another date found in the battle pass video, a brand of some kind?

[zinc timber]

Found this in the Battle Pass video, on the screen of the "gaming" emote https://imgur.com/a/9pc4HeV

[sly nexus]

No mercy (something) 2064 that’s probably the year Scotty and deedee played in

[teal blaze]

it said "since", there were only two frames to choose from and this one was clearer

[sly nexus]

Thought so must be a clan of some kind or a new brand

[teal blaze]

someone else found this new brand on a few cosmetics as well

[sly nexus]

Must be some new brands added

[worthy sleet]

what even is the lore behind this game

[near spoke]

merciless marcel when lol

[solid wedge]

quick theory, since there was no mention of st, Patrick's day or anything even related to the holiday in THE FINALS. me thinks two possibilities, 1. the sponsors and multico don't see the holiday as a "profitable" event to encourage and thus means there are other holidays that might be skipped or ignored due to emotional responses from the fans and contestants. 2. the Irish have been completely wiped out and long forgotten as (to my knowledge) there are no ginger hair colors or styles in the game and more likely that multico pushes the narrative that the Irish were a made up story of fictional green dwarfs that have a pot o gold at the end of a rainbow. if anyone wants to chip in or fact check, you are wrong and it's only one of these two. also, HOLTOW is still the best sponsor.

lmao even in lore perspetive

[rare osprey]

Also june mentioned that her favorite new weapon was the new repeater rifle of medium

[rare osprey]

Of the 3 new added

[teal blaze]

its possible that cns has been pushed out just enough that the fans no longer like them enough to be kept around, so they are no longer endorsing their presence

[tulip cedar]

Interesting, during the stream Scotty glossed over the cns thing from this last season while june tried to correct him, lore thing?

Unironically and hilariously, the weapons manufacturer has the most 'humane' fineprint disclaimer

[quartz island]

Do we know much about Valkyria

[serene otter]

she's the mole who's gonna be used by EA to launch a lawsuit over "battlefield"

[quartz island]

The Finals is more battlefield than Battlefield. EA dropped the ball and doesn’t have a leg to stand on

[serene otter]

tell that to the trademark legal network

[lone skiff]

LMAO

also is it just me or are all teh videos really glitchy?

especially at the ends.

also scotty claimed that vaiiya made TDM not cns and june tried to correct him but he cut her off

[fossil shadow]

Yeah thats the institute essentially trying to dismantle anything good CNS does, which is a lot of good

[serene otter]

also she's the netflix adaptation of the anime https://valkyria.fandom.com/wiki/Riela_Marcellis https://valkyria.fandom.com/wiki/Selvaria_Bles

It would taste like Zero Sugar Rockstar Energy, maybe? Same color too

Dors the Valkyria was inspired by something or not ??

CNS, my heroes in pink. Lets see what they are planning...

OSPUZE is controlling mind too, just like VAIIYA

Season 6 intro was having June says like "Wha, VAIIYA ? It was CNS-" Then cut short by Scotty

How does that apply to a home icbm

maybe it's just a holographic projection?

maybe that would make more sense than an actual nuke in your house?

[teal blaze]

Possibly

[tardy spoke]

Ok so this is the new ospuze outfit set that's in the new progression career tab. "adrenacaster - keep your foot on the throttle until the scoreboard begs for mercy - then keep going"

The Adrenal Gland or "adrenal medulla" sits right above the kidneys and releases norepinephrine or epinephrine. it's found in the body's sympathetic nervous system that's responsible for fight or flight. These two hormones are also known as Noradrenaline or Adrenaline which prepares you by increasing your heart rate, breathing rate, dilating pupils, stopping digesting, and more. You're basically responding to a stimulus that's putting your life in danger so you can run away effectively or stay and fight with all the might you have. You feel like you get 10x the energy.

The interesting thing about Ospuze is that it's tapping into your nicotinic receptors because it's those receptors in the preganglionic and postganglionic axons if our neurons (or nerves). Nicotinic = Nicotine = dopamine = addictive. When you smoke you basically stimulate those nerves and it releases dopamine.

So the dark side of Ospuze is... it's addictive like any other drug.

[tardy spoke]

Kinda does and kinda doesn't relate to Ospuze, I forgot that Nor-E (Noradrenaline) and E (Adrenaline) also vasodilates, or widens your blood vessels, to effectively pump oxygenated blood throughout your body. That's why Epi-Pens (epinephrine) is crucial for survival during a sever allergy reaction. Which is what i guess Ospuze does 🙃

thank you for reading my tedtalk!

[sonic shard]

So energy drink, coffee, and cigarettes at one can of ospuze ? Cool, sign me up

[cinder niche]

i just saw a red dot on seoul as well!

[quartz island]

I’m not addicted. OSPUZE is just a choice. I can stop anytime 💀

i found later that game that there were more on the outside corners of that building as well

[wet ibex]

i think they are referring to a different red dot, the vaiiya dot

[cinder niche]

oh looking back, youre prob right lol

[frosty violet]

What’s a good video or way I can easily catch up on all the lore?

[sonic shard]

Just like what Scotty said to REDACTED when they ensure his productivity being a host of The Finals

CNS return???

[celest bolt]

i wish :c

[rugged flame]

Why is the term called "Rising Stars"?
Like, is there a higher rank as the games go on?

[sly nexus]

I don’t but when I look for welsh laws I normally use university websites to find a free copy to look through

[round sluice]

Aren't all trailers

[sly nexus]

It just means “ahead of their game” “the best of the best” “champion” etc

[rugged flame]

Then why use "rising"? It seems to imply it's just the beginning.

