Had a co-worker check out the game the other day. He says that The Finals fixes a lot of the issues he's had with modern shooters and has been lookin for a game like this. Embark's done a helluva job this season, I'm once again super hyped to get more people into the game!
I'm glad they sponsored your video, I saw Ottr got a sponsored vid and my first thought was they better do the same for our steadfast content creators! Also, the hair is on point 😊
Keen to get your thoughts on the current CL-40. Personally I don't mind the buff if they make other adjustments: 1. Self damage needs to be higher, there's no way they should shoot at their feet and have little/no consequence compared to the damage reward. 2. Bring back more ways to help neutralise, like an APS buff or re-tune the cool down on mesh shield. A couple of things I noticed about spawns esp in ranked is after fighting for a cash box - a lot of the time the enemy we just wiped will spawn AHEAD of us pretty much directly on the cashout - essentially neutralising the advantage we gained by wiping them in the first place and allowing them to ambush as we come in for the plug. Definitely think spawns overall are better but some thing still needs to come to remove these smaller artifacts
@@badmushu i too felt that the CL-40 was hard to fight against as a medium or heavy as we have less mobility but aps turret being a direct counter i always have it in my reserve to counter them. I feel that more self damage and a little area reduction for the bombs
YES BRO. Ive been asking why buff the cl-40 n then nerf mesh shield to the ground its actually insane. Personally tho i dont think one bullet should do more damage then the RPG. Considering u have one shot on a cooldown and then 4 shots in the clip with a 2 second reload on the cl-40. I say nerf it already and put 5 in a clip + slightly longer reload. Also 100% agree on spawns, happens way too often on the new map.
@@mahetalat9944 i main light and at around 30 - 35k elo, I legit cannot approach people with the cl unless i run the lh1 and shoot from afar, which then their medium teammates simply heal them. Cloak is a must now which is regrettable as I love dash but playing light at the current meta is living hell
Agree with everything you said. ESPECIALLY the spawns, absolutely diabolical. You win a fight over the vault, you walk to the cashout, only to see the team you wiped, already on the cashout, ambush you and steal the box for the deposit bonus.
One thing i want is an option to remove always being the blue team. I know it's for players to not be confused but games like halo have never had an issue
Thank you for mentioning TDM. I find it somewhat frustrating that a lot of the community seems to want to exclude any sort of casual experience from the finals when they don’t realize those casuals are the ones that fuel a majority of these types of games. I understand the community wants a more competitive/esport/team based like game, but those people are the top of the pyramid and can’t exist (for long) without the larger casual player base to support such a scene.
People have really started learning the game and if you play a lot I would challenge you to mix up your normal play style. I mostly solo que and constantly am trying to adapt to what my random teammates are doing. Sometimes its no hope but sometimes you can find yourself learning a different tactic to playing that I personally have found really fun and challenging.
Im really enjoying this season but i do wish they added a couple more special events and specializations for light and medium. Other than that I truly love this game
looking at all the content that gets created over the finals lately we're definitely back. Also love the changes they made I had fun in s1-3 and even more in s4 now EDIT after i watched the full video: I agree with your points and even though Iam more than satisfied with s4 and the direction a few thinks can still be said: - the lets call it "progressing destruction" on fortune stadium is a little bit to much sometimes. I mean when you dont even destroy anything more or fundamental parts the buildings and all are feeling like they just keep destroying theirselves on their own. Sometimes it just suddenly collapse further and further without a reason - agree totally with the predictable spawnpoints also (and i dont know why) in world tour i get more 3rd partying on the maps then before but not in a ongoing annoying matter tbf - they need to go even deeper in the sponsor circuits and should definitely work on their idea to maybe show the highest ranked player in the match on the billboards on the regarding sponsor. Like if iam the highest ranked engimo player in the match my player card an name will be shown on the billboards in the engimo area etc. - some small quality of life changes for communication without VC would be nice. From saying simply no/disagree to a ping and preset comms for basic strategies like ("lets go below" or lets drop from high" in combination with pinging the cashout would be some ideas. Also please for the love of god add a message system in the main menu. I dont want to invite my friends that i only know inside of the finals directly into my lobby just because i see them "in menu" by accident but would love to first write a message that stays until read (!) and ask "open for a round?" just some small ideas and experiences but overall I cant stress enough how much this free2play game just keeps getting better
I actually quite like the progressive destruction and feel like it is what the finals really should be at. Its maybe slightly over the top but please embark don't take this to seriously. I love your idea with the billboards and the sponsors. Going further you could maybe have something at the beginning of a match that kinda does the same thing, like in Apex you could see who was coming off a win in the last round or whatever.
@@Major_K_2 oh don't get me wrong this was no criticism on the progressive destruction itself and I love the chaos. It's the heart of the finals. I just had a lot of games where the whole damn building, multiple floors, nearly all walls out of the blue just suddenly "exploded" it was fun but nobody could move in the remainings anymore. Your further suggestion for the recognition of good player is awesome too something like that would be nice to get a even bigger game show feeling
@@screwandwrenchrob4778 yes I had the "problem" just on the new map especially on the holtow tower and the engimo building by the stairs next to the big hall whre the cashout is often located
Amazing video as always, i agree with most points sed in the video, for me the new season is absolutely epic i very much like it the new weapons are amazing but in my opinion they need some balancing as well as the Cl-40 i fell like it needs some balancing after the new changes in the new season, the new map is absolutely amazing. A very solid video and an amazing season, nice 👍 ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic video as always, keep up the hard work, I do really feel like you represent the voice of the community for us so well and I am very grateful for that.
Ayyy thank you so much my guy! I think that it's an honor to be in this position because I interact with you all so much and I feel that passion from the community
15:31 this game 100% needs some sort of a welcome playlist to usher in new players into the game. Kind of disappointed this season didn't come with that.
I actually didn't think of that cause I always hated those types of things. I guess I didn't really think it was that hard of a game to learn but I forget the masses have been playing regurgitated call of duty and fortnite for years and we all forgot how to think for ourselves. What would a welcome playlist look like though?
@@Major_K_2 It is a mix of both imo. I will admit this game can be kinda hard to get into and I do remember struggling a bit when I first started playing. However the general FPS community can be some of the most braindead and stubborn groups of people alive. They constantly cry out for a fresh and unique FPS but when that said game comes, they automatically slander it for some of the stupidest reasons possible (I saw someone outright say they think this game's mid because it isn't generic enough????) I don't really know how a welcome playlist would actually work but i'd like it to basically be an slightly easier version of quick cash (shorter deposit times, faster respawn, able to switch between classes etc) but thats just me
@@DelScully I have friends who tried out this game and instantly quit because they got absolutely decimated by sweats in casual so no. This game still needs some sort of a welcome playlist
@TYP2K. I don't try to but that's me. I feel like almost every casual game I play I stomp on and almost feel bad. I try and only use it to warm up for ranked. I like the idea of yeah like cash out blitz. Maybe with more clear voice lines from June and Scotty telling them what to do while they play...or maybe that would be to much. Idk.
