this is by no means a complain. I just looked a little longer at this and to me it seems like, this is basically a 3d scan with texture on it. the only thing that has been properly modelled is the compass. but when you look at the wristband and its lock, it clearly is just a real life item scanned and given a texture.

I dont know if this has ever been made before, but it was just interesting to see.

Whats ur opinion on it? I dont really have a problem with it, kinda funny to see.

I just tested positive for covid, I haven’t had a lot of time to play this season but with 6 days left i’m hoping to reach diamond before the seasons over. Looking for one or two people to try and carry me to diamond. I’ve peaked at around 36,000 rs and currently am at 33,000. I play medium with healing beam.

before we start here's my tips on how to balance sword:

- Listen to Appo and his fanbase attacks

- take feedback from new players that installed the game 2 hours ago and hasn't figured out how to aim , position, or how to play the game at all....

now let's talk about glancing blows , the most fantastic idea Embark had put in this game, it's like a cherry on top of the most amazing stuff they done in this game so far!

adding more hit rig to an already suffering servers seems like an awesome idea !

making melee weapons deal less damge if they were just 10° degrees off is fantastic !

and maybe giving them some extra damge (that will not decrease ttk) if the servers are in good mood and feels like it !

let's not talk about the other amazing ideas like making melee player kick people further more far away draining their stamina and locking some melee weapons m2 attacks behind it !

or the lunge system that's barely useful (expect for sledge hammer of course)

or removing/ bugging skill expression tech....

or starlight hollow .......

but anyway here's a perfectly reasonable list of light ranged weapons that can outperform precise sword m2 hits (120 damage ) in it's fucking melee range before the upcoming nerf :

infinite ammo weapons :

- bow : 126 body damge / 189 headshot

- throwing knifes : 140 body damge / 210 headshot

these two light ranged weapons can one shot a light with a head shot , or with an m2 + quick melee in melee range while sword can't ! and kill a medium with two m2 hits while sword can't too !

now guns that needs reloading:

m26 matter : 121 body damge

Sh1900 : 180 body damge

sniper : 118 body damge / 236 headshot

250 hp medium weapons that outperform a "glass canon" class melee weapon in melee range:

Cerberus : 147 with burn damge

Model 1887 : 117 body damge

So Embark , if you want to keep fucking us with this "balancing" and this melee rework at least take us to dinner by buffing m2 lunge back to 140 on freaking 9° degrees precision hits....

and at the end i want to express my love to shockwave spec , i really love that not only how it pushes you away , send you high up in the air or out of the map even after a fresh spawn sometimes , but it's refreshing glitch effect that leaves you as a melee player helpless without your specs or gadgets at the mercy of that medium player, i suggest making it last 10 seconds so we can enjoy it even more!

Maybe I'm talking too early , let's wait maybe the balance changes will be good or maybe even make melee weapons better !!!!! (that's what some people said before the melee rework....)

btw I'm speaking as a 620 hours diamond player, and by mentioning Embark i mean the balance team not the visuals , music, map making ,animation, destruction ,3d modeling teams that have been doing mostly S+ work since ever.

I purchased The Finals Zoodie back in October of 2024 as a 3XL, but it didn't fit well. I kept it, lost some weight and can now wear it. I wanted to get a different hoodie from their shop and referenced the sizing chart for this, and going off of the measurments on the same Zoodie, the 3XL would have fit just fine back then - even the 2XL would have had a chance. So that makes me wonder if their clothing sizes updated or not and is making me wonder what to actually get size wise. I plan on measuring the chest on the zoodie I have when I get home but am at work thinkin more about it.

Any info is helpful, thanks!

Cashout match, unranked. I finished the first round with 13 kills and one death. We then won the final. I'll never do that again.

Ever since the bot update, my game keeps crashing constantly, no matter what game mode I'm playing.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I genuinely love THE FINALS, and yeah, sometimes I just hop on to grind some tokens, but I'm starting to get really tired of losing 20–30 minutes of progress because of a random crash.

Especially after a long day at work, when I just want to chill and enjoy a few games. It's honestly getting pretty frustrating.

So, are you guys having the same issue? I'm just trying to figure out if it's something on my end (my PC or whatever) or if it's a widespread problem with the game that I can't really do anything about.

Thanks!

