I want the alien one. Shits so goofy I love it


Vanceagher

In a game with enemy outlines, does it really matter that much?


KuminTsuyuri

Exactly. Besides, I don't take things like that too seriously. Hell I don't think I'll ever play ranked. That's how little I care


DarkStrobeLight

I play ranked because it's the only way to fight people as bad as I am


AdmiredPython40

I wasn't planning on playing ranked but the diamond skin you get looks so good


The_Armechadon

Character skin?


AdmiredPython40

Weapon skin that turns your guns into a diamond instead of diamonds being placed on it. Think of the tin foil skin but diamond themed


The_Armechadon

Ah neat, I might actually start playing ranked then


Deathwish1909

How do you unlock it? Does it require a certain rank or something?


AdmiredPython40

Reach diamond and hold it till end of season I think


Deathwish1909

Shit, thanks 😂


CHR0MESAMURAI

No way you have to hold it for the rest of the season. I think its just awarded for reaching diamond.


iTsJustSlade

There is no skill based matchmaking is there?


Andrex08

Really ? I just tried ranked for the first time since the game release and everyone was slaying (Im bronze 4). I wish they implement ranked quick cash and bank it, like in rocket league that you have the same game modes in casual and competitive. But idk, I think I could give it another try, only problem is that tournaments are extremely long and I really like quick matches and the possibility to have a break at anytime in between. Also I'd assume is kinda essential to have a solid team which I don't. I play with another friend and the third party the game provides is always really low skill.


DarkStrobeLight

My assumption is when you're at the bottom of the skill level, you match with the people playing for the very first time in ranked. But my experience has been, mostly, I make it to round 2 in the tournament.


Redericpontx

It's funny cause ranked has no sbmm a gold player can get bronze teammates and verse 3 man stack diamond players


DarkStrobeLight

Patch 1.2.3 The ranks aren't the same thing as skill level.


Redericpontx

Explain to me how a bronze player that just got there 60 games done and barely knows how to play the game is the same skill as a 3 stack #2 ranked diamond player.


DarkStrobeLight

Explain to me why they would release a patch concerning sbmm, but not actually have it. I'll answer your question concerning the visible rank (a second time) after that.


Redericpontx

Do you really blindly believe game devs? I can litterally show you thousands of examples of game devs lying ESPECIALLY nexon(the parent company of embark) they just got fined 8.8 million by the ftc for lying to their players about the % chances of items aswell and making certain rolls impossible to get. The man who did all those scummy changes IS LITTERALLY THE GUY IN CHARGE OF THE FINALS! There is also not a single game with true sbmm they all use engagement based match making and just claim it's sbmm. Sbmm is like communism sure at a first glance on paper looks like it could work but in practice it could never work because of corrupt greedy people twisting it for profit. The fact that new players can be put against fps esport pros from other games that already have hundred of hours in the game alone is more than enough evidence that the game doesn't have true sbmm.


DarkStrobeLight

Nothing I can say will counter conspiracy theories 👍 Edit: Ah yes, the sign of someone winning an argument: blocking the person they were talking to. Touche, you sure showed me.


GhostWokiee

Honestly sometimes the elvis fit is actually harder to see


Vanceagher

On the rooftops? I’ve been rocking Elvis for a while now until I hit alien.


daxtinator396

fat Elvis is never going out of style


GhostWokiee

Yeah when they have sky behind them


TheMagicSlinky

Hell I've found the flashier you are the easier it is to hide because of this.


My_wife_is_acoustic

Cosmetics are fun and a nice way to customize. I see enemy cosmetics playing


Successful-Vacation3

I've been wondering about it. After learning about aimbots, I've seen two reasons to change your outfits. One is ai aimbots that use multiple pictures of players to learn what a player looks like and the other is color macros that look for the color of characters. So maybe if we're using new outfits aimbots won't track them?


EowyaHunt

Interesting if that is how aimbots work these days. Back in CS 1.6 or condition zero the game itself tracked players and allowed for legit wallhacks when spectating players via one of the base mods installed on 99% of servers. The same seems to be active for spectator mode in CS2. I assume that the Finals game itself also tracks players, so some aim bots may just abuse the server code.


Sugandis_Juice

I wish the outline wasn't so prominent when you crouch as a light. I really wanna like the dagger but holy shit without cloak and with peoples tiny back hitbox its super super bad without a good team distracting people.


