          You're either a shill or a underage homosexual who can't see obvious shilling across the entire board, from sutley shit to direct-on advertising.
          Sadly, its not against the rules as you can discuss games here but you need to know how to spot actual fake comments

      I didn't say the finals was good - I genuinely thought it was super popular. Is that incorrect?

      Finals is falling off. Most buzz is mid at best and kinda scuffed at worst. Basically everyone talking about it has their own idea how to fix it but all agree there is a lot to fix.

      Seems like a solid "not enough players to start a full match" in a month or two after release.

    Hyenas looked hideous, like really foul and completely unoriginal. Like the worst parts of those Watch Dogs 2 character previews chicken into a game. Nothing original or fun. But somehow The Fibals looks even more generic. It's atrocious. It's atextbook Chinese knockoff looking piece of shit

      I'll take it.

      Anyways, The Finals might have some legs if they can iron out the major issues. When lobbies are full of legit players (not cheaters) and everyone is willing to PTFO it's a lot of fun.

      It's also not an extraction shooter or a BR.

    With The Finals you can tell a bunch of the devs wanted to make a normal first person shooter but Mr. Marketing told them they need to add some wacky shit to make it more like Fortnite. The actual core of the game isn't nearly as ugly as the other games on this list. Not necessarily good but for regular reasons not -ack reasons.

    • 4 weeks ago

      I don't even think a game like this could be made these days without wacky shit. Maybe if you are a huge dev making a game with a $200 million budget you can do it to start, but eventually you need to put wacky shit in. See R6 Siege, COD with Nicki Minaj, etc. It's all about selling stuff in the cash shop.

      i don't care about the wacky cosmetics or the dumb ai voices i just want a traditional tdm mode
      the game ends up only being fun with friends because randoms usually play like retards and ignore the objectives, but the game is something i want to play a few rounds of when i'm bored not something i want to have to organize sessions for

        Absolutely no one wants to play TDM besides a few retarded incels mentally stuck in early 2000s.

        • 4 weeks ago
          Anonymous

          doesn't have to be pure tdm, a basic payload or zone-capturing mode would be fine too, it just needs a mode that's simple enough to be fun to play with retards. solo queueing in this game is miserable because 75% of the people you match with either
          >ignore the objective and fuck off halfway across the map, presumably in an attempt to take some epic parkour route, and get into a fight with a team who aren't even cashing out
          >tunnelvision the objective so hard that they rush in alone, start trying to steal the cashout while the entire enemy team is there, and get instaraped
          this is a FOTM game and FOTM games can only survive if they're fun to play solo

            How is "bank it" not simple enough? You just hunt players with most coins or open coin vaults and deposit it whenever you can. It's not more complicated than CTF.

            • 4 weeks ago
              Anonymous

              yeah bank it is a lot simpler which is why i mainly stick to it now but there's still a lot of people who seemingly don't realize they have to bank coins and just run around aimlessly with 10k in their pockets
              the more i think about it i think the bigger problem with solo play is actually the small team sizes. - getting matched with 4 retards in a team of 12 is manageable but getting matched with 1 retard in a team of 3 is crippling. it also makes disconnects really fucking annoying, especially with the fucked-up matchmaking that starts games when they're 1v2v3s

      honestly the finals isn't THAT bad. it's mediocre enough to grab my attention but the forced 3v3 teams and having to rely on retarded group members is something I'd rather not have.

    Its called mirco transaction-bait

    Games made soley in order to gain a Fortnite like audience without actually understanding anything that made those games successful.

    Naturally they have skins and a functioning cash store working at launch even with 0 players

    Its the gaming equivalent of throwing shit at a wall and hoping gamers flock en mass to it for it and potentially make it a second job for them
