I haven't had a chance to play yet but I've seen a few people say that reduced movement speed. Hopefully that's not true - it was definitely tricky to fight really good Lights who had a good grasp of their tools but if that was the catalyst I'd rather they have adjusted their health or damage

Should be able to adjust it back in the settings. I haven’t played yet, but read a few people saying it’s exactly the same as beta once you change that.

People just got reset to a default FOV. I've put some hours into it and its just as fast as ever. Balance changes feel good though flamethrowers still suck rear end to play against.

I just played a couple rounds making sure to adjust my FOV before starting and the movement felt exactly the same to me as it did in the beta. Granted I didn't spend tens of hours playing the open beta but the complaint seem overblown. Can't speak for the balance concerns because I only got a few rounds in. Heavy seems fun, it's awesome just kool-aid maning through a wall that someone you're fighting with is hiding behind and flattening them or catching them in the middle of a reload.

unfortunately it looks like they caved and unlike the beta they put in overtuned RAA with input strengths that I measured stronger than apex PC: https://www.reddit.com/r/thefinals/comments/18dtlff/aim_assist_changes/ it'll be fun playing against mnk players for a while i guess until you hit a wall of RAA players

poe meater posted:What's up with the mixed reviews on steam? Riled up gamers convinced themselves that between the beta and now they nerfed the entire game and made everyone move slower and jump lower and etc etc. Devs have replied and they changed nothing about the movement but the default FOV was lowered by quite a lot which I guess makes it feel slower or something. I jacked mine up to 85 or so before I played and it feels exactly the same to me  Lotta complaints about balance issues too but the game's been out for like a day so I assume these are beta players who are mad their favorite thing got changed. Edit: Oh also I have seen a lot of complaints about the price of cosmetics but it seems like fairly industry standard prices at this point which is to say, it's exorbitant, but it's a free game and it's cosmetics so whatever. explosivo fucked around with this message at 22:27 on Dec 8, 2023 |

Anything different from the beta? I'm just gonna finish up Tribes 3 before I become The Finals contestant #42069. And as a reminder, if you're on comms, call your flashes and gasses.

Not sure what all the changes are but Medium’s AK still dominates. Seems like Light got some damage buffs. Speed feels the same to me

Seeing a lot more teams missing players compared to the beta. Also yeah the FOV thing is really funny, when I tried playing last night I was super confused while the game suddenly felt way more sluggish lmao.

I love that they chose to go with an art style that causes the Big Body models to look like dumpy office workers. It's a nice break from every other game's Space Marine Tough Guy archetype.

ive been having good success with the turret. makes a great distraction and does enough damage to potentially tilt a fight in your favor the start-up time is really slow, so you cant panic drop it, but it works well enough for its intended role imo

remember turrets can be placed on walls/ceilings I've seen a lot of players place defensive turrets looking face-on to a main choke, and it's a really bad idea b/c it turns the turret into a speedbump that is easily plinked down safely. generally you want to place a turret against a wall or at a really shallow angle to a choke, so that when the turret takes contact from the enemy you can swing out and 2v1 w/ the turret while they are far from cover. turrets are still probably pretty weak even if you do this, but at least you're maximizing it

I find the turrets main value is to occupy attention so that you can then pop out and murder people. Even if all it does is empty someones magazine its valuable, but for that it needs to be placed on approaches, *not* on the objectives themselves. If they see you and the turret there they are just gonna shoot you. They need to see the turret first.

was messing with the akm in practice range for the ads recoil system the game uses set spray patterns, and if you match the spray pattern the gun is a laser beam. like apex, if you move the crosshair fast enough horizontally (or in circles), the horizontal and vertical recoil is completely removed. unlike apex, this system requires much faster movement to activate and only really applies if you are strafing the opposite direction to someone at <= 20m. making circles with your reticle is not viable. the akm you want to pull down-right for 4 bullets, down-left for 7, down for 10, then right for the rest while this type of recoil system can be fun, there are games like rust that moved away from the system because lots of low lives will script the recoil for a large advantage.

what's the point of keeping the round going if there's literally not enough time to take a cashbox before its current owners win

i think if someones actively stealing the cashbox it goes into over time? i think thats how it worked in beta anyway

sledgehammer heavy is the best. i love surprising entire teams by chopping away one side of the building they're sitting on/in get more kills with it than with a gun too because i get super panicky and can't aim right when i'm getting shot in pretty much any fps (  )

This game is fun from a gunplay aspect but it does commit a cardinal sin for an objective based shooter where it takes a long time for an objective phase to be completed but full credit goes to whoever is holding the objective at that time. So if you have an objective that takes 3 minutes to fill then it's functionally 30 seconds of actual objective based combat and 2:30 of loving around.

Yeah it has forever been a terribel design but people love to defend it. I do agree that the cashout at the end should be worth a lot, but holding the cashout for 95% of the objective should be worth something
