Many thanks to my mate, Duhmeister, for providing the gameplay footage for Tip 46, and for pointing out to me just now that I spelled "Chaos" wrong in Tip 79 - don't write captions after midnight, folks! Hahaha... thanks, Duh, that's what friends are for! Also, another correction! The scanning angle of the Guardian Turret (Tip 49) is actually 150°, not 90° - I have now measured it using images of it taken from above (thanks to @Bhristopherblud for questioning my 90° info in a comment). And... mines all now have a 1.6 second delay on them now following the latest patch (Tip 46), so Duhmeister's not going to be throwing mines at someone's face again. :(
Hey, thanks for another great video! Best finals content. Just wanted to share a tip I learned from experimenting with the goo gun. The tower method starts collapsing after the number of goos attached to a single point exceeds 15. So vertical towers reach 15 then break on the 16th goo. This doesn't really affect towering but is useful to know for building large walls as you need to make sure that there is multiple attachments to the ground as goo fired at other goo connects to what it hits first, even if it looks like its connecting to the ground too. So keeping track of which chain of goo you're adding to can let gou build massive structures without collapses. Thanks again for the great video :)
This is actually one of the best tips and tricks videos I've seen. One extra tip however is you can shoot Ziplines to break them. I don't think he mentioned that one or maybe he did and I'm dumb.
Played about 3 games and got bored. Way too much unnecessary hype over this - it barely hits 60 fps on PS5 and the gunplay feels like a 2012 shooter. I’ll stick to MW3
I’m absolutely LOVING The Finals. The physics are great, map destruction is some of the best I’ve seen, and the gunplay is a bit different but it grows on you fast once you find your preferred load out. This video just showed me so many new ways to experiment and I hope this game continues to get better. Now just to find a team to play the ranked matches with and go to the finals baby!
Great list and it boggles my mind how mindful the developers were to implement all those interactions. I started less than a week ago and I learned a lot in your video. Thanks!
During the beta I messed up the enemy team that way on Seoul Under Construction as a sniper. I was camping the centre crane for its good vantage and I could reposition it to better cover my team. I noticed a squad moving to intercept my team via a raised bridge. As soon as they pressed the button I shot it to reraise it and reduce the pressure my teammates had to deal with. This repeated until they figured out where I was and tried to return fire probably thinking I was trying to kill them. I was satisfied having effectively removed an entire team from the fight and all I had to do was keep the bridge raised and keep their attention long enough that they wouldn't think about using a nearby jump pad.
Thanks! I didn't spot that, because it still created timestamps with one 0. And thanks for stopping by - I've really enjoyed your movement videos, which is why I didn't go too in-depth with movement in this video haha!
The Finals 👍 edit: If you deploy a zipline while on a throwable object, the zipline will be attached to the object, do with that what you will :) edit edit: You can, in fact, grab the object while on the zipline if you're fast enough :) Edit edit edit: Patched :(
Another random tip but if one of your teammates decides to kill themself if they are a heavy or a medium and you have a light on the team the light can pick the dead player up and take them with them since the lights can Traverse the map a lot quicker than mediums and especially heavies. if you were to have two lights and a heavy then the heavy could kill himself then one of the lights could pick him up and take him with them once they get to where they need to go and then revive him so they all get there at the same time instead of the heavy being a mile behind the rest of the team
C'mon man, you can't release something as busted as the exit sign trick. If you do that then anyone that goes in will be stuck in there for the entire match. Have some humility
i expected this to be a "yaya, i knew it all"- experience but damn, there were some helpful tips in this vid. great vid (and i guess i will destroy all exit signs from now on)
Im surprised you didn't include this tip about the smoke/powder. It can put out fires and its very good for stealth since it basically turns off the glowing outline of your character when your standing in it. I run the smoke grenade on my light class sometimes. Good to hide in it for a revive or to put out fire that is covering the cashout.
Yeah, I discovered that one by accident. If there’s a mine attached inside the tower part way up, which I’ve seen players do a bit, you will still set it off though (although survivable).
The things you can do with your surroundings, the different ways you can use things to your advantage but also punish you if not done properly is going to cause a lot of rage to this game but its such a good feature as an esport game. It’ll also allow for so many cool clutch plays
I found that 84 spot in a ranked game today before watching this and it's awesome. Had a turret watching the box on the ground while I was up there and wiped three teams as the last man on my team.