[trail wren]

there’s not much to catch up in the rest of the seasons tbh. nothing happened except what everyone has seen in terms of CEO introductions

as in, main plot. newest stuff is the implications of Sal Scoria being an AI, the whole Alfa Acta security measures for the meatspace and so on

[sly nexus]

Because it’s a champion starting off or an underdog but given the skins it’s mostly a champion finding his flow “a rising start”

[gentle bronze]

Anyone else notice that scotty is lying about CNS in the new trailer? Is this anything or am I just being weird

[empty timber]

could be dissun, maybe none

[tidal tulip]

Any new videos soon?

[frigid orchid]

Is anyone else seeing the alfa acta-CNS connection?

[sinful crown]

Yup just watched the intro. Very interesting, cause he seemed to have a bit of a reverence (i think might be the right word?) for CNS’ meddling

[empty timber]

where again? if you say the video have glitch effect imma eat you alive

[round sluice]

Yeah, what's weird is that he acknowledges that CNS made the game mode when you actually play tdm

[frigid orchid]

it extends beyond that:
the general retro aesthetic of their commercial (CNS has a retro theme), a CEO that seems blatantly like he was planted there, this one may be cope but the fact that they got a black tshirt the same time as cns in the irl shop also points towards it, itd make sense for them to make a fake security company to infiltrate the finals and expose ospuze when theyre in the limelight as a seasonal sponsor

ESPECIALLY with all the S lies floating around

to me it just seems a bit too coincidental especially since they left instead of vaiiya kicking them out

[nocturne vortex]

Can people be imprisoned in the virtual space?

Just ran across my mind that CNS lost some numbers and had a few of their own captured lol

[gentle bronze]

I personally don't think they're connected, but there's definitely the fact both Alfaacta and CNS are named after both Olfactory and Central Nervous systems respectively

[gentle bronze]

Is there any reason to believe that?

[nocturne vortex]

Is there any to reason i shouldn’t?

[gentle bronze]

I mean..
Believe what you want but unless there's an actual reasoning for it then it's just a headcanon

[nocturne turtle]

Ludonope has a theory, that each sponsor represents a part/function of the human body: #easter-eggs message

[nocturne vortex]

I imagine how the plug into VR it locks them in like nerve gear

[fossil shadow]

New OSPUZE product:

[nocturne turtle]

They stole that from t:ger

Or t:ger was always an Ospuze brand

[teal blaze]

Maybe it's a collaboration

[fossil shadow]

I wanted to bring that up to the wiki folk

if tiger was a subsidiary/product line or a whole new brand from before

[teal blaze]

It's unknown, but somewhat doubtful that it's a rival company given ospuze's chokehold on the market

[fossil shadow]

I would've liked to list it on the OSPUZE page as a concrete subsidiary but we can't go off of speculation, but I am 100% with you on that theory

[lone skiff]

everyhting is glitching a LOT in the season six trailer, i think its been increasing in intensity over the course of the teasers. Something is coming. CNS is here. CNS never left. CNS will always be here.

[teal blaze]

Moist man competitive scene when

[stable spruce]

I love vaiiya for TDM

[fickle shadow]

do you think you can trust alfa acta?

[sly wing]

at the end of the season 6 trailer, theres a part where the sound distorts for like a SPLIT second

it goes lower pitch for idk like 3 frames

[wicked saffron]

No rewards from World Tour or League from Season 5 in Season 6. What's going on? What do I need to do to receive the rewards? I was Emerald 1 in World Tour and Platinum/Diamond in League.🚨🚨🚨🚨

[sly wing]

you have to wait a few days

they always make an announcement on game announcements saying that world tour and ranked rewards are slowly rolling out to players

[light flume]

Yeah, just to stop ppl from hacking last day and getting the good rewards before embark picks up on it

[wicked saffron]

Okay, I didn't know that because all my friends, whom I play with 24/7, have already received their rewards.

[hallow comet]

did someone called the number in alfa acta's ad?

[lone skiff]

ik thats what im talking about

[frosty violet]

What’s happening? Did yall discover new stuff?

[lone skiff]

The teasers got steadily more glitchy and the trailer had a LOT of glitches and even noise distortion at the end

[trail wren]

nope, sorry!

[teal blaze]

the new ads in las vegas, especially for alfa acta, are really weird

[teal blaze]

these are "odds" i guess, which i suppose makes sense for the literal nuke..?

[spice ember]

may be schizo here, but in the small disclaimer underneath the sponsor confirmation screen for Ospuze (can't send a picture but just look up someone signing with Ospuze, you'll see it somewhere), the ending sentence "Just ask Scotty" I feel could be pointing to that one voiceline in the arena where he says he once drunk six cans of ospuze live on air, almost as if it was a big deal, maybe that's hinting at something?

[vale halo]

even forgot the model existed

[dapper comet]

i wanna play that game l;ol

[quartz island]

im still seeing red lights in the arena from CNS week last season

[stable spruce]

does the game credits mean anything

like the old school style and the date 1982

[teal blaze]

It's been there for a while, both of these are due to the o.s. that the finals runs on, a system developed in 1984 (or 2, I don't remember)

It was developed by MultiCo, the company that owns the finals and all of the sponsors

[spare igloo]

which sponsors did the lore channel pick?

