community to make your life easier as a medium having no regard for any one else who plays this game is pathetic and then suck up to the devs so you get in there good graces so that further down the line when someone kills you with a weapon that’s gives them a fighting chance and you think it’s unfair cus you “shouldn’t be dying” so then your class has even more dominance over the player base and everyone else is left dealing with these shitty nerfs all because you couldn’t counter a melee weapon at tip touching range

Im not that upset about the sword nerf as I kinda knew it was coming, because of all the cries from people. What I am upset about is that now there are gonna be more sword players switching to other gun and going super sweaty to where people are gonna complain about the gun that they are gonna end up using such as the Bow, SH1900, XP, SR, and Throwing knives. This intern will make people cry about those weapon leading to them getting either reworked or nerfed. I dont know about you but I would rather go up against a sword than any other gun that I listed.

the most absurd nerf in the world, by the way
, modeled the sword so that you couldn't kill with a sword + light hand attack

It 's absurd , considering that Light can easily handle a sword .
But they made it so that the mid would die in 2 times anyway.
Well, maybe hand attack needs to be cast, but the type for the mid almost nothing changes
It's the same with Heavy.
3 times as before
PLUS a hand attack
, I was yelling out loud when I was calculating the numbers.
Everything is damn for light
No, well, no doubt, now you won't take away a crowd of mids, but in any case, the nerf is aimed solely at ensuring that a light with a sword does not counter a light with xp54
What for? He knows he knows
AND moreover, they WRITE THAT THE LIGHTS ARE FRUSTRATED BECAUSE THEIR LIGHT IS VANSHOTIT.
AHAHAHAHAH
I don't play heavy damn rinks without this frustration against the Lights.
But they don't care
I don't seem to be the target audience of the game.

Can the Dual Blades have a bigger angle of deflection? Currently the Dual blades can reflect bullets really only if the user is aiming directly back at the enemy(only about 15% of your display). I would like it so that you could riccochet bullets towards other enemies so you could get funny kills deflect kills by proxy of enemies allies. I would also think it would be cool if Dual blades can deflect ally bullets, effectively allowing your allies to shoot around corners using you. Similarly in Titanfall 2, the titan Ion can collect ally bullets for a strong burst damage option.
Something I also would like, when you parry a melee attack you get a special blade counter that comes out quicker and has a very small activation window it only deals 50 damage. This is so that blocking a melee attack can be rewarding since blocking melee attacks can be quite inconsistent.

(1/2)
Hi, id like to out myself as a sword main myself. I don’t feel that guilty about it since it’s funny to see people react to that information. As a person who played the sword since season 1 and practice the combos and techniques - id like to call myself competitively competent with the weapon and have taken it into world tour and ranked with success here and there.
I’d also like to say im not one to post about these kinda things so please keep that in mind; but id like to comment on the most recent sword change.

I’d like to gather my thoughts into some categories to help my brain dump what im trying to say - starting with Competitive Viability.

when talking about ranked or world tour, the finals is fairly open to different weapons outside of the meta being able to shine and secure wins - though there’s always the safe/meta options that tend to secure wins more consistently.
The sword was definitely always off meta. It was always in this weird “you can use it but be good at higher ranks” tier that personally drove me to try harder against those who will fundamentally laser me down if im not careful. And while yes using a sword is always going to be easier than aiming, especially when you take into account the lingering hit box; and paired with dash, it definitely was safe to use the sword in quick play games or lower ranked WT and comp. But as you play higher and higher ranks, you realize how disadvantaged you are when up against people who understand the game far more than the normal player base. Using general counters like glitch traps, turrets, or just teams blasting me with bullets and coordination if I don’t make careful decisions during the match.
These aren’t hard counters obviously, but in general they do make the higher ranked games more challenging - which is definitely desired on my end at least because I love to push myself. But the damage nerfs make that already present disadvantage that much greater when now I have to go in with a weaker blade in a gun fight.