Great vid! The locked in sponsorship addition has added great appeal. Makes me feel like part of a team and also gives me motivation to help my team win. Even with the bugs and tuning that will come, this season is starting with a bang! 🎉
@@THiiXY Yes! Those little disclaimers and details, like you said, add that thoughtful, even laughable touch. Small things go a long way. I even feel more invested. I'm looking forward to what Emark is cooking this season and beyond. Have a great day ThiiXY, till your next video!
Another thing too, I REALLY hope next season they give the sponsors more personality than light medium heavy. All the personality they had built up was wiped away as soon as the rewards/identity was only light medium heavy, I was REALLY hoping to see faction wars that carried more meaning cause im a light Maine but was hyped for haltow, kinda feels like the results are already set in stone at least with non class specific factions it would give these faction wars some more meaning and reason to sign with other sponsors, I felt kinda forced to engimo so I hope embark really looks into that next season
season 4 has been great and the most fun so far! I really like the changes they made, the balancing feel much better than in the last two seasons! will definitely play more often again and maybe even try to grind ranked. Great video, as always!🙌
I only have two problems so far. Engimo drip isn't as peak as the other options, like it isn't a competition. Then no new light specialty! I was so hyped for it! We got dematerial, wench, and then nothing this time around. I know light isn't a fan favorite, but I'd like at least a hint of what it would be! As you can probably tell, I'm biased as a light main and proud owner of the Light Year achievement since season one lol.
I gotchu, I heard that they want to have a focus on balance this season which is why they didn't add any new mechanics (because a new tech can indirectly buff certain weapons etc)
One mode I’ve thought of from my years playing Destiny 2 is a 5v5 mode that has like an a,b,c point objective on the map and allowing those game modes for the casuals. I know they may be trying to steer away from that to separate themselves from other fps games but it really would be one of the more chill experiences where new players could try different load outs and experiment with how they play. Just my thoughts been loving the season so far though really hope it gets the love it deserves
Tbh i feel all weapons are right where they should be rn. If Embark nerfs the new weapons people will definitely leave the game again. They should start buffing the weaker weapons and leave the strong ones alone
I actually had a few new players that were good that played ranked with me in season 3. They quit because of how frustrating the 3v3v3v3 is in ranked cashout. I hope The Finals can get another ranked team vs team mode.
Rly rly rly love The Finals, online since release, for me its the best Fps shooter last 10 years!! Plx ThiiXY keep the Support for the game going!! Big love
i love the finals!! each team like the underdogs should have a unique color instead of your team defaulting to blue. Like the boundless could be purple, underdogs could be red
Just got my longest win streak in quick cash! Went 9 in a row with 2 randoms I had a good match with so we decided to squad up, this season has been great
I'm frustrated with the technical issues and performance of this game. Lots of issues with CPU utilisation, netcode and fps spikes and dips. I introduced it to my friends but most of them can't get 60fps with low settings and dedicated GPUs. I think they need to make the game more accessible and better to play on low end systems and do something about the netcode. Plz share this thread with them 🙏
what gpu are u using? I am using a measly 3060 ti and get 100-120 fps on 1440p ultrawide at high settings. Ive noticed lots of crashes since the update tho, and i never crashed in this game before it and now have about 5 times.
@@DelScully 4070+ i513400f. I'm playing on low settings 1440p and getting around 120fps but I'm mostly CPU bottlenecked and the engine is not stable enough for an online competitive experience
i don't like separate queues because queue times can get pretty long already. id' be cool if they had some kind of irl thing where you clip good plays and actual players vote on the flashiest ones though
Solid video but the light sword take is wild, really hoping the devs keep it how it is because I feel it’s fine, really not as oppressive as some make it out to be, that damn GL buff was wild, triple stack healing beam defib medium with all GL is more broken than a triple stack sword, especially when they get little to know self damage
I feel like s5 of this game after bo6 comes out, will be the big decider to see if I finally swap from cod after 10+ years, really excited for the rest of this season and the possible ltm they add
15:20 weirdly enough i started playing The Finals month ago, and it was instantly easy af for me, it clicked instantly for me, but now in S4 i feel so lost and as you mentioned confused lol
I do think TDM specifically is a much needed mode. Having a straight up tdm would be able to fill in a bunch of gaps that the finals still kind of has It would allow new players a place to engage with the game in a nicely familiar space. I know embark strive to be innovative with their modes. But familiarity can hook a player just as much. A TDM mode would also allow for new players the freedom to explore their loadouts and gadgets in an actual combat scenario. Without needing to worry about the objective and full teamplay. A TDM would also give casuals a great place to chill. And competitive players a good place to warm up and practice. Its odd to say that an objective based shooter needs a non objective based gameode. But adding one would provide a sense of completeness to the experence. Imo.
Even a TDM with some kind of twist that Embark may have, like I said it was interesting to see that players just want to take some stress out taking fights without needing to worry about the objectives, sure I guess PowerShift fills a lot of that "gap" but at the end of the day it's still objective based
WE NEED TDM!! I know the finals maps are way too big for just 5v5 so i have 3 ideas to make it work. 1) TDM W SOME TWEAKS •Rouge company has a game mode where the teams have a certain amount of lives, but theres also a point/hill to capture. Once u capture it, the other team loses one of their lives. Something similar could work with the finals forcing the teams to fight at a specific location. 2) SMALLER MAPS •Dropping 2-3 smaller maps for tdm could be game changing. They dont have to be anything crazy, Just copy and paste some buildings in a smaller arena. These smaller maps could also be used in terminal attack. 3)10v10!! •You could also just increase the group size for tdm. I think it could be a lil too hectic n possibly have server issues idrk though. Not my first choice but still could be fun.
Yeah I mean some changes could be done there but like I said just something that doesn't require you to really care about what you're doing - a chill way to fight vs other people without needing to worry about objectives etc. 10v10 would be carnage but I'm down for it haha
@@THiiXYtru i see the point in straying from objective. I think if that’s the case, smaller maps is the way to go. N use them for terminal attack as well cause i always felt like the maps r just too big for that game mode. Im down for 10v10 as well though. Give us a LTM EMBARK!!!