[robust nova]

Still contemplating my choice tbh, mainly it was either Engimo or Alta Acta

I’m not sure which choice would be better but I need a bit of convincing since it’s a hard decision for me 🤔

[quartz island]

Clearly it should be OSPUZE with the lore implications of S lies, baddie CEO, killer emote and weapon skin

[spare igloo]

yes but the ospuze outfit is subpar and after you use the a1n you'll no longer want the weapon skin
after unusually bad night running the a1n, im leaning towards to the 'Anduril" alfa acta or t-mobile/starlink enigmo than the pepsi company of the future

[gentle bronze]

Ospuze vest is really though, compared to Alfa Acta which had minimal holograms

[robust nova]

Damn these are all solid points, I can see why some of you guys would want to pick Ospuze. Lore implications with them is totally understandable (and the baddie part) but we must look respectfully my brothers and sisters! Jokes aside I do like some of their cosmetics, but the main sponsee outfit doesn’t sit right with me compared to the other two, but the gun skin is dope!

[gentle bronze]

I personally feel like since Vaiiya wasn't able to contain CNS (and hell, it seems like they might've been compromised by CNS in week 3), they were kicked out.

Sofia has been known to "deal with the hacks" back in Season 1, so I think the implication is CNS became much more of an issue and they're deploying the lady herself to look at contestants closer.

But... given the last CNS video where they say "they'll be back" along with showing what seems to be a hacked ospuze ad, I wouldn't be surprised if Ospuze stop is going to be attacked in some way

[prime maple]

If you die a pice of cloth using will it get yellow or blue?

[gentle bronze]

There'll be 3 weeks after Ospuze Expo.

Two weeks for Sponsor showdown, but a week for... what exactly

[empty timber]

lore

[gentle bronze]

hahah, but what exactly

[empty timber]

kinda sad they dont do weekly lore video no more

[gentle bronze]

That season 7 tease makes me think they'll do something big to showcase CNS hacking the game for real

[pallid elm]

@mighty sigil you think scotty claiming vaiiya made TDM is lore related?

[mighty sigil]

Yes. Clearly Scotty is covering up CNS and June didn't have a problem letting the audience know the details of CNS being involved

[pallid elm]

yeah that could be but I feel like it's more of a joke, covering it this blatant is pretty comedic loll

like clearly scotty feels ashamed when CNS the hackers gave us such a banger mode

[mighty sigil]

True but let's connect the dots. Scotty was once a contestant in the finals but out of all players he was chosen to be one of the announcers it's a little sus. Vaiiya (A security company) could be involved in CNS attacks since well a security company.

[mighty sigil]

Something feels a little off since June which was never a contestant and feels the need to express something that should be said

[pallid elm]

There's a theory I made a while ago which is scotty is not as good as contestant, june was actually pro, there's conversation like that in game but I forgot, all in all scotty is sus for sure

[mighty sigil]

It's kind of applied that June was never a contestant since the first lore drop of Scotty being one was said like this "Just like you Scotty"

[pallid elm]

yeah

[ornate fulcrum]

I just assumed they picked Scotty as an announcer because he was a pro and decently popular given how he'll reminisce about competing often

[mighty sigil]

Ah yeah you're right.

[mighty sigil]

But he definitely knows some inside stuff. Every interaction he'e always against the idea of CNS and June is always curious about the CNS attacks.

[gentle bronze]

Scotty knows Sofia, and Sofia isn't just a sponsor CEO, she actually manages a big chunk of the Finals itself

[ornate fulcrum]

Oh I didn't know that actually, i mean it would make sense why Scotty would mention Ospuze a decent amount

[mighty sigil]

Just the fact that Vaiiya (A security company) was the sponsor that Scotty picked to say about creating Team deathmatch was no coincidence.

[gentle bronze]

we know she took care of the S1 hacks

[gentle bronze]

I mean... yeah, it's a coverup.

[plush flint]

not just welcome
a even buffer model

[trail wren]

💀

[nocturne turtle]

"no more"
Was that ever a thing?

[empty timber]

😂

[gentle bronze]

I believe in seasons 1,2,3 before sponsors became much more prominent

[serene otter]

Took care of the hacks so well that the next season CNS took over the system

[lament locust]

i feel like vaiya is planningh something

[gentle bronze]

well, I guess I meant to say "she was taking care of the hacks" 😂

[lament locust]

like during the intro scene to the new season it was like something about vaiya sponsering something, june or whatever her name was said, no that was cns- then scotty interrupted her

[hard knot]

It's no coincidence but it's logical.
Vaiiya was commissioned by the big boss to take down CNS, the terminal attack is a representation of the fight between Vaiiya and CNS, thus making the "no respawn" rule logical

Saying Vaiiya introduced TDM is simply a way to drown the fish. Maybe June simply didn't get the memo.

TF lore is so cool, I hope they never end up becoming a controlling and unfair system for players

[empty timber]

they'd never bro, they listen to us all the times

[quartz bone]

Hopefully, I also hope they get more widely recognized and more popular in the future

[late osprey]

So we all agree ospuze has caffeine, nicotine, and nootropics in it right

[empty timber]

methamphetamine

[late osprey]

Tru

Them 20th century soldier Skittles

[fossil shadow]

The entirety of OSPUZE's item descriptions heavily insinuate through things like "gravity is just a suggestion" that OSPUZE literally gets you high like an addictive drug so I'd say its closer to meth

[late osprey]

I forgot it's the future laws and what not different it's definitely a methamphetamine derivative 💯

[cyan steeple]

So is it lore now that CNS is still in the game because of the server issues yesterday?
@fierce wadi

I mean it was only in America servers weren't working and the new theme this season is the finals in America with a variation in map design.

