Ok so i dont play sward, i hardly play L, but what you guys did to the sword is criminal. I never feel hard done by by a sword user. theres always a fun game of footsies before i get staunched by a skilled player with sword. Not like when an invisible DB player two shots me as a heavy in the back. In the future, if things seem un balenced, rather than nurfing, buff everything else. Honestly people love being glass cannons. make evereything stronger. The recent nerf to sword just took it out of the game for many people. its sad.

No cool down for class spec and gadgets for fun ONLY in practice server
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 or less time 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.

Breach charge should break smaller holes in walls so lights can minimise exposure that large destructon has right now, because u have 3 charges u can still make bigger holes.It should still stack damage.

Every feature or damage for high skill sword is needed for high rank.
Also phantom strikes.
Sword is too slow than bullet and it don't have any ability for one shot kill M and H, for melee weapon, that you don't have consume ability, you NEED to win if gun player make huge mistake (don't save gadget or be sneaky attack).

Sowrd player need to dash when the sword moving and help sword to make damaged for high movespeed player.
Embark, you will destroy this weapon.
You have a easy way to clear skillless sword in casual and low elo match.

JUST add some easy counter for the new player to kill skill less sword.

Buff explosive mine deployed time and buff RPG to 120 damage.
And add a feature to that quick melee can clear mine.

SHOW the weapon in scoreboard in game

To help player know weapon information in casual to counter unique weapon.
In rank, old player would choose right gadget to help himself to against unique weapon or playstyle when it have problem or poor to against something.

** Remove VS system and let the all gadget to new player**

All of them is the right thing to against melee, grenade launcher, sniper or something especial playstyle.

WTF Embark.
APEX have been huge complain when they want to nerf or remove movement, there has a lot of player like movement for FPS game, that is fun.
WHY you just make a lot of high speed weapon dead, ex model ?
they can go to play CS or VAL.
WHY they complain will succussed for something from beta to S6?
A lot of old player think this game become boring and leave to play another game.
I've try to bring 10 above friend into this game, teach them and have fun in this game only bc I'm love.

WE NEED new feature to make new player easy to learn this game and make teamword more easy.
NOT NERF

Everything would be ruin if you are a LAZY and only want to MAKE MONEY in The finals.

You want to ruin this game for everyone ?

This game is become boring and undiversity to player.
Again and again.
WTF.
SO SAD TO SEE THAT.

This is a stretch of a suggestion, but as I've stated before, adding new melee/unique "gimmick" weapons without nerfing the already existing ones would make the game more interesting and it'll drive home the point that this game values balance between preferred playstyles without being a CS/Val/CoD/BF clone.

How about considering adding in a Baseball Bat weapon in the game, turning the bat skin for the sword into an actual weapon with almost similar characteristics as the sword but different secondary fire attack? and perhaps the ability to throw/bat projectile gadgets further?

AND, how about we improve Spear to have it Charge up and THROW the spear as it's secondary fire, and add in a new weapon to replace the spinning move the spear did, perhaps a long sword maybe?

There's also an idea that has been lurking around here about a Kusarigama, which isn't a half-bad idea for a light. It would be similar to the Dagger (without backstab crits), but has a range secondary fire that can act as a mini-grapple and lockbolt to any opponents that were hit by it and finally fulfilling the dreams of people who wishes to be like Levi Actaman from (AoH) Attack on Heavy. why not consider it as well?

I assure you, the more INTERESTING and FUN "gimmick" weapons the less people would get annoyed by the already existing ones (sword) and more people who likes the melee playstyle would be inclined to use such weapons if added.

Also, please revert sword, for I am one of those people who likes fun "gimmick" weapons.

Ive thought about multiple times a throw attack for the spear. The dmg of the spin barely compares to the hammer not to mention all the spins downsides. Have it be quite a long windup and after you throw its a descently long time to get the spear back. But have it deal 150 damage (very hard to hit because its a projectile) and maybe 225 on headshot to reward insane skill.

You are asking Embark to redesign aspects of the game, ok I guess, they will not do it. The fact that the light class has a large amount of options in terms of weapons but when one weapon is nerfed, the whole class goes riot, that's hilarious. The Finals has a responsive dev team and yes, sometimes the balancing is not great but it's not a triple A game. And for any free game, The Finals has one of the most awesome and cheap cosmetics, saying that they are only trying to make money is a bit ridiculous.

It wasn't because of any real imbalance — the sword got nerfed just because of complaints from players who simply have a skill issue.

Embark shouldn't cater to clueless voices who don't even know how to use the weapon properly. The sword already had a lower TTK than most weapons and required you to be in close range, which was a major drawback. Now, thanks to this ridiculous nerf, it's become one of the worst weapons in the game.

Meanwhile, ranged weapons remain strong even at close range, but the sword — which only works in close quarters — got nerfed because of whining from people who couldn't handle it. Revert sword now.

