>combat is just slightly flashier Mountain Blade with less depth
>no real reason to keep playing once you've maxed level

>>379310283
How can you even have less depth than mountain blade? That combat system isn't exactly complex.

>>379310359

Fights are 2v2 and separate from the fodder fights, which make Dynasty Warriors look tactically complex
Combat boils down to the same high-low-left-right shit from M&B

>>379309881
still no 1v1v1 mode

what the fuck are you smoking ubisoft

>>379310554
To be fair, each character has a pretty varied playstyle and when stamina is involved, the combat gets a bit more complex, but the majority of the time, you're not going to be matched up against anyone that requires more than rock paper scissors.

>>379310359
the mechanics themselves aren't "complex" but they are useful and require skill. Someone who knows how to properly chamber and time kicks will destroy someone with better equipment who only knows how to block and attack.

I don't give a shit what changes they have made since. Nothing will dig For Honor out of the grave for me. The entire experience was a rollercoaster of poor design choices and ineptitude.

>>379309881
Game is shit, the combat is more passive than any Souls game. Literaly zero reason to attack first.

I love For Honor but anything that isn't pure combat is absolute dogshit.
It got the ubisoft treatment where it's actually a good IP with potential ruined by poor management and technical incompetence that shouldn't exist in a AAA company.

It still amazes me how after all these years they still can't make good netcode, decent matchmaking and an UI that is understandable by human beings.

I blame the extreme unbalance of the characters.

Shinobi, Warlord, Warden, and Cent need to be nerfed so fucking badly.

Very easy to dodge and punish. The dumbest shit when i played beta was peacekeepers hitting 1 guard break and getting 35% of your hp of it every time.

Please for the love of fuck remove the I-frames on dodges

I'm tired of faggots phasing through my side heavies. Fucking Soul Calibur figured this shit out years ago; dodge back to avoid horizontal attacks, dodge side to avoid vertical attacks.

Even worse when they are in a corner, dodge without moving an inch, and my shit still phases through them.

I was (haven't touched it in forever) pretty good and I can say the biggest problem with the combat is exactly that.

After a certain skill level people don't react to feints anymore and attacking first means wasting stamina at best or getting fucked by a counter at worst.

That is what i'm fuckin' sayin', man. The game was a rough diamond and all it needed was a bit of cutting and a polish. Too bad Ubisoft look at every IP they're offered and think "Now how can we possibly fuck this up?" and then put every plan into action.

>>379311718
All of Souls pvp is like that once you get past random shitters and those poor lost souls trying to have "fun"
it's just circle around exactly outside of the opponent's range and see who gets bored and tries to attack and dies for it first

>>379312279
>(haven't touched it in forever)

only Orochi is the only one i think that sucks at attacking first

>>379312284
That's not how it works, you claim I'm wrong.
But whatever. The pure existence of the parry mechanic makes most attacks (that aren't quicker than your average reaction time) useless.

>>379309881
Rainbow six siege was a fluke

>>379311623

If not attacking first is still asking for damage since parries are piss easy.

>>379311856
Playing right now on ps4... Still good soo far get the same guys only once


It was faded to be a niche game since the First beta

>>379312345
Yep, but mindgames are a thing in Souls. Bait the opponent. You have many options.
All you can do is faint in For Honor, so it basicly becomes a 50/50 guessing game.

Revenge mode shouldn't exist and it should have launched with dedicated servers. With p2p and their shit balance this was dead on arrival

>>379309881
does this game still uses peer to peer for multiplayer and anyone with a lag switch can fuck you over?

>>379312694
Yep, gotta spam Orochi/Warden zone attacks or you get parried.

>>379312308
The problem with For Honor is that the devs tried to remake fighters without actually going and looking at what makes fighters work. So you ended up with a million terrible design decisions festering up a core of fun ideas.

So SFxT all over again really.

>>379312901
in days of modern gaming people still use lagswitches? I thought those went the way of the dodo and trashtalking outside of party chats

>>379309881
I think it had pretty good run for a shitty game.

>Steam stats

I mean I'm sure it's down, but Steam stats is retarded when it comes to Ubisoft games. A ton of people I play Siege with use Uplay because it was cheaper

probably because you can't tell the difference between general lag and a lag switch because they look effectively the same

>>379313616
I had about one in every 10 people I invaded in DS2 use a lagswitch on me. It got to the point where I played with CE open so if I ran into yet another guy who was completely invulnerable and warping around (but suspiciously only when I was near him) I'd just turn on invulnerability and spam acid flasks

>>379313682
Probably because nearly no one lagswitches on PC. You can easily tell lag and lagswitchers apart. Most people don't even lag that bad and if they do it's always Australia, Brazil, China or North Korea.

Hot news: contrary to popular belief, people actually DON'T play a video games they bought for the rest of their lives!

The core of the game is solid but I can't blame people for leaving.

There are some fucking idiotic game decisions, the balance is pretty fucked and people are getting kicked out of games all the time when the host disconnects.

Also devs seem to be incapable or unwilling of doing anything about those issues. Connectivity issues are still there, they've done some balancing but seems for every balance fix they fuck something up, little variety in gear and all game modes are boring.

there, game's fixed. I'd also be partial to making light attacks unparryable, just blockable, but I don't know what that would do long term.

The game was fun as hell, and I can't regret buying it considering how many hours I put into it. The servers is what made me quit, and as far as I'm aware, it still hasn't been improved. I think if it had better servers, it could've lasted longer, maybe even spawned a small, dedicated fanbase. But the matchmaking, gear/revenge being broken, and the servers quickly put an end to it. In fact, I believe the point that I quit, was around the time the PK was adjusted to what she should've been. One of the most annoying characters I've ever had to fight.

This was always the plan

Are you sure you weren't just playing literally anything on PC because that's normal for the platform

I really wanted to get this game since I kicked so much ass in the beta but knew it was shallow. What a shame

this. Tried the game in beta, it was funny but the connectivity problems were absolutely shit.
I'm glad I didn't buy it and I ditched my friends. They stopped playing it withing one month anyway

>That one faggot teammate who stabs you in the spine in every teamfight

Shame, it was a fun game. I mostly stopped playing it because it felt like you had to put down a lot of time to actually do well, which didn't feel worth it.
Some shit I don't get why they put in though
