I’m a medium main but I could never find any heavies to play with. Started trying to get good at it myself and I can’t even explain how much fun winch/sledge has been. I hope this change doesn’t affect the gameplay I’ve come to love

[@THiiXY]

I don't think it will effect that much, just only very specfic situations when two or more players are grouped etc, but I agree Winch/Sledge is such a fun combo ahaha

[@GloGangPromoterr]

@@THiiXY Try Winch + Flamethrower I was getting cooked by that combo earlier 😭

[@shortRAGE]

what did they do to my hammer🥲 I loved it when i smashed a whole team with one swing 😂

[@Blackavelli202]

​@@GloGangPromoterr Yeah that's the one right there. I usually main medium. But I started messing around with heavy and I run Winch and flamethrower and been going crazy with that combo.

[@ScooterScudieri]

Heavy!!!! ❤ good gun and flame thrower!!!!!

[@StinkyMick99]

Anyone else getting black screened in between TA ranked rounds?? Lost about 2900points because of it😭😭😭

[@THiiXY]

Wait really? tff... I haven't tested it out yet because I've been busy but 2.9k loss is crazy.....

[@ickabug957]

Full Exit out of finals; Log back in; reconnect to game

[@Expressmusic457]

No, but I don't play much ranked and I'm on console

[@InsomniacUN]

I've gotten something similar when switching sides. I could hear that the game was starting but I was still in the black screen that shows up while you wait. I had to close out the game and boot it up again to reconnect. Wasn't able to play that round but at least I got back in.

[@superslidesupreme]

@Tbo69 yeah it's when it's loading the other half. Happened twice idk why but it's so annoying especially how long the matches are

[@bobertbolero]

I'm surprised the hammer right click isn't an aoe, cause I agree you should be able to multi hit with it but maybe it would be more balanced to spread the damage across multiple enemies

[@THiiXY]

100% I do like that single hit it's very strong, but I feel right-clicking it (as it deals more environment damage) should also be at least to some degree an AOE attack in some way, of course I don't want to OP the weapon for casual modes but still.

[@itzreinz007]

No it should not aoe it’s already broken as it is

[@MCBigFetus]

@@itzreinz007 wouldn’t say broken, very strong in the right hands, but highly dependent on your positioning skills and enemy team composition.

Great video! Thanks for your clean and organized patchnotes videos. Been really helpful to keep up with everything

[@THiiXY]

Ayyy well thank you very much for the kind words! :D

[@ryans3795]

Grapple has been my literal favorite this season. Great range and velocity, nearly always a get out of trouble free ability.

[@chadharpicenjoyer8591]

Bug - There is a bug going on where screen freezes during loading of next rounds u can chat hear sounds but game doesnt load properly u have to click exit from steam then restart i have lost so many games because of it and it happens every game especially in world tour and ta rank And the kyoto map is beefy fs near bamboo area frame drops like crazy and a pretty big map so u spawn 100 m away nd im playing with level 12 -20 players im happy with new players but the lobby is lvl 55 lights /heavies and their server are sometimes laggy

[@fortesque9506]

melee weapons have low DPS and a longer TTk than other weapons even up close which shouldn't be the case (if I totally sacrifice the possibility of hitting from a distance I would like to be strong at least up close) so I think that melee weapons should always be capable of hitting multiple people at the same time (when was the last time you saw 3 people within one meter perfectly still in front of you) the skins are very nice but I don't intend to buy them until they fix the servers (same lag problem as the closed/open beta and season 1) the people who play with me on the EU servers have the same problems most of the time with the exception for those who have a pretty strong connection (they see a little temporary lag but don't get stuck in place) anyway, thanks for always being on top of things in record time, I see your videos before I even notice that an update has arrived

[@THiiXY]

Ayy I appreciate you, and I like your thinking with that too, which is why I was saying more so with the sledgehammer because it punishes people being that close together in the first place with a right click attack, maybe it could extend to the blades as well… I haven’t had many issues with the server, it’s only with Kyoto at the moment sometimes when destruction gets bad, not sure what they’ve changed it it’s the case overall, maybe another provider or something with a cheaper solution? Not sure… Either way thanks for watching :)

[@Bagginsess]

There's a reason Bungie gave the gravity hammer an AoE and the energy sword a generous lung. Or like Blizzard let Reinhard swing immediately out of the shield, swing faster, and made the hammer much bigger allowing you to sweep through multiple enemies. I think Embark needs to make the hammer bigger/longer and have a faster swing, and possibly give it some AoE either like the gravity hammer or before where you could hit multiple enemies with drags.