You ppl should stop complaining abt weapons one shotting lights. the class is literally the one with the smallest amount of hp. a gun thats more powrful against lights might not be as powerful against heavies. meds have the median health.

for actually accurate statements, use the question "does it one-shot medium?"
obviously lights are going to get one shotted by lots of weapons. cerberus two shots a light. the wiki literally says that. and fire ignites on ur opponent only if at very close range. so only then is it gonna be one shot kill.

and also, when u hit one shot and the opponent is on fire, it takes time for him to die entierly by it, so theres a shit ton of chance they could two shot u as a med with it before they die.

cerb complaints are genuinely dumb shit. it has a considerably long reload. is only good at firing close range. and "one shotting" lgihts is the dumbest argument ive ever heard. have u ever seen how much time it needs against a heavy? so just because the lights are getting one shotted means that we make it even worse for attacking against heavies?

just know how to play better. this isnt one of the model problems where the gun was genuinely broken. all the complaints come from quick cash lights after they lost a match. nor is this a gadget that can be countered by other gadgets. it purely requires skill.

not the one to like saying this, but get better 😦

Instead of nerfing weapons, work to fix the game breaking bugs, not being able to shoot for example.

The priorities of these game studios will always baffle me. Make ten more cosmetics then keep game breaking glitches in the game for years to come.

I think really the best thing to do for the arn right now is cut back SMG ranges again. The problem is it’s still comparatively worse than the xp-54 in most situations, if it was exclusively in league with the LH1 in terms of range than it’d fine imo.

And on top of that the xp-54 contends with the mediums rifles at mid-long range which is frankly just silly. It’s basically an easier to control AK. I’ve got no issues with it or the m11s dps I just think that max dps should be contained to like 15-20m with a pretty steep falloff.

Just make the SMGs actually SMGs not just lil rifles.

Since nukes are pretty much history now, wouldn’t it make sense to give throwable objects some extra purpose? Feels like they were originally designed to be used with mines or C4, but with all the anti-nuke patches, that combo's basically dead. So why not give them a new role? Maybe bump up the impact damage from 50 to 100 (or make it based on distance/weight). Honestly, I’d even love to see it go up to 140 if you throw the cashbox. That could open up some really cool plays—using them as an emergency weapon in a fight, or risking a box throw to finish someone off (though if they’re fast enough, they could just catch it mid-air).

Revert Sword Lunge to 140. Removing Lunge+QM combo vs Light when Light kills Light fast with literally anything is nonsensical. Only change needed = Fix phantom strikes.

Sword was balanced.

No synergy with Dash = Would be too immobile for Light melee that needs multiple hits
No QM synergy = Breakpoints would be too slow for Light melee that needs multiple hits, requires not overshooting lunge to make it harder to aim at you, must stop right beside enemy to QM
No full damage multihit = Would be useless if >1 enemy, in melee as lowest HP class but 0 breakpoints hit on anyone except first, pick a gun for ranged non-multihit damage
No lingering flicks = Would be too readable for Light melee that needs multiple hits

Sword is the single worst weapon in the game. Not only is it melee on lowest HP class, you removed every single breakpoint fast enough to work vs even remotely competent players.

~~Vs Light: Lunge+QM = Must be 110~~
~~Vs Medium: Lunge x2 = Must be 125~~
~~Vs Medium: Lunge+QM+Primary = Must be 136~~
~~Vs Heavy: Lunge x3 = Must be 117~~
~~Vs Heavy: (Lunge+QM) x2 = Must be 135~~
~~Vs Heavy: (Lunge x2)+Primary = Must be 138~~

Your own patch notes LITERALLY imply Sword wasn’t unbalanced but got nerfed due to complaints. You separately address Sword as a “gameplay” change to make it less frustrating. Then you separately addressed “balance” changes, saying Cerberus, Pike, and FAMAS are over-performing but you won’t nerf them yet. ```On the gameplay side, (…) nerf to the Sword's secondary attack, aiming to reduce the frustration (…)

Finally, Balance-wise, (…) standout contenders like the Cerberus, Pike-556, FAMAS (…)
(…) monitoring several items based on their performance (…) like
ly to make some adjustments (…) coming weeks. These include the Cerberus 12GA, Pike-556 and FAMAS (…)```

Sword feedback does not matter

as long as a melee weapon is competitive it will be hated and called "gimmicky"

the community will always call melee users "glue eaters" or "unskilled" and just tell them to learn how to use a real weapon

a part of your community will always feel chaffed and their hours in aim trainers will feel invalidated by someone who doesnt train hours a day to get more headshots being better than them

its a no-win situation, you either make melee useless and just an ego booster for people that win against them, or have people always mad that someone can win in a different way

adding melee was a way of adding a type of variety to the game some of your audience hates, they just want a cod with destructible enviroment

the only way you are going to make them happy is by removing melee weapons or making them useless.

just add a no melee ranked queue, its the simplest solution.

(this entire message is a joke. i heavily disagree with the sword nerf)
Weapons, gadgets and specializations that should be nerferd based on the sword nerf
-Dagger. one shots lights in the back
-Recurve Bow. one shots lights on full string draw headshot
-SR-84. oneshots light in the head
-Sh1900. one shots light if at least 10 bullets hit
-M26 matter. if at least 10 bullets hit it combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-Throwing Knives. one shots light in head with alt fire
-CB-01 Repeater. headshot combos with quick melee for a light "oneshot"
-Cerberus 12GA. if all bullets hit it combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-R.357. headshot combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-Dual Blades. if both of the second attacks in the sequence hits it combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-Sledge Hammer. alt oneshots light
-Spear. alt fire "oneshots" light if 2 of the 3 swing in the alt fire land
-Frag grenade. combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light

honourable mentions
-Charge and Slam. the initial burst + the slam "oneshots" light
-Sword (again) and Riot shield. because they are melee weapons

let me know if i missed any

summer bluff You should really fix that there is a penalty if you start WT or Ranked with a t...

