The Finals update 1.4.1 patch notes

On January 11, 2024, Embark Studios' X/Twitter account revealed the full list of changes made in the 1.4.1 update. For keyboard players, it's great news as the developers have decided to make significant adjustments to aim assist.

  • Zoom snapping angular velocity now has a max cap, preventing unintended rapid 90-degree turns.
  • Camera Magnetism will be reduced to 35% from 50%, making player aim less sticky and lowering controller accuracy.
  • Zoom snapping time will be reduced to 0.25s from 0.3s.
  • Zoom snapping will be removed from the SR-84 sniper rifle, Revolver, LH1, and all shotguns, as it buffs them more than other weapons.
  • Aim assist will ignore invisible players, fixing a bug with the existing system.
  • Clients running key re-mapping programs on PC will not have access to aim assist.

As a result of these changes, aim assist will be far less influential for controllers, levelling out the playing field in cross-platform matches. We'll have to wait and see what the full impact of the changes later down the line but with another update due in the not-too-distant future, there's every chance Embark plans on further adjustments.

There you have it, that's everything there is to know about The Finals update 1.4.1 patch notes. For more The Finals intel, check out the best Medium build and whether the game features cross-progression.
