PC cuck here, I want to buy a controller to play this, probably an Xbox one, is it worth getting the elite version (saw a few people mention it in previous threads) or is the standard one good enough? Assume you can remap the controls with third party software even if the game doesn't let you?

Nice try
psstWhen fighting nobushi, always expect the kick after a heavy, whether it whiffs/is blocked/connects, the safest bet is always to parry it of course. Also, when she does her zone attack, if she's not into feinting the second part of the attack then it's an easy parry. If she does tend to feint it then be prepared to feint your parry attempt.

Can you really be mad about a ledge kill if the fight moves there and you were in the health range of being killed by a heavy attack?
That is, you're basically dead and the guy finishes you a little quicker and easier than normal rather than denying you a fight by ledging you at the start.

A parry isn't a block. They are two different things.

and to be fair you can't blame the raider for going for it since 99% of players don't have the timing or don't know you can parry it

So there has to be more than 3 executions per character, right? Because they removed one of the Warden's executions as well (the one where they put the blade to the enemy's neck and then spin around to chop off their head).
I really want the shield bash execution. The Head Scissor looks cool, but his other two (the shield uppercut and the one where he flips you over) look kind of stupid.

Unblockables should have a charge function where you can delay/fast-track the swing depending on when you release the trigger.
Would make them more intimidating for skilled players, so they can't just memorize the timing.

Because it's NOT so easy unless you fight each character enough times to learn their patterns. In all my time playing I haven't met a single person that focuses on parries except myself and even after all the practice I still miss from time to time and it becomes even worse when I have to think of dozens of other possibilities or fight against more than one player.
And leaving all of that aside, I'm sure we'd have people start complaining on how unblockables are broken if they couldn't even be parried. Only difference is that blocking is way easier to do.

I've been on the edge about getting this game but I have one question, will there be a mode that completely removes the stance symbols? I think it's retarded that the game flashes in big red where you need to block and I think it's just holding peoples hands way too much.
Also any word on adjusting the game modes? You should not be able to revive in brawl or have baby casual powerups in elimination
>>168219421
yep
pure african nignog
>>168218757
Parrying is countered by feint into grab, as the parry attempt makes you start a heavy attack and the grab catches the start of a heavy attack. Grab leads to damage or a OHK.
The real problem is that unblockable "mixups" like Kensei's can be avoided entirely by just double tapping back dodge to roll out, and somebody who stands there blocking without trying to parry doesn't have anything to fear from feints. Once people get really good it seems that only a few characters have mixups legitimate enough that it won't be possible to defend against them 100%.

You canceled the overhead unblockable into the side attack but this guy was clearly a shitter since he went for the guardbreak right away. A wiser read would've been to just play greedy and let the overhead finish and then reset back to neutral to try and bait another guardbreak attempt out of him.
Props for actually canceling the overhead though. I played kensei during the open beta and it took me awhile to get the timing on that right, and I never once met another kensei who knew how to do it.

He didn't stop the overhead with a guardbreak, he was mashing light which the guy would have swung through as that side slash has armour. It just happens that his hit bounced off the fucking fence, and the guy randomly pressing buttons got a free GB in the stagger. Having so little control over movement and swing direction while locked on like this is going to get frustrating.

Except you don't know when the attack is actually coming so you can make a mistake in movement and leave yourself open unless you play a defensive position from the start. Or you can be dazed before hand. Or you can be fighting against more than one player. Or you can be knocked down. And then where will you be?

The game probably needs a lot more control in general. It might seem like you have a lot of mechanics to play with but every tool available to you is binary, you've minimal control over timing and spacing which are the 2 variables most high level fighting game play is based around. You would think that differences in range would make movement more important, but when defence works on reaction against everything from any range there is no "danger zone" range where a player getting into a particular distance becomes a threat.
A few close range really fast options might fix this. Imagine if back+GB did a GB attempt which was near instant, but did not perform the forward step animation that you normally get, making it only usable when you're touching noses. Now if somebody does close the distance you have to deal with the threat of an instant GB, and all of a sudden you now have to guess. Perfect defence goes out the window and you're now choosing between a light attack to catch the GB attempt, your own GB attempt, a back dash to make the grab whiff which would be vulnerable to a regular slow GB, or any potential counter to those options from the other guy, like waiting and parrying their light.

