We'll see when the player count stables out. It peaked at 31.5k yesterday. That's initial season hype. I hope the season ends up with a stable 20k so we can have parallel ranked next season. Don't think we can with the 14k average we normally have. And yes, I know they're making changes to cashout.
You were actually always able to slide with defab pads out. You can also slide with heal beam. If you have auto sprint on with no delay, it’s very easy to do. Makes for crazy movement during mid fights. Reminiscent of Lucio from OW.
Same! it was cool buying it with the multibucks i earned from the previous season. but im still happy to support the devs. this game is so much better than the copypasta CoD of the year
tbf they still give you the free multibucks through out the season that alot of games dont so i can see why they'd do that for the free to play game so they can make a profit, it is a business and you dont NEED to buy skins to win so
You’re incredibly entitled it’s a free complete high quality game what’s the point of even saying ‘I honestly preferred when more things were free’ like no shot you thought that was a hot take lmao let the developers make money off the extra things they add to the game quit complaining you’ll wind up with a paid subscription game or advertisements before every lobby if you get 10 free skins every month Edit: go buy a skin just for saying that
You can deflect winch claws with dual blades, by the way (edit) I lied, I got gaslit into believing this because a claw was BARELY out of range aimed directly at me, it looked just like a parry
I love the new season so far except for the addition of the winch claw. The utility is insane but if you're a light and they use the sa12, you literally die at full health with no counter play at all. A 1 second windup time would be helpful for people to try and dodge it since there is no counter play to it atm
First of all, I really really enjoy and love this masterpiece of a game, Embark studios does a great job, so much so this is my first input publicly online on any game EVER. With that being said I feel a few changes could improve the game. 1. Have a RANKED option for each game mode in the game. I would personally love Ranked Bank It or Ranked Powershift. It could all be under one Ranked button and you just select the game mode you’d prefer. I love all the game modes and would love to get (more) competitive across them all. 2. I feel like tournaments can be changed in an interesting way. It would be an extraordinary if, after finishing the first round of the tournament on say, MONACO - CASH OUT, the 2nd round can start as LAS VEGAS - BANK IT, and vice versa; so on so forth. 3. Add a “slicing” destruction mechanic for the sharp weapons, the destruction in the game is incredible and I’d love to see different kinds of ways it can happen.
I calculated, and for gold 4 you need 225 win points and let's say you get an average of 3 win points per tournament ( for casuals this number is still very optimistic) means u need to play 75 tournaments, most of the time casuals somehow make it to the second round or not so we'll average it and get 15 min per tournament, so the total time to reach gold is 1.500 min or 25 hours, and that is roughly 2 hours of play ti.e a day every 2 weeks, to much for little reward
I hate the wench claw. So broken that they essentially negated the downside of heavy’s melee weapons, that being their lack of range. Theres literally no counter from the wench claw aside from maybe a glitch trap. They can pull you through all types of shields
@@Spoonington nah GS is heaps faster. Its instant compared to the wait time of QM. I just have the muscle memory already down from CS and playing sword
Im all for the ranked change what was the point in having tournament and ranked this change is a lot better for the game Them disguising tournament with the name "world tour" definitely made it more popular
The seldge hammer has a major weakness that it couldn't hit 2 or more players at the same time.. also the lh1 didn't need a buff.. I get hate messages all the time when I use the LH1 the fact they buffed it means I'm really going to get a lot of hate messages hahaha
0:24 Not only that, if you happen to be using KS23, you can instakill a full HP Light with a single shot and QM, without taking any damage! Such balance, amirite?
This is not the season for us light players it seems. I’ve been getting shit on more than usual. It’s deserved though, we got to run around with overpowered stun guns and ridiculous invisibility for too long. It’ll balance out eventually tho lol
Wait, wait, wait… you’re complaining about a pump action heavy shotgun that has projectiles NOT insta-killing a light, and requiring a QM on the the most mobile class in the game… lol I’m sorry I totally agree that the light should die from 1 shot and a qm.
@@JuiceManJ91no the problem is the Winch completely stops all your movement options, forces you into close range, and sets up the literal instakill. "Most mobile class" doesn't matter when it completely shuts down mobility.
@@BeefyCats I mean with the addition of the bow, I’d say lights are better than ever. The bow is so busted and I’ve been dying to it non stop lol they also buffed smoke grenades for whatever reason. They were already really strong. I won’t complain though cause I always carry smoke grenades anyway when I play light.
Winch was the first thing i unlocked. Disappointed in the Dual K’s dmg. New Players have to play 5 games of Terminal Attack before they can access the other game modes. Ooof.
6:35 You can't call something *FREE* when it requires purchase of the Battle Pass. Just because you get Multi Bucks from the Battle Pass does *NOT MAKE IT FREE!*
Agree, already is a tank with two shields and massive survivability. Basically bodies anything up close with charge and slam or sledgehammer. Now they give heavy an ability to negate height advantage from L and M, lame
6:44 Of course they give a skin for the smg i main and i can't just buy it with multibucks now hahahahah. Well it's not a complete loss, i got the battle pass to grind out and i already got somewhere around 10 levels.
It is! The devs want to tweak it for a second for better balancing and it might be out in season 4 or we might get luckily and midway through season 3!