Great vid. I didn't know about 40% of these. One thing though: as of 12/20/2023, mines now have a 1.6 second arming time, so dropping mines right on people no longer works (Tip: 46).
This is really great video. Anyone else have trouble throwing and grabbing a red canister back “in game”? I can do it in the practice arena but it’s rare that it works when I’m in a tournament or a quick match. Lemme know! Thanks
Ok, so, firstly, thanks for the comment - it made me go and check it by capturing images of it from above and then overlaying them in Photoshop and then use the protractor tool. Because three lasers are coming out of the turret, and the left and right ones are at an angle, the actual scanning angle is 150°! I'm about to make a video on the turret anyways, so I'll mention it in that.
Unfortunately around 60-70% of Top 500 globally ranked players are part of a Discord (a member leaked, evidence is abundant) that promotes a script that allows keyboard players to have the aim assist of a controller player. Once locked onto a target it also automatically micro-adjusts your crosshair to the enemies head to guarantee an easy KO. "But wait!" you say, ."What about the recoil?" Ah yes, luckily it allows you to basically eliminate the recoil on any weapon. Might as well have a magic gun. They should probably just add a script that allows the gun to fire itself. That way we can get some practice when AI becomes advanced enough to pub stomp the best human players. It makes carrying around a cannister a bit less viable. In a real fight you might get a KO. Against an aim bot you're just dying without your weapon equipped. But in general I think most players should always be carry a cannister around. If you need to drop it you can or just throw it wherever. But 3 players placing cannisters means you could probably get 3-6 cannisters in a short amount of time since there will be cannisters near as well. God... a team that really coordinated traps would be insane to play against. I really hope they get rid of the hacking. This game has some really fun potential for eSports. The players need to get a lot better though first. The game needs updates. But imagine facing teams that can lay 3-6 cannisters, 2-8 mines, and a Goo maze in the matter of 5-20 seconds while taking a point. Any extra time (before an enemy arrives) would just be positioning, scouting, and/or adding to your Goo Maze.
Such a good video, brother! Love your editing style and your witty commentary. I also can't stop myself from applauding your humongous patience level in collecting the facts for some of the tips! Keep this up! 💖
Tip 87: if you’re playing as a medium or heavy and standing in a window you can vault to a window above you to traverse floors rather than using stairs. Tip 88: you can take a map explosive object, melee, let it go and catch it, then hold it below you so it goes through the floor. Depending on the depth it won’t do any damage or do minimal damage as it explodes. Tip 89: if you shoot the bottom of a active goo it will break the top above that goo aswell (gooood if you wanna save bullets in a upcoming fight) Tip 90: if you’re playing heavy build with mesh shield and someone is pushing you head on and your stalling for more time… as they’re pushing you and you wanting to gain some distance between you and them, Bring down your mesh shield as you slide through them, do a 180° turn and bring your mesh shield up again. You can do this multiple times if needed (practice in practice range and in game, the faster you’ll be able to do it the more efficient it be.) Tip 91: Dome shield on heavy class can be used and an extended extra shield. If you ever find yourself far away from your team and see them engage in a fight, you can throw your dome shield from a far to give them more cover. Suggest throwing it in front of the enemy or close to your team depending on the situation and cover your team or enemy team has. Tip 92: if there is gas or pyro at a cash out but you need to steal. You can have your heavy or medium steal as your healer (medium) heals whoever is stealing to mitigate the damage from fire or gas. Healing beam will zero out gas and fire will do slightly more damage (why I suggest heavy go for steal over medium.) Tip 93: Communicate with your team what you’re about to do and also what gadgets you’re about to use so you and your teammates are on the same page and can play more efficient without surprises. Tip 94: Drink water, take breaks i between games/tournaments to stay calm and focused. Don’t forget to eat and stretch. Always bring a positive attitude to a game rather than a negative.
I don't record my own mic audio for any of the Practice Range footage, so if it was during those parts, what you might be hearing is the mannequins shooting at one another in the background. I'll make sure the wall is up between them for any future Practice Range recording. The in-game footage often has it turned down as well, plus it's a dynamic mic, so it's unlikely to be keyboard noise anyhow. I'll keep an ear out for it for any in-game recording though.
@@RockhoundBlack thanks, i googled that much after i wrote that and furthermore it turned out i am just silly. i even got at least a red cap that sais "the finals beta participant" (or smth like that) i just didnt see it when i wrote that :D