+1 to this.

Last night I had a team of two drop out, then 1 drop out in the very next round. The same rule as in WT needs to be implemented in Ranked. If a teammate drops out they can be penalised, but then you should be free to drop out with zero RS loss.

I get there might be a risk for cheaters to grief the rule. But losing RS because of solos dropping out is killing Ranked for casual players.

Likewise, you need to add casual modes for PowerShift and any other modes that have had leaderboards added to them. All modes should have competitive with leaderboards, and then casual modes without. That would help clean up the problem with all game modes becoming so sweaty since S5.

One thing that isn’t super problematic but I find a bit unfair. Wench is a lot of reward for only being able to hit one single shot. I think for the power of grabbing someone within a pretty solid radius regardless of being in the air or on a platform is just a bit much for being able to hit a single shot. I’m not sure exactly how to do it but it should be a bit more skillful. It’s not really fair a person can be controlling recoil hitting head shots and the entire engagement is shifted because a guy can hit one shot. Not a huge problem but something I’ve felt for a while about wench not op but too much power for not enough skill.

Not gonna bother typing a paragraph, theres plenty of arguments for reverting sword above. Revert it, this nerf makes no sense, and sword was perfect the way it was. Only phantom strikes need fix.

paper meadow Apr 13, 2025, 4:19 PM

#

sterile canopy why would someone run the XP over the M11 if such a change was made?

It has a higher dps and is easier to spray up close? The xp should be slightly easier to control and slightly more consistent at range because of its lower recoil. They just need to be balanced within their weapon class, not that complicated.

Just don’t want a bo3 or titanfall 2 situation where the smgs are just better ARs. And with their range characteristics they’re pretty dang close.

I'm a sword main, and this new lunge damage nerf is disgusting. Even with the intention being to make it less oppresive against lights, this is way too much. Any light with a somewhat decent reaction time can now beat a sword. Additionally, mediums no longer die to two lunges, making it a lot harder to kill them, and heavies have gone from 2 lunges and a slash to 3 lunges and a quick melee, which is enough time for almost any player to kill a light. This has made sword, a weapon that already isn't used that often over better guns, to a nightmare to use. Sword was one of my favorite parts of this game but now I don't know how I can reason with myself to use it. Please revert this change, it was the worst thing that could have been done.

FIX. THE. CHEATING. ISSUE. I understand that the majority of the playerbase doesn’t know how to recognize a cheater as soon as they see it, but anyone with a lot of time in competitive games can EASILY recognize when someone is using walls, and then when you die you see they’re level 14 or somewhere in that region. This is not a small issue, and it’ll only get worse as the game picks back up momentum. I would saying with full confidence that at least 40% of the PC crowd is cheating, console has xim and zen but that’s a different conversation that embark can’t solve by themselves. Easy anti-cheat is awful, we all know this because of Apex’s cheating problem, look what happened to them. You’re gonna start losing players because of this

I JUST FUCKING LOVE THE GLITCH TRAP BUGGING OUT HAVING 10M RANGE KEEPING ME GLITCHED AFTER I BROKE LOS AND GLITCHES ME TROUGHT LOS AND HOW FUCKING UNBALANCED IT IS TO FULLY COUTER A WEAPON

This games balancing improves at a snails pace. It’s been almost a year and a half, not including 1 alpha and 3 betas, and we aren’t even finished nerfing the overpowered primaries (cerberus)

Mediums class identity has been eviscerated by overnerfing defib and healing beam while buffing close range options (Cerberus) and then not giving any cool utility to the class??? Medium has the same amount of gadgets that it did on launch. How??? It has the most potential for interesting gadgets and specs.

Light is a horribly designed shitshow that scares away casuals and has 1 viable playstyle in high elo. When are you redesigning the specs that only get value based on enemy mistakes? Invis blows if your opponent is good at spotting it. Dash is horrible if your opponent can aim. No wonder the class eats shit against good players and frustrates casuals until they quit.

Heavy’s specs have been dumbed down a ton. Goo gun has been shadow nerfed a lot, mesh had its skill expression removed with juggling, winch is still not telegraphed???

Half of the items in the game have the status of “literally never put this in your loadout if you want to win in any serious environment.” How?? It’s almost been two years.

Shit like Cerberus gets gigabuffed one patch and then goes unmonitored and ruins ranked and competitive play for months. Maybe be quick to walk back a change after buffing a weapon 3 times in one patch???

Cashout is still miserable. Team spawns, vault spawns, cashout spawns, third parties, all or nothing gameplay, griefing, being punished for other teams mistakes, etc all make knockout rounds horrible to play.

3v3 is STILL all or nothing for some reason??? The gamemode has enough downtime in the first place but then the points system means only 2-3 of the fights in the entire ~12 minute round actually matter.

I’ve always been super defensive of this games dev team and balancing because every new team shooter suffers from bad balancing at first. But this isn’t a new game anymore. And you’ve stated in multiple dev comments that you actually think the game is well balanced. There’s no more hope left for any player when the devs of the terribly balanced game come out and say “oh we actually think the game is in a great spot”

This game needs something to change fast because it’s clear you want a competitive future for the game. But your balancing is atrociously bad. You’re losing your most dedicated players because they’re tired of waiting for it to get better.

