If you want to play ranked with your friend and you’re gold and your friend isn’t even silver that friend shouldn’t be able to play with you. I solo Q quite often in ranked and 2 out of the four matches I played yesterday I was with a duo and one of them was bronze and was absolutely terrible. Please make a fix for that

[loud seal]

i think that there should be an availability system.
like discord.

🟢 - open for invites
🟡 - afk/ currently in a match
🔴 - solo queueing

as well as it automatically gives
🚫- full party

its visible to all your friends and you can go to settlings to turn it off .

I've been wanting to get invites for a while from friends... and i don't know know to communicate that with my friends directly so i think this would be fantastic for me and a lot of people.

[opal goblet]

Can we add a bigger punishment for leaving ranked both of my team mates left me and I am guessing it was bc of I was playing light class so I lost 1,000 elo and it s not my falt

[hearty bough]

This is actually hilarious to read because most of the random diamonds/rubies I’ll get into lobbies with always talk about how many buffs light has gotten in the past 2 seasons. The H+ Infuser alone is a gargantuan buff to the class.

[honest pollen]

Buff for medium

Since medium isnt being played much beacuse of the new healing meta, i think it would be a great idea to decrease the time it takes to revive for mediums. This strengthens the mediums ability to support the team, just like it should.

[harsh cliff]

I am sorry but your ranked system is so trash, I play the whole day and because I solo queue two rounds I lose 3k points, I play with a team the whole lobby is just smurfs boosting their friends or just griefing, I swear it's just impossible to rank up. I finsh the round with 12 kills and still lose, what am I suppost to do, fk this trash stupid ranked system. the point system is just so bad, it takes 1 billion years to get 1k point and you lose it in 5 mins, how is this a fair ranked system Idk, even if I play well i still lose cause teams team up in ranked, like what the hell are these trash lobbies and trash ranked system.

[pine garden]

Jus kinda curious. Is there a technical reason why all the eye choices don't work with the arch rival face (cell shaded)? It'd be rad if they did. It's also weird imo that the glowing blues eyes work...but not the glowing purple ones. And I'd like to add, it would be sick to get a cosmetic added or make it a feature of the arch rival to add a cell shaded filter to your outfit when it's equiped

[pliant lion]

Nerf the CL40 or remove it from the game entirely please.

@wide void Tell me, what's the counterplay (for example as a L) when you basically get insta killed by it in almost every encounter? Improving aim won't help when the TTK is 0,8 and your own TTK on the medium carrying it is higher with every gun except the double barrel (except if you shoot ONLY headshots, which I'm guessing 99% of players won't be able to do). APS only helps temporarily and if you're up against one CL40, but it seems like they usually come in pairs.

I'd say to swap the damage around between the CL40 and the MGL, at least the MGL is a little more difficult to get a close hit with. The MGL requires more skill to use effectively than the CL40, purely because of the fact that the CL40's nades explode on impact. Also, the damage output even when you miss with it is way too high. You know how much damage you do when you miss with most other weapons? Right, 0. I've played a few rounds with the CL40 and it's significantly easier with that gun as compared to most other "regular" weapons.

Also, "especially above Gold" is a shit argument as very likely a majority of the playerbase is not even "above Gold". Ignoring the existance of a majority of the playerbase is probably not the best idea.

[dense totem]

Dead by season 8 gg

[shrewd patrol]

I'm deleting this game because all my skins go default when I log in

[wide void]

How many times are you going to come in here and repeat this? CL-40 is one of the worst-performing weapons in the game, especially above Gold. Stop wasting your time crying about it and either learn some of the counterplays or improve your aim.

[sand kayak]

It's a rocket propelled grenade. Propel it! Double the speed it travels

[leaden shell]

only thing that needs a nerf is light its needs to revert back to season 2 light where only good players ran the class and bad players had to resort to actually learning the game. we cant constantly keep nerfing medium and heavy this is exactly why we get 5-6 lights in one lobby now cause its the inly class that feels good anymore

[faint saddle]

I can see why you dont like lights, I would hate lights aswell If I moved like a clanker

[sturdy path]

For some reason the tab key isnt bringing up scoreboard

[raven hull]

ok, found the solution 😉

[rotund gust]

A few things used to be in the game that got removed or changed for the worse on controller.

With dpad gadget equip I can't say thanks or hype whilst dead 🙁 gotta wait til after revive to say thanks which isnt great when you're getting shot at lol

descend having conflicting binds with the ping button (both LB) has gone on waaaay too long. Let us bind ascend/descend in spectate settings!

[untold venture]

new player experience is dogshit, every single irl or friend from other games i've introduced has quit in record time, the matchmaking for "casual" modes is horrendous and drives noobs away after they get dunkied on by players who have grinded the game for hundreds if not thousands of hours and as one of those people i really don't want to contribute to the problem, add SBMM, let me play against good players and let the noobs fuck around with each other till they get gud, and before i get the "just get them to play ranked" response, no. Some casuals do not like playing for rank even if it would be a objectively better experience (low elo games are a good learning ground). If embark wants to see the player count actually grow substantially i would recommend adding SBMM in casual and tightening the seed system in ranked, im 45k why the fuck do i have actual gold or silvers in my lobbies? i don't enjoy stomping them and they definitely do not enjoy the experience either, ill take longer match making in higher elo if it means this is no longer the case

[topaz token]

I have too many cool outfits and my slots are all full, pretty please provide more slots so I don’t have to delete my precious outfits to make new ones. A hundred slots would probably be good for now. And also please let me favorite certain cosmetics, emotes, etc so they show up at the top of the list when I go to customize something!

[ruby saffron]

sorry to make a messenger for the community but the game takes you by the balls and I am the first to have made content on this game which is for me good but not enough events which are just shit weapons badly proportioned in short take another game which is worth it than a community which does not respect you I was banned for too many reports and I do not count the number of threads of puppy unblocker who cheat and who are not banned or the apex community which trash stolk in short I was also banned from this discord of incapable for I say to have made a report but to have been insulting I think that there is reason to ask questions about this game the future shows it a sad destiny

[tame vessel]

Spear: increase the first swing damage in the combo from 65 to 70 and the last one from 90 to 95 making it 70, 80, 95 and increase the spin attack damage to 120, it needs to kill a heavy with 3 hits because

Reason #1: you're vulnerable to being shot and killed during the animation

Reason #2: you move slow during the animation

Reason #3: you can't manually cancel it unless you use the communication wheel

and make the lunge speed a little faster because everytime i lunge towards my target, i don't get any closer, i've tried it on the dummies in the practice range and lastly give it a hit sweep range increase

KS-23: either give it a 1.2x headshot multiplier or decrease the fire rate to 73 RPM and increase the player damage to 120

Riot shield: increase the movement speed when blocking

R.357: increase the fire rate from 140 to 160 RPM

Dual blades: make the Deflect more consistent so it can block all melee weapons and increase the first swing damage from 50 to 55, increase the second swing damage from 60 to 65 and increase the final attack damage from 65 to 75 and make it so the final attack can be done faster and increase the movement speed when blocking and deflecting and make it so the blades deflect pellets from shotguns more consistently and accurately because right now it's bugged, it deflects one pellet and then deflects more pellets at a certain range and the bullets come out of the person's head instead of their gun at point blank range, pls fix the bug

AKM: increase magazine capacity to 34, 35 or 36, the choice is yours on what number you choose

Data Reshaper: increase the charges from 2 to 3 and decrease the cooldown from 26s to 20s

Model 1887: remove the eject-and-catch-shell reload animation and make its tactical reload like the KS-23's tactical reload and increase the fire rate to 85 RPM

[fleet socket]

Yet light has been nerfed 38 times, medium 35 and heavy 34

Also embark make the anime face be able to use all eyes

[spice linden]

Nerf melee and riot shield, its infected i cant see anyone with automatic fire gun in WT lobby, its an fps and 90% the comminuty use weapon that dont even shoot.

[plain flame]

For sum reason the game which was running fine up until this season started to run very poorly

[calm steeple]

Let us disable revive callouts especially in 5v5 modes it's so annoying when people spam it and you can't even tell who's asking to be revived lol (and it's useless in Death match why would you revive em)

[vestal rune]

pingable healing emitters,
disable revive callout on tdm

[reef lake]

charge n slam cooldown is way too quick.

[vague maple]

Please nerf riot shield, cut its length by a 3rd or a 1/4.
Its not fun to fight.

[grand temple]

Nerf sledge

[west hornet]

The game went from and FPS to a Melee competition in one update. Someone needs to get fired.

[charred rover]

Make Med the best healer again by making the healing spec a passive that lets you friendly fire health, but damage enemies.
The tradeoff is that you have to more wisely use your weapons clip. Friendly fire heals can be ~-50% of the dmg the weapon does by default.

This gives medium the coveted range heals light has, but doesn't invalidate the other healing gadgets. It also makes med healer valuable again instead of leaving demat as the common sense choice.
Else I feel med will become the flank class and light will become the primary healer

[quartz folio]

Make a competitive power shift mode

[lunar reef]

quick cash spawns are hilariously bad..not sure how we expect casuals to stay when you can spawn 10 meters from someone..or a whole team spawns where you did 7 seconds ago and chases you

[mossy mural]

Suggestion: Light class smg shouldn't be as accurate as it is from a far distance. Multiple matches where I'm being hit from +200 meters away and my health isn't being chipped but a chunck is taken

[sudden spire]

Glitch mine should have a charge that drains while it's glitching someone

[random smelt]

Very Wise words.

[ancient basin]

having a hard time getting demat to register on controller. Clicking multiple times for it to work

[frozen tree]

All melee: fix hitreg
Dagger: backstab angle increase and/or reduce backstab charge time. Also let it backstab objects please
Sword: remove clamp, remove multihit (and 140 lunge damage and reverse m1 changes)
Riot: a lot of people are complaining but im not sure if it’s powerful or just that it’s a viable melee, so uh idk
Dual blades: more accurate deflection and something to help it close gaps, it’s been in the trenches since its release
Sledge: revert the start of season nerfs
Spear: make spin cancellable

[coarse dew]

buff dagger

Backstab angle needs to be 180 degrees
Remove movement penalty from charging backstab (once it's fully charged, there is still a penalty)
Add tap to charge option (like tks)

[alpine summit]

yes but it should be optional on the game is all I’m asking but maybe that’s too much cz everyone swears the gun is perfect.

[delicate cargo]

how?

[pine garden]

stab sharper

[verbal kayak]

Another day another game against level 30 smurfs with less than 100 wins creating an "easy" lobby where my team loses 600 for THIRD PLACE but the smurfs lose nothing because they're last seed. Broken system, broken game.

[ruby dew]

game fucking sucks till we get the OG SWORD BACK!

[rapid stream]

Remove glitch trap and winch claw
Giga nerf pike

[cold bolt]

revert sword

[quartz coyote]

so are you guys never gonna add an "avoid teammate" option since the player count is low for this game? but this is something that shouldve been added since s1. like it's needed

[fading flame]

Give light a anti-material SMG that deals 2% remaining health + ~11 damage. It would also be able to destroy walls, making it the first light breaching weapon.

[lapis harness]

All heavy lmgs need a buff they need what every bullets or damage ANY PISTOLS DO like i get they have less bullets and fire rate but like come EVERY PISTOL IS more damage than every lmg?

[vale haven]

Need more loadout slots, make it 9
And it will be good to have a coat option

[jaunty tulip]

Fix sword

[kind laurel]

id love to see a whisper channel in chat to make the game more social, whispers can come from friends ofc and from enemies in match

[keen drum]

great idea

[mortal anchor]

Idk if this only happening with me especially in world tour i am constetantly getting new players with low ranks and i have Dimond rank btw 70 level still this issues persist overall gameplay is good

[wise ice]

Add a search bar in the store and for cosmetics so we can look up items by name! Would make it a bit quicker to find specific items

[vital basin]

Please make an overall QOL update. This game needs it.

[unreal epoch]

Give 2 Frag Grenades back with a slightly longer cooldown (I think 25 seconds is fair)

[umbral swift]

Sword requires 70+ damage on Primary Attack (PA) and 140+ damage on Secondary Attack (SA) to be viable.

• To be viable VS
  • Heavy, SA x2 + PA must be ≥ 350
  • Medium, SA + QM + PA must be ≥ 250
• AKA, SA must deal 140+/PA must be ≥ 70

Rotation Clamp must be removed for Secondary Attack to be viable for combat.

• A tiny sidestep makes it impossible to land
• You can’t even look at anyone not on your FOV
• Vertical rotation clamp only has 2 uses:
  • Adjusting ground lunge distance
    • Flick up to ensure max possible distance
    • Flick down to reduce lunge distance
  • Hitting someone above/below you mid-air
    • Mid-air lunge causes no movement
    • Only works if already in melee range
• Every single ranged/melee can 360°
  • Ranged? Turn and keep shooting
  • Melee? 360° mid-active hitbox
    • Sword Primary Attack can do this too
• Primary Attack spam is less skillful, less counterable, and less fun for both sides
  • Primary Attack
    • No charge-up, can be spammed any time
    • Works even without cover
    • Works even if Glitched
  • Secondary Attack
    • Charge-up time forces using cover/Dash
    • Flicks only change Sword hitbox direction
    • Only Dash/Grapple changes where you move
    • If you can’t use Specializations, you lose

maybe a way to alternate between firing modes ? kinda like the prowler in Apex

[waxen verge]

Is the new profile system going to be worldwide or is it exclusive to China?
I'd love to use it as well, but there's no rush.

[trim glacier]

Is there ever going to be a release of the game servers? I know that this game has particularly heavy server-side code for all the destruction, but it would be great to have community servers and even mods, like cs
also for when official servers go down but hopefully that's not for ages

[fleet meadow]

fix fn backstab already, ppl getting killed straight in face

A bit of Objective points while trying to steal a cashout would be nice

[flat tusk]

I love the new marble statue cosmetics, but is there a reason why they both share the same emote? I figured the other would have a different scroll that said "NOT GUILTY"

[tiny iron]

Reduce snipe damage from 25 meters and lower

[alpine summit]

I’m trusting y’all to buff medium or just to make it better next season

[echo panther]

new medium specialization aoe stim boost like 7m buffing teammates with a little speed or any other buff like activating it would start the healthregen a little faster

In season 8 could you show the last time players were active.
Mainly in the club section, I want to be able to make room for new/more active players.
Some of my members probably haven't played since s5.

[remote loom]

After using the riot shield exclusively for a week I can confidently say that it is a strong weapon, and if your opponent is not using a riot shield, spear, sledgehammer, or an explosive weapon, then the opponent loses no matter what. And, riot shield users can protect themselves while pressuring the opponent by just looking in a certain direction so the riot shield protects the player while they rush the opponent. I feel that this weapon requires some balancing, but I do not have suggestions on how to balance this weapon, because it’s just that tricky to balance.

And by the way, the duel swords for medium are balanced, they require no changes.

I trust you embark, keep making this game great

wtf is this event embark? sure make everyone use the already annoying af riot shield

Sword needs further buff to 140 lunge and no locked sweep arc on lunge…. So many misses because of the angle lock now. Garbage….

[novel brook]

guys my friend having acces violation while launching the game

[stuck glacier]

i love this game but please rebalance the melee weapons, every single lobby is using them and i want to use actual guns in an fps game

[somber vine]

Just wanted to say...

The song "8bithighway" Is epic!

The music in this game really stands out! Amazing work 🥰

[smoky gust]

just had a match with clan stacks, it felt better than usually because our team had one too
im not sure if it was random or intended, i hope for the latter

it still not without problems, as always running into duo's that never split apart, unlike randoms, or trying to attack a coordinate defence on the platform remains harder, and callouts occasionally get you killed where you wouldve regenerated in safety with any other team
it would be nice if there was some redeeming factor to make the time spend more worth while (since the stacked team also gets an xp boost for it)

[digital yoke]

25th anniversary essay on ks-23

ks-23 has become ridiculously simple, and because of that, you could say it's too powerful. Now when I shoot at players, I'm just playing aimlabs. That's all. Never before have lights turned into figures as quickly as with today's hitscan ks-23. (In the very first power shift game, my score was 19/2 with almost 10k damage, and I wasn't playing against newbies, as is often the case with balance irony).
I just don't understand why, instead of changing the winch (namely its mechanics) to make its use more skill-dependent and reduce the so-called frustration of casual players at the end of the hook, you cut out entire mechanics of animation cancellation, which were an integral part of the game (an indicator of skill), and change/kill weapons to the point where they no longer give fun from playing with them?
Projectile ks-23 was great from the second or third season onwards. Despite the difficulty in mastering it, it paid off in full with the power hidden within it. I'm sure its pickrate, KD, and win-loss ratio have always been lower than the rest since then, because only a few could play it well.
Let it stay that way. This shotgun shouldn't become another point-and-click toy for meta slaves. All the tier lists are already overflowing with shooting sticks from COD. Enough of this crap.
It's a shame there are no more videos from heavyenjoyer, which I would like to show as the most accurate vibe of The Finals at the moment.

fix the sworddd plsssssssssssssssssss

HUGE ISSUE FOUND; nobody has noticed this b4 but theres a huge issue with SA12 rn it releases smoke when u fire . that smoke takes away aim assist for controller players idek if this is intentional but wanted to point it out b4 lan

[hearty bough]

Riot shield hit character model rotation is bugged but it’s still highly counterable - needs a fix but full disable would be overkill

https://youtu.be/mGZQDWOFc1Q

[sonic arrow]

Make pike and v9s play more around getting frequent headshots like their DMR/handgun counterparts

v9s plays like a semi-auto smg while pike plays like a long range bodyshot demon, so lessening the visual recoil, lowering the damage and increasing the headshot multipliers should fulfill the skill expression method these weapons both desire

adding more sights for both guns (pike especially) would help with this as well

Im practically begging to be killed by playing the sword, It limits my movements so much all the while I have to try and not get one shotted doing so. If you want to nerf sword nerf it in a good way that doesn't fk with the playstyle of the sword all that much such as reducing how much damage multi-hit does per person. or just remove it genuinely I'd prefer that more like it was in the old days.

[upbeat pulsar]

Fix this game

[dawn valve]

Demat needs to be nerfed. It is WAY to versatile both offensively and defensively, just like winch. Its far too easy to chase down fleeing lights, or drop someone down to melee them, and there's NO warning. Make a delay before complete dematerialization, with a visual indicator. Demat probably has a pickrate of 75%+, while your stupid "healing for all" update dropped heal beam usage way down. Mediums are support, and demat is too offensively beneficial to be on a support class.

[strong talon]

@storm tide THIS!! BRING BACK DEAD GO BOOM!

Also stop that crutch L shotgun from 2 shotting a full health heavy.

[mental delta]

Change (almost) all the other models/skins for the Model 1887 to match the Dough Wrangler and Impact Warning/Eclipse Shade skins and their animations

These are pretty much the only skins people buy, let alone use for the dang gun and almost all the skins for it could easily be converted without much loss (except the Diskette Bezel and Virtual Extension and probably a couple others I’m forgetting)

Cons: you’d have to remodel/retexture almost every skin for the model, progressions included

Pros: not only will people use the weapon way more, so you can probably get better data for it, they are far more likely to buy other skins for it that aren’t just those two. I think the fact you guys made ANOTHER skin with the same animations shows how popular it is. This weapon really is a case where these two skins are honestly so good it’s like why even bother with the others, which I never see anyone do. Keep the stock animations for a select few skins and convert the rest and it will breathe new life into the weapon

Ultimate Battlepass bonus pages should also be included. I get fair enough on no multi bucks but without the bonus pages it's feels paying 1150 MB is lots. Its just a thought as it would be very nice if you guys kindly also include the bonus pages so paying 1150 feels a good deal. Thank You 😌😌

You guys ever notice when ever the community complains about a weapon embark usually drops an event or mode that is centred around that weapon that everyone has an issue with like this current world tour and the cl40 event

[hollow kelp]

medium has so many different playstyles, it's not just a support class. I agree to buff heal beam and turret but to lock medium into a support class would be so boring. also adding a delay to demat would make it feel so bad to play

[wet gust]

Please nerf riot sheild… there is little to nothing to counter it….

[boreal rivet]

Dude, There is Jinko video telling EXACTLY HOW TO COUNTER RIOT SHIELD. If you are have severe issues with it, you are experiencing a SKILL ISSUE and you need to run riot shield yourself to LEARN how people counter it. Nothing is overpowered, you have to learn, adapt, and overcome. Good luck out there and feed those metal sled riders a knuckle sandwich

[worldly pumice]

please please remove the spinning attack from the spear and give it a stab or a javelin throw

Bonus pages were introduced in season 2 cause people finished the base battle pass too quickly and it was meant to be a grind, so I can see why they left those out for people who play a good amount during the season.

[coral apex]

okay

[bold berry]

Please nerf shield.. there is barely no counter for that.. run yes.. get gooed and die.. and now you can see them swinging in the air and getting hits.. please rever this

6/8 weeks of WT have been standard cash out btw

Season 7 is MID MID MID (except the new map)

Change my mind

[round isle]

Yeah I thought that was strange too. One of them should be not guilty

@pliant lion the biggest counterplay for cl40 is aps or standing on higher ground than the user

[flat tusk]

Been waiting a long time for this monster battle

[fiery beacon]

You are joking, the counter is to have better movement ? Run away and kite, so basically get out of the fight ? And pray for a teammate to kill it ? This is terrible gameplay. If we had something like a termite, like you have in some cod games it would be berable. Like this this is the most annoying weapon I can remember in fps game. Give me noobtubes all day instead of this

[narrow belfry]

It’s insane to me that I just lost a game to teams cheating and teaming and helping them steal the box from my team legit a 6v3 the gameplay in ranked in this game is horrible from absolute terrible spawns to ppl straight teaming and cheating to grief you out nun of this is skill just straight RNG and cheaters

[primal mantle]

just delete the riot from the game

[tacit fern]

yes pls

[paper wagon]

Can we seriously get a avoid list in this game

[sonic warren]

Call me cringe but i genuinlly think there needs to be a limit of how many classes can be on a team. Teams of all lights are fucking terrible

[rugged ginkgo]

Riot shields are chew toys if you play flamethrower. I run it a lot and I love seeing medium melees. They are just free kills. They stand basically no chance

[hallow wyvern]

Bruuuh i have this problem with legacy battle pass i have bought the UFO bundle the jump pad and the aliens celebration but the legacy BP says i need to buy them again with show token how ?????