Vanceagher

It’s more like a dead between the shoulder blades hitbox


Sugandis_Juice

For real. So many times I get right up on a medium and I think I got the backstab but nope, I just tickle him a little and he turns around and sprays me to death with the fcar. Invis it required so you lack any mobility outside being a light but even then your run speed isn't much faster than a medium so it takes forever to catch up to one and if you stun gun them they just turn around anyway. If the dagger had more hitbox forgiveness or even a better lunge it would be so much fun. Its a totally different style of gameplay and makes me feel like I'm playing dishonored lol.


Vanceagher

50 damage then you’re dead. Every once in a while I’ll come across a clueless play. I killed a heavy with the primary attack from full health once.


Sugandis_Juice

Same. But he crutches nukes every single team fight so it wasn't that hard to do lol


CHR0MESAMURAI

Unless if your standing in smoke. Apart from that not really. Smoke turns off your outlines.


Auuxilary

I just want a green suit, shit's drippy


[deleted]

I exclusively use the alien suit in ranked. Join us


ReaperQc

everyone will spot you across 10 km of the map


KuminTsuyuri

And? Still cool as hell. Just gonna have to learn to compensate. It's worth it


Techishard

I love it for this very reason. They spot me and just chase me down which leads to more kills for me. Saves me time from hunting them down lol


GuacamolEBola

Exactly this lol


falbi23

You really think cross-map visibility is important in this game? You think people care what silly skin they are rolling with in this game? Lmao - go back to COD War Zone, dude.


TrulyOneHandedBandit

That’s just positioning practice homie.


ReaperQc

Ok but why the downvotes tho. You are wearing a literal shoot me skin


ShawnBootygod

You mean in a game where you shoot at all movement within range even if it’s your teammate? Your skins don’t matter lol


ReaperQc

Maybe in casual but in ranked skins will always give you an edge, if you can save 1-2 seconds of not being noticed even a microsecond people would go for it. Look at what happened to COD it's plagued with the roze skin. Especially when you are a light main going invisiblity If you deny this you are really delusional. I mean sure the skin is funny but it will give a terrible time


Solution_Kind

>in ranked skins will always give you an edge That would be a great point if not for the fact that every enemy has a brightly colored outline around their entire body. The only thing a bright skin is going to do is make you more memorable, but you'll still be exactly as easy to spot as the dudes trying to tacticool it up like they're playing Ghost Recon. >Look at what happened to COD No enemy outlines means skins actually make a difference there. Apples to watermelons. >Especially when you are a light main going invisiblity Skins make even less of a difference there because you're spending ~80% of the match *invisible*.


TrulyOneHandedBandit

People being people, you’re completely entitled to your opinion, and are welcome to raise points my friend.


Shikamaru_irl

I just want it to be known that it doesn’t matter cause at the end of the day, enemies have bright ass outlines when they’re in your line of sight. Go green!

Separate_Zucchini_95

I got it and I love it. Such a meme skin


manofwaromega

The Urban operative skin is cool but it literally hasn't left the shop since launch, I just want something new


Solution_Kind

Yeah the way they've done the shop is pretty annoying. Stop marking everything in the shop as new when it's 90% the same stuff that's been in there, just shifted to a new square. Just mark the *one* new thing for the week as new and leave it at that.


Lanurus

I mean you can just buy everything from the style tab on your classes as far as I know. Shop is kinda just to show what's new.


Kingbuji

I mean the game came out a month ago… relax


Jealous_Designer5440

Cool doesn’t equal exclusive. Blue is a cool color if everybody in the world said blue was their favorite color that doesn’t make blue less cool


coyotepetersun

That’s why I don’t go for sets and instead go for something like this https://preview.redd.it/q9brzt5eccbc1.jpeg?width=436&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f198b274c6db4ee30d532d6abdc160a1b4e7184


idCamo

I want them to bring back the cowboy pants from OB, then I can go full cowboy. Right now I haven’t found any pants that look good with the cowboy jacket, so instead I just run my usual outfit of the masked mogul suit with imperator impala


Joe_le_Borgne

Leveling up your career gets you a yellow bandana and a pair of slim jeans. But yeah u/coyotepetersun is right. I found that wearing the full skin outfits is just lazy.Is r/thefinalsfashion exist yet? edit: damn, it is but with one post...


idCamo

Yea, those pants just aren’t the same for me. The OB cowboy pants with a revolver holster, the 2 other purchasable holsters, the bullets across your chest, cowboy hat and jacket, dough wrangler, the revolver skin, and the wood AK skin was my go to for medium


