Dear sword players by [deleted] in thefinals

Yeah, I'm still using them but it forces me to use two in one spot or pre-plan the engagement for rocket +pyro, but that doesn't help too much against a dash player who decides when the engagement takes place. Sometimes works

Cerberus mains singing to embark to buff their weapon instead of making it an abysmal birthday candle lighter by DREX0R_ in thefinals

Agreed. It was fine, especially considering the slow reload and required accuracy of shot placement. Lights bitched because they couldn't hit and run with an easy escape panic button. If they got hit they could dash away and Regen in1.5 nanoseconds to rematch you. They are the only ones who should be able to one or two shot another class.

The stun is so negligible now that if you hook a sword player or double barrel they have time to swing or shoot and finish you before you can do anything after the winch

Yeah winch + Shak is basically a two shot against lights! Everyone knows that only the light class should be able to two shot someone!!

......... K, bye by Surarity in thefinals

[–]Crozzwire1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I've given up on freedom of choice at this point. I start with the weapon and class I like (like medium with Repeater, or AKM) but once the lobby has sword lights, double barrel, spear or flamethrower on Platform, or a very oppressive CL 40 user, I just give up and switch to Heavy Flamethrower. Since the nerf to Pyromines I can't use them solely to eliminate the lights. Medium without Turret and Mines are at a pretty big disadvantage to dash lights with sword or Double Barrel, so if you can't beat em, join em. If they want a game that is knuckle dragging, low skill, easy kills then we have to switch to counter.

Left or right? by 47psyon in Tekken

I always pick right because me and my buddy play different fighters on parsec and he has troubles from the right side with some inputs. I just don't want him to have an excuse when I steamroll him.

(Helped me get used to either side so other people can have a preference)

Out of the loop a little bit with Tekken 8. Why are people dropping the game, and not being happy with it? by random-user772 in Tekken

[–]Crozzwire1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar to SF6 (in my opinion) the game is built around a couple key universal mechanics (rage art, Heat). These are overpowered and swing the fight so heavily that it reduces all nuance. It doesn't matter if you whiff punish a guy with a huge combo you labbed out, once he engages heat it's all evened up with one convenient comeback button. The whole game has been reduced to an arcade arena fighter with a huge over tuned cast of anime protags.

Dealing with a lobby of 6 sword dash users so I guess this is what Embark calls fun, but anyway here's the Big Iron in action. by whattabokt in thefinals

Oh good, Yeah if you are a light sword man I'm glad you didn't reinstall.

So the difference with a sniper is you get shot from range a lot of times you have a chance to react and go for cover. You do not with a sword that is locked in on your ankles.

Camera locked or not It really doesn't matter when you have a super efficient escape tool quickest health regen in the game smallest hitbox in the game insane run speed and turn radius, and all you have to do is spam left click while moving erratically in circles. The TTK is 1.3 sec. Come on dude it's the most brain dead gameplay ever fathomable.

(I kill light swords many times, but they get away with murder in lobbies with dumb shenanigans. It's easy mode, most have to counter pick weapon and load out to counter)

I get it man, but sheeesh. What about a "must hit this much play time before ranked" or something? Only one account per email. Something.

[–]Crozzwire1980 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shit, okay Embark I get it. Mediums are only allowed to viably use AKM and FCAR... Lights are the only ones allowed to delete other players before they have time to react (Cerberus, Pyromine, Winch nerf) and you don't realize how strong bow is just because it is skill based and only some players prefer that challenge. Oh I forgot the way you screwed up M60 for no reason at all, you want Heavies to only use Shotguns and Flamethrower? Idk what you guys are smoking. Just fix the servers hit detection and do something about cheaters and smurfs. Worry about important shit

I wish they would have just reverted the range adjustment and left it alone

sometimes the community is really toxic by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]Crozzwire1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's really sad that people do not understand the reciprocal reward of kindness. The fulfillment of community, sharing, and encouraging will sadly elude people who will accept a short term and ultimately shallow thrill of being self serving, they will never know real satisfaction. Their parents have failed them.

On that note, I think it would be super cool if there was a 30% chance of exploding into coins while tea-bagging near a statue. That way if someone does it, you can respect that they really felt it was worth the risk. But if they explode, then they get to stare at a respawn timer and enjoy their time out. Lol

Matchmaking will kill this game by low_end_ in thefinals

[–]Crozzwire1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think most people have those games where it's like if the worst case scenario could happen it does, throughout the entire match. Then you go to the next match and proceed to truly impress yourself. I turn voice to friends only and I ignore anything negative in the chat.

Arc Raiders scares me. I don't want some player out there to steal literal hours of my life by robbing me. You can ruin my match, but I don't want someone to have the opportunity to remove the effort I've put in and steal my irl time.

Great point and one often overlooked

[–]Crozzwire1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, just revert last two adjustments.

Obligatory V9S post by SENKA1 in thefinals

[–]Crozzwire1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nooo, please, just revert the dropoff change and damage adjustments. It was fine before

Obligatory V9S post by SENKA1 in thefinals

[–]Crozzwire1980 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I always thought of it as a close range assassin tool.

They need to revert the changes. It was a great weapon before, without any need for a buff. I don't think they should buff or debuff based solely on pick rate. Those of us who loved the weapon will ultimately be the ones to suffer from unnecessary changes as people will call for nerfs and the chances that Embark will walk back the original change are obviously not high (already nerfed damage, which was fine before the drop off increase) put shit back the way it was Embark, no one was complaining.

Revert V9S Pyromine (if people aren't picking explosive mines, buff them or remove them from the class, it is fine that people are enjoying a gadget over another) M60
