You fucked it up, Anon.

>>1976576
No, they definitely added the P90 to the game

>>1976576
Reskins don't count

>>1976655
It's funny, because people have barely talked about the P90 it seems. There's the usual complaints with every automatic, but the BFR really seems to have stolen the show, for better and worse.

>>1978383
It's another auto. Who cares?

>>1978453
>Who cares?
I'd presume the people that have been endlessly and needlessly bitching about autos the entire lifespan of the game in order to try to deflect from their own mediocrity, but I guess right now they have the Major to get all their talking point for the next year from instead

>>1978509
Seething.

>>1978527
Indeed, that is what those people do, endlessly

P90 isn't really a problematic auto because it doesn't have range, which is always the problem with them. Consistent long-ranged weapons with great damage always end up being obnoxious. The only people who have complained about the P90 are the rare light mains who doesn't like dealing with medium having a brainless CQC gun, everyone else registers that it's about as balanced as a submachine gun is going to get on medium

The new destruction system is only active on those 2 structures. Everything else follows the same destruction rules.

the destruction is very different in some areas and not much in others, im guessing they went in and tuned a bunch of stuff by hand to make the destruction more playable and less chaotic. Everything in Kyoto was pretty much overhauled entirely.

really need more coom outfits, game's too tame

fucking turd of a game crashes on launch now, it's all so tiresome

Why is light allowed to ram his SH up your asshole and 1shot 3/3 classes

>>1981200
The only time this game is ever going to get overt coom outfits is when its in its death throws and embark is trying to milk the last couple of whales left. Female characters barely have A-cup tits and most of the faces are average to ugly looking; unfortunately this game was made during a time when every western dev was mandated to cut down sexual dimorphism as much as possible and to never make truly attractive characters.

cus it's fun but not very practical against a strong player because you're pigeonholing yourself into ambush at point blank or useless
last thing this game needs to be doing is dumpstering more mid-tier weapons because they occupy a normie-angering niche like burst, melee, or splash

if lights are so strong why don't we see dual light comps in tourneys

>>1983440
funny that 90% of the reason light is played now has to do with them getting very strong support gadgets with a tiny helping of "their guns are actually good now"

Cutting your teams health pool massively for no real benefit. A second gateway isn't necessary, a second infuser is of little benefit on a low hp team, 4 glitch nades is overkill

I like the high TTK, but I don't like that they've been on a bit of a crusade against finishers for people that manage to close the gap.

Last time I played this game it was the beta and nobody ever had a mic and the matchmaking was ass and available game modes weren't fun at all. Did anything change or is it still full of stupid shit

even tho pros use the shak, BFR and duelies, I cant get over how consistent the m60 is, on top of being the everything the minigun is except better.

>>1987706
most heavy pros use BFR and SA12 though
shak looses against a good SA12

....riiiiiiiight.

>>1988077
You will always get a free 2 hits after a successful winch, that's already a guaranteed 72x2 dmg dealt
burst fire is always better than sustained fire when aim isn't a concern (wether it be equal skill level or simply the vicinity)
PHL is about to start and you can also rewatch the Closed Qualifiers and count how many heavies are using Shak and SA12 and notice which ones close the fight.
Not saying the Shak is bad, I quite like it but if I had better aim and supportive teammates, the SA12 beats it out in term of raw damage output

then again, you praise the M60, so your standards and knowledge is already rock bottom

>>1988150
>after a successful winch
1) Get this, ShAK users can also use the Winch and flat out counter that with their own stun
2) Max range is like, 12m. ShAK users can just stand outside of Winch range and get their full damage. The SA12 can't
>you can watch PHL or the Closed Qualifiers
Or, get this, one can go off of the actual video game itself, rather than variances in players' personal preferences and proficiencies
>then again, you praise the M60

195 KB PNG

>>1988153
Imagine going against hard facts, here's picrelated, the top picks of the whole PHL

Notice that the SA12 saw a 76.6% OF USE among EVERY heavy.
that anon here >>1987706 specifically said "even pros" when while, yes, the Shak is good, most pros use infact the SA12.

also
>1) Get this, ShAK users can also use the Winch and flat out counter that with their own stun
But within that timeframe you will output more damage with an SA12. If you get winched as an SA12 user, you're still at an advantage since now you have the range benefit of being pulled in your effective range.
>2) Max range is like, 12m. ShAK users can just stand outside of Winch range and get their full damage. The SA12 can't
Doesn't matter because Shak has the double bullet mechanic, that means that you will do HALF your damage should only 1 bullet connect. As for the range itself, every heavy runs dome to cover himself, not to mention that barricade and sometimes even goo are more than viable choices (personally I always run barricade when I play SA12 exactly for this reason and to play ring around the rosie to buy time for a cycle or just to throw him off)


>Or, get this, one can go off of the actual video game itself, rather than variances in players' personal preferences and proficiencies
I do and that's why I see it, first fucking hand. As I stated multiple times, I do not think the Shak is bad, far from it. I am an user of it, it is a GOOD gun. But when I go against a good SA12 user, I will get my shit rocked. And most pros choose that weapon, as the data clearly shows.