You can always count on me to point out your mistakes hahaha
very good vid thx and definitely want to see more so i subscribe 😇👍

The troll tips like the goo on the fixed jump pad and the decoy zip line are gonna make people rage quit lol

Goo 😋

Great info, thanks! I hope we get private servers soon so we can build some crazy structures!
The last tip (86) made my day. thank you
“Made my day” hahaha. Very good.
This is actually one of the best tips and tricks videos I've seen. One extra tip however is you can shoot Ziplines to break them. I don't think he mentioned that one or maybe he did and I'm dumb.
Thanks! The shooting (and meleeing) ziplines was Tip 32 at 10:13. :)
idk if u know about this but if u shoot the buttons on the bridge stuff and the platforms it also activates it
This is a great video, thank you for sharing this with us❤
Thanks!
Another tip i just learned u can put two cubes in one cashout in tourneys!
Am I the only one that just realized they're called powder canisters
love it
Thanks, let me just spend 2 minutes building a goo wall to climb up a building while my team fights and dies...........
Played about 3 games and got bored. Way too much unnecessary hype over this - it barely hits 60 fps on PS5 and the gunplay feels like a 2012 shooter. I’ll stick to MW3

by far my favorite game out right now. The Finals is a masterpiece. Everything I’ve ever wanted from an fps. Competitive battlefield
Isn’t it great! So refreshing
It’s good until there’s a full team of heavies with sledgehammers and shields on a cash out and u get demolished
Great list and it boggles my mind how mindful the developers were to implement all those interactions. I started less than a week ago and I learned a lot in your video. Thanks!
19:27 You can also shoot buttons to activate them
Yes, I should have mentioned that. Thanks!

you need to put another 0 in for of Intro for it to create chapters. so 00:00
Thanks! I didn't spot that, because it still created timestamps with one 0. And thanks for stopping by - I've really enjoyed your movement videos, which is why I didn't go too in-depth with movement in this video haha!
i watched so many tip videos but this one has the best explanation and i understand this the best. thanks rhb!
I think I need to turn down my mic gain 😅
Oh, no, it's perfect! I mean nice. Nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice!
@@RockhoundBlack 😂
oh my lord this game has so many in game mechanics I didnt know about.
The Finals 👍
edit:
If you deploy a zipline while on a throwable object, the zipline will be attached to the object, do with that what you will :)
edit edit:
You can, in fact, grab the object while on the zipline if you're fast enough :)