the game needs more options to play solos, duos and hopefully squads. To many mainstream streamers are saying this now because they need to be able to play a solo cash out tournament without the thought of a random not playing the objective. A map voting system that appears before the game would help people And the in game events need to be way better they all do the same thing which is destruction with different skins, you could have an in game event revolve around cash that could help the loosing teams etc
Yeah for sure bro, I 100% agree. Even for myself playing solo in ranked is a pretty hard experience, and you're about 20% less likely to win matches without a squad sooo... idk
I do really love this season! I do have some problems/issues but overall its a great season. If you read this cool but its just my thoughts about starts and things i like and dont and think needs changes. So i might type alot😂. For heavy i feel they got nerf alittle too hard now hear me out. I do feel heavy need some changes but the mesh shield(i am gonna call mesh shield MS) nerf was a little too much i think a better way to nerf it would have been make the open/closeing of the ability have a 1 second cooldown so if you pull the MS up and back down it'll only have a 1 second cooldown but for lets say every 100(or lower number thats adds a equal cooldown so like 10 would be 0.1) damage the MS takes while it is up add lets say 1 second is added to the cool down. So if you pull it out and it takes 400 damage and you put it away you will have 1 second from opening it plus 4 more seconds making you have a 5 second cooldown before bring it back out. Its just a thought iv had and i have had a lot of positive output on this idea from lots of people and other content creators so i hope any of you that take the time to read this has any feeback or thougths about this idea let me know! Ummm a really hot take i do have tho is that i feel this season was a little lack luster Gadget/Ability wise and i do like they weapons i think they are really fun i dont really like the M6 or the Pike too much the pike is really strong and good just not a weapon for me all tho i do love the LH1 with the sight anyways im getting off topic the heavy has 4 abilities and the Light and Medium only has 3 it would be nice if we would have gotten a new ability then next season a new ability for the last class that way it would balance out the number of abilities between the classes. Then i feel the light has a lot of Weapons/Gadgets that kinda do similar things but there is one that does it better and gets picked more. I would have liked to seen some new gadgets or some moved around like EX the tracking dart was on the medium then it was switched to the Light (For obvious reasons its where it should have been) but i really liked it on the medium tbh and i feel that now that the Medium has a DMR it should share the tracking dart with the light. And it would be nice to see a new gadget with heavy or medium or both (i think both would be cool) that could be a slow mo or ice/freeze gadget so when you throw it(or it could be a mine or have a mine alt like Gas) and when a enemy walks in it the character gets slowed down lots. Idk just a random gadget idea i just thought it. If anyone esle has any thougths or questions or any abilities/weapons/Gadgets ideas let me know id love to have some talks about it with anyone also i have more i could say but i think i typed way to much i been typing for about 5 mins soild nonstop 😂😂. And if i made any errors or mistakes ignore them 😮 if you read this reply reply reply😅 jk
Holy this was a wall or text but I don't have a tonne of time to reply to all of it so I'll just say that I didn't really talk about balancing because I am pretty sure they will do some further adjustments back in line over the next few weeks
@@THiiXY yea it wasn't meant to be read unless you want to lol and that's that balancing needs more thens adjustments tho they new abilitys/Gadgets/weapons also if I was talking it would seem as much but bc its typed its longer lol
@@THiiXY yeah maybe 😅 straight after watching this video I asked my friend to check the battle pass and tell me the number on his baseball skin he said 72
I’m in the top 6k and loving the game. Been playing since day one and it’s had its rough side. I still dislike what they did to the light class sniper but I’ve gotten used to it.
i hope in season five they change the "main" finals color. Like how in season two it was purple when CNS hacked the game. Red is iconic but sometimes change can be iconic in its own way
i think whatever sponsorship company wins the most fans by the end of this season, should take over the main color of the finals for the next season. If they do this every season, you can fight for what color main menus you want
Content wise the update is okay, new guns are fun and the new map is refreshing. To me it just doesn’t feel like enough to feel really exciting and new. No new games modes, no new specials, and no new gadgets is a real let down. Fortnite for example, always adds something new and crazy for each season that makes it fun and refreshing, given I don’t play Fortnite anymore but when I did, the fun part of it was all the crazy fun items they would add. If the goal is to bring to players to the game and keep the game refreshing to current players, they should focus on adding new crazy items they make people go, “wow that thing is insane and fun to use” and then they hop in a game and try again. What they did with this season is very good but, they should strive to do a bit more to make it more “fun”.
i’ve been kind of surprised by how well this season has been received. the sponsorships were a letdown for me and i don’t really care about any of them, and the new map is cool but i thought kyoto was much better. i was hoping for a new game mode and or LTM or something. it feels like the same old and i recently got into hunt showdown and even after the new season i feel like playing hunt more
@@onlinetoday840 that’s pretty much what I’m saying, idky people are focused on the “lore” of the game, when at the end of the day its a shooter that’s supposed to be fun and competitive. The sponsors really mean nothing to the game whatsoever and the things they added to the season are refreshing, after a few weeks the game will feel the same that it has been. No new modes and new specials/gadgets are a massive letdown to bringing excitement to the game. The content creators are meat riding that this is the greatest season ever that will bring so many new players to the game but I just don’t see it with the lack of content that they added.
@@chanceminer9842 ya i feel exactly the same i thought the sponsors would be cooler i thought instead of easy challenges with a 3rd battlepas it would be special challenges that might take all season that will reward items. it’s really just a third battle pass with the exact same challenges lmao
My Main Problem as a playstation Player is the matchmaking in ranked. I'm platinum 2 and I have to wait over 30 minutes in queue to find a lobby if I even find one. So my only option is crossplay but it's insanely hard to compete against PC players especially in those higher ranks. Also the point System is very weird. I play against a full platinum PC team in the final round and only get like 600 points for the win because the Match was determined "easy". It's just very frustrating because either you don't find a match, you find one and get demolished or you win a match and barely get any points.
so i gave up with the finals mid way through S3. thought the game was done for cos embark was doing bad thing after bad thing. i'm glad to have been proven wrong that there was no chance of having a comeback season. it feels SO FKING GOOD to have a majority of things changed for the better. still some bs dont get me wrong but that's with literally any game. the pike should be tuned down but keep the deagles and matter as it is.
Yeah, they simply stuck to simplicity - new actual guns, a solid map with a mix up (closer quarters) and some depth to the game (sponsors). I know some people wanted more like specs etc but if this season has a focus on balancing, then I'm happy for it.
@@THiiXY yeah agreed, I think it’s good for one season to not have new specs cause then it’ll give them more time to create a foundation with the current ones. That way when they add another they can focus on balancing it and not worrying about say the mesh suddenly becoming an issue
Dont forget newer players to always think outside the box! Get really creative and it rewards you heavily in this game! Don't worry about metas when you can out think the opponent on the fly!
That's also true as well! I like that if you don't have the best aim, you can still be a struggle to a player with a flamethrower, sword, sledge, GL etc. It's very well thought out in that sense to try include "all" types of players.
Although the ranked experience seems to be the best so far, there's just no lobbies for ranked in OCE servers. I understand this isn't an embark issue, but it is frustrating regardless
do you think that the finals should vault weapons? think balancing my get a bit lost if they keep adding 3 weapons every time, it's just going to be like call of duty were everyone is using the newest op gun of the season. just a thought thought though. also can you tell the devs to please add a dt11(over-under shotgun) into the game for medium? i think it would cool if medium could get a more risk for reward gun, plus i think with the assualt rifles are the only ones really being used right now and we can use some variety. it might bump up the ttk to high though. honestly i don't know XD
It's funny how many people say "how is a sword gonna stand up in a shooter game", then switch to "sword light is op". I mostly play sword light, and from my perspective it's pretty balanced. I find flame throwers op, but I'm sure they would disagree with that. It's all about adjusting your play style to the individual opponent. I've been playing since beta, all classes, and overall i think they have been doing an excellent job with balancing.