[analog fog]

embark logic be like "recon sense is broken, lets get it out of the game" meanwhile sonar grenades, tracking darts, motion sensors......

[alpine summit]

Yeah I gotta hang it up 🤣 bcz no way they’ll make that happen. Well a guy can dream i guess.

[untold venture]

In its current state the only real counter is flamethrower because of the buggy ass shield hitbox, if you play in a stack its much easier to counter but still broken, the fact that the shield hitbox does not match the visual of the shield (it covering like 70% of the body when looking sideways but not looking like it does) is extremely frustrating, embark please fix

[safe ravine]

I absolutely love this game, but it really is shadowed by everything. The finals doesn't make much noise, I hope it'll change after/during the major. And the funny thing is, its a GEM. Feels good to play, potential is endless, good variety of weapons/classes/ways to play. Magnificent destruction like no other game. WHAT THA FAK
It's just is horrible for the ranked experience cuz i always get into sweaty ahh games with the same players, or alt accounts that are smurfing. There is no middle ground, its either easy to the extreme against rather new players, or hard af against rubys. Clearly indicates a lack of players.

I hope Embark is cooking something huge for the future, some kind of map creator like Portal, community servers would be huge.
I'm positive it's the game of the decade, in terms of mechanics, potential... (everything really).

A suggestion of mine would be that for the next big season/event, need to do a trailer more clear and slow paced: with lots of intriguing lore elements. The trailers that we have are too nerve-wracking and u can barely understand whats going on, what it is about or what is the point? (for first time viewers or people that forgot about the finals)
I think a change in that direction would be nice. Why not introduce a gamemode more slow paced with no (or limited) gadgets and specializations. (Imo that can be appealing to new players)

Also I kind of want this game to develop like Warframe, as weird as it sound. Atleast, that we get dojo/homebase for the clan and that u can customize the layout, and have: parkour rooms with leaderboards, 1v1 rooms, room that gives us a peak into the meatspace etc...
Develop the lore
PvE modes
More community events
The Finals is too good to stay a 1 layered game of fps.

riot needs a new hitbox update. its getting out of hand running in to 3 teams running riots every game. also. day 500 of asking for a wench balance or to bring back stun gun for light since its literally less powerful but somehow heavies bitcehdf enough to get it nerfed into a completely different gadget

[ornate roost]

get heavu with flamethrower?

[wispy silo]

Please for the love of god change the riot and maybe remove it while changes are being made because it is genuinely impossibly to fight against and every match I’ve played in the past three days has had a riot user on an enemy team

[fading flame]

1. More throwing knife animations.
2. Nerf ARN-220 fire rate, but make the flip mag reload faster.
3. Decrease the M60 damage from 20 to 19, and increase the magazine size to 90.
4. Make the SR-84 projectile start from closer.
5. Give light a anti-material SMG that deals 2% remaining health + ~11 damage. It would also be able to destroy walls, making it the first light breaching weapon.

[near swallow]

Why does stun get rework but winch can cancel and stun? 9/10 heavies using it in ranked / wt. Getting tired off it being a constant opener.

[uneven dagger]

All I ask from the sound team, dont ever get rid of the violins in your tracks PLEASE

[ripe gulch]

Recruit & Rise should be reworked - Having you only pick from your friend's list does not help new players. It should instead ask new players and recruiters to opt in and once they do, then new players can be paired with a new recruiter. The current process requires you to already know a new player and if you don't then you won't be able to gain the rewards. I've been trying to find random new players online and have also asked in this server for new players and that just isn't helpful.

[umbral swift]

Sword requires 70+ on Primary Attack (PA) and 140+ on Secondary Attack (SA) to be viable.

• To be viable VS
  • Heavy: SA x2 + PA must be ≥ 350
  • Medium: SA + QM + PA must be ≥ 250
• AKA, SA must be ≥ 140/PA must be ≥ 70

Rotation Clamp must be removed for Secondary Attack to be viable for combat.

• A tiny sidestep makes it impossible to land
• You can’t even look at anyone not on your FOV
• Vertical rotation clamp only has 2 uses:
  • Adjusting ground lunge distance
    • Flick up to ensure max possible distance
    • Flick down to reduce lunge distance
  • Hitting someone above/below you mid-air
    • Mid-air lunge causes no movement
    • Only works if already in melee range
• Every single ranged/melee can 360°
  • Ranged? Turn and keep shooting
  • Melee? 360° mid-active hitbox
    • Sword Primary Attack can do this too

Primary Attack spam is less skillful, less counterable, and less fun for both sides.

• Primary Attack
  • No charge-up, can be spammed any time
  • Works even without cover
  • Works even if Glitched
• Secondary Attack
  • Charge-up time forces using cover/Dash
  • Flicks only change Sword hitbox direction
  • Only Dash/Grapple changes where you move
  • If you can’t use Specializations, you lose

[mortal ginkgo]

game feedback? rework the riot shield hitbox to where it accurately fits the riot shield. there shouldnt be an instance where im shooting the back of someones head and the riot shield tanks all the bullets when i dont even hit the riot shield

good game 👍

[gloomy halo]

Roll cerb back to the previous patch. It’s worthless.

[random smelt]

Why do I have to try this hard just to kill one person? Where if I choose any other non melee weapon I dont? Note: I use smoke so that they do see me coming from a few meters away and one shot me I do this so I could at least close the distance between me and the enemy (usually wide open area maps). Shouldn't I have more of an advantage in close proximity? Its like the Sword is being tailored to just Exist if you want a hard time cause the movement with it feels super sluggish now more than ever. Remove this Lock it has.

[primal narwhal]

Could we please get an in game leaderboard for the big box battles?? For all the different levels of difficulty too.

Got my game to stop crashing my entire PC after a few matches (1-8) by using -d3d11 launch option. (No it's not thermal, I checked)
Please fix DX12 because the frame rate on 11 is significantly (30%) lower.

[plucky radish]

I'd like to ask, in ranked matches, why do I have to be punished for quitting if my teammate quits halfway through the game?

[twin helm]

smoke thermal is way too strong with little counter play

[loud horizon]

Work on anticheat asia is flooded with cheaters

My bad I mean the Legacy Battlepass. It has no multibucks I completely understand and fair enough but they should have included the bonus pages so that spending 1150 multibucks on it feels legit

STOP PLACING US WITH PEOPLE WHO NEED HELP. EVERY TIME I SOLO QUEUE, ITS WITH PEOPLE WITH ONLY 10ISH WINS. I KNOW YOU PLACE THEM WITH US SO THEY CAN GET HELP BUT IT RUINS THE GAME FOR US TO CONSTANTLY HAVE TO CARRY EVERYONE.

ASIAN SERVERS

[olive adder]

the game is unplayable, 40 fps, fix the optimization, i was playing with 80-90 fps before the summer, i dont know what are you doing with your game but i cannot play since the past month

[potent solar]

tried the battlefield beta, then opened the finals in comparison. I much prefer the finals when I get a decent server. You guys really need to fix the fundamentals because when its good its pretty much the best and when its bad its bottom of the pack. Battlefield is more consistent and I prefer it to playing on a bad server.

The google data center in Dallas seems to be the worst for me from the mtn west. It doesn't feel laggy per se but my bullets literally go through people and my mouse feels more slippery making it frustrating. I usually get good servers for my first 1 or 2 games on then probably 80-90% are bad for the night.

[sterile canopy]

Mouse feels more slippery? Your camera movement is not affected by your connection to the servers at all

[safe ravine]

I thought a day like this wouldn't come, I was wrong. Great that a big content creator talked about it! The Finals really need the exposure. I really hope this is the beginning of a bigger community.

Edit: As of now, the player count hasn't changed 🥲

[pseudo latch]

Ability concept: Rubble Raiser

This is an idea that sort of encompasses a little of everything heavy is designed to do, something between charge and slam, winch claw, and mesh shield.

Upon ability activation, heavy enters a half second “wind-up” animation where he gets ready to rush forward. On completion, heavy lunges up to 5 meters in the direction of his crosshair, with the intent of colliding with either structure or a player.

Upon colliding with a breakable structure, heavy will rip a chunk of the wall out, bracing it as a shield. For up to ten seconds, heavy will hold it in front of him as a 500 HP barricade, blocking enemy fire from their knees to their neck. Heavy can move and aim the shield about as if he was holding up a mesh shield during this time, though their movespeed is notably reduced. If the specialization input is pressed at all during this time, heavy will throw the rubble forwards, dealing 100 damage and high structural damage to whatever it hits. The rubble has weight similar to the grav cube, meaning you can’t throw it very far.

Upon hitting an enemy, heavy will lift and immediately throw the enemy the same way they would a rubble chunk, with the same mass. Upon collision with anything, that enemy takes 100 damage. If they hit another enemy player, both take 100 damage. If they hit a breakable surface, they will break through it, taking the damage then. Enemies cannot break through more than one structure per throw. Enemies caught by the throw cannot shoot while heavy is holding them, or until they land.

This specializations short range and requirement to connect will give it decent skill requirement, but high skill expression, and significant versatility in lots of scenarios.

[shadow creek]

Here is just an idea. If you block someone in game, what about you can't be on the same team ever again. Well maybe if you at some point unblock them. Just an idea.

[vapid pine]

Remove riot shield

GIVE US A VILLAIN IN THE FINALS LORE!

[fleet socket]

Could we make it so if people quit out the game they aren't permanently disconnected? Bro quit to Minecraft during the first round and even though we passed onto round 2 as a 2 men team I couldn't quit without getting a penalty cause he stayed disconnected all the way till the end of round 2, forcing us to be stuck waiting out the timer from not able to win 2v3s.
Just let us quit world tour no matter what after someone else leaves, disconnected or left.

[analog hinge]

on pc, is there any way to enable a more precise sensitivity adjustment? perhaps through config in the files because the slider is only whole digits but i need 13.125. new to this game anybody got somethin?

[green summit]

W game fr fr, altho playing double barrel is too op for light, two shotting mediums and occasionally a heavy in wt or ranked is way to broken fr, 600 hours in the game tho and very very fun. :D oh and also maybe let medium heal better.
also i would think it would be cool to change stats for weapons specifically for ranked so people dont complain about balance in casual bc casual is supposed to be casual

[inland maple]

nerf dual blade

[cobalt summit]

Melee Weapons

Dual blades
Increase the range and accuracy of which it can deflect make it so if you hit a critical hit, you take no damage the final slash is now activated by holding down mouse one or right trigger and does however much damage you’ve built up it’s 30 extra damage per attack main damage increased to 60
increase main damage by 10 for every consecutive hit but if you miss the boost for the main damage is gone

Riot shield
You can now sprint and you can block all damage even fire the hit box is increased by 10% in all directions
Main damage increased to 108
When you get hit through the visor, you take 10% damage and no head shots

Sword
Base damage increased to 140
Lunge range increased to 15 m
Lunge damage increased to 149
Cannot dash during attack

Dagger
Make it so you have to be standing right behind them (0.5 m) and looking at their back and it automatically charges it and you can’t hold it while it’s charging it disable cloaking and it takes 0.19-0.22 seconds to charge but immediately discharges as soon as you look away from their back while charging and stabbing you cannot use any specializations
if you backstab anywhere before or after 0.19-0.22 seconds it only deals 209 damage (before you call BS have you heard of the SH 1900) and the main attack now deals 74 damage (you cannot quick melee until the entire animation is finished even after the attack happened)

Hammer
Main damage increased to 200
Secondary damage increased to 308
If you attack while standing on the floor your attacks will make a scraping sound

Spear
Main damage increased to 108 120 140
Secondary damage increased to 140

(All secondary abilities are now activated by holding down left click or right trigger.
And all melee weapons can now block they cannot block bullets. They take 80% less damage from each other. Excluding dagger, this weapon cannot be blocked or block but they can be Perryed
Riot shield cannot parry)

Perry it allows you to stun your enemy and take no damage the last for 0.5 Seconds it is activated by double tapping block You can also Perry bullets, but you still take damage unless it’s dual blades or sword which can also deflect but only when you Perry you cannot spam Perry if you block there’s a cool down for Perry ing for 0.6 seconds if you are perryed you can still move You just can’t attack for 0.5 seconds Perry takes 0.5 seconds

Reload is now dodge dodging makes it so you cannot take any melee damage and take 50% less ranged damage after you dodge you cannot attack for 0.6 seconds you can only roll every 0.3 seconds dodging makes you move 1.5m with a roll

Attacking now takes 50% longer, and your camera speed is set to 10 While attacking

While using a melee weapon, you passively take 40% less melee damage and heavys take 50% Less damage from melee

While using a melee weapon you’re constantly in the 3rd person

You can headshot with melee weapon for 1.5x damage this is to encourage players to aim up so you can crouch to dodge

Lunge now has 4x as much range for all melee weapons and if you’re looking directly at an opponent, it is 8x as strong this is because I made it slower and it would be practically useless against people with range

Delete aim assist for Melee

You cannot animation cancel with anything

Cannot use specializations during attacks

Cannot quick melee during attacks

[tall herald]

whoever thought the after game credits are a good and whoever coded that after blocking someone you cant report them, should get fired, wtf is this? shortly after seeing your team for 15secs there is a short screen which want to skip to get to report hackers or annoying teammates but if you skip it, you skip the whole chart, get this right, this is so annoying and do more against hackers and teammates that are playing for the enemy
wow and you cant even unblock ingame to report that miserable teammate who just spammed and played for the enemy... good one

Hello

[coral swan]

give us middle east servers!!!!

[topaz jungle]

Increased server latency can cause a delay in inputs, creating a “swimmy” feel. Some folks are more sensitive to it than others…but it’s a pretty big problem for a game that wants to be competitive.

[grand crow]

Small things I'd like to call attention to:

Dagger (please stop nerfing it, it was already the weakest weapon in the game lol)

Equipment wheel on K&M (doesn't actually allow use to select gear)

Sword (Insanely strong thanks to the m1, but the lunge feels terrible now)

Spear (m2 hitreg, as per usual)

Demat (still OP, way too versatile with no drawbacks)

Winch claw (so good you have to balance heavy cqc around it, making them completely dependant on it)

That's all, keep up the great work

Also, please give us specializations in season 8, I can't wait another season, it's been 7 already since light got anything 🙏

[coral apex]

What is with the gateway not deploying sometimes when I throw it? Like if I've thrown the first one why does the second one not like activate for some reason it happens like 1/5th of the time but it's really frustrating when it does happen

[delicate pasture]

Embark are useless. Many of us are quitting the game because of the stupid decisions they make. It's getting worse, and they still haven't removed the Cl-40 from the game. They're truly a group of useless incompetents who don't want to see the game flourish. Many new players stop playing when they find themselves with the Cl-40 and other broken weapons.

[fathom trout]

Whoever decided the riot shield got $1k in world tour should be fired.

[tepid summit]

Can u guys stop balancing the game like its an esport, make the weapons feel fun and never touch them again, yeah there will be weapons that are a bit more strong and some that are more weak, ITS PERFECT THAT WAY, make the game to be feeling like season 3 and you are golden, yeah the kids that play comp will complain, but your game is made to be casual so lean into it before your game dies out like every other casual game thats gone competitive

[digital shoal]

Map event idea...
Forced teammate load swap. Mid round, all of a sudden the event triggers and you have to figure out how to play with your teammates loadout. i.e. you were Heavy Wench, but now you are a Light Cloak. What do you do!?

I'm not sure if these are heard, but I think that integration with medal.tv. There are some great creators on there like @gilded juniper, and we have a community that is very active there around the finals! If you look at some other games like Rocket league, they have some really cool tools such as when you take a clip, it can show you other people who were in that game that you can tag from that clip who are also on medal. They also have tools which are camera tools with the replays. Medal will also help with the sharing and posting ease of use of the game. I think it would be great with the E-sports going forward!

[harsh cliff]

The game is just smurfs and cheaters, ranked should be removed from the game, who is competing ?? Cheaters and smurfs ? Me as a solo queue player what do i do to be able to rank up? İ play i get over 10 kills a round, and i still lose cause players against me are just smurfs on gold lobby it's so disgusting, i swear to God the ranked experience is the most trash experience i have ever seen

Looks like they cracked the anticheat again. Botters running wild today

[random smelt]

There isnt really a safe way to do that as far as I know. But the game I think has built in aim smooth which can mess up peoples raw aim so If you find your aim feeling off its probably that. To disable it go to search bar type in %localappdata% open the folder look for Dicovery as thats the finals folder click Saved -> config -> WindowsClient -> GameUserSettings scroll to the bottom I chose and made space inbetween bConsole120HzModeEnabled=False and [ScalabilityGroups] so then paste in everything after the arrow -> [/script/engine.inputsettings]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=False now go to file top left and click save.

[zealous mural]

And again. 30k-50k kills against me, me 10k with the 5-10k teammates. TWO WEEKS IN A ROW, EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY. Fix. your. dogshit. matchmaking. P.S. one of them is a FUCKING RUBY PLAYER. @novel trench so you rly think me, a casual player, should come back after 2 month afk, and CONSTANTLY play against ppl who are 0.0001% and play this game 6-12h a day? every single day, almost in every single match. Keep thinking that, but then don't cry about this game completely dying, 2 of my friends already left ONLY because of this shit, and i'm on the verge as well. this is unplayable for me, i don't want to waste my time getting obliterated for someone elses fun on daily basis. it's not a 1 time thing, it's a constant shit. Keep whiteknighting tho

Man, I've been spamming ranked and this game is completely destroyed by cheaters, matchmaking and sweats. I totally understand the people quitting The Finals.
I am high gold/low plat player, CONSTANTLY getting paired against with these types of players. No human being playing this game, with normal matchmaking, with similar ranking. NO
IT HAS TO BE CHEATERS and RUBYS

FIX THIS EMBARK
Shadow ban suspected smurfs, ban cheaters and allow only 1 rank difference MAX in matches!!

It's not that hard! We know there isnt many players playing this game, its FINE. No need to hide it with short queue times, just make QUALITY matches PLEASE

[wary flax]

Nerf Evasive Dash, nerf 93R, nerf SH1900, nerf HP regeneration and remove Winch Claw from the game.

[delicate notch]

I do not like the current world tour event. that's all.

Love the raygun skins, next you should do minigun or lewis

this sounds really fun but i think it would fit best as a wt stop or something..if it was a permanent event i think thatd get annoying

[peak tusk]

Check performance on Windows.

The game is constantly freezing on random moments, mostly in Kyoto map.

Been happening since a couple patchs ago.

Love u embark

[odd ibex]

Add kusarigama for light OR MEDIUM class,primary attacks hit like sword but alt attack is u spin the chain and blade 160 degrees in front of u and most damage ONLY where blade hits NOT the WHOLE 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,a mix of projectile and melee.

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

[obtuse girder]

Not related to gamePLAY but embark REALLY needs to advertise again, the finals is in a really good spot right now and honestly no one I know in real life knows about the game. If they marketed the finals again it (could) boom in popularity

[hard magnet]

I have a suggestion for a world tour week i think could be cool: High Spender (kinda bad name idk)

but basically every 5 minutes or so your team can take a vote to spend a collective amount of money (i think maybe 5000-7500, maybe more maybe less) to get 50, or maybe more, overheal

It’d be risky for people in 2nd place or in matches where everyone has gotten a cashout, but could definitely backfire if one team has like $50,000, so it may be best to raise the prices based on match progression or team cash total? Feel free to give feedback on this idea if anyone wants to, i’d like to see if anyone thinks this is a good idea or needs tweaks.

[shadow harness]

Game feedback:

My god, what a game. It is possibly the only game that I’ll never get tired of. It truly is the world’s greatest game show. The destruction is incredible, the gameplay is balanced for the most part, and the character customisation is on another level. I feel like more ARs or SMGs could be added, but other than that nothing else I can really say about the finals 😄 I’ve only recently got into ranked mode, so I can’t really say much about that at the moment, but so far it’s pretty fun.

[proven crown]

On Seoul apartments, and other maps - there are invisible ledgers which are super useful because it helps you scale levels easily - problem is they're invisible so new players don't understand that these things are possible because why would they? Perhaps make them clearer

[hidden swan]

Hey Busy People !

Can we have a separate chat in which we can talk with someone from the tech team, run third party softwares with the game itself,

Will help in increasing the security and adaptability with the game

[fair shuttle]

Still waiting for the Stockholm map

[sterile tendon]

Servers please. And matchmaking deep fix: lvl 88 paired with someone who had 4 kills in total

[prime fable]

would be cool if there was a hint on what cosmetics are compatible with what, so that you dont have to trial and error all of them.

this is especially unintuitive with a lot of the "slim" face and head covering where one works while the other doesn't.

i could also ask to "make all of them compatible" but that might be too much of a rework which could bring too much needless hassle for the devs, especially since some would have more alternative style to prevent clipping and make the combo look more believable.

this also affects some upper body cosmetics, and a few lower body ones, as well as back cosmetics. would be a neat little QoL

i made a mockup design, its not very true to the games artstyle, but hopefully it gets the point across.

EDIT: Also, some of the Facewear cosmetics take up the entire head without allowing for headwear combinations (like the ENGIMO DAEMON). id be in favor of moving them to the Headwear section instead to avoic confusion. many masks in the headwear section could also greatly benefit from the move to facewear to enable more combination with little to no need to change models (like the overburn mask, cns anonymask and all of the balaclavas)

[foggy panther]

Would you please look into thermite bore upgrade… I feel that it should also be able to hit the players not just wall… I don’t even care if it’s low damage… but like you can’t even shoot the riot shied width it

[jagged vector]

Healing needs to be passive, as soon as you get shot all healing should stop, mmh all with healing is so dumb

[potent solar]

just.. confidently wrong. this has long been a criticism of the game since release, the quality of the server you get affects the way aiming and shooting feels. its possible you won't notice it all that much if you only use automatic weapons in silver lobbies

if the connection puts a 100ms delay on your mouse movement you will move it faster to compensate. if that delay varies from 100ms to 10 to 50 to 250 you will overshoot and undershoot because you are subconsciously compensating for one delay time or another. this will cause an imprecise, slippery feeling. if its consistently slow it will cause the common 'mouse through molasses' feeling. either way if it gets too high your mouse will feel disconnected.

this can be caused by variations in frame time or anything else that results in asynchronous delays. one server location in particular for me causes this issue while frame time and ping stay the same, reconnecting to a game is the only thing that has been shown to improve it.