CNS was the first to hack a map before it came out... who's to say they didn't plant the same seeds again in new kyoto and new vegas.

[fierce wadi]

it was just server issues

[cyan steeple]

Still thought
Food for Thoughts.
Thoughts to reason.
Reasons for actions

[gentle bronze]

They were always here

[sterile dagger]

That's what multico wants you to think

[soft moat]

This is the kind of thinking thoughts that thinks up the thoughts to solve the lore

[cyan steeple]

I'm not a good lore hunter just the concept idea

[royal meadow]

speaking of multico
why does both nexon games i played have something about a very big company owning a shid ton of subsidiaries
at this point i feel like its intentional

in TFS it's multico
in BA it's kaiser
and both ironically are like poking fun at nexon somewhat cause well nexon does somewhat the exact same shid (but irl)

[fading oyster]

I may be wrong on this but I could’ve sworn I heard Scotty mention the fact that Kyoto was supposed to take place in 2568 when the AI reset itself

So maybe the game is a bit farther ahead than we think or it could’ve been an attempt at what the future could look like

[jaunty ermine]

Season 2 had both Ospuze and Vaiiya as its sponsors, and during it, the game was attacked by CNS

In Season 5 we had Vaiiya and CNS attacked
IN Season 6 we have Ospuze and it might've been hinted at multiple points that CNS will come back 👀

[sturdy crag]

Either I was wrong thinking Scotty was American, or he makes a British joke to June saying "pass the crisps"

[teal blaze]

Sounds like he was making fun of her accent, given that he doesn't like her very much

[stable spruce]

Is scotty an industry plant? 😱 ???!!??!

[carmine raft]

A plant? Scotty is a tree???

[serene cipher]

CNS in Season 7 was already confirmed after they showed a road map for this season, and release dates for next 2 seasons

[unkempt path]

I think it’d be more more accurate if the gameplay was more supporting of something like bleeding out on the arena or suppressing an enemy with the mini gun and them having to overcome to win because in the end, we are players trying to entertain a crowd

[gentle bronze]

Yes, I am aware.

But, I think it's likely they'll come back at end of S6 to setup their takeover in S7

[serene cipher]

They will definitely take some actions in s6, especially after they posted that “Sofia is lying” on Reddit

[gentle bronze]

Yeah yeah, I know. It's really cool how they hinted at that

[serene cipher]

Yeah, that was indeed creative

Honestly, I wish that CNS will leave by their own decision, and not because vaiiya defeats them

[gilded trench]

Is there story between vaiiya and dissun? Either they are against each other or what

[clear grotto]

Its in the s2 m11 skin aswell

Nothing like that
Vaiiya is security company
Dissun is energy
No reason to be against each other

vaiiya is soft security company VPN, firewalls, antiviruses, cryptography and so on

[nocturne turtle]

unless they are in a sponsor showdown again

taken from their Twitch Stream on Season 6's launch, where they started off with a presentation at the very beginning

[rain sail]

Been waiting since s4

[iron hatch]

where u been all whole time

[empty timber]

aint no way

[tacit granite]

I disagree, it seems to be possibly more CNS themed due to the “coding” look to the corners. Unless that’s just a coincidence.

[knotty fractal]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-plankton-alright-i-get-it-i-get-it-enough-gif-19558825

[celest rock]

What is CNS exactly? What are their motives?

[gentle bronze]

we don't know the answer to either of those

[thick ember]

my name?

[hearty epoch]

idk if there's any lore reason for this, but a bunch of the season 6 themes seem derived in a way from the diegetic music:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otLHGLcJgWQ?t=420

The season with Holtow as the main sponsor had "QueensOfDisco" clearly derived instead (also diegetic music):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otLHGLcJgWQ

if anything, it's probably just a sneak peek at wips for next seasons' themes

idk how the workflow is for music composition, so it might not be wips

[manic mirage]

new lore? i really need to make a video lol

[celest bolt]

i solved the lore chat

sofia petronelle was a samsung smart fridge all along

[gilded cliff]

The coding looks like C's to me

The bright letters look like C's, and if there was a higher res version available somewhere I'm sure the darker letters are likely n and s

[celest bolt]

those are C's indeed.

[gilded cliff]

Ok the darker things aren't letters but the C's point still stands

[celest bolt]

Yesss

Wait are you a samsung smart fridge

[gilded cliff]

Nope you're onto nothing

Then again, that's what a Samsung smart fridge tryna pass off as human would say

Hey guys! just found another small line from scotty that he was once a contestant! (vid is a bit quiet)

[empty timber]

scotty is a iseul-t fanboy

[fossil niche]

I really hope this shoe will be available as a skin some day!