You're not reading what I'm saying and you're not watching the webm. Why do you think the guy's comment was "I should have gone left". He cancels into right side slash, he hits the fence, the other guy's mashed light which would have traded with the armour on the side slash cancel (because it's armoured) hits him during the reelback from hitting the fence. Then he uses GB.
I don't know why you're getting upset friendo, I'm describing what happens in the video for you because you seem to be struggling. A left side cancel would have avoided the fence and hit the Warden through his light, he got fucked by a fence.

It's literally in the tutorial. The reason to not cancel it is because we're in beta and everybody stands there trying to block it anyway.

You can keep pushing it all you want, it doesn't change what's there. And calling me upset is pretty lame dude, it's like admitting that you're upset yourself and trying to drag me into it because you're frustrated by my insistence.
The guy did go left, so I don't know why he said that. He's probably confused. The animation cancel was into the left-side quick attack, as anyone can clearly see (except you apparently). My advice was that going left would not have improved his situation any, and he should've just gone for the overhead instead of the cancel. Furthermore, the side slash cancel does not have armor (of course you'll argue with this instead of just sourcing it if you disagree) and would've been interrupted by the guy mashing quick attack. The guy gets off his GB because of the cancel delaying the attack too long, which created a window for him. The fence had nothing to do with it, but that's a nice excuse for a bad read. I give it 7/10 for obscurity.

Are you sure you weren't playing lvl2s?
I'm pretty sure the couple 3s I faced loved their feints.
>>168217214
Abuse uninterruptiple heavy attacks.
Abuse forward dashes and be an aggressive fuck. This is good because there's a lot of things you can do off the forward dash. You can headsplitter leap, you can head butt, or you can just go for a normal guardbreak if they like to side-dash (it will follow them to their destination).
If you get someone really evasive that punishes you for being aggressive, your only choice is to turtle up and play the parry game.
One last tip, and an important one: USE. YOUR. ZONE ATTACK. Trust me.

I canceled into a right heavy attack and hit the little ornament which caused me to stagger back. I couldn't do anything in that brief moment of recovery and got thrown off as a result. I said I wanted to to go left because hitting the ornament definitely would not have happened
I can't remember if the cancel into a side light has super armour because I never use it but the cancel into a side heavy does so my attack would've gone uninterrupted. That ornament fucked me over entirely

Jewbisoft sounds better.
Is this game worth buying at all? Played some of the closed beta and it didn't seem to have a lot of depth or longevity. Are those $60 justified or just another Ubishit game?
>>168221836
I'm not aware of any cancel into a side light. You can feint the overhead and do a side light, but then you're just doing a regular side light. The side heavy cancels which don't use the feint buttons are both armoured though as you said. It's funny because if they weren't armoured you would have been interrupted by the hit, and would then have been able to break the Warden's GB.
>>168222156
don't know that I would have paid 60 for it, but I was able to get it for 40 which is what I would consider worth it
>>168220810
They feint. They even feint into GB as a parry counter, but they don't change their habits based on what you're doing so they aren't human-like in any way. If you keep parrying into big damage they won't change the amount of feints they do. Sticking a lv3 bot in 99 round duels and just standing there defending against it is still good reaction practice though.

The game surprised me with its depth multiple times. It felt really good intuiting a new combo on a character or discovering a mechanic the tutorials did a shit job of explaining and then stepping my game up. I've never been into serious fighting games, but this seems like a fun step up from something very casual like Smash. Maybe it's not worth it for you, but after four days of playing I can't wait for more.

