Add Bonus Pages to the Legacy Battle Passes. Taking away paid items is ridiculously unnecessary

[normal fjord]

Just had a guy throw in silver in second round from the get go, any chance I get a full refund on my points and not just 60?

[celest forum]

fix the crossplay to how it used to be.
I as an Xbox player shouldn't have to decide between a 15 minute queue or getting shit on by PC players.
it's bad enough now that you allow m&k support on console.
LET US CHOOSE INPUT LOBBIES.
we should have the option to have Controller only lobbies.
the game is already a nightmare solo, now toss in 3 other trios on PC and it's really a great time for me

[solar sail]

So you don't want 15 minute queue times but you also want to remove a pool of players that reduce queue times and then also filter out another pool of players by input therfore reduces pool of available matches even more.

It seems you are asking for 30 minute queue times

[frail tangle]

Rework spear secondary attack to be like it was in Heaven or else
Without the additional knock back

[tough willow]

Solo Q is brutal! I'm rezzing this guy for the 3rd time, and get wiped doing it, and he calls me trash? So now I have a disconnect penalty to pay because I'm not carrying anymore "die every 30 second bums" just to be abused for it. Of course I can't report him now either.

[lean bluff]

just wanted to say 1 last time before i quit FIX YOUR GAME the balance is frozen cos of majors? cos somehow the best teams in the world can't adapt to change! golds playing vs ruby's seems fair! new anti cheat that makes the game freez,crash and sometimes disconnects u for no reason! optimazation went to shit with most people loosing from 20 to 40 fps since new updates! high ranks that know eachother are teaming so they can throw someone out of the game (gl winning a 3v6 against em)! solo q is legit dead every match u get matched vs 3 stacks of pros or rubys meybe diamonds if matchmaking feels generus xD! cheaters boosting there friends to diamond or even better providing boosting services! some ruby's are soft hacking (no recoild scripts or emulating a controller or using 3rd party crosshairs) I QUIT

[analog sierra]

Make an option for Instant Replay AFTER and ONLY when your team gets wiped, so you can watch how you died without having to spam out of the replay to give your teammates comms/insight.
This late in the season getting a "Thank you for reporting" every other day from ranked, I think it'll be a good feature so people don't spam report without reason.

[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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
The occasional turning of aim was used to maximize multi-hit.
If the problem is wild turning, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if someone spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. Of course, dmg must also be reverted.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, and only listen to nerf whiners who never even used it?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

LOW GRAVITY IS A$$ AND SHOUYLD BE REMOVED

[keen karma]

• NERF 93R - IT'S CLEARLY THE MOST OVERPOWERED LIGHT WEAPON, I PICK IT UP FOR FUN AND DROP A 40 BOMB
• FIX RANKED GRIEFING - RUBIES ALWAYS PICK THE WORST TEAM TO QUALIFY IN THE SECOND ROUND. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING 2 CASHOUTS IN THE BEGINNING ONLY FOR YOU TO GET LAST PLACE? WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MAYBE LAST WAVE OF VAULTS SHOULD BE 1 INSTEAD OF 2? I'M SURE THE EMBARK DEVS CAN THINK OF SOMETHING BETTER!!!!!
• SOLO QUEUE RANKED SHOULD ONLY MATCH AGAINST SOLO QUEUES INSTEAD OF 3 STACK UNEMPLOYED RUBIES STREAMING ON TWITCH TO THEIR 2 VIEWERS. HOW IN THE WORLD IS THAT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD?
• WHY WOULD YOU DELAY BALANCE UPDATES FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYER BASE BECAUSE OF ESPORTS? ESPORTS PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADAPT. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THE WINNER IS HML WITH 93R, DASH, HEAL, FAMAS, WINCH, SHAK. SO PREDICTABLE AND BORING!!!!!
• REVERT SMOKE NERFS, SMOKE IS LITERALLY USELESS NOW, FEELS LIKE 3 SECS AND ITS GONE
• FIRST ROUND RANK LOSS SHOULD NEVER BE -1600 RS, YOU DON'T RESPECT THE PLAYERS TIME WITH A SUPER PUNISHING RANK SYSTEM LIKE THAT, FEW DAYS OF PROGRESS GONE IN 10 MINUTES, THATS WHY EVERYONE WANTS TO QUIT RANK. THERE NEEDS TO BE A LOSS CAP OR TEMP FORGIVENESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@sterile canopy if they ever fix ranked ruby griefing during first round and ruby smurfing then yes my last suggestion wouldn't make sense. Losing major points with broken factors only demotivates ranked players

[outer agate]

More points for a loss in world tour, maybe 3 or 4 instead of 2

[tired fable]

Why you are not bringing so much hype for this game as Arc Raiders, given that the latter targets a smaller player base? And why is your communication better for Arc Raiders than for the final?

i agree, i bought the S3 Legacy BP, and just found out one of the bonus page items would be perfect for my outfits, but i can´t get it

[full umbra]

The game has lost it shine for me, once loved it, now i cannot even play couple hours without having existential crisis.
i'm tired of playing WT or ranked in 35k just to get stomped by top500 players.
you should consider changing the ranked system, to something without change to grief
like 1v1(power shift), not 1v1v1v1
i'm not even going to start with the smurfs...

[raven garnet]

goblin in the game

dindt play this game in about 9 days i join back first game against somebody with 3k plus wins and 50k+ kills and joining late game is this how u treat ur playerbase really? and server issues

reduce reload time for model

[neat pike]

I bought the premium battle pass with my tokens. It took my tokens and didnt give me premium, only the regular battle pass. Then when I went to check for my premium it told me I was getting a refund when I purchase. What?

[sterile canopy]

The last suggestion doesn't make much sense. If you make punishments less harsh then you need to make rewards less generous as well, otherwise you'd have rapid and superlinear elo inflation, which would completely break the system's usefulness . Losses must always take less time than wins for as long as we have a tournament system.

[vestal prairie]

-10 bullets on p90

[limpid crescent]

A ranked point rework would be greatly appreciated. We queue into this lobby and see the possible rank gain, and we all agree that it's probably just going to be a really easy lobby. The problem is that we load into the match and our first fight is against a 3 stack of ruby smurfs, all under level 50 with ruby badges. We got griefed in with almost no money and lost the next round (losing as much as we should have in a 5 seed first round) by getting 3rd. I know there's no good way to counter smurfing, but this just can't go on like this, it makes ranked unplayable.

I might be okay playing against smurfs and losing sometimes, but I just can't when the penalty is >450 rs for getting 4th place in what should be a ruby lobby.

[echo panther]

please give us another iron sight option for revolver where this is removed like bfr it would help alot with accuracy and visibility

[fluid stump]

What are you talking about ?

Make it two player pool, controller and MnK, simple as that, instead of filtering the platform, filter the input device

[still rose]

please add a feature to where you can change the size of the sight reticle, its so inconsistent between each gun. the compact is PERFECT on the ARN, but I use it on XP and that thing is as big as the enemy's head 😭

is it true you have to keep you position as ruby to get the ruby rewards?

[echo saffron]

No

[rotund thistle]

Our team really played well, hard last round, but we clutched it up and got a win. 1200 points. Next game we're in an easy lobby with smurfs and cheaters with 140 wins and laser beam aim seeing us through walls... lost all our points.

[torpid turtle]

Sound in this game is bugged and sometimes you won't hear enemies, even the whole match at times. They just sneak up on you even with good headphones

[wide creek]

Remove prox and sonar from TDM, ruins the whole experience, just becomes mediums spamming mines and turrets 24/7

Literally every medium in high elo is running Revolver or Repeater, which kill me (light) even at extreme close range. Fuck your meta

93R still absurd

REMOVE FUCKING WINCH AND LOCKBOLT

@honest talon Long range weapons NEED a maxium damage range, YES. I dont give a fuck how unrealistic it is, a revolver should not be beating me with an M11 at 3 meters range. So fucking tired of every medium running Revolver, Repeater, FAMAS because they have no downsides

[nocturne tendon]

Nerf Sword standard attacks damage, swings way too fast in a wide area

[honest talon]

The low rank experience the worst item is definitely the sword. I’d be a big fan of mines proximity being buffed while their damage takes a nerf. Winch could benefit from a slower pull in time giving the other player more time to react. Semtex/Throwing hatchet as a gadget for medium/light to balance heavy having rpg which if not for structure is a delete Lights button. The p90 could also benefit from a tuning. 40 in mag with a severe damage fall off after 25-30 meters would make it less of a crutch. Famas could use a recoil/hipfire adjustment. Some weapons could also benefit from the tf2 crossbow treatment the further you are the more damage the closer you are the less. Namely marksman/snipers. Just some early game musings from someone in silver which is a lot of the player base

[waxen thicket]

Buff fire damage so that the burn stacks upto 2 times every second. Not would it make pyro grenades viable, it would also make Cerberus and Flamethrower actually viable weapons.

Add headshot multiplier for the KS23 and classify it as a Carbine
(which it actually is, according to the official Russian weapons database), so that it's not completely useless compared to BFR or Deagles. Or remove the innate inaccuracy and let it function like other shotguns, since it cannot headshot anyways.

Let Dual Blades block also reduce incoming explosive damage by 25%, just like melee damage.

Like the event, remove the last 2 spins on Spear's spin attack.

Add 10 impact damage to MGL32's shells, so that it can break arena props and reduce ttk with perfect accuracy.

Let players bring another weapon or specialization in exchange for 2 less equipment slots, which would make the niche weapons more viable without sacrificing the innate benefits of all-rounder weapons.

Add crop tops

[indigo geyser]

This is just for clarity's sake. Can we make the "change loadout" ui easier to spot from a glance? Or give it a different color background like a game "button?" It's been bothering me that something as important as the "change loadout" option is so small and in the corner. New players often miss it (myself included, I know I did when I started about a year ago), and I kind of understand where it comes from. They want you to be able to watch the big cinematic gameplay without distractions. But why isn't it at LEAST a little more highlighted than it already is?

[smoky mural]

What if The Finals adds a role above enemies health, instead of names in the settings. Since sometimes i confused mediums with lights a bunch of times. Wondering if I'm the only one struggling with that.

[covert oxide]

Solution for sword:
exactly how it was in S6 EXCEPT:
No phantom strikes
Lunge aim is locked to 270 degrees sideways, not locked vertically, and once you’ve left the 40 degree zone to one side, you are locked from the other direction. So you only have 155 degrees on any lunge, either to the left or to the right.
140dmg, old timing and distance and dash synergy.
74dmg, old timing and sweep path.
There was nothing really wrong with S6 other than phantom strikes. This is nerfing it even a little more than that. But it would bring back the skill, identity, and uniqueness of the weapon. And it would end this boring M1 spam state we are currently in.

[pliant whale]

[quartz ivy]

Add Bonus Pages to Legacy Battle Passes. Paid products have no business being changed after purchase

[plain jacinth]

Ranked mode is heavily affected by smurfs and cheaters boosting. One improvement could be restricting ranked party access(duos/trios) to accounts with at least 300 hours of playtime. Accounts under 300 are free to play solo. Additionally, a separate solo queue would help create a more authentic and balanced competitive experience.

[lethal shell]

idea for a turret buff:

Turret has 0 place in competitive and almost casual play too, it’s so countered by everything but i have an idea.

Give it 3 modes, you swap the mode by left clicking with the pad, one mode is the one we have right now, the next a grenade that does some aoe damage but not big damage make it less range then the normal mode, and finally a flamethrower that is very short range. This’ll give turret players a buff that is very needed

[south knot]

FIX THE BUGS, HEALTH UPDATE PLEASE.

[pliant lichen]

This. Myself and a lot of other people are just putting the game down until next season. Those patchnotes need to address SOOOO many of the problems that the game has RN. It's just gotten ridiculous, how many little things have started to pile up.
Those are just the bugs too. Let alone the QoL things which haven't been seen to yet. Just not good enough, unfortunately.

[shrewd echo]

Idea: Bank it with designated return vaults, random spawn locations.

[rapid pike]

Honestly I dont want any new flashy weapons or maps or features next season. Please just take a month or two and pump out bug fixes, performance improvements and QoL changes.

I don’t know why I have seen this more but PLEASE add a way to 1v1 friends in the practice range, either add a friendly fire option or make a separate room for 1v1s or something just to help newer players or to have fun. This would help learning new guns and help 1v1 engagements overall and I would enjoy this so much. Right now the only way to do this is a private match but the match is huge and so you would not be able to fight quickly

[wide creek]

So let me just cover the basics of gunplay, since Embark seems to not understand it.

Gun effectiveness could be categorized by 3 things: TTK, accuracy, and Effective Damage Opportunity (EDO). EDO means the number of chances a gun has to do effective damage, for example M11 with a short range has a lower EDO since it has generally less chances to deal max damage, while the Revolver has a high EDO, with a longer range. I say EDO instead of effective range because its more of a range + class health, since a heavy sniper can stand still longer than a light sniper, therefore increased EDO.

Now lets put in it practical terms. A light has high mobility, but low health, therefore the main effected factors are lower Accuracy (dodging) and lower EDO (low health). Therefore, light weapons should have a low (better) TTK. Most light weapons follow this, however, the 93R has both a low TTK AND a higher EDO due to very long range. Combined with burst fire (somewhat higher accuracy), this makes the weapon unbalanced, outclassing almost every other light weapon. Reduce damage or reduce fire rate

Mediums are mostly balanced, however the Repeater and Revolver are not. Snipers (or semi-snipers like Revolver), should have medium-low TTK to offset the high EDO (huge range) and high accuracy. Both aforementioned weapons have too high TTKs, therefore not offsetting other factors and making them far too effective not just at long range but at short range as well. They need either a reduction in quickscope accuracy or higher TTK.

Now heavies are the worst of all. Heavies should have a high TTK to offset high accuracy and high EDO. Heavies don't run or dodge, they stay still, giving them more accuracy and higher EDO. Yet somehow, the average TTK v. lights is LOWER on heavies than mediums, making no sense at all. Throw in gadgets like winch + lockbolt (massive EDO and accuracy increase), shields NAD healing , and you've created an unstoppable light killing machine.

Nerf Heavy Now

[median bloom]

Still have not done one single thing to improve ranked.. very sad

[hollow sage]

My personal experience with matchmaking in Quick Play is very bad as of late. One-sided match after one-sided match. And because no rewards are given to the losing team in Power Shift (or TDM if you lose both rounds), it just feels like a total waste of time and energy. I'm not a very competitive player and don't always have a coordinated team to enjoy World Tour/Ranked. I don't think I should be punished for that.

I don't mean to complain like this. It's just that Quick Cash and Head2Head require coordinated teams to even begin to enjoy. The other two modes, Power Shift and TDM, are significantly more casual, but because there's no money rewards for losing, those frequent one-sided matches just totally kill the vibe and make me not want to keep playing. :/

I started Season 7 but never got to try Bank It or Terminal Attack. Please bring those back with Season 9 :)

...or maybe even a PvE mode? Hmmmmmmmmmmm..... Now that would be fun with all the abilities this game has.

[lofty hornet]

This has been asked a million times. But can we please tie weapon skins to outfits instead of contestants / loadouts?

[ruby birch]

30 second respawn time is genunly mental at some times i die and the cashout is alr done.

[ebon vault]

Most of the weapons in the game don't have it.
Edit- my bad I thought this was talking about the data breach skin. The name immediately made me think of that effect for some reason

[unreal plaza]

there is a single round for the entire 3 days where people can get eliminated in a cashout round. If you dont lose 3v3s, youll very easily make it to the final 4

[wooden atlas]

I, a level 100, matched with a guy who’s literally on his first match against a double-stack with an aimbot…something’s not right. Please do something about this Embark, it’s S8 and you’ve had plenty of time

[hybrid oracle]

Day 23 of asking Embark to bring back bonus pages from past battle passes

[tidal folio]

Would love a butterfly knife skin for the light dagger weapon

[mint sonnet]

Maybe this will make the dagger op but there are too many movement penalties for dagger. You slow down while charging and climbing over resets heavy charge. Maybe have the heavy charge not slow your movement but make a loud noise after using it and slow you down a bit. As is, the only advantage dagger has over shotgun is that it does not need to reload but even then shotgun has a higher fire rate. I would argue that shotgun has more consistent one shots too from the amount of clips where back stabs aren't registered at all

[wild pewter]

To expand on it:

• remove audible noise from charging the backstab
• make inspects non-audible for opponents (for all weapons)
• remove movement speed penalty from backstab
• Allow us to keep backstab charge while climbing (auto-vaulting has fucked up more than 1 easy backstab I wouldve gotten and not having it ready as soon as you climb makes you so vulnerable after almost any vertical movement)
• If the backstab is charged half-way or 2/3-rds of the way already, then finish charging it and do the backstab even if it is released earlier

[crystal ravine]

remove the sniper from power shift, shit is unplayable

[deft topaz]

Sorry but this is a bit of a bad take. I understand what you're trying to say, and some of it I partially agree with. I also understand this feedback comes with good intent. But you have a huge bias in your assessment, in that you dont take into consideration the impact greater movement abilities and smaller hitboxes have on all of the points you made. The fact that heavies for the most part can't poke the way Light and Medium can (other than with the titan which I'm totally fine with it being nerfed) mean that there has to be upsides. Heavies are correctly much stronger in short range situations. And even then you can still dash and use movement to beat a Heavy.

If you are trying to 1 vs 1 a Heavy up close as light, and think you should be able to beat them, then what you really want is an unfair balance that favours Light class in all situations.

Again, I'm sure you earnestly believe your feedback is right. But its not.

[glacial geyser]

I'm fairly certain that anyone who complains about Heavy doesn't actually play the class...

They will perceive one or two things as OP while ignoring all the other imbalances that come with actually playing Heavy.

Heavy being OP died with the (correct) removal of the nuke.
I'd say that I would certainly be ok with them toning down the titan as well, but I'm personally in favour of lowering the effective range of all weapons 🤷‍♂️

@wraith orchid I can't reply to you because of the slowmode, but your message just sounds like you want the game to die. Casual players are the backbone of a game. Either it was a poor attempt at sarcasm, or you are an employee of a rival developer.

[quartz ivy]

Add Bonus Pages to Legacy Battle Passes

[wraith orchid]

PPLLLLLLSSSSS

balance the game around high rank players.

why?

BECAUSE LOW RANK/CASUAL PLAYERS PLAY THE GAME SUBOPTIMALLY.

fuck people having no fun bc they dont want to actively learn to get better. this is already a complex game where you need to think and be creative to get better results. it has enough to offer that is FUN. we dont need „casual fun“ weapon balancing

make all weapons playable (nerf the op ones)

accept that you need to drastically change firerates if you want to keep the hp pools AND achive balance.

[manic pebble]

whats up with the matchmaking? ive got a few friends into the game and theyre bronze/silver xbox players, and we keep getting matched with ruby players like every 3 tournaments. is there just not enough people online to get an even tournament?

[mental delta]

why can't I say humongous in game chat

[outer jetty]

Dead game. Maybe until next season.

Stopped playing after poke weapons being an issue for the game. There is no balance or any joy. It's just another shooter game with poke weapons being a powerhouse of lobby stomping.

This issue just creates a brainfog for non-skill issused players
The game is more aim than strategy now.

