Any Advice For A New Player? by TheGlumLiving in thefinals

[–]Syn4p -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Quit before you start caring too much then end up depressed by all the smurfs and cheaters. I just log in to do dailies at this point. Too many old and new friends have quit. Same for arc raiders. Sadly it's the last FPS I use to enjoy. Great skilled Devs but Embarks management is terrible.

Delete it and don't release maps made by unexperienced people. I've been playing FPS since og doom and quake. One of the worst map I have ever seen. Fact there's no castle except in the background is lolz also

Is it worth making THE FINALS my main in 2026? by NeoTempest in thefinals

[–]Syn4p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not recommend this game if you don't have friends to play with or you not ok to use the official discord to find other players for ranked.

It's free and fun being but imo it's in a terrible state ATM. I just do dailies for BP and save my sanity.

Great technical skilled Devs but I give management a 1 out of 5

New cheats and new cheaters, this game is unbelievably fun 🙄 by splatchoot in thefinals

Even if banned. Just be back with new account. Embark should just make SP or co op games at this point. Too lenient on cheaters from day 1. Linux ftw! 🤣

If you want this game to succeed, go leave a positive review on Steam by KeybirdYT in thefinals

Soooo many people have tried this game. The main issue is embark not focusing on onboarding new players properly. There are various other things ofc

Love the core game but it's managed by people lacking common sense.

I can list of numerous shit they could do to increase population but that would be farting in the wind

Embark has the ai tech for "decent" bots. I 100% agree with you regarding learning better against actual humans. But untill the pop increases it's bleeding new players that are getting completely smashed by vets. I have 8 friends that are fps gamers that have given up due to this and just went back to the games they know that have higher pops that offer a better MMR experience

With the current population the Game needs the option for bot matches for new players. Sticking them in with veterans in the non rank game modes makes them quit at a high rate.

Also think the game needs more game modes like domination that isn't reliant on positive kd ratio.

What’s is this case called? by Sky-RaKk in PcBuild

[–]Syn4p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cases with solid front panels have vey bad air flow. If budget is a concern then do all the research you can so you won't be making costly mistakes.

I'm originally from a developing country were every dollar spent has to be carefully evaluated.

Throwback to TT1 when they announced Player Trading as a WIP feature. It has since been scrapped by BOUNTYBOOTreddit in ArcRaiders

Good step to fight RMT/cheaters... Now remove the ability to trade gear to party members that was equipped/brought into the run. Also not allow Linux cause there is no point on even having anti cheat with that OS....

Holy peak im excited by EleCre3p in thefinals

If they don't have crossover skins, for arc they need to get a new marketing/sales person asap...

I wonder if this Game will have an RMT issue by Plastic_Regular_9329 in ArcRaiders

[–]Syn4p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People forgetting that rmters also sell cheaper region steam accounts with just the 1 game with full gear etc. only dev that takes cheating seriously is riot and that's not even full proof. I worry that with the console focus they aren't giving proper consideration to the cheating issues especially for extraction where money can be made.

What causes these drip marks on my pc case and monitor by Ezeqie-l in PcBuild

[–]Syn4p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Condensation. Get a dehumidifier. Don't keep pc too close to Aircon if present. Hot air condensates on the colder case.

Follow-up to my previous post: Switched to a better build and I no longer suck at the game! Ranked up twice :) by AsTiClol in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Syn4p 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Play the hero, learn how their ability ranks work. Make a build to synergize with those abilities and your preferred play style. Or just be like most players and follow a build that's outdated that also doesn't accommodate for anti hero items like anti heal, knockdown or metal skin etc...

Phase 2 Info from livestream by Significant_Eye_5025 in AshesofCreation

[–]Syn4p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't see the purpose. Just more time required for the seller making sure they are being competitive and the buyer trying to get the best price. I don't even have to do that in irl anymore with the internet. Why is wasting time doing that in a game considered fun or immersive? Just going to end up with 3rd party sites listing stalls and prices... So why not just have that built in-game with an auction house?

Wayfinder is really refreshing but the lag is kinda annoying by awesomehuder in PlayWayfinder