[celest bolt]

i want scotty's shoe

[tacit granite]

That was another reason for my CNS theory. I don’t think we should go off of the name to much as it doesn’t seem to define what the season is about too much

[gentle bronze]

I mean, I don't think the char matters, it's just that there seem to be some problem values on the screen and it's likely it's CNS

[celest bolt]

i want cns we all do prob

[dusk kernel]

could a loremaster explain the significance of the number 32? I see it a lot on cosmetics

[celest bolt]

32 is awesome but its copyrighted so in my name theres the 31

[dry chasm]

Every contestant gets a “uniform number” like with sports jerseys, you get no say in it. Mine is 75

[dusk kernel]

unless you're RPing, this doesn't make any sense. There are several cosmetics with "32" on it from different sponsors and styles. I was just wondering what was up with that

like the key art for S6 has a big 32 on Valkyria's shoulder, it's not just a number generated on my cosmetics

[dry chasm]

Ill have to check my battle pass cause im 99% sure that each player gets a number that goes on cosmetics

For ex the ivada medi gun skin or the moolah jersey

[dusk kernel]

so mine just happens to correspond with the art for the season? lol

[dry chasm]

Its 1 in 100

Or 99

[dusk kernel]

but there are other numbers on jerseys that aren't 32. like the football ones have 9

[dry chasm]

Maybe your number is 9 and the 32 is unique to the Valkyrie, in that case idk why

[dusk kernel]

hmmm very interesting

[violet loom]

Mhmmm

[stable spruce]

scotty was

"in the thick of it" OH MY GOD REFERENCE

[cursive bough]

Out of curiosity, what is Ivada as a company? Just asking since I have that Ivada Nyavolt MP5 skin

[tacit granite]

We need a Scotty and June face reveal

[teal blaze]

we don't actually know yet, as they haven't been elaborated on too much as a company. it's possible they have something to do with the military however, given their cosmetic emphasis on tactical gear.

[robust nova]

With that being in mind would Alfa Acta and Ivada be considered the only military-based sponsors or no?

[teal blaze]

That we know of, yes. Although Ivada seems to be more military-centered compared to AA, they have a leaning for home defense as we have seen.

[robust nova]

I would honestly like to see Ivada at some point be one of the selectable sponsors somewhere in the future along with CNS (which I know isn’t a sponsor) but it would be fun to see in future seasons since season 7 teases their return on the roadmap

[cursive bough]

What’s Ivada’s primary color? Because I hope it isn’t pink

[teal blaze]

They sponsored the battle passes for s4 and 5, so presumably they will become a bigger player in the future

[teal blaze]

Dark grays, a lot of neon l.e.d.s

[robust nova]

Mainly black, white, and Neon orange are their signature colors to my understanding. CNS is mainly purple with teal, pink, and mint green for the neon rainbow they have for the logo

[round sluice]

Yes that's just your personal number which was also used for promoart
No meaning behind it (that we know of)

[long urchin]

The number is random, it’s randomly applied to cosmetics for each player, your personal number is probably 32

[long urchin]

Main sponsor of the biker outfit

[brisk arrow]

can anyone explain iviada(?) lore?

[empty timber]

not much info to be explain

[empty timber]

https://www.thefinals.wiki/wiki/Ivada

[tranquil cloud]

gateway has no skins bc its a cns gadget, no sponsor will make gateway drip😔 /lore

[fossil niche]

Ivada is the GOAT

[hearty wing]

I argue that dissun, the powerhouse of the cell, is the GOAT.

[fossil niche]

To be fair, Dissun is one of my favorite sponsors with Iseul-t and they are really cool

[fossil shadow]

Interesting descriptions for the new IVADA set

[hearty epoch]

68 is mine
so close to the funny number

[hidden sage]

Get out

[cursive bough]

Don’t make my spend money again, Embark

I wanna save it for Cookie Run

[sleek aspen]

who runs the finals?? is it a company? i know they got sponsors but is there like a FIFA for finals? (in the universe?) tried searching it but didn’t find anything

[gentle bronze]

Finals is ran by MultiCo

[dusk kernel]

and they are the parent company of all/most of the sponsors, right?

[gentle bronze]

pretty sure, yeah

[manic mirage]

atleast the parent company of holtow, engimo and iseul-t

What is the name of the third announcer who speaks in the background in the arena?

2025-56 is that code? Is there gonna be the finals racing now?

[strong plinth]

I saw that too I think it just means Season 6 2025 lol

[hearty epoch]

:(

just realized the logo for the finals is both a diagonal F and it shows the rounds have a progression tree

i might be wrong on the second part though

plate of corn ass realization

[low sundial]

The implication is that Scotty was known for having won a round without dying so now whenever someone else does it they’re “just like Scotty”

Sorry that was a reply to this question

[high summit]

Idk if anyone has pointed this out but the “now you know” emote from the Stryker Grid bundle… kinda looks like it says “CNS” when it says “C U SOON” like flip the U and it is an N… idk if I’m onto smth or on smth but just thought I’d point it out

Possibly 👀

[pure bear]

😮

[hearty epoch]

specifically stere0 from season 2 has a lot of classical music inspiration

their chord progression, and sometimes the lead is very classical

a few other season 2 pieces have sections that feel inspired by classical music, but stere0 has classical as the main course, deviating rarely

[gilded cliff]

Also rotate and flip and it becomes a lower case t with a very curved bottom

[hearty epoch]

i can see the t but its a bit vague i think
idk if it's intended

[sacred latch]

I wonder why it's worker's-strike based

[merry lion]

hi everyone

[lone skiff]

Hi this is the lore channel

We loreve lore

[low sundial]

Did anyone else see that the image for the new IVADA shoes shows them having the slogan Equip, Engage, Excel. But the actual shoes have the slogan Alter. Exploit. Destroy.

[stable spruce]

Could be an interesting sponsor next season

maybe holtow, volpe, ivada?

volpe is only the only major sponsor left

[odd blaze]

Be cool to see a cns one tho there not a sponsor

[robust nova]

I would 100% want to see that next season or atleast have them be heavily involved in the storyline for season 7 plus bp skins

[gentle bronze]

I assume CNS in S7, maybe volpe or ivada as another new, and holtow as returning

[low sundial]

Something tells me that next season we’re having at least one returning sponsor

[stable spruce]

yes they established that already

[trail wren]

this looks like a bug, considering the icon has yellow color as well

[onyx hazel]

So
I wonder
Are our contestants actually vr connected to the game like their hands and stuff?
Because all of them seem really good with weapons in general
Is that added by the game or is their experience part of the reason for that?