[smoky gust]

i hope vaulting/climbing gets some improvements

it can slow you pretty badly (sometimes interrupting stuff like grappling), which can make you take more damage or even get you killed
sometimes it happens when you didnt want to, even small steps can cause it
while at other times, you can try to spam it as much as you want, and you fall down anyways

i think making it faster, or otherwise having its momentum changed so its smoother would be good
maybe with the option to bind "attempt vault" to a specific button, so it doesnt happen unless you deliberately try to, and then does it more consistently when tried with a bigger aoe check for vault surfaces

[polar yacht]

I'm glad theres people that actually see how op light has been with melee weapons ive stopped playing cause its not fun getting 6 lights with daggers and swords their the reason light class needs a buff cause they go with unfair weapons that one tap any class

Ive played since beta all the way to know with some breaks in between and just now lights are being a problem in the game
Like bro i dont wanna use flame thrower all the time to stop the light players using daggers and swords

You would think devs would look at the weapon and say yeah that needs a nerf nope they will continue to buff those melees cause light mains whine for buffs and they get it the only nerfs they get is either their support items or weapons no lights use at all
Be in mind i main heavy but i tend to switch up classes so i can try to have fun but i end up having a problem with lights cause again they use 1 tap weapons and one 2 tap which isnt too bad but it's definitely annoying
I just want variety with other weapons and abilities for all classes not just 1 class!
The nerf for medium demat was good we need more for heavy and light now weapon and ability wise
Just make it have variety!!!
yall are dumb melee is easy as shit to use i dont let them kill me im literally forced to use heavy flame
if you think melee light hard you need to put the fries in the bag and change classes

Dagger is maybe the worst weapon in the game... sword can't be that far behind, even in gold rank you barely see it. They make the user super vulnerable and have lots of counters that most weapons lack.

[cerulean horizon]

I experience freezes lasting up to 15 seconds in World Tour. Considering the success of Arc Raiders, you could invest in more and better quality servers. The current gaming experience is disastrous

[rose oyster]

Genuinely… how? Dagger is god awful in 99% of applications and Sword is mediocre at best due to Light having glass bones and paper skin. As someone who plays mostly Medium and occasionally Light (if the comp allows) if I die to a Melee Light I probably deserved it.
If you’re playing Heavy and need to crutch on one weapon to deal with Melee Light when there’s about 20 different ways RIGHT NOW Heavy can just erase a Light, you might need to look at your own gameplay and not the game’s balance.

[hollow badger]

nerf sr84, most unfair weapon in game

[rigid wind]

Make defib revive players at 1 hp, but apply a nullifier effect for about 10 seconds so you don't instantly die if you're revived in an open area

It would give you time to reload, regen health and run away from any sticky situations

[sonic arrow]

If you allow the melee weapon to get close to you of course you lose

The melee weapon should win in melee range, and having them close the gap is the hardest thing to do for melee as a whole

I’d love to see a floor is lava style game mode with a custom map and a hanging arena like heaven or else. Maybe less combat and more parkour/mechanic focused

[cerulean echo]

Hello Embark, Hope you are all doing well 🙂

I am slightly exaggerating here but I feel only 0.0025% of the population wants Goo canisters/grenades to instantiate like this. And the ones that do want it like this are probably trying to account for the direction by throwing against a wall—which should be the only scenario where it explodes in any direction other than horizontally in relation to the player. If they did want it to look like the picture('perpendicularly'), they would throw it, then revolve around the good wall so that theyre positioned like the photo.

[rigid merlin]

So, saw this on reddit but don't use it or have an account there so I'll clear here.
Embark is not postponing updates/content because of esports tournaments. Every game can run on a previous patch and is literally what 99% of esports games do to prevent this exact problem.
That way they can keep updating the game, and have absolutely no detriment to the pros playing on the esports side.
So while that is their excuse, it doesn't really make sense to me personally because again, they can all run on previous patches for tournaments and most games DO. If for whatever reason that isn't the case here, then maybe the devs should consider doing that moving forward? Because pushing back balance updates and other stuff because of esports while the game is already floundering isn't exactly the best idea.

[pliant lichen]

No, melee should not just '''win in melee range just because they do okay?!'''. There should be incentives and advantages to running them within certain terrain and teamcomps, sure. If it were just simplified down to 'get close and win' it's how you'd get new players running melee as crutches and reinforcing bad habits. Not good for the game.
The interaction is much more complex than that.
The comment you were replying to is on the topic of Light's weapons, and yes, sword is still stupid, they're not offbase. Being just an M1 simulator now instead of the joust movement tool it was obviously first designed to be.
Dash will be toned down to 2 charges next season anyway. We can all get a better grasp on how the systems collide by then.

You can’t be serious.
I hate saying skill issue, but if you’re letting a melee light kill you, yeah that’s on you. Dagger and sword are two of the worst weapons in the game right now. And they’re extremely difficult to use. And if you’re a heavy, they’re not even a one-tap lol sword is a 4-tap and dagger a 2 tap with heavy.
If you ignore a melee weapon and let it land on your shoulders, and still don’t shoot it, it’s not a balance issue, bud.

[slow crescent]

Hi embark! Im glad your game now in really good condition and i have some suggestions for you:

1)I want to return features with goo like goo ship or goo launch. Its anyway requires a lot of time to setup it for use, but adds much more fun and strategy in game.
2)Also want to see nukes with some rework, just as feature, not way to destroy everything. At least let me use chair as a C4 holder or something

I know, there is a lot of light player who have a Vietnam flashbacks with it and ppl who think that heavy is op, so, that my suggest of new spec for Light class:

Second Chance - after 20 heath remaining gives effect like nullifier and speed boost to escape fight. Then it will recharge like 60 seconds.

I hope you enjoy my suggestions!

[dense turtle]

On Syshorizon, the top atrium bar overlooking the street where the platform on powershift spawns with "WORK_SPACE_4" Text in front of it needs to be made destructible like the rest of the atrium roof. on powershift that is a toxic camp spot. This game prides itself on destruction and yet, that part is indestructible for no reason?

Nerf Evasive Dash to 2 dashes max and don't allow to dash through people. Stop ALL use of weapons while using Light specialisations.

Heavies cannot shoot their weapons while using shield, charge, goo gun or whinch claw.
Mediums cannot shoot their weapons while placing turret, healing or dematerializing.
Why can light use their weapons while dashing and grapplehooking??

Balance the class specialisation so no class can use their weapons while using it. Or allow every class to use their weapons.

Remove sniper from powershift.

[obtuse flume]

uuhhh lights can shoot while grappling only after their hook has landed cuz idk they have nothing in their hands same thign with dash it doesnt rrequire a seperate wepons they have their hand free do you know how absurd winch while shooting would be bruh

[echo panther]

please give us another iron sight option for revolver where this is removed like bfr it would help alot with accuracy and visibility

It would be great if the dialog window didn’t keep closing constantly on consoles. It’s almost impossible to type anything properly like this

[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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
The occasional turning of aim was used to maximize multi-hit.
If the problem is wild turning, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if someone spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. Of course, dmg must also be reverted.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, and only listen to nerf whiners who never even used it?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

[white anchor]

HARPOON FOR LIGHT CLASS
The fast long range projectile sticks to players and surfaces and blows up after a few milliseconds (shorter fuse then thermal bore) and the weapon should have built in scope for long range accuracy,it is more unique then giving light class a thumper.

The projectile is fast but maybe have more of an arc for balance.
Incendiary explosion should have sparks and have fire damage when it falls down on enemies cause at least u need skill and timing.
This isn't used for destruction like thermal bore just fire damage.

[runic sierra]

im begging pleaase do not have the nov 13 event be blast off, the LTMs are become SO, SO REPETITIVE, like it gets to a point where i will just straight up not even play it or get enjoyment from them at all.

Even the heaven or else event kinda sucked, it was really just worse heavy hitters but this time you have ball and a more clunky melee weapon.

Blast off was already repetitive as hell but now we get to do it... AGAIN !!!

Either have a unique mode or just do not have a LTM, youre diverting a marginal amount of time to make a worse version of a bad LTM that was comunally not liked that much, while you could devote that time to conceptualizing new LTMS

If this is how the LTM playlist thing is gonna work i genuinely think you would be better off not doing it at all because i dont wanna play heavy hitters and then immedaitely after get forced into heaven or else which is just a jankier version of it

[dusky seal]

i dont know if this is an unpopular opinion, but after today's announcement of another in-game limited time mode;

in my opinion, this amount of seasonal events is too much for the amount of commitment that's being asked of the player

either scale the events down, or make fewer ones that're more polished. i played every day of the halloween event and i havent played since the last day because i'm quite frankly exhausted from the obligation of it. watching that new reveal vid, and seeing it slated for 4 days from now? kinda fills me with a little dread. i dont want to burn out. i talked about this previously with the blast off event, and how the pacing felt exhausting there too. and sure enough, i burned out on the game for a period of time

i'll be honest too, if the dev time of that extra event could be put towards keeping the core gamemodes solid, i'd be over the moon. the pumpkin smash part of the halloween event was lovely but the ghoul rush mode was honestly a big letdown, and i'd rather dev time not be pulled away from the main game to overcompensate with LTM's, when we really want the core gamemodes to stay solid

[last saddle]

I get that you guys cant catch all the botters that plague the game, but jesus christ its just ridiculous right now. Also for the love of fucking jesus christ stop putting players that get reported into the same fucking games against those that fucking report them. Good fucking god this shit pisses me off and this is like the only game that doesnt seem to get it. It's just infuriating to face the same aimbot togglers over, and over, and over, and over, and over... Every other game seems to get the whole "hey they just reported them, perhaps our matchmaking shouldnt put them as their opponent 5 more times ina row..."

There’s a ton of really good game modes that have had their time but a lot of us want to play them some more here and there. The solution? LET US VOTE. Make a new “mixup” game mode where each player votes on what they want to play (or, each player gets a veto and the mode is chosen at random). This would do great things to BRING BACK BANK IT and other modes (cashball my beloved)

[leaden tangle]

Dear Embark developers, it's crucial to prioritize growing the player base now through new permanent modes that appeal to a casual audience, along with increased marketing efforts to address two issues this beloved game faces within its community.

1-First is the declining player base. I won't elaborate, but a small player base creates an overly polarized matchmaking system. You're either good or bad. So please, focus on this.

2-Matchmaking can only improve with a larger player base. Matching a Ruby team with a Silver team isn't going to be good for low-ELO players. Separating each rank into its own lobby is essential to avoid this polarized experience (this, of course, after increasing the number of players).

[rustic storm]

^ elo based matchmaking in casual modes is bad actually

[dusty igloo]

Sandstorm and moving platforms should just not be in ranked.
Nerf the bfr, its far too accurate, and has no damage drop off.

why does dual blades reflect ALWAYS just do chip damage when reflecting? it makes it genuinely useless because the bullets rarely ever actually hit the person so you just die slowly instead of reflecting like the weapon already has a garbage TTK longer than nearly every other weapon
also no its not a skill issue when the reflected bullets have so much spread they can miss a guy directly infront of you

[delicate marlin]

heavy revolver probably needs some sort of damage drop off. Rn its the best long range weapon in the game and you cant really fight him at range because of his health. If he gets below half he can just run and hide and you have to hard to commit to fight that heavy. Probably buff fire rate and give him an extra bullet in return for adding damage drop off. The weapon can be a longer range medium revolver with less DPS

or you can completely change the weapon and do something wacky where the alt fire is a fast firing fan attack. It can be kinda like the CS2 revolver

[wide creek]

I still firmly believe that Heavies should not have a lower TTK that mediums on lights. Regardless, the real reason for the rant was more against Winch, BFR, Flame and Lockbolt. SHAK is also a very OP weapon in my opinion. While heavy should not be weaker close range, the plethora of means that heavies can ruin lights within 5-20 meters is absurd. Winch is literal instant death, Lockbolt is also instant death and honestly almost worse than winch because it is ranged AND give your location AND completely destroys lights effectiveness by skill-less means (not to mention the gadget takes SO many shots to break). As you say BFR is bad, but imo it just shouldn't exist. One shot and suddenly a light is an insta-kill. Flame can kill a light by, and I'm not exaggerating, literally grazing us for a second, it has consistently killed me through walls and is LETHAL when used with lockbolt.

Ever since the healing meta, poking heavies has become severely more useless. I poke a heavy for 130 damage and hes with his team to heal in 2 seconds, and I've made no impact.

I don't have a 1v1 issue, no light should up close 1v1 a heavy and think they win every time. I have a problem with a class that can win a 1v1 on 1/3 health against the "highest DPS" class.

I am not some ragebaited new player, I have 900 hours in this game since season 1. I do actually know a few things.

@glacial geyser Lower weapon range would be a good thing, however your heavy comment is incorrect. I have played heavy, and while I may not play it as well as my main Light, I have a decent understanding of the class. The reality is that mid to high level heavy players overperform right now by a decently wide margin. Sorry, but when one or two things in the class are OP, and everyone uses them, then the class is OP, that's how it works.

[bright mason]

Idk if this is where I put this, but is it just me or ever since the recent updates my first match gets normal FPS (for me its 200-240fps) but every other match is almost unplayable.
My specs are

Ryzen 9 7000 series
16 gigs RAM
4060 laptop GPU

The frames fluctuate drastically from 200s to 70s in like a couple seconds. I'm ok with the lower frame rates, its just that the stutter makes it almost completely unusable. I know its not my internet as I tested it several times and hooked it up to ethernet, and it happens at a friend's house too. Idk if its just me. I was thinking of reinstalling Windows or something, but I'd rather know that its a temporary bug or something. I've also tried to configure settings, but nothing seems to work. If I lower settings so it goes down to around 70fps, then it will fluctuate from 70s to 30s. I have also come across a few other players in matches that report the same thing, but I dunno if that's bc of the same issue or if they have a bad connection

lovely game, though all the casuals left

[glacial geyser]

Strongly disagree.

You're saying you play better as Light, but think Heavy is more OP...
If the class was OP, everyone would play it, but that is just not the case.
I've had plenty of matches against Ruby players and I've seen maybe one Heavy (and I'm not actually certain he was Ruby).

They have limited mobility, a giant hit box, and the only real advantage is close range kill power. (Titan as the exception)

Light requires a higher skill floor, but it also has a higher skill ceiling.
Just because they can be countered in certain situations does not mean that heavy is OP because they win in those specific encounters.

Just for the sake of reference, I play Medium exclusively, and I still think that Heavy doesn't need a nerf (outside of the Titan).

:edit: looking at the part not addressed to me, it's also worth mentioning that you're discussing this issue like The Finals isn't a team based game. Heavy might have some useful gadgets for 1-on-1s, but that should never be a major concern.
I mean... Just look at Medium, they have a single gadget that instantly nullifies Lockbolt, Barricade, Heal Orb, and so many other things and it's still hugely underutilized.

[languid condor]

AN IDEA TO AVOID GRIEFING

Make it only possible to double your own cashout on WT and ranked. So if another team throws the cashbox at your cashout it won’t insert, and only your team can do that. So if you doubled it being in the second place and got griefed it’s only your own fault. Others wouldn’t be able to do that to your cashout.

If the problem is wild turning, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if someone spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. Of course, dmg must also be reverted.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, and only listen to nerf whiners who never even used it?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

Really don't want to believe the game is dying, but at the very least the ranked queue is. Been placed against rubies multiple days in a row now, while in the low 20k's. Don't mind playing against them while +35k, most players at that rank have strategy figured out, but it should really never happen with ~20k teams. The level of play/game knowledge for most gold players is just not there - especially considering it seems that <100 hours played is extremely common in gold these days. Been seeing lots of level 25 - 35 players lately in gold, that might be <50 hours played. Does not bode well.

[trail forum]

Abandon the World Tour point progression system, replace it with cash deposited to better match the leaderboards, with Emerald 1 being around $10M - $15M maybe (?) so its not such a time consuming grind to get emerald, and make the top 500 reward an Amethyst skin.

Day 24 of asking Embark to bring back bonus pages from past battle passes

[young jetty]

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈Add pride flags to the finals!🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈
I can’t speak for PC users but on console it is genuinely impossible to hit dash users consistently due to sensitivity. Particularly when they dash behind you, otherwise (depending on the situation) it’s a skill issue.
Dual blades are probably the worst melee in the game rn and definitely need a rebalancing (NOT a buff)
Add a juggling animation for the dual blades!
I’ve already talked about it but sword is actually ridiculous in its current state and desperately needs a nerf. Its combo with evasive dash is actually crazy especially against console players who literally can’t move their camera fast enough.
This is a huge one for me personally as a mainly melee user, a light with evasive dash COMPLETELY counters every single melee in the ENTIRE game shit is actually ridiculous. The only way to fight a dash light with a melee weapon is to use evasive dash as well which should not be the way it is. I’m not saying to nerf it into the ground but please add some kind of counter/option for melee users against dash lights
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 nerf sniper, I have always thought that it required a high skill ceiling for it to be good and I just kept running into “good” snipers when in actuality it’s just insanely OP.
Also add goblins to the finals

[rancid stirrup]

REEAAAALLY need to fix the process for accidental purchases in this game. I literally just went (5 min ago) to look at a Haunted Harvest reward (wraithwing) to zoom in on the details... 800 bucks gone, w/ no option to [un-buy], refund, nor sell back to the store. Happened to me twice, and really don't want the items. Would much prefer my multibucks back, than a cosmetic I'll never use, especially for a weapon I don't even enjoy. Let's fix the multibucks refund system.
Build CL979293-D0384D38-BK4162

[steady thunder]

Server connection seems to flip flop every day. Some days the game plays ingredibly smooth. But today was horrendous, couldn't play a single round without atrocious lag and stutter.

[whole cloak]

My takeaway from the Halloween event 🎃 the pumpkins were basically lootboxes and being forced to play daily was kind of annoying. It turned my favourite pastime activity into an obligation. Big Turnoff.

Even during Heaven or Else Event you could collect the cosmetics without playing daily but instead with grinding for them. I don't have the time to play daily, but when I play, its for many hours.

Please keep event quests grind-able, so that i can beat them within like 4-5 Sessions instead of being forced to log on daily.
Also as for my "lootbox" argument: I too prefered the Heaven or Else quests, because...

1. they actually were connected to the event game mode
2. I could see what I was working towards. With those Pumpkins, as with Lootboxes, you don't (exactly) know what you get and have to get lucky. Meh.
   Embark, y'all are better than Blizzard, EA and whatnot. You can find other ways to make players play your game regularly, no need for lootboxes and triggering FOMO. Please. It's cheap. It's a turn-off.

FIX YOUR GAME the balance is frozen cos of majors? cos somehow the best teams in the world can't adapt to change! golds playing vs ruby's seems fair! new anti cheat that makes the game freez,crash and sometimes disconnects u for no reason! optimazation went to shit with most people loosing from 20 to 40 fps since new updates! high ranks that know eachother are teaming so they can throw someone out of the game and win trade with each other(gl winning a 3v6 against em)! solo q is legit dead every match u get matched vs 3 stacks of pros or rubys meybe diamonds if matchmaking feels generus xD! cheaters boosting there friends to diamond or even better providing boosting services and even advertising these services in the in game chat! some ruby's are soft hacking (no recoild scripts or emulating a controller or using 3rd party crosshairs) I QUIT

Make CL40 more range of self damage

[broken lynx]

Increase rpg damage

[modern bramble]

okay i made a few posts on here complaining about the white supports underneath the spectator stands that make the arenas feel more claustrophobic and while i still stand by that i just realized... the stands are two-tiered because its the grand major. thats actually pretty cool. it kinda goes along with my earlier suggestions of making the stands more empty and the crowd reactions quieter for casual game modes like power shift but inversely. so while i hope to see it reverted once the grand major is over, it is admittedly a pretty cool detail.

