The Finals now has the best destruction tech I've seen in any game
"As shown in the X post above, Smooth Destruction allows satisfying knock-on destruction effects that players crave. Realistic? Well, perhaps not. Some have noted that the architecture appears to have no weight, splintering like apart like Styrofoam. But it's impressive if the upgrade doesn't have any performance impact, and it does add to the gameplay by opening new strategic options. Some players now want to see it Battlefield."
"In its patch notes, it says: "With this new update, we're dialing up the cascading damage that can occur when buildings or objects fall into others. Starting with suspended structures and cranes, making these crash down can cause real damage and totally reshape the environment, creating new emergent play spaces in the process!" It says it plans to spread Smooth Destruction across every Arena."
Season 8 of The Finals introduces Smooth Destruction, a system that allows collapsing structures to damage other buildings and objects, producing knock-on effects. Suspended structures and cranes can be brought down to cause cascading damage that reshapes the environment and opens emergent play spaces. The upgrade adds strategic options without reported performance impact and has prompted players to envision the feature in larger shooters. Some observers note that demolished architecture can splinter unrealistically, lacking weight in certain moments. Embark calls the change a "fundamental leap forward" and plans to extend Smooth Destruction across every arena, integrating it into the game's core systems.