[long urchin]

It’s probably ready player one style
So people wear haptic suits so they have control over their entire virtual body

[onyx hazel]

Yes I thought so too
But then
Does it mean our characters in their real world knew how to operate weapons?
Do they have some sort of combat experience?

Like they know how to reload an ak an rpg a machine gun...

[tulip rover]

Well I would assume that it's like really advanced airsoft. If you play VR you know they have tutorials for handling the guns.

But seeing as the finals commenters have said that the buildings are made by virtual architects, and the guns are made by virtual gun manufacturers (like Alfa actA) I would say they have to have a good understanding of guns. Overall guns aren't that hard to operate. But then you think about the throwing knives and Spears and swords. I think one of the contestants, the ballerina we see for the quick play image. Has her signature weapon as the throwing knives. So they have to learn how to throw throwing knives accurately.

[tulip rover]

The correct term is virtual combat sponsor

[long urchin]

I’ve seen the contestants be described as highly trained professionals, so it would make sense

[grizzled briar]

i remember rob said volpe has more significance in the lore thats why they havent been a sponsor yet

[gilded cliff]

Is the slogan the same on both sides? Cuz the thumbnail shows the right side but your pic shows the left

Wait am I tweaking

Does it have like a Velcro patch that's open on both sides? Wth?

[dusty veldt]

does anyone got good details on the beef between cns and ospuze? just curious lol

[low sundial]

Yeah, it’s the same on both sides

What’s really interesting is that the slogan that that is actually on the shoes belongs to discovery corp, who haven’t gotten their own associated cosmetic set yet

[hardy berry]

AA makes stuff fro meatspace home defense, IVADA "makes" vr guns

[tulip rover]

The meat space is VR tho?

[hardy berry]

also unions are a thing in the finals-verse, pre the new set

[hardy berry]

no meatspace is the real world. Cus its made of meat

[tulip rover]

Ummmmmm are you sure?

Like where does it say that? I'm genuinely curious

[hardy berry]

and apparently at leat IVADA has unions or is having some unpaid wages disputes it looks like

[tulip rover]

Oh just saw the end of that message

[hardy berry]

also quoted on the community wiki, that has a channel in here (so im assuming it has embarks blessing)

[tulip rover]

THE FINALS takes place about 75 years in the future, roughly around the year 2100. It is the greatest virtual game show on the planet, with a large, global fan base, "and considered a window to a bigger world outside of the real one - known as the Meatspace."

[tulip rover]

Ok taken directly from the fan wiki. So it's like the Oasis from ready player one

[tulip rover]

Honestly I can't tell if it's saying earth is the Meatspace or if the finals is a part of the Meatspace

[empty timber]

THE FINALS is inside Virtual World

Meatspace is the real world

[iron hatch]

Alter. Exploit. Destroy. - slogan of Discover.exe

[teal blaze]

discovery corp, the company on all of the guns, is more likely the company that "makes" vr guns. they have engravings like "virtually manufactured" on the sides of many of them, so ivada might be more like a military group

[tulip rover]

Ohhhhh I like that theory

[maiden umbra]

sorry for bringing this back up but i was 100% behind this idea as soon as i saw AA officially being one of the sponsors for s6. CNS having its whole intrusion/override moment in the latter half of s5 saying that "something stirs on the horizon"... now suddenly there's a fresh new sponsor on the block and you can sign with them? it just feels WAY too fishy for me to shake that idea. also i mean come on, not to stereotype but the ceo of AA just gives hackerman vibes personally.

but also CNS my beloved, i may be (very heavily) biased

[blissful ridge]

volpe was sponsor of 1st season

[uncut pike]

sounds pretty out there to me
i don't think embark would so strongly establish a group just to then evaporate them as being another group

[wet ibex]

maybe they mean sponsors that you sign with

[maiden umbra]

sorry didn't mean to imply evaporating them right off the jump like that. more like giving CNS a cover, hopefully let them be able to roam a bit more freely in the finals ai before getting caught and fought against by vaiiya/marcel

[blissful ridge]

next season holtow will be 100%

[tacit quail]

It might be safe to say that holtow is coming back next season, because till now we got a 2nd tier for 2 of the first 3 sponsors. So we may expect a 2nd tier reward for the 3rd sponsor: holtow.

But i don't think CNS will ever be a sponsor. Because, 1) it's not. They previously "sponsored" a whole map and 2 game mode, meaning by that they hacked into the game and added them. Career sponsors collaborate to make a map, and this is not what CNS does. And 2) it might hack the place of another sponsor, but if it happens at the beginning of the season, you bet everyone is choosing it, and if it won't happen mid-season or the players will go reckless.

[gentle bronze]

I mean... I don't think anyone assumes that CNS as a sponsor would somehow appear half-way through the season.

There's really nothing that makes CNS's sponsorship impossible. People thought Ospuze isn't going to be a sponsor because they're too big, but look at that. Themselves hacking into the sponsorship system is totally logical.

