I want to say that I greatly respect and appreciate you saying how youre open to an explanation on the changes; I'd like to start by saying I think your confusion comes from using specific situations and how the changes conflict with those situations how you used to teach new players, rather than the system's interactions and how the changes affect those interactions in that system. I say this because I understand your view but to understand it I have to place myself in such a way, whereas personally I look at the system as mentioned. Team wipes are still team wipes-they keep an entire team out of the game and away from interacting with the objective. It also is a threat that can force coins if revive camping. Them upping the money for kills means its still worth something to go for kills. But it also means you dont lose rewards for objective for dying. You already have coins for spawning and lose time for dying as a team, more punishment is unnecessary. It also means that you cant ignore objective to wipe a team into second or third place. And if you wipe a team, thats 3 people you cant kill for at least 24 seconds. Money you cant earn. If youre going to farm for kills, team wiping isnt necessarily the way to go if it lets the opponent cashout-going for team wipe after team wipe does not put a person in last if they can play objective. Like, chasing for a team wipe in certain circumstances is no longer viable-meaning going for kills is WORSE in some situations, and no longer viable in others. And youre not just thinking "dont die" youre thinking "make sure you get cashout". You dont want to team wipe unless you can set up defense after stealing, otherwise you keep pressure on objective and push off or wipe at last second. I understand your view, but I find it ironic that the changes you view as making kill-focused gameplay more rewarding actually make it more risky; Same with defib spamming: Do I defib on obj to help hold it and risk them dying again giving more money to the enemy? Do I let them use a coin to come from an angle? Do I just try to hold until cashout and hope I dont die and we dont wipe before then? If a team of mediums is able to hold or steal objective but only through defib spamming, it means they can theoretically lose due to deposit bonuses, steals, and kill cash for the enemies. Sorry if it seemed like a lot, its just that I found the changes to be very helpful with adding proper variety and focus on objective. So it was surprising to hear you find it a change that made kills more focused. If anything, its changed the nature of kills to be centered around objective and timer more than anything.

8:06 You got this wrong. The white health regenerates as it always does. It's the yellow health that doesn't.

Nice

Sniper does 115 bodyshot not 125

I gotta say, I love the no team wipe penalty change. How many times have we all been in the lead or 2nd & the best play is to hide to avoid a wipe? Now you can go revive your m8s, you can go for that extra cashout that your team doesn't really need at the end, all without fear of getting knocked out of the qualifying spots. The fighting can go all match long every time now & I, personally, think it's gr8.

Thank you for having a own opinion, I really respect it.

I think with the no penalties it may just be a test a way to make getting third partied more bearable

1:25 pure chaos 😂

I like all the changes other than the removal of team wipe penalties. I have had the least fun playing WT this season so far with these changes.

Is the world tour over? I noticed I'm not getting badge points anymore for winning

Removing wipe penalties is the absolute worst decision made thus far. Completely washed away the identity of their primary game mode and the value of a players’ life during gameplay.

So its now often more efficient to deliberately wipe than to revive your teammates... this is a miss

Increasing the time to steal a cash out is beyond me now there is no reason to try and steal anymore

I am getting a weird bug where Vegas map removes all of my vibration in my PS5 controller. No other map does it

Genuinely I just want them to BUFF MELEE (holy it does no damage) and maybe make weapons drop like they do in cod, but you can only pick them up if they’re from your class (L=L, M=M, H=H)

Agreed - 30% Wipe penalty needs to be reinstated.

There had to be some benifit to depositing the cashbox. Sensible imo

Is it just me or is performance improved as well?

ou I played yesterday, but I somehow didnt realize those changes. new money gains are cool, but I still think the simple put the vault into cashout and then gain cash based on time it does the cash out for you... would be way better and force players to fight over cashout and not to wait for the right last minute steal... not loosing money on team wipe is certainly a very very bad decision. Because it removes the play strategy where you can team wipe someone and get into second place instead of getting the cashouts.

As a healer, the healing beam nerf sucks. Overheating occurs a lot more often now, back then I wouldn't even over heat my healing beam

light needs a god damn buff not a nerf

I'm on PS5 and I still get stuck on the tournament knockout rounds screen when waiting to enter world tournament. I can hear the crowd cheering and round starting but I'm stuck. So it's not fixed.

You can tell whether this individual likes an update based on the volume at the beginning of the video It's also funny to see people say "Change cashout. But not like that"

2:33 how did you get that Nvidia charm?

I think this patch is dedicated to get rid off campers, which are everywhere especially at higher ranks. But i have no idea how this will actually impact the game. Anyway let's give it a chance. UPD: Basically Embark's statement is: Stealing a cashout is BAD. Defending cashout is GOOD.