>No, I'm a separate anon chiming in at you obvious being wrong, and I guess we can also add you being a shitty little snide faggot on top of that too
Where do you think we are? The M60 IS bad. I'm not worried in the slightest when I go against an M60/minigun user. Accuracy over time is punished in this game.

>>1988165
>Imagine going against hard facts, here's picrelated, the top picks of the whole PHL
pffffft, holy fuck, get some self awareness anon. You're saying to ignore the hard facts of the actual game stats in favor of highly variable and subjective player performance data. You are not in the right state of mind to actually discuss this matter.

>>1988171

Do you even listen to yourself. Don't bother bumping further, it's clear you're just stirring up a fuss since otherwise this thread is usually dead as fuck.

>>1988178

Hi, I just wanted to jump in the thread to post this.
Fucking nerds. Lmao.

Just tried the LH1 for the first time ever... V9S sisters, it's so over for us... It's just better in every metric...

>>1989071
doesn't have as many bullets

Got whined at in a ranked game for running goo nades over C4. I swapped it in for a couple games and basically the only value I ever get with it is dropping the cash when the demat medium (there's always one) is dead. Is that all it's good for or am I using it wrong?

Great work with the demat nerf, Embark. Really enjoying the monotonous heal nigger meta

>>1989081
Makes up for those 5 rounds with headshot damage, headshots with the V9S don't even help in 1v1s vs other lights

you can toss it surprisingly far to explode lights

>>1989092
It's an impractical grenade subtitue and a remote mine or mine enchancer too. It's not really used for destruction, but for killing. Just not enough charges for demolition.
You should keep goo nades. They're a high iq tool people overlook because it deals no damage and can be misfired. But if you run it in havy you have absolute control over the arena: be it destruction or construction.
I pretty much have two loadouts for heavy: a kill chasing eplosive ordonance killchaser and a goo gun area control trapper. If I get a minute to goo up our cashout location there is nothing they can do except charge and slam in my mines to give their team a window.
Goo is awesome.

>>1989071
> Jerking off the LH1 while knowing full well it'll never reach it's old prime again AND it's current recoil is godawful unless you're a headshot wizard
Yeah, good luck with that bro. Let's see you deal with a dash light up close with the LH1 while you're panicking. Rubies and pros can get away with the LH1 because they're continually on insanely good teams and can play support Light from mid-long range and hardly ever need to get up close and personal unless it's a must or they've got man advantage. You? The random teams you get will never be on that level, and you'll be getting screeched at over the mic when you inevitably lose the 1v1 you NEED to clutch because you missed someone's head by an inch.
LH1 ain't worth it big dog unless you're like the top 10% of players, but you'll find that out the hard way lol.
Remember this post :'^)

>>1989092
C4 is a steal deny tool, it mostly serves to buy time and maybe kill the stealer guy. Granted, you can also goodeny but that's not your job. Goo nades are ok (as long as you still bring dome and rpg) but personally I prefer barricades because they're smaller and can be used mid fight better for heavy's short range combat. Medium usually brings goo too so not that much necessary to have more.

>>1989071
Is ok, but the 93R just mogs both outta the water

>>1976478
P90 is dogshit unless you're a hip-firing, run-and-gun retard

I was about to get so fucking mad about these bullshit teams pack. Like I thought they were finally adding the OSPUZE Cowboy but only as a team-flavored variant. Now I'm just pissed off that they clearly know what people want but won't give it.

the bottom line is that
there is such a warframe game
and I somehow went to play a general selection with random people where they deliberately created all sorts of crap in the game to spoil the gaming experience for other players. although this game is cooperative. for this reason, I spoke obscenely about their actions and made it clear what I thought of them. they threw reporters at me and I was banned for 1 month. Yes, it's my fault - I violated the rules of good manners, but they are also to blame for provoking people to such things. they went unpunished.

when my lock was lifted and I logged into the game, I saw that I had 2 violation notifications. The second was "threats and harassment," although it certainly wasn't, even indirectly! but the technical support of the game decided to put the bolt for verification, which increased the lock period for me. tech support told me that the players regarded your words as a threat.