>>168222556
I always like to think of how people get flustered when they finally meet a Peacekeeper that actually uses her parrying ability to fight. I've had players just stay still looking at me after parrying like 3 attacks of theirs in a row while just standing there waiting for them.
>>168222768
The champions do play sufficiently differently from each other that you'll have a certain comfort zone when playing certain characters.
>>168222768
It's a fighting game, maining is how you win. For Honor is especially good for this because there's not really any 'hard counters'. There are hard matchups, sure, but they're far from unwinnable. If you really know your character you should have a fighting chance against anybody.

>Answer 1:git

wow, perfect score, easiest university credits of my life
>>168223559
Well, the problem right now is the game is completely blind pick, and she flat out counters over half the cast.
There is almost nothing you can do to get in, because even if you PARRY her, she is too far away to guard break.
Of course she can get shit on by a good peacekeeper, or a good Warden (because a lot of her attacks are top) but if you're playing Conqueror or Raider, good luck m8.
>>168223719
Pretty sure the sword is shorter than the spear, but I might be wrong.
>>168223719
>explain why noobushi has the longest range guard break (5 marks)
Because it has huge startup. Like you actually have to be retarded or be blind to get hit by that, all you have to do is dash to the side. You have no excuses
>explain why noobushi has orochi speed lights at twice the range (12 marks)
It's not actually as fast as orochi, you're exaggerating. The range on her lights aren't even that long range either, the only really long range moves she has is her forward dash + light and back+light and heavies, of course
>>168223836
>Conqueror
Wut? Just Bum rush her with the shield advance and get her against a wall, then shit in her mouth.
>>168223719
Because that is her special.
All her shit is easy to dodge and block, and she is completely at the enemy's mercy if they got forward deflect or crush counter because they cant cancel their top poke, and their side dash is punishable on block.
If any opponents doesnt have those, warlord will eventually win with headbutts and conq can just counter-heavy with block properties.
Are you fucking new to this game?

>but if you're playing Conqueror or Raider, good luck m8
I think I lost once to her in duels. Then I learned how to block.
>>168223836
Guard Break isn't the only thing you can do after a parry, some chars can even get heavies and if your character can't you can still get a free dash and go from there to see if she backs off or not
>>168223938
>All her shit is easy to dodge and block
This, she doesn't really have many moves at her disposal to mix you up, if you get hit by her long pokes, you're just bad for not blocking or trying to hit a move outside of your range.
If you get hit by her lights, you're just bad for not blocking and/or mashing.
If you get hit by her heavies, you are EXTREMELY bad
>>168223970Monokuma?
>>168223919
>>168223993
Do you just fight Nobushi who don't use kick, or cancel into back dash?
It also is highly map dependent. There are some maps where you're never, ever going to corner her because they're very open.
However, there are some maps (like that Canyon one, I think it's a viking map) where the whole thing is one long corridor and she has no room to move, she gets fucked bad on that level.

So why do people always play cautiously when I run out of stamina and drop back to recharge?

But nobody ever punishes me when I run out of stamina and say "yeah let me retreat and recover"

Post mains and who you're going to main in the release. I'm going to try out the law and if I like him stick with him
>>168224403
do you do a top heavy or a side heavy?
Is it true that parries guarantee an uncounter able guard break and if so is it from parrying a heavy or light attack, or both?
I can't wait to fight scrub PKs again who do nothing but try and GB and crush them.
>>168224403
Because running out of stamina isn't really something that affects anyone decent. You can still block, feint, counter guard break, and dodge even with no stamina.
Anyone decent will have no issues with defending with no stamina and when out of stamina people just become ultra defensive, which makes fighting even harder. If i'm fighting someone good, and they run out of stamina, I just let them recover. It happened a lot to me too.

I'd like to know how because I don't see any window for you to do something from my parry to the stab which adds the bleeding effect if I remember correctly. Maybe afterwards you might be able to do something but after the stab there's a stagger.

if you mash light attack, you can't really be guardbroken. true, you can do it at the end of a combo, but even then you can tech out of it. and assuming i'm remembering right, that also knocks the guard breaking fucker on his ass.

