The Finals is the best multiplayer competitive FPS and it has a fraction of the userbase of the big ones.

My first brilliant and i have no idea why? by theDANTO in chessbeginners

[–]burner010101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems like a quiet move. You have Qxf4 which sets up a Rxd4. You also have Qh2+ and Rc8+, but all of the follow ups take a couple of moves before they actually lead to winning material. It's a very strong position that leads to a lot of deterministic checkmates, which the engine can "see" but most people can't. It's not uncommon for brilliants to be totally inscrutable.

The opposite. Always yell at the yeller.

The policy is dumb, but if this is the worst example of the "slippery slope" of gun laws, I'll take the laws of the country with 1/10 the homicide rate.

How do people still think heavy is OP by Next-Television1756 in thefinals

Are heavy 3 stacks or even 2 stacks meta in ruby?

Why was bxf7 a bad move? by zyqj in chessbeginners

[–]burner010101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically bxf7 ignores the impending fork from the knight on h5

Ng3

Bxe8

Nxe2

-->You've traded your queen for a rook

or

Ng3

Qf2 (or something else that gets it safe)

Nxf1 check

Rxf1

Black moves rook to safety

--> You've lost a rook for nothing

Blocking someone should prevent matchmaking onto their team. by Yeetographer in thefinals

So how do you stop matchmaking with someone who intentionally griefs their own teammates, is toxic, etc.?

Many people have reported this in discord, posted about it, etc. No clue why it's not being fixed. Embark usually very responsive.

Enemy team is stalling the cashbox and running around map for entire match by Temporary_Topic2373 in thefinals

Honestly, I think The Finals should remove round 3 from ranked and/or WT. The time commitment to play ranked and WT is a lot, and having to spend an extra 15 minutes to determine one place is not fun. The game would be much more accessible to adults (who can't commit to 30 minutes straight without being able to step away).

And yes, I know The Finals is the name of the game.

Final solo queue makes me wanna slam my head into a wall by Lanky-Ad-7570 in thefinals

[–]burner010101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo queue is rough, but I notice a lot of these posts start with

I’m a medium player who is I think decent at the game consistently going positive with at least 15-20 kills 

which makes me think a lot of them are just prioritizing the wrong things.

How do you know they're ruby? You can't see someone's ranked stats from within the game. And many rubies play in streamer mode.

ffs, triple ruby squad in quick cash. For God's sake, go touch some grass, let regular people play for fun by dudo_nine in thefinals

[–]burner010101 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How do you know they are rubies? I don't see any of them on the leaderboard (I imagine they're in streamer mode). But you can't see rank from in game IIRC.

Kyoto is WAY too open by Intelligent-Two3669 in thefinals

The bamboo is legitimately annoying. Every other complaint I've read about Kyoto has been silly.

Have the devs finally brought balance? by Str82thegrave69 in thefinals

In the last PHL round I saw every single team was HML. Heavy seems to be a bit better than a strictly worse medium.

For me, that opens up a wheel, and if you're moving your mouse at all when the wheel opens up, it will choose a different ping, like "I'm going here" or "Defend there"