I wrote to tech support that I could actually complain about any word in the chat with my friends, which would intentionally block everyone in a row because of threats and harassment. if technical support and moderation does not want to fulfill their function as an honest orbiter. I really hope that you can help me with this. it's a good game, but its technical support is very relaxed and does its job carelessly. We need to stimulate them so that they don't just get the money we give to the game.

this will be a very good protest against the inaction of the technical support of this game and very valuable for the players' experience. I can assure you that the players on whom the reports will be sent will not always be blocked, but from 1 week to 1 month they will have to play something else. These limits are specified by the developers themselves in the license agreement.

thanks to all those who will at least pay attention to this action, and a very low bow to those who will take part.

>>1989705
why are you like this

because lately I've been dealing with this kind of attitude towards players from the technical support quite often.

>>1989716

Well they could have made it so that explosives clear away smoke. Fire clears gas, smoke clears fire, nothing clears smoke. It's just annoying visibility reduction. Hope they do away with the stupid dust clouds when structures get damaged too.

>>1989814
nothing of value was lost desu

>>1989878
That's always been my take on it but for some reason smoke is the only "element" that can't be countered and the only counter is thermal vis, which got removed

>>1989929
I thought smoke was countered with explosives? The problem being grenades and the rpg have disgustingly long cool downs.

>>1990448
Smoke is countered by explosives, yes. Small explosives will push the cloud out, big explosives will dissipate the cloud outright. Most people's issues stem from trying to destroy the cloud with small explosives in a confined space, where there's little room for the smoke to move to. You can also just toss Gas into their Smoke to flush out anyone trying to hide in it, since Gas + Smoke is bretty stronk

>cashout steals have become and increasing frustration
>so we made it a little more balanced
You know what alse is an increasing frustration? Two barrels appearing in my heavy ass and sending me to kingdom come. But got forbid not bullying heavy or encouraging a non gun centric tactic.
I might just quit if they keep nerfing non guns, there's games with better gunplay out there

>>1990282
>>1990448
>>1990463
I have heard it alleged that explosives only clear out smoke in the practice range for some reason but this sounds like it could, itself, be a myth

>>1990448
technically does, yes, but it just pushes them around a bit, doesn't outright dissipate the whole cloud (think something like how CS2's smoke functions). Besides most people just chuck all their nades and the dense cloud just won't really dissipate even with explosives, it'll just kinda stay there

More military? Nah, people are fine with cartoony or gameshow type games akin to maybe MNC or TF2

More players per match? Hell yeah man, people won't wanna hear this but 2 teams against eachother of 16 players duking it out in a destructable arena is more fun than being stuck in a 3v3v3(v3) where you can get shot by multiple teams all the time. Only gamemode that gets close to that is powershift.

Dude this shit is the reason I stopped playing. Double barrels are whatever, but the fucking game was advertised like it's a 3v3v3 heist, but doing anything that's not killing the whole team is pointless. C4 has one charge now, but what got me to install the game was the clip in the trailer where they dropped the cash out 2 floors and stole the cash out. They keep catering to the dumbest faggots and this shit feels like counter strike with more walking and third partying instead of an intense multiplayer heist.

No it doesn't. That's just how you're trying to contextualize it to cope.

I've been really enjoying heaven or hell bros. Such a goofy fun gamemode.
>>2000050
It has like 6 gamemodes at any given time, 2 of which has sweaties because you get rewards from grinding those. (Ranked and world tour). The rest are pretty carefree fun.

I like Heaven or Hell but the Chinese Won't Let Us Call It Hell, but I feel like it's held back by the Spear's alt-fire. If they were somehow able to stitch the Sledge's bonk onto it, so you'd have better access to destruction and a more meaningful choice with your alt-fire attacks (since the spin is pretty much useless), then it'd be perfect

Poke angle, health of whomever is stabbed and movement all affects knockback. Its funny because you can just tap jump and Charge and slam the ground next to low health enemies and send them flying.

Doing the swirl is already shut down by one poke, let alone a swarm of them. It does nothing for that purpose at all, and you're honestly better off trying to poke yourself a window out to get away. There's only a few select counters where a spin can actually get you out ahead, and requires some really specific footwork.