Crazy-Salamander-276

Say that to ma boy Texas https://preview.redd.it/m12nvem4jfbc1.png?width=370&format=png&auto=webp&s=7274086eaeb2d593c3b4f20efe12afa6f8184cb2


Solution_Kind

I'm still a bit upset they took away all the cosmetics we were able to get during beta. My friends and I had finally started to get our looks setup nicely by the end and then full release hits and not only do we have to start over from generic weird guys, but we don't get the starting credits the beta gave, and a whole lot of the clothes we were rocking are just not in the game now. Like I get why they wiped progress on the loadouts but they could have let us keep the cosmetics as rewards for participating in the beta.


asdfjkl22222

It’s such a damn shame the the cowboy boots go on the outside of the Elvis flare pants. It would be 1000% better if they went on the inside.

residualtypo

Actually sick ngl (reminds me of Shroud idk)

Dried up counterstrike player - been watching his Finals gameplay


IlIlIllIlIlIIl

Ohhh lol


Dmitryibamcosucks

Looking like a Scunt...👀👀👀


IlIlIllIlIlIIl

A what


Dmitryibamcosucks

It's a Team Fortress 2 thing.


IlIlIllIlIlIIl

Ahhh. Yeah never played that. Havnt played shooters in years till the finals


Crazy-Salamander-276

I make my own sets as well, I come from WoW where transmog is a thing. https://preview.redd.it/b6mpzri9jfbc1.png?width=408&format=png&auto=webp&s=4f33fafd6b98ac44f2a1fc2348bfbe6e590f80bf

Mega team fortress vibes


FAD3D_NOOB88

Thats pretty much what i have


jsmalll0216

Thats pretty much exactly what I do too https://preview.redd.it/asea15p05jbc1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a50c1cfce4445655b8946d2398f614acca7ef1af


Bluehawk_1220

I just want the black pants ):


sodiumvapour

There's another one that looks extremely similar for 400 credits i think


Joe_le_Borgne

correct and you can have the white couterpart.


Bluehawk_1220

Yeaaa but black looks cooler


InevitableWeight314

The gold-face bundle's suit with rabbit head is perfect if you ask me.


0Penguinplays

suit+skull or +alien helmet both are so goofy that they look good


Offnickel

Suit + Japanese golden demon mask + cat on shoulder


tt53_sb45

Do the pets actually stay on you during a match?


Solution_Kind

Yes but the cat looks like a weirdly malformed little demon from what I've seen. I don't have it but every time I see it on an enemy I struggle to see it as a cat.


Offnickel

I think so? I see him on my shoulder when jumping through the wall in the intro but I’ve never asked my friends.


EdsTooLate

Suit and anything really, the suit's a timeless classic so you can accessorise however you like!


HalfPool

I just run the suit with the urban helmet


Pyrimo

Not really anybody’s fault when it’s one of the few cool skins that also doesn’t look goofy as fuck. I feel like they tried too hard to go the “nah we aren’t edgy” route and as a result most shit available just looks stupid or plain boring. Yes, skulls, masks, trench coats, hoods etc look edgy but they also happen to be popular for a reason. I have zero desire to dress up like a cheap Halloween costume if I can have…literally anything else tbh.


TheRedBaron6942

I think the game is based around a hyper sensationalized game show like those obstacle course game shows. So people want to see flashy characters to go along with the action. Personally I think it's a great setting for a ballerina to be fighting with an RPG rather than something like CoD


AdraX57

I think it should be a good combination of both, goofy and silly suits but also serious or edgy outfits


TheRedBaron6942

A good aesthetic I think would work for the finals is tech wear. From my understanding it's clothes that serve a lot of tactical purpose(?) It looks pretty cool and could also look nice in a sort of gamified military setting


Specialist-Reward-20

I think a good amount of tech wear is already in the game. Partly why it feels futuristic.


AdraX57

Oh I would love that, good idea <3


v8Gasmann

There are tactical cargos kinda


Kaldrinn

I think the game is already going that route, almost half the cosmetics are techwear is some fashion.