Sorry I was talking about the teleport glitch, maybe you didn't see but when you sword dash for us you teleport it's a bug that got fixed today actually - I was only saying for a new player sword is difficult to fight against that's all
Hello THiiXY. I want to make a video on this game, and Im wondering how you got the panoramic shots. i noticed for a custom game u need 2 people. did u have someone afk? i dont have anyone else that plays this game lol
Everything except the balance this season is amazing. But man, did they miss with this balance. They legit pointed out that light sucks ass and then destroyed the sniper for no reason. And then gave a better sniper to M. And didn't do shit about the healing circlejerk. Or the grenade launcer. Or the deags. Insane.
this might be the fastest player drop at start of season, its not even a week in and 10k players already done. the rank system will always be bad, the finals you have to play and win in 3 separate games against multiple teams where you have to think of a gameplan to deal with a certain team cause they can counter you by classes/skill ect, you make it to the next round and have to deal with a whole new set of enemies and contestants with different strengths to then once again try and win to make it to the next round where you finally are just vs one other team that can just pure counter you by contestant regardless of skill and then hey look at that 35 minutes wasted.. its not a good grinding experience and its not a fun experience either. sponsors don't really do anything, yes they give rewards, but that isn't a reason in any format for people to return and or pick up the game because of them. basically everything people had a problem with in season one apart from weapon balancing still exists in the game, and why the player #'s remain low, and even massive player drops a week after season start. there isn't much to be desired in terms of replay ability. the class balance is frustrating, the weapon balance is frustrating, the cashout tournament style is frustrating, the third partying is frustrating, the destruction is frustrating, and the list goes on, there are more frustrating things in the game than there are positive reasons to keep playing the game.
Sorry but I don't understand maybe because I'm not that good at the whole video thing but I'll just put points which I don't get; - player retention is the highest it's ever been this season, Embark just made a post about it's success - coming 2nd, 3rd or 4th in some tournaments you can actually gain elo instead of lose it so I don't know what you mean by "it's a waste of time" - isn't it meant to be a skill thing? - the new ranked system doesn't have 35 minutes wasted if you can still progress - they are focusing on balancing this season which is why they didn't add new gadgets or specs (because of the complexity) I don't want to sound mean or anything but a lot of these arguments don't really hold a lot of strength - I get the balancing thing but again if you could explain the points above I would love to see what you're saying
I have 2 thinks I want to be added to The Finals. 1. new Ability for light Sprint of Death - Faster Movement Speed + Bloodhound vision; 2. Improve performance;
@@THiiXY PC - Linux (same performance I had on windows) - AMD RX 7600 Graphics Card; AMD Ryzen 5 5600; It's not that bad but it can be better (I'am playing game with name satisfactory wheres lots of stuff going on in the same time and performance is batter (Satisfacotry is also on Unreal Engine 5)
I literally can’t find any games but quick cash no ones playing the game in OCE so it’s very difficult for me to play the game for more than an hour or 2
My only problem with the game is im too good at it so my friends feel alienated by me being put in their matches and getting all the kills or vice versa my lobbies they get bodied :(
My only complaint is the new weapons (especially the pyke) feel insanely overtuned. Deagles melt people it feels and the marksman rifle just feels unfair. But other than that love this season
Love the new season ngl. Buuuuut nerf that goddang grenade launcher on Medium.. Also ranked is a bit weird, our team was around 45k and our oppenents in the final was 80k
No doubt I'm enjoying everybit of new Season..but only sad thing is it's keep on stuttering and crashing on console platform. They still have to work on Optimization
@@THiiXY Xbox 😬 everyone's having same issue on Xbox. They included the fix in today's patch, hope it resolves the issue. Thiixy can u pls confirm this , doesn't matter WT or ranked.. both have same rewards? Gold Ak and Ruby Lewis. I'm not seeing any specific rewards for WT but I could see both WT n ranked have 24 stages and player card whichever is highest rank.
Games state of play is shit rn. They destroyed the spawns to try and de-incentivize people from third partying. All its done it make it take slightly longer to arrive at the third party making cleanup that much easier. Ontop of that if you have to coin you end up 170m away from your team thats fighting. . Had a game last night where 2 out of the three rivals teams just followed us from cashout to cashout while the 4th team had 3 completely uncontested cashouts. I was ranked at about 30k last season, now im 12k and still dropping. Not to mention there's so many smurfs who come in with 7000rs and 3 taps everyone with the DMR like yea ok. Hit reg is garbage still. Its doublely frustrating when you can see the blue aura impacts on their character models yet get 0 hit reg. On the complete other end of the spectrum youll run and close a door behind you just to die a second later. Its a damn good thing this crap hasnt been thrown into the esports world yet ....
either u are quiet about the M grenade launcher plague or u are the luckiest guy to not encounter it if they dont do something about it, and maybe that damn charge and slam hammer no skill, I dont think I will have any nerves left to explode in my neck

Ayyy well that makes me happy to hear they are into the game, some things in this game is super frustrating but overall I can't leave it, it's so fun.
Bro got the Embark Sponsor!!! So proud of you Thiixy, keep it up duder.
Thank you so much!!!
It was joever, but now we're so barack
I'm glad they sponsored your video, I saw Ottr got a sponsored vid and my first thought was they better do the same for our steadfast content creators!
Also, the hair is on point 😊
ahaha thank you bro! Hope you're doing well and enjoying Season 4 too!
Keen to get your thoughts on the current CL-40. Personally I don't mind the buff if they make other adjustments:
1. Self damage needs to be higher, there's no way they should shoot at their feet and have little/no consequence compared to the damage reward.
2. Bring back more ways to help neutralise, like an APS buff or re-tune the cool down on mesh shield.
A couple of things I noticed about spawns esp in ranked is after fighting for a cash box - a lot of the time the enemy we just wiped will spawn AHEAD of us pretty much directly on the cashout - essentially neutralising the advantage we gained by wiping them in the first place and allowing them to ambush as we come in for the plug. Definitely think spawns overall are better but some thing still needs to come to remove these smaller artifacts
@@badmushu i too felt that the CL-40 was hard to fight against as a medium or heavy as we have less mobility but aps turret being a direct counter i always have it in my reserve to counter them. I feel that more self damage and a little area reduction for the bombs
YES BRO. Ive been asking why buff the cl-40 n then nerf mesh shield to the ground its actually insane.
Personally tho i dont think one bullet should do more damage then the RPG. Considering u have one shot on a cooldown and then 4 shots in the clip with a 2 second reload on the cl-40.
I say nerf it already and put 5 in a clip + slightly longer reload.
Also 100% agree on spawns, happens way too often on the new map.
@@mahetalat9944 i main light and at around 30 - 35k elo, I legit cannot approach people with the cl unless i run the lh1 and shoot from afar, which then their medium teammates simply heal them. Cloak is a must now which is regrettable as I love dash but playing light at the current meta is living hell
Agree with everything you said. ESPECIALLY the spawns, absolutely diabolical. You win a fight over the vault, you walk to the cashout, only to see the team you wiped, already on the cashout, ambush you and steal the box for the deposit bonus.
@@mahetalat9944 APS can still counter one. But multiple and your done for... It's dead after 1 volley but 1v1 u can defs win easy against it
Ranked cashout is absolutely amazing…so many great matches❤
The tech for it is really cool this season, I'm very happy with the state of ranked
One thing i want is an option to remove always being the blue team. I know it's for players to not be confused but games like halo have never had an issue
For casting matches it would be nice because we found that everyone you're spectating is the "blue" team if you're looking at their screen.
100% agree, we already have a limited amount of team names, they could just give each team a unique color
@@shaun10767 THISSS!
I would like a "random" playmode where you play with what you get, this would make everyone learn to play all classes and handle different weapons 🙂
Thanks!