Hey, I am looking forward to buying this game, so I have a question: are people playing dominion of most of them play 1v1 / 2v2 ?
>>168225045
I still don't see it working. I can just use my dash and light attack combination and even if I didn't, I'm not doing anything other than dodging and I still have the ability to block instead. If I dodge forward and you feint, even then I can just got for a GB or I can do my own feints or I can simply stand still waiting for you to attack again or go for a GB yourself....well that depends on the class, I wouldn't do that ith Warlords or Conquerors. And even THEN you say you're bad against light attacks, that's my favorite thing to do. Random sides light attacks.
And putting that all aside, I'm sure you're not used to Peacekeepers usig parry. I'M not used to it and it's my main and I never saw even one doing it in beta. So I'm sure you won't be on the look out and by the time you figure out she is one of them it'll be too late. I only stand around with Orochis because of how easy they are to parry.
>>168225290

Did it fuck up my stats?
Hell yeah it did
Could I have left at any time to preserve my winrate and find easier opponents?
Fuck yeah I could
Did duelling him make me a far better player in the long run?
You better believe it did
Also it was a fuckton more fun than shitting on scrubs.
Winrate is amusing to look at when it works out, but it's really nothing to brag about other than to show that you're not actively looking for a challenge.

you can't
if I know you will just dodge instead of going for a dodge attack I can just go for a guardbreak and you cannot tech it.
Duels are always best of 5, I can tell when someone is parrying me. You are going to get away maybe the first two times in the first round. That may very well be enough to kill me, but after that it's fair game.

Being aggressive against an OOS opponent can be punished, since only the lighter classes can close the distance without unlocking & sprinting forward. (which opens you up to a pre-emptive light punish from the OOS enemy)

People built walls because vikings were being complete niggers sacking villages that lacked actual military protection, only to run when the actual fighting force showed up.

does the +10% xp boost from delux friends stack with my +25% xp boost?
If For Honor really has the skeleton or basics of an fighting game (what I mostly play) isn't it time for the community to start talking about advantage's, frames and dedication?
For example Nobushi's kick. Sure it's slow as fuck but that doesn't translate to you being able to dodge it 24/7. If she hit's a side step R2 (great opener ) and chains that to a kick, she is at an advantage before the animation and we have a different scenario.
Also, you can't dodge or sidestep if you are already dedicated to a move you made many frames ago (example guard break).
Tldr; please describe different scenarios or moves more accurately.

Why? I don't understand this nonsense. As you said her advancing attacks are by far the easiest to deal with, the best option the class has is to stand in your face and throw quick lights with heavy>GB feints mixed in when you start trying to Parry. Mobility doesn't mean anything in 1on1 as the class doesn't actually do anything from way back there.

At first I thought Dominion was the shitter game mode and Brawl was the best compromise between the 1v1's and the clusterfucks of 4v4's. But after a while of playing, Dominion is way more fun. Ganking in a Brawl is frustrating because it means your teammate lost and you take the brunt of the bullshit, getting ganked in Dominion means the enemy sees you as so much of a threat to them that they send two guys at you. For example.
>play Conqueror in Dominion
>farm soldiers in mid close to their spawn all game
>they either let me get my feats and hold B the entire game or send 2+ guys to deal with me
>have feat that gives me health for killing soldiers and feat that gives me health for blocking
>if I get both I practically become unkillable and they have to send 3 people in to kill me

That's a single player game. Buy her For Honor and play the co-op campaign. If she likes Dark Souls I'm fairly certain she can get into For Honor.

>>168225776
>>If I know
I don't know how all classes work, but most of the time upper attacks are pretty easy to see coming and take longer to arrive. That's the only time I would actually dash towards you. To do a parry with PK I have to do it at the exact moment your attack hits, so I'll have time to see if it's a feint or not. Second it was only one possibility, one I would rarely take and only if it was a match we were winning by a large marging and/or I had full life. Third, I can't beat mindreaders. I don't know how you'll just know I'll only dodge. Maybe they way I explained things made you feel dodging is all I do all the time making myself predictable.
>> I can tell when someone is parrying me
You can't tell a Peacemaker is parrying you because it's literally just dodging when the attack hits.There's no signal for it. I can't move way before it lands and certainly not after. I'm not saying I can see the attack, but when you fight the same class so many times you get a feel for when the attack will land.
>>168225001