[fierce skiff]

Light needs a major nerf, guns are too accurate do too much damage, for example the akimbos kill lights in 4 body shots and also the light pistol kills lights in 4 body shots??? Combared to deagles??, the headpeaks on roof are op, they shoot through roofs, barely able to see them, they have emp's smoke all throwables, teleport, mini c4 deadass whats the point of playing any other class

[mental delta]

corroded battery skin for glitch grenade

[hallow turret]

or just dont worry about the majors at all, the pros can adapt to balance changes

[sterile canopy]

Yeah, with 150hp. And this comparison is quite disingenuous as it’s ignoring the 2x headshot multiplier which makes the akimbos good, and that they do kill mediums and heavies in fewer shots.
Light guns have to be better than the guns of heavier classes because otherwise light sucks. Right now light is okay balance-wise. You want a light on your team for the most versatile team compositions, but they’re definitely not generally too strong.

[wary flax]

Nerf SH1900 reload speed, fire rate, spread and range, nerf SR-84 the same way as pike so it's a last resort to hipfire at close range as opposed to a legitimate playstyle, remove frontstab backstab exploit from Dagger, nerf SR-84 damage to 109 and increase hipfire bloom by 200%(it is unfair to Light), Nerf Throwing Knives speed or damage and add a cooldown or ammo count to it, make it so using Evasive Dash resets its cooldown (effectively negating Evasive Dash chains) or decrease its capacity to 2 and finally, remove Winch Claw from the game

Force crossplay when crossplay is on. You should NOT be in a crossplay off lobby if your setting is crossplay on.

Stop backlogging players into quick play matches that are within 10 seconds of a loss.

Add a feature to report entire Clubs.

Fix the bug that prevents console players from doing anything in the main menu.

Remove the 20 seconds respawn timer from reconnecting players.

Stop queing good players in losing teams. If I'm going doing literally everything 3 rounds in a row with 4 useless teammates, I should be matched into the winning team, not forced to try to 1v5 a round 3 times in a row.

FIX TYPING ON CONSOLE. You should NOT be interrupted by the game all the time.

Leaving before a round starts should NOT be considered a loss. Sorry if I don't want to play a round I know I'm going to lose because the game keeps matching me with LOSERS.

[inner ravine]

Fix pings!!! if I wanna ping an enemy it often pings something completely else, like a cashout/vault further away

[leaden tangle]

Embark, please fix the desync in game.

In vs, it's frustrating when you shoot the enemy letting him in one bar and you are full of hp, then he uses the Whinch Claw and stun me for a quick dead

[fossil cairn]

take a look at desyncs in arc and see that Finals is perfect by comparison. 🤣

[limber sapphire]

There NEEDS to be a punishment for people who leave the match on head2head or quick cash right before a potential win.

[proven crown]

To me the biggest issue is how bad the spawns are for vaults and stations. Stations of spawning too close together and vaults are spawning too far away from stations. Teams who wipe first also aren't punished because they get to wait at a station with the best positions. Embark needs to punish the team that wipe first in the round more. Longer timer will be easiest here because it's clear that there's not enough spawn points and that the logic just doesn't make sense for a game this complicated, but further away from stations would help a ton. 3rd partying and spawn logic seems to genuinely be at an all time low. The only maps where spawns seem to make sense is Seoul and Nozomi.

As for the solution to griefing, honestly spawns would solve a lot, but I think that if you want to double, you should have to insert the box manually like terminal attack (some kind of cash out override mechanic) because it's way too easy to just dash into a fight and throw the box in considering how badly you can screw over a team who actually played quite well in that one fell swoop.

Perhaps most importantly, as much as I love this game - the state of the servers and how unresponsive the mechanics/gadgets/specs feel when it comes to all the server-side movement issues on higher ping - it's hard to take seriously anymore. Clearly the server tick rate is an issue, but it just seems like it's never going to be right, and I'm also always going to be put into these games where it feels like running through syrup and/or rubber banding like crazy.

[tulip rose]

And yet another game where i lose 3k+ points because of Embark random errors where they prevent you from connecting to game, this issue hasnt been fixed since season 1, and its been here forever. The game disconnects you, after you connect back to the game, almost a minute passed, so you recconect at 8th minute, win all 3 games, 1st place in the finals and instead of getting 1.8k points, game punishes you for 1 minute discconect wich is their fault to start with, and than they move you from first to last place, stripping you away 1.5k points instead of gaining points wich results in you losing a total of 3k points. This happened to me this season like 6-7 times and it is totaly gamebreaking bug where their system cannot recheck if you ever come back to the game or how long you were off game. Oh yes I forgot and they ban you also for this 😄 This is just tip of the iceberg of their broken ranked system, there is so much bugs not even worth mentioning because they are not working on anything except "pay to look like trans moron degenerate in our game".

[iron herald]

Triple stacking teams in World Tour / Ranked should not be a thing anymore (keep that nonsense in the quick play lobbies). I am sick and tired of a triple light team using there one-tap potential weapons with their three use evasive dashes (I would also petition this needs to moved down to only 2, but that's for a different rant), wiping out full team in a span of 5 - 10 seconds -WHEN THEY HAVE FULL HEALTH MIND YOU-, this needs to stop.

[dense marlin]

Can yall give us the option to decrease deadzone further on controller on console?

[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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
The occasional turning of aim was used to maximize multi-hit.
If the problem is wild turning, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if someone spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. Of course, dmg must also be reverted.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?

Can you guys stop re-spamming the same damned thing everyday because there are some of us who also have feedback as well that would like to also be possibly seen. Or maybe not because of all of the repeated feedbacks from the same people, also others I just happened to reply to yours. / @lean bluff If they haven't seen it they will now so plz, be quiet already respectfully you've already said it plenty of times! Both of you guys already fr just keep spamming the same damned suggestion omg Embark won't bend to your will so spamming it isn't helping. I've came in here and said I want bank it back but not everyday I don't repeat and copy and paste the same thing either. I've came in here maybe one a month and said I want bank it back and it's been months and nothing so I will come back but I don't need to spam my shit like you 2. Good luck tho. I would say spamming actually makes people ignore your suggestions more but what do I know maybe not but I know it just makes things messy in here so when they do read these suggestions they're gonna possibly miss some that are next to yours they're simply ignoring yours because they've already seen those previous ones you've sent...

This game is screwed because Embark created a pay to play game when you didn’t have the players to spare on this game, which is free to play. With the drop of BF6 not helping, either.

So now, when I queue as a Gold 3, I’m getting stuck in pro lobbies with players from ALL, SSG, NTMR, etc.

You’re gonna justify/tell me that these pro players should be in Gold 3 lobbies???? Embark screwed up.

I’m about to uninstall. I’m gonna keep trying for a bit longer, but this is no longer fun.

please rework winch and give heavy some more lockbolt adjacent items instead

being disallowed from going inside a building because you otherwise risk being stunned, ripped away from your team, right into where the heavy can easily beam you (or into a full enemy team) and gets you killed does not feel like a proper engagement

lockbolt can be avoided, has counterplay if you do get hit, and can still be outplayed even if you cant remove it, its much more interactive while still being really useful

having a few more options like lockbolt would allow heavies to choose what suits them best, make fights feel more interactive, and enable winch to be reworked into something less frustrating, perhaps utility based?

Would love a gadget on medium that lets you nullify yourself. If that could be too strong even a specialization could be sick. Could call it debug agent and its the contestant jabbing themselves with a taser looking device. Two charges 5 second self nullify on each 45 second recharge per. Very defensive item for medium gives some counter-play to winch and melee in general/is a specialization slot but it’s effectively a get out of jail free card if you are caught out of position.

1- can we please reduce the amount of smoke that CL-40 grenades produce? Every time we are in a closed space and being attacked by a CL-40, I almost stop being able to aim and shoot beacuse of the dark smoke.

2- Problem with the upper boddy paty of the Ghoul skin from the halloween event (the black one with a quarter of a cape): any wrist item equipped, while the upper body is equipped, do not show. Changing the upper body skin, makes the wrist item visible.

[wide creek]

No, remove Winch and nerf lockbolt. Lockbolt can honestly be worse than winch in many situations. Heavies, the class with 350 health, should not be able to manufacture that ideal scenario just by clicking. No light has ever be able to locate and break lockbolt before getting obliterated because they're trapped in the open and the lockbolt takes an ridiculous number of shots to break.

What counterplay do you even mean? If I get lockbolted as a light, I die 9/10 times, maybe 8/10 if im right with my team. It rips away lights entire advantage, which is the WHOLE REASON we have 150 health.

There are kids on Roblox that can make a more smooth game experience then what you have done embark.

All I and many other is to be nice and support as we like the game itself but the quality of the product is at a loss for words right now.

[plain jacinth]

Ranked mode is heavily affected by smurfs boosting. One improvement could be restricting ranked party access(duos/trios) to accounts with at least 300 hours of playtime. Accounts under 300 are free to play solo. Additionally, a separate solo queue would help create a more authentic and balanced competitive experience.

Perhaps give a reward for staying in top 500 in World Tour? I get it’s not necessarily a “skilled” mode to earn a leaderboard spot. But you’re keeping the top 500 within THOUSANDS of other players. Which I’d think should be rewarded for. Even if it’s just a background or something.

[cold bolt]

• game servers are at their worst, there is noticeable global latency for all actions
• game balancing should not have been frozen for the major. If you wanted the best of both worlds you should've either isolated the intended esports patch to a separate gamemode or a separate server

• skin distribution makes no sense, why does FCAR have 62 skins while other things have single digits

Target will be paralyzed, and vulnerable to damage. They cannot shoot, use action or items, or gadgets. And moving slowly, But can be touched or be detected by something such as Land mines, Claymore, Jumppad or Turret, can get damaged from any weapons.

The enemy's character will look like being convulsions, electric shock, glitched and errors, just like being deta hacked by the device

This short duration create a punish window and a short, skill-testing window for the user or their team. Allowing  to secure a knockout on a low-health target, or stop an enemy from escaping. The short time makes it less of the frustration of a long, unavoidable stun lock. but still a meaningful punish.

2. Nullify(2.5 seconds)

After being stunned, Target can move freely. They cannot shoot, use items, gadgets, or interact with objectives. They are impervious to damage.

The enemy's character will be transparent or translucent, tinged hologram. while recovering from being nullified by self system rebooting

Create a tactical disruption. This phase prevents the target from contributing to the fight,removing enemy from play Temporarily, Giving the victim a chance to escape and reposition if they survive the first phase, allowing your team to reset, secure a revive, or focus on other enemies. The invulnerability prevents it from being a pure kill-tool and emphasizes its team utility. rewarding the attacking team for coordination while giving the victim clear counterplay.

Hey Embark, just want to say you did a great job with this game. Obviously there are improvements to be made. But, the amount of people complaining just goes to show how much people actually love the game, and want it to get to that perfect spot.
We hope you’ll have great discretion in the upcoming balance changes!
That being said, add a medieval map to the finals! It’s been a year!

[waxen thicket]

Either add headshot damage to KS23 or remove it's inaccuracy, it's already inferior to BFR Titan in basically all viable ways. KS23's wallbreaking is not a worthwhile opportunity cost to BFR's hitscan reliability and range in all situations.

Make fire damage stack upto 2 times, once every second. That would actually make Flamethrower, Cerberus and Pyro Grenade actually worthy picks instead of just low tier spams with no lasting viability in higher level games.

Also make everyone slowed in gas and add a 20 damage explosion to gas burns, because gas is too weak to make any meaningful gameplay effects during actual matches.

I can't even tell if people are cheating or if the servers are so bad they just get to play the game a full second ahead of me. I had a destruction desync happen where I was strafing in a gunfight and then couldn't move any further left. About nearly a full second later on my screen someone destroyed something above me with a red barrel and I died to the damage of the barrel explosion. Gun fights up close using the double barrel are painful. Whatever tick rate the servers are using disgustingly bad. You are ruining the game with your greed. People buy plenty of cosmetics and battlepasses to pay for server costs.

I am doing my daily post to fix matchmaking/smurfing. This is single handedly breaking the ranked experience. The inconsistency of each game is becoming extremely grating. I've kept track, and I've had multiple 5th place knockouts over my last few play sessions. One was -849 rank, and another was -149. Both for coming in 5th. The one where I lost 149 was a more fair lobby. Why? Because there were less smurfs on fake accounts in that game. Why even tell us the RS spread/who is in the game? Most of the accounts in gold/low plat are diamonds and rubies on fake or bought accounts, level 30 with less than 100 wins who get quadruple your RS gain, and lose almost nothing for losing, while the game says that you're playing against "bad players", so when you inevitably get stomped, you lose 1000+ for a 5th/6th place knockout. These people abusing the matchmaker have everything to gain and nothing to lose, while people playing fair have nothing to gain and everything to lose. YOU ABSOLUTELY SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO QUEUE WITH PEOPLE SIGNIFICANTLY OUT OF YOUR RANK RANGE. I witnessed two teams with 2 ruby players each and a third ruby smurf on a fresh account, queueing into gold games to boost the smurf. That smurf gets an insane amount of RS for winning. We lose an insane amount because we seed 1-2. Firstly, put a stop to this, turn off the ability to queue with anyone below lets say, 2k+ outside of your RS. I am so god damn tired of losing 1000+ to ruby smurfs who shouldn't even be in my lobby because they're using fake accounts to abuse the matchmaker, either remove dynamic RS for wins and losses, or make smurfing bannable. The ranked in this game is totally unplayable as a result of not doing either of these. Sincerely, a ranked veteran since beta. FIX YOUR RANKED SYSTEM. NOW.

I think tick rate is possibly suffering from server performance at least in part. The other part of the time, IDK why it's bad unless SBMM deciding you need to play a server that's across the states of where you live.

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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back and attack. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
The occasional turning of aim was used to maximize multi-hit.
If the problem is wild turning, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if someone spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. Of course, dmg must also be reverted.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, and only listen to nerf whiners who never even used it?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

[wraith orchid]

PPLLLLLLSSSSS

balance the game around high rank players.

why?

BECAUSE LOW RANK/CASUAL PLAYERS PLAY THE GAME SUBOPTIMALLY.

fuck people having no fun bc they dont want to actively learn to get better. this is already a complex game where you need to think and be creative to get better results. it has enough to offer that is FUN. we dont need „casual fun“ weapon balancing

make all weapons playable (nerf the op ones)

accept that you need to drastically change firerates if you want to keep the hp pools AND achive balance.

The servers are so bad right now. I can't play ranked anymore. Every time I try to revive a teammate, I get canceled at least one or two times. Half the times I steal, it stops stealing. I get rubberbanded back into people's shots A LOT. It happens every 10-15 seconds. This is borderline unplayable, and I'm losing too many games to nothing but bad server performance. It's getting really annoying.

[glacial geyser]

This person is a troll from a rival development company that wants The Finals to die.

Casual players are the backbone of every online game. Pro players can adapt, casual players cannot. If you don't care about them, you don't care about the health of the game.
A game can still be balanced without catering to the desires of the best players.

The only excuse I can think of for their message is that it was a poor attempt at sarcasm...

[topaz pier]

when you add it RUSSIAN FLAG!!!!????

[steady mauve]

Can something please be done about teammates that leave or don’t play which costs me points in ranked?!!!!

[deft topaz]

This person is repeatedly spamming this feedback channel with the same feedback. I hope the developers are wise enough to totally ignore them. Without casual players, this game will die. Full stop.

Instead, I think the number one fix the development team should consider (and I've seen it raised a few times before) is to reduce effective range of all weapons except for the sniper rifle, by massively increasing damage fall off at range. This will solve the number one biggest problem the game has right now. When teams are beaming you from across the map with lazer-focused aim, on weapons that should not be able to hit you so accurately from so far away - even if the player's aim is legitimately good, new players (and a few veteran players too) will instantly assume they are cheating, even if they are not. Not only does this long range meta make the game incredibly un-fun at times, it is also so off-putting to more casual players, who are so vital to the games survival, in addition to a healthy competitive scene. (Without the player base going up, a healthy competitive scene cannot be achieved either, and even if it is achieved, no one will have an interest to follow it)

I see no reason for any weapon but a sniper rifle to do significant damage from half way across a map.

This, to me, is what the developers should focus on.

[quick coyote]

[zinc wolf]

The Cerberus is pretty underpowered currently and its afterburn does almost no damage so after TGM is done it would be cool to see the fire get buffed up a little bit to maybe turn it into more of a poke weapon where you peek to apply a debuff, dancing around corners to get value out of every second of flame. It would probably be a bit overtuned if they made it one shot lights or anything, although at the same time if it required hitting every pellet to do so, and they still got a couple seconds to live before the fire finishes them off then it could be fine

[austere cloak]

reading all this stuff is bumming me out man.. Im starting to think that its true. I love this game and im glad ARC is going well for you guys, but please keep sending love for this game. I understand it's hard to release a second game + continue producing content for the next 10 years. Let alone keep the finals game running excellently, all while organizing an in-person major. But the finals is about adapting, and it needs those consistent updates so new players can play the game in a good state.

Getting new players into this game almost makes me regret it sometimes. They end up loving the concept, the gameplay, and almost everything about it. But balancing issues and cheaters are the two main issues that keep negatively occurring with feedback from new players. Something needs to be done, mostly about the cheaters for now.

I am hoping things will ramp up again after the Major. I'm going to assume it makes some sort of sense, not to change everything right before the major. I am very excited for it

[delicate notch]

I love the game and I am having fun playing against almost all weapons, no matter which weapon I am currently holding. But there are 2 exceptions. Throwing Knives are just a pain, not a huge one but still significant. I get that they are fun to play, but to play against, not always. Idk how to fix that, maybe not have it have unlimited ammo? idk why it does anyway, same for bow.
My main issue is however the flamethrower, every time I see a player holding that thing on the bracket screen, I sigh. Not bc it is op, not at all. But because it is just a pain to fight. You always get winched and then you can barely escape before you are BBQ. If you are a Light, you are often just dead, except if you have dash oc. Here I am at a complete loss what to change. I can just say I don't like the flamethrower and I always hope I don't have enemies playing that thing. I am neither claiming to know better or play better than anyone, just voicing my opinion. I am hopeful that you might consider changing these weapons in a way that they are fun to use for the players that enjoy them and for the ppl playing against them as well. Because all friends that play this game have the same opinion, on both weapons that is.

[wraith orchid]

@glacial geyser @deft topaz these guys wouldnt even notice the balance changes. they dont even know what is meant with „casual fun“ balancing and the counterpart, otherwise they wouldnt complain. what i mean by that is:

-casual balancing is simply introducing weapons that are so easy to play AND strong at the same time, that worse (casual) players have much higher chance of killing good players with worse weapons more even if they shouldnt be able to. AND/OR lowering the ttk so much that worse (casual) players kill good players more often (see COD, they even admitted to this, look where it stands now).

What this does:

• leads to a higher using rate of less weapons and vice versa in casual and specifically in high ranks, bc most people just want to frag with least amount of effort.

-this leads to boring metas/ less versatility in combat.