[tacit quail]

I'm ALL for CNS sponsorship. But if you think about it there's only 2 possibilities:

• If it comes with a returning sponsor, people who chose that sponsor will have a problem choosing between a higher Tier reward by showing loyalty, or CNS rewards which people fell in love with since S2.
• If it comes with new sponsors (no returning sponsor), it will be very easy for every player to choose CNS. The great competitor to CNS is Ospuze.

So maybe the only way to balance it all is: base tier CNS, 2nd tier Ospuze, 3rd tier Iseult. Which would honestly make me cry having to ditch Iseult.

[gentle bronze]

I don't think Iseul-t would come back for a third time, not before other sponsors do.

And I really don't think that CNS's arrival means it's a problem, because Embark had no issue giving us Ospzue which is a fight with a known winner.

They're giving people what they want. People wanted Ospuze, but felt it might not come - but it did. If people want CNS, and it seems they do, there's nothing stopping them from doing that.

I don't really think Embark is afraid of a sponsor being chosen "too much". And if, then they're going to make sure there's a choice, like you said Ospuze v.2 or Ivada or somethingg that's also going to be good.

Besides, if Season 6 sets a precedent of Sponsorship sponsors also sponsoring the battlepass, then we could see CNS be both as a sponsor and have some items in the battlepass.

[kind anvil]

im newer to the lore, but isnt CNS a group of hackers, as opposed to a company/brand like a sponsor would be? how would that even work?

[blissful ridge]

volpe, ivada, holtow next sponsors
and cns as hackers

[tall cliff]

Guys why did embark removed the support of Nvidia profile inspector and is it going to return?

[hoary blaze]

hahssh

[gentle bronze]

The same way it did before. They're hacking into the system and setting themselves up as a "sponsor".

We've seen that with the S5 world tour where they added their own stop, they added TDM and even store cosmetics

[zinc timber]

CNS wants to be seen and heard. It would make sense for them to hack in as a Sponsor

[quartz island]

If they don’t “hack” back in this season. I expect them to come next.

We will see them again.

[onyx hazel]

I would like them to have more rebel style clothes

[dusky nacelle]

I feel like they do red sponsors too much, let’s do trentila instead and get that nice lime vibe 😋

[barren crow]

Asked Rob for a lore leak in live stream and he said "BANANAS!" idk if it means anything

chatting to level up

[cursive bough]

I’m gonna be honest, I don’t think Ospuze would have anything good in it

[hybrid yew]

I might be late but what do the random numbers on the cosmetics mean?

[fossil niche]

We agree. I also do not think that Ospuze is something good for health either. However, something bad for health can be made from something good for health but it was transformed so much that it became bad.

[slender gulch]

wait, there is lore?

[spiral agate]

what do you mean we have lore here? 😮 Is this new?

[glacial walrus]

Does anyone know how the random number on skins works? its a specific number for multiple skins, and different for each player, how is it calculated and can i change it??

[kind anvil]

from what ive seen, we all get the same number on some items, and on others its completely random and unchangeable

[summer helm]

What do people think of the new Stryker sets descriptions?

Seems to be referring to a strike of some kind, CNS finally being brought in line?

Referring to Numbers on Cosmetics and Weapons. I think it’s becoming clear that our own signifier is meant to show that an item is a generally non-owned item. Stuff that has a number that isn’t yours is meant to show it’s worn by a in-lore Contestant.

[empty thunder]

I'm mostly getting pinkwashing vibes from that set and related descriptions

[soft idol]

Does Scotty canonically bathe in ospuze? (He loves it so much, and ospuze markets itself as a replacement for water everywhere)

It even uses "Who.Needs.Water." as a slogan

The Finals universe does not know traffic laws

in the map Seoul, when you look at the bottom of the deadzone, you can see cars passing. However, there are no traffic lights nor are cars driving correctly. Therefore, within the gameshow, they did not know how to accurately portray traffic laws

am i crazy or there are 4 announcers?

only 3

i think i hear a fourth announcer from speakers on maps, he doesn't sound like any other of announcers

that the third guy

[signal niche]

he sounds different, or is it seems like it because of the speakers?

[empty timber]

they updated his voice

Scotty is a gamer and therefore does not bathe, discussion over

IIRC he speaks in Korean on Seoul, maybe that's the reason?

How fucked is inflation that were getting thousands of dollars in 20 minutes and yet we haven't retired yet

i think dede it's a solo player, in season 1 official trailer we see that other contestants have their own team except dede

I like to think that multico isn't actually giving money out, but rather multibucks kinda like how mining companies used to pay employees with company scrip

Sounds about right

[hoary blaze]

[gentle bronze]

Bitcoin scams

[light flume]

in universe inflation is so fucked that $22000 is the equivilent of just stealing some guys wallet

[gentle bronze]

It's quite an interesting case, since we don't know if multibucks are only inside the finals or are an actual currency.

If they're an actual currency that you actually earn in the game (those 20k from quick cash let's say) then inflation has to be super high
If they're only virtual then I assume we're earning just that, which allows us to spend it in other virtual worlds (Season 3's trailer showcases people in the vr that aren't playing the finals itself)

[brisk otter]

The Sponsors get into a financial war for top spot, that is why they start stealing cashouts from each other to fund their advancement for financial dominants.

That is why capture the cashout started, the sponsor with the most cash at the end of the season becomes top sponsor for the next season.