He was never popular. Even when he was almost OP, no one played him. He got a few heavy nerfs, and is now even less popular.
He is fun, but as the class description says he is a counter attack, and it's hard to go on the offense. The most frustrating bit is trying to finish off people at low HP, because if they can counter guard breaks, you really have no way to reliably kill them.

you get 1 free attack after a parry, that's it. and that's the problem, that's the only way to get guaranteed safe damage in this way. if you don't attack, you can't get hurt. there is not a single attack in the game that is uncounterable and unpunishable, not a single one
you can't "wombo combo" a good player, he will just block/tech/parry everything you do.

Holy shit, Vikings are 110% unadulterated edgelord status, I'm staying where I am.
"We are all that remain of an ancient people. That is why each of our warriors must be the match of ten of our enemies. Fearless, disciplined assassins from a faraway land, We fight and die in the name of our ancestors. Our courage is unwavering, our skill unmatched. Masters of war, our blades strike quickly, silently, lethally. For there is no honor in defeat. Are you worthy of the samurai?"
"On the battlefield, we are ruthless beasts, Unleashing our fury upon the weak. Only in the madness of the war, do we truly feel alive. Unburdened by the fear of death, we rejoice in battle, Welcoming a worthy end that will grant us entry into valhalla. Our strength and ferocity are unmatched and unstoppable. There is no choice. Join the warborn or die."
"Bound by an unbreakable oath, We have sworn to defend our homeland to the death. Those who dare attempt to seize it, will be pacified by steel. We are the righteous, avowed to shield the weak from the wicked. Where lawlessness and oppression reign, We deliver swift and uncompromised justice. We are the noble knights of the iron legion. Stand with us, or be judged by our blades."

Wombo_combo.exe works on everyone from the worst to the best.
In case you don't know what the wombo_combo.exe is, it's warden Parry?Grab>R1R1>shoulder Bash/Grab if they dodge>R1R1 etc. There is no way out of this combo unless the warden runs out of stamina or fucks up the attack timing (which I won't).
This is the true power of warden. wombo_combo.exe
>>168227542
Just so you know, it's not a pre-order key with the pre-order bonus. You are just pre-paying for a launch day key. So no bonus.
>>168227665
see that's the problem. the only way to beat someone who is good at blocking is to wait for them to attack and block/parry and punish. so you end up with 2 good players who do nothing but wait the other one to take an aggressive action and then punish
i don't know if feints are going to be enough to promote aggressive play. somehow i doubt it
>>168226069
To be a full faction, you'd need a Vanguard (well-rounded), an Assassin (light and fast), a Heavy (tough defenses), and a Hybrid (typically uses a polearm, is a mixture of two other classes).

>You sure about that mate? Knights were usually rich as fuck and could buy all the horses they wanted.
yet knights still fought on foot. There was a large period around 1400 where being on a horse was somewhat of a disadvantage. Both france and England found this out
>>168227836
Thank for explaining the meaning of those words like we've never fucking played the game before.
>>168225749
Where?
>>168227863
Games take input from the player and give it to the server. Hackers will tamper with this input to make it do something other than what the game intended. If you have a dedicated server, then you can put in ways to check what is and isn't valid input. If the connections are P2P (that is, no server, players connect to each other), then tampering is harder to detect
>>168227665
>tactics on how to beat someone cheating?
Unblockables.
shitters using it will rely on it and not know how to parry. unless it has auto parry or auto dodge you can just btfo them with Kensei's unblockable hit > they realize they can't autoblock and try to dodge second time > cancel into side heavy > shitter btfo
>>168227941
You have to spell these things out sometimes, especially if you're going to go through the effort of putting a new faction together.
>>168227767
England is kinda famous with knights fighting on foots since everyone and their mothers would use spear formations at the time, meaning being on a horse was not as good as you thought it'd be.
Also plate armor wasn't that heavy, the weight was distributed through body parts, I'm not saying it was like wearing a shirt but not like being a walking tank either.