What it does to casuals:

-they have an easier time to frag against other casuals and sometimes better players which they normally dont even see that often bc of sbmm

-they dont get encouraged to better themselves, always craiving for another high without any effort

-! good players with offmeta weapons will tend to „stomp casual lobbies“ instead of playing ranked or wt, bc they enjoy offmeta weapons, are way better than casuals but cant compete with players on meta weapons at the same skilllevel.

equals=

casual players get unhappy by getting stomped by already offmeta weapons and still go in here to beg for nerfs.

this game is made for competitive, and you can still have a fun time in casual modes even with PROPER balancing.

battlefield is manly made for casual fun, short ttks, huge maps, fast respawns, many chances, little impact on win/loose as a single player.

this game stands out for its variety of weapons, but you keep killing it.
you guys said it yourself, every weapon should feel different. and they do which is exceptionally great.

ok so i cant go more into detail with the explanation rn. heads up

[broken rover]

Now when Arc Riders is massive success can you focus on The finals for a little moment?

I love the game, i love destruction and gunplay, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Make the Ranked and World Tour rewarding more fair!!! I just stopped playing these tournament modes because of how bad is amount of rewards we get...

In ranked we spend 20 minutes to win +1000 while spending 8 minutes to lose 1000 in first round. The maximum amount of ranked points we lose has to be 300 maximum at any place. But this is in the lobbys with the same or close enough ranks. The game can just send you to the lobby with Diamond ranks while you are the gold 4 or 3. In that cases we have to lose even less points like -40 for the 7-8 place in tournament. Change it couse the game doesn't have many players

Increase the amount of points we receive in World Tour for every place from 1-6

i want you devs to give +4 points for 5-6 place, 10 for 3-4 instead of 6, 20 for second place instead of 14 and +30 for the first place instead of 25

Make rewarding in tournament modes MORE FAIR. This game modes require A LOT OF TIME, to get to final round we spend 30 MINUTES this is TOO LONG and all we get is only 14 POITNS. The points we get didn't change since season 3, it's just too frustrating playing these modes, the playerbase will not grow, so treasure the remaining playercount and make it that the time we spend in the game is worth it and fun.

Also you HAVE TO add !!!Safe Game!!!

In ranked if you lose 1 match, the game will not take the points from you but if you lose the second match after, the game'll take the points. ADD THE SAFE GAME, Fortnite has it, Rematch has it, why can't The Finals have it too?

RESPECT OUR TIME EMBARK

[hollow birch]

You can literally deactivate this feedback channel, because when there is nothing feedback it would not matter. 90% of the players in this channel write, that some weapons are op, other ones break the game and other weapons are literally completely unbalaced. If you, Embark Team, read this channel, can you please make some changes? The maps, the concept, the skins, all is good, but the weapons and classes are completely unbalanced. No game mode is playable. If you make some updates, like the Halloween one, can you please read this channel before and change some weapons? THANKS

[rose oyster]

Balancing around “pro play” is how you kill a game because you alienate anyone who isn’t already good at the game or not willing to dump hours upon hours into researching and playing the game because you are simultaneously raising the skill floor and ceiling.
This means your average player is getting stomped even more than right now by people exclusively running what’s meta.
It’s also how you get stale metas that make the game boring to play.

Honestly, I have trusted this game since Season 1. But actually these mistakes like smurfs, no new content, no attention to keeping new players prioritizing competitive, no QoL to console and no marketing are being the beginning of the end.

This is my favorite game, my depression moment was beated by THE FINALS. I'm more responsable, more disciplinated and focused on being competitive. Also Idk if it's prudent to spend more money in game cosmetics.

Until now, Season 8 is the worst season (Yeah, I has more fun with Season 3)

My suggestion is that they change spin attack on spear to bayonet charge that has the same dmg properties as charge and slam(u aren't able to destroy structures tho) and another one is to add respawn beacon as a medium gadget that you will have the choice to spawn on.

I can’t speak for PC users but on console it is genuinely impossible to hit dash users consistently due to sensitivity. Particularly when they dash behind you, otherwise (depending on the situation) it’s a skill issue.
Dual blades are probably the worst melee in the game rn and definitely need a rebalancing (NOT a buff)
Add a juggling animation for the dual blades!
I’ve already talked about it but sword is actually ridiculous in its current state and desperately needs a nerf. Its combo with evasive dash is actually crazy especially against console players who literally can’t move their camera fast enough.
This is a huge one for me personally as a mainly melee user, a light with evasive dash COMPLETELY counters every single melee in the ENTIRE game shit is actually ridiculous. The only way to fight a dash light with a melee weapon is to use evasive dash as well which should not be the way it is. I’m not saying to nerf it into the ground but please add some kind of counter/option for melee users against dash lights
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 nerf sniper, I have always thought that it required a high skill ceiling for it to be good and I just kept running into “good” snipers when in actuality it’s just insanely OP.
Also add goblins to the finals

If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

They really need to take immediate and decisive action regarding the anticheat system or implement live match monitoring. Every single day, I encounter players using cheats, aimlock and flawless instant tracking. The situation has become unacceptable at this point..

[timber surge]

stop making people lose RS with AFK teammates, it's really annoying

things that need a nerrf without a doubt : bfr titan and cl40

Give seperate top 500 rewards to WT players

[white anchor]

HARPOON FOR LIGHT CLASS
The fast long range projectile sticks to players and surfaces and blows up after a few milliseconds (shorter fuse then thermal bore) and the weapon should have built in scope for long range accuracy,it is more unique then giving light class a thumper.

The projectile is fast but maybe have more of an arc for balance.
Incendiary explosion should have sparks and have fire damage when it falls down on enemies cause at least u need skill and timing.
This isn't used for destruction like thermal bore just fire damage.

[waxen thicket]

You guys should buff KS23 by either:

1. Make it innately accurate just like other shotguns since it's already unreliable enough with the projectile bullets and lack of headshot bonus damage, or

2. Add a headshot multiplier to the bullets because with the innate inaccuracy and projectile behaviour landing headshots is already hard enough

You can either make the gun better at hipfire or headshot, your choice. Either way, it would still be outshined by the Deagles and the Titan in their respective ways, so you wouldn't have to worry about overpowered weapons.

[polar yacht]

theirs no way embark can please the finals players -_- everyone complains if anything its better to have a hard reset on the game itself

[fair bolt]

I think Embark should make abandoning count as a game lost. Because people are abandoning a lot just because someone humiliated them or are better at aiming than their hipfire and because of that they try to find easy matches to grow their ego and have more wins than losses.

[wraith orchid]

bro didnt understand anything i said xd.

every weapon being about equally strong means there is no meta.

BECAUSE YOU CAN DOMINATE WITH EVERY WEAPON BY JUST BEING BETTER.

[lean bluff]

FIX YOUR GAME the balance is frozen cos of majors? cos somehow the best teams in the world can't adapt to change! golds playing vs ruby's seems fair! new anti cheat that makes the game freez,crash and sometimes disconnects u for no reason! optimazation went to shit with most people loosing from 20 to 40 fps since new updates! high ranks that know eachother are teaming so they can throw someone out of the game (gl winning a 3v6 against em)! solo q is legit dead every match u get matched vs 3 stacks of pros or rubys meybe diamonds if matchmaking feels generus xD! cheaters boosting there friends to diamond or even better providing boosting services! some ruby's are soft hacking (no recoild scripts or emulating a controller or using 3rd party crosshairs) I QUIT

[keen karma]

• SOLO QUEUE RANKED SHOULD ONLY MATCH AGAINST SOLO QUEUES INSTEAD OF 3 STACK UNEMPLOYED RUBIES STREAMING TO THEIR 2 VIEWERS. HOW IN THE WORLD IS THAT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD? RUBIES WILL 90% PARTY UP WITH OTHER RUBIES TO MAINTAIN STATUS WHILE SOLO QUEUE GOLD/PLATS GET FARMED, THAT IS THE MOST TOXIC RANK SYSTEM I'VE SEEN AND GREAT WAY TO LOSE NEWER PLAYERS
• NERF 93R - IT'S CLEARLY THE MOST OVERPOWERED LIGHT WEAPON, I PICK IT UP FOR FUN AND DROP A 40 BOMB
• FIX RANKED GRIEFING - RUBIES ALWAYS PICK THE WORST TEAM TO QUALIFY IN THE SECOND ROUND. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING 2 CASHOUTS IN THE BEGINNING ONLY FOR YOU TO GET LAST PLACE? WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MAYBE LAST WAVE OF VAULTS SHOULD BE 1 INSTEAD OF 2? I'M SURE THE DEVS CAN THINK OF SOMETHING BETTER!!!!!
• WHY WOULD YOU DELAY BALANCE UPDATES FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYER BASE BECAUSE OF ESPORTS? ESPORTS PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADAPT. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THE WINNER IS HML WITH 93R, DASH, HEAL, FAMAS, WINCH, SHAK. SO PREDICTABLE AND BORING!!!!!
• REVERT SMOKE NERFS, SMOKE IS LITERALLY USELESS NOW, FEELS LIKE 3 SECS AND ITS GONE. LOOK AT YOUR PICK RATE DATA, I'M SURE IT'S ALMOST ZERO AFTER THE NERF
• FIRST ROUND RANK LOSS SHOULD NEVER BE AN EGREGIOUS LOSS OF PTS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A LOSS CAP OR TEMP FORGIVENESS THAT WON'T END UP INFLATING RANK! PLEASE THINK OF SOMETHING!!

[hybrid silo]

This game will go down as one of the biggest wasted potentials in gaming history. You had a very promising start at launch, even though there were server issues, nukes, stun gun, recon senses etc. you guys were on it and you REMOVED these broken things or nerfed them.

Then S3 came and all of a sudden you guys just shat the bed. You introduced Kyoto, a map that literally 90% of the playerbase hates and you just refuse to take it out and rework it, winch claw (aka the biggest mistake in the game) was added and you managed to change everything about it except the thing that’s most problematic.

You introduced a poke meta in S4 which everyone hated and now it’s back and surprise surprise it’s hated again.

You “balance ” heavy so that they absolutely demolish every class in close quarters in a game where 85% of meaningful fights are in close quarters but now they can also just as easily deal a shit ton of damage at range as well and have 2 specs that takes all control away from enemies(goo gun, winch).

You design light in a way that they are supposed to play like rats to get most value out of the class.

Server and performance issues keep getting worse and worse with every update, automatic weapons are so weak that non auto weapons make light work of them in cqc as well(my med revolver is level 9 and yes I have used it and almost all semi auto guns against rubies as well) and balance is just dogshit all around.

Ranked is entirely luck based if you solo queue because you have to pray that you get teammates that don’t just dive into every fight head first even though they have 38k RS. If you are a 3 stack that understands the game you are guaranteed diamond. Also you don’t make head2head ranked even though it would make 10x more sense.

Tbh if this game was just a cash grab from the start then hats off to you guys you conned a lot of people.

[wise vector]

a throwback limited time mode would be fun to experience the orginal S1 balacing with things like nukes, broken SA, 26 damage fcar, recon senses, and v9s and xp lights.

[small burrow]

The disconnects in this game have driven me away from the game. My ranked games always get trashed from this buggy game disconnecting people and nothing is done to save rank when its the games fault.

[flint bridge]

I think this game has a lot of potential, and it’s frustrating to see so few players. What it really needs is more promotion to attract more players, just like other live service games do.

I'd provide statistics but you guys know damn well why the gun is a problem already

Fix controller dead zone to zero pls

[dreamy owl]

for once, fix the audio, i never listen the fuckis lights, they just , i hate this game

[steady thunder]

Another day, another request to prioritise fixing the server issues. Balancing and matchmaking are serious problems as well, but the one thing that absolutely everyone would love to see is a stable connection.

[reef reef]

Hey Embark, first of all i want to thank you for everything you did to the game, it is in the most balanced state since the launch, i just have a problem that i want you to fix please because it is a bit annoying now, the problem is that there's a bug when someone leaves from practice range they get stuck in the animation of entering the lobby, and it keeps the game frozen and the screen frozen in the animation of entering the lobby, then i can't do anything can't even alt f4 won't work the only way is to restart the pc, this bug has been here since the last 3 seasons and it's never fixed till this day, and not only me but my friends get the same bug, it doesn't happen even single time you leave from practice range but it happens once every 5 times or something like that, and i have a very good specs pc, updated drivers and updated windows, and trust me, it's an issue from the game not my pc, my friends also get this bug, i hope you fix this bug soon as it is the only bug i get in this game besides the zip line shake which im sure you will fix soon but please fix this crash, thank you for your efforts Embark team 🤍

[zinc depot]

the skill based matchmaking in this game is absolutely awfull

[leaden tangle]

The reduced playerbase is destroying this game. Matchmaking is too unfair when you are in solo-Q against 3 stacks (or 5 stacks if quick matches). Youe team has nothing to do in front of a coordinated team. You comunicate or you could play with your teammates, but 3v5 or 2v3 is always a mistake unless you start a group with our friends (my friends leaved this game because there's no new content)

[wide isle]

Guys, the in-game chat interruptions are very stressful... we don't just use the chat to make fun of each other, but also to call our teammates! I play on PlayStation, I don't know how it is on other platforms, but it's been frustrating... I've only been playing for a month, I'm new to the community, but I've already seen that this isn't well-received.

[echo panther]

please give us another iron sight option for revolver where this is removed like bfr it would help alot with accuracy and visibility

[lilac moth]

I do not like kyoto. Please consider removing it. It is just not a fun map in anyway

[obtuse scarab]

fix your game instead of making more $40 bundles. servers keep getting worse every day, balance is a total joke, half of the abilities in the game dont work as intended, and the matchmaking/RS system is abysmal. this game is the opposite of esports ready

[untold willow]

Remove mesh juggle penalty

[daring remnant]

the server connection isnt consistent anymore. This might be the worst its ever been and I know a thing or two because I've been been playing since season 2 and maxxed out every battle pass when they came out

matchmaking is fucking one-sided garbage

[south venture]

There should be a skin for the healing emitter that's a Magic 8-ball and inspecting it while carrying it would give you a random fortune

[alpine summit]

They absolutely need some kind of stick drift compensation for controllers in this game, it is way to easy to get stick drift I have to constantly manipulate my settings to minimize my dead zone options. The finals is becoming unplayable on controller everyday, yet I still log on and try my best to play and ignore it. I’m starting to realize Mouse and keyboard is more playable on the finals because the top 500 leaderboard has way more mouse and keyboard players with a sprinkle of controller players across the boards

[gritty flint]

I just played a game in deathmatch mode today and then dropped out halfway. Immediately after, my account was permanently banned. I want to ask what happened. I have not engaged in any cheating behavior and as an old player who has been playing fair games for about 1500 hours, it was the first time that you mistakenly banned me. Then, I asked you about the situation just now. The voice changer I used in the background has affected the fairness of the game. I have sent you a screenshot of the Rac voice changer software I used. Please give me a satisfactory answer as soon as possible and check my account. The Chinese server is about to release and I am about to rank. What's the situation? Have you made a mistake? I have been playing for so long. Can you please stop causing trouble]

[glacial geyser]

What you are requesting in your first message and what you are arguing about in your second aren't even aligned.

Casual players would not enjoy this "casual fun" concept that you're complaining about - as you mentioned, casual players would just get stomped by skilled players using these weapons.

However, it's important to note that no one is asking for these types of weapons... So I'm confused why you're complaining about them.

And, more importantly, adding them would not be balancing in favour of casual players or pro players...

Asking the Devs to ignore causal players for the sake of balance is not only the complete wrong decision, it has nothing to do with the issue you're trying to complain about.

[sonic spoke]

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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees and weapons can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls. Of course, dmg must also be reverted. Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

[low garnet]

Hello,
I’ve noticed a few issues and inaccuracies in the Russian translation of your game. As a native speaker, I’d like to kindly offer my help in improving it. I would be happy to provide a corrected and more natural translation completely free of charge.
I really enjoy your project and appreciate the work your team has put into it. My goal is simply to make the experience even better for Russian speaking players. Please let me know if you’re open to this I’d gladly prepare examples or corrections for review.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
Best regards,

[obsidian zenith]

If you are unsatisfied with the game, leave a negative review on steam. It has to be at least somewhat meaningful.

[eager hatch]

I’ve played this game since beta, hands down one of my favourite games in years but recently things have got so bad! Constant server issues, massive lag, bugs, lack of response from embark but the final straw was logging on yesterday to receive a ban threat and my name being removed. Made a ticket with embark and got told my name is “upsetting” have they even played this game and seen half the names? Not sure how it’s upsetting or how it’s taken them 1450 hours to suddenly get upset by it, even been in touch with them using the same name multiple times with no issue. Closed the case instantly with no chance to respond. Won’t let me change it for a month. Not sure A. How It’s upsetting B. How you allowed it if it’s against fine guideline (considering it’s embark ID from your website) C. Give a long term player who’s supported this game massively since before release the option to change or dispute it.
I think you may have just killed off finals & raiders for me
More of a rant than anything as I know you won’t do anything about as you won’t even fix the actual issues in the game or bugs people report. Clearly all focus is now on raiders and finals will be left in the dust

[orchid holly]

don’t abandon us. give arc raiders toggle ads so i can play.

we appreciate you guys but some hope & care is needed.

Where is the love for Trentila? Last season BP, events, drops had cosmetics for the sponsors. Now it's Ospuze in both event and drops and still no love for Trentila.

[lime lark]

Id rather have bug fixes than new content and balance changes. I think it's great they are finally addressing game performance.

[pliant lichen]

If they finally fixed the heal orb not working bug as they say then this is a very good thing. However the whole voice moderation thing is super out of touch. The sentiment that the game already wraps players in cotton wool isn't a new thing.
It did take literal months to be able to type 'lmao' in chat afterall.
You're right though. The 'look we're an esports' arc has dragged on a bit, hasn't it.
Still no word of no-sprint and no-shoot bug being resolved.
Just do other things until S9 drops, my homie.
It's what I'm doing.

For the love of christ give us an option to change the volume of the crowd. I'm convinced 90% of people's gripes with the audio in this game would be solved by removing all the useless sound clutter

[plush parcel]

After this major please for the love of everything make a second build for pro players to play on so the main game can still receive balance changes. The game is so stale right now since everyone is running the same thing since nothing has been buffed/nerfed.

i am happy to see Blast off back, but why Bernal again, I like the map but try this mode on a new man could have been cool, idk, Monaco church ? Kyoto Temple ?...

Suggestion when team is wiped while a third party is closing in on the active cashout: give the wiped team a vote whether to prefer spawning in on the same cashout, instead of across the map to a random, perhaps over cashout.

Hey there, I just learned that PS4 version of THE FINALS is being shut down on season 10. As a Trophy Hunter and fan of your game, I beg you to make trophies earned from a PlayStation version, then automatically unlock from the other version upon logging in, possible before PS4 version shuts down. As example, I would unlock Deep Pocket trophy for earning $50 million cash on PS5 version, then I should automatically unlock the same trophy on the PS4 version, either by logging in or earning any more cash in-match since I already reached the criteria. I desperately want the PS4 platinum trophy alongside PS5 platinum trophy.