Patched :(
I reckon this will get changed in the next patch. It's crazy!
new Rockhound vid 👀
Another random tip but if one of your teammates decides to kill themself if they are a heavy or a medium and you have a light on the team the light can pick the dead player up and take them with them since the lights can Traverse the map a lot quicker than mediums and especially heavies. if you were to have two lights and a heavy then the heavy could kill himself then one of the lights could pick him up and take him with them once they get to where they need to go and then revive him so they all get there at the same time instead of the heavy being a mile behind the rest of the team
That's a wacky tactics
can't wait for tip # 1064... ._.
It will be out of this world...
Might be tip #1063 depending on which calendar you subscribe to 😁
Another tip, you can just climb floors by jumping up windows
The mine throwing tip got nerfed to death pretty fast. Also you can climb almost every window from other windows below.
This is too many tips, my poor, fragile body can only hold so many tips.
BONUS TIP: Spam crouch when revivng or stealing bank so you dont get easily shot
Good video bro. Straight to the point, no fluff. Kapai
C'mon man, you can't release something as busted as the exit sign trick. If you do that then anyone that goes in will be stuck in there for the entire match. Have some humility
Best tip: have functioning teammates who stay close and don’t get picked off
When I do stay around my team mates, they're anywhere else but the cash out station, dog fucking
i expected this to be a "yaya, i knew it all"- experience but damn, there were some helpful tips in this vid. great vid (and i guess i will destroy all exit signs from now on)
Great video. I have this game downloaded but haven't played it yet. Perfect timing!
At first I hated this game because of how unrealistic it was. The interaction with the environment counters all of that.
Another tip, you can also put fire out with the smoke grenades or powder canisters
Love it mate! Just awesome going to share that around and watch it probably several times
I call goo towers "goo dongs" because I'm a child at heart having fun where I can.
ok between the 79 is golden comment and another goo in the wall u got my sub, Bravo!
12:24 I learned this when I tried to pull a TF2 heavy move and heal my teammate whilst they where getting shot
I want to eat the Goo. It looks like it would be crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside
Didn’t know fire grenade goes through the ceiling, good to know
haa, 'nice, nice, nice, nice, nice'
Im surprised you didn't include this tip about the smoke/powder. It can put out fires and its very good for stealth since it basically turns off the glowing outline of your character when your standing in it. I run the smoke grenade on my light class sometimes. Good to hide in it for a revive or to put out fire that is covering the cashout.
I should have!
haha thought i was the only one who knew latin in the gaming community
Some of these tips are super cool and unique, reminds me of r6 tips
Omg they’re powder?! That makes so much sense cuz I was thinking how does smoke remove a fire? 😂 thx
Does the heavy have 2 C4s but the Light class only 1? i dont remember having 2 c4s in my inventory as a light build.
Yeah, the Heavy has 2 C4s and the Light has a single Breaching Charge, which does equivalent damage to the C4.
Great work on this video. I am about to try this game and this is exactly the kind of information I needed.
Thx. Funny and informative. Have nice days.
dude hit me with the clint eastwood, GG's good sir
14:40 This exact zip line spot has gotten me before, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that was me there!
If so, I thank you for being an essential part of the video. 😂
Another awesome video dude! Love it! 🐰
Damnit dawg . .ur videos have helped me tremendously. Subbed . Keep doing ya shit playboi
Thanks! Great they’re helping.
Tip 75, finally, FINALLY I CAN CIRCUMVENT THE CRANE
Yeah, I discovered that one by accident. If there’s a mine attached inside the tower part way up, which I’ve seen players do a bit, you will still set it off though (although survivable).
Thanks for the tups.
You're wulcome! 😂

@@BeeAVillain I will try that! Thanks
Nah works consistently for me
Pretty sure the turret is a 120° angle
Ok, so, firstly, thanks for the comment - it made me go and check it by capturing images of it from above and then overlaying them in Photoshop and then use the protractor tool. Because three lasers are coming out of the turret, and the left and right ones are at an angle, the actual scanning angle is 150°!

I think ICBM stands for Inter Continental Balistic Missle lol
Yeah, these are for very small continents. Haha. 😜
I just hate that the call it icbm lol. It's not intercontinental
I've heard others calling it a "nuke" - I guess it just begs to have nickname.
2:07 that’s called key holing. When a projectile that’s supposed to go forward since like that

tip 65 is game changer
Hahaha!
I'll say this.... this game is awesome fun BUT it's filled with nothing but try hards and unless you are talking to your teammates you will lose
Me (powered by ADHD) feeling good about the extra information obtained going into the game... forgetting half of it immediately.
The R.O.C.K. Itself hands down made this the best tips video in the finals, finna go use this every game now 😂
great video man just wanted to let you know tip 46 no longer works due to the 1.6 or 1.9 sec arming time
Yeah, I put the 1.6 second arming time into the pinned comment when they made that change. Thanks for the comment. 👍

79 is goated asf lmao
Fellow kiwi here, keep up the good work! Kia kaha!
Kia kaha!
Excellent, just Excellent!
TIP #74 you could also trigger the button by shooting or pressing V (default key) on the button
Yeah, I actually forgot to mention that.
I hate getting killed when i need just 0.5 sec to steal the cashout, because my random team doesnt do shit ;^;
Throwing while jumping also goes farther, and sprinting *and* jumping even farther!
i think i knew all 85
You can pick up items while invis if you press pick up then invis in rapid succession
Your keys are so loud, turn on noise suppression