• reply because its gonna take 5 hrs... if you haven't noticed this at all by now I don't know what to tell you. you're on a different planet than the rest of us. go look at shrouds vods when he first tried the game or anyone else decent at fps and they say the same thing

[pale slate]

5v5 ranked playlist!! Pls pls pls

[sterile canopy]

It doesn’t. You can lose connection entirely, or have an incredibly poor one, and camera movement will be entirely unaffected. I have clips of both circumstances if necessary.

[hallow turret]

that is literally how it already works

[paper meadow]

Just played another match of WT where I loaded in and both of my teammates are missing. The number of times this happens in WT, a team starting the game with one or more teamates completely missing, is astounding. It’s probably one in four games if I had to quantify it. I’m not talkin’ leavers either, because that happens all the time. I’m talking players not being placed on teams in time for the match to start. Teams being down one or more player from the very beginning.

This is a major issue, and I’m in NA too which is a pretty active region and I’ve got reasonably hefty internet so it’s not on my end. Maybe the game needs to wait longer to be sure players can be connected before starting the game? Needs work.

Also, totally agree with @prime fable I would love to see better info on whats compatible with what. The head/face, and back/crossbody categories have gotten muddier and muddier. And why are watches and wrist two separate categories if neither can ever be used together? And on top of all that there was that big split in body and face paints a few months back and yet there are still plenty of face paints permanently glued to body paints (soul harmony ink and its s5 variant, null adornment, kabuki prime, protocol faceplate.) And and the sacred shadow and ivada warden body paints from s5 both lock out all face paints even though they both stop at the neck. Could use some attention for sure.

[rain leaf]

Why 0% visibility on smoke ? Can we have something on screen to play or what ?

[jaunty fern]

fix riot shield

[fading flame]

Decrease the damage of the sword to 84, and make it attack slightly slower.

[smoky gust]

It would be nice to have more reliable smoke grenades

I would turn its border into a solid wall that cannot be seen through at all
You cant see the inside from the ouside and vice versa depending on light level
Maybe also decrease the opacity while inside to make getting close a more reliable counter to smoke steal attempts

[tacit whale]

I noticed you can counter the riot shield by shooting their feet which works quite well but you can’t against the dual blades.. this literally makes no sense. You should make it so they have to crouch to deflect against low shots. If you add this to the dual blades I think it’ll balance it out nicely, it feels really cheesy to play against at the moment.

[mild root]

I just want bank it back 🥲🥲🥲🥲

[coarse scroll]

please add small little goblins to the finals and make them evil please

[ruby moon]

add Titanfall 2 EPG

[ruby dew]

Thanks for killing the most fun weapon in the finals, fucking idiots.
RIP Sword

[lapis harness]

Spear needs a nerf/change. it should not have a 360 damage with no stop clips through walls n then some along with 360 3rd person free cam so they can easily tell when to keep going or stop. Like yall limited the swords ability to turn/look well lunging but let heavy’s keep 3rd person free cam.
The spear should only do damage in-front with no 3rd person
Or it should be a throw able weapon with a charge up time like dagger or sword so they actually have to plan how to use it vs stacking barricades around a room and just constantly dancing around so the second you walk in to that maze you’re getting hit threw barricades

[queen stone]

Yeah the sword change is just not fun, locking the movement weapon to 40 degrees effectively kills what it had going for it and no amount of damage changes can compensate for the movement restrictions. Any person using the sword would much rather use it from version 7.5 then 7.6.

Melee in general needs a lot of work but this change shows the lack of care for melee.

[umbral swift]

Sword requires 70+ on Primary Attack (PA) and 140+ on Secondary Attack (SA) to be viable.

• To be viable VS
  • Heavy: SA x2 + PA must be ≥ 350
  • Medium: SA + QM + PA must be ≥ 250
• AKA, SA must be ≥ 140/PA must be ≥ 70

Rotation Clamp must be removed for Secondary Attack to be viable for combat.

• A tiny sidestep makes it impossible to land
• You can’t even look at anyone not on your FOV
• Vertical rotation clamp only has 2 uses:
  • Adjusting ground lunge distance
    • Flick up to ensure max possible distance
    • Flick down to reduce lunge distance
  • Hitting someone above/below you mid-air
    • Mid-air lunge causes no movement
    • Only works if already in melee range
• Every single ranged/melee can 360°
  • Ranged? Turn and keep shooting
  • Melee? 360° mid-active hitbox
    • Sword Primary Attack can do this too

Primary Attack spam is less skillful, less counterable, and less fun for both sides.

• Primary Attack
  • No charge-up, can be spammed any time
  • Works even without cover
  • Works even if Glitched
• Secondary Attack
  • Charge-up time forces using cover/Dash
  • Flicks only change Sword hitbox direction
  • Only Dash/Grapple changes where you move
  • If you can’t use Specializations, you lose

[grave sierra]

add throwing arcs to c4 and breach charge pwetty pwease

Take riot shields out or at least buff them and lights knife is way to OP

[mossy mural]

Honestly I can start to see why new players are coming and leaving. The third party in this game is atrocious. Multiple times we are fighting two teams for one box only to come out victorious then the last team wipes us. Theres alway a team skating by while three teams fight for one cashout so winning a gun fight means nothing

[dawn valve]

Can you please fix your fucking game? Its great when every heavy can RPG a light then instant winch and kill them. Heavy is supposed to be a TANK class. Tank classes DONT GET INSTAKILLS

[thorny apex]

undo 7.6 as bad as sword was this is worse i would rather 105 lunges and it be viable

[drifting belfry]

Can we get an option to disable queuing matches in progress already?

[analog wigeon]

May as well list my grievances here
-the Bow and the Throwing Knives are a little too strong, not helped by the fact they have infinite ammo pools
Please cal them at 5-6 shots. at the moment they have no real ammo economy to worry about

-Sniper rifle can be oppresive as hell, and needs something to nerf if
I feel like giving it an Inverse Damage Falloff of sorts would help in making it not viable at every possible range, having it initially do small amounts of damage still a certain range, maybe 10-20 meters from the light

-The Winch on heavy is a little strong at the moment, and i've seen many many heavies use it as a free stun rather than a tool to pull people closer to them
Im going to be honest, im not sure how to nerf the Winch, maybe a decrease in the Stun time after they grab someone, or make the switch back speed a little longer

-And a slightly more personal request, please buff the Medium's Heal Beam a bit, it works nicely as is, but it would be nice to have it be a viable alternative to the H+ Infuser on Light

[quartz shell]

I think melee weapons should have small, balanced abilities:

• Spear: three “Extended Lunges” (~1.5–2× reach). Each lunge tweaks the base chain (65/80/90): −5/−10/−5, but specials add +10, so it’s 70/80/95. A Light (150 HP) can be 2-tapped if you land two specials (70+80=150), but they can still dash out. About 6 seconds of cooldown for each one.

• Hammer: on-hit slow −5% stacking up to −15%. Starts decaying after 5s and fully clears 5s later. Good for chase/control without perma-stun. Deals about −5 less damage per hit.

• Dual Blades: reactive shield when you’re not attacking or using normal deflect; absorbs 45 total and reflects 35%. If one shot exceeds the remaining capacity, it’s fully absorbed and the veil breaks. Starts recharging after 7s and refills in 6s. Normal deflect is 50/50 (mitigate/reflect).

• Riot Shield: can stay up while interacting (steal/turn-in), but its melee damage is lower so it’s not an all-in-one.

• Sword: during the second swing you get 40% damage reduction, but that swing hits a bit less. Movement returns to how it felt before, and the primary attack deals slightly less damage.

• Dagger: a second attack with a slightly wider back-arc to secure backstab; 30s cooldown (you can still use the normal second attack while the cooldown is active).

Of course these numbers can change, but that’s the idea.

[fathom otter]

daily reminder to the devs that the matchmaking is poo poo garbage

[dark niche]

bow and sniper nerf what?? 😭

[wary flax]

Nerf Evasive Dash, nerf 93R, nerf SH1900, nerf HP regeneration and remove Winch Claw from the game.

[hallow oar]

Pls EMBARK Just make the sword clamp 150-180⁰ PLEASE I BEG YOU

[obtuse girder]

Make super cashball and all time game mode like power shift, it’s really fun and wouldn’t be that bad if it stuck around forever?

[wispy silo]

Maybe make the riot shield an ability instead of a weapon, with a limit to the damage it can block

[vernal pivot]

Trying to understand the game sense and theres a lot more to this game than i thought, ive been playing like it was COD

[long oxide]

to minimize needed melee tech knowledge why not make the spear right click cancelable, its a long cutscene every time without canceling it with voice lines.

[balmy sigil]

the riot shield is so broken

[lusty furnace]

sys horizon sniper ledge needs to be destructible, its been abused since the map launched, and even more so since the light portal gadget...basically first team up there wins the start push

[split mason]

You guys have got to be fucking kidding about riot shield meta right now

[sonic arrow]

Genuinely confused why people think riot sheild is meta

you can literally just run away and they cant catch you

yall really know how to cook up some of the worst events to ruin world tour

hammer is like the only good melee gang

Lollll its finally usable idk why people are mad

what yall did with the sword is criminal and a lesson on over doing in game design

[unborn garnet]

buff servers plox

[iron berry]

what love has the dagger gotten 😭 its entire point is the backstabs which are complete ass and have been for a while

[twin helm]

it seems like the plan for this game is to make it so bad so we all quit it when arc raiders come out

->Give KS23 a proper ADS
->Let us customize EoR music

It's a detail, but my contestant's number doesn't match when I appear on the arena's screen. (I think it's the same for player cards)
I'm number 3
Would be nice to get a fix 😄

[heady pilot]

I feel like this isn't said enough but this game could be like 8x better if the gadgets/specializations had more animations to them other than pulling out a tablet, the inspections and the weapon animations are so good, why do we leave out the abilities, the MAIN sauce of the game, especially when compared to games like apex or overwatch 🙁

[narrow belfry]

Please rework smoke so you can see in it at a certain distance or remove/nerf thermal vision so you can’t see in smoke with it bc the level of unfair play when it comes to smoke thermal lights spamming it specifically in high Elo rank is outrages

[cold rock]

is this bannable? so much injustifiable vitriol

[echo drift]

Give mediums a glock😩

[wooden atlas]

I agree with this so much…

Also Embark please just return Ks-23 to a projectile weapon and remove dispersion. Please.

[thorny lynx]

I have loved this game since beta.... I keep forcing myself to play and play and play.... Yet you keep ruining everything? I feel like Embark is just JOKING with us now, just pulling our leg as some kind of sick joke, Riot nerf, Riot Buff (oh lets make riot 1000$ in a WT mode). Yet all the server issues, basic clipping, lag, badge glitches, disconnects, CHEATING... you do nothing. I have read your long paragraphs saying things are fixed, my 3 bug reports never even looked at. You claim to be involved with the community yet do not respond to anything but reddit and a choice select few of your "creators". You avoid important questions in your Q&A just to tout Ozpuze and drink it excitedly on stream.
We get it, you have sunk so much money into the major that the GAME has been forgotten. I understand this Dreamhack investment.... but is the game anywhere close to Esport ready? The game is not even CASUAL PLAY DAILY ready....
Be season 1 Embark again, find the passion and care about your community. Do SOMETHING to show the player base it is still a loved part of this game.
Just a please do better letter

It made me lose faith in the decision making.

[leaden shell]

if lights are not toned down in the next patch im actually done 3 wt games in a row 5-6 lights lobby it just bafles me how this is acceptable. in casuals sure run lights all day long whatever but in wt and ranked there needs to be a class lock on each team for light

[fading falcon]

The riot shield has the same attack range and the same number of hits to kill as the sledgehammer, but it’s faster and can even block bullets. So what’s the point of the sledgehammer? And why is it that the longsword can perform combos but the sledgehammer can’t?

[cyan cairn]

Make the enemy footsteps louder than your fucking teammates

And remove riot shields,grenade launchers, and miniguns out of ranked. I’ve lost RS bc some bums wanna pull some fuck ass weapons in ranked

After playing BF6 something was missing. The frustration of imbalance:

• guns
• gadgets
• specs
• game mechanic/doubling cash, getting griefed by 1st place
• 3rd party

Felt good. Just having fun.

The Finals has potential, but a long way to go. Unfortunately, Matt will not save The Finals and it will be buried next to Dirty Bomb and Brink. I hope I'm wrong.

[drowsy helm]

How should I do

[clear coral]

I felt something was missing from BF6. MORE DAMAGE!

[rustic tinsel]

"Feeling they were hit unexpectedly when a player lunged them." You’re in close range and you’re surprised you got hit by a melee weapon? If you're in a situation where a sword lunge can hit turn arround, then any melee could do that.

Every weapon, when in close range, can naturally move behind the enemy or slide behind and turn to hit from the back. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. Then wouldn't people feel "hit unexpectedly" by dagger too? So are you going to add aim lock to dagger? Why, sword can’t turn around like dagger does? Every weapon can naturally turn around and strike an enemy’s back. But sword alone is restricted from doing that?

Aim spinning wildly wasn't actually used, and anyone who actually played sword at a competitive level understood that.
Occasionally turning the aim wildly in certain situations was done to maximize multi-hit. Then just remove multi-hit, and you won’t need to add aim lock—which is the most frustrating patch in THE FINALS. Even if you spin wildly, you’ll only hit one person, so the problem is solved.

Even if it's not 40 degrees, as long as any form of aim lock exists, sword will have the most idiotic handling. Aim lock is the dumbest choice. Of course, you’d need to revert the damage too.

Just 74 M1 and 140 lunge is enough. Like in S1. That version was slightly weak. So in mid S2, you thought sword was weak and buffed multi-hit in a stealth patch. But because you were obsessed with keeping that, you made a stupid decision. You even removed functions that all other weapons can do.

Sword being like it was in Season 3, and if all the other weapons get buffed so much that they become far stronger than sword and sword ends up being the weakest weapon. That would still be much better. Because sword itself hasn’t changed. Having the weapon you’ve been using get nerfed, restricted, and have its identity destroyed is, more than anything else, the very "frustrating" thing ever.

[unreal basalt]

What knife are you talking about backstabs do like 300 damage

[onyx crystal]

just use it once and then come back to us

Fix your servers, I just spent a weekend playing the beta for bf6, series renowned for bad hit reg. Felt fantastic. Absolutely no lag nothing.

I play one match of the finals and its micro stutter and no reg galore. Its not my internet, its not my pc its your game.

You want to be some E-sports title? Cool you need decent servers for that.

[keen lily]

nerf sa12 a little or improve mag size on shak
@violet elbow it wasn't about me, just about the fact you can wipe entire team with sa12 while with shak you have to constantly reload, it's unbalanced

[violet elbow]

SA12 takes infinite amounts more aim than Shak and still loses the damage trade vs Shak, you should just get good at the game if you cant beat somebody using SA12 while you're on shak

[long flame]

Facts, SA12 is fun to use when you can hit people with it, miss one shot and youre dead, more of a skill weapon so people use it in higher elos

[mild ruin]

I dont know what devs did to game but how to play it if now its always crash (on last round of WT)
You even dont know how many times i lose in game because of ue crash, the most disappointing that goddamn anti cheat loading screen tooks a lot of time and i dont have time to reconnect to game, or do a pause in last match idk, its horrible

buff minigun if sword gets buffed again,

also if you are going to increase the spin time on the minigun (cause i assume the team is still monitoring it) make it PLEASE keep the spin progress. would be a life saver in terms of being able to switch to something.

fix riot sheild hitbox

[harsh cliff]

Idk what you did for ranked but the point system doesn't make any sense, I play ranked, we get two cashes and just because one team took the last cash we lose, it so stupid and just a waste of time, I swear I am playing so much tryintg to rank up but I just reialized that it's just so stupid ranked system, it needs fixing, the game is just cooked, smurfs, cheaters, unbalanced game. goodbye untill you fix your game. the game is just not fun with this unbalance system. I like to play competitive, but it's just so stupid how this system is soo bad. you spend so much money and time on making the game look great, yet you don't put the effort to make the ranked experience fun. and btw people who play your game are people likes to play competitive it's a very fast game. any casual gamer would not play this game. so imo having a good ranked system is very important in this game. but anyways the game is a great game but it's in the development state in my opinion. the game gave me so much stress. I have over 1k hours in the game and now I feel what a waste of time on this unbalanced full of cheaters, smurfs unbalanced game. We are first place yet we lose. I understand this is how the game works now but I am saying that it's not fair. I play better as a team for two cashes and just because the last cash is so difficult to steal cause all players on it doesn't make it fair that the team who puts the cash first will win!!, what kind of logic is this ?

[thorn nebula]

I saw a suggestion to make defibs remove half a point (50) from the enemies' score. It would no longer be pointless to defib, but a little risky given you could die again and end off with a net negative of 150.

[kindred hamlet]

Ks23 needs a 1.4x headshot multiplier, Is the only way to make the gun viable without being overturned, most of the issues this gun has is the lack of a skill ceiling. This issue is more noticeable after the removal of the animation cancel with the quick melees.

[supple mortar]

Please revert sword's angle lock and super dash change. Genuinely removes any kind of ability to track players. If they even slightly move to the side, you lose the fight. Simple as that.
Nerf the cleave instead.

[ionic monolith]

Remove light from the game.

[shell current]

heavy regen is too slow and light regen is too fast. just make it all like medium

[maiden anchor]

Leave the riot shield as it is. I love killing anyone who uses it, easy peasy haha. I just want them to nerf the light class, which sucks, the fast advancement is unbearable.

[nova mica]

In your first point you stated that you lost because you didn’t get a cashout… that’s kinda how the game works

At 1k hours you should know that. First two cashouts don’t mean much if you’re not in first place

[round plover]

we should end the game when the timer is at 0 because when timer hits 0 you can still get wiped even though technically there is no more time but stil it happened to us. this is just bullshit design everybody knows that when a timer hits 0 a game is done not 1 sec after not 0.5sec but at 0 this needs to b adressed

[muted gazelle]

My dear friend cant play the game for some reason
It keeps crashing and crashing
Even if he manages to enter a single game, start shooting etc. it will crash

Has anyone experiened this, what could be the issue?

[onyx loom]

I don’t have an image to post for this, but I’d like to suggest adding piercings as an option for our contestants! I think it would be a great way to make them feel more personal and unique. I myself have snakebites, two nose piercings, and an ear piercing and I know a lot of people love expressing themselves through piercings. It’d be a fun touch for customization and help players create characters that reflect their own style.

[frozen tree]

Exactly! Remove multihit instead of keeping clamp so the lunge isn’t useless in combat

[jagged vector]

To everybody who’s saying jinko made how to on the riot shield and how to kill it and all that people who have not seen the way to kill a riot shield is 1. Run away. 2. Have a good teammate. 3. Use all your weapons and all your abilities to kill one player. If that’s what it takes to kill one player on a team, the weapon is clearly overpowered and needs a nerf or other weapons and abilities to be able to kill it better. Same thing with a dual sword you can’t shoot their feet cause the block the shot. Can’t shoot their face because They block a shot and you have to run weapons like that Don’t belong in the FPS game.

[unique wasp]

this game isn't really about just killing everyone you see and never has been- people don't understand this. It's the same shit with certain heavy and melee players complaining that they have a hard time killing lights who stick out of their range when they're balanced around controlling objectives and forcing people to come to them.

A medium running dual blades or riot shield is taking those things explicitly for the ability to tank. In exchange, they're neutering their damage output and ability to do anything about someone existing beyond point blank, which is a big deal when the most appealing part about playing medium is typically their extremely strong weapons.

I've seen some goofy wrong-looking riot shield clips and all and I get that it's more popular lately but "there is a loadout that doesn't respond to me clicking on the bad man" isn't something that warrants removal lol

[celest estuary]

I agree. Heavy should regen as fast as Light does to full HP even if Light just has less overall HP so it " appears " to heal faster but it actually doesn't. So regen Heavy's HP just as fast as light imo.

[smoky gust]

i think heavy should regenerate to max hp faster
maybe extend the regen delay by 1-2 seond, then make the regeneration itself way faster?

[dawn valve]

If you do not nerf 93R and winch youre going to lose players so fast

@celest estuary @rugged ridge Are you actually serious? With all the new healing in the game heavy is already OP and you want to BUFF it? Youre crazy

[fallen wave]

I know it's probably extremely difficult with how the server side destruction works but the ability to have a demo file of a round would be absolutely huge for improving competitive play, catching cheating, and for the creation of what would be some of the best fps clips ever made. This game is capable of creating beautiful movie-like moments and it's a huge shame we can't show them off at their best.

Why doesn't winch just reduce the damage you deal after winching someone?

Call it exhaustion or something. Then you can buff back SA and Sledge.

• Left Click has Multi-hit.
• Right Click no Multi-hit, hit radius 90 degree, but no clamp!

Hey Busy People !

Can we have a separate chat in which we can talk with someone from the tech team, run third party softwares with the game itself,

Will help in increasing the security and adaptability with the game

[iron berry]

many things wrong with it, main the weapon for a bit and youll see its issues very clearly

[proven crown]

This server issue I'm having, granted - connecting EU from South Africa - is game breaking:

Every 2 or 3 games (specifically in casual modes for some reason) I'm faced with outrageous stutteriness (like I'm playing at 12 fps) and I know it's an issue with the game, because half the time I restart, reconnect (if WT) and it's perfectly fine... Hello? It's been doing this for ages

[ornate canopy]

I can deal with one riot shield, but I have no clue how to beat a team with 2 of them, both have defib, and a heavy sitting on a healing emitter

[radiant harbor]

Can more be done to prevent griefing in ranked? The amount of games we lost this week because we were second place and the first place team griefed us out to push the 4th place team through is ridiculous. They just guard the 4th place team and let them steal for free . We were playing really well and still losing lots of RS to teams that had guys who were like 0/9 because they got a free pass by some ruby team.