>>2003227
i like playing heavy, the charge attack is fun and akimbo/spear are cool but goddam the class sucks ass, i only play it in powershift ucz thats the only mode where i can perform relatively well with it

>>2003227
as heavy your goal isn't chase chase chase tdm light bullshit, it's all positioning, stall, making lights suffer for daring to w+m1 and dash spam in your direction

>if you miss *any* shots with your weapon as heavy you're essentially garunteeing you lose that fight
>a light can dash around you like a fly and reload 8 times but if he sprays into your guts with at least 1 of those clips you're dead
>a competent light will just do it in one clip because their controller aims for them

>>2005119
This is why winch + SA12 combo is meta for heavy. Light with any SMG (Namely the ARN in particular) can completely melt any heavy out in the open easily, and it's hard for the heavy to contest against that with his own rifles unless he has laser-precise aim.
With winch/SA12 all you have to do is get out of the open by running around a corner or indoors, wait for the Light to chase you down, that pull him face-first into your shotgun slugs for a free kill

>>2005119
>if you miss *any* shots with your weapon as heavy you're essentially guaranteeing you lose that fight
This is why I still don't understand what the fuck they're thinking with the KS-23. The "point" of the weapon is intended misses, with most walls requiring enough shots to put you in the realm of requiring absolute perfect accuracy to get a kill on Medium or Heavy without reloading.

AND it's one of the slowest Heavy weapons to kill anyways
AND it's one of the slowest reloads around
AND it's got super aggressive falloff

>>2005251
I think Heavy just needs better guns period. Even the newly-introduced BFR is dogshit because:
a.) Very slow reload
b.) Very limited ammo
c.) Very slow firerate
There's literally no reason to pick the BFR over the Akimbos.
I think the only passable guns Heavy has right now are the Akimbo deagles, M60, SHAK, and SA12

>>2005119
Winch has some of the most forgiving hitbox i'v ever seen and at that point light is just deleted if he steps within 10m. The real issue the lights that never ever get close enough to get winched in the first place

remember when this was marketed as high time to kill?

>>2005417
Not even then neccessarily, if he has all his dashes and you have bad close range tracking, he can still kill you. Light weapons just deal so much damage and heavy so little the class healthpool disparity is reversed.
For example: you winched an ussuspecting light. The light has a double barrel shotty.

>>2005517
Won't do them much good. The strength of the double barrel is ambushes, as 0.75s TTK is hard or downright impossible to beat if you have to react to the first shot. Human reaction time will just eat into that no matter what, giving you an incredibly small window to acquire your target before the TTK battle becomes unwinnable.

However, if you've winched them, then that's not a factor, and you should be able to melt them. You have to have a gun as slow as the KS-23 to not win that fight.

Are we ready to admit the flamethrower shouldn't have been nerfed?
Are we ready to admit c4+explosive canister was fun

>>2007887
Most people can agree the flamethrower shouldn't have been nerfed. It's predicated on an idea that just doesn't actually work out for it in the majority of scenarios, other than to be a counter against lights that actually bother to play to light's close quarters gimmick

Nukes, people will always complain about because they're big fucking babies that need The Finals to be a serious game and they totally didn't deserve to lose to getting blown up in big funny bomb wah wah wah wah wah wah wah

Wow, sword really is overpowered bullshit, I knew sword lights were hard to deal with but I didn't know it was as easy as run directly into the enemy and click and until they explode

>>2007887
Beta flame was retarded op, the afterburn lasted a whome match and the flames would fill your screen. I think it's in an ok spot and for a bit during the last month of S7 was the only reliable countermeasure to the fuckin riot spam.

Nukes were just op man. One time I wiped an entire team with a canister. Funny to do to people but cancerous when done to you, especially since it had zero countermeasures.

Nah. Fuck that. Greenlight it and nerf Medium's shotguns.

>>2009161
BTW, it's the absolute best feeling in the world as a medium player to be on low health from some faggot light spamming left click with sword and throw down an explosive mine that you think will kill the light, only for them to sword-dash through the explosive mine, tank it, and kill you simultaneously while surviving with 5HP afterwards and fucking off elsewhere.
Love it! :)

Melee is so fun, fuck needing to aim, I hate needing to aim

>>2009161
>best mobility and is hardest to track
The funniest part is that, even in Melee vs Melee scenarios, the Light still has an inherent advantage against other classes due to being small, as it's incredibly easy to whiff over their heads if you're not aiming down, which fucks with everything regarding turning and situational awareness even more.

Really, is there any light weapon that ISN'T overtuned as fuck?

