The Finals Release Today | The Game Awards 2023

I hope this has some other game modes that were not in the demo and that it was just a small slice of what it was offering. If there is more to the game on todays full release then I would give this another try, otherwise it will get stale for me too fast.

PC, XBone, & Playstation is live now.
 
Somehow I missed this announcement earlier. I'm going to go download now. I can finally stop drifting along in a daze because that's what ive been doing gaming wise since the beta ended lol.

Server issues were ironed out very quickly, especially considering there are 120k people playing on Steam alone.
 
So it looks like the same 2 game modes to play and 1 new map (Las Vegas)? Also, people are reporting the movement is much slower than the Beta. Can anyone confirm that's been playing it?

Movement appears to be an FOV issue. 1 New map (Vegas), with 2 new map modifiers - sand storm and alien invasion.

Thanks for the info. Those map modifiers sound interesting, may watch a few more streams to see if this is something I want to jump back in.

Also, this game is so team focused with good comms needed if you want to excel that it may turn off the solo/casual players. I guess its called "the Finals" for a reason.

It really is. Just making sure you're all heading to the same objective so you don't end up by yourself getting crushed between two or three teams of 3.
 
Are the movement changes THAT bad or noticeable? It looks like a lot of the Steam players aren't happy about it.

Nothing is changed with the movement speed. Steam players are retarded. They changed the default FOV to be smaller and the movement feels slower as a result, but you can change your FOV

I was genuinely curious as I didn't get across to trying the betas out, and it's being mentioned a LOT in the reviews. You can't always trust those reviews, but it did look questionable. I can see that being the issue. I'll still give it a whirl at some point.
 
Downloaded it last night, but haven't played.

I had fun with the beta, but was hoping for more modes. Movement in the beta felt okay, but it would be even better if it was closer to Titanfall 2 or Apex Legends.

Probably wouldn't even play if there was no destruction.

Game is so much fun. Just try it
 
Tried it earlier and had some fun but i think learning curve will be steep.

On a side note, i was trying out the character creator and they really went full on the non binary stuff.
They don't refer to body types as male / female, they have the male and female faces mixed, same with hair styles and it doesn't make sense to me.
 
Bruh the trophy list for this game lol. It may take a year for me to get everything and I still may not get all of them. I dig the new map by the way.
 
Had a blast playing lastnight! Had no issues then atleast. The game is so much fun and its just gotten better and better since closed beta, open and now release imo!

I can confirm all of this. I'm playing on PS5 and played the Beta on PC.

The game is really, really limited. I though it was just cause it was a beta, so I gave it a pass like "Oh, when it released ofiically, it will have more" so I never really spoke about that as, its a beta....buuuuuut that Official release is literally just as limited.

Movement is a bit slower.

I had a lot of animation issues, where after you taunt, your gun is stuck on screen in front of you blocking your view, but i had that issue on PC during the beta too.

Yup.

Recently played it again on PC after playing it on PS5 to see if the changes were based on platform and it seems the movement is on all systems. I thought it was slow in the beta, to be even slower is like.....ok lol

Can't connect, on PS5

I had the same issue and was able to get into the game after a while.

The TTK is complete shit. Its really sluggish and spongy

Oh and the devs confirmed they didn't touch the movement. So it's not slower.

If they did and are getting a negative reaction, I'm doubtful that they'd admit it.

Feels slower to me on both platforms.

Yeah, but they wouldn't lie about it either. If they didn't want to address it, they would have avoided the question.

Feels exactly the same to me, but I instantly put my FoV on 90 before I played the Beta and before full release.

Well if you're right, there will be YouTube videos illustrating the movement nerf in about 10...9...8...

There won't be, because you're wrong.

Also "many people say" means nothing to me.
I don't need to and won't post any videos.

People saying this can easily be found to the point the dev themselves have acknowledged and attempted to address them.

No one's asking you to post videos. We'd see them pop up naturally with a game this popular. We're not going to see these videos because everyone who tests the beta footage against full release footage will see the devs were right.

Believe in better conspiracy theories my friend.