But speaking on entering a gun fight, id like to compare some other weapons in said fight that players apparently have little issue with - at least not as loud as swords hate.
The prime example id like to bring up is double barrel. I’d like to make a general comparison t between double barrel and sword as their play styles are honestly quite similar, tho obviously not 1:1. If you want to be viable with the DB, you want to be up close, that way you do the max damage to your enemy. Similar to the sword, where you HAVE to be up close to do any damage, but high bursts of damage to the enemies once you land a hit. Obviously there’s huge differences like requiring to aim and ammo, but for now bear with me here.
The complaint of the “1-shot” with the sword strategy with the right click + melee on lights is the main focus on the nerf. And while yes, it isn’t hard to perform - not no brain but not hard. DB? It’s an insane amount of damage to any class. I have repeatedly heard my friends on heavy scream at how DB “should not do 351 DMG on a headshot”. Meanwhile, it takes plenty more time to deal with a heavy as a sword.
DB also has much more liberty when it comes to kit: invis, dash, hook… Sword? To be competitively viable, sword NEEDS dash to be able to play against range - and personally I also use vanishing bomb just to help close the gap.
This part definitely sounds much more of a rant, and I feel like I could go on about damage numbers when it comes to other weapons in the light class but id like to not go on for too long. The main point of this comparison is how this sword nerf isn’t “just”, as a weapon like DB still exists and it isn’t even a meta/problematic weapon in Embark’s eyes.

TL;DR - the sword nerf feels unjust and just hurts those who play high rank games. Lights are low health for a reason and should die as easily to the weapons with high damage.

You unleashed pandora's box, now they're be more Shotguns, M26 and SH1900 Light users goodluck (they're much worse opponents than sword, btw). I still consider Sword an Off - Meta Fun Pick and I've been here since BETA and played with experienced players / noobs a like.

# random smelt Im not that upset about the sword nerf as I kinda knew it was coming, because of...

TBH, the Bow and TKs have always been kinda absurd in their own way. Ranged weapons should never get infinite ammo, even less so when they deal the kind of damage per hit these do. Even the worst players can pull off bullshit instant kills spamming them, especially against other Light players.

I'd like to see both get nerfed by a cooldown/reload but buffed on other aspects to keep them usable.

no point in playing this game. in wt you roll everyone, but in ranked at low plat you play only challenging lobbies where it's hard to get to top 4, and even if you manage with a 3 stack met on this discord server and get some points, you instantly lose that on next game. I don't know it just seems that in the current state of spawn system the game can never be really competitive, also the addition of world tour ruined the ranked mode and nobody plays it. just make the ranked one box with one cashbox and 3 teams like quick cash or something, currently it's a mess. I shouldn't be bouncing 10k points up and down again and again, but either slowly losing, gaining, or sitting around the same RS if the ranked system would work properly.

This game was really about creativity at some point, it had a lot of unique weapons and similar. All the fun stuff gets removed, no riding on red canisters, no skill expression with sword. Only thing left in the game is some boring machin gun meta. This game is made more blend and less unique with every patch. The balancing is made for people who dont want to put in time to learn how to counter something. Remove sword at this point, no need to keep it in the game like this, buff/rework it or remove it. If you want to keep the damage nerf maybe buff the lunge by cooldown, animation duration or range.

As a sword main from nearly day one, its sad to see all the skill expression and tech fade away, but if its for the sake of balancing, PLEASE just remove phantom strike (even though its hardly an issue), fix the hitbox during super dashes instead of gutting the damage.

The ranked system works well, you just might have hit your skill-cap and are getting frustrated as a result. If you’re able to consistently positively influence your team, you will slowly climb to diamond. I’ve reached Diamond 3 times now on riot shield entirely solo queue - it’s all about consistency, you’ll bounce up and down a bit but you’ll slowly trend upwards if you are effective

The grapple hook keeps pulling u in a wall unless u cancel it but it would be better if u could stick to walls for a few seconds and u can aim and shoot but it's for a limited time to avoid camping,maybe even a wall jump from the wall u grappling to

The 93r time between burst is weird and not fun to use,make it so there isn't a gap between burst and u can slightly nerf damage since u r increasing fire rate but the damage fall out is longer so there is a balance since due to recoil u can spam it long/medium range.

Add fanning revolver for light with incendiary bullets but they r projectile but hit hard,u can use fanning action to quickly fire bullet.

What an outrageously overtuned nerf to a non-meta weapon that actually made your gameplay distinct from every other point-and-click shooter. I swear you people don't actually play the game and just cater to the whiniest losers in this channel no matter how unfounded their complaints are.

You can't even PRAY to kill any team that has a single healbeam anymore. You could've at least experimented with keeping the same lunge breakpoints by keeping it at least 125 damage, but no, you decided to basically remove the weapon outright unless you're trolling noobs in Quick Cash.