>>2009444
Dagger, M26 matter, and bow
That's about it
And yes, I know some of you think the sniper rifle should be on the list of dogshit weapons, but ruby sniper lights will make you want to uninstall the fucking game because they'll blow your head off while you're in the middle of fighting off 2 teams

>>2009459
Dagger can oneshot everyone but heavy with a sliver of health, but I guess you can't dash through and 180 people anymore to reliably win every encounter.
Matter is a model on stereoids and with a magazine.
I have the same grievance with the bow as you do with the sniper. It is hard to use but if you encounter someone who can, it's miserable to play against. The bow does not change its projectile behaviour nor has any damage falloff compared to the sniper. And can be spammed to finish you off too. Luckily there's like 3 lights in the game that know how to use it.

They all require better positioning, tactics and knowledge to use that the "click on heads" guns but they're all incredibly strong still.

do we have a 4chan club or anything?

flamethrower is always a fun time

>>2009823
Bow is the best weapon in the game if you can realistically head shot it's the ultimate light counter and ultimate range and upclose tool if you can flick. But like you said it takes a lot of in game knowledge and not just raw mechanics to excel with the bow. but it's TTK is the fastest and not having to reload means you can solo entire teams if you can hit your shots

>>2009161
If you lose to sword that's a skill issue. Legit just run away and red barrel them or gas or goo or legit do anything but stand grouped as 3 with a stick in up ur tight hiney

>>2005303
It is legit a sniper. Can delete lights and delete mediums super super easily. It's hard countered by other heavies / shields but if you just rpg or team shoot it becomes legit broken

>>2003460
Nah just played hours of BF and wanted to play the finals ranked to actually display skill and not just random spawn die/ bloom bs kills. Actually out play and out think your oponent.

Mega cope
In a game where there's endless chaos and people running all over the place, you can get ambushed by sword light at literally any moment for free
Not saying they'll be able to keep getting away with it, but with as cheesy as the sword is, it's inevitable you're going to get killed by it at least once

I can excuse that a season with a Major is a bit lighter on new content, but to compensate, they should've really cranked up the amount and wackiness of LTEs and the World Tour modifiers. Especially something that might've actually done well to show off the new features. Like doing Blast Off again but this time with suspended structures, or having permanent Mega Damage enabled the entire match.

>>2013124
I just want the stuff they put in the game to atleast be finished and not underbaked as hell. What's the point of a killcam if it doesn't work and half of the players won't even turn it on?

>>2013125
Who cares

>>2013117
Hunt Showdown is paid and still has a large playerbase even after all these years. It will succeed because it's competition is a stinky inventory management simulator played by cheating RMT chinks and russians.

>>2013238
the BFR is still good but it's a precision weapon so you're losing consistency which means you dont bring much to most team fights.

>>2012442
>(im a healslut)
>dropped the game when the dedicated medic skin got released

>>2013238
the bfr was always good and rather overtuned, giving heavy range and damage isn't the best idea

that said, liggers can get fucked, oh boo hoo, you got winched and killed and therefore the weapon is "op" and the winch is "too strong" wet we never talk about how you can dash omnidirectionally in the blink of an eye and still pepper me with a trillion damage per second, fuck off

>>2013786
dash doesn't stun people with a hitbox so forgiving you can miss the entire thing and turn to catch them on the pull in.

>>2014033
winch doesn't kill you before you can react
just dash through the heavy and magdump into his back and instawin

If you can't see it's total bullshit that heavy getting nerfed because they were able to use a specialization and a gaget to combo a kill on the smallest health pool class in the game, while light can "combo" the largest health pool class in game by pressing LMB again since forever, you should sit down and stay silent.

>>2013172

>>2014888
what's that? more heavy nerfs?? can do!

>>2014888
Don't forget the ARN. Aside from a couple specific stats, it's objectively superior to every Medium Assault Rifle, and for those few stats where it isn't a complete blowout in favor of the ARN, they are--at worst--just simply equal to the gun with the best version of those stats. Light's just allowed to do it all.

aight chat, tell me with complete honesty, what weapons do you think are the ABSOLUTE best right now for each class in the game?

I figured out how to nerf dash: can't dash forward. Still side to side and backwards but not forward in any degree

get rid of dash

Not anymore. That was the problem before.

>>2015059
Light:
93R or M11 (if you're on a trolla)
Medium:
CB or FAMAS. FCAR if you just can't let go.
Heavy:
ShAK if you can't aim
If you can aim, SA12 or BFR

>>2015072
Either put it on one/two charges like >>2015383 said or imo, put a fucking cooldown between uses. Like a second or so before you can dash again.

