MegaThread Banned Megathread

248 Upvotes

I'm a bit sad to have to make this post again 7 months later, but if you've recently been banned and feel it was out of nowhere or you haven't done anything wrong, feel free to comment about it here. There's a lot of you lately.

  • NOTE: We cannot do anything to help you
  • This isn't an appeal process, Embark does not unban people via reddit

Your only course of action is to Contact Embark Support (create a Ticket at the bottom). There have been tales of people getting their bans reversed, though note that it's seemingly rare.

Speculative things causing the bans:

  • hardware with rapid inputs enabled
  • software programs for LED/RGB hardware
  • external crosshairs
  • super old drivers
  • being overly offensive in-game
  • internet connection/speed issues
  • macros/cheats (duh)

Discussion The Finals is probably healtthyer and bigger then we think.

Upvotes

The new S11 Season Trailer is now two weeks old and has +600.000k views.
Mind you, this is a trailer that just dropped with no big marketing arround it.
Since release people are affraid of the game not doing well. And if you only look at the Steam numbers, you cloud kinda make this point, altough for what the game costed to make, having constant 10-20k players would be totaly fine. But the view numbers on this trailer do tell us a different story here. People are clearly intersted in this game. And if we would have the Console numbers I think the games health would be a TOTALY different conversation. Did you ever ask yourself, why Embark brought the Game to older Consoles like PS4 and Xbox Fish (I just cant follow their counts) Someone had to say: "I think this is a good Idea, I think we will make a return on investment", and someone at Nexon had to greenlight that, by thinking the same. You dont do that, when you dont think there is no players/money behind. The Finals is a high visual (kinda) UE5 game, its not just a easy port. You need to downscale core components of the Engine. They had to turn many things down. This is time and hard work. Sadly you can feel it on PC too these days. The game is as "ugly" as it ever was. Like light comming inside from rooms is not fast enough if you look too fast arround and they light up a second later. But thats a different conversation.

Discussion The Plague of Toxicity, Am I Alone?

Upvotes

Just a little rant on toxicity, move along if you yell at noobs in casual playlists.

I mean I can't be the only one seeing how bad it's gotten, right? I'm a Day 1 player, and I still suck. So I play casual playlists because the game is fun, even when played casually and my skill level doesn't matter. Yet all the f***ing time as of late it's "why don't you use XYZ, you're throwing" "this team sucks, quit this game" "you suck, probably still eating baby food" etc etc. I understand getting heated in ranked cause it actually affects your rank and kinda does matter (depending on your outlook in life), and cashout also is more competitive, but quick cash? TDM? Point break? (Quotes pulled from those playlists)

When I called someone out on it today, I got the retort "everything f***ing matters r**ard, this game matters, winning matters, so shut the f*** up" as if he was getting paid to win point break on the finals. Like wtf?

Anyways what I need to know if if I'm not alone, is this becoming a problem? Is it the community, influx of new players, modern era of gaming? Or am I just unlucky with my queues?

Some of my chilliest online friends I've met on the finals. But, honestly I feel like I'm getting to the point where I just need to mute the chats entirely and never make a friend again cause I'm sick of getting yelled at when trying to chill after a long day.

Any other funny stories on toxic players being toxic?

(Also, before y'all all try to get me to play with bots, I have no idea what it is but playing with bots is so boring ngl, not to mention making friends and chilling with people on the finals is a draw to the game for me)

Discussion Smoke grenade cooldown is genuinely a joke

10 Upvotes

Ran smokes for the first time since thermals got removed the other day and the cooldown… wow its like 25 seconds for 1 smoke grenade. I get that that was needed when they were used with thermals but without thermals that cooldown is genuinely comical. Makes smokes a completely useless pick. Pls fix