Maybe the 1st place team should be switched to spectate mode or something so the can't interfere if certain conditions are met like they have such a big lead over second there's no kill race/wipe risk to make them drop to second.

[keen karma]

Team at embark if you're reading please have the devs code +/- 1 rank strict matchmaking when < 2 mins queue time, after that do a +/-2 rank diff, then so on.
I used my little coding brain to come up with this logic that would at least attempt to solve the matchmaking rank problem without dragging out queue times for this small player base

[slow python]

fix riot shield animations

[clever island]

In the finals’ glare, the crowd was loud,
A storm of cheers, a roaring crowd.
The sword once shone with battle’s might,
Its edge a blaze in the heat of fight.

But Embark came with “balance” in hand,
A patch decree across the land.
They swung their nerf like fate’s own blade,
And all the warriors’ hopes decayed.

Once it carved through steel with grace,
Now it tapped foes—like a friendly embrace.
From hero’s weapon to training toy,
They stripped the thrill, they killed the joy.

And so the finals told the tale,
Of a nerf so bad, the cheers went pale.
For legends fall not just to skill,
But devs who tweak… and kill the thrill.

[jaunty fern]

Take some of the pellets from the first shot of the DB and put them into the second shot. This will prevent DB being broken against lights without changing the dps.

[glass fjord]

If hitreg is never going to be addressed the riot shield needs to not block bullets unless right click is being held. I dont know any fps that allows zero skill blocking of 100% damage while also have completely incorrect animation for the hitbox

[sterile canopy]

that would outright kill the weapon. not a very reasonable solution

[dusty igloo]

Let us remove the gun sling from the case closed shirt, I just want a clean white shirt

[fiery beacon]

When can we expect a riot shield fix ? This is the game i play with my friends, in the past 2 weeks unfortunately tbh, if not for that i would uninstall this straight away do you test athe changes before implementing ? who the hell wants to get mauled to death against a player you cannot hit ? The game has other issues, like the goo gun freezing people on the same place, or the double barrel having too much range, or the netcode, dying behind a wall is kind of constant. But the riot shield is just a plain stupid. I have 1040 hours in this game, and never i faced such a fustrating meta. You don't want a pure FPS, like others in the market ? Fine, neither do I, but you cannot have frustrating weapons. And don't comeback with, oh Jinko made a video and so, cause that video is ridicoulous, a counter is having better moment than the other player ? You cannot shoot the feet of the riot shield the hitbox is all screwed up. If you could shoot the feet or even the little visor, that would make sense. As it is now, i would prefer you just remove it until you find a balance for the weapon.

[sick forum]

saying DB has too much range is all i need to hear… skill issue

[wide grotto]

Riot Shield blocks/ hitboxes need to be fixed. It requires an unreasonable amount of precision to counter in a game where there's just chaos. It's killing the enjoyment of the game quite a bit for my team.

[green summit]

Playing db for a while i can def say this, it needs a nerf, it should NOT be able to 2 shot heavys, I litteraly started doubling my kills as light when i played db, it out preforms melee at melee range, and it can still do damage outside of that, if anything at least nerf it so it doesnt 2 tap heavys, esspecially with the only way to counter it is use winch, which lights already complain about, also please fix (not nerf) the hitbox for riot sheild, i want to be able to hit them when they are hitting me.

[severe linden]

Fix the servers

[spice cave]

Is that not the point of it. It gets only 2 shots but makes up for it in firepower

[lapis harness]

Needed key bind options/qol changes.

1. Being able to switch interact but leave swap gun key

2. Being able to swap Gadgets with clickers throw/activate keys

3. Add a way to choose to auto attach to ladders or need to hit interact to start climbing(or just replace all ladders with zip lines)

4. Raise controller default sensitivity to like 300&290
   (This is to help the new players all decent players i know are around 500 & i’m at 750)

Nothing crazy but would be game changing.

Also buff dagger a charged dagger stab with how long it takes to charge and to get next to someone should do the same as a snipper if its charged no reason i should have to dodge snipper shots all the way to the snipper for them be-able to shoot melee combo me after i hit a charge and like two normal slashes

[severe yarrow]

Does anyone know if finals is considering bringing the game to switch 2?! Please don't attack me😭 I just wanna play from my couch/bed sometimes in on pc and just like to sit somewhere more comfy when I play

[neat raven]

I wouldn’t count on it. I believe running this game would be far beyond the hardware capabilities of the switch 2.

[waxen thicket]

Pls remove the 1st spin from the Spear RMB, that way it would still be slow on the uptake without completely locking you in a lengthy animation.

Or better yet, make it a thrown attack that deals ~100 damage and reloads after 1 second, but disables all attack during reload and has heavy projectile drop.

Also add the Chicago Typewriter /Tommy Gun, an SMG for medium that sacrifices range and firerate for bigger mags, kinda like ARN-22.

Got kicked from a server now for the 3rd time in a row. i just came back to play the game and idk whats going on

[umbral swift]

Sword requires 70+ on Primary Attack (PA) and 140+ on Secondary Attack (SA) to be viable.

• To be viable VS
  • Heavy: SA x2 + PA must be ≥ 350
  • Medium: SA + QM + PA must be ≥ 250
• AKA, SA must be ≥ 140/PA must be ≥ 70

Rotation Clamp must be removed for Secondary Attack to be viable for combat.

• A tiny sidestep makes it impossible to land
• You can’t even look at anyone not on your FOV
• Vertical rotation clamp only has 2 uses:
  • Adjusting ground lunge distance
    • Flick up to ensure max possible distance
    • Flick down to reduce lunge distance
  • Hitting someone above/below you mid-air
    • Mid-air lunge causes no movement
    • Only works if already in melee range
• Every single ranged/melee can 360°
  • Ranged? Turn and keep shooting
  • Melee? 360° mid-active hitbox
    • Sword Primary Attack can do this too

Primary Attack spam is less skillful, less counterable, and less fun for both sides.

• Primary Attack
  • No charge-up, can be spammed any time
  • Works even without cover
  • Works even if Glitched
• Secondary Attack
  • Charge-up time forces using cover/Dash
  • Flicks only change Sword hitbox direction
  • Only Dash/Grapple changes where you move
  • If you can’t use Specializations, you lose

I'm surprised they haven't already released a bundle to look like the pharaoh from the Eternal Rest games on Vegas

We had so many great backgrounds in the menu. Would be cool if we could select our own (previous) backgrounds in some way

[cosmic zodiac]

In plat 4 (solo) +150 for 3rd place, then -1300 for 5th. HORRIBLE ranked system......

[tawny orchid]

nice sword patch, 7 people left from me doing this

and before you say its power shift, thats the point im trying to make its op against casuals and useless in ranked

revert super dash change, remove clamp, remove multi hit, damage to 74 / 110

[lunar reef]

People from the pacific northwest should not be paired with people from new york.. This is like pairing someone from the UK with someone from Australia

[random smelt]

Thats cause they sucked ass and had no teamwork lets be real.

Real point can devs please Remove the Sword Clamp its beyond atrocious why do I as a sword player have to be at such a disadvantage in all areas regarding close combat and not just a simple tiny one where I can use other means to go crazy, I have to rely on people being complete trash in order to get kills and help the team. I'd say im pretty decent/good with sword I know how to play it since I've played it longest time out of any weapon in the game for 2-3 yrs but even with that I can barely keep up with the average player with a normal ass gun. I do NO DAMAGE till I get CLOSE to them and when im close to them 90% of the time im already about to die and have to dash or lunge jump out. The only trajectory I can take now is going straight at the enemy the most obvious path because I can't look in their direction if I go above or below them neither left and right too please fix it ASAP every knows its a horrible change if you want to change sword just get rid of multi hit or at least reduce its damage per hit after the intitial one I beg. Their are many counters to close range players im just asking to not feel like I have a crutch or a wheel chair playing the sword the counters don't matter to me but I just want the sword back.

[weary pine]

Ban Smurfing! It only ruins the new player experience for everyone else and remove gifting so that new accounts cant be abused for multibucks trades.

[alpine summit]

Yoo fr tho i wouldnt mind seeing that in the game

[noble path]

Revert the sledgehammer nerf, it achieves nothing but make the weapon garbage tier.

[thick ferry]

I think heal beam needs some love especially after the H+ Infuser and Heal ball being added.

Maybe it should have a bump in it's healing but make it so that the amount of healing drops off as the resource meter drops to avoid the old 3 mediums constantly beaming / defibbing each other.

Or at least something to give it an edge over the infuser, which I assume it'll get a nerf but I hope it's not too harsh.

[hearty bough]

The solution (prior to them fixing the hitbox display, NOT nerfing riot as a whole) is to play riot yourself and sort out where it works and where it doesn’t.

Riot can only reliably block one opponent at a time unless they are standing in the same spot on top of one another, and the shield never covers 100% of your own hitbox, you are only 90% covered at best at any given time. In essence the riot shield mitigates damage, rarely does it outright absorb all of it.

There are countless counters to riot shield, most of them revolve around having decent decision making / positioning / movement skills - the short of it is DO NOT GET INTO A 1V1 WITH A RIOT INDOORS.

If you must 1v1, take it in an open space, place a jump pad or zip (really anything you can maneuver on) and create space while taking pot shots, you will whittle them down while taking no damage because they have no gap close (unless of course you do what jinko highlights in his video - which is stand still / walk backwards while shooting and then complain)

For hard counters, see all other melee weapons, both GLs, flamethrowers, mines, jump pad, zip line, goo nade, anti grav cube, gravity well, charge n slam, dash, grapple, Cerberus, double barrel, M26, and basic teamwork

[mint elk]

there was a tease that they were thinking about it so stay tuned??? idk i could be wrong

[dark niche]

im sorry literally why

Buff v9s but also more healing. More healingggggggggg

[cobalt kernel]

Call me crazy, but i think Ranked should be "Friendly Fire ON" ! 😎

Also nerf the absolute sh*t out of winch claw

[waxen rover]

Every single casual mode is full of lights sweating their hearts out 😂

[mortal marten]

I am sure this has been suggested a few times - maybe on reddit or idk. But could you bring back ranked skins in some form? I mean you brought back battlepasses and whatever so it would be awesome if a system was implemented, where a player can buy any ranked skin from past ranked seasons. My idea would be that you have to grind for a rank and then you get a TOKEN for that specific rank. Then you can only buy ONE ranked skin from that specific rank you just reached.

Example: I just reached gold. I get a gold token. And now I can go to the rank shop and buy ANY past gold skin that was released. This applies to every rank. That way people can still „flex“ their ruby or emerald rank since they still had to grind to get that specific token. I hope this idea reaches you embark since I think it would be pretty sick! :> Have a good day

[karmic surge]

with new update coming soon i am thinking that it is about time for an fcar buff... also an arn nerf... as someone who's used the fcar a lot. i recently decided to give other AR's a chance. I learned it's pattern and can defintely say that this gun is broken out of its mind. any half decent player can shred with this weapon. it actually beats out the pike if you hit all your shots at range. (something the fcar is missing)... dual deagles is also the same story as the arn with the headshot multiplier. buff fcar because it's core identity is a gun that is precise and has slightly longer range than the ak and can be a consistently average gun across the class itself. even excelling in the hands of good players.

[rugged willow]

i have a cool suggestion for Embark/devs if they are reading these. I have recently been playing the finals with the finals OST in the background because I think it just makes it feel cooler. and it got me thinking. the music in the game is so goddamn good that I wish we heard it more in the actual game. I am NOT suggesting music be added during normal matches of quick cash/competitive/world tour or any of the gamemodes. However, if embark really does decide to add that PvE mode later on down the line, I hope it would allow for a less aggresively readable soundscape to the point where there could potentially be completely original or old reworked dynamic music tracks that dynamically quiet down and amp up as your complete objectives against the AI enemies. I also think it would be a good opportunity to explore the immersive universe that the finals is set in. I've always thought that every single match feels like you're playing a trailer and having a chance to add dynamic music would greatly add to that feeling.

[twin helm]

why are throwing knives still this op

[lyric aurora]

Can we get pc n ps icons instead of them just showing controller icons

[mellow narwhal]

Can we nerf pike already and buff fcar, pike is so dumb 3 tapping lights with insane range

[upper saddle]

Most of the back lash towards the Ultimate Battle Pass is due to the price tag on it, 30 dollars- but a solution to that could be re-defining how Ultimate Battle Passes are done by Embark as a studio rather than copying the blue print of a cash thirsting studio like activision, consider separating the fast track +20 levels and +25% experience from the Ultimate Battle Pass and reducing it's price tag to 20 dollars and allowing people to buy the fast tracked battle pass option for 10 dollars separate from the ultimate battle pass, throw in 1,000 multi bucks so people have more reason to buy it then possibly add a seasonal supporter cosmetic for purchasing all three; the fast track, seasonal bundle and ultimate battle pass so people can show off their support and love for the game.

Combined Fast Track, Ultimate Battle Pass and Seasonal Bundles would be around 45 dollars worth of multi bucks all together for a price tag of 40 dollars making for an excellent deal and people would feel far less frustrated by the monetization practices that are Ultimate Battle Passes.

Changes to cashout boxes seem to make the final cashout situation basically the same but with less cash..

[pliant lichen]

Its not really. The entire concept of 'Monty sprinting at you while fully extended' is hysterically stupid. Genuinely, I cannot fathom how riotshield was even ever playtested. There's NO chance they had anyone openly say that that was fun to play against. They didn't playtest it, there's the answer. The concept I mean. And because of the 10 percent dps increase that last patch it has just gotten even more insufferable. This is coming from a Flamethrower and Hammer Goo Gun main btw. Riotshield either needs a pretty big part of the shield cut off at the bottom so it works like small shields in r6 where you need to crouch for full coverage, or rework it so you can only hold the bat or the shield at any one given time (shield would go on back when not in use). Either way I dont expect much. The devs dont seem to give a single shit about the literal hundreds of comments in here saying DB is extremely unfun to fight so I doubt riotshield will ever be fixed on a fundamental level.

[rugged temple]

Its absolutely a skill issue, also you cant crouch with the shield blocking, since blocking state takes priority over crouching state. Riot isnt an issue since the downsides it has massively outweight the upsides, not to mention the multitudes of counters there are to it. A better way to fix some of the grievances with riot (notably the shield model not lining up with the hitbox) would be to improve servers to make it more accurate without nerfing a low tier weapon. The changes you suggest would just kill the weapon and instantly make it the worst in the game by a long shot.

Also as for db, its a noob stomper, so noobs complain about it. It's fine and balanced rn. Screwing up balance in favor of bad players is a terrible way to balance a game.

[rustic snow]

Agree to this

[vernal pivot]

i wish some guns were more rounded off i hate that there is meta for every class

[narrow belfry]

please make it so you can see someone if you are close to them in smoke right now smoke is absolute in ranked being spammed and abused by lights and it last 1hr for it to go away this needs a rework or remove/nerf thermal because the insane advantage on something like smoke in combination with thermal is crazy

Remove Sword Clamp please it's the worst change option for the weapon as it needs that look toward enemies to even be a viable weapon in the game. Don't take away what makes the sword style player by taking away their style and the way play with every change y'all do to the sword, we don't mind adapting since we have to do it just about every patch we just ask to make it fun and bearable. Think of the players not the Haters. If other people are having fun with their weapon don't change it, simple concept but you wont always have 100% liking or disliking a weapon/style in any game .
For example The Riot Shield, people have been complaining recently quite a bit about it and I find it odd, I don't play Riot Shield but I have done so today for a few matches to see why everyone is talking about it and I've gone up against them ALOT and I don't find them to be oppressive or to the point it needs a change. Hell people see a rise in Riot Shield players and think its a bad thing but really it just goes to show people don't just wanna shoot with guns all the time.

[spare harness]

Sledge takes 1 attack for lights, 2 for mediums and 3 for heavies without any Quick melee. Riot takes minimum 2 shots on light, 2 attacks+ 2 QM or 3 attacks on medium , and 3 attacks + 2 QM or 4 attacks on heavy.

Hammer kills with less hits across the board, and does it faster. It's also got almost perfect odds to kill enemy riot users since your ttk is faster and shield basically doesn't block the hammer.

Another game of world tour this week where someone quits to main menu but doesn't quit again at the main menu forcing us to grief ourselves out of the tournament as to not be stuck waiting 9 minutes in the second round.

[analog wigeon]

Honestly i feel its not as much an issue of *The Matter is Mid" as much as it is Most of Lights other weapons vastly outclass it
The matter is a good weapon and is my personal go to for Light. And I've gone on tears with it. Only ever really being stomped out by long Range with not much cover, or the usual Light Counters of Explosives, Fire, or most melee weapons

Can we have a separate chat in which we can talk with someone from the tech team, run third party softwares with the game itself,

Will help in increasing the security and adaptability with the game

[haughty lintel]

I would say, for future patches for balancing avoid nerfing. Even if something could be nerfed, there are a lot more weapons that need buff. A good ol shoe shine would really help breath life into the game. So many weapons that I want to play just feel like I'm blowing kisses on the enemy team and need to switch to a meta gun.

[peak forge]

Name one worse thing that actively makes you not wanting playing The Finals against each Build.

I just want to know if my feeling are shared with anyone in this game.
Mine are:
Light - ||Probably Thermal Vision, because you never would know if the guy is hacking, or just used Thermal Vision.||
Medium - ||Dematerializer, because it makes Heavy Destruction and cover making useless, and light can't run or hide from it.||
Heavy - ||Charge and Slam, because it is just "I want this melee class to be gone, because i am bad at positioning."||

This right here..

I am still baffled they un-nerfed the range back to 12 m AND gave the stun duration a huge buff that pretty much means instant death to Light players and about 30% survival for mediums.

It's a Joker ability that has to be nerfed ASAP, there is only couple more months to the tournament and the meta is completely fixed, ALL Heavy will run Winch and ALL Lights will be forced to run E. Dash to counter it. No build variety..

[umbral swift]

[twilit sand]

fix the riot shield hitbox

[elder spear]

Love how you nerfed cl 40 , Cerberus, model shotgun cuz the lights kept bitching when they get a taste of their own medicine. Yet most of the weapons on light class are complete obnoxious not to mention the SH SHOTGUN , that can one shot a heavy just because you can sneak behind an enemy ? Or two shot a medium from 10 meters out full health? Meanwhile all the other shotguns on medium or heavy do not kill the light with one hit? Also throwing knives, daggers backstab, now you even buffed the sword again that can strike two opponents at the same time. And not to mention the m11 the 2nd fastest dps in the entire game seems balanced enough Embark another w . Fucking pathetic

[slender girder]

Game's felt quite bad past week. Like real bad hit detection.

[rustic tinsel]

Even if it's not 40 degrees, as long as any form of aim lock exists, sword will have the most idiotic handling. You should just revert the sword back to how it was in S1 and S2, when there was no multi-hit. The sword back then was a bit weak, but that’s okay. It’s better than receiving a dumb patch that destroys the weapon’s original identity, even if it’s a weaker weapon.

Because you thought the sword was weak when there was no multi-hit, you stealth-patched multi-hit in. But because you were obsessed with keeping that, you made a stupid decision. You even removed functions that all others can do.

Every weapon, when in close range, can naturally move behind the enemy or slide behind and turn to hit from the back. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to dagger and all weapon? Why, sword can’t turn around like all does? Every weapon can naturally turn around and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that?

Even that previous hit sweep nerf made the Sword too weak and you ended up reverting it. Yet now you’re doing something even worse.

Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, and only listen to nerf whiners who never even used it?

It seems like you’re trying to get rid of players who use low-population weapons, just to quiet down bothersome users. So you think niche weapons can just be thrown away?

There are many weapons stronger than Sword in melee: Pike, Riot, DB, M11, Shak, SA, and so on.

But Sword got unlucky and got marked as annoying and is now targeted—not because of balance, but just because it “feels.”

Do you have to ruin the sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. If you’re going to play like that, the buffed riot shield is way better. Who’s the narrow-minded person who decided on a patch like this that ruins the sword’s identity by thinking “elee should just be mindless M1 spam”?

[glass pendant]

Demat should be gutted. Its sole reason so many gadgets and abilities are not viable. Not to mention it does everything heavy utility supposed to do but better. Its tiresome to see all meds running it 24/7 and all other abilities are pretty much grief pic on med for how many seasons already?

186 dmg is mental for a weapon that's this easy to use on mnk specifically🤷🏻‍♂️

Sword feels so god damn awful man the hit reg is absurdly bad, I'm getting no regs in pratice range??? 40° angle is some pychopaths idea .. it feels awful 65° could be better but i'd rather u rethink the rework and don't rush it like you cleary did with this one..

[verbal cairn]

nerf winch and pike there is no reason for pike to be 50dmg and for winch to do that much on such a short cooldown

[dark niche]

bow nerf is actually insane what

[clear coral]

I get this but when you take in to account the rate of fire i think the damage is slightly fair

[clever bone]

most strong light weapons like m11, xp and arn (sh1900 aswell if you feel so) are easier to use as the bow so how do you feel that thats the weapon that needs a nerf? (only m11 and mybe sh1900 truly needs a nerf from this list)

[fluid raptor]

pike lowk still busted with 50 damage. either decrease rpm or change the damage to 49

[scarlet owl]

Please do something abt them fucking riot shields bc no matter wat u do unless u throw projectiles there’s no other way to kill em even w hip fire

[little timber]

Hello, dear developers. As a player who has been playing the sword for a long time, I can say that the sword is an absolutely useless weapon in its current state. Its main feature was not its damage, but its mobility, which you have destroyed by blocking the camera's rotation angle, making it almost impossible to hit someone with a lunge, as two steps to the side would allow you to dodge the fencer's lunge. Yes, you have increased the damage of your normal attack, but it is useless because your attack speed is low, and when you try to kill an opponent, you usually die because the light class only has 150 health, so you don't have enough time to land more than two hits before you die. How to fix it? 1st method: Increase the camera rotation angle during attacks to 180 degrees. 2nd way: Return the old sword (which deals 140 damage per hit), but remove the sword's ability to hit multiple enemies with a single strike. 3rd way: Fully rework the sword

[cobalt stream]

No you're actually just a dumbass if you want that to be a thing again. I think It's perfectly where it should be in order to be played. It can still be used succesfully and efficiently in order to quickly kill M/L but still be shut down by H to some extent due to the TTK.