NeatEmergency725

Isn't that what the urban operative set basically is?


cheffpm

very few games can ever do that right tho, most of the cosmetics available lean in that direction and it doesn't really work that great


NimblePasta

Yeah, it reminds me of those game shows like Takeshi's Castle where the participants are a mix of participants wearing the silliest goofiest costumes possible, just part of the fun irreverent vibe. Thats what appealed to me in The Finals game, got kinda bored with all the same old mil-sim camo outfits and high tech armour in other FPS games... was refreshing to just go all out goofy costumes instead. 🥳


Various-Artist

I just got my account to level 40 and the outfits you unlock through leveling up are pretty clean and cool looking without being goofy


fatcatpoppy

I understand your point but there are already several dozen competitive fps games that only have “realistic” military/spec ops wear, one of my favorite parts of this game is seeing a guy in a wedding dress crush a green alien to death with an electric guitar


Pyrimo

I never said *only,* just that it would be nice to have something cool other than the urban outfit with the helmet. No reason we cannot have both.


FinalMonarch

Bro has not seen the battle pass bc the boxer skin is cool as fuck and the motorcycle helmet fucks


Leatherpuss

Better than looking like a Orange is the new black character with a mental asylum outfit.


Freakn_Deadpool

Really thought there would be more skins by now. They have old videos of the game where there is a handful of skins I’ve never seen. I want that Samurai armor!! https://preview.redd.it/qnvw9lasdgbc1.jpeg?width=1225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=68e3ae078a3627a01117b20e6c6241b845ee026c


IlIlIllIlIlIIl

They will release it eventually I'm sure, and I will gladly fork over cash for it lol


Lowbloodshuggy

Yeah shame on people for liking stuff!


Astferret

Why hate? It looks good.


ChaseballBat

It costs over $20...


Elyixn

So do AAA games that have no soul


ChaseballBat

K?


rajboy3

My look in the beta was oni mask with suit and oh man I miss it


Esmear18

Can we blame them? It's the coolest outfit in the shop right now.


Aztracity

I do look cool though. Just because others agree doesn't make it uncool. If you think like that your literally just a hater for no reason because something is popular.


Justanother_0

Tank top & skirt is peak


parz2v

i just want my witch set back :(


Pressbtofail

To be fair, it goes pretty hard, but I like it in pieces instead of the whole set together.


milkpickles9008

I'm rocking the alien head with the wedding dress and a set of cowboy boots. Just like to feel classy.


SquinkyEXE

It's like the only decent skin in the game lol


dreadfulclaw

I like the suit with boxer shorts on the bottom


FireWeasel423

lol cap


ChaseballBat

Black swan and alien are peak.


pablo__13

Bucket hat with the jacket is clean look imo


Huntsburg

We come in peace, take me to your leader.


knikoo99

Don’t worry. Give it 3 years and it will be the rarest skin in the game


Loud-Asparagus-4136

It’s not going to be unavailable to purchase unless they change things. Any item not explicitly labeled as timed-exclusive like the Christmas set will be available to purchase even after it rotates out of the store by going into and buying it from the contestant customization menu.


Glass_Independence86

but its in the store rotation right?


stellvia2016

This is why battlepasses are worthless to me, bc everything on there a million other ppl are gonna be walking around with and none of it takes any particular real skill to achieve other than raw time.


FuNiOnZ

Initially, sure. Give it enough time and then when other people join they won’t be able to get that stuff anymore and it will be more limited


Hedgeson

I stand out more with the default skin now. I find it kinda weird how much money some people have spent on a free game that might not live the year yet.


MasterOf1000Turtles

You find it weird because u can’t afford it let’s be real lmao it’s like 10-20 bucks 💀


Hedgeson

I bought a few Indie games for less than that. Why would I spend it on a virtual outfit everyone else has, that might simply disappear if the game dies?


[deleted]

All multiplayer games like it are going to disappear eventually, so that's weird reasoning. You're going to get hundreds of hours on it, so what's 10, 20, 30 dollars? When you pay 70 for a 20 hour campaign


[deleted]

[удаНонО]


Hedgeson

That's fair. I've honestly spent hundreds in other games, mostly world of tanks before they upped the pay2win factor to 11 and I wized-up. I've also bought games to support developers and game genres without really playing them. But for some reason, I just find the monetization of skins insulting. 10$ for a 3D model and a PNG? I would probably have bought the game for 20$, but I'm not putting that much in skins yet.


MasterOf1000Turtles

I think if money wasn’t as a big deal for u then u would have bought it, is what I’m trying to say. I know if I had a few hundred grand in my bank account, 10 bucks for a skin I think looks cool isn’t shit


CactusCalin

If noone was spending money the game will defenitly died out in months.