I do not want to grind all the trophies over again, with the pressure of 4 months of intensive play before the shutdown and be incapable to earn trophies and, ultimately, PS4 platinum trophy. I play THE FINALS since launch, with regular short daily sessions to complete my daily contracts (and seasonal and event contracts in-between), and I am near $50 million cash on my account to earn Deep Pocket trophy and the precious platinum trophy. I am just logically incapable to redo all the trophies but this time for PS4 version, and earn its platinum trophy, within 5 months.

So please, deploy a patch making it possible. Please acknowledge my dedication to earn all achievements, and other trophy hunters, and make the trophy progress carry over between PlayStation versions, before PS4 version shuts down.

Thank you and have a nice day, Embark team. ❤️

[signal umbra]

eh, i think its more of a causal mode. Ranked might just take or not take players from the casual pool

Get rid of voice chat monitoring - (and whatever you do, dont use AI monitoring)

make speech free again.

If someone doesn't like their teammate, then they can mute, report, or just leave voice.
Quit treating your players like victims that need their hands held over words.

[unreal blaze]

Imagine releasing the most hated Limited-Time Mode (LTM), "Blast Off," at a time when your daily player count has decreased by half since the launch of ARC Raiders.

Instead of promoting a weapon that has no business being in a shooter, perhaps you should take a cue from your own ARC Raider team and significantly nerf the grenade launcher when used against players. While it may not be overpowered in the current meta, it’s incredibly frustrating to see a player with no kills suddenly leading their team because they switched to the cheap CL-40 grenade launcher.

[brave dagger]

Been thinking about the cerb and the state its in right now. Its pretty rough and youve shared that your data supports that. It probably deservers a buff.

I like the idea of the fire breath shotgun, and thats probably where the buff should be. In a way it could also open up for a rebalance around fire as a whole. Id say pyro mines and flamethrower are in good spots (altough somewhat weak on higher skill levels). Pyro nades and cerberus defo are too weak, altough pyro nades are still used in casual games allot.

Theres a few popular suggestions that I would support too. One of them being having fire have 'intensity stacks'. Lets say fire stacks 3 (percentages need to be tweaked ofcourse: ex. 1x 2x 3x or 1x 1.5x 2x etc) times depending on how long you sit in it or how many pellets of cerberus you took in a certain time. This could be the case for other fire based damage sources too. Maybe in the form of a rebalance?

Other suggestions have fire reduce healing. This suits the dive bomb gameplay style of both cerb and flamethrower. But i think the stacking fire is more elegant actually.

[crystal storm]

Wait... PS4 support retirement??? Are you guys for real??? Please tell me this doesn't mean what I think it means

-update-
Read the patch notes, at least they're giving notice in advance and giving us a few more seasons. Hopefully I'll have a new gen console by then (or the steam machine)

[delicate notch]

The current event is terrible, I have not played to first time you brought this but I am baffled that you brought it back. The Halloween one was very fun, the heaven or else got old very fast and it felt like a drag to complete contracts. But this one? I don't even feel like bothering to play it, it's just plain awful. I have to admit I am very disappointed.

Don't moderate voice chat please. The text chat censorship is bad enough, this is straight-up disastrous. I don't know who's forcing all these poorly-concieved sanitization measures, but you seriously aren't protecting anyone. If you ran a poll right now, I guarantee the vast majority of your players would say that if they don't like what someone says, they can just turn off chat or maybe, if it really comes to it, report them. Making what I assume is some kind of AI do it as well doesn't help anybody.

[broken rover]

Now when Arc Riders is massive success can you focus on The finals for a little moment?

I love the game, i love destruction and gunplay, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Make the Ranked and World Tour rewarding more fair!!! I just stopped playing these tournament modes because of how bad is amount of rewards we get...

In ranked we spend 20 minutes to win +1000 while spending 8 minutes to lose 1000 in first round. The maximum amount of ranked points we lose has to be 300 maximum at any place. But this is in the lobbys with the same or close enough ranks. The game can just send you to the lobby with Diamond ranks while you are the gold 4 or 3. In that cases we have to lose even less points like -40 for the 7-8 place in tournament. Change it couse the game doesn't have many players

Increase the amount of points we receive in World Tour for every place from 1-6

i want you devs to give +4 points for 5-6 place, 10 for 3-4 instead of 6, 20 for second place instead of 14 and +30 for the first place instead of 25

Make rewarding in tournament modes MORE FAIR. This game modes require A LOT OF TIME, to get to final round we spend 30 MINUTES this is TOO LONG and all we get is only 14 POITNS. The points we get didn't change since season 3, it's just too frustrating playing these modes, the playerbase will not grow, so treasure the remaining playercount and make it that the time we spend in the game is worth it and fun.

Also you HAVE TO add !!!Safe Game!!!

In ranked if you lose 1 match, the game will not take the points from you but if you lose the second match after, the game'll take the points. ADD THE SAFE GAME, Fortnite has it, Rematch has it, why can't The Finals have it too?

RESPECT OUR TIME EMBARK

[sterile canopy]

If you are to reduce the severity of losses you HAVE to also reduce the rewards from winning in proportion, otherwise you pretty much wreck the entire system. The losing-faster-than-you-win might make the system less emotionally rewarding but it is both fair and a consequence of the tournament structure, so criticise that if you don't like it.

[pulsar jay]

dont do ai moderation it was already awful false ban disaster in r6

[next tundra]

Still lagging in World Tour mode. Is there an information/ open issue about it somewhere? Solving ongoing?

[blissful rover]

Im here just to tell you Embark you are amazing, thank you so much for this game - Im 100 hours deep into arc raiders but the love that I have for the finals is unmatched , I hope you manage to keep this running as much as possible , Im already around 600$ in skins just to say thank you every season again

God bless you The Finals team you are amazing

Best pvp shooter whatever you wanna call it I have ever played.

I hope the amazing people behind this game are recognized and got their position locked at Embark so sad to see that this game does not explode as it should , you are the best guys thank you so much.

Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees and weapons can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls. Of course, dmg must also be reverted. Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

came back for event and i have around 10 fps less then before xD so this is the so called "optimazation update" this season i went from 70 stable fps on almost lowest setting to 40 fps on lowest setting WTF well done embark!

[slow crescent]

120% agree

Also Im glad your game now in really good condition and i have some suggestions for you:

1)I want to return features with goo like goo ship or goo launch. Its anyway requires a lot of time to setup it for use, but adds much more fun and strategy in game.
2)Also want to see nukes with some rework, just as feature, not way to destroy everything. At least let me use chair as a C4 holder or something

I know, there is a lot of light player who have a Vietnam flashbacks with it and ppl who think that heavy is op, so, that my suggest of new spec for Light class:

Second Chance - after 20 heath remaining gives effect like nullifier and speed boost to escape fight. Then it will recharge like 60 seconds.

I hope you enjoy my suggestions!

Is there or will there ever be a chat echo fix for Steam Deck chatting with Xbox? I always get this harsh echo when I chat with certain people in the game and or have to close and open chat just to be able to talk. I have messed with all my settings but I can't figure out this bug.

[solemn fulcrum]

TDM stats are strange. So for example if you get 25 kills in 3 rounds you get S rating, but if you get 17 in 2 rounds you only get A. That doesn't make any sense

Stuttering and input lag are worse than ever!

[cinder elm]

tell me how is this fair matchmaking? enemies had over 100 level. i get that level may not matter but these are new people playing against people that havent seen light of day since game came out°

@mild bolt i know that and it doesn't make it any better. there should be some kind of way to make matchmaking not completely random. im fine with new players here and there, but not "1 skilled player with 4 new players vs 4 skilled players with 1 new player" and I've seen this pattern so many times now, that makes me rip my eyes out of frustration.

[mild bolt]

Only ranked has sbmm other mods don't have it

[dark niche]

+1.. lack of sbmm in unranked modes has always been weird to me

[warm sigil]

Blast off is back, i am happy. Thank you embark

[leaden tangle]

Block the ranked mode only to lvl +75 accounts. This way will be consistent for better matchmaking (There's much player above level 75 who still don't know how to play as a team or don't know specific characteristics about a fight)
Only dedicated player's will access to Ranks, also you can prevent the Smurf wave and is not too hard to unlock since the lvl balance from 1 to 500 (unfortunately). Also, get a block lobby to ruby, diamond, and platinum exclusively; Bronce is for the worst lobbies and Silver can fight more fairly against Gold, so this three ranks could stay in their lobby.

There's a big difference between Gold and Platinum rank, so this will be less frustrating to low ELOS, and more fair in matchmaking.

[chilly niche]

The new event is a pretty big disapointment. I mean really guys? A 90% recycled event? Couldn't we have at least had a different map? I mean there's literally a map in the game with an entire OSPUZE themed area and you dont think that would of been a better backdrop for a OSPUZE themed event than Bernal?

[mental idol]

World Tour is completely unplayable rn. Servers are so laggy everyone i know are just avoiding it entirely

[gilded marten]

Agreed I’m glad I’m not the only one having the issue

[charred sandal]

servers are the worst they've ever been on console after the update, complete stuttering constantly every match of wt. actually unplayable competitively

[sterile canopy]

Er, they already were? Now they’re just automating it

Thanks for doing Ospuze things aagain, f u for bringing back this LTM though and making it the only way to get it though.

[tiny arch]

[quick coyote]

performance improvements did indeed improve performance for me, massive fps bump, went from inconsistent 90's to a constant 110 to 120 on my pc.
thanks alot embark, im sure lots more were helped with this update aswell.

[pliant tulip]

the new event is covered with cheaters already, like last time with blast off event.

the servers are laggy so all the times are off, can't really move, destruction is now causing so much lag.

and in general i think this LTM form should be changed to a bigger map and 5v5.

3v3 on a small too close map is just unfun. well in general this mode event mode is bad.

[limber oriole]

Really don't like the "big brother" chat monitoring.
Really don't care for the new scoreboard either. I guess people couldn't do the math on their own?
Never posted here before, but love the game. Just don't care for some changes.

[obsidian zenith]

The new patch has gained me about 20% more FPS, albeit I force closed GameDVR (xbox/windows game bar function). A good step in the right direction, but still not Season 1 performance, I used to run 120 FPS on highest settings with max Raytracing. I had 90-120 FPS on everything lowest and RT off depending on map (looking at kyoto) before 8.9 and around 120-140 after. Now, for the rest of the changes, I will not touch the game with a 6 foot stick until we have a good player count and/or you fix your networking. I have had this issue since day 1, but it seems I am no longer alone with this. Switch to connection based servers: what happens in the game is based on the better connection, meaning that the server collects information from players, and the latest gets used. Overwatch 2 uses this. This would fix corner kills by default. Other problem I have is that the e-sports teams are not W warriors. If they were, they wouldn't deserve to play in the mayor. You could have given us 2 balance patches, 1 of 8.3 and one for 8.6. I think the pros have enough time to familiarize themselves with the meta in the 6 weeks that is the time between 8.6 and 8.12, when the major takes place.

[empty needle]

make harder penalties for quitting

[lethal fulcrum]

hi i raised a ticket on your website but had no responses

[pale meteor]

feedback for the new mode honestly kinda sucks imo
mostly due to the fact that seemingly every game is a stomp for one team with it never coming close to a even tug of war like the other LTM's. one team is always full of the most tryhard sweatiest people who can always land their shots while the other team is full of casuals who just got off work and wanted to try that new mode out but immediately get stomped

[covert dagger]

• SOLO QUEUE RANKED SHOULD ONLY MATCH AGAINST SOLO QUEUES INSTEAD OF 3 STACK UNEMPLOYED RUBIES STREAMING TO THEIR 2 VIEWERS. HOW IN THE WORLD IS THAT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD? RUBIES WILL 90% PARTY UP WITH OTHER RUBIES TO MAINTAIN STATUS WHILE SOLO QUEUE GOLD/PLATS GET FARMED, THAT IS THE MOST TOXIC RANK SYSTEM I'VE SEEN AND GREAT WAY TO LOSE NEWER PLAYERS
• NERF 93R - IT'S CLEARLY THE MOST OVERPOWERED LIGHT WEAPON, I PICK IT UP FOR FUN AND DROP A 40 BOMB
• FIX RANKED GRIEFING - RUBIES ALWAYS PICK THE WORST TEAM TO QUALIFY IN THE SECOND ROUND. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING 2 CASHOUTS IN THE BEGINNING ONLY FOR YOU TO GET LAST PLACE? WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MAYBE LAST WAVE OF VAULTS SHOULD BE 1 INSTEAD OF 2? I'M SURE THE DEVS CAN THINK OF SOMETHING BETTER!!!!!
• WHY WOULD YOU DELAY BALANCE UPDATES FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYER BASE BECAUSE OF ESPORTS? ESPORTS PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADAPT. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THE WINNER IS HML WITH 93R, DASH, HEAL, FAMAS, WINCH, SHAK. SO PREDICTABLE AND BORING!!!!!
• REVERT SMOKE NERFS, SMOKE IS LITERALLY USELESS NOW, FEELS LIKE 3 SECS AND ITS GONE. LOOK AT YOUR PICK RATE DATA, I'M SURE IT'S ALMOST ZERO AFTER THE NERF
• FIRST ROUND RANK LOSS SHOULD NEVER BE AN EGREGIOUS LOSS OF PTS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A LOSS CAP OR TEMP FORGIVENESS THAT WON'T END UP INFLATING RANK! PLEASE THINK OF SOMETHING!!

[unreal blaze]

Blast Off is literally thee worst mode there is. The amount of players AFK farming it because they can't stand playing it is frustrating.

[shy smelt]

please for the love of god do SOMETHING about the WINCH CLAW SPAM that is in every match i play. it is genuinely so not fun to fight against. the one thing i can never cope with is some guy with a giant hammer that just has to press a two-button combo to win any engagement instantly. I miss when heavy was actually fun back in S1 and not this crutch class that new players use to plow through world tour ranks when they don't have a grip on the game. I know for a fact that I am not the only person who sees there is something wrong here but every time it gets brought up the Heavy Defense Squad™ shows up to claim that winch claw is easy to counter (it's not) and name a bunch of potential counters that literally don't work because you are silenced while the claw is moving and for a short period after. if not that, then because of something else (the jump pad does not push players that are already standing on it when it's placed, for example). increase the cooldown when used on players, maybe get rid of grabbing players at all, do something. we already had this problem with the rocket launcher being used too often as a DPS item and not a utility. why should the winch claw get special preference?

---

shield changes won't work. light has no self-shield options like medium, and the lowest health, this will do nothing. ED is too hit-or-miss to act as a counter in place of this, and even then, players of any class shouldn't be locked into one playstyle to avoid getting cheesed. this was the thought process behind the elemental canisters. you need to balance for every class.
vvvv

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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

im not gonna sugar coat it yall need to either stop making ltms or spend longer making them because this one is also hot garbage, 3 shits in a row, like genuinely do you have to make them all so fucking infuriating and unfun to play? random bullshit that makes you lose is never fucking fun

[harsh whale]

hi there! just had a few suggestions

winch should not hit through shields, that gives a reason to run mesh and makes heavy fights rock paper scissors. If nothing else it would add variety/ a reason to use something other than winch. it won't solve the core problems but I really want a reason to run mesh again 😭

we need something to be done about third partying like damn. maybe on teamwipe health regen starts and you revive at double speed or something along those lines. it's brutal rn

I would love to see a level lock or something to ranked, like maybe 50

speaking of ranked there should be some sort of forgiveness to stop spiraling downwards. like perhaps if we lose 2000 rs the next -500 rs is forgiven / after 2 or 3 matches of - rs the next game you won't lose any and if you win it resets it protection.

this last one is a major issue I dont see anyone ever talk about. PINGING SYSTEM. it is not well done and constantly leads to mispings. ie wanting to ping someone holding the vault through a wall and randomly pinging the wall (on a side tangent why does the box not reveal the person all of the time? it should be riskier to run with the box) , trying to ping an enemies location when you dont have sight on them and the cashout station being pinged. I do not want to be able to ping the cashout station, I want to bring up a wheel that says "Lets go to vault 2" "attack cashout A " if you ping a cashout and want to change what the ping was? hold down ping on it and change it. I really want to let my teamates know where someone is, not ping "attack cashout B!" that is 200 m away. apex's ping system is really good iirc.

this is more of a please add one, I want see exactly what bullets hit when, how many were heads, and who hit me when. not to bring up apex again but they have a nice screen that pops up after death and you guys could really take stuff from that.

thanks for reading!

Everyday is the same lot of guys (me too i know lol) speaking about how unfaire matchmaking his and how stressful this meta make the player base with 700hp+ heavy. But all we have from embark is a mid seasin patch with 3 Line and zéro change and a quality of Life change ? Just to let healing meta run the major ? Like, guys the major is the absolute expression of THE FINALS with top movement and strategic player and what you do is give them a must have heal meta and range weapon to be competitive ? At this point you the game suffer or am I just stupid and don’t understand something. Like you run the major when the game is in his worst state and say * alright folks no change until major*.

[warm sigil]

ok i love the game, but being forced out for a "dissallowed game file modification" when ive done absolutely none of that, and the only other programs i have running are radeon relive and discord? very annoying. its happened twice to me in like a month. idk if its the new anti cheat or what but it sucks lmao

[small shadow]

embark your game so suck cant ban cheater

[grizzled osprey]

I’m officially GIVING UP on the game, WT and RT are unplayable, no one’s knows how to fix the lagging issue. I’m done until next season, hoping the game will work again.

[hybrid silo]

Personally I also hate it because for me every match was extremely boring. One team was just standing on a platform while the other one jumped at them and the team that was just standing won 95% of the time obviously but it was unique at least so it has that going for it. This was probably the first unique ltm as well because up to that it was just cashout or power shift with locked loadouts which were just painfully lazy so they really have to put in more effort.

There needs to be some god-damn matchmaking in casual modes for this game. Playing TDM and I have had nothing but groupstack upon groupstack upon groupstack on the opposite team. I am solo-queueing and it feels like every turbosweat came out of the woodwork today to infest a mode. Let the turbosweat groupstacks play against turbosweat groupstacks. There needs to be some kind of control so it keeps parity for teams so even as a solo queue player it isn't just me and a bunch of randoms vs that twitch streamer and his friends gathering together to ruin fun for everyone else.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

[smoky gust]

winch is very unhealthy imo
getting stunned, pulled right into someones crosshair and beamed to death is not interactive and does not feel good
im not sure if there is a way to rework combat winch into something that isnt frustrating

i hope that something will be done to make it more engaging, give it complete utility usage rather than combat, or just get replaced with different, more interactive options like lockbolt

[dapper rune]

don't keep destroying the monetisation with every single update, 1150 for a 2 page pass be so fr

[sacred acorn]

The 2 page BP for TGM doesn't pose a good value in my eyes. I think a good chunk of the TGM bundles being sold in the store could've easily been in the pass and hell have 1 partner team item (exclusive or not) and that would flesh it out better. kinda hard to justify the price to what you're getting. just a bit of a missed opportunity and a bit off the mark with the TGM BP. I look forward to the TGM but there need to be more work done in terms of monetization in relation to the esports side of the Finals. the partner bundles I understand but the BP I don't see where the value is at.

