    I understand that I’m in the minority on this, but I hope they don’t change it this season. As a competitive minded player who hates TA, there hasn’t been anything fun to grind for this season. Emerald, with the vast amount of wins that it requires is the first grind I’ve been excited about all season. I think some level of exclusivity is a good thing with cosmetics. If I see an emerald AK next season, I’m gonna automatically be impressed because I know what it took. I might not ever get there myself (currently halfway to Emerald 2) and that’s okay. Because that’s the point, it’s supposed to be a really cool reward for a really hard task. Now, in terms of next season, I hope it’s not like this. But with this season being such a casual focused season, I really like World Tour right now.

    It takes 58 tournament wins to get 1500 points, formally 75 wins when it was 20 points per tourny. So having to get 75 tournament wins again means that getting to emerald is the halfway mark.

    As a soloq player i felt insanely dissapointed when emerald came out. I need to get 2 tourney wins each day but that is not happening. So im missing out on the emerald AK.
    Ive been playing since season1 and have been a really dedicated player. Im dumping alot of hours into this game daily and then not being able to go for the emerald ak feels really bad. Somewhere i have still a slither of hope that they might change it, but im scared they wont.
    Overall, really dissapointed by Embark. I dont get dissapointed easily by this dev team, but this is one of the 2 times they dissapointed me; the lh1 buff in early season3 and the release of the emerald rank progression.

    As a casual who plays to unlock cosmetics; I have a problem with this trend of locking LTE cosmetics behind playing the WT. I buy the BP every season, but I'm always thrown off by the difference in XP gain between playing however I want and playing to the contracts' restrictions.
    I like playing TF but I don't like competing in it, I find myself not enjoying the game at all when I play exclusively to win or perform flawlessly, to a point where I'm willing to rage-quit the match regardless of it's penalty as I'll close the game altogether.
    It seems completely contradictory to reward cosmetics to competitive players who care more about the gameplay to a point where they grind for hours on their own loadouts, likely never changing it up in order to beat contracts and so likely not gaining nearly as much XP to quickly level the battlepass and ultimately not gaining cosmetics as efficiently to begin with.
    Point being, the players who are likely not busy perfecting their playstyle, who are more likely to constantly alter it to better unlock cosmetics, who inherently care more about the cosmetics than they do for a rank, should not be forced, (On top of already being made to play the game during a limited time frame) to play the game in a competitive mode and risk their own or their randomly picked teammates' sanities getting put into a matchup they never trained for.

    • @Fiendir
      @Fiendir หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I'm a "cosmetics is the true endgame" enjoyer too, and I've gotta say this is nothing different from most games. These competitive cosmetics are literally base guns with a shiny shader on it that looks more garish than actually cool, much like CoD has done for years.
      Competetive players might not care about the actual style of these cosmetics, but the bragging rights that come with it. Don't discount the psychological effect of seeing you're matched up with an emerald AKM, it'd be enough to mess most up a bit if you know the type of dedication + skill that takes to achieve.
      As long as TF keeps stuff like the community events and other collectibles as achievable as they currently are, I think Embark is hitting a great balance so far.

    Choosing Emerald rewards would be great. The fixed order is very arbitrary for such a committed metric of gross tournament wins.
    I'm one of those folks that is very happy with this Emerald situation because it means I can finally play Cashout (the main game mode), and it is more likely to be competitive. I've had more enjoyable games since Emerald has launched and the sweats have come out to play. :) I'm not really concerned about cosmetics in the end, I just want an engaging experience when I pick up the game.
    Praying to Embark for S4 to not be as boring as S3 was from a competitive perspective.

    Even though I'm a serial cosmetic collector in any game I play (fashion is my true endgame), I still have no problem accepting that all these diamond/ruby/emerald/etc skins are out of my reach.
    What I really do have a problem with is Embark putting emerald into world tour, because it's completely ruined the mode for me. It was a nice play to hop in and play some more focused Cashout without having to ranked sweat, but now it's genuinely worse than ranked ever was. I've been running heavy with MGL32 and do very decently with it, but the amount of people that piss about my loadouts and ragequit or even grief me for it? Gone up by 300% since emerald unlocked. It absolutely sucks and they need to revamp the whole damn thing before I give WT another try.

  • @FluffleFluffs
    @FluffleFluffs หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I totally agree with what you said about the changes to the game systems. I think it would be better to have separate modes for casual and ranked playstyles instead of trying to mix them together. Coming up with new game modes might not be easy, but it could really help with the issues people are having. As someone who enjoys playing competitively but in a more laid-back way, I believe it's not fair to restrict rewards for those who put in a lot of effort. People who grind hard should be able to choose their rewards, not just be given something.
    I was so surprised to find that Easter egg inside the tree in Kyoto. I've been there many times, and I never would have guessed that there was a floppy disk hidden there. I hope we get some more answers about the floppy disks especially since its weird how they float there for that long before going. (Maybe they are clues for new skins or something?)
    Lastly, I just subscribed to your channel and I'm very happy I did. You are always so informative, and your dedication to finding game content and Easter eggs is amazing. I wanted to support you because even when I shared my thoughts on the game roadmaps, you were respectful and made really good points. It's nice to be able to have discussions, even if we don't agree 100%, without feeling criticized. Thank you for being such an awesome person, and I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos. 🫶✨

    Being able to choose the weapon would be great. As a Medium main, it sucks that you need to grind to Emerald 1 to get the skin you want.
    As for the Ranked mode, I feel like most is fine with it, the only thing is that it's TA. I do not know anybody who enjoys thay game mode. I'd just play CS/Valo at that point. The regular Cash Out tournaments are competitve enough as it is. TA should've stayed as a seasonal event game mode or something.

The comments are confusing, I'm getting "it's so easy to get Emerald 1 if you just play all day" and then I see videos and posts like this where people say they can't even win games, so which one is it? Is it super duper easy if you can play for a hours or end or is it too hard because the sweats are playing so it doesn't matter how long you play?

    To be honest, emerald is fine.

    Emerald rewards are for the DEDICATED part of the community, people like me, who got diamond in season 2 and never played TA beacause they knew the only ''The finals'' Experience is Cashout mode.
    Emerald should put you in a mind condition to improve at the game to be SWEATY.
    SWEATY is not the problem of this game.
    We need a dedicated, sweaty community that want to improve at the game and put everything on it.

      By the way, Embark may have also said from the beginning of World Tour that you shouldn't grind to gold 1 if you play the game for fun, because once you are gold 1, all the daimond and top 500 crazy people will come to World Tour.
      Also, don't tell me what to play for me and other casuals, Embark is making mistakes here again and won't fix it.
