/fhg/ For Honor General

How many people will play Lawbringer?

So can you change directions for any combo string or only certain ones?

Kensei is the only respectable weeb

prove me wrong

Reminder that they made it harder to tech guard breaks

Am I just supposed to accept that the bots are fucking invincible? Especially the warlords, jesus christ. They build revenge so fast because of their instant reaction times that they literally cannot die if you're up against one in Dominion.

Personal tier list at a somewhat higher level and not just noobslaying:
>God-Tier: Warden. Good mixup, fast attacks, can't parry his top.
>Top-Tier: Warlord, Conqueror, Nobushi, Kensei. Haven't seen a lot of Kensei since the buff, would put him on the lower end of top-tier though.
>Mid-Tier: Orochi and Raider, both require a lot of effort to do well with. Orochi is better though.
>Low-Tier: Peacekeeper. Only engage is the top lunge. Otherwise short range. No real mix-ups. The special feint is alright but not special. Only good thing about this champion is the fact you get a ton of damage off of a parry. Not useless but doesn't have the tools the others have.

Man I like the game but sure as hell I'm not going to pay it 60$. I think the game is worth 30$ at best considering it's a game based solely on the multiplayer, there are just 12 total characters and only 2 worth game modes.
The combat system is fun but it lacks the depth of let's say a fighting game so I fear that it would get boring quite fast.

>>167897037
reminder you just got out of practice

shit's just as easy as before

considering I rebound guard break to l1 instead of square, shit actually got easier for me

If you have multiple platforms, avoid PS4, it runs like ass.

- How to slide down ladder fast?

- You can only parry on first hit of a combo? After first hit of combo you should weather the storm and block or side step? No lights are fast enough for combos?

- How to tell when a combo is going and when it stops? The enemy triple guard thingy light up when out of combo state?

- Inputing a combo. How to time it? Is each combo input done during/after the last move hit? Do you dbl/triple tap it, or just spam, the input window seems way too big to matter.

- Is guard break countering not possible at point blank range?

- For Wardens Dbl light attack what is the input timing? If I wait until the first hits to press again it comes out, but slightly slower, is it a combo still? The input window seems so big I'm pressing light atack then dbl tapping light almost a spam to get the combo. How do you do it consistently?

Most of the modes lack depth. Domination will probably die out pretty fast and then we will be left with only tryhards in duels.

Is there a reason why people randomly start re-spawning in skirmish? I though t it was brawl but with 4 players instead of two.

Is Warden a female?

Alright, what's the strategy for getting better gear? All of my drops so far have been level 1.I don't want to scavenge just to get some level 2 shit. Is the strat just to upgrade a piece of gear so you get higher level drops? Is that how it works?

If I install the beta on steam, do I have to reinstall the entire game again once the beta is over?

Otherwise I'll just wait the four days.

Anyone tested if you can counter guard break while you're feinting?

>>167897321
2 modes in skirmish

1 is 4on4 brawl
2 is same mechanic as dominion, but without capture points. Gotta bring the counter up to 1000 for the enemy to break and no longer respawn

>>167897138
Realized I forgot berserker. Don't think I need to further add onto that.
Berserker really doesn't have anything going for him. The infinite combo + combo finisher system is neat, but super impractical. Dodges are good, I guess. But might aswell play Orochi then. I might be oblivious to some super next-level shit but I don't really see it. Low-Tier with PK imo.

Well, basically, you can choose your faction, but still have access to all the characters.

As for playstyle, every character is difference, but each faction has one of four categories. Heavy, Vanguard, Assassin, and Hybrid (read:none of the above).

I really need Lawbringer.

first time playing it this beta

a lot of potential to be a fantastic game but ultimately ruined completely by the playerbase. weebs are literal cancer. only 1v1 and 2v2 are viable to play because the other modes are literally just your 3 weeb teammates die within 5 seconds and you 1v3 every. single. round. simulator

wouldve bought the game but not after this beta experience

I would literally kill myself if I played a weeb character. every single one of them is a absolute subhuman

brand new player here, i've done the basic and advanced tutorials, i've done an hour or so of 4v4 co-op vs AI.

I have not seen any reference to "Cancelling" thus far, I have seen one tooltip that mentioned "Feint" but I can't find a key or info that seems relevant.

How do you cancel or feint?

i get this feeling a lot when i play with really good orochis and wardens that carry me. i wish they would add me. im a girl btw but a smelly viking so they won't go near me

Can someone help me with the Warden? What's their zoning attack? What moves are the best?

>>167900447
yeah, just press t then tab
took me a while to figure out

>>167900743
If you're playing with a controller, its B(xbox) or Circle(ps4). You have to press it sometime after the attack starts and before the attack hits

>>167900743
Feints are done with circle or B button to end a heavy short

Cancels aren't exactly feints, but attacks turned into others on startup, like the raider's heavy -> stun tap and kensei's overhead unblockable -> side swipe

CRUSH KNIGHT SCUM!