[cerulean lynx]

I just started playing this game. and what the actual fuck. movement cool. gun play in general pretty nice (WHEN TALKING ABOUT MEDIUM AND LIGHT CLASS)

but HOLY MOLY the heavy class, more specificly the winch. JUST COMPELTELY RUINS THIS GAME. i dont want to play anymore. I can hoenstly say as someone trying this game for the first time after playing arc raiders, that your player count is so low because of this class and the rank point system.

the winch DOESNT EVEN HAVE TO HIT YOU. ITS HIT BOX AND HIT FRAME ARE INSANE. AND THEN THE HEAVY WEAPONS DO THE MOST DAMGE OUT OF ANY WEAPONS IN TEH FCKIN GAME. EVEN THOUGH THE CLASS HAS 350 HP AND SHIELDS!!! worse than peak overwatch road hog

arc raiders and the finals devs can not be the same. becuase these mfs WERE SMOKING STRAIGHT METH when making this class. absolute 0 iq design.

AND from the looks of it. the devs r fckin heavy mains or something. because everyone is complaining about it. BUT NOTHIGN EVERY HAPPENS.

Can we remove the riot shield nerf, the problem was always the server not displaying the hitbox of the shield in the first place.
Now the weapon sometimes can't block because on your view you thought you actually blocked but not for the server side

[digital yoke]

KS-23 content starving

Every week, tons of cool cosmetics, epic items, legendary items, and mythical items are added to the game, sometimes exclusively for the same favorites. But why can't the other guns in the game get some content too? The last time there was a good legendary for KS-23 was 7 months ago. Well, the skin stamping factory for meta drops them without delay. KS-23 is literally the most starved weapon in the game in terms of content.
It's literally a repeat of the situation with the difference in content between Kiriko and Venture from OW2.
Please at least give us something new, and make sure it doesn't look like some eye-gouging toxic png vomit made for free by a freelancer in 5 minutes and sold for 800 freaking coins.

Another cash grab FOMO bundle, and not a single improvement to the game in sight. Thought company’s would learn from Cod that this method is not effective at all in the long run. I hope ppl don’t support these tactics, so they actually change. Actually so sad what they are doing to this game

[untold hazel]

tbh i quitted the game i joined back and im loving it

[gleaming spade]

I feel like since Embark is putting more focus into esports, the game has slowed down in player count. Could also be because of Arc Raiders and BF6, but this games is so different gameplay wise that new releases shouldn't have an affect. It's hard not to notice how competitive the game has gotten and how small the player count is. It is definetly not growing with new players. I'm kinda worried about the state of the game going forward.

Dear embark
Some of us cant affoard our beloved ospuze BUT i know how to fix this.
Make a ltm within the game where whoever gets the most amount of points/kills or smth gets a pack of 24 ospuze.
This would make a extremely fun ltm with a prize that we all want.

Sincerely, Tdh Okip

[harsh moss]

why the fuck would they put xp54 et deagle for skins in the tgm25 pack, like don't they see people play sa12 and 93r or arn ??

it makes the pack unbuyable for ppl who play meta guns as anyone should do in a competitive game, and it's a esport pack like its designed to support the highest level of the game still the weapons are off lmao

game concept is so good yet its so unbalanced and skins are so off, the game is designed to be an esport game yet it feels like a casual bad cod game, no wonder why the playerbase is declining

It woud be very cool if ranked could be one 3v3 or at most 2 round cashout. It's very grindy right now, and a ranked mode should get you to your skill level quicker. A 3v3 would be a lot easier to matchmake too

[odd ibex]

💥Auto cross for HEAVY class,it fits right in with the pike and lh equivalent for heavy and it’s a PROJECTILE .

idk man the 93r could use another microbuff, maybe like another 2m range or like idk 1 or 2 more damage per shot, 5 bursts to kill heavy is way to much it should be 3 at 90 meters right.

All joke but fr if tou want light to have a good ranged weapon you put a DMR on the class, i dont want season 2 back but like its not great situation rn

Add Bonus Pages to Legacy Battle Passes. Can't remove paid content man

[ebon vault]

Let friends look at eachothers statistics page, feels super weird to have a game like this not have that. More club features would be nice too like allowing them to join your lobby without needing an invite or being on friends list, more emblems/colors and club description. Also a message of the day(just don't make it be erased on daily reset pls) sorta thing would be nice. Like something that pops up in members chat anytime they login so I can wish club members a good day and some such :)

[weak ivy]

matching against esports pros when i'm in plat over and over again is not fun. i think its time to uninstall the finals. ill check back in a year and see if this game can break 10k players by then.

[royal pecan]

devs keep printing money. Heres another way to get more: add the "Smith and Methson" inspired gun

[feral fossil]

Nerf sword M1 to 70 dmg. Buff sword M2 to 125 dmg. Remove sword multihit. Remove aimlock.

This will raise the skill ceiling to a place where skill expression is possible at all. Sword won't dominate lower lobbies as much because people won't be spamming M1, and sword will be usable in ranked past platinum. This will also completely fix the "360 spinning tech" because there will be no reason to spin if you can only hit one target.

Right now, sword is only viable in plat or below. Any player who is good will instakill sword because of the aimlock. Almost any sidestep will make the sword miss their lunge.

If a weapon is op in lower lobbies, and absolutely useless in higher elo, it is not balanced.

[wooden atlas]

Yes this 👆 M1 spam is NOT the way to go. Sword has always been more about the lunge, so let lunge have its skill expression back

Hey Embark devs, hope you doing good, i have a big problem that happened with the new patch 8.9, the problem is that the performance in game is tanked! Literally like please roll back whatever changes you made that caused these issues, my cpu usage is reaching now 100% it used to be 80 max before patch 8.9, the game was stable, whatever you did caused big problems to the performance, fps drops, btw my pc specs are good imagine the other people with worse specs and worse pcs, like let's not focus on a small majority of people who play this game cuz this is gonna kill the game, i play this game since the open beta and today is the first day I'm gonna stop playing until i have enough money to upgrade my pc, most people don't have high end pcs Embark, if you added a new anti cheat or whatever, for me it is easier to play against cheaters with a stable game performance than playing against no cheaters with 100 percent cpu usage and drops, cheaters would still find a way, i don't even think this new anti cheat will stop more cheaters than before, it just tanked my game performance that's what i saw, i gave up on the ruby grind this season just because of the drops and 100% cpu usage , please add an anti cheat system that do not max the cpu usage instead of this, or revert back easy anti cheat it was stable and better for the performance, i love this game and i don't want it to die, adding useless things to the patches that just tanks the game performance instead of focusing on what is actually important to fix is not right, voice reporting for example, who needs this? It is only gonna make the performance worse and gonna add more jobs on the devs like investigating who trash talked to the other, and this is not a kids game in the first place, like instead of investigating who griefed and who teamed up in ranked lobbies... Im upset of patch 8.9 and i stopped playing this game just because of the bad performance and i hope you fix this soon please...

[warped axle]

Damn you guys are really milking this game like crazy the ultimate battle pass cant buy with in game currency the item shop with its insanely high prices and now a second esports battle pass for almost the same price as the regular one dispite only having 2 pages its time to reel back the microtransactions before you completely ruin the game with them

[dull trench]

I'm happy and sad at the same time that i was proven right again that the ultimate battlepass was only a taste of how they will monetize the game. I warned people this is the beginnings of mobile game greed but i got called a mad man, yet look at me now being proven right with the 16 tiers battlepass that they added. People in here will still defend this and it will get even worse. Can't wait for my next post here about something even worse being added into the game.

Am happy i stopped supporting the game after they added the ultimate battle pass.

P.s. like i said first reply just proved my point. There will be always whales defending the game as "optional" where the only progress is cosmetics. Yet the game is still bleading people and embark is trying to squeez as much money as they can from a slowly sinking ship. Remember when the 13 and 14 page cosmetics in base pass were cool and animated, i remember. Now you need to pay extra for them in the ultimate pass

[gritty jetty]

You realize the majors pass has a full outfit and weapon skins right? You realize the average store bundle is more than that right? You realize the ultimate pass is completely optional right?

• SOLO QUEUE RANKED SHOULD ONLY MATCH AGAINST SOLO QUEUES INSTEAD OF 3 STACK UNEMPLOYED RUBIES STREAMING TO THEIR 2 VIEWERS. HOW IN THE WORLD IS THAT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD? RUBIES WILL 90% PARTY UP WITH OTHER RUBIES TO MAINTAIN STATUS WHILE SOLO QUEUE GOLD/PLATS GET FARMED, THAT IS THE MOST TOXIC RANK SYSTEM I'VE SEEN AND GREAT WAY TO LOSE NEWER PLAYERS
• NERF 93R - IT'S CLEARLY THE MOST OVERPOWERED LIGHT WEAPON, I PICK IT UP FOR FUN AND DROP A 40 BOMB
• FIX RANKED GRIEFING - RUBIES ALWAYS PICK THE WORST TEAM TO QUALIFY IN THE SECOND ROUND. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING 2 CASHOUTS IN THE BEGINNING ONLY FOR YOU TO GET LAST PLACE? WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MAYBE LAST WAVE OF VAULTS SHOULD BE 1 INSTEAD OF 2? I'M SURE THE DEVS CAN THINK OF SOMETHING BETTER!!!!!
• WHY WOULD YOU DELAY BALANCE UPDATES FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYER BASE BECAUSE OF ESPORTS? ESPORTS PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADAPT. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THE WINNER IS HML WITH 93R, DASH, HEAL, FAMAS, WINCH, SHAK. SO PREDICTABLE AND BORING!!!!!
• REVERT SMOKE NERFS, SMOKE IS LITERALLY USELESS NOW, FEELS LIKE 3 SECS AND ITS GONE. LOOK AT YOUR PICK RATE DATA, I'M SURE IT'S ALMOST ZERO AFTER THE NERF

Hi Embark, just wanted to let you know the PS4 can handle much more complex games then the finals just fine, like COD, Marvel Rivals heck even Fortnite. Don't blame that system for your inability to fix your own servers now that the issue is really mainstream all of a sudden the PS4 can't handle it anymore? Wrong it's been this game this entire time but you will continue denying that to make yourself feel better and blame things on "outdated" devices. When in reality the issues happen on new consoles example PS5 and PC just thought I'd let you know it's your own game and it's dying now your killing off the ps4 fan base good luck to your player base.

what about shop unlockables that are more Play-To-Win instead of using actuall currency and add like a different system to get a different currency kindof like Halo Infinite's Exchange

[vale carbon]

im gonna be honest i dont understand the show token bullshit at all, if i buy a battlepass i should be unable to unlock it like normal, not be restricted by soime arbitrary points that dont say you how to get them, it seems really predatory to force a timesink AFTER paying for it. remove show tokens.

also the matchmaking is really good guys i love being put against ruby sweats in casual, really makes me want to keep playing the game

Also also idfk what you guys did but this latest update is causing horrible latency and lag on PC, i cant even get above 40-50fps with constant stuttering and lag on all low settings when i used to run med-high with 70+fps and no stuttering or lag before

[karmic sable]

Matchmaking is BS, balance is BS, bugs have multiplied, game is falling apart after leaving to do e-sports stuff & launch Arc & treating finals like casuals don't exist for a season and a half, players are leaving in mass.... BUT THANK GOD YOU ADDED ANOTHER BATTLE PASS THAT WE CAN BUY! that's exactly what players want right now. If anyone knows how to read a room.. it's embark ffs. I'm starting to think embark has had a successful experiment with the finals & are now ready to kill it & move on.

[turbid mortar]

A two page battlepass that costs more than a regular battle pass and is only available for less than a month to prey on people's FOMO is scummy no matter how you look at it. I truly do love this game's gameplay and customization, but recent events have been feeling extremely greedy.

[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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees and weapons can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls. Of course, dmg must also be reverted. Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

Griefing needs to be fixed. It’s not fun being griefed out every game for being the second best team. On top of that we’re always getting griefed by ruby stacks

[pale ridge]

Apex quality match making. Turrets should be programmed by respawn. I prefer pilot sentry over the turret now. Was close to being balance in season 3 (not just the turret but everything). The downfall of the bigger companies is when they threw balancing out the window and prioritized the opinions of esports streamers who complain about everything over the community itself. Also how tf has voice chat gotten to the state it’s in now? It’s practically unusable. Updated season = worse voice chat. New Event Update! = worsening voice chat. It’s wild. It’s more of an effort to play now than an enjoyment, thank you so much!

It feels like most of the top players have stopped trying to play their main accounts and just trying to farm lower rank tournaments for clips or ego

Hello Embark, could you please backport the HUD centering you now have in Arc Raiders to The Finals, I play at 21:9 but would enjoy having my HUD to clamped to a 16:9 ratio, hell i'll even take 4:3, but even the current system in Arc would really go a long way to make playing in ultrawide more enjoyable.

[pliant lichen]

This is legitimately one of the cringest things I've seen added to a game I like, btw. Not just the concept of trying to bubble wrap a game that is obviously for a mature (enough) target audience.
(It took literal months for us to be able to type 'lmao' in chat after the out of touched forced text censorship, still not rolled back)
But now whenever new players go to pick up the game; they have to dig through a hidden settings tab just to be able to hear or talk to other players ingame..?
So instead of your most passionate playerbase being able to guide and maybe even help teach new players the ropes, now this will just not be able to candidly happen anymore.
The new player experience is already HYSTERICALLY bad, even for an FPS, and you implement something like this..?
Don't even get me started that you don't show player levels until the end of games.
How am I supposed to know if a teammate needs more help than I would otherwise be giving usually?
If you think this is helping the game move forward, you're wrong.
These are steps backwards.
Would this be worth pointing out as a problem if it was implemented properly; and so that it is not a hidden setting that will prove to be detrimental for new players?
No I wouldn't.
Look into changing the way this is currently handled, because it is not good enough.

This is a team game.

Every weapon, when in close range, can naturally move behind the enemy or slide behind and look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees and weapons can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls. Of course, dmg must also be reverted. Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

Yo it is soooo insane that The Finals has some of the BEST snipers in any FPS game I have played in 20 years. Every single other mil-sim must have given these Magicians the best possible experience Sniping. I have never been one tapped (as a light) or shot perfectly EVERY SINGLE TIME by more sinpers in any game ever. They are so baller!! I bet they get mad ladies and are super fun at parties.
Oh wait, that is just Denuvo and whatever AntiBrain and BS non-existent anti cheat

You should take your own advice and get your head out of your ass, just check their own discord thread labeled high ping packet loss and server stability and see how many people have submitted crash errors and server performance issues. The fact is they don't know how to fix it as it's happening on new gen consoles. I have a PS5 as well but won't install this shitty game on it lol keep your dumb ass comments to yourself if you don't know shit

Feedback on Weapon Sight Customization

Hello, developers. I would like to offer some feedback regarding the current weapon sight visuals in The Finals. While the weapon skins in the game are beautifully designed and highly detailed, the sights remain unchanged and always appear in the default black color. This creates a noticeable visual mismatch and reduces the overall aesthetic quality of the customized weapons.

Would you consider updating the sights so they can adapt to or reflect the equipped weapon skin? Even subtle color adjustments or thematic variations would greatly improve visual consistency and player immersion.

Thank you for your time and for continuously improving the game.

Please allow heavies to use jumppad on power shift cause its literally impossible to get on the platform some times

thought they had adressed the cheater issue in this game xD all games today there has been clear cheaters and wallhackers. how fun. still rampid in this game. this game is just still filled with cheaters. and matchmaking is still terrible. smrufing still rampid. third party still ruins games. spawns still dog. and cant seem to get any players on my team over level 15. xD like what has this game become.

Double barrel still being a thing tells me these devs can never be taken serious 😂

[slow void]

guys are we facing bots in the new grenade launcher mode or are the cheaters more prevalent here or something? its extremely difficult. like i dominate in any other game mode but here. something is up. tell me im not imagining this?

[harsh whale]

that is completely unrelated?? yeah there is some server issues as of the latest patch but the ps4 is have services sunsetted and other games are retiring support. you clearly just got angry without reading anything because it was mainly for xbox players such as myself. and better yet? it's fixed. besides the occasional patch and specific regions ping and connection your fault for having poor internet.

Nerf SH1900 reload speed, fire rate, spread and range, nerf SR-84 the same way as pike so it's a last resort to hipfire at close range as opposed to a legitimate playstyle, remove frontstab backstab exploit from Dagger, nerf SR-84 damage to 109 and increase hipfire bloom by 200%(it is unfair to Light), Nerf Throwing Knives speed or damage and add a cooldown or ammo count to it, make it so using Evasive Dash resets its cooldown (effectively negating Evasive Dash chains) or decrease its capacity to 2 and unable to phase through opponents and finally, remove Winch Claw from the game already

Force crossplay when crossplay is on. You should not be in a crossplay off lobby if your setting is crossplay on.

Stop backlogging players into quick play matches that are within 10 seconds of a loss.

Add a feature to report entire Clubs.

Remove the 20 seconds respawn timer from reconnecting players.

[dark niche]

might be the worst takes ive seen
DB is okay, try playing it yourself
sniper is also fine
"frontstabs" arent an exploit
TKs are also fine, they're very hard to aim though i wouldnt be opposed to adding a reload to them
dash is also fine, the other light specs are just not good atm
winch doesnt need to be removed, just nerfed badly

[cobalt kernel]

Vault Winch, or nerf it in every aspect. 9-10m range, lower stun by 75%, remove hitbox on retraction, MAKE CHAIN BREAK IF OBJECT GETS STUCK ANYWHERE!

Remove BFR from the game, or give it to Light where it belongs (with slower fire rate)

Make Dome shield block all damage from all sides , for obvious reasons

Reduce number of Pyro mines to ONE, like the other mines

Buff all dead gadgets like Reshaper recharge time, Tracking Dart (add short glitch effect), Vortex and Breach Charge shorter fuse time etc.

It can't be that difficult honestly

We told you about the Winch disaster MONTHS before the qualifiers even started, now we have to wait an wait while player numbers peak at 11k... That's long term Players quitting btw, because people had enough of the cheese

Stop listening to the loud meta abuser minority, posting their delusional takes here. calling for the wakest class to get gutted even more

[raw bobcat]

friendly fire for practice range?

[white anchor]

HARPOON FOR LIGHT CLASS
The fast long range projectile sticks to players and surfaces and blows up after a few milliseconds (shorter fuse then thermal bore) and the weapon should have built in scope for long range accuracy,it is more unique then giving light class a thumper.

The projectile is fast but maybe have more of an arc for balance.
Incendiary explosion should have sparks and have fire damage when it falls down on enemies cause at least u need skill and timing.
This isn't used for destruction like thermal bore just fire damage.

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.