Useless nerf for the sword.
Only noobs would get easily killed or team-wiped by a sword pro smurfing in low-ranked lobbies. High-skill players only die to the sword when they make huge mistakes—like wasting their jump pad, picking a poor weapon to fight against the sword without choosing a counter gadget, or just getting caught off-guard. (Honestly, they’d probably die even faster if they had a bad matchup weapon.)

The sword has clear counters, and any of them can make it completely useless at high ranks.

Now the sword is only useless in high rank, and all sword players either smurf in casual matches or just quit the game.
I can still drop 20 kills in every casual game and let the noobs keep crying.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOD balance.

Some noobs who play RK can't accept that they lose a fight simply because the sword player is better than them. They just go complain in the Feedback and Reddit.
Keep listening to those noobs—or to people who want this game to be boring and anti-diversity.

A lot of content creators, Diamond players, or FPS veterans don't want to learn anything about the unique features of The Finals.
They just want to rely on their aim to dominate everyone and make sure they can easily move on to the next generic FPS.

So sad for the devs.
You created one of the best games since 2020...
And you RUINED ALL OF IT just because of noobs who only played 10 hours and cried about dying.

I've played this game for 1,200 hours since the beta.
Never missed a contract, activity, or patch. I’ve always made sure my feedback was solid and supported game diversity.

It’s heartbreaking to see this game become boring.

Please revert the sword nerf. Cerberus mediums can one/two shot lights, cb can two shot lights on BODY, why cant sword two shot mediums??
Also why would the SWORD get nerfed out of all things when it comes to one shotting? Double Barrel and the Matter are just as problematic if not worse when it comes to damage. And dont even get me started on the infinite ammo weapons/weapons with just as much dps but far more range.
The ONLY thing sword had over those weapons was mobility.
and thats all it has now.
PLEASE REVERT SWORD NERF IT IS UNUSABLE NOW.

as a dagger player it pains me to see embark consistently miss the mark when it comes to balancing melee weapons

the sword nerf serves nothing to alleviate the frustrations that were caused by idiotic redditors complaining about sword: the lunge range, forgiveness, and desync

the amount of active frames on sword rmb was ridiculous, it was far too forgiving such that players could just throw themselves in the general direction of an enemy team and clip atleast 2 people every time without much thought or positioning

the way to fix this has been debated but in my eyes it would be to either flat out reduce the active frames towards the end of the animation, reduce the lunge distance, or make it such that the damage of the lunge decreases as you reach the end of the animation, meaning that if you did the lunge and hit someone right at the very very end of the active frames, it would do anywhere from 75-100 dmg compared to 140

instead of this embark just decides to change the damage output entirely and destroy the sword breakpoints for fighting classes, shafting yet another melee weapon, better yet the only melee weapon to even see the light of day in top ranked lobbies

they claim to believe in balancing everything to be viable yet their actions show anything but that, cerberus remaining unchanged for god knows how many patches since its buff is becoming the new meme like how charge and slam took atleast FOUR seasons to nerf excluding the betas

Fix dagger… Put angle back to how it was, give the ability to press once for auto stab / hold it if u wanna hold it ( u become slow only when holding ) make the charge time a bit faster it’s .800 atm make it .600 ish…. Fix the fall dash stab glitch that we been asking for since s1… and for the love of god just fix the servers and stop blaming the dagger for server issues

What can I say? Once again a niche weapon has been nerfed for no apparent reason. Any argument that the sword was OP can be answered with, skill issue or get gud and it's not even trolling, it's literally truth. And I'm a H player for a minute. This weapon can easily be outplayed if you know how it works and its weaknesses.
How about killed cancel animation for pump-action weapons by the way? There's been no response from you for three weeks straight, your change was just unnecessary and literally no one ever asked for it.
If you're making changes based on your personal preferences and desires (and not on the real situation and problems), don't be surprised at all the hate from the community who were affected by the latest nerf in your direction.

Update after patch 6.0 :
Still no stun gun. When claw do 5dmg, grab you and stun you, like the stun gun but it's still here and even buff this season.