This game is supposedly in the most balance state it has ever been yet in truth we have around 6 primaries and like 3 speccs that are entire jokes across the board regardless of skill level, to the point that these things that I will go on about are either insta loss conditions and usable at best

Over the course of the first year of this game since its launch, this game has tried something unique to shooters and thats trying to bring in weapons that are commonly considered either power weapons or whatever you wanna call em

Embark has stated openly that they want their game to have their arsenal of weapons, whether its a gun or a melee or a special weapon, to be at the very least in a somewhat viable way for players to truly engage with rather than just be a fun having thing that will never see the light of day in a serious environment. (Thats my ad lib anyways, not a word for word)

Point is, they have failed to really done an effort into make this comment a reality, for example;

-Spear
-Flamethrower
-Goo gun
-Guardian Turret
-Dual Blades
-Mgl
-China lake
-Riot Shield*
-Dagger*
-Throwing Knives*

This list from the very worst its basically a joke to very best, usable

Personally there are also other issues with some other weapons like sword but I will get into that lil devil on the suggestion part of this shout to the void

My observation from this entire list that I bring up its truly the lack of a genuine kit to even engage properly or rather when they do engage in where they are supposed to be used, theyre simply just so terrible and number go up or number go down as a solution will genuinely NOT FIX THE ISSUES and would create frustrations instead

My suggestion is quite simple honestly and its expanding the actions players can do with these weapons. A third action for melees and a secondary action for special ones.

I will get into ideas for the weapons and speccs in the list in the follow up cuz well text count limit

Revert the sword change or at least show us what data there is on the sword needing this. I am genuinely curious how it compares to other L weapons? It takes dozens- hundreds of hours to make the sword viable in ranked and now it feels like sword players are fighting against the balance to stay on par with other weapons. Yeah it still dominates in unranked low tier lobbies if you’re good. As does any high skilled player 😭. If anything, nerfing it is only pushing these players towards less competitive modes.

These stupid, incompetent jerks complained that melee weapons are "annoying" and got them nerfed, but I've never seen an FPS use something so irritating as a balancing factor before. These freaking idiots say that using a sword requires zero skill—nothing of the sort. They’ve probably never even used a sword. Of course, swinging a sword, dagger, or hammer takes skill. But these fools have never tried it, so they just don’t know. Then, whining about how annoying it is and insisting it needs a nerf, they incited the crowd and ended up nerfing the sword. It’s all because of these dunces who don't know how to handle it. And on top of that, I know that Appoh and his followers were the ones saying it was merely a “skill issue for the folks getting wrecked by the sword,” but then they suddenly switched their tune, incited people, and completely killed the weapon.

Nerf m26 matter damage to stop one shot plus QM on L

Nerf Cl40 damage to stop two shot L with AOE.

You pissed off at these suggestions? Yeah I would be too. All of these suggestions are shitty as hell, and are exactly what sword just got patched in. It happened to model last season, should be reverted. Model and sword were both high risk, high reward weapons. Model rewarded good aim, sword rewarded good positioning. If you messed up with those on either weapon you were dead. Sword wasnt even meta like model was.

When I play heavy, sword is literally no problem. Winch them, theyre dead. Lockbolt them, dead. Charge and slam, dead. Rpg plus 2 shots, dead. Medium has a tougher time, but theyre also the strongest class in the meta and have been for a while, they deserve a counter. They can always jump pad away.

All of these have similar or faster TTK than sword did, while still able to significantly damage from range (other than shottys and sledge). Yeah sword can lunge and dash, but the other light weapons can still dash and shoot from range. Sword was good in close range, but thats it. Double barrel is better in almost every other way, while still being able to deal with mines. Faster TTK on all classes, not useless without dash, marginal better range.

Side note GIVE SLEDGE THE AOE SLAM BACK. If a heavy hits multiple people with it at once, they deserve the multi kill. Removing sword phantom strikes would be great.

And before you say it, yes I’m salty af.

I wish there were weapons skins that look like completely different weapons.

For example, for the AKM a skin that looks like a M4 or Radian Mod 1

or for the FAMAS would fit something like Classic M16 or AUG A3

Why yes I did misread lol. But I did answer in my message there, it’s easier to handle and more accurate. Same as it is now, I’m just suggesting both SMGs get tuned to excel in closer ranges to make the longer range options (i.e. the LH1 and ARN) more viable in the lineup.

They’ve done that thousands of times, only reason you noticed is because they released at the same time. There’s no options to change the color of a clothing item or skin, so they release multiple variations so more people have depth and style choices. There’s a lot of things to complain about in this game but the cosmetics should be at THE BOTTOM, finals has some of the best cosmetics out of any shooter

(this entire message is a joke. i heavily disagree with the sword nerf)
Weapons, gadgets and specializations that should be nerferd based on the sword nerf
-Dagger. one shots lights in the back
-Recurve Bow. one shots lights on full string draw headshot
-SR-84. oneshots light in the head
-Sh1900. one shots light if at least 10 bullets hit
-M26 matter. if at least 10 bullets hit it combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-Throwing Knives. one shots light in head with alt fire
-CB-01 Repeater. headshot combos with quick melee for a light "oneshot"
-Cerberus 12GA. if all bullets hit it combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-R.357. headshot combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-Dual Blades. if both of the second attacks in the sequence hits it combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light
-Sledge Hammer. alt oneshots light
-Spear. alt fire "oneshots" light if 2 of the 3 swing in the alt fire land
-Frag grenade. combos with quick melee to "oneshot" light

honourable mentions
-Charge and Slam. the initial burst + the slam "oneshots" light
-Sword (again) and Riot shield. because they are melee weapons