Yoooo! Dude thank you so much! I hope you continue to enjoy Season 4!!
Thank you for mentioning TDM. I find it somewhat frustrating that a lot of the community seems to want to exclude any sort of casual experience from the finals when they don’t realize those casuals are the ones that fuel a majority of these types of games. I understand the community wants a more competitive/esport/team based like game, but those people are the top of the pyramid and can’t exist (for long) without the larger casual player base to support such a scene.
the finals lobbies are getting really hard this season
I feel you man…soloQ ranked here😂
People have really started learning the game and if you play a lot I would challenge you to mix up your normal play style. I mostly solo que and constantly am trying to adapt to what my random teammates are doing. Sometimes its no hope but sometimes you can find yourself learning a different tactic to playing that I personally have found really fun and challenging.
@@PhrooberCZ it’s alright I can get to the second or third knockout round consistently, while my kd is 1.0 or below it’s decently challenging
@@PhrooberCZ same
Yeah even I'm struggling this season but I think it's mainly because I'm solo queuing haha
Im really enjoying this season but i do wish they added a couple more special events and specializations for light and medium. Other than that I truly love this game
looking at all the content that gets created over the finals lately we're definitely back. Also love the changes they made I had fun in s1-3 and even more in s4 now
EDIT after i watched the full video:
I agree with your points and even though Iam more than satisfied with s4 and the direction a few thinks can still be said:
- the lets call it "progressing destruction" on fortune stadium is a little bit to much sometimes. I mean when you dont even destroy anything more or fundamental parts the buildings and all are feeling like they just keep destroying theirselves on their own. Sometimes it just suddenly collapse further and further without a reason
- agree totally with the predictable spawnpoints also (and i dont know why) in world tour i get more 3rd partying on the maps then before but not in a ongoing annoying matter tbf
- they need to go even deeper in the sponsor circuits and should definitely work on their idea to maybe show the highest ranked player in the match on the billboards on the regarding sponsor. Like if iam the highest ranked engimo player in the match my player card an name will be shown on the billboards in the engimo area etc.
- some small quality of life changes for communication without VC would be nice. From saying simply no/disagree to a ping and preset comms for basic strategies like ("lets go below" or lets drop from high" in combination with pinging the cashout would be some ideas. Also please for the love of god add a message system in the main menu. I dont want to invite my friends that i only know inside of the finals directly into my lobby just because i see them "in menu" by accident but would love to first write a message that stays until read (!) and ask "open for a round?"
just some small ideas and experiences but overall I cant stress enough how much this free2play game just keeps getting better
I actually quite like the progressive destruction and feel like it is what the finals really should be at. Its maybe slightly over the top but please embark don't take this to seriously. I love your idea with the billboards and the sponsors. Going further you could maybe have something at the beginning of a match that kinda does the same thing, like in Apex you could see who was coming off a win in the last round or whatever.
@@Major_K_2 oh don't get me wrong this was no criticism on the progressive destruction itself and I love the chaos. It's the heart of the finals. I just had a lot of games where the whole damn building, multiple floors, nearly all walls out of the blue just suddenly "exploded" it was fun but nobody could move in the remainings anymore.
Your further suggestion for the recognition of good player is awesome too something like that would be nice to get a even bigger game show feeling
@@grudat2431 Yeah, I dont think theres any problems other than the new map, I feel the buildings like holtow tower are too weak.
@@screwandwrenchrob4778 yes I had the "problem" just on the new map especially on the holtow tower and the engimo building by the stairs next to the big hall whre the cashout is often located
N CAN WE GET SAVED OUTFITS PLEASE
Amazing video as always, i agree with most points sed in the video, for me the new season is absolutely epic i very much like it the new weapons are amazing but in my opinion they need some balancing as well as the Cl-40 i fell like it needs some balancing after the new changes in the new season, the new map is absolutely amazing. A very solid video and an amazing season, nice 👍 ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic video as always, keep up the hard work, I do really feel like you represent the voice of the community for us so well and I am very grateful for that.
Ayyy thank you so much my guy! I think that it's an honor to be in this position because I interact with you all so much and I feel that passion from the community
We need Rush and Capture the Flag
CTF would be interesting, could do it with the cashout box?
@@THiiXY It could, I guess it depends on the devs vision for the game and if every asset/gamemode needs to be focused around gaining cash.
15:31 this game 100% needs some sort of a welcome playlist to usher in new players into the game. Kind of disappointed this season didn't come with that.
I actually didn't think of that cause I always hated those types of things. I guess I didn't really think it was that hard of a game to learn but I forget the masses have been playing regurgitated call of duty and fortnite for years and we all forgot how to think for ourselves. What would a welcome playlist look like though?
@@Major_K_2 It is a mix of both imo. I will admit this game can be kinda hard to get into and I do remember struggling a bit when I first started playing. However the general FPS community can be some of the most braindead and stubborn groups of people alive. They constantly cry out for a fresh and unique FPS but when that said game comes, they automatically slander it for some of the stupidest reasons possible (I saw someone outright say they think this game's mid because it isn't generic enough????)
I don't really know how a welcome playlist would actually work but i'd like it to basically be an slightly easier version of quick cash (shorter deposit times, faster respawn, able to switch between classes etc) but thats just me
just play casual lmao... Or powershift.
@@DelScully I have friends who tried out this game and instantly quit because they got absolutely decimated by sweats in casual so no. This game still needs some sort of a welcome playlist
@TYP2K. I don't try to but that's me. I feel like almost every casual game I play I stomp on and almost feel bad. I try and only use it to warm up for ranked. I like the idea of yeah like cash out blitz. Maybe with more clear voice lines from June and Scotty telling them what to do while they play...or maybe that would be to much. Idk.
Great vid! The locked in sponsorship addition has added great appeal. Makes me feel like part of a team and also gives me motivation to help my team win. Even with the bugs and tuning that will come, this season is starting with a bang! 🎉
For sure! It kind of felt like some factions thing or something, even the small touch like the disclaimers on the signature page is just so funny :D
@@THiiXY Yes! Those little disclaimers and details, like you said, add that thoughtful, even laughable touch. Small things go a long way. I even feel more invested. I'm looking forward to what Emark is cooking this season and beyond. Have a great day ThiiXY, till your next video!
Thiixy is back!!!
Ayyeeeoooo!!!
Happy for your mic upgrade and happy for you in general hahaha
ahaha thank you I appreciate it a tonne :D Hope you're enjoying Season 4!!
Another great video Thix, keep it up 😤
Thank you so much!! I have the vlog coming soon I just want to make it REALLY good :D
Season 4 made me come back to The Finals and I've been loving it! No other fps comes close in terms of fun.
So excited about what’s to come with The Finals!
For sure! We have a starting foundation now for ranked, now we can move onto other things and really start to build out the game as a title :)
@@THiiXY 100%
YESS WE AREEEEE
LESS GOOOO
Another thing too, I REALLY hope next season they give the sponsors more personality than light medium heavy.