Also another dumbass "must" of the weapon of removing the clamp is also making you look senile. Melee weapons can be good but they should have clear and cut gimmicks that act as a down side. And from what I've seen it becomes more of a skill issue if you can't hit it (so you suck ass) instead of guaranteed carried damage (since you need to be carried). AND HOLY SHIT ANOTHER BAD SWORD PLAYER COMPLAINING. Good sword players are actually doing stuff rn.

You know what is less skilled than primary attack spam? (If you're actually good you mix them both in, which you aren't) Having right click spam be the norm again as you dash from side to side with no risk since you want to kill them in under a second. That's just what I'm getting from what you typed. 1, you're bad and want to be carried. 2, you don't understand game balancing. Thank you :)

As for some REALLY unskilled stuff tho Embark.. DB is actually such an unskilled fucking weapon because it should not be doing a full 190 if they have some distance on me. I get the gimmick of the weapon is supposed to be 1-2 and reload long but the fact that light just has the ability to dash in pump and then dash out.. It means that if he somehow didn't hit all pellets from being right in your face he would still be able to rat out. Otherwise, DB just kills you without any way to retaliate unless the light player is just that bad. Instead of recommending damage changes because that just doesn't solve the problem.. How about adding a longer reload, wider spread, or slower fire rate. You don't have to do all 3 at once but without adjusting the damage numbers, it makes the gimmick of the weapon a lot more tolerable.

Last thing.. REMOVE KYOTO NO ONE LIKES THAT BUM ASS MAP

[tawny oak]

fix the servers, damage is not proper and shots dont register properly, fix the weapon balance, why do mediums get a 2 shot dmr, lever action gun that melts lights but lights need to have the sniper rifle thats barely reliable, give me a fucking 2 shot body shot sniper rifle with 3 rounds so i can blast mediums to hell!

[delicate pasture]

Embark are useless. Many of us are quitting the game because of the stupid decisions they make. It's getting worse, and they still haven't removed the Cl-40 from the game. They're truly a group of useless incompetents who don't want to see the game flourish. Many new players stop playing when they find themselves with the Cl-40 and other broken weapons.

[unreal blaze]

Really good suggestions here for the dematerializer.

@delicate pasture Yes, the Embark devs have nobody else to blame for why their game really hasn't grown. The fact that the CL-40 hasn't been removed is beyond me despite the fact that devs from Nvidia, Steam, Arc Raider (yes their own team), and even a sitting U.S. Senator from Missouri has complained about the weapon. When a U.S. senator is holding meetings with parents about making legislation against developers for purposely putting toxic low skill weapons in a game to monetize laziness and toxicity, you know you fucked up.

[dire scaffold]

Still my favorite shooter of all time. Keep up the good work. All the haters/ragers need to find a different outlet, tired of reading these posts and it is just people complaining.

[hollow kelp]

^this

[wooden atlas]

As a sword main from S1 on, let me give my personal opinion on the current state of sword. First off, I am SO grateful that this weapon FINALLY does damage again. It is now possible to make it perform quite well if you have and use some skill—yes, even with the rotation clamp.

That said, I think most if not all of the nerfs have been unwarranted. The phantom strikes being removed is fair, but the clamp nerf feels rather forced. It isn’t game-breaking, but it is very punishing to users of a weapon that already punishes you for being anything but nose-to-nose with your target. If anything, I think widening the angle would go a long way toward making sword less punishing to use. However, if it must remain in this state in order to be balanced (or at least to keep the whiners off our backs), so let it be.

One last opinion—and this might be a hot take, but I’m going to say it anyway: do not remove multihit from lunge. Lunge is currently the more skill-based of the two attacks, and in my opinion it has always been this way due to needing to be charged up. If left-click spamming is the only viable option in a crowded melee, sword becomes a mindless spam-fest, and lunge becomes borderline worthless. Whatever else you do to sword, Embark, please leave multihit alone.

TL;DR: thank you Embark for giving back a viable sword; please don’t nerf it any further

*split message: part:1
Edit: Only able to send every 6H so next part will be here then 😄

1. Community and stat based suspend system

2. Chat filter

3. Reports/Transparency

4. Replay

5. API

6. Balancing

So my biggest concern is cheating when playing games. It's not easy to solve it but I think game developers are overlooking the power in the community to help solve this problem. We need to work together to create a better gaming experience for everyone. So my suggestion is that there should be a system where the player reports for cheating is used to take action faster. And to expand on this, in the future if/when replay is added implementing the only good thing from CS the overwatch. So the community now handles the suspensions and not Embark. Kinda offloads all the cheating/banning to the players and allows more resources on improving the anti cheat and also the game.

So what can be done? I was thinking a simple algorithm (NO AI) to calculate the probability of cheating based on the player stats and reports. This is not supposed to be permanent ban but a suspension until it can be handled by Embark. These suspensions should be handled within 6H (preferably within 1H with good tuning). How? Well its pretty simple, build a scoring system that takes in the player stats and gives X points based on the stats and reports. For example, lets say we have a user that has a average kd of 0.5-1.0 and then suddenly it spikes to 2.0 we add a score of +2. No action taken yet, score is too low. But then it spikes to 5.0 we add +10 since this is well above the average kd for everyone expect some 0.1% of the players. Still might not be high enough to warrant a suspension but then lets say there is more player reports on this player the last X games. Then we might add a score of +5 for each report. Then the score threshold is reached and the player is suspended until it can be handled by Embark. But here comes the complexity of the system. All users report players differently, so for each "false report (not really false just sometimes hard to know for less experienced players and missing replay)" that players reports gets a lower score. This can be done by adding a weight to the score based on the player's previos report reputation. Lets say Bob last reports (10 reports) has a 80% accuracy, we can add a weight of 0.8 to Bob's reports on other players. We also have Alice who has a 0% accuracy, we can add a weight of 0.05 to Alice's reports on other players. This way we can balance the system and make sure that the system is fair and balanced. The above is just very simple, what it would take into account is the following: headshots, kills, deaths, assists, level, rank, playtime, hit accuracy, prev suspensions (this gives either a negative or positive score. Based on the amount of new reports on the player. Since already suspended before and handled by Embark we know that this player is most likely just very skilled), games played and lastly the player's reports. Each of these factors will be weighted based on their importance and how much they spike from their normal stats and also the combined stats of all players (in the same rank/level just something to divide them to get a average score for their skill level).

Did implement this kind of system back in the day but not offically in a game, just via scraping stats from the game's API. We did determine that this type of system can be effective with very very few false positives. Mainly our issue was that we did not have per game stats and player reports.

This can all be implemented in the background (no automatic suspension) until fine tuning is done. Also gives a good overview of which users get flagged and which are false to improve the algorithm scoring.

The chat profanity filter is way too aggressive and there should be an option to disable it (add this back, not sure why this option was removed).

[upbeat pulsar]

split message: part 2
Questions or chatting original poster: @feral trout

You need to tell the players which users were banned based on reports so they know what they can improve for their next report. Not sure why companies are hiding this but ffs make a list with all your reports and which has been approved/declined. So we can use that information to improve our own reporting. Being more open gives us more tools to improve our own reporting.

Replay system to view matches and be able to report. Not on the top of my list of things that need implementation but nice to have. Makes it possible to get clips if you missed that during the game and also view other players' perspectives for cheating and also improve your own skills.

API to access player stats, maps, global statistics (stats per map/rank/gamemode), store, achievements, live bans/suspensions and history bans/suspensions. Give us data so we can make tools for the community.

Not gonna lie pretty happy most of the balance with gadgets/weapons. The only thing that does not click is the CL40, it's way too powerful solo. Needs to be nerfed to be more of a support weapon to assist the team and not solo. Right now its very strong solo and f (f like the thing grownups do in bed) impossible to play against with a good enemy team.

Extra (BE MORE TRANSPARANT):
Got a 24H ban in vc/text. Trying to get an idea of why so it does not happen again I get generic responses from Embark support. Opened 4 tickets and in the last ticket they mentioned that they cant say why, but read the TOS section 5. Like yeah sure but still you gotta give me something, how can your players improve if they never know exactly what was wrong. People all over the world plays this game, laws and norms are vastly different. NEED MORE TRANSPARANCY!

[odd ibex]

Add kusarigama for light OR MEDIUM class,primary attacks hit like sword but alt attack is u spin the chain and blade 160 degrees in front of u and most damage ONLY where blade hits NOT the WHOLE 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,a mix of projectile and melee.

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

[smoky gust]

please let us choose (or influence) what map we play on
even partial choice would be great (some choice is better than no choice)

i could see something similar to mario kart work, where you get a choice between 2 maps, and if you dont like either, you can go random
perhaps there could be a backfill option, where you opt into playing lesser chosen maps so they can still get full matches quickly, in return for some small xp boost

it would make it twice as likely to get our favorite maps
vastly improve the chances of getting a map thats at least workable with the loadout you want to use (reducing how often players feel the need to use something they dont want because it just doesnt work well there)
allow us to purposefully get more variety by choosing maps we dont use as often, instead of needing to wait for the variety to randomly show up when the preference might already have faded again
and overall just make playing more enjoyable

[frozen tree]

“Good sword players are actually doing stuff rn” is true, what they’re doing is not playing sword anymore. As a sword main, I would appreciate the damage buffs but I can see how someone would say they’re unbalanced. The clamp, however, is stupid.

I agree with you that the clamp requires more skill from the sword player yet it also makes it difficult for the sword user to use qm and do combos, meaning you lose skill expression there. Also, the risk is very high, because missing with a gun just means you do less damage but missing with the lunge means you’re stuck in a bad position and either die or have to use your dashes to make it out, crippling you until they’re back.

So how do we fix it? First: remove the clamp, but also remove multihit. This will be a nice give and take and make lunging viable in combat again. Second, I think the left click should be reverted- the combo playstyle sword players like doesn’t really need the damage and getting that little bit of attack speed back would be nice. Finally, we could try for a 140 damage lunge again (it was fine) but I don’t know if it’s worth the backlash.

[queen stone]

the rotational clamp effectively removes the gimmick of the sword, the movement weapon. the down side of old sword was well you're using a melee weapon in a shooting game, that's the downside for all melee weapons.

running at you while spamming M1 is actually the least skillful thing in this game regardless of class, at least I had to aim and commit when using M2.

"dasing side to side with no risk" are you not shooting while they're dashing or?

wanting to remove a whole map is crazy, when its been proven people enjoy that map.

You didn't lie about DB it does need a change

The old gamemodes for events should be available in private matches like cashball, so people can play them with there friends

[analog glacier]

I totally agree. There's no desire to improve this game; in fact, it's getting worse and worse over time. From the technical side to the gameplay, the game is regressing. It increasingly feels like a game left to its own devices, where total randomness reigns supreme.

Unbalanced weapons (cl40- and many melee weapons), non-existent matchmaking, etc.

In short, it increasingly feels like a game that rewards less skilled and casual players.

In fact, many players I know who have been playing for a while are abandoning it.

It will remain a casual game for casual players.

Too bad, it could have been so much more.

Update after S7.5 :

EMBARK ! YOUR GAME IS NOT BALANCED !

Cheaters are spreading and matchmaking is worst and worst

Putting a WT mode for pushing Light is stupid and useless. The class need a buff and you're still trying to boost your data on it to convince you in something that's didn't exist. Boost the DPS of this class. And the mode sucks

Give us an API to check some stats

** General feedback **

• In WT, objective score should give you more point at the end of a game
• If you do more than 50% of damage on an ennemy, YOU MUST HAVE THE KILL ANYWAY. Add "Assist count as kill"
• In pratice game, add friendly fire option
• Improve your matchmaking in World Tour. No more Solo VS tri-stack
• Add "steps" in reload animation so when you climb on something during a reload, it's not completely reset.
• Add a report option " Sabotage " in the report section IG when people leave or AFK on purpose.
• Let us choose our sight weapons at the beginning of a game
• Random charm list for weapons/gadgets. EDIT : Can we just choose our random skin & not all our skins ?
• We shouldn't lost point in ranked when a team mate leave the squad & 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 banner of friends & recent players.
• **Give us the possibility to customize rules in private match. Like "only M & Dual Blade", "only Light & SR84", "only marksman", "No heal, Light only & grenade only". You can imagine all you want & put it in private match for streamer & their community to make the game more fun **

**⚖️ Balance ⚖️ **

• Nerf CL40. For real this time
• Revert the nerf of the XP54. What's the point of putting XP at 16dmg when M11 (an other SMG) do the same, faster & with more bullets ?
• Rework Nulifier (again) : When you get it by the "Taser" recoil is increased but you can still move as you want & you take 5 dmg/sec by the electricity during 3 sec. Can hit multiple target when you shoot.
• Increase the hip fire the CB01-Repeater
• Rework Vanish Bomb. Make it start regen instant. It will increase survability for the Light & it can be use for your teammates too !
• 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 like Riot Shield.
• Nerf the range of the KS23. You can put 100 dmg at 20m.
• Nerf PIKE to 48 dmg instead of 50 dmg.
• Rework defib: Reduce the cooldown reset to 5s and give 100HP instead of 50% of your HP. It will force Medium to revive safer !
• Winch & lockbolt shouldn't do 5 damages. It's already strong enough
• Rework the ARN into a real AR ? Slower RPM but much more DMG. Something like the FCAR for example.

The effort to play Light correctly is too damn high compared to Medium & Heavy class. There is no fun at all playing Light. When will we see a META with Light ?
Share with us your data on all class. Light are getting vanish by 80% of the weapons in your game and can't get a proper 1v1 without get instant kill. You destroyed the stun gun. You destroyed the XP54. Everyone viable weapons or gadget has been destroyed by other class because they can't track properly an other class with 150HP.

** 🛜 Servers problems 🛜 **

• Improve your netcode/tickrate ! Dying behind walls is not acceptable at all ! Dash is not viable because of this right now !
• Flamethrower & hook should NOT get you through walls, doors and farer than it should be
• Sword, dagger, DualS or all other melee weapon feels unfair when you think you're out of range and die anyway
• Having good connection = Death behind wall, door, ect...

BattleField 6 will finish you and your poor balance

Buff CL-40

buff sledgehammer
nerf cl40
add fgm-148 javelin as a specialization for heavy
keep sword bad

[umbral swift]

Sword requires 70+ on Primary Attack (PA) and 140+ on Secondary Attack (SA) to be viable.

• To be viable VS
  • Heavy: SA x2 + PA must be ≥ 350
  • Medium: SA + QM + PA must be ≥ 250
• AKA, SA must be ≥ 140/PA must be ≥ 70

Rotation Clamp must be removed for Secondary Attack to be viable for combat.

• A tiny sidestep makes it impossible to land
• You can’t even look at anyone not on your FOV
• Vertical rotation clamp only has 2 uses:
  • Adjusting ground lunge distance
    • Flick up to ensure max possible distance
    • Flick down to reduce lunge distance
  • Hitting someone above/below you mid-air
    • Mid-air lunge causes no movement
    • Only works if already in melee range
• Every single ranged/melee can 360°
  • Ranged? Turn and keep shooting
  • Melee? 360° mid-active hitbox
    • Sword Primary Attack can do this too

Primary Attack spam is less skillful, less counterable, and less fun for both sides.

• Primary Attack
  • No charge-up, can be spammed any time
  • Works even without cover
  • Works even if Glitched
• Secondary Attack
  • Charge-up time forces using cover/Dash
  • Flicks only change Sword hitbox direction
  • Only Dash/Grapple changes where you move
  • If you can’t use Specializations, you lose

[minor yoke]

reduce RS loss if your teammates are afk/disconnected/left

[warped meteor]

Double barrel needs a rework. A guaranteed 1-2 shot kill on the fastest class is not balanced, or fun to fight against at all. Light has so many tools to get in and out fast, its a lot easier to aim a shotgun than it is to track a dashing light, and the ttk is stacked in the lights favor.

Even if the light whiffs, they still have enough mobility and gadgets to get out with minimal risk as long as they arent charging into a team alone. It's too safe for the reward.

[dense phoenix]

nerf the double barrel please

[celest estuary]

Give Medium the Goo Gun as an ability and give Heavy the Zipline as an ability instead of gadget.

[safe ravine]

Embark, I have to say your game is trash. I'm 1000hours in and I've loved it ever since the first season.
Been playing cuz i love the freedom of gameplay you get and this hero build functionality is very peak. I started off in S1 with a very bad PC so i played it for fun. But ever since my recent pc upgrade ive been wanted to grind the diamond skins in ranked.

I can confidently say this, your ranked system is garbage.

Other than the matchmaking, that I'm sure you know is horrible. You're balancing is probably at the worst it can be.
It's so saddening to see how rewarding some disgusting strats are: riot shield, thermal vision, cl40... For a shooter this game rewards very poorly good aim and skills.
As a low plat and high gold player, somehow I constantly match the same sweats unemployed dudes that are rubys and spamming the same tactics -- and the numerous cheaters ofc. (Funny thing is I started picking up the riot shield and can easily 1v1 the ruby players that have been picking it up 24/7, they're brains are so switched off from spamming that they can't even outskill a gold player with the same kill potential).

I'm still grinding the S7 diamond as I can, getting +500 in 45min games and -1200 in 10min with lovely randoms 🙂
But I'm burning out of your boring game, it's always the same. Nobody runs creative builds, only boring bland and effective ridiculous builds. (Btw as a light main, playing medium felt trash really the worst of the worst class, why does it exist? remove it at this point of how bad it is)
Once I get the diamond, I'll stay away from your game until it gets fixed. It is nowhere near Majors ready.

Edit: easy fix could be a ban system, 1 weapon + 2 gadgets ban per team. You will see how 1 dimensional the bans will be with how oppressing certain things are.
Also there is no incentive to play ranked it's just sad. Ranked is barely populated. Invert WT and ranked rewards.

[sonic arrow]

Riot sheild and dual blades are still dead in a ditch after the small buffs

[fierce quarry]

Cerburus Pump for Medium is really really weak

[royal fractal]

Many many many many no regs, the servers feel very wonky.

[spark shard]

I totally agree, but when you say:

"Once I get the diamond, I'll stay away from your game until it gets fixed,"

I think you'll never come back. I've been waiting for them to fix the matchmaking since season 2, and it's still the same, being the worst designed matchmaking in the video game industry. It's been like this forever and they haven't done anything to fix it.

This has created a drip-feed of players leaving, getting us to the point we're at now, while others think the problem is: light is OP, medium is OP, heavy is OP, this weapon needs a buff, that weapon needs a nerf,... etc... They don't realize that the root problem is the mediocre matchmaking system we have, which has only made people stop playing because the matches make absolutely no sense.

But hey, I don't expect anything anymore since the base player count of this game is very, very low, so the injustice of this system will be even greater, until there are only a few thousand people playing, who will be the same players over and over, ruby, tryhards, etc... It will become a game for a reduced number of people, until it finally dies. It's the typical outcome when you don't take care of the matchmaking.

[waxen hornet]

can i get a cycling buff on the model its pretty slow for going in the old way unless im using it wrong already?

[robust umbra]

QOL Suggestion: Can we get a feature that make it so that when we go to the equipment tab from the main menu we can customize our specializations, weapons, and gadgets with sights, skins, stickers, and charms as a default setup. My hope is that this would make creating a new contestant faster, by not having to go and recustomize my equipment the way I like it each time I want to create a new contestant.

[weak meadow]

Can we please expect mnk support for this game?

[quick coyote]

Add more unique badges to the game already: death tracker and/or KD tracker, kills on weapons, stolen cashouts, etc. Need more than just the 3 redundant stats that are already listed and sponsors.

[compact python]

I dont know if yall have already thought about it, but during the pro matches moderators should be able to pause the game in case theres like a peripheral issue or something like that. Like League of Legends or CSGO

[maiden anchor]

You lost your mind when you said you play lightly, simply the most insufferable class in the game. You really need to get your ass kicked by Riot Shield.

[jagged vector]

Give us a kill cam please

[green summit]

This, Please

[woven karma]

If all of your changes are implemented and the majority are unpopular, what should happen to you?

You are not a developer. Maybe try to champion a popular concern in the community instead of proposing a rework to several aspects of the game.

[late locust]

DEAR EMBARK:
Please release more Örf stuff, please and thank you :)

[light zenith]

thank you. also Skyssan, why you still here? Go play Bf6 if you like but dont trash our game feedback with unnecessary, well, trash

[vivid jewel]

ONE MORE CONTESTANT SLOT

[versed dagger]

goo mines

[crystal storm]

remove riot shield

[rigid trout]

Embark do you really feel like riot shield should be in this game, its too easy to use and too hard to counter unless you have a 3 stack with good communication. If you get split up its as good as a death sentence. What's the point of running guns when riot shield is so easy to use

[midnight aurora]

snipers need to be banned from powershift. literally the only thing that stops games from being fun

[remote valley]

i just want the spawns fixed

[frank holly]

I second this notion! I'd rather vs anything else in the game.

[arctic bone]

Honestly how would they fix spawns anyways? There so much movement like the only map I never get spawn camped is kyoto

[oak root]

For my personal liking you receive the legacy battle pass tokens way too slow. I paid for my battle pass and yet it feels so unrewarding before you get enough tokens. Way too slow personally

[inland scroll]

Might just be me but could we get a “r_drawviewmodels” type of binding? I would like to disable my viewmodels so I can see more around me. Team Fortress has it and I think people would actually enjoy it.

[covert dagger]

The matchmaking at this point has become an equal game killer as the balance issues. Stop matchmaking premade teams with teams of randoms

[ruby dew]

this game sucks... BUFF SWORD TO HOW IT WAS BACK IN S3, S4!!!