Why does it take my whole loadout and just about all my dashes to kill one or two people in an close range fight where sword is supposed to strive, and every time I have to wait for 5-8 seconds to get back into a fight for my health to regen otherwise as a light 1 - 2 bullets and i'm dead since close range fight are so disadvantages to both teams but for a sword it is also even more dangerous now as its much harder to out damage the ttk. Meantime the other weapons are really good from just about any range and is good at any range which that is how it should be, but I just don't get why as a sword I can't even JUST be good at close fights when I have to use all my util and manage it as perfect as possible when fighting mid to high ranks. People saying sword doesn't require skill to play are kinda dumb when it come to the sword cause it not just the sword you have to utilize its everything such as abilities, equipment and guns that others are using, knowing that and how to play around it takes skill not crayon eating brain power like aim and shoot like most people think about. Any ways my point is that the Nerf to Sword was a wayy to unreasonable nerf to it, did it need a nerf? yes, but by this much hell no. Phantom strike was quite oppressive in high ranks and very much so in low ranks for people who knew how to use it. Nerf That. Multi hit was and is still a lil too strong for people since they just can seem to fix their mistake of being to close too each other. Nerf That. Not the overall damage like Embark did. Some people happy about this nerf only because they know just how bad this nerf is, wasn't a evening out patch it was a 6ft under patch for the sword. It take 10x the effort now especially against people who know how to play the game. All the hundreds of hours i've spent playing sword is just a waste for this season. I am glad tho that Embark said they are still looking in ways to go about the sword tho which means this patch isn't the final verdict so thank you.
Also remove Low Grav its just super boring

Hey so I know everyone says to undo the sword nerf. Obviously it was nerfed too much. It was already a very high skill weapon to play, and required a lot of practice to be viable and eventually good. I think if you remove the phantom hits, the sword was a very balanced weapon. Even if you bring the dash down to 130 damage and remove phantom hits, that would be fair.

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.

Add a god damn map preferrance, or selection for casual play.
I'm leaving every, single, Kyoto match, I'm matched to. You think it is fun to queue up eight times in a row, just to leave, for me, or anyone else I left?
Add map selection, everybody, and I mean, everybody will be having more fun with your game, there is zero downsides I can think of.
If map gets no players, you know there is a problem with it, simple as that.

EDIT: To above posts, performance is worse for me since Season 1. But I have to say, it seems random, I can play multiple games with rock solid fps, then there is random game where the fps drops all the time to 17 to 30... It's random for me.

EDIT2: Below, Batman, so that explains why I get Kyoto in a row so many times, how long is one map there at a time? How long you have to wait?

Phantom Strikes is very very inconsistent btw, even with perfect inputs it is not plausible playing with it in high rank. People are overestimating its usage, I agree it it needs to be fixed but it is definitely a COIN FLIP to use its comparable to 65%-75% chance of missing a backstab due to servers.

Its really just a gimmick, might as well not use it against L/M and you need that heavy to be standing still due to how tight the timing is.

The ks-23 needs 100% accuracy, any other buff is pointless

The ks-23 is the only direct hit projectile weapon that is not afforded the luxury of accuracy which is the main reason its suffering. In concept its great and i love the gun, but anyone who has played it for any significant ammount of time knows that its main point of frustration is its unrelieability. Because of the spread targets beyond 8 meters are a gamble to hit. The feature inplace to make it a skillful weapon is already the projectile, however this is ruined by the spread. You can predict your targets movement, lead your shot correctly but still miss because the game decided your slug goes left.

The only buff the ks needs to be good is accuracy. Buffs like range falloff or firerate wouldnt solve the underlying issue of it being frustrating to use beyond 8 meters, headshots without accuracy are pointless, damage is going to force winch ks back which was not very fun to die to. A bigger projectile would maybe work but decrease the guns skill expression.

Even with 100% accuracy the gun would be far from op due to the small mag and bad ttk. However it would be a lot more fun and a lot less frustrating to use

Revert Sword Lunge to 140. Removing Lunge+QM combo vs Light when Light kills Light fast with literally anything is nonsensical. Only change needed = Fix phantom strikes.

Sword was balanced.

No synergy with Dash = Would be too immobile for Light melee that needs multiple hits
No QM synergy = Breakpoints would be too slow for Light melee that needs multiple hits, requires not overshooting lunge to make it harder to aim at you, must stop right beside enemy to QM
No full damage multihit = Would be useless if >1 enemy, in melee as lowest HP class but 0 breakpoints hit on anyone except first, pick a gun for ranged non-multihit damage
No lingering flicks = Would be too readable for Light melee that needs multiple hits

Sword is the single worst weapon in the game. Not only is it melee on lowest HP class, you removed every single breakpoint fast enough to work vs even remotely competent players.