I can’t speak for PC users but on console it is genuinely impossible to hit dash users consistently due to sensitivity. Particularly when they dash behind you, otherwise (depending on the situation) it’s a skill issue.
Dual blades are probably the worst melee in the game rn and definitely need a rebalancing (NOT a buff)
Add a juggling animation for the dual blades!
I’ve already talked about it but sword is actually ridiculous in its current state and desperately needs a nerf. Its combo with evasive dash is actually crazy especially against console players who literally can’t move their camera fast enough.
This is a huge one for me personally as a mainly melee user, a light with evasive dash COMPLETELY counters every single melee in the ENTIRE game shit is actually ridiculous. The only way to fight a dash light with a melee weapon is to use evasive dash as well which should not be the way it is. I’m not saying to nerf it into the ground but please add some kind of counter/option for melee users against dash lights
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 nerf sniper, I have always thought that it required a high skill ceiling for it to be good and I just kept running into “good” snipers when in actuality it’s just insanely OP.
Also add goblins to the finals

• SOLO QUEUE RANKED SHOULD ONLY MATCH AGAINST SOLO QUEUES INSTEAD OF 3 STACK UNEMPLOYED RUBIES STREAMING TO THEIR 2 VIEWERS. HOW IN THE WORLD IS THAT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD? RUBIES WILL 90% PARTY UP WITH OTHER RUBIES TO MAINTAIN STATUS WHILE SOLO QUEUE GOLD/PLATS GET FARMED, THAT IS THE MOST TOXIC RANK SYSTEM I'VE SEEN AND GREAT WAY TO LOSE NEWER PLAYERS
• NERF 93R - IT'S CLEARLY THE MOST OVERPOWERED LIGHT WEAPON, I PICK IT UP FOR FUN AND DROP A 40 BOMB
• FIX RANKED GRIEFING - RUBIES ALWAYS PICK THE WORST TEAM TO QUALIFY IN THE SECOND ROUND. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING 2 CASHOUTS IN THE BEGINNING ONLY FOR YOU TO GET LAST PLACE? WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MAYBE LAST WAVE OF VAULTS SHOULD BE 1 INSTEAD OF 2? I'M SURE THE DEVS CAN THINK OF SOMETHING BETTER!!!!! JUST WITNESSED RUBY TEAM GRIEFED IN ORANGE ALL WITH 0-8 K/D
• WHY WOULD YOU DELAY BALANCE UPDATES FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYER BASE BECAUSE OF ESPORTS? ESPORTS PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADAPT. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THE WINNER IS HML WITH 93R, DASH, HEAL, FAMAS, WINCH, SHAK. SO PREDICTABLE AND BORING!!!!!
• REVERT SMOKE NERFS, SMOKE IS LITERALLY USELESS NOW, FEELS LIKE 3 SECS AND ITS GONE. LOOK AT YOUR PICK RATE DATA, I'M SURE IT'S ALMOST ZERO AFTER THE NERF
• FIRST ROUND RANK LOSS SHOULD NEVER BE AN EGREGIOUS LOSS OF PTS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A LOSS CAP OR TEMP FORGIVENESS THAT WON'T END UP INFLATING RANK! PLEASE THINK OF SOMETHING!!\

this LTM is such fucking garbage I can't believe Embark brought it back and didn't even do anything to change it up or refresh it like a new map. It's literally exactly the same as the original run of Blast Off with nothing different, even the Heaven or Else event changed the arena textures and weapon

Make the sword fun to use again. This angle clamp bs wasn't the way to go with the weapon.

I think it's because this is the easiest game to snipe in:

• very fast ADS
• hit scan within a certain range (sniping on BF6 feels like a paintball gun even at like 30 meters, you have to lead them and it feels like a huge delay)
• no aim punch while getting shot
• minimal or zero weapon sway while ADS...I don't even know if there is a hold breath mechanic, if there is I don't use it.
• other games, like Tarkov for example, as the scope comes to your eye, it doesn't line up perfect, it's off target and then slowly comes on target...there's none of that in this game or its not noticeable

Basically if you catch someone who is ADS and shooting your teammate, it's an easy headshot.

hello. i think you should add a possibility to earn past twitch drop rewards. either by purchasing them with money or having them run multiple times with proper alerts or through quests or something. i was online playing during the halloween time and i never ever saw an alert about the pumpkin throwing knives which is really unfair in my opinion. not everyone uses social media and i think you should properly show it off ingame like a big banner everytime you log into the game while the drops are still available or something similar. it made me really sad that i missed those knives and probably more people are sad about that too. please do something about it please. i play your game very regularly and it feels like i'm being punished for trying to quit social media and improve my mental health.

[solar crest]

sword is in a pretty good spot rn, lunge isnt useless and it kills every class relatively fast with m1s, although the skill ceiling for it is pretty low

[fading flower]

this game is genuinely a joke if they are letting the dragger do 320 damage with a single hit. not even the sledge hammer does that much damage when you m1 with it 3 times like smfh

[harsh whale]

what a great way to give feeback :)

anyway

winch should not hit through shields, that gives a reason to run mesh and makes heavy fights rock paper scissors. If nothing else it would add variety/ a reason to use something other than winch. it won't solve the core problems but I really want a reason to run mesh again

we need something to be done about third partying like damn. maybe on teamwipe health regen starts and you revive at double speed or something along those lines. it's brutal rn

I would love to see a level lock or something to ranked, like maybe 50

speaking of ranked there should be some sort of forgiveness to stop spiraling downwards. like perhaps if we lose 2000 rs the next -500 rs is forgiven / after 2 or 3 matches of - rs the next game you won't lose any and if you win it resets it protection.

this last one is a major issue I dont see anyone ever talk about. PINGING SYSTEM. it is not well done and constantly leads to mispings. ie wanting to ping someone holding the vault through a wall and randomly pinging the wall (on a side tangent why does the box not reveal the person all of the time? it should be riskier to run with the box) , trying to ping an enemies location when you dont have sight on them and the cashout station being pinged. I do not want to be able to ping the cashout station, I want to bring up a wheel that says "Lets go to vault 2" "attack cashout A " if you ping a cashout and want to change what the ping was? hold down ping on it and change it. I really want to let my teamates know where someone is, not ping "attack cashout B!" that is 200 m away. apex's ping system is really good iirc.

this is more of a please add one, I want see exactly what bullets hit when, how many were heads, and who hit me when. not to bring up apex again but they have a nice screen that pops up after death and you guys could really take stuff from that.

Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release? 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"?

Those who oppose my point usually do so without any logical reasoning, blindly criticizing or saying sword is fine without thinking because they can't handle it due to skill issue.Such reactions only reinforce my point.
Many sword mains have left because patches ruined sword, so they can't support this feedback. Right after the weapon was patched, many sword mains provided logical feedback saying the patch ruined sword, but Embark ignored it, so,most sword users quit.But I will continue to provide correct feedback until fix.

[tawny oak]

Stop giving console players server advantage, especially when they are cheating with xim/cronus. console players receiving no penalty to damage, registration and performance on crossplay servers while pc suffers and has issues, how do console players melt like the damage is instantly and has no drop off but if a pc player uses the same weapon its performing poorly.

i dont understand when i use practice mode in the game my damage is perfect, everything melts like it should but players in crossplay are the ones that have this amazing buff but mine is lagging, buffering, freezing, having issues, even i have to lead shots with a fucking hitscan weapon

---

FIX THE PLATFORM ON POWERSHIFT
It randomly stops allowing players to deal damage to enemies on it or deal damage while standing on the plat, for some reason it turns weapons into projectiles and not hitscan. fix the game please

nerf the CB01 fire rate and turn it into a projectile after 40m like the sniper rifle, same with the BFR Titan, otherwise buff the snipers hitscan to 60m or 80m to compete with those 2 weapons, increase its fire rate as well

Fix the melee desync issues where you are so much further away but players are dealing damage to you even though you are far away.

@sterile canopy its mainly with crossplay on, when the plat moves it doesnt allow shots to register properly now and then, its not all the time but its something ive noticed, ive had games where i had to lead shots while the platform moves in order for the hitscan weapons to register

[untold hazel]

ah yes match me against jobless motherfuckers in a casual mode thank you very much

FYI since you made your nut off of Arc Raiders and that is about to tank (considering the honeymoon phase is over and it is the biggest third, fourth and fifth party simulator) could we PLEASE have some love for s9. Please cook. Please do something.... speaking for every player

[vapid drum]

Bro CB is a rifle is still make scents for 40 m + the size of every class make it very hard (example light small hit box from 40 m is harder too hit and you ask to make it like a projectiles, that is just making the gun slowly turning to Pike, but pike can counter enemy 40 m far above because of the scope and above that the gun will have a dmg fall off but for the titan tuning the dmg (idk thought because titan has 5 bullets only) might be a good option but buffing a sniper too a hit-scan is just out of the question

Do you have any clips of leading shots with a hitscan weapon and that working? Because that should 100% not work. And, er, what buff? How did you or would you even observe something like that? There is nothing like a "penalty to damage", that's just silly.

[frigid juniper]

hello. i think you should add a possibility to earn past twitch drop rewards. either by purchasing them with money or having them run multiple times with proper alerts or through quests or something. i was online playing during the halloween time and i never ever saw an alert about the pumpkin throwing knives which is really unfair in my opinion. not everyone uses social media and i think you should properly show it off ingame like a big banner everytime you log into the game while the drops are still available or something similar. it made me really sad that i missed those knives and probably more people are sad about that too. please do something about it please. i play your game very regularly and it feels like i'm being punished for trying to quit social media and improve my mental health.

Hi Embark devs, did you just roll the patch 8.9 just to add an anti cheat that adds 7 gigs of storage use to the game and an anti cheat that made the game more cpu intensive? Like there's no way you just did that Embark, and what? Will all of that completely stop cheaters? I don't think so and i don't care if i play against cheaters for me it's easier than playing the game with 100 percent cpu usage and 80 degrees cpu temp and fps drops and stuttering, just because of a new anti cheat, Embark please before season 9 you need to fix this, the game is so intensive on the cpu now, you need to fix this before season 9 comes out, please find a way to either make the anti cheat less intensive on the system or remove it and use another anti cheat cuz like the game is using 3 types of anti cheats and that is so heavy on most of people's pcs and systems and that's not the way to stop cheaters Embark, like 3 anti cheats is too much delay and cpu intensive... Don't kill the game in a dumb way, Please

We gotta fix griefing, 90% of my losses are due to griefing, not an actual lack of skill in which the enemy teams played better.

If you want to double up, meaning plugging a vault into a cashout station which already has an vault in it. Delivering the vault should have a plug-timer similar to how you steal a cashout. Doubling a vault should be a high risk, high reward behaviour and should be high friction. Doubling the vault should be risky in itself, actually making you fight to do it rather than just kamakazi bomb it.
Maybe even make it so that cashout ownership is required to double.

We need an incentive to perform better. Getting first place needs to be a higher reward than second place. Currently people are intentionally giving away money and loosing first place, accepting second, just to grief the other best/next best team.
So either just make it so your placement matters, OR! We try to make it so the amount of money matters. I want money to matter rather than placement. Because I argue a team that got 105k money, definitely deserve a higher rankscore bonus than someone who won first place with 34k money. They clearly DOMINATED the entire game and deserve some kind of bonus for that.

If money matters, then people are incentivised to ALLWAYS try their best if they want to climb as fast as possible. And they will always have an incentive to keep the money rather than giving it to the worst team.
I think it will also lead to better YouTube/twitch content because people will actually try to get those crazy games because now they have a reason.

• SOLO QUEUE RANKED SHOULD ONLY MATCH AGAINST SOLO QUEUES INSTEAD OF 3 STACK UNEMPLOYED RUBIES STREAMING TO THEIR 2 VIEWERS. HOW IN THE WORLD IS THAT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD? RUBIES WILL 90% PARTY UP WITH OTHER RUBIES TO MAINTAIN STATUS WHILE SOLO QUEUE GOLD/PLATS GET FARMED, THAT IS THE MOST TOXIC RANK SYSTEM I'VE SEEN AND GREAT WAY TO LOSE NEWER PLAYERS
• NERF 93R - IT'S CLEARLY THE MOST OVERPOWERED LIGHT WEAPON, I PICK IT UP FOR FUN AND DROP A 40 BOMB
• FIX RANKED GRIEFING - RUBIES ALWAYS PICK THE WORST TEAM TO QUALIFY IN THE SECOND ROUND. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING 2 CASHOUTS IN THE BEGINNING ONLY FOR YOU TO GET LAST PLACE? WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MAYBE LAST WAVE OF VAULTS SHOULD BE 1 INSTEAD OF 2? I'M SURE THE DEVS CAN THINK OF SOMETHING BETTER!!!!! JUST WITNESSED RUBY TEAM GRIEFED IN ORANGE ALL WITH 0-8 K/D
• WHY WOULD YOU DELAY BALANCE UPDATES FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYER BASE BECAUSE OF ESPORTS? ESPORTS PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADAPT. DON'T BE SURPRISED IF THE WINNER IS HML WITH 93R, DASH, HEAL, FAMAS, WINCH, SHAK. SO PREDICTABLE AND BORING!!!!!
• REVERT SMOKE NERFS, SMOKE IS LITERALLY USELESS NOW, FEELS LIKE 3 SECS AND ITS GONE. LOOK AT YOUR PICK RATE DATA, I'M SURE IT'S ALMOST ZERO AFTER THE NERF
• FIRST ROUND RANK LOSS SHOULD NEVER BE AN EGREGIOUS LOSS OF PTS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A LOSS CAP OR TEMP FORGIVENESS THAT WON'T END UP INFLATING RANK! PLEASE THINK OF SOMETHING!!\

Nerf SH1900 reload speed, fire rate, spread and range, nerf SR-84 the same way as pike so it's a last resort to hipfire at close range as opposed to a legitimate playstyle, remove frontstab backstab exploit from Dagger, nerf SR-84 damage to 109 and increase hipfire bloom by 200%(it is unfair to Light), nerf 93R, Nerf Throwing Knives speed or damage and add a cooldown or ammo count to it, make it so you cannot reload or fire your weapon while using the Grappling Hook, make it so using Evasive Dash resets its cooldown (effectively negating Evasive Dash chains) or decrease its capacity to 2 and unable to phase through opponents and finally, remove Winch Claw from the game already

Force crossplay when crossplay is on. You should not be in a crossplay off lobby if your setting is crossplay on.

[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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees and weapons can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls. Of course, dmg must also be reverted. Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

[cobalt kernel]

Vault Winch, or nerf it in every aspect. 9-10m range, lower stun by 75%, remove hitbox on retraction, MAKE CHAIN BREAK IF OBJECT GETS STUCK ANYWHERE!

Remove BFR from the game, or give it to Light where it belongs (with slower fire rate)

Make Dome shield block all damage from all sides , for obvious reasons

Reduce number of Pyro mines to ONE, like the other mines

Buff all dead gadgets like Reshaper recharge time, Tracking Dart (add short glitch effect), Vortex and Breach Charge shorter fuse time etc.

It can't be that difficult honestly

We told you about the Winch disaster MONTHS before the qualifiers even started, now we have to wait an wait while player numbers peak at 11k... That's long term Players quitting btw, because people had enough of the cheese

And to top it all of you have the low skill Heavy meta abusers coming in here, posting their complete detached from reality 'balance takes' in this channel, actually calling for the by far weakest class to get nerfed even more.. it's mind blowing

[green iris]

quickplay will still be there? WT just takes potentional ranked players out of the pool and creates golds vs ruby situations.

[graceful cedar]

Am I the only one who thinks goo nades should be nerfed?
Being able to put up two big walls that have to be shot or avoided is really strong. It's among the most used gadgets for medium among defib and pad.
The only counter play is to either find a way around or to break the goo, which takes a minimum of 5 seconds to destroy with a gun or fire. Charge and slam is the quickest way to break goo.
Being able to throw down two goo walls down is too strong. My suggestion is to reduce the charges to just one.

[honest wing]

This is why balance is out of whack, why in the fresh hell do we need goo to be nerfed to 1, let's make goo gun only shoot 10 goo blobs while we're at it too

[charred delta]

firing who? ...do you really think someone is still working here? xD ...maybe one person to roll out the weekly shop-update to squeeze the very last dollars out of this shit... this place here is already lost... the fact that winchclaw is still in the game is the proof that the devs dont give a shit about the game and our feedback

I can’t speak for PC users but on console it is genuinely impossible to hit dash users consistently due to sensitivity. Particularly when they dash behind you, otherwise (depending on the situation) it’s a skill issue.
Dual blades are probably the worst melee in the game rn and definitely need a rebalancing (NOT a buff)
Add a juggling animation for the dual blades!
I’ve already talked about it but sword is actually ridiculous in its current state and desperately needs a nerf. Its combo with evasive dash is actually crazy especially against console players who literally can’t move their camera fast enough.
This is a huge one for me personally as a mainly melee user, a light with evasive dash COMPLETELY counters every single melee in the ENTIRE game shit is actually ridiculous. The only way to fight a dash light with a melee weapon is to use evasive dash as well which should not be the way it is. I’m not saying to nerf it into the ground but please add some kind of counter/option for melee users against dash lights
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 nerf sniper, I have always thought that it required a high skill ceiling for it to be good and I just kept running into “good” snipers when in actuality it’s just insanely OP.
Also add goblins to the finals

[obtuse scarab]

fix your servers, they get worse and worse with each update. dying behind walls constantly in an "esports ready" (lmao what a joke btw) game is pathetic.

[mental delta]

The intro cards should last longer (the part where every team is introduced and shown off at the start of a round and they do their intro emotes) I'd also change it so the players on a team are curved inward instead of outward like they are now

Also... it should not take a full minute to go from one game of World Tour onto the next stage. That is crazy work. "You're asking for it to take longer anyway" if we're gonna be sitting here I might as well get a good proper look at who I'm facing. But forreal I know it cannot take this long to go from knockout 1 to 2

[modern harness]

Hello dear developers,
I have two suggestions for improving the game. The first is that
Almost all events in the game are unnoticeable and have no significant impact on gameplay, and therefore are not interesting. Take the meteor shower event, for example. It only slightly destroys the area near the cashout, so it doesn't really change the course of the game. Alien invasion: there is no point in having UFOs all over the map because they destroy buildings slightly without changing the course of the game. It should be more concentrated near the cashout and vault so that the cashout and vault attract UFOs, and there should be more shots so that the debris from the buildings hit by UFOs starts to rise into the air and players adjust to the event. Because if the UFO is somewhere at the end of the map, it doesn't change the game at all, so the alien invasion should be intensified to change the course of the game more, for example, as I said, more UFOs near the main points, stronger attraction, and more shots.
Second: you removed the big monster that threw stones at the cashout and vault from the game. It was a very good event and I would recommend bringing it back, because it destroyed structures, forcing players to adapt, because the building where the cashout was located began to collapse. The only thing missing from this event was that there was no damage to players when stones hit them (if I'm not mistaken).

[polar niche]

Lighthearted request - can we get Mr Milchicks dance from Severance as an anim

[sand marten]

Poor matchmaking / non-existent matchmaking

Reduced server quality, connection stability and packet loss

Closest server to me is dead due to it being in a sparsely populated region (Oceania), as such, ASIA is the main alternative but that has dropped in quality significantly.

[clear skiff]

Can we get a rematch option in pub play please? It would be nice if when you have really good close games that people could have this option if everyone is all in.

[smoky gust]

Meteor shower should spawn burning meteors (reskinned high damage pumpkins from last year) at the point of impact
Might make interesting risk vs reward

Making alien invasion more concentrated sounds nice

I think it could also be interesting if the retro invasion shots dematerialized the structures around themselves, through whole houses, rather than surface level changes that miss most buildings and dont do a lot even when they do

Id also replace low gravity with the double jump event
Low gravity feels sluggish and punishes you half the time
double jump can be used of much more reliably, doesnt really negatively impact you when you dont and overall just feels more energetic

[coarse scroll]

goblins in the game please

[wicked hound]

need goblins in the finals ASAP

[frigid horizon]

Can we talk about how broken powershift is? Its aps, turret, barricade, cl, and flame thrower spam. The second the enemy team is losing they just swap to flame or spear and the platform turns into a blender, killing everyone instantly. This isn't fun. This is just painful.