[merry spindle]

5 v 5 cashout pls
also sword changes with locking in place are kinda lame up close … if ur gonna keep it like that maybe make the hitbox on frame 1 bigger to compensate?? luv u embark k thx bye

[leaden grotto]

Can there please be an sbmm mode introduced. I've heard that there is one already in place but I don't necessarily agree since I have 50 hours on the game and frequently get emerald players in my qp lobbies, almost every match is 30k kills+ mega sweats. For reference I have 960. Also maybe move stacked teams into matches with other stacked teams.

[dawn valve]

Serious question, why the FUCK do ANY weapons of medium or heavy have higher DPS than ANY light weapons? FCAR alone outshoots pretty much every light gun, even at POINT BLANK somehow. Lights are so heavily underpowered in high ELO, I'm sick of trash ass players complaining, it is NOT an easy class to play.

TTK:
FCAR v light - 0.67 seconds

ARN v medium - 1.16 seconds
V9S v medium - 1.00 second
XP v medium - 1.05 seconds
LH1 v medium - 1.11 seconds

Lights are supposed to be squishy, but when you have players who located at shoot you within 0.5 seconds, the margin is INSANELY small. I can even sneak up on a medium, start shooting a good 0.5 seconds and still lose, assuming around 80% accuracy. Of course this also doesn't take into account the use of demat, every mediums favorite crutch.

@quartz dirge I was editing you jerk

[quartz dirge]

picks best automatic in terms of ttk on medium
picks worst automatic in terms of ttk on light
What is this strategy called?

[analog wigeon]

You're playing a Fragile Class. I feel a weapon isn't doing its job if you aren't dying quickly to an enemy using it effectively.
You have less health, WAY way more mobility, and a smaller hitbox. If you're not moving correctly, you're going to be punished.
Cant tell you how many times i've been outplayed by a V9S light that knows how to move correctly, even with something like a Shotgun, CL-40, or Rifle like the FCAR or AKM

(Also i agree with Laz here, please remove Sniper from Powershift, the sightlines are all abysmal with very little ability to cover all angles with Cover. the LTMs have diffrently balanced weapons/Diffrent avalable weapons, why cant something like Powershift, TDM, or Cashout have diffrent rules from each other Weapons wise)

[fading token]

The matchmaking has been terrible for me, ranked tournament me and my duo can't find someone who is decent just like the other teammates, we are tired of babysitting while doing everything and in the meanwhile they are going out for the kills or doing bs moves like killing us, not talking about the ranking difficulty, that too is a problem, you can't write easy difficult and then have smurf players against us, i am not a pro player, just an enjoyer who plays for 4 hours max for 3 days at the week, i wanna have some sense of advancement. please fix this matchmaking it's making me going out of my mind, especially on a tournament

[dull mesa]

good game 🙂

[solar spoke]

Make at least one of the heavy LMGs worth shooting.

[topaz condor]

No lose penalty in ranked if both teammates leave first round.

idk about you but i think light is in a good place right now i think youre just bad maybe

buff dagger & reshaper ^_^

[knotty ginkgo]

I come with two things today. 1. ADD KEYBOARD AND MOUSE TO CONSOLE PLEASEEE
2. maybe give medium a gun like the M11 which doesn’t do as much damage i think that would be chill

[merry estuary]

add friend spectating option por favor

[analog fog]

this game is dead. Embark gives no fucks and are just flogging a dead horse in a last desperate attempt to milk it for whatever slim profits are left to be had while they pivot to arc raiders.

[zinc pier]

me when I lie

[shrewd echo]

I think game would benefit from a cheese sandwich pet, Battlefield has nothing on your destruction, maybe more explosive stealth bomber air strikes with auto cannon fire when we play. I want to be able to use a rotary phone to call in an air strike with a heavy and destroy building holding cashout. Have those jets flying colorful gas behind them accidentally drop their pay load on the map.

[unreal zodiac]

WHEN IS SPEAR GETTING FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[torpid quarry]

Turrets dont belong in your game

[nocturne tendon]

Make all DMRs projectile bullets

[gilded wasp]

honestly i played in season 1 and quit after 2 because of the fact there wasn’t keyboard and mouse support for console and i hate using controller i definitely think lots of people would agree

[wise fiber]

Hey Embark, I'll be happy if we can set Mouse Zoom Sensitivity Multiplier above 100 which is too low and kinda ruins the aim

[drowsy vigil]

d

[sand copper]

Give everyone 1 more gadget slot

[scenic notch]

Man, hell of a game, deserves to be much larger than it is, currently. That being said, holy hell is the new player experience a nightmare. I've not experienced this much sweat since watching Carmack give away his Ferrari during a QUAKE tourney.

[worldly thunder]

as a new player, what do you think should be changed, tweaked, added or deleted in your opinion?

[green spoke]

BRO EMBARK FIX UR SERVER, IM KEEP DISCONNECTING

[maiden jolt]

Maybe we can shoot while climbing up ladders and ledges so this way, i won't have to keep getting rendered defenceless and getting shot at. Also pls stop queuing me with ppl who don't even know how to aim

[languid dagger]

I think matter is a really unsexy looking gun in general can we please try and make it look a little more presentable embark, thank you.

[cyan cairn]

Delete the riot shield idgaf

[violet widget]

people are gonna hate this but can we have a game mode without ability? The game has become less about aiming and more about using ability

[lapis harness]

Needed key bind options/qol changes.

1. Being able to switch interact but leave swap gun key

2. Being able to swap Gadgets with clickers throw/activate keys

3. Add a way to choose to auto attach to ladders or need to hit interact to start climbing(or just replace all ladders with zip lines)

4. Raise controller default sensitivity to like 300&290
   (This is to help the new players all decent players i know are around 500 & i’m at 750)

Nothing crazy but would be game changing.

Also buff dagger a charged dagger stab with how long it takes to charge and to get next to someone should do the same as a snipper if its charged no reason i should have to dodge snipper shots all the way to the snipper for them be-able to shoot melee combo me after i hit a charge and like two normal slashes

BUFF CL-40

[pine frigate]

For the love of god nerf the double barrel the fact it can 1-2 shot all classes is terrible, this is coming from a light main. Takes no skill, don't have to aim, why even go sword or dagger as a light when the double barrel is stronger in every way and has range.

[inland maple]

What they really should buff is model

[wooden atlas]

The single biggest problem in The Finals—bar none, I would dare say—is the matchmaking. This is a great game whose experience is consistently ruined by matchmaking that forces low-level solo players who are still learning the game to fight unstoppable 3-stacks on comms. My feedback is usually opinions, but I think it’s an objective fact that NO ONE should be matched with or against players who are dozens of levels above them. I as a level-85 player am constantly placed in the same team as a pair of sub-30 newbies. It’s not fun for me, and it’s got to be even more painful for them to have to face all the sweats at this level. TL;DR PLEASE do something about your matchmaking Embark, it’ll go miles toward improving your game’s performance with your audience.

[quartz glade]

PLEASE

• let us disable the 3rd announcer in game, he repeats so often.
• add more events to world tour, the redone version of dead go boom was great, but more events! So much potential

[tame abyss]

Bow is literally a shotgun with marksman capabilities that you can hold a full draw indefinitely
Has no reload time ( and no the half a second it takes to replace a shot arrow is not enough to be called a reload) and can deliver full damage at any range
It's also very spammable while it retains high damage even when not a full draw
Headshots at close range are ridiculously easy to hit because the thing is essentially a hitscan in CQB
The only gun that comes close to that kind of burst damage is the DB which has the obvious drawback of only having 2 shells and a downtime due to the reload
Bow was better when you couldn't hold the draw for eternity

My suggestion would be to only be able to hold the bow at full draw for like 7 seconds
I see so many bow users holding the thing at full draw and just using the dash to move more quickly to where they wanna be.

Just throwing idea's out there but in the current state the bow is literally better at being a shotgun than the actual shotguns.

[rustic tinsel]

Even if it's not 40º,as long as any form of aim lock exists,sword will have the most idiotic handling.Since the rotation clamp is clearly the biggest thing that makes the weapon unusable,it should not exist in the game at all.You should just revert sword back to how it was in S1 and S2, when there was no multi-hit. Sword back then was a bit weak, but that’s okay. It’s better than receiving a dumb patch that destroys the weapon’s original identity, even if it’s a weaker weapon.

Because you thought sword was weak when there was no multi-hit,you patched multi-hit in.But because your obsession with keeping that led to the dumbest decision, even removing mechanics all other weapons have.

Every weapon,when in close range,can naturally move behind the enemy or slide behind and turn to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to dagger and all weapon?Why, sword can’t turn around like all does? Every weapon can naturally turn around and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that?

Even that previous hit sweep nerf made sword too weak and you ended up reverting it.Yet now you’re doing something even worse.

Someone says,"Don’t remove multi-hit from Lunge" because without it,sword will become nothing but an M1 spam weapon. But that’s dumb take. Sword is already useless M1 spam weapon. Lunge is already useless in close range thanks to the aim clamp.Even with multi-hit, you can’t land it cause rotation clamp.The real priority isn’t keeping multi-hit — it’s removing the aim clamp. I’m not against multi-hit; what I’m saying is that aim lock should never exist.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good.There are many weapons stronger than Sword in melee: Pike,Riot,DB,M11,Shak,SA...
Who’s the narrow-minded person who decided on a patch like this that ruins sword’s identity by thinking “melee should just be dumb M1 spam”?

Nerf Riot shield, nerf CL40, nerf Winch

in a completely isolated and fair 1v1. if u hit every bullet on a light. u should get rewarded with the kill. same if a heavy hits every bullet on a medium. he should be rewarded with the kill

[vital basin]

stop ruining melees embark, please I am begging you. I'm not even taking the time out of my day to learn riot shield because I know you're gonna nerf that shit in a few weeks. Let melees be what they are, weapons that deal high damage at close range.

[jaunty tundra]

the cheating in ranked is getting absurd. Please, Embark, get your things in order. I'm almost out although I love ranking since S1

[ebon birch]

embark pls let us next season or in the future to be able to switch our emerald skins for others that were in the same tier, for example, if i get emerald 2 this season and get the riot shield, then I can swap it with any other emerald 2 weapon that was in previous seasons for example the famas, cause I main the famas and I don't need the riot shield, and if I have an emerald 1 then I can swap it with every other emerald 1 skin and same thing with 3, this way u give players a chance to get an emerald skin for their fav weapon and not to mention that we probably gonna run out of emerald skins in the far future so maybe introduce like an emerald shop where u get emerald tokens in world tour and u can go to the emerald shop and pic whatever emerald gun skin u want

[exotic kiln]

Hello Embark Studios,

I love The Finals for its fast-paced action, destructible environments, and creative loadouts. I believe adding a Battle Royale mode could take the game to the next level and attract a huge audience.

Why it would work:

Unique Destruction Gameplay: No other battle royale lets players destroy the map like The Finals. This could create epic moments and new strategies.

Dynamic Gadgets: Grappling hooks, explosives, and healing gadgets would add a chaotic and fun twist to the shrinking zone concept.

Replayability: Every match would feel different thanks to physics-based destruction and creative player approaches.

It could start as a limited-time mode to test community feedback, and if successful, become a permanent feature.

Thank you for creating such a fun game — I hope you consider this idea!

[hidden swan]

There is this issue in the game lighting since the start, i thought players would have mentioned it, but its not fixed yet, so here is it

Scenario when you are inside a room and look outside from the window, the exposure is so high that you cant see shit

remove the sniper from powershift

[clever bone]

I mean thats just an unreasoneable take on balancing the bow and how it works. The most important things youre argument is just blatanly ignoring is that the bow has significant downtime if you miss. Not bc of bad aim but bc good players know how to play around that with theire movement. Like i said in my first message even if you feel like its easy to hit (i have 30 smth hours with it bc i mained it on release) ill tell you its not "hard" but almost any other weapon is easier to hit with. To further expand on the downtime even if you do hit every shot with the bow and even get some headshots mixed in with that at close range the ttk for every other class exept lights bc of the oneshot is higher than most weapons if you account for the difference in hp. In a light 1v1 your are also almost guaranteed to lose if you dont get the inititial headshot since light has the highest dps weapons in the game. And to cut throught your point of spamming it and not losing much damage is also just poorly looked at: The bows power is at its peak when its fully charged, not only bc the highest damage increase is after its fully charged but bc its accuracy improves miles when it is. So no you cant spam the bow bc you will lose not only dmg but more important accuracy on a weapon which is alr harder to aim with than most other weapons. So to conclude hit your shots and play around the bow knowing its blatant weaknesses since its so different than most weopons 😉 ( also the only weapon that is truly harder to hit is throwing knives bc theres 2 shorter range and agressive drop)

[safe ravine]

So true, it's so grindy, ranked should be the grindy mode. But both WT and ranked are.
I'm done with everything and currently trying to hit diamond on ranked, I'm so burned out. Ranked is in a terrible state and there's no incentive to play it, that it's barely even populated. This will be the only season I touch ranked, after that never again, it's such in a poor state. Overall everything is, let's be honest.

Kinda ironic they announed Majors...
You'd think ranked would be great by now, before doing any competitive event.

[coral swan]

i have been playing this game for quiet some time now, i really enjoy this game and i would consider myself decent. however i am limited due to the game not having any middle eastern/dubai servers. i have to play at 100+ ping which limits my chances of winning due to an unfair disadvantage and not skill issue.
i ask for the game to give us middle eastern or dubai servers in order for the people in the region to enjoy the game fully and not be in a disadvantage.

[green summit]

Y'all, if you're in here and all you do is complain about skill issues (which is most of it) then please don't, if you don't like the game then you can leave, I'm pretty sure most of us do actually enjoy the game, in the last couple months I've put in 600+ hours into the game just because how fun the gameplay is, I don't think I could ever get tired of this game if I'm being honest. School is starting today for me so I'm not going to be able to play it as much, but I still definitely will with most of my free time. Also please add emerald tokens for reaching emerald on WT fr :3
Also the guy above me is right, they need some servers over there.

[dark niche]

ranked is fun but last night me & my team went fifth in maybe six games in a row? its really the third parties..every time we were about to get a cashout we'd get third partied. also the boxes disappearing during overtime..i see why we made the change and i like the thinking but i think overall it was a bad idea

buff dagger & reshaper, ily embark <3

[feral kettle]

Grenade launcher needs to be tweaked again the required amount of skill is nihil. And people be abusing it. Honestly there are a few counters like close range and aps but thats quite it. It should maybe have less splash damage. I feel the heavy grenade launcher should do the damage the CL-40 does. Because that weapons requires way more skill

[proud laurel]

It “feels” like lights need break and medium and heavy need a bit more attention either by making them more interesting to play and maybe think about tweaking the m11/xp that way they aren’t the “objectively” better option mainly in recoil for a class with the highest mobility it seams odd that out of all the class they don’t have to really try with recoil patterns while meds/and heavy’s if you don’t at least practice the weapon it can be unforgiving

[jagged vector]

You guys need to upgrade your servers. When I bit an input it doesn’t work and often I have to hit multiple times for it to work

Guys, I heard but didn't follow that kaiju will appear soon, I really hope that it won't load my PC even more, especially if it will be on a map like Kyoto, I don't like playing on it anyway because of the freezes and the fact that it is often darker than other maps, well, maybe they will add something like that in some rounds of the tournament (like an event) it would be possible to ban maps? (I don't want to object to those who love this map or to limit them in any way because of their whim)

Re-nerf Winch back to 10meters and lower stun duration, it is worse than beta stun gun.. because of the ridiculous utility it offers ON TOP of giving you a free kill. Did i mention the laughable low recharge time and 5 damage as cherry on top. absolute joke

Also stop making it hit on the way back!! Dude missed his shot, why on earth does he get a second chance to connect??

It's all you gonna see otherwise at the 250k $ tournament, ALL lights will be forced to run E. Dash to counter it. Zero build variety...

NERF PIKE to 49 damage !!

Buff breach charge fuse time, takes forever to detonate

Buff Reshaper recharge time, or bring third charge back

Buff Pyro grenade AOE

Nerf Demat recharge time, give 0.3 second delay to each activation to prevent spamming

Add iron sight to sniper , increase hitscan range by 10m

BRING BACK BANK IT

[viscid igloo]

Can we please have a discussion about the over-prevalence of Lights in TDM? It is consistent that every match I load into has a majority of Lights on both teams and I'm sure many others have had the same experience. I dont feel like its fair to let one class dominate an entire gamemode. I feel like something has to be done about this, we constantly talk about balance this and balance that but then let this kind of issue persist with little to no discussion about it.

I feel like the essence of TDM is to be more lax and freeform than the other gamemodes, but this core idea is completely crushed because Light is allowed to roam unchained and spam thing like smoke + thermal vision, endlessly toss glitch grenades or have 3 evade melees dance around you with very few ways to stop it.

I propose a restriction on how many of one class is allowed to be on a team, say 2 max? How do others feel about this proposition? What are your ideas?

Finals seems to pride itself on variety, so it feels very counterproductive to let TDM flounder like this. Why add it in the first place if you're just going to ignore it?

It is also very hard for our feedback to feel seen. I realize Embark isn't the biggest team, but is there really no way for you to let us know that our feedback messages have at least been read? Please do not end up like all the others, be better.

[dull trench]

another day another post about how dog shit this WT matchmaking in EU is. It's impossible to play solo on here, people are either full on smoothbrains playing like they are new to the game while being lvl80+, play like it's full on casual QC, use turret (now that is what i call a usless spec that is 100% throwing matches), or can't follow with their aim a STATIONARY TARGET (even did show video proof before here) and than you put me against a team of diamonds/rubies that have such small cahones that the only thing they aver do is 3rd teaming after the other team got whiped so obiously we loose tha cash (honestly getting 3rd teamed by people after you just whiped a whole team just feels disheartening and even worse when you got smoothbrain teammates). This is impossible to play, this is just down right sadistic. You have such a good and amazing game yet it's berried under shit tone of microtransactions, and the worst matchmaking there is. Here you are asking 30 bucks for a battlepass yet can't deliver a decent enough playing experience

P.S The cheating problem for this game is fucking ginormous. My best estimate is that at least 30% of rubies is cheating (including some of your partner programs) and in ranked matches anything over a plat match has at least 1 cheater. It has gotten so bad that every season we got more and more cheaters in WT too. Salt to the wound is your "pity" rp that should give 1k minimum for a lost match with a cheater in it yet here i am with my 50 that is an insult at this point. THE 30 DAY BAN FOR CHEATING IS ALSO MINDBOGLING AND A SLAP ON THE WRIST FOR ANYONE CHEATING, IT'S AN INSULT TO YOUR PLAYER TOO.
I honestly think the anticheat you got has to be a free version that does literary nothing and the only way to ban someone is to send you a video. There wasn't even 1 match where it detected the cheater

[limber sapphire]

I play in Israel, you just have a bad connection bro. My advice is to use your hotspot instead of WiFi. I dominate on PS4 with a hotspot.

Dear Embark,

Please for the love of God, fix the idiotic healing meta and please stop pushing esports. Literally ruining the game for casuals

[rustic tinsel]

Even if it's not 40º,as long as any form of aim lock exists,sword will have the most idiotic handling.Since the rotation clamp is clearly the biggest thing that makes the weapon unusable,it should not exist in the game at all.You should just revert sword back to how it was in S1 and S2, when there was no multi-hit. Sword back then was a bit weak, but that’s okay. It’s better than receiving a dumb patch that destroys the weapon’s original identity, even if it’s a weaker weapon.

Because you thought sword was weak when there was no multi-hit,you patched multi-hit in.But because your obsession with keeping that led to the dumbest decision, even removing mechanics all other weapons have.

Every weapon,when in close range,can naturally move behind the enemy or slide behind and turn to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to dagger and all weapon?Why, sword can’t turn around like all does? Every weapon can naturally turn around and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that?

Even that previous hit sweep nerf made sword too weak and you ended up reverting it.Yet now you’re doing something even worse.

Someone says,"Don’t remove multi-hit from Lunge" because without it,sword will become nothing but an M1 spam weapon. But that’s dumb take. Sword is already useless M1 spam weapon. Lunge is already useless in close range thanks to the aim clamp.Even with multi-hit, you can’t land it cause rotation clamp.The real priority isn’t keeping multi-hit — it’s removing the aim clamp. I’m not against multi-hit; what I’m saying is that aim lock should never exist.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good.There are many weapons stronger than Sword in melee: Pike,Riot,DB,M11,Shak,SA...
Who’s the narrow-minded person who decided on a patch like this that ruins sword’s identity by thinking “melee should just be dumb M1 spam”?

[glass fjord]

Revert all deploy time changes. Its causing all kinds of gadget deploy issues and demat fails, and was a completely useless change.

[sterile canopy]

Preserving muscle memory is not a good justification for preventing balance changes.

[stoic remnant]

I have a suggestion (complaint), add more "weight" to the penalty for leaving the "World Tour" game mode, maybe deduct points or something more serious (I can't think of anything now)

Man, you don't know how many times I've seen people quit the game right after start a few minutes it because of a bad start (like a team wipe or lose the first cashout). It's like, man! There's still plenty room for improvement, and much more! And people leaving the game puts the team at quite a disadvantage! It's annoying, very annoying, and as someone who plays that mode a lot I can say that it really ruins the gaming experience, sometimes even leaving you completely alone!

Of course, this is all just my opinion! Thanks for your time! (whoever you are reading this!)

[craggy nova]

Can u guys do something about the shitty spawning in skyway stadium, where the attacker are at high disadvantage. Sending the attackers from the same spawn after failing multiple times from the same side is really bad idea it’s like the attackers are destined to loose. Fk.

[hoary kernel]

Since I've been seeing a lot of people talking about how the riot shield needs a nerf. I figured why not give my suggestions for a rework that still makes it fair for both sides of the shield. This perspective is coming from someone who has been playing riot shield since season 1:

Passive block, the main thing people have been talking about - My suggested rework is to nerf it a bit , but give it utility in other places. The passive block is 100% essential in how the riot shield plays, so it should still be in place. But I think the shield should be at an angle to allow for people to shoot the legs/feet easier while in a panic. Heck maybe even making the shield slightly smaller when not actively blocking. But, the utility side of it could be that the shield stays to your side while performing long actions like reviving or stealing. Its main gimmick is blocking bullets, why not lean into it more?