All the personality they had built up was wiped away as soon as the rewards/identity was only light medium heavy, I was REALLY hoping to see faction wars that carried more meaning cause im a light Maine but was hyped for haltow, kinda feels like the results are already set in stone at least with non class specific factions it would give these faction wars some more meaning and reason to sign with other sponsors, I felt kinda forced to engimo so I hope embark really looks into that next season
season 4 has been great and the most fun so far! I really like the changes they made, the balancing feel much better than in the last two seasons!
will definitely play more often again and maybe even try to grind ranked.
Great video, as always!🙌
For sure it's definitely refreshing - thanks for watching too!
I only have two problems so far. Engimo drip isn't as peak as the other options, like it isn't a competition. Then no new light specialty! I was so hyped for it! We got dematerial, wench, and then nothing this time around. I know light isn't a fan favorite, but I'd like at least a hint of what it would be! As you can probably tell, I'm biased as a light main and proud owner of the Light Year achievement since season one lol.
I gotchu, I heard that they want to have a focus on balance this season which is why they didn't add any new mechanics (because a new tech can indirectly buff certain weapons etc)
One mode I’ve thought of from my years playing Destiny 2 is a 5v5 mode that has like an a,b,c point objective on the map and allowing those game modes for the casuals. I know they may be trying to steer away from that to separate themselves from other fps games but it really would be one of the more chill experiences where new players could try different load outs and experiment with how they play. Just my thoughts been loving the season so far though really hope it gets the love it deserves
I was hoping for Vegas to be in the power shift rotation🥺
SAME!! Where is it D:
Tbh i feel all weapons are right where they should be rn. If Embark nerfs the new weapons people will definitely leave the game again. They should start buffing the weaker weapons and leave the strong ones alone
Yes except sword and cl-40
Maybe the pike
I actually had a few new players that were good that played ranked with me in season 3. They quit because of how frustrating the 3v3v3v3 is in ranked cashout.
I hope The Finals can get another ranked team vs team mode.
Rly rly rly love The Finals, online since release, for me its the best Fps shooter last 10 years!! Plx ThiiXY keep the Support for the game going!! Big love
You got it bro! Thanks for playing the game with all of us too!
The time to get into a match takes less that a second; this game really is getting popularity
i love the finals!!
each team like the underdogs should have a unique color instead of your team defaulting to blue. Like the boundless could be purple, underdogs could be red
loved this game since season 1
Ayy, yes even since Season 1 it's come a long way
Just got my longest win streak in quick cash! Went 9 in a row with 2 randoms I had a good match with so we decided to squad up, this season has been great
Yooooo damnn haha nice work :D
I'm frustrated with the technical issues and performance of this game. Lots of issues with CPU utilisation, netcode and fps spikes and dips. I introduced it to my friends but most of them can't get 60fps with low settings and dedicated GPUs. I think they need to make the game more accessible and better to play on low end systems and do something about the netcode. Plz share this thread with them 🙏
what gpu are u using? I am using a measly 3060 ti and get 100-120 fps on 1440p ultrawide at high settings.
Ive noticed lots of crashes since the update tho, and i never crashed in this game before it and now have about 5 times.
@@DelScully 4070+ i513400f. I'm playing on low settings 1440p and getting around 120fps but I'm mostly CPU bottlenecked and the engine is not stable enough for an online competitive experience
Let’s goooo !!! 😎👾
We’re so back
Embark is fire, can wait to see what the cook up overtime, I for one want to see a big battle mode and some small arena modes for some casual fun,
100% just overall having a mix between messing around and competing = perfect recipe for this game
i don't like separate queues because queue times can get pretty long already. id' be cool if they had some kind of irl thing where you clip good plays and actual players vote on the flashiest ones though
Solid video but the light sword take is wild, really hoping the devs keep it how it is because I feel it’s fine, really not as oppressive as some make it out to be, that damn GL buff was wild, triple stack healing beam defib medium with all GL is more broken than a triple stack sword, especially when they get little to know self damage
I was talking about the dash sword teleport bug, which they fixed today
yeah I peeped that one this morning, pretty dope fix
I feel like s5 of this game after bo6 comes out, will be the big decider to see if I finally swap from cod after 10+ years, really excited for the rest of this season and the possible ltm they add
For sure bro let's see what happens
You dont have to swap, play both. They are just games...not girls u know.
15:20 weirdly enough i started playing The Finals month ago, and it was instantly easy af for me, it clicked instantly for me, but now in S4 i feel so lost and as you mentioned confused lol
S4 is 🔥
Hearing Scotty's and june's still have static.. I am super excited to see the return of CNS
Someone said that it would be crazy for a sponsor to have been masked as CNS (for example ENGIMO) that would be a pretty cool lore twist :)
Just watched The Finals ad before this video
I hope you are enjoying Season 4
@@THiiXY of course. Goo strat is kicking off again 💪
I 100% agree with Thixy in this point 15:36
Love your videos
Thank you!!
I do think TDM specifically is a much needed mode.
Having a straight up tdm would be able to fill in a bunch of gaps that the finals still kind of has
It would allow new players a place to engage with the game in a nicely familiar space. I know embark strive to be innovative with their modes. But familiarity can hook a player just as much. A TDM mode would also allow for new players the freedom to explore their loadouts and gadgets in an actual combat scenario. Without needing to worry about the objective and full teamplay.
A TDM would also give casuals a great place to chill. And competitive players a good place to warm up and practice.
Its odd to say that an objective based shooter needs a non objective based gameode. But adding one would provide a sense of completeness to the experence. Imo.
Even a TDM with some kind of twist that Embark may have, like I said it was interesting to see that players just want to take some stress out taking fights without needing to worry about the objectives, sure I guess PowerShift fills a lot of that "gap" but at the end of the day it's still objective based
WE NEED TDM!! I know the finals maps are way too big for just 5v5 so i have 3 ideas to make it work.
1) TDM W SOME TWEAKS
•Rouge company has a game mode where the teams have a certain amount of lives, but theres also a point/hill to capture. Once u capture it, the other team loses one of their lives. Something similar could work with the finals forcing the teams to fight at a specific location.
2) SMALLER MAPS
•Dropping 2-3 smaller maps for tdm could be game changing. They dont have to be anything crazy, Just copy and paste some buildings in a smaller arena. These smaller maps could also be used in terminal attack.
3)10v10!!
•You could also just increase the group size for tdm. I think it could be a lil too hectic n possibly have server issues idrk though. Not my first choice but still could be fun.
Yeah I mean some changes could be done there but like I said just something that doesn't require you to really care about what you're doing - a chill way to fight vs other people without needing to worry about objectives etc.
10v10 would be carnage but I'm down for it haha
@@THiiXYtru i see the point in straying from objective. I think if that’s the case, smaller maps is the way to go. N use them for terminal attack as well cause i always felt like the maps r just too big for that game mode.
Im down for 10v10 as well though. Give us a LTM EMBARK!!!
thiix I beg you drop the sauce on the live wallpaper of the cashout you use throughout the video, I NEED it
I'll do a twitter post on it sure:)
the game needs more options to play solos, duos and hopefully squads. To many mainstream streamers are saying this now because they need to be able to play a solo cash out tournament without the thought of a random not playing the objective.
A map voting system that appears before the game would help people
And the in game events need to be way better they all do the same thing which is destruction with different skins, you could have an in game event revolve around cash that could help the loosing teams etc
Yeah for sure bro, I 100% agree. Even for myself playing solo in ranked is a pretty hard experience, and you're about 20% less likely to win matches without a squad sooo... idk
I do really love this season! I do have some problems/issues but overall its a great season.