[river atlas]

please please consider adding quick cast for gadgets! im so tired of pulling out a dome shield or some other gadget, clicking to throw it, hearing the deploy voice line, then swapping back before the item ACTUALLY deploys. an option where hitting the button for the gadget pulls it out, immediately uses it wherever you're aiming, then swaps back would be SUCH a huge QoL change!!!

[burnt notch]

looks like the ALFA ACTA emote's new rifle mesh on the bottom of the magazine is missing, hope this gets tweaked :)

[simple ether]

Yup. And while you are trying to destroy one of the 4 turrets behind a Heavy's dome shield, you get shot in the back by a P90 from across the map. Not to mention Powershift is plagued with cheaters. By far the most cheaters in any game mode. And by far the most cheaters in any game period. Even when you report and block them Embark still forced you to play against them. I mean there is a reason there is only 10k players at peak hours anymore. (Used to be 200k plus!)

[torpid quarry]

[cerulean birch]

Well hear me out, if you were better than the other teams you'd win

[jaunty vapor]

ideally, but that's not how ranked works. I've griefed out pro teams due to dumb luck

[mental prawn]

Not sure if this idea is the greatest but allowing dual blades to deflect melees a little easier, at the cost of taking a bit more damage. Not sure if it's ping on my end, facing the enemy right or just skill issue. Trying to block a melee with dual blades seems off.

[echo panther]

vault winch in season 9 or nerf it atleast

[vapid drum]

You thing winch stun is annoying, taser stun is more annoying and broken +people just used old taser for securing kill only rather then for defending. That is why embark rework the taser. I remember light tase me even thought my hp was already 9 left. Rather then shooting at me, he just tase me and then shot again

[honest panther]

https://x.com/Savochkin_Nik/status/1989410159698088305?t=99VgE_L07pV4gQi-4qwL9g&s=19 This would be a really cool skin for the bfr titan. The person who shared this post actually took inspiration from the actual gun itself which is really cool.

[wide creek]

No, remove the fucking BFR now. Kill that POS. Along with winch

[daring remnant]

Cloaking device sill feels underpowered. There's little reason to use it when vanish bomb exists, which can be used in conjunction with the powerful movement options of grappling hook and evasive dash.

I suggest either a significant buff to cloaking device, or alternatively a slight buff to cloaking device accompanied by a slight nerf to evasive dash. The end goal of both would be creating more scenarios where the best choice is cloaking device.

[gritty umbra]

Nah invis mains need a new hobby or sum

[cold stirrup]

the finals

[outer agate]

im looking forward to a dual blades fix this coming season, i never use these things, but there shouldnt be issues like the deflects not connecting due to slight latency and they need a little damage buff, melee weapons are supposed to win in melee range, although 80% damage reduction is a little bit too much during deflecting and the riot shield is worse with that, probably just rework some of these controversial items, reworks are better than rebalances since they give the opportunity to make it balanced, idk why its so hard, nobody is gonna be mad that less used weapons are never gonna be the same if it means they are viable but not oppressive

[lethal vortex]

bring bank it back🗣️

[shut wraith]

This is not important by any means but I think it would be cool for melees with throwing knives equipped to use the throwing knife in the animation to stab. If I had knives in my hand in real life do you think I would try to elbow someone?

As long as any form of aim lock exists,sword will have the most awkward handling.Since the rotation clamp is clearly the main factor making the controls feel incongruous,it should not exist in the game at all.Sword should just be reverted 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 spins wildly, only hit one target.The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls.Of course, dmg must also be reverted.Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release? 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"?

Those who oppose my point usually do so without any logical reasoning, blindly criticizing or saying sword is fine without thinking because they can't handle it due to skill issue.Such reactions only reinforce my point.
Many sword mains have left because patches ruined sword, so they can't support this feedback. Right after the weapon was patched, many sword mains provided logical feedback saying the patch ruined sword, but Embark ignored it, so,most sword users quit.But I will continue to provide correct feedback until fix.

[rose vigil]

A big problem with The Finals. Queue times for ranked/world tour. And match durations. My solution: Lower the ladder from 4 to 3. Quicker Ws and don't have to carry for so long if u are the carry in the team. Too many gamemodes as well. I think this spreads the playerbase too much.

[carmine token]

Less content each season since season 3

Messing up the core of the game by actively removing some of the crazy physics stuff

Fucking up VC

You're actively ruining your game for the 95% by pushing so obsessively for whatever ranked future you think the game is supposed to have

Please just keep adding content, that's what we all want..
Not less.

[feral fossil]

Nerf sword M1 to 70 dmg. Buff sword M2 to 125 dmg. Remove sword multihit. Remove aimlock.

This will raise the skill ceiling to a place where skill expression is possible at all. Sword won't dominate lower lobbies as much because people won't be spamming M1, and sword will be usable in ranked past platinum. This will also completely fix the "360 spinning tech" because there will be no reason to spin if you can only hit one target.

Right now, sword is only viable in plat or below. Any player who is good will instakill sword because of the aimlock. Almost any sidestep will make the sword miss their lunge.

If a weapon is op in lower lobbies, and absolutely useless in higher elo, it is not balanced.

[fringe hatch]

We ❤️ The Finals

[tacit whale]

Man you must have mash potato for brains. The winch is a free kill weapon, EXACTLY like the taser. I get that this is the only way you can get kills these days but for everyone else this thing is as bad as the taser except worse because you can’t even react to and it pulls you right in front of some of the heaviest hitting weapons in the game. With the taser there was at least a chance of shooting back. If you’re gonna let the 350hp class have a free kill gadget then let the 150hp class have one as well, or remove the stun on the winch like before. Just so you know I dont think the taser was fair either, which is why the winch needs reverting back to what it was before. There’s not a single winch baby that can change my mind on this. This shits gotta get fixed.

[hybrid oracle]

Day 30 of asking Embark to bring back bonus pages from past battle passes

[mental prawn]

I'd say the biggest problem with winch is how easy it is to hit, like I've missed it so many times but walking into an enemy's path after I "missed" and it's still active I end up hitting them. I think it should be more aim reliant and removing/reducing the miss, walk in enemy path, and still being able to hit. So winch becomes more of a movement prediction at it's longer ranges and harder to land, and makes it more skillful.

[somber hound]

Add a ruby dagger skin next season

[spark shard]

100% agree with the matchmaking and solo queue.

These have been the two fundamental things for me that have made me quit The Finals. This was my last season, and it hurts quite a bit because I've been fully dedicated since the beta, investing a huge number of hours and spending quite a bit of money on battle passes and the store, which I don't regret, but the situation is unsustainable.

Going back to those two problems, I believe the situation is irreversible** given the number of active players this game currently has**. There's no room to establish a matchmaking and a solo queue that is decent and fair. For my part, it's something** I've been saying in this channel since season 2**, and we're already finishing season 8, enough time to have solved this problem a long time ago with a decent active player base to have a better system. But well, for some reason, nothing has been done on this issue, and I deeply regret the current situation, which I see as irreversible at this point.

[light aspen]

100% agree and feel this.

Absolutely love this game and have been playing it a ton since CB2, this last season as well as part of season 7 have felt more like a chore than actual fun to play solo queuing. Especially ranked where you hit plat and are immediately going up against ruby three stacks as a solo queuer.
It's beyond mind boggling to me that embark for some reason thinks it's "fair and balanced" to put ruby 3 stacks who've been playing every single day for multiple hours each season against a plat 4 solo queuing is just crazy.
I genuinely feel this game would gain and easily retain more new players if ruby players weren't allowed to queue with players who were below diamond ranked for the season. The same goes for world tour where you'll see people who have less than even 10 hours in game being put against ruby three stacks, I cannot imagine how many players have quit the game for good because in their first hours of playing they're having to go up against the sweatiest of the sweatiest players.
Genuinely praying next season embark will do at least something about this, even if it makes queue times longer for high level players I feel it's for the best in the long term for retaining casual players, both new and old.

[wide quarry]

I completely agree — once you reach a certain score, the matchmaking changes so much that the fun disappears. Losing points is far too punishing, especially with smurfs who set tournaments to “easy” and make you lose 1000 points, which are extremely hard to recover. Player retention becomes very difficult in that situation.

And the issue of “griefing” is still present. It’s incredibly frustrating to lose everything in the final seconds because two teams decide to team up. These different problems make the game far too frustrating and prevent new players from sticking around, and even the existing player base eventually gets tired of it and leaves — just like we did.

Add Bonus Pages to Legacy Battle Passes. They were paid for and are part of any given Battle Pass.

Remove VC moderation.

@uneven coyote thx for your response.
No matter what name you come up with for Bonus Pages the fact of the matter is you buy and play through the Battle Pass so they are part of that paid package. All there is to it.
Regarding VC moderation I use no foul language whatsoever. I witnessed multiple ppl making regular calls and being instantly yeeted from vc by the game. If AI checks that stuff I simply do not want to be falsely flagged or even lose my account over a software mistake. Since CS for the finals is abysmal I simply don't want to take that risk.

[manic oak]

the amount of greefing, horrible matchmaking and ranked system. and cheating in this game is just ruening everything. no matter what mode you play there is some sort of greefing. from quick cash always 6 players defending cashouts against 1 team. ranked greefing. horrible matchmaking. and insane amount of blaitant cheaters. just turning it to a terrible state for the game. hope they do anything next season to adress anything at all that matters. not these nerfs and buffs. these are the issues that ruin the game for new players and old players. not biffing sword or nerfing winch. like comon. people complaining about dagger. ohh its so bad. go watch neon guts playing with dagger. and tell me it needs buffing. it doesent. its called skill issue. focus on greefing, matchmaking and cheating and the game would be 1000 times better.

[gloomy turtle]

I need a way to 1v1 my friends like in apex, this would be so helpful and I don’t know why this isn’t added yet, so many good games have this and is the only reason I kept playing them for so long, even just adding a friendly fire setting in the practice rage would help SOOOO much

hello. i think you should add a possibility to earn past twitch drop rewards. either by purchasing them with money or having them run multiple times with proper alerts or through quests or something. i was online playing during the halloween time and i never ever saw an alert about the pumpkin throwing knives which is really unfair in my opinion. not everyone uses social media and i think you should properly show it off ingame like a big banner everytime you log into the game while the drops are still available or something similar. it made me really sad that i missed those knives and probably more people are sad about that too. please do something about it please. i play your game very regularly and it feels like i'm being punished for trying to quit social media and improve my mental health.

[zealous schooner]

cross platform play is ruined with kbm on consoles. why is there a toggle to play against only console if they can use kbm too... at least change the toggle to input based matchmaking. its straight up unfair to go against a dashing light on keyboard and mouse with infinite sensitivity that they can somehow fine tune when there's a target in sight but be constantly flicking into oblivion beforehand into one clipping with the no skill double mag assault rifle (because why did light need an assault rifle with 60 bullets again???) might genuinely quit playing this game altogether with the dwindling steam playerbase being around the 10,000 mark as a baseline of playercount, and two consoles where most people DO NOT WANT PC PLAYERS. switch the toggle to controller vs controller only and kbm vs kbm only AND LOCK THE INPUTS ONCE THE MATCH STARTS so people can't just queue a controller game and use their pc controls and the game'll retain newer players

cant fault embark for a good game but damn they can be faulted for allowing this shit to go on

1st and 2nd won 2 cashouts each.

3rd and 4th are in a terrible state with only 1-4k to their names.

A 5&6 double alone should not be able to qualify those two teams.

One of the top teams should be almost required to be team wiped at least.

Right now ranked is just griefing in bad teams with little effort. 2nd gets to experience the equivalent of getting jumped in an alley by 9 blue shells despite doing everything right the first 4 cashouts.

This game isn't Mario Kart. At least, ranked shouldn't be.

3rd and 4th put themselves in the shitty position. They should have to claw their way out.

[quartz cedar]

1. Delete winch from the game.
2. Your matchmaking system (or lack thereof), and your ranked mode is the worst I have ever seen in my whole life of actively playing online games.
   Do you want 99% of players to have a bad time, or do you want ruby 3 man squads to sit in queue a bit longer, perhaps even fight people at their own skill level, instead of getting free wins handed to them at the cost of everyone else's fun?
   Average dad gamer solo queueing into triple ruby teams constantly (in ANY of your modes, casual AND competative) is the perfect example of this.
   Your game has so much potential, but your matchmaking system completely ruins all of it.

Otherwise I'd like to see buff to dagger, and remove turn cap / rotation clamp on sword.
Melee weapons was one of the things making me extra interested in your game, because it was not just another shooter (SADLY IT CURRENTLY IS)
rotation clamp / turn cap is an un-fun design, and goes against the idea of light being focused around movement and flexibility.
By this logic you may aswell add rotation clamp to sledgehammer aswell, it's almost like that even makes more sense than adding to sword, somehow.
But let's be real, no one wants that, and it does not sound fun. Remove rotation clamp.

[haughty lintel]

For the random skin for guns, please allow us to right click on the skins we would like to rotate through. If none of th skins are right clicked it will act like it does now. I avoid th random skin because it rotates through some skins I don’t want to see, like th progression ones. Want to see th ones I either paid for or earned through contracts or bp. Think it would be a solid QoL patch allowing us to enjoy the skins that keep us hooked to the game.

[severe meteor]

Delete winch from the game

[fierce vector]

hi

[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 look back to hit. And dagger is a weapon specifically designed for that. So are you going to add aim lock to all weapons? Why, sword can’t look back like all do? Every weapon can naturally look back. But sword alone is restricted from doing that? Why do you discriminate only against the sword by calling it an “exploit” when all melees and weapons can do it?
Wildly spinning the aim actually wasn’t used, It was used only in very rare cases dumb enemies were stupidly stacked in one spot.
If you want to solve the problem, then just remove multi-hit.
Even if spins wildly, they’d only hit one target. That solves the problem. The problem was solved without unfairly messing with the controls. Of course, dmg must also be reverted. Just revert it to S1.
Why you have to ruin sword’s identity that’s been there since its release just to appease the nerf whiners? M1 spam on a 150 HP class is not good. 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?
Why do you ignore feedback from actual users of the weapon, Why are melees being treated unfairly?

Stop ruining game with nerfs, balance it with buffs instead.

[vital basin]

There are so many counters to winch claw. Use goo gun. Use goo grenade. Use nullifier. use dash. Use jump pad

[charred delta]

exactly this! ...yea stungun was annoying. but not even close as the fucking winch! and you were able to counter it because only your movement was stunned (i´ve lasered at least 6 of 10 stungun-users but i´m dying 19 of 20 times against the winch). the winch is stunning you completely and makes you defenseless and free kill. and thats the biggest BS i´ve ever seen! ...as light maybe you can dash away but as medium you have nothing in your arsenal to counter this BS besides the heavy is already on 1 hp. otherwise you are just dead. its as simple as that. the range is too extreme + the complete stun + the fact that it works like shit in combination with the broken servers. you get winched while the winchuser is aiming 2m next to you, or you are already behind a wall, or on a different floor with no real angle to the winchuser... i´ve seen the wildest things... its just aweful at all... delete this shit and nobody will miss it except those freekill-addicted noshows/nohands and sweatlords who would sell their own souls to get even more kills to wank off afterwards xD

[violet matrix]

Unfortunately yes, the mediocre people at Embark and the developers of The Finals are abandoning the game to focus on Arc Riders, and it's painfully obvious. I mentioned this a long time ago; their mediocrity with the game is clear. They make truly stupid changes, they don't improve what they should, the balance is pathetic for a shooter, and they don't create quality content. Embark is truly disappointing. It's a shame because The Finals had become my favorite game, but due to the bad decisions they make, they're lucky to reach 10k players. It's awful.

[smoky gust]

this is the lonely hotel on monaco
it can house a cashout station
there is not a single place in this house where you can stay more than 12 meters away from a winch heavy

a ton of cashouts are placed like this
in a way where you outright cant contest it without either getting into direct winch range, or going somewhere a heavy could get within range in a second of walking

even if this room were twice as big, i could still cover all of it by staying near the middle

there is cover, so just trying to shoot from the outside doesnt work
there is more than enough space for them to move around, so flushing with gas also doesnt work
and unless you have sledge, or multiple people running exclusively explosives, there is not enough destruction power to make sure the heavy cant hide

Genuinely boils down to a skill issue.

Probably more I’m missing

[drifting prawn]

NERF HEAVY MAINS

[eternal wigeon]

Problem is that you need to predict exactly when the heavy will use their winch to counter it since it has no windup. Even if you stay at 12m meters away, the heavy won't stay still like a doofus and close the gap (which is easy). It's ridiculous how much work is needed to dodge the winch for how easy it is to land and the reward is huge.

I appreciate the the BFR Titan an p90 but we need MORE to keep players interested.

Given that Embark aren't putting any effort into attracting new players, they should increase the price of the game to ~$15 to discourage smurfs and cheaters from just creating new accounts.

All existing players keep the game, new players have to pay.

It will never happen, but it would be a good solution - and one that wouldn't upset the existing playerbase.

[odd cedar]

i dont even know what feedback to give anymore im just so tired. i get on to play now and i just am like "man, why do i even want to play this" i can't play casual because everyone just uses annoying strategies that aren't even good they are just boring to fight, i can't play WT because i get put against people that are WAY better than me, which yeah is a skill issue but i just want to play the game instead of use meta, and i can't play ranked because being in plat means i get put against ruby/diamond players pretty consistently (who are again, a higher skill than me, not afraid to admit that). i loved how compettive and close the matches used to feel back in season 2, 4, and 5 but now i feel like im logging in to be a target so ruby players can pad their W/L.

i love embark and know they know how to make a good game but MAN, i felt better about the trajectory of this game during season 3, and i really didn't like the balance/game feeling back then.

why did they take the double jump out of the Blast Off LTM?

[hasty hinge]

I love this game with all my heart! And I want to see it succeed. But the M11 for the lights needs some serious tweaking. Ive tried it as a light, and it feels like a very scummy overpowered weapon. It can kill just about anyone in less than a second with no balance to it. With the Mini Gun for the heavy at least that has a charge up before it fires. And dont get me started on snipers. IMO they RUIN the game. Any fum im having is swiftly drained by snipers who ruin the expirience for everyone except I guess the ones that use it. I really want the best for this game. Its a comfort space for me. But until the M11 gets some better balancing and hopefully we can get the normal game modes WITHOUT SNIPERS, I will continue to get drained from playing a game that I used to play for hours on end and leave happy. Now, I usually just end frustrated and angry. I'm sure others agree. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Also I loved the Private Match and wish we could customize more like respawn times and removing team wipeouts with less players. My friends and I tried 1v1v1 and there were 30 seconds before respawn on each kill.

[torpid scarab]

Make it so that to play the finals we have to connect the game to our bank accounts, and everytiime we die in a match, our fund gets reduced, but the moment we win we earn the total amount of cash we accumulated throughout the match. This can help mitigate the third partying issue and help players have a more free for all stake

You would think when practically every damn Blast Off match I was in last time were full of people intentionally AFK you would get the fucking hint....very little people want to run around with the skill-less fucking grenade launcher in what is supposed to be an eSport game.

Here's a fucking idea, maybe, just maybe start removing the toxic low skill shit like the CL-40 from the game and maybe people will come back to the game...I mean at least the ARC Raiders devs were intelligent enough to make the Hull Cracker grenade launcher worthless in PvP.