I think they're cooking with the changes to cashout, it feels like this rule set will be better for the gamemode

I dont think the new the Update is the right way to go. It was good to get a punish for pushing a team or trying to get a cashout, now you can just relax and dont need to worry about getting wiped because you cant loose money. The kill earning on the other hand are super important for teams that are close togheter to get an advantage. But i think it should be the best of both world. Give a punish for not playing smart and getting wiped (loose 30% money) and get money by killing people. If you do this the higher teams need to stay focused and play smart and the lower teams can still win by killing other and dont need to rely on Cashouts.

I feel like they made good changes for cash out except no wipe, Because of getting a bit of the money when putting the vault in the Cash App encourages players to actually go through the vault because I had multiple times where no one goes for the vault and we’re all just fighting for one cash out or all fighting for cash out and there’s another team just getting money out for free with no combat. I do understand where they’re going from getting rid of it but I feel like it’s going to encourage players to do more risky things with less award

Good changes. Love the new spawn locations. Cash out station in top of Kyoto tower is insane. I brought the second vault to it and all 4 teams are jumping up and down the center jump pad it was the most chaotic thing I’ve ever seen. Keep it up embark!

No wipe penalties is crazy you could just run around if you put almost all to all vaults in the cashout spot you can win without fighting even if you get wiped.

the reskin reminds me of tho supreme and offwhite stuffs in 2018 - changed the color and slap on some collab logo and we r done, lol they did the Big logo thing just like irl. But tbh I love this reskin better.

cool idea: let the players be able to spend money they have earned through the game for cosmetics/weapons/etc. thoughts?

Great changes ⭐️

I just wish they would be more transparent and tell us the rules and not have to rely on going to CZcams to figure the game out

They are making the game either to casual or to competitive i cant decide which, but i hate it. Your not catching up anymore...unless you get that jucy 3rd party baby woo! Purple and red always letting orange cap alone theyed rather share responsibility clappin our cheeks. The removal of team wipe penalties is a bad change 100% why would they even think it's a good idea to remove a good catchup mechanism. Rip self preservation.

I think erasing the whole wipe penalty is too much, maybe decrease it from 30% to 10% I guess, what I'm saying is that there's more risk to being wiped rather than just time loss..

Getting rid of team whipe penalty is 80% good. Being great at playing objective and holding it down doesn't always translate to all the fighting that happens in between. You shouldn't lose progress just because you and your team aren't the best skirmishers in the lobby. I've played games where other players have kept us at the bottom of the lobby despite us cashing out every vault just by whiping us like 2 or 3 times after the cashout. I approve.

Goo + fire = everyone dies

they need to do something about 3 teams fighting for 1 objective while 1 team is cashing out for free its annoying asf

Team wipes change? BIG L

W update w cashout changes love it so teams will have to balance between getting kills ad cashing out and i played it today the game is so much competitive now damn beautiful to see it , W W for the update😂

Good vid, man! Pretty comprehensive coverage of everything, though I hope you're getting your rest (you sound a little tired). Please remember that we all appreciate what you do for the community. I have more thoughts, but I think the best course of action (and this goes for other commenters as well) is to get on your discord and actually contribute to the communities. Keep up the solid work, and thanks for all the weekend content. It's awesome! P.S. I think Willfromwork had a good vid about the new release. He also is a bit conflicted on the changes, but since he talked about it while he played it, it didn't seem all that bad. Time will tell. This game can only get better guys, let's help, not, discourage the community and the devs. I love this game!!

Maybe if we get only Team Wipes penalty removed for the team defending a Cashout?... The money earned by kills I don't think is good because it encourages TDM mentality.

I hate to be that guy but...Embark undid all the GREAT changes to cashout they made by removing the teamwipe cash fee, that was one of the SMART mans game elements of this game that needs to be put back, everything else is great but thats too big of a deal to take away the teamwipe fee its gonna steer the game in the CoD direction

The main benefit is when you have like 30k in first during overtime, and it's better not to fight (which is just boring). Also when solo queue and your teammates dont listen to you saying to not fight and you want to put a brick in their skull.

Removing team wipes cash losts is amazing. I mean the time penalty is already ridiculous especially with limited coins you can use so now atleast its not so bad to be wiped. Wpuldve prefered if they decreased respawn times and made coins instant respawn but keep team wipes cash lost but this is not bad too

Loading bug isn't fixed but it is much more rare

I refuse to believe you have hit diamond your aim is atrocious

Personally, no penalty for team wipes is great. Means on the E sports scene players will be less cowardly in their play style and won't feel as much of a risk to pull of cool plays. Helps create clippable, shareable moments and makes the game more accessible.

Idk if this is too much but what if in cash out you team wipe a team and then your regen immediately starts for your whole team, your mag instantly, reloads, and you cooldowns are halved.