For the game

  • Add "step" in the reload animation so when you climb on something during a reload, it's not completly reset.
  • Increase the netcode/tickrate/servers. Getting kill at 3m far from a hammer/sword or behind a wall / door / cover is not ACCEPTABLE. Servers can't register your movements
  • Perma ban cheaters
  • Add a report option " AFK on purpose " in the report section in game please. I'm maining Light and it happens that player AFK just because they don't want Light in their team. You can let them on your game.
  • Let us choose our sight weapons at the beginning of a game
  • Let us go in practice with friends
  • Delete low gravity event. It's not fun AT ALL and unfair for Light. Movement are cancel and they only got 150HP
  • Random skin and charm list for weapons/gadgets
  • We shouldn't lost point in ranked when a team mate leave the squad and didn't play during the round
  • Let us invite friends or join them in group even if we are not the group leader
  • Add the possibility to look at the profil/card of friends and recent players.
  • Dash is trash with your netcode. Servers can't register a dash behind a cover and you will die anyway
  • **Give us the possibility to customize rules in private match. Like "only M and Dual Blade", "only Light and SR84", "only marksman", "No heal, Light only and grenade only". You can imagine all you want and put it in private match for streamer and their community to make the game more fun **
  • Let us use our VR for XP weapons or other things (not from me but very interresting idea !)

** For balance **

  • You shouldn't be able to right clic sword + dash
  • CB01-Repeater is just stupidly strong and OP. Nerf this weapons fast before all the new/come back players leaves your game again and for ever. EDIT : Nevermind, it's already happening
  • **CL40 buff was too much. Need to nerf it again. **
  • Buff Vanish Bomb and make it start regen instant. It will increase survability for the Light and it can be use for your teammates too !
  • Nerf Turret range.
  • The FAMAS nerf is useless in 5.8
  • Nerf proximity sensor range
  • Reduce the radius of the reflect of the Dual Blade or let us shoot in the feet or something else to let us counter DB when you got an AR
  • Nerf Cerberus damage.
  • Nerf the range of the KS shotgun. You can put 100 dmg at 20m.
  • Nerf PIKE to 48 instead of 50 dmg. You know what you did in 5.8 with that.
  • LH1 nerf was to strong in 6.0. Buff it to 45 dmg.
  • Flamethrower and hook should NOT get you through walls or other.
  • Nerf the hammer like you did for the sword to 100, because > Winch + Hammer + Melee = Free Kill. Same with chains.
  • Revive and Objectives score should add additional points in ranked
  • Rework defib: Reduce the cooldown reset to 5s and give 100HP instead of 50% of your HP. It will force Medium to revive more safety !
  • Rework Sonar : Scan 5 times instead of 3 but if you don't move it can't scan you

I will always post this now and add some changes time to time

Why do lights have invisibility as a specialization and a gadget!? It should force you to prioritize invisibility instead of having it as a quick get away crutch that it is. Change invisibility to a area of effect stun charge; you overcharge your hands and it releases a small area of effect stun, since they want lights to be disruptors or whatever they said their role was supposed to be. Just like mediums got recon sense taken away and they were eventually given a proximity sensor, it should be the same for the lights; it’s abusive and kills the flow of the game when there’s a little rat light just sitting in a corner invisible

youre missing the fact that the sword took significantly less skill to use than it did to counter. thats poor design. if an enemy is forcing perfect aim out of me, then they need to be putting in similar effort. nobody is denying that sword had counterplay.

granted, this nerf didnt fix that but they also said they will take another look at the weapon once stun gun is back in the game

but no not everything that has counterplay is balanced. thats the bare minimum

Yeha I’m a light main I barley touch sword so I can’t even be grouped into them but I shouldn’t have to fight for my life as a class that I like I’m a movement player I like being fast but it’s pointless if mediums can 2-3 shot me with half of there weapons not to mention mediums basically add a another player to there team if they have turrets

I like how they said they are “keeping an eye” on the new weapons like it isn’t blatantly obvious how people feel about them. The CB-01 is busted, the minigun fkn sucks dik, and the ARN…well that’s fine IMO. I’m more pissed about the minigun being so mid, the damage is ok, the range sucks ass, the spread sucks ass like 10m? Thats it? And the destructible damage takes a third of the mag to destroy shit. Don’t even get me started with that fkn spin up time Jesus Christ 1.5 seconds?! Just to do mid dmg?! This thing doesn’t need a buff it needs a miracle (but yes buff the shit out of the minigun) I want light mains to actually be punished for being in front of me. Before yall come at me there are more counters to minigun currently than any weapon in the game so don’t even