[@fortesque9506]

@@Bagginsess you made me think of something, you could greatly increase the initial animation speed of the hammer and also other melee weapons, at the moment between when you press the button and when the attack animation actually starts/arrives it takes a long time especially with the 'light attack of the hammer (in this way you can increase the responsiveness of the weapons without increasing the attack speed)

[@Bagginsess]

@@fortesque9506 for the hammer that would be a God send.

Theres this problem where my game is having some god awful stutters that made me stop playing for a few days and it still persists after this patch, i hope Embark does something about it :(

[@THiiXY]

Ahhh really? Sorry to hear :( When did it start happening was it after a patch originally? The support on the Embark website is actually really helpful with this stuff, you could try there?

[@QuackQuackBang]

I have the same! But I’m going to try the standard GPU driver update haha

[@wind4396]

​​@@THiiXY I think it might have just began with the first patch of season 3, i've tried the following: - Uninstalling the game - Verifying the game files - Downgrading my graphics card driver - Turned off the automatic tuning option from nvidia experience Heck, i even reinstalled my windows but i had another reason for that originally but, all i can say is that *NOTHING* worked which means it's really just the game having performance issues. It obviously wasn't my laptop's fault because it was and still is capable of running the game just fine before the stutters happened :[

[@usamabinmuzaffar692]

Those skins look clean! But a tad bit over priced don't you think? (says me who's probably gonna end up buying the FCAR and AKM skins anyway lol)

[@THiiXY]

Yeah I like that we can buy them separately though which helps a lot, the M60 and AK is my favourite

[@MR.GLDN33]

im so glad about the kyoto change because my pc is lower end and usually struggles with that map which is a shame because its my favourite map

[@THiiXY]

Yeah it's so beautiful but there comes a point where you need to think about the entire playerbase with specs etc aha

[@_ed21]

Wow melee nerfs 😂 who asked for that 😂 melee even worse now 😢

[@THiiXY]

I mean for the dagger I kind of understood it, but for the sledge I think that being able to multi-hit with the right click isn’t so bad, it’s a rare scenario anyways but then again the output in damage it deals is probably a lot.

[@S.Marquis]

Yeah melee is still very viable, especially now light sword will stand out and have personality for the multi hit, which I personally think it’s on top

[@_ed21]

@@THiiXY yea sledge should definitely still have it. Maybe not dagger but riot and duel swords can 🤣

[@Citrous241]

People would rather nerf what's annoying than what's strong 😒

ive encountered a bug that didnt allow me to use my primary . happened about 2-3 times this week

[@Durzza]

Heavy main

[@Bay-Lee08]

​@@Durzza As a Medium who loves The Model shotgun and demat I feel like both heavy and light are a mess. Idk how to explain it but I feel like everythings just back and forth heavy gets buffed light sucks. Light gets buffed heavys sucks. And Mediums just there I guess. Im just a casual player so i dont really know much and i respect your opinion a ton. Even if theres nerfs and buffs tho im still having the most fun ive had in a while😊

[@Bay-Lee08]

I also like Pineapples

[@Durzza]

@@Bay-Lee08 I agree with that

[@Durzza]

@Bay-Lee08 I actually really agree with that. Mediums are always good it seems Even when they're strong it doesn't feel like BS. Unlike the nuke meta or the current light meta. And honestly, I have no solution other than remove invisibility and replace it with something else

[@Durzza]

And even then, I'm not sure I can counter that mere with a heavy nerf of = effect. Because both suffer from being a smidgen away from being bad or op

[@scuttlecrabb]

The bird flu? Yeah they tend to do that

[@WhatwouldScottydo-yx4qz]

the solo bank it issue might have been the spawns being bugged on las vegas - duststorm variant (players spawn under map)

[@THiiXY]

Ohhh wait really? ahaha I had no idea about that one

[@mr.vegeta1212]

Yea let’s just ignore the fact that lights are OP and there’s no tactical plans going on anymore in game just run and gun

[@lupinjager]

I'd like to see more flame thrower skins and animations. It be cool if they added skins for the mesh shield and other specializations.

