    Agreed, I played the finals when it 1st came out and I was confused, so I didn't give it a chance. But I started playing xdefiant a little and it sparked the flame to play FPS's then I remembered about the finals and tried it again. To be honest that's all I've been thinking about . No game is the same and there are so many varieties. I don't mind paying for the skins

    I really want 3 things from season 3: 1) performance inprovements would be great, not sure whether it's even possible 2) Balance changes. Really 3) A reason to play. Oh and I like the idea of the game feeling like a game show. The customisation can go wild and the AI voicelines have so much more potential. I kinda forgot about VRS already, so yeah, they should improve them in some way. Honestly, I would like everything from this video implemented into the game. I REALLY expect something from season 3, because a few latest patch notes were not great

    RE: CNS -- i think that CNS is kind of like the resistance that you see in the movie, "The Running Man". In that movie, there was a similar faction that was also trying to put the damper on the network for the games that were being played on the television network ICS. To me, it's interesting Meta, that from time to time, could be implemented. That said, I also agree that the gameshow should be fleshed out, as should the "athlete" aspect, as there are aspects of this game that could be seen as sport.

    I likely WON'T be coming back until some changes are made. mainly, i just don't get the same excitement that i used to get when i played the game. I think this is mainly because of spawns as half the time you're spawned all the way across the map from the objective, plus the longer respawn times. it gives players less chances to take the cash out and its more running and waiting then actually playing the game, so the only way to consistently win and have fun is to be dominate on you opponents and not die. this is why people care so much about meta loadouts now, as they need the best setup to survive and kill their opponents consistently, which destroys the creativity and ability to play the game how you want of the game. it's the reason why medium and heavy are mainly used, as they bring high survivability to the team. i remember being able to movement perfectly to just barely steal the cashbox at the end of the game, but now that's literally impossible, and most of the time now i sit in a spawn completely across the map from the vault emoting, knowing there isn't a single chance in the universe that i will win. i think that people would care less about meta if the game was exciting to play like it was in the past, and they would have more chances to win using their own unique loadout. i don't even care about what the devs do with the meta, because most of the fun i got wasn't when i was shooting my gun, but rather when i was working together with my team to steal the vault, but now my team can't even get to the vault in time, let alone steal it. by capping players with a 26 second respawn time and a marathon to get to the cash box, the devs are literally limiting all the action that players could potentially bring to the game. that same excitement was also nerfed when defib was given that weird respawn timer effect, as rather then being able to change the tide of the game instantly by bringing back your teammate, now you just have to watch then slowly spawn only to die immediately. yes, i understand though that it needed a nerf, but i think that making defib a special ability rather then a gadget would be way better of a nerf. to summarize, when i play the game now it just feels very monotone; there are no clutch plays, and usually and the best team most of the time just dominates the others, meaning that everyone else has to wait for respawn and run just to get one more chance at the cash box. if i wanted to play that style of a monotone competitive game where the best player and loadouts win, i would play a game like call of duty, but i don't. if you want that even more summarized..."The finals, a gameshow that is mainly centered around excitement, is having the action that creates excitement bottlenecked". also if i was to add back these shorter respawn, i would only add it to causal, like quick cash, as competitive player would likely get winy about it. this would mean that casual player can play in quick cash for a action packed experience, and competitive can play in competitive to show their skill, allowing for both sides of the community to have fun. if anyone read through this, thank you very much and feel free to flame me down in the replies lol. 🤣 Edit: this is not to flame the devs or anything, as i think that the game is definitely improving and the devs are putting a lot of care into the game, especially with ranked getting a smaller server size, but this is just the main issue i have with the game at the moment.

    Hooollyyy wall of text lol, I gotchu though I like reading what everyone has to say aha. Yes I agree that the respawns in this game need a massive overhaul. Something crazy, literally last night we had a cashout active, got wiped but it wasn’t stolen due to third parties, and we spawned even further away from it, closer to the other cashout that was active lol. Yes that’s my point with the games state right now, if you get started do a few games etc, there isn’t really also any player interaction it’s almost as if you’re forgotten in the game, no “hey this sponsor wants to sign you” or “you’re starting to make a name for yourself out there” etc. I think the crowd should react a lot more to what’s going on in the game too, like imagine hearing ooooooooooOOOOOOOOO as you’re trying to steal or something, especially when you’re about to clutch that would go hard

    One match the cash out was in the elevator (my favorite) but the teams were focused and they were good. We had lost the first cash out and desperate for that sweet sweet cash. Pushed by 2 teams we went from floor to floor fighting it out as the time ticked. Me in the vents protecting the vault and my teammates being absolute Chads out in the open. They manage to wipe a team but the 3rd party clap one of my friends, the other, after a desperate attempt to save the fallen, runs back to the safety of the elevator. The doors close but he didn’t hit the button. The elevator rides up as I urge him to climb up the ladder to me. The doors open and a fresh squad find an empty elevator.… it was over before they even realized what had happened. We stood there behind them, 2 contestants with a perfect ambush. Moments like these make the game for me.