As I have now move on from Sword.... (not really tbh) I'm trying to play Dual Blades now and from what I've experienced so far, is that its not that bad but the little movement from it is VERY disadvantages so I propose INSTEAD of movement buff or something along those lines I would like to see a PERFECT parry mechanic put into it where is if you parry at the right time it can negate 90% more damage (only works against bullets) now if it negated 100% it would be too broken but in that sense I would like for it to be added and if thats too broken add a cooldown for it or less % negated. The blocking is just Lacking from my perspective since there is also a lack of movement for the melee weapon it needs something to even it out. A change I would like to have implement in it is also to if you perfect parry it, the bullets that damage the opponents do 1.5x more damage when PERFECT parried but thats just me idk.

If you don't have a permanent fix for Sword Lights, don't nuke them from orbit and leave it there like it's usable. That indicates to the player base that "it's usable now". No, the exploits are still there, and you gutted the weapon. It's not usable. Equip it and go try and fight a Heavy. If a change was so urgent, you should have just removed it from the game ala Stun Gun, and waited for a rework. If it's not urgent enough to temporarily remove it from the game, and you don't have a reasonable balance change for it: DON'T TOUCH IT.

The utter hatred and disgust against the melee players and repeated nerfs and buff cycles messing up the gameplay is really discouraging

Players organized to cry for nerf under a YouTube streamer is quite lame

After so many up and downs you will continue keep losing players and will just be left with a core base of elitist players who will play and mock you with their finger

I mean you've been living under a rock if you haven't seen how frustrated people in the community have been about the sword soooo... I agree with XP-54, it should probably be nerfed a little bit and in general light probably should get some nerfs overall, like a bigger character model or smth like it. I didn't personally have too much of an issue with sword but I am totally fine with the nerf seeing how many people weren't enjoying the game cause of it. Just because something can be countered "easily by top players" doesn't mean it should be in the game. In this case, it was especially ruining the game for newer players and lower ranked players that don't understand what's up and down. So fine, nerf the sword, it's not fun and if we want the game to grow, scaring away the new players is not the way to go about it.

ppl with 0 braincells mixing up whether sword needed a nerf with what kind of nerf it needed

did it need a nerf? yes

was a flat dmg nerf making it entirely useless for god knows how long until embark reworks it the move? no

needs multi-hit damage ramp-down and/or turn cap during lunge + removal of phantom strikes exploit and it would've been fine

embark needs to stop procrastinating with these bandaid dmg nerfs on weapons and just throw SOME rework out in the meantime, it really does not take this long. People have complained about sword forever, are you telling me no one had something in the works the entire last 6 seasons?

the funny part is the ppl happy about it being completely unusable now are still going to get dumpstered on in ranked no matter what lol

You make no sense. "People don't use the (supposedly) OP weapon or else they'll get counterplayed out of the tournament?" Well, if the weapon is so OP, why are they getting knocked out then? Shouldn't they be winning anyway??

Light's guns objectively have faster TTKs and at longer ranges to boot. Sword has always been an offmeta pick. Reducing its lunge damage by 25% is an extremely overtuned nerf and you know it. It's now completely useless trying to fight against healbeam.

While sword could have afforded a fix, neutering it's damage was crossing the line by a significant margin. Not only was a 25% damage nerf enough to kill the weapon entirely, but it did not address the issues it has at all.

-Phantom striking
-Multihits

These are the only issues that needed fixing. Instead of doing that you guys listened to the absolute bottom of the barrel in this community that would rather have this game turn into bootleg COD. Melee being viable in a shooter is something we rarely see, and now we'll probably never see it again based on your balancing method, which is "balance things based on what the community wants" rather than what the game needs, and the game did not need sword to be the worst weapon in the game. Counterplay for sword exists, its just that people are too stupid to utilize it or make their own form of counterplay.

forget it, the balance team are clowns who can only tweak numbers, but it's hard for them to fix bugs. They went down the most bastardly path, thereby practically killing the weapon. No creativity whatsoever

It's clear time and time again that embark nerfs only affect one aspect (damage, for example). They can never nerf one side of a weapon or gadget and tweak another in return (reshaper cooldown says hello). If the sword's charge time was reduced in exchange for the lost damage, it would be fair.