If you read this cool but its just my thoughts about starts and things i like and dont and think needs changes. So i might type alot😂.
For heavy i feel they got nerf alittle too hard now hear me out. I do feel heavy need some changes but the mesh shield(i am gonna call mesh shield MS) nerf was a little too much i think a better way to nerf it would have been make the open/closeing of the ability have a 1 second cooldown so if you pull the MS up and back down it'll only have a 1 second cooldown but for lets say every 100(or lower number thats adds a equal cooldown so like 10 would be 0.1) damage the MS takes while it is up add lets say 1 second is added to the cool down. So if you pull it out and it takes 400 damage and you put it away you will have 1 second from opening it plus 4 more seconds making you have a 5 second cooldown before bring it back out. Its just a thought iv had and i have had a lot of positive output on this idea from lots of people and other content creators so i hope any of you that take the time to read this has any feeback or thougths about this idea let me know! Ummm a really hot take i do have tho is that i feel this season was a little lack luster Gadget/Ability wise and i do like they weapons i think they are really fun i dont really like the M6 or the Pike too much the pike is really strong and good just not a weapon for me all tho i do love the LH1 with the sight anyways im getting off topic the heavy has 4 abilities and the Light and Medium only has 3 it would be nice if we would have gotten a new ability then next season a new ability for the last class that way it would balance out the number of abilities between the classes. Then i feel the light has a lot of Weapons/Gadgets that kinda do similar things but there is one that does it better and gets picked more. I would have liked to seen some new gadgets or some moved around like EX the tracking dart was on the medium then it was switched to the Light (For obvious reasons its where it should have been) but i really liked it on the medium tbh and i feel that now that the Medium has a DMR it should share the tracking dart with the light. And it would be nice to see a new gadget with heavy or medium or both (i think both would be cool) that could be a slow mo or ice/freeze gadget so when you throw it(or it could be a mine or have a mine alt like Gas) and when a enemy walks in it the character gets slowed down lots. Idk just a random gadget idea i just thought it. If anyone esle has any thougths or questions or any abilities/weapons/Gadgets ideas let me know id love to have some talks about it with anyone also i have more i could say but i think i typed way to much i been typing for about 5 mins soild nonstop 😂😂. And if i made any errors or mistakes ignore them 😮 if you read this reply reply reply😅 jk
Holy this was a wall or text but I don't have a tonne of time to reply to all of it so I'll just say that I didn't really talk about balancing because I am pretty sure they will do some further adjustments back in line over the next few weeks
@@THiiXY yea it wasn't meant to be read unless you want to lol and that's that balancing needs more thens adjustments tho they new abilitys/Gadgets/weapons also if I was talking it would seem as much but bc its typed its longer lol
Wait those numbers actually mean something? I have 69 I thought Embark was just having a laugh 😂
ahaha omg you have a rare account I guess lol

I’m in the top 6k and loving the game. Been playing since day one and it’s had its rough side. I still dislike what they did to the light class sniper but I’ve gotten used to it.
Ayyy glad to hear, yea they will have some frustrating changes but we gotta adapt
i hope in season five they change the "main" finals color. Like how in season two it was purple when CNS hacked the game. Red is iconic but sometimes change can be iconic in its own way
i think whatever sponsorship company wins the most fans by the end of this season, should take over the main color of the finals for the next season. If they do this every season, you can fight for what color main menus you want
Ayy that's kind of a cool idea too :D
@@THiiXY thanks man
Villafye uses Marcos with a dmr that’s how he got diamond
Content wise the update is okay, new guns are fun and the new map is refreshing. To me it just doesn’t feel like enough to feel really exciting and new. No new games modes, no new specials, and no new gadgets is a real let down. Fortnite for example, always adds something new and crazy for each season that makes it fun and refreshing, given I don’t play Fortnite anymore but when I did, the fun part of it was all the crazy fun items they would add. If the goal is to bring to players to the game and keep the game refreshing to current players, they should focus on adding new crazy items they make people go, “wow that thing is insane and fun to use” and then they hop in a game and try again. What they did with this season is very good but, they should strive to do a bit more to make it more “fun”.
i’ve been kind of surprised by how well this season has been received. the sponsorships were a letdown for me and i don’t really care about any of them, and the new map is cool but i thought kyoto was much better. i was hoping for a new game mode and or LTM or something. it feels like the same old and i recently got into hunt showdown and even after the new season i feel like playing hunt more
@@onlinetoday840 that’s pretty much what I’m saying, idky people are focused on the “lore” of the game, when at the end of the day its a shooter that’s supposed to be fun and competitive. The sponsors really mean nothing to the game whatsoever and the things they added to the season are refreshing, after a few weeks the game will feel the same that it has been. No new modes and new specials/gadgets are a massive letdown to bringing excitement to the game. The content creators are meat riding that this is the greatest season ever that will bring so many new players to the game but I just don’t see it with the lack of content that they added.
Istg the new map feels like the backrooms, tryna navigate that place is miserable
@@chanceminer9842 ya i feel exactly the same i thought the sponsors would be cooler i thought instead of easy challenges with a 3rd battlepas it would be special challenges that might take all season that will reward items. it’s really just a third battle pass with the exact same challenges lmao
Raaaah we back
for sure bro!
My Main Problem as a playstation Player is the matchmaking in ranked. I'm platinum 2 and I have to wait over 30 minutes in queue to find a lobby if I even find one. So my only option is crossplay but it's insanely hard to compete against PC players especially in those higher ranks. Also the point System is very weird. I play against a full platinum PC team in the final round and only get like 600 points for the win because the Match was determined "easy". It's just very frustrating because either you don't find a match, you find one and get demolished or you win a match and barely get any points.
so i gave up with the finals mid way through S3. thought the game was done for cos embark was doing bad thing after bad thing. i'm glad to have been proven wrong that there was no chance of having a comeback season. it feels SO FKING GOOD to have a majority of things changed for the better. still some bs dont get me wrong but that's with literally any game. the pike should be tuned down but keep the deagles and matter as it is.
9:09 I got the number 89 on my cosmetics too :D What a weird coincidence
Yoooo! Welcome fellow 89 :D
@THiiXY Thanks bro 🙏
Cl40 for life
It’s a really good season
Yeah, they simply stuck to simplicity - new actual guns, a solid map with a mix up (closer quarters) and some depth to the game (sponsors). I know some people wanted more like specs etc but if this season has a focus on balancing, then I'm happy for it.
@@THiiXY yeah agreed, I think it’s good for one season to not have new specs cause then it’ll give them more time to create a foundation with the current ones. That way when they add another they can focus on balancing it and not worrying about say the mesh suddenly becoming an issue
To the sponsors part: You add a framework first THEN you expand upon it. IE LET EM COOK! XD
LETTT THEEEM COOOOOK
Dont forget newer players to always think outside the box! Get really creative and it rewards you heavily in this game!
Don't worry about metas when you can out think the opponent on the fly!
lemme see you outwit a dashing m10 while you're stunned.