    Tbf, if we really get a spectator (the fact that the Twitch rivals is happening makes it one hell of a hint) then we as creators / competitive players would be able to start rolling tournaments for everyone. The state of the game is good, what we need is marketing and the spectator mode along with a good ranking system to give people a goal to achieve in the long term. Also, as a dev (made overlays/discord bots to show your rank in TF), I would like to see more data being usable by us. So that we would enhance the experience for everyone. I'm still a believer in the game, hope that season 3 checks most of the marks !

    Good recap and definitely agree with the points you made on this video. Had fun this season and completed the battle pass + all weekly circuits. Although my question of committing to season 3 will be the new content + community events going forward. I love the game, but it has been feeling stale in a sense. Which is normal if you play a game over a longer period of time. For competitive, I'd say taking Overwatch 2's approach of having multiple game modes on rotation would be a great compromise. Allowing more variety in the gameplay, but also not further splitting the player base. Bug wise, I have had guns and healing beams not firing (I'm on PC btw). But it's been rare, yet still frustrating. My biggest issue is the handling of balance which you highlighted. As a light main, I'm starting to feel its redundant to play light if you want to win. I love playing light because of the skill expression the class gives. But being outclassed balance wise hurts my experience. It still hurts when the unique gadgets of other classes feel much more potent. I want to be able to contribute to my team and make plays, but I have to work way harder than I would with just medium, healing beam and defibs. Hope to see you pump out more great content this next season!

  • @THiiXY

    Awesome summary! Yes I agree with you, content and events are that variety that really makes a game feel fresh, especially when we have rewards to do those things. I think Embark need to focus on the events in Season 3, because they were pretty fun like the smoking guns one we had. Also I honestly think light should get a complete rework to this character, either that or some gadget to help light keep up with the metas right now for sure. I love that light has that “easy to play hard to master” aspect for sure :) see you in Season 3!!

    I've had the healing bug on pc a few times in the past, but I don't think it's related to the healing beam itself, when you try to grab arena carriables too fast while doing other actions, it sometimes bugs and locks you in holding them without them being in your hand, they somehow disappeared and the game waits for them to be in your hand, so when you switch back to a weapon or gadget or spec, you can't actually left click, until the carriable either decides to go back to its original position, or finally come in your hand. I don't know if it's been fixed because I've had it happen seldom lately, but yeah, it happened in the past.

They always have free cosmetics tied to them too (wild west, easter, terminal attack), so there isn't anything for me to complain about with there. On top of all of that, the community events for everyone to earn some cosmetics too were great!

    My thoughts on balance is more game modes and variety is a good thing. It would divide the player base, but as long as a weapon is good somewhere its fine. The SAS12 shotgun might be horrible in powershift, but good elsewhere and that's fine. Not every weapon can be balanced in every mode, but weapons can't be broken in a mode.

    I agree with the matter of the finals losing the gameshow aspect of it, and terminal attack being a good option for a ranked mode. My idea was to bump every game mode to 5v5 and have the tournament be a gauntlet of game modes that have to be fought this would actually help with things like stagnant metas and team diversity because you have to pack into the ranked with a loadout that can actually run the gauntlet like a medium could use a heal beam but the moment they run into a terminal attack they have no specialization, Lights would be more common with modes like bank it, power shift and terminal attack being always in play the only thing that is consistant across the game modes is the heavy and thats where they could focus nerfs once they have variety up.

For a player like me who likes to play dress-up, an extra character slot would be a huge driving force to purchase the battlepass as we create more and more characters with different outfit and loadout. This is the only game out of so many others that got me to spend real money on just cosmetics, and that should say something about how skins are designed for this game. I really enjoy the gameplay, everything, so I hope the devs would consider making use of that VR money to purchase additional slots.

    I just love the game. The controls, the destruction, and everything. I'm the kind of person who can't just play one game forever, and the same can be said about The Finals, but I do come back when I can to play it, and I always enjoy it. I am definitely going to be playing a lot during the summer, though. The game definitely doesn't get the love/popularity it deserves, but this is kind of the developers' faults. They really should go all in for marketing. I feel like they need to really up their game in marketing techniques so that their stuff gets pushed out a lot. Maybe try putting something slightly controversial to gain an audience (like having a black guy in a chicken suit for a trailer, for example). Or just make something generally funny, as those kinds of things tend to gain popularity (for example, Palworld advertised guns and slavery, and look at its success). Also, I understand it's hard to make maps for a game like this, but they really should spend a lot of time doing that so that the game has more diverse gameplay. I genuinely love this game, and want it to become the best version of itself and achieve success. I hope they go crazy with Season 3 and blow up (or at least blow up sometime in the near future). But one more thing is, PLEASE give Scottie and June better lines, at the very least. I wish they would give better voice lines to them, as well as having them be voiced by real people as opposed to AI. The voice lines should be fixed, but honestly, I won't complain about the AI. Sure, it could sound better, but typically it's pretty good, and I know it'd be a lot more expensive for them to use real VAs.