Active blocking - in its current state, it's almost never used in higher level play. Active blocking should serve a larger role in how the weapon is played. There's two suggestions I have for this, and I'm not too sure which one would be better. (Or both together would be good)

1. Making the active block more protective, make the shield larger and cover more of the body. Could even have more protection against things that normally pass right through the shield. And depending on how much the passive block gets nerfed, a slight movement increase
2. Allow the ability to crouch while blocking for absolute full protection from the front, with the downside of very slow movement speed.

I'd love to see what other people have to say about this potential idea.

Should consider adding south african servers, theres a lot of potential players there, you'd be surprised how big the gaming community is

[thorny viper]

I have a issue with the game, which is people leaving without any concequence. I would like to have it when people leave the game to many times (Due to Rage Quit or Trolling) they would be like a "temporary ban". Meaning they won't play the game for a short period of time, usually like 15 mins. Which would increase overtime by the addition of 15 mins. Example 15 will be 30, then 45 then 60. I feel that would discourge people from leaving the game and solving the issue

[river wind]

Hey could you guys add a way for people to be able to switch gun attachments and skins while in the game

[karmic fiber]

Second cashbox despawning in overtime needs to be changed to something like: During overtime its value is reduced to $10,000. Also cashbox 5 and 6 should cost 20,000 instead of 22,000.

[ebon birch]

embark pls let us next season or in the future to be able to switch our emerald skins for others that were in the same tier, for example, if i get emerald 2 this season and get the riot shield, then I can swap it with any other emerald 2 weapon that was in previous seasons for example the famas, cause I main the famas and I don't need the riot shield, and if I have an emerald 1 then I can swap it with every other emerald 1 skin and same thing with 3, this way u give players a chance to get an emerald skin for their fav weapon and not to mention that we probably gonna run out of emerald skins in the far future so maybe introduce like an emerald shop where u get emerald tokens in world tour and u can go to the emerald shop and pic whatever emerald gun skin u want

Old sword was broken, 140 dmg was to much. I want melees to be viable but right now most of them need a rework, there is no skill on getting close and doing insane dmg without the need of aiming, the only exception here is dagger. The recent sword change is good, it makes it more unique compared to the rest of the melees (except the m1 dmg buff), i still think it needs some type of buff to make it more viable but increasing only the dmg is not a good way of balancing

[grim granite]

[scenic notch]

The initial onboarding experience, mainly tutorials, explaining the game modes with more clarity, and easing you into the main attraction. It can be both intimidating for someone new, take myself for example, and being matched/paired with others who have hundreds, if not thousands of hours. Those players get stuck with a new player, and the new player gets yelled at for knowing less than they do. Being decent at FPS games is one thing, but The Finals is honestly more than just a simple shooter, which is awesome, but coming into this with the expectation of "You must know everything I do" or "Bro, go back to CoD" can be off-putting.

[safe ravine]

The griefing is unbearable. You can be soooo deserving of a win during ur ranked games, but u cant do anything because the matchmaking is terrible there is always a dominating ruby team in plat lobbies there to grief you (how tragic is this btw).

- Firstly, make ranked more incentive to play than WT Majors is coming up!! Wake tf up, why is the casual mode WT dominating in this game when MAJOR IS HAPPENING? Every other game the ranked mode is the most important

• Secondly, a friend had a good idea about dealing with griefing: When the first team manages to double the 2nd cashout. As they are for sure qualified, they should leave the arena and let the remaining teams fight for it. It's the only way to deal with griefing, and not make the box disappear, it didn't change anything.

[signal basin]

** Two mains problems on this game. BALANCE and SERVERS. I QUIT. **

Cheaters are spreading and matchmaking is worst and worst

Putting a WT mode for pushing Light is stupid and useless. The class need a buff and you're still trying to boost your data on it to convince you in something that's didn't exist. Boost the DPS of this class. And the mode sucks

Give us an API to check some stats

** General feedback **

• In WT, objective score should give you more point at the end of a game
• **If you do more than 50% of damage on an ennemy, YOU MUST HAVE THE KILL ANYWAY. Add "Assist count as kill" **
• In pratice game, add friendly fire option
• Improve your matchmaking in World Tour. No more Solo VS tri-stack
• Add "steps" in reload animation so when you climb on something during a reload, it's not completely reset.
• Add a report option " Sabotage " in the report section IG when people leave or AFK on purpose.
• Let us choose our sight weapons at the beginning of a game
• Random charm list for weapons/gadgets. EDIT : Can we just choose our random skin & not all our skins ?
• We shouldn't lost point in ranked when a team mate leave the squad & 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 banner of friends & recent players.
• **Give us the possibility to customize rules in private match. Like "only M & Dual Blade", "only Light & SR84", "only marksman", "No heal, Light only & grenade only". You can imagine all you want & put it in private match for streamer & their community to make the game more fun **

**⚖️ Balance ⚖️ **

• Nerf CL40. For real this time
• Revert the nerf of the XP54. What's the point of putting XP at 16dmg when M11 (an other SMG) do the same, faster & with more bullets ?
• Rework Nulifier (again) : When you get it by the "Taser" recoil is increased but you can still move as you want & you take 5 dmg/sec by the electricity during 3 sec. Can hit multiple target when you shoot.
• Increase the hip fire the CB01-Repeater
• Rework Vanish Bomb. Make it start regen instant. It will increase survability for the Light & it can be use for your teammates too !
• 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 like Riot Shield.
• Nerf the range of the KS23. You can put 100 dmg at 20m.
• Nerf PIKE to 48 dmg instead of 50 dmg.
• Rework defib: Reduce the cooldown reset to 5s and give 100HP instead of 50% of your HP. It will force Medium to revive safer !
• Winch & lockbolt shouldn't do 5 damages. It's already strong enough
• Rework the ARN into a real AR ? Slower RPM but much more DMG. Something like the FCAR for example.

The effort to play Light correctly is too damn high compared to Medium & Heavy class. There is no fun at all playing Light. When will we see a META with Light ?
Share with us your data on all class. Light are getting vanish by 80% of the weapons in your game and can't get a proper 1v1 without get instant kill. You destroyed the stun gun. You destroyed the XP54. Everyone viable weapons or gadget has been destroyed by other class because they can't track properly an other class with 150HP.

** 🛜 Servers problems 🛜 **

• Improve your netcode/tickrate ! Dying behind walls is not acceptable at all ! Dash is not viable because of this right now !
• Flamethrower & hook should NOT get you through walls, doors and farer than it should be
• Sword, dagger, DualS or all other melee weapon feels unfair when you think you're out of range and die anyway
• Having good connection = Death behind wall, door, ect...

BattleField 6 will finish you and your poor balance

those are some AWFUL balance suggestions outside of the pike damage nerf

[unreal zodiac]

fix spear spin please embark please

[umbral swift]

Sword requires 70+ on Primary Attack (PA) and 140+ on Secondary Attack (SA) to be viable.

• To be viable VS
  • Heavy: SA x2 + PA must be ≥ 350
  • Medium: SA + QM + PA must be ≥ 250
• AKA, SA must be ≥ 140/PA must be ≥ 70

Rotation Clamp must be removed for Secondary Attack to be viable for combat.

• A tiny sidestep makes it impossible to land
• You can’t even look at anyone not on your FOV
• Vertical rotation clamp only has 2 uses:
  • Adjusting ground lunge distance
    • Flick up to ensure max possible distance
    • Flick down to reduce lunge distance
  • Hitting someone above/below you mid-air
    • Mid-air lunge causes no movement
    • Only works if already in melee range
• Every single ranged/melee can 360°
  • Ranged? Turn and keep shooting
  • Melee? 360° mid-active hitbox
    • Sword Primary Attack can do this too

Primary Attack spam is less skillful, less counterable, and less fun for both sides.

• Primary Attack
  • No charge-up, can be spammed any time
  • Works even without cover
  • Works even if Glitched
• Secondary Attack
  • Charge-up time forces using cover/Dash
  • Flicks only change Sword hitbox direction
  • Only Dash/Grapple changes where you move
  • If you can’t use Specializations, you lose

[hearty bough]

Would be worth experimenting with less cash in cash boxes 5 and 6, as current-state it’s somewhat brutal that you can secure the first two cash boxes and then still lose due to a double-up or unlucky split depending on how far / not far ahead you are in points.

Maybe 18k total in 5 and 6 respectively?

[lapis harness]

The ultimate battle pass was robbery along with the $ amount set sets. The whole point is to have stuff they know people would want to pick and chose but can’t just get the one item out. An played right into it. The only reason they have sets you can’t use mb and a bp that you can’t get with mb is so you have to spend more then the few $ it would have cost to get that one item or use the mb you already have for the ultimate.

fix your matchmaking day #1951235125812521825211588. in no way shape or form WT is working rn, you load into a game with a nolife 50k+ kills kid that will 100% destroy your without of single chanse to have fun or fair game, it's a fun game for them for sure, but not for the normal ppl. this game rn feels literally unplayable with how bad the matchmaking is. @dark niche how is that my problem? a bunch of streamers groomed their audience into thinking that SBMM is something bad, because they can't farm 20 kills game every time, and actually need to play against ppl of their skill lvl. World Tour is half-ranked mod, and the only mod they reward you with coins for rank, 3 of my frineds already left the game because how unplayable this mod is, and i'm on the verge. For the past 3 weeks literally every single day, in 95% of my game, i log in, i die and see some 50k+ kills nolifer, and i know, even if i'll shit myself i can't possibly win this game, the #2 is my limit. This kills the whole purpose of this mode, i'm so tired to play against those ruby nolife kids who play this game 12h a day....

PLS ADD KBM SUPPORT FOR CONSOLE

[true void]

A lot of folks aren’t understanding that the Light class is supposed to be a glass cannon. It’s supposed to have high damage weapons because of the low health.

The 93R doesn’t need a nerf. All other Light weapons should be brought up to match its effectiveness. Although I will say, the double barrel is too powerful in its current state. Further, dash needs a nerf. Either remove one dash charge, increase the recharge rate of charges, or add a longer delay between being able to use each dash charge.

[flat pawn]

This game NEED more casual or arcade like game modes if it wants to grow.

I LOVE The Finals, ive played it just about every day since launch and its my go to shooter but it has a few big problems. The lack of real growth and a limited pool of game modes that are VERY competitive.

every time i bring friends into this game they almost always want to play Power shift because its not a "sweat fest" or "more casual". I love playing competitive but i do agree with them, this game NEEDS more long term "fun" game modes! i remember falling in love with Halo, not for its story or competitive scene but because of the fun and wacky game modes that the COMMUNITY made!!!

i can understand(to a point) not allowing us to make custom maps but at the very least allow us to make our own custom game modes? give us the ability to make the game modes like you do Embark?! i want to set weapons, and classes and equipment! i want to set team sizes and what the Objective is! i want to make game modes like Prophunt, Hide n seek, Infection and so many more!

there is so much potential with this game and i want it unlocked!!
allowing players to make there own game modes and publish them would make this game explode! I just know it! and if your really smart, have a rotating playlist of the more popular game modes so everyone can play them, even if they dont have enough friends for a full game!!!

[rough gyro]

Seconded!

[glass fjord]

Can anyone explain why muting and blocking someone does not stop their pings? Why allow someone to spam nonstop with no cooldown infinitely? Like wtf.

[clever canopy]

I have 3 character and 1 private match additions, I would absolutely love if they were added. For characters:

1. first person inspect of all weapon skins (currently can only do if they’re in a bundle or are in the shop)
2. One extra character loud out. I have 3 mediums and 3 heavy. And it’s annoying that I only have 2 for light, since it means sometimes when I want to switch to a different loud out, I have to manually change everything. 3 for each class is perfect.
3. Hand cosmetics being equip-able on either hands. Some of the items, I want on a different hand (e.g. the red hand from S7 bp, I want on the left), or might want on both hands (e.g. the rings from S5 bp).

And for private matches, settings for the game modes is so needed.
Nothing crazy. Simple things like timer, respawn time, tokens etc.
When I’m playing with 3 other friends, we really want to do a 1v1v1v1 world tour, but due to limited Tokens and being killed leading to long respawn time, it’s not really possible to do.
And even world tour modifiers being pickable like the wall hack one.

[tribal spoke]

Buff dual blades DMG to 63/63 please currently the combo system sucks it adds nothing

[sonic spoke]

So true

[harsh cliff]

fix ranked point system, it's just not fair. you take two cashes in a row as a team, then one team takes the last cash you just lose. how is this fair ????!!! we play better for a whole match then last cash just because it's just a mess with so many players on one cash so the chances that you get a cash you put is very high. the whole ranked point system is just so bad
again for the million day I am asking please reduce the Light rank penalty. it's just not fair. I don't have people to play with. I play solo queue. I wanna rank up to diamond but with bad teammates just because it's solo queue it's impossible !!. it takes almost one hour to get 1100 point. then I just lose one match in like 5 mins because I have bad teammates. and of course -1000000000 RS. please do something about this. it's just annoying for me having 10kills per match and still not win. I am playing objective but my teammates are just roaming around like it's a death match. please this thing is so tiring and frustrating.

[hallow canopy]

I agree 100%

[tame vessel]

Spear: increase the first swing damage in the combo from 65 to 70 and the last one from 90 to 95 making it 70, 80, 95 and increase the spin attack damage to 120, it needs to kill a heavy with 3 hits because

Reason #1: you're vulnerable to being shot and killed during the animation

Reason #2: you move slow during the animation

Reason #3: you can't manually cancel it unless you use the communication wheel

and make the lunge speed a little faster because everytime i lunge towards my target, i don't get any closer, i've tried it on the dummies in the practice range

KS-23: either give it a 1.2x headshot multiplier or decrease the fire rate to 73 RPM and increase the player damage to 120

R.357: increase the fire rate from 140 to 160 RPM

Dual blades: make the Deflect more consistent so it can block all melee weapons and increase the first swing damage from 50 to 55, increase the second swing damage from 60 to 65 and increase the final attack damage from 65 to 75 and make it so the final attack can be done faster and increase the movement speed when blocking and deflecting and make it so the blades deflect pellets from shotguns more consistently and accurately because right now it's bugged, it deflects one pellet and then deflects more pellets at a certain range and the bullets come out of the person's head instead of their gun at point blank range, pls fix the bug

AKM: increase magazine capacity to 34, 35 or 36, the choice is yours on what number you choose

Data Reshaper: increase the charges from 2 to 3 and decrease the cooldown from 26s to 20s

Model 1887: remove the eject-and-catch-shell reload animation and make its tactical reload like the KS-23's tactical reload and increase the fire rate to 85 RPM

Embark Leadership,

Why the actual fuck have you not nerfed the Double Barrel and CL-40 already? You removed Mediums wallhacks, but still haven't removed the toxic Cloak and Vanishing bomb, is your brain still at the mortician or something? When even your own devs working on Arc Raiders think the Finals balancing sucks for most of your community, maybe you should listen to them. Seriously fire the team lead that doesn't seem to understand common sense balancing and hire an Arc Raider dev to lead the balancing team.

The fact that now devs from numerous companies think your balancing blows for 90% of your community should be a wake up call.

• Nvidia
• Steam
• EA
• Hell even a sitting U.S. senator looking to legislate your ass for purposely misbalancing the game to sell skins to children, you would think you'd get your act together. Don't get mad at me, get mad at the Steam devs that called your asses out in the presentation slides to concerned parents.

I get you want this game to be an eSport, but nobody is going to give a flying fuck if the game is balanced like shit for the other 90% of the playerbase. This idea of just balancing at the top 10% and then allowing the most toxic, cheesy, and cancerous bullshit within the remaining 90% is simply unacceptable. 90% of the playerbase wants a game that still rewards skill, not cheesey ass bullshit.

[slender pine]

it would be cool if the death recap included the full damage instead of like the last 100

[frank holly]

Embark, can we PLEASE remove the sniper from Powershift already?

It is single handedly ruining every match because of how oppressive and annoying it is. You can't even shoot back since the recoil and damage fall-off with every other gun in the game makes it impossible. Even with the pike, landing 4 consecutive shots on a pixel in the distance with that recoil before they un-peek is not happening often.

Even if a team member counter swaps to sniper, now there's just 2 problems ruining the experience for both teams...

In before everyone says "just hide behind wall" bro I may as well go afk at that point...

I REALLY wish the pike-556 had a red dot sight. Love the game btw. Just thought this would be cool cuz i dont like the 2 sights we have rn.

[green summit]

Wanting to remove cloak and vanishing bomb is actually crazy, Both Double barrel and CL-40 can be countered easily, To be honest it just sounds like you are having a skill issue my guy, Cloak has the counter of both sound and sight, Double barrel is kinda op but it still kill lights using them all the time, just dont let them get close to you. CL-40 has the aps turret as a counter and also just good movement. If you dont like the game then dont whine because you have a skill issue and go play something easier.

[tranquil galleon]

honestly just delete lights at this point like clearly they're too op, have too much health, and they have the ability to kill heavies so they should be deleted plus they get dagger, too OP like lights shouldn't even be able to kill any other class, their existence is just unfair, easiest class, just remove it.

• Option to disable the 3rd announcer with his frequently annoying repeated lines

[rotund gust]

I stopped sending important things that could so easily be fixed over and over in the hopes someone at Embark saw it.

[hearty bough]

Maybe because the CL40 is a C-tier weapon at the very best, B tier in incredibly skilled hands.

It is annoying to get shot by it due to the visual clutter and sound, but is objectively a weak weapon with low overall DPS, a very long reload, and few situations where you can reliably land grenades - if enemies have even the slightest high ground on you you are then forced to land direct hits, and far away enemies can easily dodge grenades since they have travel time.

I would agree that CL40 is bust in Power Shift alone, because people are forced into a small open area that’s easy to get high ground on and mindlessly spam grenades, but the game should never be balanced around power shift.

The CL40 needs some sort of rework to be not-annoying to noobs, but also at least somewhat viable/not a throw pick in competitive/competent lobbies (let’s call it gold 2 and higher to be generous).

I’m sure they haven’t further nerfed it because the data shows that it’s a weak weapon overall, it just thrashes low level lobbies because those sorts of players don’t understand that you can completely negate CL40 with good positioning.

[still cloak]

How, tho?

[jagged vector]

You guys is seriously unbalanced. It’s so fucking nuts. Right shield with a mini gun teammate like what the fuck am I supposed to do against that? There’s no reason that a weapon should have the ability to only be shot in two fucking places and even when being ran at not taking any hits. What a fucking joke, man

Come on. This is a problem. PLEASE do something about your matchmaking Embark. This kind of thing will hurt new player and veteran player retention alike, and I love your game too much to see it die without at least saying something. Just match solos against solos, not against premade teams, and low-level players against each other, not against sweat lords. It’s that easy.

Even if it's not 40º,as long as any form of aim lock exists,sword will have the most idiotic handling.Since the rotation clamp is clearly the biggest thing that makes the weapon unusable,it should not exist in the game at all.You should just revert sword back to how it was in S1 and S2, when there was no multi-hit. Sword back then was a bit weak, but that’s okay. It’s better than receiving a dumb patch that destroys the weapon’s original identity, even if it’s a weaker weapon.

Because you thought sword was weak when there was no multi-hit,you patched multi-hit in.But because your obsession with keeping that led to the dumbest decision, even removing mechanics all other weapons have.

Every weapon,when in close range,can naturally move behind the enemy or slide behind and turn to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to dagger and all weapon?Why, sword can’t turn around like all does? Every weapon can naturally turn around and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that?

Even that previous hit sweep nerf made sword too weak and you ended up reverting it.Yet now you’re doing something even worse.

Someone says,"Don’t remove multi-hit from Lunge" because without it,sword will become nothing but an M1 spam weapon. But that’s dumb take. Sword is already useless M1 spam weapon. Lunge is already useless in close range thanks to the aim clamp.Even with multi-hit, you can’t land it cause rotation clamp.The real priority isn’t keeping multi-hit — it’s removing the aim clamp. I’m not against multi-hit; what I’m saying is that aim lock should never exist.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good.There are many weapons stronger than Sword in melee: Pike,Riot,DB,M11,Shak,SA...
Who’s the narrow-minded person who decided on a patch like this that ruins sword’s identity by thinking “melee should just be dumb M1 spam”?

[young jetty]

CL-40 is still incredibly overpowered and the sword buff was not only completely unnecessary but also made the weapon completely overpowered.
Dash is also incredibly overpowered as it’s a get-out-of-jail free card to absolutely any melee weapon except another dash user which should not be the way it is.
I can’t speak for PC users but on console it is genuinely impossible to hit dash users consistently due to sensitivity.
And finally invisibility is incredibly inconsistent across all platforms… PLEASE make it consistent. It should absolutely not under any circumstances make fights rely entirely upon how much money your willing to spend on you gaming system. On ps4 it is GENUINELY invisible while on a newer console/PC it doesn’t even compare. This is by far my biggest gripe about the game in its current state.

[lapis harness]

Sword is broken and needs a revert its unbalanced now. Them not having to pair attacks with lung for lowest hits makes no sense like 2 swords run up who ever spams swing right wins because swing beats lung and is faster to follow up.
Dagger need the charge time lowered because you can literally be touching a heavys butt well they run but if you charge your knife they will out run you and if the first hit doesnt land the next 5attempts wont. Like just please go back and make the weapons more balanced and fair.

embark pls let us next season or in the future to be able to switch our emerald skins for others that were in the same tier, for example, if i get emerald 2 this season and get the riot shield, then I can swap it with any other emerald 2 weapon that was in previous seasons for example the famas, cause I main the famas and I don't need the riot shield, and if I have an emerald 1 then I can swap it with every other emerald 1 skin and same thing with 3, this way u give players a chance to get an emerald skin for their fav weapon and not to mention that we probably gonna run out of emerald skins in the far future so maybe introduce like an emerald shop where u get emerald tokens in world tour and u can go to the emerald shop and pic whatever emerald gun skin u want

[narrow spade]

Smoke, thermal vis, and winch need to be vaulted until a rework comes through.