~~Vs Light: Lunge+QM = Must be 110~~
~~Vs Medium: Lunge x2 = Must be 125~~
~~Vs Medium: Lunge+QM+Primary = Must be 136~~
~~Vs Heavy: Lunge x3 = Must be 117~~
~~Vs Heavy: (Lunge+QM) x2 = Must be 135~~
~~Vs Heavy: (Lunge x2)+Primary = Must be 138~~

Your own patch notes LITERALLY imply Sword wasn’t unbalanced but got nerfed due to complaints. You separately address Sword as a “gameplay” change to make it less frustrating. Then you separately addressed “balance” changes, saying Cerberus, Pike, and FAMAS are over-performing but you won’t nerf them yet. ```On the gameplay side, (…) nerf to the Sword's secondary attack, aiming to reduce the frustration (…)

Finally, Balance-wise, (…) standout contenders like the Cerberus, Pike-556, FAMAS (…)
(…) monitoring several items based on their performance (…) like
ly to make some adjustments (…) coming weeks. These include the Cerberus 12GA, Pike-556 and FAMAS (…)```

Absolutely agree but principally because the filter does not work. It frequently censors bits of things that it shouldn’t or has no reason to because they’re so mild (can’t say ass, damn, lmao, hell, stfu.) whereas some more significant actual slurs (which I will not mention here) are completely uncensored. I wouldn’t be surprised if they got their list from chat gpt.

It’s fundamentally broken and somehow both too overprotective while also being too lenient on a handful of the most foul of slurs? Cool embark.

things oneshotting light is a problem not a way to justify
more things one shotting light I like your reasoning with all of these though because it is kinda lame that sword cant do its entire thing anymore but the thing about light and its melee weapons is they shouldn't be that strong BECAUSE OF LIGHTS MOVEMENT and thats why dagger keeps getting weird changes with its backstab radius and them trying to make its primary more useful, dagger is a situational weapon compared to sword, it offers more value but sword is way more consistent (and still is if used properly because of its FAT hitbox), throwing knives is the only outlier of a weapon that's a bit unfair and probably needs a reload mechanic, I think nerfing melee weapons and making lights specializations more reliable is a completely fair adjustment like giving light 2 grapples instead of one, Dash being less inconsistent and ping based (like making it a blink instead of just a momentum boost that falls off if youre laggy or trip on a pebble) and reworking cloak or recognizing that some people are just blind and will literally need a "heres the cloaked light" mechanic for them to realize theres a shifting piece of reality standing right infront of them.

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 🥺🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

@feral shard You're delusional. I play medium, and I really don't like getting two shot all the time, however I still agree with you, the sword nerf was overboard. However, you cannot get away with saying it was the worst weapon in the game, it's just criminal. I think bring the sword's damage back up to like 130 or something, get rid of phantom strikes, and some other small things here and there like the lingering hitbox. Fine-tuning nerfs, if you will. You cannot possibly actually think that the sword was bad or even the worst weapon before this nerf. That would be like me saying the pre-nerf model was the worst weapon in the entire game, it's just false.

I actually really enjoy phantom strikes, and the medium kill combo of hit - phantom strike - thrust feels nice. If it could become more consistent but maybe a little stricter on the timing, I would gladly take 5 more damage on the thrust.
So I can go back to blowing up lights.

Fcking idxot balances devs and communicate.
You only ruin weapons and playstyles one by one, without ever addressing the real problems.

I tried to tell the devs what matters: diversity, solo queue friendliness, new player accessibility—creating a game where competitive and casual players, new or old, high or low skill, can all enjoy it.

I've tried to convince players from NA, TW, China, and EU.
Many of them agree with me. But the devs still don’t change anything.

I’ve played this game for over 1200 hours—from the beta to Season 6.
I’ve never missed a contract or event, and I’ve participated in every ranked and game mode.
I’ve watched every related video on Bilibili and YouTube.

I’ve posted over 30 essays, each more than 1,000 words, on feedback, Reddit—even emailed Embark directly.
Still, nothing. You let the game grow more boring, more dead, day by day.

I truly love this game.
But what the hell are the devs doing?
You're ruining it!!!

If someone complains, you just nerf or remove things. That’s ridiculous.
This cycle of nerfs will never end, and every playstyle will suffer.

Add new features to balance.
Add new gadgets, specs—do something right to actually improve the game.

NOT JUST NERF.
No matter what you nerf, people will still complain.
What the final?
Everyone would leave like me, and Your Game Will Dead.
I'm tired, maybe I need to leave this channel and enjoy life.
I try above 3000hr in the fps game.
I thought The Finals is the world-best FPS game, I have thought.
This game would be the next Apex, even worse.
Apex still has a lot of players, and the peak amount player could be the True world-best FPS game.
The Finals have the potential to be the best, but someone RUIN it.

Good takes 👍, especially on ARN and 1216. And yes, for sword too 😏. People who say to leave sword as it is don’t realize how truly worthless the weapon is now. Like there is no weapon in the game that is less worth using. For Cerby however I think the issue is less the range and more the fact that one perfect shot can (with burn damage) kill a light. If the base damage was lowered by 1 per pellet, I think most people would be happy

mental sky Aiming is too bothersome eh?

sword takes way more skill than **most **guns in the game, you repeat and spout the same "no skill argument" despite never playing the weapon and only complain because you get killed by it.

sword takes the same amount of aim as half of the guns in this game even though you dont have to track with it, but requires much more skill when it comes to isolating 1v1's, positioning, resource management, timing, awareness, awareness of where your team is at, etc. every weapon benefits from these skills but sword players have to be more aware than other weapons as it allows for very little mistakes.