That's also true as well! I like that if you don't have the best aim, you can still be a struggle to a player with a flamethrower, sword, sledge, GL etc. It's very well thought out in that sense to try include "all" types of players.

For alot of us, we're back. But for some of us, we never left 😎
Hell yea :D
I am only watching for the sad cat
do you think that the finals should vault weapons? think balancing my get a bit lost if they keep adding 3 weapons every time, it's just going to be like call of duty were everyone is using the newest op gun of the season. just a thought thought though. also can you tell the devs to please add a dt11(over-under shotgun) into the game for medium? i think it would cool if medium could get a more risk for reward gun, plus i think with the assualt rifles are the only ones really being used right now and we can use some variety. it might bump up the ttk to high though. honestly i don't know XD
It's funny how many people say "how is a sword gonna stand up in a shooter game", then switch to "sword light is op".
I mostly play sword light, and from my perspective it's pretty balanced. I find flame throwers op, but I'm sure they would disagree with that.
It's all about adjusting your play style to the individual opponent.
I've been playing since beta, all classes, and overall i think they have been doing an excellent job with balancing.
Sorry I was talking about the teleport glitch, maybe you didn't see but when you sword dash for us you teleport it's a bug that got fixed today actually - I was only saying for a new player sword is difficult to fight against that's all

Yeah I have a laptop and 2nd PC running the game and then my game PC as spectator :)
Everything except the balance this season is amazing. But man, did they miss with this balance. They legit pointed out that light sucks ass and then destroyed the sniper for no reason. And then gave a better sniper to M. And didn't do shit about the healing circlejerk. Or the grenade launcer. Or the deags. Insane.

Powershift is popular so I don't understand what you mean, if you're a different region why try to make less modes for other people?
nice video, but whats the big baba-booboo mic?? it looks sick :D
just realised that you've had that microphone all this time, im blind :DD
Haha yes always had it :D
It’s never been less jover!
this might be the fastest player drop at start of season, its not even a week in and 10k players already done. the rank system will always be bad, the finals you have to play and win in 3 separate games against multiple teams where you have to think of a gameplan to deal with a certain team cause they can counter you by classes/skill ect, you make it to the next round and have to deal with a whole new set of enemies and contestants with different strengths to then once again try and win to make it to the next round where you finally are just vs one other team that can just pure counter you by contestant regardless of skill and then hey look at that 35 minutes wasted.. its not a good grinding experience and its not a fun experience either.
sponsors don't really do anything, yes they give rewards, but that isn't a reason in any format for people to return and or pick up the game because of them.
basically everything people had a problem with in season one apart from weapon balancing still exists in the game, and why the player #'s remain low, and even massive player drops a week after season start. there isn't much to be desired in terms of replay ability. the class balance is frustrating, the weapon balance is frustrating, the cashout tournament style is frustrating, the third partying is frustrating, the destruction is frustrating, and the list goes on, there are more frustrating things in the game than there are positive reasons to keep playing the game.
Sorry but I don't understand maybe because I'm not that good at the whole video thing but I'll just put points which I don't get;
- player retention is the highest it's ever been this season, Embark just made a post about it's success
- coming 2nd, 3rd or 4th in some tournaments you can actually gain elo instead of lose it so I don't know what you mean by "it's a waste of time" - isn't it meant to be a skill thing?
- the new ranked system doesn't have 35 minutes wasted if you can still progress
- they are focusing on balancing this season which is why they didn't add new gadgets or specs (because of the complexity)
I don't want to sound mean or anything but a lot of these arguments don't really hold a lot of strength - I get the balancing thing but again if you could explain the points above I would love to see what you're saying
Very refreshing. Even if the new weapons are on the overtuned side. I’d rather them be released strong than weak and embarrassing, cough 93r
Yeah, there will be some balancing now they have more data on them
The Finals is the best FPS in years and I love it.
Ayeee for sure glad to still see you here!
I have 2 thinks I want to be added to The Finals.
1. new Ability for light Sprint of Death - Faster Movement Speed + Bloodhound vision;
2. Improve performance;
If performance isn't the best for you - may I ask what specs you have, console or PC etc
@@THiiXY PC - Linux (same performance I had on windows) - AMD RX 7600 Graphics Card; AMD Ryzen 5 5600;
It's not that bad but it can be better (I'am playing game with name satisfactory wheres lots of stuff going on in the same time and performance is batter (Satisfacotry is also on Unreal Engine 5)
They shouldnt nuff the weapons. They should buff other weapons up to their standard
All my Friends said, they killed the lights, it that true?
No that suite the opposite
nah the new gun for heavy is op but besides that they nerfed heavy hard and they are much less tanky now
which makes playing light easier imo
they dont call it the worlds greatest gameshow for no reason
That's right, Scotty!
I literally can’t find any games but quick cash no ones playing the game in OCE so it’s very difficult for me to play the game for more than an hour or 2
The new weapon for The midium (pike) needs To be nerfd its so op
My only problem with the game is im too good at it so my friends feel alienated by me being put in their matches and getting all the kills or vice versa my lobbies they get bodied :(
gene diff
Don't nerf my sword
:D enjoy it!
My only complaint is the new weapons (especially the pyke) feel insanely overtuned. Deagles melt people it feels and the marksman rifle just feels unfair. But other than that love this season
Better it being like that vs season 2 weapons being so undertuned that they didn't have the best data on how they were used etc
Love the new season ngl. Buuuuut nerf that goddang grenade launcher on Medium.. Also ranked is a bit weird, our team was around 45k and our oppenents in the final was 80k
100% I didn't really speak on nerfs because I know that there's going to be a lot of re-shuffling throughout the season.
No doubt I'm enjoying everybit of new Season..but only sad thing is it's keep on stuttering and crashing on console platform. They still have to work on Optimization
Ahhh damn really? What console? Glad you're enjoying the new season!
@@THiiXY Xbox 😬 everyone's having same issue on Xbox. They included the fix in today's patch, hope it resolves the issue.
Thiixy can u pls confirm this , doesn't matter WT or ranked.. both have same rewards? Gold Ak and Ruby Lewis. I'm not seeing any specific rewards for WT but I could see both WT n ranked have 24 stages and player card whichever is highest rank.
Games state of play is shit rn. They destroyed the spawns to try and de-incentivize people from third partying. All its done it make it take slightly longer to arrive at the third party making cleanup that much easier. Ontop of that if you have to coin you end up 170m away from your team thats fighting. . Had a game last night where 2 out of the three rivals teams just followed us from cashout to cashout while the 4th team had 3 completely uncontested cashouts. I was ranked at about 30k last season, now im 12k and still dropping. Not to mention there's so many smurfs who come in with 7000rs and 3 taps everyone with the DMR like yea ok. Hit reg is garbage still. Its doublely frustrating when you can see the blue aura impacts on their character models yet get 0 hit reg. On the complete other end of the spectrum youll run and close a door behind you just to die a second later. Its a damn good thing this crap hasnt been thrown into the esports world yet ....
either u are quiet about the M grenade launcher plague or u are the luckiest guy to not encounter it
if they dont do something about it, and maybe that damn charge and slam hammer no skill, I dont think I will have any nerves left to explode in my neck
Why does it feel like eveey gun can 2-3 tap rn...
buff heavy spear