THEY WILL HOLD 0 TERRITORIES AT THE END OF THIS BETA

Holy fucking cow it's annoying when people do Unblockable attacks on my Conquerer.

>>167900743
Cancels happen by using other moves, any heavy can be canceled early by pressing B on xboner E on pc.

>>167900896
KISSE CAVO

>>167900930
Ahh, I don't use a controller but from that I can figure it out. Thank you very much!

>>167900896
Their zone attack is a quick stamina costly haymaker that always comes from the right side and can work wonders as a tool of misdirection in mixups.

However, it can be punished by an untechable grab even after blocking

Did the game slow down for anyone else for a few minutes? Like, it wasn't even an FPS drop. The game actually slowed down.

>>167901174
Can press square to "add" and then mass dismantle on the selected.

It's done by pressing heavy and light attack together, like all zone attacks.

Has anyone noticed how the UI, while looking okay is actually a fucking deep-fried abortion in terms of usability?

Menus, maps, inventories, everything takes too many confirmations, clicks and presses to go anywhere.

Off the top of my head:
>Dash into light always goes top. You can also quick-feint your heavy into a top light.
>Your zone attack (heavy and light at the same time) is unblockable and does a ton of damage.
>If you knock people onto the ground with the guardbreak followup, you can get a free unblockable. If you throw (not charge!) someone into a wall and they're an idiot you can get a free heavy+unblockable.
>Just parrying and getting guaranteed unblockables will win you fights against mediocre players. Against very good players (very rare) you'll need to do a lot of feinting and mindgames.

Raider is definitely mid/low-tier and requires some effort to get right.

Don't listen to this retard. Warden, Raider, Kensei, Conqueror, Berserker, and Orochi are male or female. Valkyrie, Peacekeeper, and Nobushi are only female. Lawbringer, Shugoki, and Warlord are only male.

I'd say that KB+M is the optimal setup simply from the ease with which you can reach all the buttons.

Controller is a lot more comfortable though. You will need to rebind guardbreak though, hold the controller very uncomfortably, or be a south korean 14y/o on ritalin and energy drinks. Otherwise you'll get noobstomped by Peacekeepers and good players.

None of the viKANGZ are cancerous though. Literally none of them.

Raider doesn't even really do anything except for remove your UI occasionally. Parry his unblockable and ez game.

If you get killed by the one player who plays Berserker you might aswell just accept the fact you've never seen the champion before and deal with the fact he dodges a lot.

Warlord isn't even an issue anymore after headbutt cancel nerf. His headbutt thrust barely tickles, so you don't even have to dodge it.

The only annoying thing about vikangz is that they can toss you anywhere. But just learn how to tech guardbreaks and don't stand near ledges and vikings are the weakest faction as a whole.

i suppose you think ur a funny cunt eh?

What makes Warden so good? His attacks are slow enough that he seems no better than Kensei. But I've only played a couple hours so what do I know. It just seems that the Assassins are far more difficult to deal with

Okay, another stupid question, what the hell is "Tech"? How do you "Tech" a guard break and how is that different from just performing a guard break?

>>167902394
tap guardbreak a few times when the enemy does it

>>167902416
He has absolutely no negatives. He just has a ton of positives.

>>167902078
Hey, don't worry anon, you'll get 'em eventually. It's actually way more important to anticipate guard-breaks than it is to focus on successfully teching.

For instance, any class that can do a lot of damage from a successful guard-break (Peacekeeper, Conqueror, Orochi, etc.) will get try and close the distance with you. If you're aware of this and focused on their stance, you can usually see the red shield icon just in time.

>>167902394
As long as you weren't in an animation when the guardbreak occured (dodge, for example) you can break out of it by hitting your own guardbreak as it connects. You can mash it without adverse effects to get the right timing.

>>167900060
raider is a bit underwhelming, but he's decent enough

learn to block, learn to parry. you're slow, in a game that's pretty slow by default. you're going to have to learn how to be patient and wait for openings. either wait for a parry or swing a few lights their way to get them to turtle up then start guardbreaking with your longer range grab

speaking of guardbreaks, raider can take advantage of the environment more than any other class (besides maybe warlord) due to his throw pushing them pretty dang far and his neutral throw dazing people if you wallsplat them. wallsplat into another throw is fun as hell and works great

his light + heavy is unblockable. don't abuse it, but it's there. you can cancel your heavy attacks into a fast light attack.

he does a lot of damage but he has to work harder than the other classes to get it out

>>167902416
Assassins punish inexperience and sloppy reactions

Warden is top tier mixer upper with a versatile and effective kit

>>167902440
well, when you guardbreak a guardbreak, you're technig out of it.

easier to say. you can tech of GB. better than saying.. whatever you're thinking of.

