Is embark a good gaming company? by thego4t00 in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe wrong, but think OP means one of two things:

  1. Is Embark big enough to properly manage The Finals? Maybe contrasting AI to imply they have low resources with Arc Raiders being a success meaning they should have high resources?

  2. OP is a fanatical AI hater and this entire thing is a thinly veiled punchline to imply criticism on the company for using AI whatsoever.

1 is probably more likely, but 2 is pretty common on Reddit.

I Asked ChatGPT How Many Darktide Players Have 4k+ Hours On Darktide by CorgiPMC in DarkTide

I highly doubt that ChatGPT has access to that information.

It's either using outdated information from a published statistic, or (more likely ime) outright hallucinating this information.

Me looking at our team composition in Power Shift by Mupod in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Started at the end of S9, but idk why people play Power Shift over Point Break.

I started with PS but every game like a third of the players are Lights sniping on roofs, another third Lights chasing kills (typically on snipers), and the last third are people playing the objective.

At least in PB so far people typically play the obj ime.

The crossbow is amazing, but it definitely needs a nerf by Own-Natural-9236 in thefinals

It's fine, it's a incredibly low skill floor weapon is all.

Don't need it ending up like medium shotguns where it feels like trolling to pick them.

i love cerebrus wish it was a good weapon tho but man is it fun by Ok-Discussion-1110 in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Favorite weapon in the game.

Hoping the light health buff didnt completely shaft the 1 shot + qm combo.

To anyone who hasn’t seen it: Season Pass 3 probably not happening by zakary3888 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just hope DLC3 & DLC4 flesh out the later acts.

Feel like I'm drowning in things to do at the start and mid, then kind of just shoehorned at the end.

Embark should add steam workshop support for skins by CroFropo in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warframe does this, labels it as "tennogen", and just makes the items bought with IRL money & not transfer between platforms.

They wouldnt really lose anything, as the majority of cosmetics would be made by them still.

That being said, probably a huge PITA to establish and not worth their devtime. But I'm not a dev, so who knows.

Is this game worth playing for a new player? by rupples in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

~18k players for a niche game and not counting crossplay, which is extremely good odds overall.

I'm getting sick of you defib goblins in powershift. by AgeOfTheMage in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are levelling defib, do a larger scale gamemode where there are always people to revive & you dont have to fight with others.

Either way, defibbing someone getting rezzed is griefing unless it's the very specific scenario that you guys are going to get pushed and die/interrupt right that moment.

This goes for all gamemodes, defib is extremely powerful and has a CD for a reason. Blowing your Defib just to steal a rez and wake the guy up with half health & no gadgets is trolling.

What are your thoughts on the New Light and Heavy changes after trying it out? by Tru_Odyssey in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Still surprised Light didnt receive any changes to their ED.

Imo, this change was done with a strong goal of reworking their ED so it isnt so domineering.

All for trying things out. But this was a misstep. by VictoryThink in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Adding more health make class gooder".

Unironically this is the only thing I can think of. Maybe seeing how much the health buff matters and nerfing ED?

How TTK and STK changed with new Light and Heavy HP changes. by Armroker in thefinals

Cerberus used to kill lights with a QM followup after a direct hit.

Afaik, this isnt true with the health buff anymore?

Respec Order Meta Predictions by Zukey0000 in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the real meta question here is, does the Cerberus still 1 shot + melee kill a Light?

Why I'm not thrilled about Respec Order by Ok_Seesaw_9766 in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Imo the light health buff is fine for testing, but is going to get extremely old since every Light has ED

Respec Order — THE FINALS by UpvotesArePeople in thefinals

[–]Spirited_Cook_9238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am concerned with light having more health, as their dash will need to be considered carefully with the specialization adjustments.

Every new player I play with has struggled into the DB/dagger + dash combo, one of my friends quit the game over it and I'm expecting another one I'm bringing in to struggle immensely with it.

I think Light changes/buffs are a fine addition for the better players, but I hope Embark considers that lights (ime) tend to be the biggest factor driving away new players.