Another fix would be to make it so you can only dash where you're looking, but I don't think it would be enough

Well bros, this is it for me. I've played The Finals sporadically since Season 1.

After reaching level 80 this season and hitting Emerald 2x in a row, I don't think this game has anything else left to offer me. In retrospect: Is The Finals overall a good game? Yes. But, is The Finals overall a FUN game? Ehhhh. I've noticed too often recently that in the sweaty World Tour matches I'm in, my teammates are regularly below level 40, and even in some cases- as low as level 20, and even level 10.

That is NOT fun. And, let's be honest- this sort of godawful, unfair matchmaking is a core fixture of The Finals and will continue to be so in the future.

I really can't abide by it any longer. However, will all of you here continue to suffer through it? And if so, for how much longer?

I'm out, my boys. Good night and good luck.

You absolutely can, because no one gives a shit to know one way or another

What do you think is better overall, the ARN or the LH1? When I play light I like to have some range and use the mobility to quickly set up crossfires with my teammates.

>>2020985
Arn unless you have a controller or godly recoil control for the lh1

>>2020985
ARN is by and far the superior generalist option. At the end of the day, you need to be able to face magdump in a spray and pray.

>>2020985
ARN is superior but you should be running the 93R for everything besides long range beaming.

>>2020985
if strictly talking about ARN vs LH1, the ARN beats it out
but overall, like >>2021263 said, the 93R beats both out

>>2020985
ARN > 93R > LH1
You need to be way too precise and laser-accurate with the LH1 just to get slightly better results

>>1976478
How the hell do you people seriously enjoy this game? While it's a fun game, it's not particularly skill-based, and if anything most matches feel as though they are decided by pure luck and chance simply because, for example, purple team with it's lineup of massively negative k/d shitters got lucky enough to 3rd party you while you were too busy fighting off orange team from stealing your cashout.

Getting 3rd partied in DA FINALZ doesn't feel fun or thrillingly tense and suspenseful like it does in Hunt: Showdown or Tarkov, because it really doesn't feel like "Oh man, I just got 3rd partied because I was outskilled", it feels more like "Oh man, I just got 3rd partied because <insert team here> spawned within 15 feet of me during the last 20 seconds of my cashout".

I feel bad for any of you here that take an RNG game like The Finals seriously enough to play ranked. I cannot imagine betting my ELO or MMR in a game that is about 70% luck and 30% skill lmao

I'm sorry you can't hear the loud as fuck sound it makes when a cashout is being stolen. I'm sorry you're not running utilities that help prevent a steal. I'm sorry you play light and explode the second any AOE effect goes off so you can't dare to actually defend the cashout.

>>2021950
Yeah, you did get 3rd party because you were outskilled. You just don't realize it because the game is chaotic with a ton going on at once and a beguiling sense of familiarity that ends up fucking up noobs like you. It's understandable until you start bitching like this, then it's just a matter if you fucking off if you're so dead set on being a bitch before you even ask a fucking thing you retard.

>>2021950
it's more with how the spawn logic is incredibly fucked and actively pushes 3rd parties. Doesn't help that doubling the last and letting the team of shitters pass is still a thing and the only time they did something to combat this, it was by misatke and reverted in a hotfix. I've always hated how you can do everything right and still lose because a team of mouthbreathers decided to join in on the fray and fuck us over.

>>2021955
nta but I've played ranked a lot, got diamond every season and this shit is pretty common, especially when there is a team with known good people in the lobby. Nobody will focus them and every other cashout will be 3rd party bonanza where i'm essentially playing quick cash. And then they double last and let the guys with 0-6 through

>>2021962
>And then they double last and let the guys with 0-6 through
Heheheheheheh, every fucking time
Newsflash pal: kills don't mean dick at the end of the day. Sure, it's the simplest and more assured way of going for a steal, but what matters if that you cash out, and you simply got outplayed. Maybe spend some time practicing in Head to Head with doing stall steals and defenses instead of just going bang bang bang shoot em up cops and robbers and losing the 3rd Party Shootout for the 5000th time.

Seriously, you've only got yourself to blame, and it's Diamond players like you that make it so nobody respects Ranked.

>>2021961
again, you don't get outskilled when you get 3rd partied, you get outnumbered. Even just losing one teammate to another, unrelated team, to the fight is a huge loss. Obviously you can prevent it a bit but the nature of the game encourages this behaviour quite a lot and you can't always be prepared, especially if you're already engaging a team that's attempting a steal.