>>167902416
His Light are fast and his heavies are as slow as anyone else's. He has immunity to all attacks from above and his zone is really fast.

>>167902121
It's a classic mate

>>167902215
That's the one thing I don't get about the console version.
Some of the button mappings are just plain retarded, like clicking stick to sprint or having both light and heavy attack on the trigger and shoulder. Meanwhile Left Bumber is useless and Y is only used for Revenge/Taunt when that can be on the D-Pad.

But of course they won't let us remap them ourselves

>>167902440

>>167903191
I heard from some guy that its just chasing the direction quickly from top to side and back to top. Since you can already pretty easily cancel the top unblockable into a side heavy uninterruptible, it must just be switching quickly. Or maybe its some animation cancel bug

>>167903043
>>167903191
>holy shit wtf is that

wat?

He feinted the unblockable, did a forward dash and then did a regular top heavy (no orange glow). The chip damage was enough to kill the other person, nothing busted here.

i never double tap and i almost always tech the guardbreak so you tell me man

>>167903168
retards with no spatial awareness deserve to be punished for it until they learn

>>167903168
Spikes and ledges are really bad design in duels imo. First person to get grabbed dies, and it's not really satisfying to kill someone with it after the 10th time unless they rage.

Personally, if I get killed by it I accept it's my fault that I died, but also that the system is retarded. When the other guy does nothing but spam guardbreaks, waits at ledges and actively does everything in his power to knock me off, I get a bit annoyed, but not salty.

I'd say that knocking people off is definitely not praise-worthy behaviour, but it's part of the game and no one should get salty over it.

It's their fault for not paying attention to their surroundings.

rewatch that webm and tell me after he cancels the unblockable that his second heavy doesnt have an oreange glow

>>167903519
never said it was, pal

it's a regular top heavy attack, the chip damage finished him off

>>167903413
The top heavy doesnt include the spin, and the opponent very clearly was blocking up as the hit landed, but the kensei still got the kill

>>167903520
the bots are better than most people

so basically if i play with a mouse and keyboard im at a disadvantage?

>>167903569
ditto

>>167903520
For Honor is a lot like other fighting games. If you play against someone who is better than you, it feels like bashing your head against the wall.

I'd recommend doing the regular and advanced tutorial, then watching the regular and advanced video for your class (they're in game, just go over to the class and select 'How to Fight').

After that, fight level 1, 2, and 3 bots.

>>167903413
I actually can't tell with certainty what direction the enemy kensei is blocking, if looks like he is either blocking top or left, if he is blocking left then it could have been a regular heavy, but there is definitely an orange glow

>>167903608
That was the unblockable animation.

>Be PK
>Against Cuckerer
>Can't attack from any angle, he just blocks and staggers me

Fun game, totally worth $60. Cuckerer is completely balanced.

>>167903520
The bots are fucking stronk m8, try a level 3.

>>167903624
Not at all

Mouse and Keyboard vs Controller is meme bullshit. They're both completely fine.

In fact, at the tippty top 100% god level Mouse and Keyboard is probably a little bit better.

>>167903608
You don't die to chip damage

I KEEP LOCKING ON TO THE WRONG PERSON REEEEEEEEEEE

>>167903608
That ain't no regular heavy either, buddy
Note orange glow of the blade itself coming down.
This is one of those weird things that's been happening in all the alphas, tech tests and betas I've taken part in so far.

Is this worth a buy for only singleplayer?

My grandpa, who literally never saw a computer in his life, could have programmed more responsive mouse control than this.

Should I tell him I'm just a shitter that got lucky?

>>167903889
Maybe, considering that the bots can actually be tough. Its not like its Street Fighter and you only have fun against players and not the cpu

>>167903949
ganbatte nigga

>>167903949
Look out for the red glow on them, that way the timing is the same no matter what hero you are playing against

>>167903742
Hahahahahahahaha How The Fuck Is Loosing Againt Conqueror Real Hahahaha Nigga Just Dodge Away From The Charge Like Nigga Feint Your Attacks Haha

Memes aside; As a PK it's literally impossible for you to loose against conqueror. He can't kill you in a single hit at 1bar unless it's a charged-up R2, he can't catch up to you and he can't combo you unless you're a failure and don't dodge the charge followup after a heavy. Just run away and it's a guaranteed tie at that point.

yes it does, go play Kensei

it doesn't, pic related

If the other guy wasn't at 1/4 of a hp bubble you might have a point, but as it is, it's chip damage

>fight level 2 bots, getting my ass reamed four ten hours until I finally master the blade and can beat them 3/4 of the time