[gusty bough]

"Arenas are based on iconic locations around the real world"

I think people are just bored of the real world in the finals

[sullen karma]

ah, the only reason i thought it was "apocalypse" is because you can buy sun insurance

Nah, the finals is a live show within a game

[solid wedge]

WAIT, IS THE FINALS REAL? WITH REAL VIRTUAL SOCIAL MEDIA? AND REAL AI VOICES? IN THE REAL FUTURE!?????

now that i think about it, if tv cable want's to survive. something like THE FINALS would be the next evolutionary step for tv, vr, or streaming???? i think i gave myself a stroke metagaming...😵‍💫

[tawdry hill]

nobody actually dies in the finals but participating costs a lot of money so getting eliminated puts a lot of contestants in the hole. however winning gives you so much money that the winnings can beat the losses and contestants are basically gambling with each game of the finals they participate in. this form of gambling is extremely extremely profitable and popular to the point where every large company wants to be a part of in the finals, whether it be through advertisements or sponsoring famous contestants

[solid wedge]

i like to think, that the respawn tokens are worth so much in both WT and ranked and the only reason you don't have that many is because your contestant is either limited or poor.

[tawdry hill]

solo queue cope: i keep this concept in mind when solo queuing. i am basically gambling if i am going to get skillful teammates or easy opponents. the finals is surely a skill based game but there is a lot of luck when it comes to progressing to the final round

[solid wedge]

which is why casual modes like ps, qc, and tdm don't offer that much prize money. plus imagine splitting 20k with three people with these ridiculous prices.

[tawdry hill]

this is cool

[solid wedge]

unless you are pub stomping, you and your team are making it out with 10 or 15k and splitting that amongst 5 contestants kinda sucks.

Imagine a small wad of cash on the ground and like two heavies, two mediums, and one light. staring at it after recreating Vietnam on fucken skyway stadium.

[tawdry hill]

wait this gives me a good #👂┇game-feedback suggestion. what if quickplay/casual matches had emptier arenas/stands. like they are smaller scale intermission matches that not as many people go see

[solid wedge]

would make sense, if this wasn't THE BEST GAMESHOW IN THE WORLD!

i would imagine the viewers don't care, they want blood sport, they get blood sport

[tawdry hill]

if it was the best gameshow in the world, it would be quite literally the only thing most people would be doing for fun. it would be like the olympics but every day, or something. and even the olympics has smaller-scale events

So I think that scotty and June might possibly be stuck in the finals, to forever commentate on our games.

I honestly haven't heard about any info about a roman map until now tbh. Mainly I've been hearing a lot of talk about a medieval map as well as a petition to get it into the game later on this year under the maps chat. That and on a recent livestream the devs talked about dragons coming to the game at some point which could imply CNS hiijacking the gameshow, but I'm not sure if it's coming later this season or not and if so it could be halfway or at the tail end of season 6 as we move into season 7, but again this is just speculation on my end from all the info I gathered from what I've seen here on the server plus some youtubers/livestreams

[brave narwhal]

I’ve been hearing hints of a medieval thing for a few seasons now, but the Roman connection was made from a couple of hints and other connections made by other EE hunters

i think they have a tick tock season schedule. they do a themed season for all the odd seasons and then a have fun theme for the evens.
3: JAPAN 5: MEXICO
4: SPORTS 6: SPORTS ETC.

7: will be another themed season, perhaps rome if the EE are to be believed

[paper canyon]

it will prob be cns

[stray warren]

CNS hacks the Major Stream watch

[quartz island]

That would actually be hella cool

[neon shard]

Am I dumb for thinking that there's no way season 7 won't be CNS? Scotty and June's broadcasts get increasingly more "glitchy" the closer we get to one of two things: 1.) A CNS message 2.) A CNS themed season

I mean, I won't be disappointed if I'm wrong and I know that's just correlation and I could point out other things. But, I don't know. A lot points to this season having at least SOMETHING to do with CNS

[gentle bronze]

Rob said dolphins are sleeping "at least until s7" so yeah, it's pretty much guaranteed

Yeah, I hope CNS plays a big role again in season 7 like they did in season 2 with what I assume is three new maps currently confirmed being a medieval, Rome, and ocean/tropical map. But I do hope we get more CNS cosmetics and a prestige/bonus tier section like what they've been doing with the sponsor's the last few seasons like Oze-puse, Ivada, Dissun, and Trentila to name a few

I would honestly love to see some more CNS variations of some of the maps like with what we saw in Bernal and a few other locations during world tour last season and maybe some evolving cosmetics

My mistake there, it’s been heavily implied that we could be seeing a medieval/Rome map at some point next season. I know you mentioned something about dolphins from one of the previous livestreams so I figured that we could maybe be getting a tropical map at some point though as well 🤔

[limpid phoenix]

Is there a consolidated place to read up on Finals lore? Like a wiki?

To answer your question yes I do believe there's an official wiki page for the Finals, but I'm not sure if there's a lore section yet. But basically the wiki's being updated quite a bit as of late especially with the new update today

Awesome, thanks!

[hardy berry]

Well apparently engimo offers some kind of "bad press/ hate comment remover" as a service which they can do because nothing is private from them 🙂

Not terrifying at all...

[knotty fractal]

this is why the finlas would want to have them sponsor as they can remove all backlash that the gameshow generates

[cursive bough]

So we have a PMC, a media censorship company, and a piss drink distributor as our sponsors… sick

dont dis my glorious queen sofia like that

Actually no, Alfa Acta’s home defense, right?

Or is that Ivada?

[hardy berry]

Also AA is more of a psychotic gun store then a PMC

Ivada makes stuff AA sells it (I think)

A thing I don't think enough ppl are hyped for is that because ospuze is a sponser that means we are gonna get an ospuze ad!