It's been 2 years and they still haven't figured out that last vaults should spawn 50-60 meters from the finals cashboxes to allow for a split instead of spawning 150 meters with 30 seconds on the clock.

>>2021969
>it's the spiteful anon that replies every post with "lol ur bad git gud rankoids amirite?"
ah my bad then, sorry if we were trying to have a discussion, carry on

>>2021972
I've nothing against Ranked, I'm saying that players like you that get to Diamond and then still don't understand the basics give it a bad name
>we were trying to have a discussion
Evidently not, given that you're trying to immediately escape criticism and differing perspectives within that discussion by going all schizo. I guess go cry in the D*scord until they edit spawns for the bajillionth time.

>>2021975
stay mad fag

>>2021961
> Yeah, you did get 3rd party because you were outskilled.
Megacope, shut your ass up
I guarantee when you get fucked up the ass by a team of negative kda shitters that spawned on top of you, you'll never think for a single second "Woah. I just got outskilled, fair play to those guys!!!"
Lol clown

>>2021981
don't bother replying, he's a retard that lurks here who's main retort is "git gud" and will be argumentative about literally anything.

>>2021981
>you'll never think for a single second "Woah. I just got outskilled, fair play to those guys!!!"
Actually do, kinda. Rather, I accept that it's my fault that I overextended and let a team that's been performing worse catch me with my pants down. I've basically stopped having any issues with third partying after I've changed my gameplan more to proper defense instead of just trying to gun them down.

I mean, come on man: you already know they'll have a health advantage in a straight fight, but trying to steal the objective that actually decides if you make it to the next round takes a significant amount of time and raises alarms. Play around the thing that actually matters. Stop thinking "I deserved to win, the game robbed me" and actually play by the parameters of the game.

>>2021982
Anon, why are you even here if you're just gonna call everyone you disagree with the same person and reduce disagreement in the discussion down to just being "argumentative." If you want to just shout what you want into the void, you're better suited for a blog than a forum.

no no no u don't get it
it takes 200% skill for a team going 0/4, 1/5, and 2/7 to double up a cashbox and unfairly make it to the final round and fight against a team going 7/4, 8/3, and 5/0
surely the 1st team won't get wafflestomped

>>2021998
Don't worry anon. You'll make it to the final round and find your answer some day.

>>2021998
>>2022006
surely, the 1st team will be able to win The Finals(tm) in a team vs team scenario where no 3rd partying is available!!
the finals is all skill and no luck, baby!! i love sucking embark's cock and their terrible spawn system, poggers! that's not embark's fault, that's totally mine!!

>>2022007
Hey buddy, I think you got the wrong door
The /v/ - Video Games club is two blocks down

I think nobody would be as upset about third partying if it was also in the final round. Letting or even helping a weaker team third party a double cashout is something I'm guilty of as well. It's not easy to do and the reward is basically a sure win so it's a decent challenge. But let's not pretend they have a shot at actually winning, nor that it's sportmanship behaviour.
It's a format issue. It's also why boosting and exchanging wins is (allegedly) an issue in ranked at all. It's trivial to win if half the lobbby is on your side and impossible if two teams focus you, intentianally or not. Non-shit teams mind you.
Hovever I'm not gonna blame the people that do it. Nor scrutinize skill required to do it and avoid it. Not even embark for making it possible.
I solely blame Nexon.
I have no idea what it is with this publisher, but every game they make, get their hands on or even lose because employees stole it (yes this happened), get infested with the same kind of people; ones that will find a way to make the game as unfun as possible for everyone else, organizing better than most political parties to do it, but also reliably spend good money on edgy cosmetics in the game. Nexon's just like a jinx for me or some kind of seal of aproval that attracts these people. Don't get me wrong, every game has disbalanced and exploitable aspects, but not every playerbase makes it a huge issue. Must be even worse on asian server but fuck, I can't be the only one noticing people focus more on winning by any means necessary more than actually playing for fun recently?

PTFO goddamnit

How about a throwing/melee hybrid weapon? Like a hatchet you swing with M1 and toss with M2. Would be worse than the sword up close and worse than the throwing knives at range but make up for it with variety.

>>2023671
Nah. After a certain point it's just throwing knives with a quicker quick melee. The closest I could see is if they added something like, throwable hammers for Heavy. Something that does some quick bashes up close but can be right clicked to hurl in a way that does a bit of splash damage. Heavy doesn't really have a melee weapon that requires a barrage of attacks, nor a splash damage weapon that explodes on contact, so it'd be a pretty good fit for those things.

