      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

  • @hotsause911
    @hotsause911 3 месяца назад +4

    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.

    • @h33LingZ
      @h33LingZ 3 месяца назад +1

      gold in his word. True af buddy. 30 sec respawn time sucks. I really hope they will reduce it to 4-5 seconds, with a bit closer spawns. Not too close, but not too far. It will give a second breathe to the game

    • @THiiXY
      @THiiXY  3 месяца назад +1

      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

    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.

  • @ryans3795
    @ryans3795 3 месяца назад +1

    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.

    • @THiiXY
      @THiiXY  3 месяца назад

    @Nykho 3 месяца назад +2

    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 !

    • @THiiXY
      @THiiXY  3 месяца назад +1

      100% couldn't agree with you more, I think that we have a really nice solid foundation of a game here, sure there are some things annoying on a deeper level (balance etc) but really I think we can get over it most of the time, it's not like anything is completely busted etc, just kind of annoying. But yeah I'm a real nerd too for the data side of things, I'd love to even see an expansion on stats :D

    @cryptochronos4099 3 месяца назад +6

    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.

    Couldn’t agree more with Embark over reaching when it comes to nerfing.

    I wish they would improve the movement in this game, I know we spoke about it briefly but the fact that they remove super glides and the ability to zipline jump during the second beta just kills the game for me a bit, I feel like bringing down the movement for skill expression to make the barrier of entry in this game a little bit of a downer, game developers need to understand that coddling casual players will just make people who tend to be better at FPS games bored and return to games like apex like me and quiet a lot of people I know from the community.

    There's an idea that I have. 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 like competitive modes in games but my only issue with it is when the game gets super competitive at higher ranks and with metas included, games are played more like chess than the game they are. The finals has too many fun physics and gadgets to be reduced to a meta chess game where you can’t deviate from meta.

    • @THiiXY
      @THiiXY  3 месяца назад

      I agree with you but at the same time there’s beauty in chess, in that there’s so many different outcomes. I would say not to worry as much, and the reason why is because if you take CounterStrike for example; the game is very limiting to what you can do. Yes there’s smokes, moli, boosts etc. but at the end of the day, you can break a wall to get a unique angle or throw a barrel into a player etc. that slight randomness aspect is still going to be there in this game and it makes the higher levels more interesting imo

    personally i want to see them have an option for ranked with role queue HML (1 heavy, 1 medium, 1 light on each team). This will make balancing easier and takes away meta HHM, MMH, MMM which just crushes all but the very very best light players. They can keep the open queue for ranked that they currently have but not everyone enjoys playing with or against the current meta, and role queue would help with that.

    I think for the APS, instead of consuming 40% make it 15% or 10%. It’s way more balanced and strong that way in my opinion, you’d still get 7 or 10 APS missiles depending on the 15% or 10%. And maybe, just maybe.. reduce the cooldown time a tiny bit.

    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.