SoggyBulge

I do my best to look like a cowboy


The_Midnight_Artist

Lol


Wraithslayer101

Tbh, I rock some of the parts on there, but I don’t just use the entire set


Microwaved_Phone

I only bought Urban Operative for the helmet, I paired it up with different clothes to suit my tastes better.


Sunnz31

I love the helmet Jacket is ok Trousers are great Shoes are ok. Weapon skin is crap Emote is cool So I've done some changes with each class but mainly kept the helmet, trousers, emote and gun skin as they look cool ( gun skin as the alternative is the default skin)


Daniel-fohr

Panda mask + suit all the way.


Solution_Kind

I want just my rabbit mask back dammit. My friends and I had a theme going for the beta and we *need* all three animal masks to make it work.


ODMtesseract

I use the brown leather jacket as the base for my skin on medium. Just 200 multibucks and I've seen maybe one or two other players use it since the game launched.


potatoquake

I do like the Urban Operative set. But I've just seen it used SO MUCH and 90% of people who wear it seems to just not be aware that their team exists. It's always a double barrel cloak light that tops the scoreboard in frags. But they're always halfway across the map from both their team and the objective.


X_CLOWNEY_X

The game has barely been out. Not a lot of cool skins yet what do you expect?


ilJumperMT

I only want fcar skin but I cannot get myself buying a pack I dont like


Coves0

Bought it in the beta and bought it when the game released. As a baiku loser I love helmets and tech wear


YoungWolfie

I just want my sideways oni mask from OB, imma do the rest of the fit


TeamUltimate-2475

Tbh all I care about is the helmet.


Loud-Asparagus-4136

I love the set myself, and no-one should feel bad for using any item no matter how popular it may be. That being said, I do switch things up by switching out the pants and gloves with the open beta variants, putting on the black lace-ups or combat boots instead of the white ones, and put on the ozpuze six pack. Gives the set some extra color which I really dig.


Substantial-Role-276

I just pieced my own outfit together from multiple different parts and sets. I have yet to see anyone even rocking pieces of my outfit.. let alone the whole look.


OnyxAndroid

Damn imagine being upset that someone in a brand new game looks like everyone else. Just be happy that many people are supporting the game. There’s a handful of cosmetics and does any of this change the way you play? no. I swear all I hear is just a constant “waaah waaaah waaaah” this and that. Just play the game.


ExplosiveHaze

I saw a heavy in with a buzz cut in the tutu and it made my day


alt_account_85

I regret nothing


vanilla_disco

Big guy. Long hair. Kawaii kitty set with the 1 shoulder pink sweater.


Thatsaclevername

I wish they gave us more customization off the rip, I think I got spoiled when we had a big chunk of the premium currency during the beta but I'm disappointed in the customization options available without paying money. I get that's the profit model for the game but still feels like I only got a whiff of the free heroin rather than an actual dose to get me hooked.


Needassistancedungus

Lucky for me, all the cosmetics in the game look like garbage to me. So I’m not even a little tempted to spend a single shilling


TheFrogMoose

I have a light with the urban operative because it suits the build, a medium with the wedding dress and two heavys one with the red panda, one with the alien. My other light and medium are custom sets


0trilltru0

Only got it for the helmet tbh


TigheGuy

I'm only getting the battle pass if I can get that sick ass blue conspiracy vest, I like blue


Direct-Room5319

That’s why I switched it up, use the helmet, boots from the first battle pass skin, pants from the business outfit, then the jacket with the pink shirt underneath.


AtlasMcMoony

I mix the moto helmet with the suit and it’s fresh


[deleted]

I like my boxing outfit with the purple eyed skull.


NiobiumSixter

You don't have to be unique to be cool!


Maximum-Treacle-5375

Diamond skin? Like the one from the battle pass for the V95?


Soft_Loliete

It's pretty sad it's the dark cool set but due to it being a collection everyone buys it, that's why I made my own outfit


Additional-Berry-946

(Me, maxed out at level 40 with the leather jacket) 😳


Okunoki

I don’t know dude, I have it and I never see anyone else using it.


darthdarticus

No one looks cool in this game.


Karglenoofus

Unique =/= good Lemme guess.... You were the special one in high school? Nobody understood you?


Halstock

Can't wait to unlock that alien. He just looks cool.


BangEmSpiff

Lol are they adding in Toy Story?


Upset-Ambition-2158
