The Finals Power Shift is the *BEST*

Ойындар

With THE FINALS POWERSHIFT mode the game is MASSIVELY broadened its appeal with a new 2-team 5v5 game mode. The Finals Powershift is also the first mode to feature a central payload-style gameplay. Is it worth checking out? Let’s see what The Finals Powershift has to offer….

    Liked the 5v5 mode more but one criticism would be that it does get very spam heavy at times.

    Uncustomizable weapons are a good thing. I want to die to an mp5 and say “ah he got me with an mp5” not die to a “Ryker grip holo sight collapsible stock extended mag hollow point mp5” learn your gun and how to play it. Customizing guns in cod have a negative effect on the game. It was cool when you got one attachment, but that game didn’t have light medium and heavy classes with different unique special abilities plus gadgets that support you role on the team as your selected play style. Gun customization would ruin the customization we already have. Learn your gun.

    I agree on most of these points Yet something like switching out optics would be nice Since I really hate some of the ironsights and it's one of the main reasons why I find myself choosing the Lewis gun over th3 m60

    Seeing Dirty Bomb mentioned in 2024 is unreal. I do hope there will be some kind of successor, like DB was to Brink. I have yet to find another game that feels as good at it's core as DB does. Though I am guilty of being a Phantom main. After spending close to 1800 hours playing in 3 years, i decided to even get the logo tattooed as a memory of the fun i had had. your channel was a big part of that journey so, thank you

    Here since Dirty Bomb! I enjoyed The Finals a tremendous amount during the open beta and the first few weeks of season 1, but the average skill balooned quickly and the game lost the creative and casual nature it had in the early days. Power Shift feels like Dirty Bomb and brought back my love for The Finals! I think I've played maybe 3 or 4 matches since season 2 started that wasn't Power Shift.

    Thank god someone said what i have been thinking. Im not a 4 teams of 3 player, power shift is the only mode i play. I have tried the other modes but they are not my cup of tea. I want too see more 5v5 modes. Mainly i want to see a "hard point" style of game mode. Just a single capture point that randomly jumps around the map, that with this destruction would make every round feel different.

    been here since the db days :) and been playing the finals as my main shooter since open beta! i loved it when it launched and couldnt really put down, but since power shift came out ive been playing that mode about 90% of the time. it feels like the overwatch version of push or whatever it was called but done right. devs also have confirmed they will push more maps to power shift, so thats probably next for the mode. yes, new routes would be cool and also i do hope that there will be a ranked mode for power shift :) main mode can be frustrating, especially when youre about move to next round (if youre playing ranked) but your cashout gets stolen in the last second, i absolutely cannot stand that, especially if we've been fighting off one team and the other one just comes in last second and takes it. hopefully they can make some adjustments going forward to that!

    Yep, agree with all that - the cashout mode just seems to generate those sort of clustered fights that I don't tend to enjoy. I like the chaos normally in games, but I've learned I prefer it to also have rough front-lines so you're not looking 360-degress the whole time waiting to get 3rd-partied. Cheers for watchin all these years :)

    Dope ! And, I feel you with not liking deathmatch and the fear of someone always being behind you 😂 And, sight options would be amazing! I understand that the devs dont want to have focus on weapon attachements and more on the game mechanics, but changing the sight doesnt change much. It just makes shooting the guns more enjoyable...

    Choosing one weapon because it has a sight over a weapon that doesn’t is a good thing. It’s harder to see with the AK but I pick it because I put out more damage than I do with the FCAR

    New mode is pretty good, I agree. Made me wanna play again. Still, for me, nothing beats the gunplay feel of DB. Wish the hip fire was more accurate here. Finding myself relying on it sometimes when I shouldn't. Biggest beef I have is audio and indicator for getting shot. Enemy footsteps should be louder. Not counter strike loud, but loud enough so that I hear them if they are really close. Also enemy gunfire should be louder - the amount of times I hear shots behind me and be like "ok, thats far, it does not need my immediate attention", only to get flatlined because they are actually super close. And finally - getting hit - I take different actions based on my hp. If I feel I'm loosing a fight, I'm gonna bolt it. But in this game I have a hard time getting a feel for how badly I am injured. And I don't have time to look at my hp while in a gunfight. Bugs here and there, some balancing needed, but overall its a great game.

    I really wish there was a way to get better hip fire too, think a weapon attachment system would be a great addition. Maybe give much slower ADS speed for better hf, etc. Damage indicator is an interesting one, didn't think I agreed with you until I thought about it and looked at some footage back. Think the only real times I can evaluate whether I want to bolt is when I can see the threat on-screen. So yea, additional indicators or maybe some centralised hud showing hp would be good.

    RTCW ET was my first real addiction, I still wonder why not more other games use(d) a more similar formula, I really loved the teamwork and the varied multi stage objective gameplay that game offered, and its voice call-outs are still fresh on my brain, they enriched the gameplay so much "Ja ha" "Wunderbar" "Good game" "Hallo" "I'm a field ops" "'Incoming" "Taking fire" "I need a medic" "We need an engineer" "Disarm the objective" ..., whole conversations could be had. DB was/is quite similar, has more enjoyable gunplay and is a lot of fun, but I did miss the larger more casual nature of ET a bit, and the mods, the progression, the community built maps, also the voice callouts were disappointingly watered down/underused in comparison.

    Honestly i don't know when exactly i subscribed to your channel, but i know / watched your vids since the DB-times. Hearing your voice always reminds me of DB and brings back good memories. So i hope you'll be around for a bit :) Wish i could like The Finals, but the 3vs3vs3(vs3?) was just not for me. I always felt like premade trios just wipe the floor with random trios. If it was two teams of 6vs6 or 7vs7, i think i would have a blast.

    Power shift is significantly better when you’re not squadded up with friends and communicating though. Cash out is great but I can’t play strategically in such a chaotic game mode when I have no comms with randoms. And helldivers kinda killed this game, hoping the finals comes back but I only have one friend that plays now and then vs 7 friends playing helldivers. And I’m on Xbox so…..