The only reservations would be that it treads a bit on the Spear, and it goes a bit farther into the fantasy angle, whereas all the other weapons have so far kept themselves exaggerated but grounded.

I play Heavy. I use fleshbang. I use pyro gernade. I use spear. I use wall run through move. I kool aid man through wall, flashbangign and star wars kid dance with spear; yuor team is wiped

>>2023937
>dashes inside your ass
>spray and pray
tch nothing personnel, fattie

>>2023937
>I use pyro nade
why, I can sorta get behind pyro mines in specific cases, but pyro nades are the ultimate noob gadget

>>2023965
Cuz the Pyro Nades are good

>>2023976
meh at best, but are you having fun? If yes, then keep going, I don't give enough of a shit to police your loadouts.

>>2023983
Not him. I'm just corroborating the use of Pyro Nades. They're pretty good. The instant damage is worth it, and it's got use for on-demand area denial, and differing playstyles easily end up making that more valuable than Pyro Mines

>>2023983
I like to brust through and just bilned and flame and cause hell while I dance amidst fire and blind people

My dnance is baeutiful...I explode all over and twirl, the hit markers goijg crazy....people are mad but my beautful dance continues until the rom is empty...the phenix spear dance of bilnd...

>>2023996
hey as long as you find value in them, good on you

I however, stopped using pyro nades because I was getting too many kills with them. team kills

I smear shit on my chest....and begni the dance....the wall expoldes and I apear, stoicly moving sensually whipping my spear aroubd and hittign everyone nerciecleseley

Nah, they're great regardless, buttnut.

>>2024360
ok, no need to get defensive about it, youse whatever the hell you want

>>2024750
And there's no need for you to get so dismissive about it
>use whatever the hell you want
I'll use the Pyro Nade, cuz it's great, and there's no argument to the contrary

Never before have I played a game where I felt so much fear seeing the words "Major Mid-Season Update" and then relief when it has nothing for balancing

>>2024778
ok? I never said you can't? You have free will

>>2024859
they really should have though, they won't because the major is this close and they're probably stretched thin with arc raiders coming soon too. Wierd choices of timeframes
still no spawn rework

>>2024870
This is why you're a buttnut. Stop acting like a buttnut.

>>2024980
Why are you so insecure

>>2025005
Why are you such a buttnut

Wow this new LTM is so fucking shit lmao

>>2025376
Nah this is legitmately probably the worst game mode i've ever played in an FPS. Why the fuck is it a weird FFA instead of just like a standard infection game mode. Wow this is so unfun

>>2025376
>FFA
>only one person can win
>but when you become a zombie, you can't hurt your teammates (you can hook them and it's very frustrating when the sruvivor is getting mosquito bitten to death)
Honestly, who the fuck came up with this shit? Just copy halo's infection
Also the fact they're "ghouls" and not zombies makes me think that this mode was primarly thought for the chinese version of the finals

The pumpkin smash think is very good though, it's not unfair like the wheel of misfuortune

This isnt your finale yet, get up!

>don't actually have to play the crappy event gamemode to unlock the rewards
Oh thank goodness.

>>2028258
>bumping while posting this

I'm re-downloading the game right now, I only played for like 10 minutes when it first came out.

Anything I should know as a new player, things to look out for. I just read someone mention that ranked doesn't matter, is it the same as FN?

>>2028948
>things to look out for
Biggest thing is to just have fun and focus the objective. They've done a bit to shore up onboarding lately.
>that ranked doesn't matter
Ranked is fine, at most it's just that each of the three main ways to play the game are played very differently. Ranked locks your loadout and punishes you for team wipes, so you need to form a plan around what people have and execute it well. World Tour is more anything goes, with big explosive events and free weapon swapping, so it's more about constant adaptation and having more overall game knowledge. Then Quick Play is basically a focused kill fest where everyone is attacking the same objectives with free and quicker respawning, so it's more about securing wipes.

Anything about Ranked """mattering""" or not is driven by two autists here. One idiot that thinks Ranked is the only true metric and tries to end any conversation with "muh Diamond." One idiot that thinks World Tour is the only true metric and tries to end any conversation with "muh rankoids." Both are morons that pursue a universal truth about which strategies """actually""" work. God help us all if a "Quick Play is the only true metric" anon arises.

>>2028948
No clue what FN is
i'd keep the game uninstalled desu

>>2028992
the anon who posted this is also one of the anons he claims not to be.