This is coming from someone who does love to play sword, but doesnt main it, and has an even split on heavy/light. and i can guarantee you after i switch off to literally any other light weapon, the game gets so much easier. It takes much more work for sword players to get the same amount of value as someone running xp-54 or half of lights other weapons.

As for my actual feedback...
My issue with sword is just a personal gripe, i wish there was more incentive to use the main attack than lunge. maybe up the damage of the left click and make it come out a bit faster? not super duper much, but enough to make it useful. Also, make it clearer for the user and enemy when a lunge is ready. || especially as the basic sword is a sabre of some kind and theres also a katana skin, both are more inclined to use cuts than thrusts in irl. there is a rapier skin (my beloved) but shhhh ||

Separate keybinds for Vault & Jump. This is incredibly basic for a shooter. We are in season 6 and you still haven't added this? In no way is it a competitive shooter if we can't even have proper control over our own actions.

Sensitivity slider settings for ALL scope zoom variations Another basic QOL design for any shooter game.

Cerberus nerf It should not 1-tap lights

Revert recent changes made to dagger, bring back 180 degrees backstab angle.

Revert all changes done to quick-melee weaving with all weapons. This was a great mechanic for skill-expression, and also felt very good to use, you don't need to dumb down all aspects of your game, tune the weapon damage numbers instead of removing a good game mechanic.

Grapple genuinely should be incremental as in the longer you use it the longer cooldown it has, it would make it a lot easier and more fun to use.

Also, Light Gadget Idea

Ice grenade, use it to make the floor slippery, maybe with a little bit of knockback. It'd be a fun movement utility, and provide a fun throwable

Think grapple needs a full rework/adjustment that makes it something you can actually swing with rather than just go up high with. Like I’d love to use it in the same sense as I would pathfinder in apex/the grapple in tf2. If you could launch yourself great distances with grapple it’d open up the game to more varied movement and I bet we’d see a lot of cool plays based on the movement you’d get from it. I mean I’m sure 1000s of people have mentioned wanting grapple to work this way, I feel like it’s the first thing anyone would think of

No reload to learn recoil and no cool down for class spec and gadgets for fun ONLY in practice server
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 or less time 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.

Breach charge should break smaller holes in walls so lights can minimise exposure that large destructon has right now, because u have 3 charges u can still make bigger holes.It should still stack damage.

shrewd estuary aint reading allat nerf sword again

Revert Sword Lunge to 140. Removing Lunge+QM combo vs Light when Light kills Light fast with literally anything is nonsensical. Only change needed = Fix phantom strikes.

Sword was balanced.

No synergy with Dash = Would be too immobile for Light melee that needs multiple hits
No QM synergy = Breakpoints would be too slow for Light melee that needs multiple hits, requires not overshooting lunge to make it harder to aim at you, must stop right beside enemy to QM
No full damage multihit = Would be useless if >1 enemy, in melee as lowest HP class but 0 breakpoints hit on anyone except first, pick a gun for ranged non-multihit damage
No lingering flicks = Would be too readable for Light melee that needs multiple hits

Sword is the single worst weapon in the game. Not only is it melee on lowest HP class, you removed every single breakpoint fast enough to work vs even remotely competent players.

~~Vs Light: Lunge+QM = Must be 110~~
~~Vs Medium: Lunge x2 = Must be 125~~
~~Vs Medium: Lunge+QM+Primary = Must be 136~~
~~Vs Heavy: Lunge x3 = Must be 117~~
~~Vs Heavy: (Lunge+QM) x2 = Must be 135~~
~~Vs Heavy: (Lunge x2)+Primary = Must be 138~~

Your own patch notes LITERALLY imply Sword wasn’t unbalanced but got nerfed due to complaints. You separately address Sword as a “gameplay” change to make it less frustrating.

sword idea rather than limiting how much you can turn while lunging i think the hitbox should shrink as you turn so that its got the maximum reach going in a straight line but you can still turn to hit someone to your side if theyre close enough, it would reduce the effectiveness of just spinning like a beyblade without locking your camera and making it feel clunky to use

Just** revert sword damage nerf**

-Remove the ability to dash while doing lunge

Increase lung distance

Multihit should ONLY be during its primary attack, not lunge. It makes no effng sense that a sword thats thrusting towards one person should be able to hit others that are not even in the direction of the thrust. The sword's primary attack is a swing anyway so it would make sense there. And he shouldn't be able to move fast while doing that, but can still evas dash and other stuff for movement. Also we should be able to use its primary attack while grappling so I can look like a pirate.

Fix it's stupid hitreg. I shouldnt be able to hit five people at the same time, while only touching like two of the people. it makes things confusing for the other end.

make sniper hit scan. If you guys are gonna cry make its dmg drop meter same as pike. You can't use a sniper above 100 meters because they will contest you in a fight that is in +100 meters and they are gonna hit easily while you are gonna try to calculate the bullet drop and and wired delay. While pike hits the same. LIKE WTF IT IS A SNIPER IT SHOULD BE BEST GUN TO USE IN LONG RANGE FIGHTS. IT IS JUST AN STRONGER REPETER THAT IS ONLY USEABLE IN MID RANGE WITH MOVMENT. BECAUSE YOU CAN'T EVEN CONTEST A FIGHT WITH IT EVEN WHEN YOU GOT THE FIRST SHOT IF YOUR ENEMY IS NOT A BRONZE OR WHAT EVER. IT DOESN'T FEELS LIKE A SNIPER @feral shard "No full damage multihit = Would be useless if >1 enemy, in melee as lowest HP class but 0 breakpoints hit on anyone except first, pick a gun for ranged non-multihit damage

Does not mean it needs some counter to make new players play against, and you have overkill those counters?