[@THiiXY]

100% I said with the neon flamethrower it would have been cool for the flame to be multicoloured for example, but the bullets in that collection actually shoot different colours too :D

[@lupinjager]

@@THiiXY that's exactly why I got the neon skin for the flames... was disappointed 😞

[@malagooo6456]

[@chrisd3925]

They need to fix fcar scope seeing through smoke and debris. Might happen with xp54 i havent played the weapon alot

[@THiiXY]

Wait that's a thing wtfff, I'll check it out

[@noosa187]

Really thought they'd start experimenting with improvements to cashout but looks like they're not doing that at all.

[@THiiXY]

Do you mean in World Tour? I think they said that they're doing the changes in the background interally testing them rather than making adjustments on the fly etc

[@TWEEMASTER2000]

kyoto sucks to run through, it's literally too big of a map or there isn't enough bounce pads or zip lines to get around, you spawn 100-200m away from the cashbox instead of like 50-100m

[@THiiXY]

Yeah I actually think there isn't enough directional bouncepads etc, because there are some but they don't allow you to really go in the direction you want in some cases

[@TWEEMASTER2000]

WHY IS FUCKING CLOAKING EVEN IN THE GAME STILL??

The harsher penalty for people that leave ranked is nice, but it would be nice if we could get some sort of elo amnesty for the people that suffer through a 30 minute game of getting beaten down in a sweaty 4v5 ._.

[@THiiXY]

Yeah, or something along those lines, maybe a breakdown of how we were rewarded that elo in the first place or something.

[@Zlittlepenguin]

@@THiiXY hey now there’s an idea lol. It does feel a bit arbitrary, huh?

[@Sazujin_]

I still don't understand the whole world tour thing. It's literally unranked tournaments like we had in S1, but with a limited map pool. The so called "rank" is the biggest joke ever, since it's more of a character level since it's tied to how many games you grind. World Tour so far has been the biggest let down, I was hoping they are gonna shake something up with the new tour. Gonna wait for S4 at this point... Bummer

[@THiiXY]

I hope the first part was an introduction and they then introduce some cool stuff with the Ospuze one... let's see what happens

[@sandrobokuchava9746]

those shadows look so bad! :((( hope they will fix it soon! before game starts character shadow looks good but while in game it looks so bad, i don't know why.

[@Ganau-e8c]

cashout is not ranked.

Sorry to hear :( being paired with two lights as a heavy main - is that in World Tour? I think a better social system to find/add players would be cool too

[@ixkaozxi9736]

TA isn't terrible, but when I'm getting 20 kills and my teammates are going 1 and 10 and we lose on round 13 and I still lose points then it makes me not want to play ranked

[@THiiXY]

Yeah it's pretty frustrating, that's some of the things I've been saying for a while, how the actual tech is behind the gamemode is really off-putting for some, hope it gets altered soon

[@ixkaozxi9736]

@@THiiXY I think a better idea is to change the maps slightly or the spawns. Having to run into the open with little cover is rough. As a medium if I get shot once I can’t regenerate my health so even if I hide if they see me again I get 1 shot basically. With a heavy you can survive 3 shots but then you’re more likely to be shot becasue you’re much slower. Right now the only counter play seems to be just playing light and be better than the sniper but even that is difficult if there’s multiple snipers in a lobby

[@Jett_Wave]

​@@THiiXYI'm not who you responded to, but I'd like it if they would give them a charge forward after blocking. If they like "charged" when you were blocking, maybe heating them up, once they are charged, you attack and dash forward. I know riot shield mains that absolutely slay with them, but I feel like medium isn't fast enough to close the gap while blocking, like light can do with dash or heavy attack on sword, and medium doesn't have enough health or a winch like heavy has to close the gap, so it feels bad to use without seriously good positioning. Either way, it's kind of a gimmick weapon, so if they buffed it too much, it would feel bad to play against.