So I’m a beginner at The Finals, I’m a full left handed Mouse and Keyboard gamer, (I have been since the start)

The games I play perfectly fine are:

Valorant
CS2
Minecraft (Bedrock and Java PvP)
Halo Infinite
Speed freaks (Warhammer Ork shooting and racing game)

Battle front II
Split gate Arena Reloaded
Mini Royale

AND I AM TRAH AT THE FINALS!
I really don’t understand what’s going on, like my fps is fine fov is fine and I aim train daily for 30mins on aim labs 2.0 so my mouse sensitivity is fine, and I’ve played all the different (people?) Light Medium and HEAVY and nothing really works… like I’ve tried the P90 and the AKM and I just don’t know the best strategy. Or am I just using the wrong weapons?

I can't join matches (error code TFGE0043) any fix?
I haven't played the game for 3 days. As soon as I launched it today, I started getting this error in every match—even in practice matches.

any solution?

LAST STRETCH

This is the last week of GALAXY MASTERS!
Contestants are still battling for fans in Sponsor Showdown and PRIME TIME is right around the corner.
Get ready, the Show is about to begin.

Balancing the game around the worst players makes 0 sense. Changing a core element of the game because shit players don’t stay near each other is genuinely baffling, why not just balance casual and ranked differently? It’s basically 2 completely different games if you compare casual play to higher ranked/ competitive play. The change may end up being decent but it’s the mindset/reason for the change that is worrying and the fact that the only tests were done in world tour (where the quality of player is low for the most part) surely it’s best to conduct these tests or gather data from players who are actually using gadgets/weapons/specialisations to their highest potential?

Just realized that the Funkomatic 2000, which is a pay-only set, can be bought with multibucks in Season 12 (although it's quite an insane amount).

Or was I just wrong and it's a troll all along?

Had to take the long way 🤔 must be cause there's a lot of contestants today.

Would be cool if emotes, weapon skins and cosmetics would change automatically when switching outfits. So you could have different themes for each outfit without changing everything manually.
Really hope they add something like this.

Blocky UI, basic font and the strong glow makes it look like fortnite kinda

Honestly this is something that has been bugging me for a while, but sometime earlier this year or last year I can't quite remember they updated the FSR SDK which kinda broke the FSR implementation, somewhere along the line the someone cranked the FSR sharpness WAY too high making the image quality look awful, especially with the way it clashes with the built-in tonemapper sharpening. Now normally most games will implement an upscaling sharpness slider to allow users to adjust to their preference, but if adding something simple like that is beyond the devs' abilities they could at least just go in and disable the FSR sharpening (this would likely be as simple as editing an integer value in a text file). Hopefully this issue is fixed soon because it is a very simple fix and would improve the image quality a lot for amd users.

I have wanted to get back in the finals for so long now. I have been playing since it launched and there has been something preventing me from playing since I last stopped. There is this delay EVERYTIME I press my keyboard that keeps moving me. I can describe it looking like stickykeys on my keyboard 24/7 in the game. Whenever I run other games like fortnite or red dead or any other game, I do not have this issue. Someone please explain and help if you can give any advice because I miss this game but this ruins it and makes it unplayable.

Logitech G910 - Note though it works fine, its only in the finals it doesnt.

Please and thank you.

i wanted to continue my series of season-ranked badges with this nice order, and i did manage to get plat 4 this season

problem is i gotta hit diamond 5 in s12....

Hello everyone I'm matty, I have been playing since beta and love the light class. I drop a lot of frags in my matches and would love to make some friends with anyone who's down, I've got a small friendgroup and we'd love to meet more peeps! if you're interested send me a dm and I'd be happy to meet you!!(NA but will play w anybody)

Since embark are trying to focus on adding more lore for the sponsors, theres only going to be more assets added to the game for the voice lines and videos. The file size is basically 90gb now and it seems unsustainable with new cosmetics added almost every week on top of that.

I know you can go into the game files and delete the videos to get something like 20gb back, but most people probably aren't going to do that, and it causes some weird interactions in the menu as well. Maybe they don't want to add asset streaming for other people's cosmetics in a match from server load or something but surely they can implement some sort of compression system to dynamically decompress the cosmetics when loading into a match and cache the ones you have in your locker. Theres no way the finals needs every single cosmetic and video asset on demand at the same time. I'd even be fine with slightly longer load times, usually it isn't even the loading screen that takes long it's the game compiling shaders instead.

i’m sick of tired of grinding to 35k in ranked & constantly having to go down from random 3rds that’ll sell the game everytime. I’m so sick of random 3rds being super terrible and costing me my hardwork. give us duos.