Smoke is entirely against the principles of this game. There's no counterplay through positioning or environment. It not only shuts down the enemies ability to see anything, but also teammates. Meaning unless your entire team is basing their composition around smoke, you're oftentimes just slowing down the pace and ruining any form of competitive enjoyment. The cherry on top is that smoke is widely inconsistent and setting based, meaning it can lead to cases where you are shot fully through the smoke without any way of knowing.

Thermal Vis is a similar case in many ways. You can't see that a light is using thermal vis, even after dying. Additionally, using thermal vis is an extremely buggy experience. In many cases it will make enemies nearly invisible, despite them being right in front of you. This gadget effectively feels like the other light is "hacking" and there's zero counterplay. Oftentimes you feel forced to use it if other lights are running smokes or invis, which means you're getting a buggy experience with less personal expression. Not to mention how you can often feel forced off of cloak/vanish because of thermal.

Winch continues to have these themes. It effectively provides a free kill at the start of every fight. There's next to no counterplay against winch, seeing as there's no wind up. Additionally, it usually will "finds a way" and connects around cover, walls, etc. However, it can also just decide to not work. Winch can visually fully connect with somebody yet not actually connect at all. This is all not to mention that mesh shield is completely useless against winch, ruining that aspect. Finally, it has been the primary factor behind ruining/ignoring Heavies close range options. Does this all seem familiar? That's right, it is buggy, inconsistent, uncounterable, and limits build variety. Just like everything else on this list.

[icy shuttle]

I swear winch hits the craziest shit on me

im talking heavy is looking thr other way and that shit flies in a circle and takes me THROUGH THE HEAVY into being infront of him

[spark shard]

Embark, at some point in your roadmap are you planning on changing the matchmaking? You spend every season focused on balancing weapons, and they will never be to everyone's liking, and frankly, this won't make people abandon the game.

The real problem you have is the matchmaking system, which creates a totally unfair experience for the player, and ultimately leads to them quitting. The current system is beyond repair; it's completely broken. You haven't touched any of this since season 2, which is long enough to adjust things to the current reality of the game's state: there are too few players to continue maintaining your current matchmaking implementation, it's unsustainable.

[fading flame]

make the smoke more see-through so it isn't complete bull when someone chucks it next to the cashout

If you are in this discord thread complaining about lights with a DB smoking you, it is not because the last final real shotgun has 2 rounds and a 2 sec reload.... it is because you have HORRIBLE positioning and need to learn how to play in a more suitable fashion that allows you to live

[formal coral]

Stop the CAP and get your arrogant ass out of here. I am a plat player with pretty decent aim and that gun is just cringe. Even with good positioning if the gun dashes at u and gets his 2 shoots u are dead. So stop caping and be real

[zenith river]

"it is because you have HORRIBLE positioning and need to learn how to play in a more suitable fashion that allows you to live" pretty ironic considering that 80% of light's kit is designed around compensating horrible positioning

[celest estuary]

For future update;

• Give goo gun to Medium instead of Heavy because Medium is the support with technology and stuff class + decent dps with famas, pike, etc.
• Give Zipline to Heavy instead as an Ability because Heavy should have at least a bit of mobility outside of charge and slam
• Give Pike more rifle scope variants instead of just the one it has right now and a 5+ damage buff on body because yes and give it slightly lower fire rate and -2 bullets for compensation
• Petition for a meow gun that sounds like cats when shooting and reloading.

yall are reverting most of the changes on sword but not on the sledge? cmon embark. 175 still wont get me QM combos, and thats what made it fun. winch claw is fine, it does not need rework. of course it hits on rebound its like a lasso.

[reef python]

When is riot shield getting a rework. ? Maybe shorten it so they can actually be shot at

[nocturne ridge]

yall dont get why people played the sword. making you aim up and down slightly more in a lunge is not a buff and not acceptable enough of a fix... the horizontal component is still so horrible to use you cant hit a strafing player without predicting 3 seconds in advance, You the developers need to play the game more no question about it, its actually bad how unbalanced these nerfs/buffs are, Not just for the sword but in general for all weapons.

[queen stone]

can we also turn the horizontal lock on sword up to 90 😭 if 40 isn’t good for vertical how is it possible okay for horizontally

my dudes, why buff sword more; also please improve asia server; i experienced red ping while playing both from bangladesh and japan 🙂

P.S: thanks for the sledge buff; previous nerf was too much, just the primary needs a bit more oomph; now it's more balanced and not on the op side at all (just compare with sword 🙂)

This is a Model nerf, it's going to break its own record of the worst reload in the entire game...

[fleet socket]

"Vaults/Cash Boxes that have not been delivered to a Cashout Station by the time overtime starts will no longer despawn, reverting a change made in 7.6. This change only impacts World Tour."

Change this back, a team that hadn't made enough money all game shouldn't be allowed to team with first place to win. If 3rd and 4th both have underneath 10k, second place should be allowed to stall out that box to despawn it to prevent greifing from first place

[real wyvern]

I like that devs see that model is underperforming
But 1 extra shell wont change anything.
It can have 30 shells in a magical tube compartment and it still will be clapped by automatics up close and it still will be a joke untill it can full damage+Quick melee lights.

The CL-40 grenade launcher is a B-tier weapon yes, but it's annoying as hell to fight. The fact that the weapon hits so far above its skill requirement is the issue; the Revolver and Repeater would like to have a word with the Dev who balanced this bullshit.

Usually the people screaming to use APS are usually the bad CL-40 players that are bad at movement and just keep shooting when the player has APS up or are bad players conforming their kit around a single individual with a CL-40 and hurting their survivability against the shitter's other teammates.

The CL-40 Noobtube has absolutely no business having any chance of winning in a 1v1 against any other weapon in a CQC fight without taking themselves with it, just like an RPG. It's an Area of Denial weapon for holding the payload or breaking up a turtling team, not a bunny hopping CQC weapon for shitters who can't aim to abuse.

Cerb can finally play around the utility that fire offers, and model can stay in the fight for longer before a 5 second reload

Nothing big or needed, just a good change overall

[frozen tree]

Buffing the vertical clamp for sword is nice, but is far from fixing the actual issue. An expansion to the clamp for horizontal movement could work (as long as it’s enough), but please just remove the clamp and remove multihit. Me and others have been saying this and it’s a way to give sword its identity back while also preventing hitting entire teams while spinning in circles

[orchid osprey]

There should be better collision for enemies so that you can't get barrelstuffed by the enemy moving inside your character. It's fucking stupid that it works against weapons like DB and revolver, weapons that should perform well under point blank range

[polar blaze]

Why are all these changes actually good? All of these patches are not the exact opposite of what everyone’s been saying😭🙏 Thank you devs, this is a huge W or at least a step in the right direction

[loud sinew]

add all past ltm back into the game in a new section called minigames.i think many causals will choose that over everything else

[dusty igloo]

The new outfit makes mediums look too much like heavies

[inland bay]

I don't understand the Model "buff". I usually die either because I'm stuck on the janky non-empty reload, or because I'm not doing enough DPS long before I even empty the clip. Adding an extra round is only contributing to the first issue, and the empty reload is by far preferable to reloading mid clip. I think the weapon performance is gonna be even worse going forward.
Cerberus buff good tho.

[mint quail]

hello, please Embark! I use Linux as my OS and I use proton services to play the game, since the last update (the head to head game mode update) I got kicked from every game I played, Please fix this, I have 500 hours on the game and I bought the battlepass and I need to finish it.

[fathom aurora]

yeah melee really needed another buff 🤣 what a joke. and that "buff" to model is just another nerf, it was already bad... no its just the same bad with longer reload, great job.

[sick pier]

I noticed this. Game ran considerably better in the first two seasons compared to now.. would love an optimization update or a true performance mode.

[west kernel]

enable steam workshop and let people put their cosmetic creation and let their idea happens (TF2 Style workshop)

[proud hearth]

ALWAYS MY TEAMMATE IS 1 OR 2LVL AND MY ENEMIES ARE 100LVL🙄 😒 I DON'T WANNA PLAY THAT GAME BECAUSE OF THAT

[thin falcon]

the world tour change doesnt seem to have reversed in my game it despawned after ot

[pseudo warren]

We got baited so much by the monster... he just stands there and throw rocks... Dissapointing.

[coarse scroll]

goblin update please

[hearty bough]

Well the thing is that in a standard close range 1v1 the CL40 does lose against every other weapon - the DPS is objectively lower than all of the guns. The only time CL40 wins that fight is if the CL40 user utilizes peek shooting from cover / movement to not be exposed between shots.

Saying that CL40 takes no skill is a massive fallacy - sure it FEELS that way when you are poorly positioned against one (5-10m away from them without high ground or cover to work with), but that’s where it is supposed to be strong. There are plenty of other positioning scenarios where the CL40 literally cannot deal ANY damage to you without a direct hit, which is something that guns never suffer from - if you see your target you can just click on them and not worry as much about how you are positioned.

The same can be said for melee - melee weapons are objectively some of the hardest to actually win with, but once you’re in melee range (granted you haven’t lost all of your hp getting into melee range) they feel strong and people cry “no skill” because they are only concerned with aiming and don’t think about everything else that goes into making something like melee work well in an actual match (again, not powershift or TDM).

The problem is high level vs low level player perspective. If you have a CL40 user in a plat/diamond lobby and they’re doing well, the usual thought is “damn that dude is really landing his shots and moving well”, whereas lower level players cry “no skill” because all they see is the smoke/noise/splash damage without ever considering that the CL40 only works within a narrow set of positioning requirements, and that the full damage radius is only 50cm which is basically a direct hit to the feet.

[wraith orchid]

sniper still the worst shooting weapon in the game🙃

[uneven wraith]

looks like nice new changes, but please please embark for the love of god enable player replacement in the world tour, its so unfair when you make it through to the next round with 2 of you and still the disconnected player is not replaced...

[low turtle]

What Ned is doing is just the Meteor Shower event.........

[leaden shell]

ok as corny as it is i like the Ned event its neet good shit embark

[ebon birch]

can we pls get a world tour boost as well embark? something like 25-30% would be amazing

[nova mica]

But not? It targets the objective at all time, way less noise, no fire, and much more fun

W embark

[dense marlin]

Remove hidden deadzone and add outer deadzone slider to controller on consoles

[vocal spruce]

Esports have begin

[topaz token]

More outfit slots, pleeease 😭 I have too many good outfits and can’t justify deleting any to purchase more cosmetics!

[barren hare]

The matchmaking has always been bad, but it's been especially horrendous today, it's been an issue for a very long time yet was never adressed
getting matched against pro stacks whose level are above 110 while my teammates are brand new players is getting really, really tiring

[valid zephyr]

Day 1 of asking for in game messaging and see your friends ranks in the friends tab. No idea why a competitive shooter doesn't have this for over a year...

[vast hornet]

EMBARK I JUST Played a ranked tourney box didnt despawn in a RANKED after ot and i lost becuase of it i want my rs back i cannot send a video because file is too big

[abstract elbow]

HIT REG AND LAG HAVE SOMEHOW GOTTEN EVEN WORSE IN 7.9. WAY TOO COOK EMBARK!!

[lime silo]

let us have the option to have a bind for hiding the hud

[frozen zealot]

Moving cash out locations should not be a thing in the final round of WT. It’s way too cheeky and overpowered for the team that initiates the cash out.

[pseudo surge]

Servers acting weird, my internet is fine I’m hardwired in and everything else works this will count against me because it’s ranked and it’s not me. I rebooted the game and have tried to reconnect multiple times. @unkempt cloak

[delicate marlin]

buff sword lunge by 5 dmg. Thats all it needs

[pulsar jay]

queueing with a major rank difference should require a team of 3, i solo queued and ended up with a silver against rank 69, rank 20, and rank 24

i agree with putting them in the rank of the highest rank player but i didnt sign up for this

[dawn valve]

Thank you so much for not addressing the, like, two MAIN THINGS everyone agrees on: Nerfing pike and Winch.

You just did NOTHING. No note that you'd look at it, no small change.

You're useless.

@pale aspen Are you just pretending to be dumb or are you a medium main

[silver granite]

You guys really need to do more in game surveys.

[kindred spear]

please make the meteor event last longer it's so short

[pale aspen]

Pike is fine, your skill issue is not Sir. Have a pleasant evening

[lapis harness]

NEEDED CONTROLLER BUFF
PLEASE FIX/ADD ASAP

SEPARATE INTERACT AND EQUIPT WEAPON

It sucks to close a door use a zip so on and put away your gadget you needed to use as your guy puts it away causing you to have to wait to repull it out late.

I have more but thats for newer players. This is for everyone!

[tame vessel]

Spear: increase the first swing damage in the combo from 65 to 70 and the last one from 90 to 95 making it 70, 80, 95 and increase the spin attack damage to 120, it needs to kill a heavy with 3 hits because

Reason #1: you're vulnerable to being shot and killed during the animation

Reason #2: you move slow during the animation

Reason #3: you can't manually cancel it unless you use the communication wheel

and make the lunge speed a little faster because everytime i lunge towards my target, i don't get any closer, i've tried it on the dummies in the practice range

KS-23: either give it a 1.2x headshot multiplier or decrease the fire rate to 73 RPM and increase the player damage to 120

R.357: increase the fire rate from 140 to 160 RPM

Dual blades: make the Deflect more consistent so it can block all melee weapons and increase the first swing damage from 50 to 55, increase the second swing damage from 60 to 65 and increase the final attack damage from 65 to 75 and make it so the final attack can be done faster and increase the movement speed when blocking and deflecting and make it so the blades deflect pellets from shotguns more consistently and accurately because right now it's bugged, it deflects one pellet and then deflects more pellets at a certain range and the bullets come out of the person's head instead of their gun at point blank range, pls fix the bug

AKM: increase magazine capacity to 34, 35 or 36, the choice is yours on what number you choose

Data Reshaper: increase the charges from 2 to 3 and decrease the cooldown from 26s to 20s

Model 1887: remove the eject-and-catch-shell reload animation and make its tactical reload like the KS-23's tactical reload and increase the fire rate to 85 RPM

[celest shell]

I wish we had a dagger buff for it's backstab, with the issues it has, it's just not competitively viable (hit registration and the 150° angle not being equal in both sides sometimes).

I've been playing it for a while, and it's just so difficult against any higher up players, there's a reason why it has so little use in competitive play

[bleak belfry]

okay, I am now SUPER pissed. I have crashed no less then 4-5 times and I don't know what the problem is. I literally can't complete a game because about halfway through for some reason I just crash. I haven't even seen the like new monster thing so maybe it's that, but I SERIEOUSLY can't play and it's making me angry.

[versed dagger]

publicly execute all lights

[untold hazel]

i hope to see that the winch db and riot shield people publicly get executed

[hollow badger]

friendly fire bro

[smoky trout]

Is that lock bolt I spy with my little eye

[fresh mountain]

buf shak50

[knotty ginkgo]

add keyboard and mouse support to console

[signal bronze]

Pike needs a little nerf

[torn canyon]

I'm not even sure if Embark realizes just how insanely overpowered the riot shield is right now. You’ve got players sprinting straight at you without even blocking properly, and somehow your headshots are still getting absorbed by the shield? Seriously? Do you guys even play your own game?

[sour trout]

it’s a well known fact the blocking animation and the actual shield hit box don’t match. They are working on it and today have released one of the first several fixes (check patch notes)

I got a better issue tho. Why in the ever loving fuc7 do I lose ranked points if a cun7 in my team decided to ditch the game at start, forcing me and another random to go 3v2?

please implement some kind of ranked points protection

[violet elbow]

Funny thing is that this was a thing in S2.

[arctic lichen]

fucking damn it with reverting double stack at the very last seconds of the match, this just make being 2nd useless, because even if the 1st and 2nd high the most cash, the 1st place team can just double stack to the 3rd or 4th place so the 1st place team have easier opponents next round, the same goes with the final round.

[ornate sage]

Embark give us more outifit slots and my life is yours!

[spare topaz]

Hello I have been playing since release. Why does this STILL keep happening?

[queen rapids]

Since when did the finals, a great arena shooter, become Kingdom come? Meta of flamethrower and melee is weird man

[foggy dove]

why are you guys thanking devs for buffing sledge when it cant even kill a light with one left click and punch

[wary flax]

buff shotgun hipfire aim assist, it’s impossible on console

[vital olive]

Where do we raise bugs, getting no revive bar when getting revived since the update intermittently and there seems to be an issue with party chat disconnecting after some matches requiring it to be toggled off and then back on again

[kindred swift]

I swear to god fix getting stuck on barriers on stairs and balcony when you jump on top of them you get sucked inside

[carmine warren]

It would be really cool to have more scope options that had different zoom levels

[granite seal]

The new player experience NEEDS improvement, skill gap is massive, balacning issues and solo queue is miserable.

[potent pike]

Hey The Finals Team,
First off, amazing job on the game — it's super fun and unique, and a lot of us here are really enjoying it
I just wanted to bring up an issue that’s affecting a big part of your player base. Many players from the Middle East and India are having a hard time with high ping because there aren’t any nearby servers. Most of us get 100+ ms which makes it tough to play competitively or even casually sometimes.
There’s a huge and active community here that would really benefit from regional servers — whether in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, or India. It would help reduce latency and improve the overall experience for thousands of players.
Hope you guys take this into consideration. We’d really love to enjoy the game at its full potential.

[quartz folio]

Can ruby players be removed from casual modes or at least play against their own skill levels. Sure it can be skill issue but it’s annoying having to kill them when they are dashing around unable to kill them

[forest obsidian]

man now u cant slide jump and keep running in controller

[inland maple]

make ranked playable and buff model +1 ammo isnt enough it needs faster reload or more damge

[opal tide]

btw. HEAD2HEAD is brilliant and for me personaly much more fun than ranked or world tour (people give up very quickly and leave)

Pls find a way to keep H2H as a permant mode in the game

[broken tiger]

major registration brings me to a dead page

[tough stratus]

good game

[glad creek]

Keep H2H as a permanent mode but instead of infinite coins they should have only 3 coins.

[chilly niche]

Head-2-Head not having the literal CNS V Vaiyya map is a odd choice. Should of been Citadel, Sys Horizon then all the maps with a CNS variant like Seoul, Monico etc

[final pine]

THANK YOU FOR ADDING A BLACK GEOMORPH (I can finally be the frontman)

[fringe apex]

"Vaults/Cash Boxes that have not been delivered to a Cashout Station by the time overtime starts will no longer despawn, reverting a change made in 7.6." SOO? Just played 2 world tours, every round they were despawning. NICE PATCH NOTES

[spare rapids]

Game will sometimes decide to use "enter" as the keybind that puts the game in window mode, so you sit there like a moron all game unable to communicate with your teammates unless you plug in your headse- oh wait... they arent in the voice chat.... 😔

[fallow urchin]

CAN WE UMM GET NEW GADGETS LIKE BOOTS WHICH TEMPORARILY ALLOW YOU TO RUN UP WALLS?

[young jetty]

CL-40 is still incredibly overpowered and the sword buff was not only completely unnecessary but also made the weapon completely overpowered.
Dash is also incredibly overpowered as it’s a get-out-of-jail free card to absolutely any melee weapon except another dash user which should not be the way it is.
I can’t speak for PC users but on console it is genuinely impossible to hit dash users consistently due to sensitivity.
And finally invisibility is incredibly inconsistent across all platforms… PLEASE make it consistent. It should absolutely not under any circumstances make fights rely entirely upon how much money your willing to spend on you gaming system. On ps4 it is GENUINELY invisible while on a newer console/PC it doesn’t even compare. This is by far my biggest gripe about the game in its current state.

Also add goblins to the finals.

[opal lintel]

Please fix the “arch rival” (anime’s skin) eye bug please, i want to be able to customize with all the new eyes coming out! It doesn’t make sense only a few eye customization (like 4 or 5) work!!! Has been an issue for a bit now

[fiery beacon]

So the fix to riot, was that ? Amazing, another 2 weeks of riot shield span everywhere. Try to play your game guys

[crisp heart]

please add hud safezone

[limpid shale]

Just found this chat.

Hey dont usually talk here. Just wanted to say that I think the denuvo choice isn't a great play by Embark.

The game is getting a lot of new publicity by big social personalities right now, and so a lot of people are looking. They're going to see (debatabley) one of the most disliked companies in gaming being added as Anti-cheat (uses Kernal Level and also AI, so players are 'training' a model without their knowledge).

Haven't personally ran into cheaters yet so not going to say there are none, but disappointed to see the path being chosen. Just wanted to voice my opinion.

If I should fill out a form or something else for 'voicing comments/concerns I'll send it there. Sorry if this wasn't the right spot.

[haughty lintel]

Keep Head-2-Head, love it so much. So refreshing to not worry about a third party. Not step down from quick cash for newcommers who are not used to the fast paced gunplay and sheer chaos that comes with the finals.

also for random skin, skin. You should be able to right click on the skins you want it rotation. Be a nice QoL

[tame abyss]

Menu becomes unresponsive after leaving a match on console
Need to reboot game for it to work again.

New update new issues :)

[zealous mural]

Log in> Play WT> get a 82k kills ruby against me> Thanks embark for the great matchmaking, you have 10k kills and playing since beta? yeah that seems like a good matchup for you buddy! enjoy getting shitted on with absoluly 0 chanse of winning! YEEY WE LOVE SHITTING ON PLAYERS HEADS IN EMBARK

[stark pilot]

lollllll

[spare ravine]

Embark LH1 exists you know that right, why sniper skins 24/7??

[coral seal]

Embark u know that other weapons like lh1 and 93r exist besides m11 and sniper u could maybe make skins for those weapons

[hidden hollow]

Is the in-game leaderboard supposed to be up to date. It looks like my leaderboard is just updating with the start of the game

[hexed frigate]

Ranked should be like the new 3v3 mode, since the matches are not going to be decided by luck, there will be no third parties, no unexpected things that make it feel unfair. The matches can be played in the best of 5 rounds, if you lose 0-3 you lose points as if you were eliminated in the first round of the current system, if you lose 1-3 you lose a few points, if you lose 2-3 you win a few points, and if you win the match, you receive points like winning a tournament. In addition, this way the world tour mode and the ranked mode would be more differentiated.

[untold meadow]

alright.... who in the hell asked for JUST vertical 90 degrees on sword and not both vertical and horizontal...? like who is making these changes?
