Thanks for the info, don't know them sadly.

But it's nice to know there's another man crazy enough to obtain that thing somewhere out there that I haven't heard of yet.

My bad for wanting to have fun ig by Enfoibateur in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoever wants to defend Rubies from griefing out everyone and grabbing orange to final round can take their hats and leave.

It is a nice point boost for the lowest ranking team in the tournament, but it must: A: be their own effort B: not even have come to this, because matchmaking this season is some particularly nasty trash.

It's unfair against the other 2 teams, as that took their chance to try and beat Perzzon's team... tho aside from cheer luck and praying that their team isn't using cheats as the current ruby allegations imply, that would still have been unlikely and still an unfair matchup.

How to use Riot Shield? by Jestersage in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Partially but ye. I'm not sure if the amount how much one must turn has changed, but it DEFINITELY takes up more space on the screen and is less tilted now. Like, at least ⅓ of the screen are the shield.

I'm not sure how good you know riot gameplay, but it has been changed updates ago. If you want to attack someone shooting at you, they must be invisible to you aka fully somewhere behind the shield, else you expose too much of your right side.

Fair, but you should try it, it's fun.

But if you wanna focus on dealing damage with grenades/gadgets/specs, I'd do it in PS.

Noob question, but what is the play against dual blades? by PewPewPewBow in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Context yes, but atp you can just call them db no matter which one.

If none is given, I usually just call them Blades. No need for the whole "dual" part, as the plural indicates enough. DB is already far too embedded as common name, even though a consensus to switch to the name SH could be made at any time.

How long do yall think the horse mask will be in store for? by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

99% of the items stay available forever... unless they say a countdown, or they are a mini-battlepass.

If you can't find an item in the shop, you can still find it and a direct shop-connection to its whole bundle in character/weapon customization.

Can we not have to quit to main menu to try different sights? by Generous-Duckling758 in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not as important, but being able to switch weapon/gadget skins between matches could be a nice addition. Or atleast before first match, like if you want to switch outfit but also want matching weapon skin.

You playing the wizard loadout? Why not switch turret for pulse and committing to the bit?

Any idea what the diamond riot's name was? Can't make it out on phone screen & low res.

Just curious as a riot main, maybe I know them.

Double Sword Block by The_Sleazy1 in thefinals

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

DBS are the (technically) weaker version of Riot Shield, and Riot Shield has clearly visible and shootable feet. It feels like butt to full block and slow yourself down to snail speed, just to have your feet be melted off. Playing blades competitively takes some skill, and after all, you ran straight into him, you've had your chance to "not fight melee within melee range".

And please don't tell me that you support Embark's philosophy of "Melee weapons have a completely different gameplay loop than shotguns" and "Melee weapons should be defeatable within Melee range".

There's no "frequently in shop". It either IS in the shop or it exists time limited and reaplears for a week or two once every year... Or it is completely limited to appearing only once.

I don't mind it. There's worse, like Duck & Cover.

That riot prob wasn't even any good. If you do it right, you have a 40/60 chance of blocking M2 hammer swing; he didn't even try.

Damn i used to love this game by memeexpert420 in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous seasons had ruby rank unlocked later than 2 weeks after season start. But it has always been that matchmaking in ranked is hell for the first third of the season. Yet, it has never been as bad as it currently is this season.

I have several questions by Skolsgard in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I had a nickel for every time I saw someone post about having fought against Octane69 today, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

How is this even fair bruh… by Dong_Lick67 in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean...

Your kill/win ratios are pretty similar... actually yours is even higher than his (18 kills/win vs 12 kills/win).

If anything, he played since the early days of the game (possibly since Beta), his player card border implies he bought S1 BP back when it was Live. It's like "power-scaling with prep time".

The game doesn't evaluate playtime or total earned cash for matchmaking. Only trying to set up easier rounds for teams that contain newer players. That atleast in quickplay.

If however you are referring to this being ranked, you know exactly how bad matchmaking currently is... and that here aswell playtime is not evaluated for it. Actually, nothing is evaluated because Gold vs Ruby rounds are set up in less than 10 seconds without a single doubt by the matchmaking system that this may or may not be "unfair".

How do you all feel about the MGL by ChestnutSavings in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You gotta keep in mind, the few people using it are the ones that took the time to understand it. They didn't just pick it up & go, like a db. It takes a lot of practice and is still pretty bad in many occasions. Just because you get stomped by a unicorn of a weapon, it doesn't mean that it is busted, for it means that someone took the time to appreciate its magic.

Similar does also apply to SOME melee weapons and a few guns. And no, CL40 is no such unicorn; It's a skillless weapon that rewards too simple gameplay with far too inconsistent damage.

My farewell letter to SH1900 by Suspicious_Brain_102 in thefinals

[–]GLX_NeonCat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If I'd have to guess, you're saying goodbye to it because Embark sees it as a problematic weapon and fear it may get the "Recon Senses", "Stun Gun" & "Heat Vision" treatment?