It is end.
My best friend plays with me in The Finals above 1000hr, NOW he deleting this game because S6 is boring and he can't enjoy it anymore, we have played duel to diamond a lot of times with AR ,shotgun or some special weapon, but NOW it would never go back to The Finals.
S6 no map no new spec no new gadget, and Embark keeps deleting anything fun in this game and never help new players or soloQ players learn how to play and teamwork.
The whole game is dead.
The balance dev solves the problem like a 7 age kid.
Make this game more and more boring and delete or nerf everything fun in this game.

Plz buff grapple. It's clearly the least favored, least competitive specialization. I find it really strange that it hasn't got love considering it's the only light specialisation that's not annoying to come up against. People moan about cloak cz you just get jumped unexpectedly without making a mistake, and people complain about dash because they can't track - yet grapple is so much fun to use, isn't as annoying to face, and you make it the weakest?

I think two charges might be OP, but possibly not. Basically a shorter cool down AT LEAST. Please

my biggest issue with the game right now is the recent uptick in lag issues. Mid fights you will freeze or drop from the match. This can range from 3 to even 10 seconds of just stuck. And then either you die or lose the point so this is not good at all. It is not just me but many many of my friends that play. We all play on the east coast the USA. Last night we switch from Auto to north east and the same issue.

Buff sword to 110 damage so quick melee combo is possible again.

Double barrel can 1 shot lights.

Sniper + quick melee can 1 shot lights.

Bow full charge + quick melee can 1 shot lights.

I main bow, I think its pretty dumb to punish sword players this much just because people complain.

subtle oak Buff sword to 110 damage so quick melee combo is possible again. Double barrel ...

As a sword main that buff still wouldn’t be enough. While it would be the right direction it still would nerf the matchup against mediums and heavies. The entire reason sword was 140 in the first place was so 2 lunges plus a slash could kill heavies. Otherwise, completely agree. You could also mention how sniper (and bow I think) one shot headshot lights from a much longer range than sword

DB 2 shots and qm heavies. But honestly as long as I can 1 tap lights I don’t mind having to dance around a heavy to get a kill. My problem is with lights cuz they have the most potential to wipe my team if left unchecked and high rank lights have basically aimbot.

sword nerf is crazy there’s kinda no point not just using a sniper. it’s less fun but i’ve had more success in close up fights w lights cause you tag them once then use 1 dash to finish them off w melee instead of the 2 dash necessary w sword now. The issue is mainly this, sword relies on engaging and disengaging super quick and a light now takes as long to kill as a medium used to in this way. Medium requires more skill but still doable which is fine I guess. But fighting lights, better off using two lunge attacks (harder to hit) because there’s a high chance they’ll dash away in the time it takes to swing, and it’s still fun but it’s not worth it in casual. Let alone viable in comp

Hi embark, something I've noticed a lot with new or returning casual players is that they are often turned off by the VRs to unlock new weapons. I've seen people, as well as my own friends, not bother to continue playing the game because they need to grind to try the new stuff, which I think overall hurts the possibility of them finding a weapon they really enjoy and staying as a result. I feel its important because other than classes, they are the main factors that change the gameplay experience for a person.

Just popping in to say that I'm really close to mastering all three phantom strikes, which I previously refused to do since I considered it cheating and temporary. I'm developing a new playstyle that's making me more dangerous than I was before the nerf. My motto has always been "NinjaNeet don't cheat". Don't like me cheating? then stop begging the Devs to repeatedly nerf what was already basically the worst weapon.

Please add a proper ping and packet loss counter. Whether it's added in the scoreboard, a separate UI option, or attached to the detailed FPS counter.

It would help us figure out what's up with the connections, and help us give better feedback on the server issues that have been going on.

My current list of suggestions:

More sensitivity options
every weapon has different feel of usage and scopes, and i really don't like changins my setting if i want to switch weapon
example - if i'm using XP-54 i'm going for 100% zoom cuz it's easier to track like that
but if i'm playing with bow - i have to lower my zoom to 60% cuz it has no zoom whatsoever so 100% feels like i'm just playing with hipfire
sr-84 hitscan should be reverted
in current state when even mediums have multiple options to fight against sniper rifle - i think it's fair go make it hitscan again
bow should have un-draw bind as reload
since this weapon is 1/infinite ammo it doesn't need reload at all, but the fact that you're unable to un-draw is hilarious. You have to use quick melee to stop it, and it can screw your timings sometimes really hard

Update after patch 6.0 :
Still no stun gun after a month. It should come back .
Cheaters are spreading all over the game. A lot of wallhack and aimbot.

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 " Sabotage " in the report section in game please.
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.
CL40 revert the buff.
Buff Vanish Bomb and make it start regen instant and/or. It will increase survability for the Light and it can be use for your teammates too !
Nerf Turret range.
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
Chain and hook shouldn't do damage.

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

embark you need to monitor big changes closely instead of making huge sweeping changes and just leaving them like that for months on end. you had no issue clipping cl40's wings when it had its week of glory, but somehow cerberus escaped the same treatment when its infinitely more unhealthy for the game. cerberus meta has completely trashed medium's identity as a support character and made the game incredibly boring.