Они как будто уволили команду баланса (или вовсе её не нанимали). Две катаны, мало того, что блокируют большую часть урона, так еще и дамажат в ответ (и немало так дамажат). Что за бред вообще? Сделали из сенсора движений +- хорошую вещь, однако с той же концепцией умудрились напрочь убить глитч мину. Серьезно: неужели нельзя было дать возможность этой мине работать в каком-то радиусе через стены? Сейчас это полноценный кусок херни, ибо для того, чтобы лучи начали действовать на врага - тот должен быть с лицевой стороны мины, при этом тебе нужно надеяться, что её не уничтожат двумя выстрелами или случайным взрывом, а также работает она всего в радиусе от силы 5 метров от себя. Это просто самый ужасный концепт, который мог прийти в голову. Эта мина как будто создавалась специально для новой карты, а именно для самой высокой там башни с трамплином, ведущим на верхний этаж. Только там она адекватно выполняет свою роль
lights can insta delete heavies now. that and if they are in danger, they can evade dash which is the most unpredictable special, get in a good rat spot, and be back in the fight a lot quicker than the heavy whille their rpg is on cooldown. 3 seconds is actually huge in this game. also, they nerfed LMGs to marshmellow shooters so close range is their best go to which is helpful with the claw
1. The spear can boost the power shift platform in any direction
2. The spear can launch explosive and fire barrels into space with its spin attack
I also noticed that the spear's secondary attack just launches turrets far away, idk if that was intentional or a bug tho
I think spear spin attack can move even enemy revive statues
Be careful with anything that seems unintentional. Exploits result in bans by Embark.
@@Space-_-Bender
oh no, i'm so scared
@@L3tsFUN ok
The game being more focused on casual play is definitely for the better if they eant to get the player base to grow
that would be a true statement if new players didnt have to play 5 rounds of terminal attack before they can access anything in the game
@@Epitome_ Oh god do they have to? Sounds like a great way to make people quit before they even start

You can use the winch claw to pull enemy holograms after they have been hit with the defibrillator
Game changer.. pulling them away from the teammate that just revived them and they have low health is a huge win.
That sounds like a bug rather than a feature
@@RuSsHeR1a win is a win 🤷🏽♂️ abuse it before they fix it
So disappointed they removed jump pad momentum, it was a great feature
It’s muscle memory to slide before jump pad
It still works for me when I try it out in the range, sliding makes me go further.
he phrased it weird, they DECREASED forward momentum, not removed
@@rewindd oh, big bet
I knew something was strange I thought I was using it wrong 🤦🏾😂
No forward momentum from jump pads when sliding is a downgrade, mechanic is dumped down now
really? that sucks
I don't remember seeing that in patch notes so I wonder if it's unintentional
Yea they make it extremely hard to main melee on medium for no reason

Glitch trap has quickly become a favorite gadget especially when paired with the dual swords
Now we can have RogHog in the finals.
Finally i can play as Rhubarb from my favorite game Slobberwatch 2!!!!!
My friend said the same thing lol
For the bow just witch to a gadget and back to cancel the weapon draw, its much faster than using meele
the claw is great to counter the dual swords from meds too, it stops them from deflecting when in the stun animation, enough to end their misery
World tour is so chaotic compared to season 2 rank
In a good or bad way? I haven’t played WT yet
A larger player base of casuals makes it wild, cashout spawns have been tweaked too it seems.
@@POTNomad My friends an I have fun with it, we're playing casual so there’s that :D
Definitely feels more forgiving as a light player

I havent played this game since it released is it still good? And will i have trouble getting the hang of it back?
Not really, not a huge learning curve same for me

do the glitch traps hit invis lights you mentioned that it needs line of sight
Another Tip: The glitch trap caused you to drop the key in Terminal Attack.
is TA only ranked in game now ? and CO is not ?
An alternative spear attack can move the cacheout!
hey ottr what brand of arm sleeve do you use? It looks really coolk
0:57 evaporate the gas? :D