>shoulder Bash
you can dodge out of that or tech it. i think i did it a couple of times. it won't be a free attack since you've already done r1r1
>grab
also techable, or just counter it with light attacks
again, you only get one free attack after a parry, after that you can start countering offensive actions on reaction again
>start with a parry
how are you going to parry a player who doesn't attack?
Question, my friend and are sharing psn accounts so each one can download games for free. If we do this for the For Honor gold edition, will only one of us get the dlc? I'm sure that's the case for the season pass. But I'm not sure how it works for the emotes and armor.
>>168228060
>Lying
Why would you do that on the internet?
>>168225974
It... mostly doesn't matter because of the way the game is set up. You need to know that blocking a light gives frame advantage, and which actions are guaranteed after which situations, but the situation where frame advantage really matters a lot (both players performing offensive actions at the earliest possible opportunity) isn't relevant. As you're never forced to take action, due to how powerful defence is.
Add one single option to the game that cannot be dealt with on reaction and you'd open the whole thing up.

This if how cavalry charges in the medieval combat would go.
This is also the reason why being an unmounted knight in plate armour is an advantage. because if you're covered in armour and your horse isn't, they'll just go for your horse

Feints are effective against parry attempts, but not effective at breaking a passive player. You don't have to commit anything if you're just waiting to block, so you can't "fool" a block with a cancelled heavy.

Alright, I think its general consensus that as long as this game has P2P, it will immediatly fail and die in a week.

Yes, this is why we chase after peasants with Navy Seals in today's military.
>what is cost-effectiveness
500 peasants with bows cost less to deploy and lose less upon failure than a handful of knights with armor and kites. Knights guard people and places. The riff-raff clean up other riff-raff. We send the Army to hold and take ground, retard, not special forces. You can draw parallels because resources have always been and always will be scarce.
>>168230341
You're right of course but that specific test is bullshit, those arrows are made from fucking dowel rods and have round heads.
>>168230345
just practise serker is really fun to get good with. Not a lot of good ones around means people arent used to fighting you and he's actually pretty good up to mid/high skill levels. Perfect play might be a clusterfuck in any case since parries are so strong and gbs can be broken easily but at all ranks before that he's fun.
Revenge+Berserk quad kills are 5 times as satisfying as using your trebuchet to do it.

>>168230880
you can play it again in like ten hours, calm down.
>>168230849
kbm i relied mostly on a dodgy ds like playstyle.
>>168230264
I'd like to add that the crossbow was also easily manufactured in masses, not helping plate armor.
Conq and warlord players who use keyboard and mouse, what did you bind full block to? C feels awkward af.
>>168230895
many such cases
>>168230494
no it didn't lol. read some shit nigga
http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/aams/hd_aams.htm
particularly at the part where it says "firearms and plate armor coexisted for more than 300 years"
HOL UP
>tfw classes tomorrow
Wait uh, what is Renown? I'm kinda confuse.
I dunno why but the beta servers are back up. No one playing of course.
>>168222768
I feel that maining is good for two things, learning the ins and outs of a class very intimately. And leveling the character so that it can be pretty and useful in 4s. But I think it's also acceptable when you get frustrated to move onto another class that you're having issue with so that you can learn how and why you are losing and what you can do to get better.
Does anyone know if this helm ornament drops for Warden?
>>168231005
And firearms prevailed over plate mail in the end. Doesn't really prove me wrong.
>>168231069
Experience
>>168230494
Good armor could effectively stop most shots from early firearms, Japanese, European, Chinese - they all had armor that was bullet proof for a few hundred years.
>>168230512
>unblockables
>to get past turtling
confirmed for knowing shit
>>168231071
>Beta servers
It's a P2P game, the only centralized server was the Uplay login server.
>>168230986
Full block almost never works when I want it to. I have no idea how it does that but I'm guessing it's just a glitch. It will go up for a split second or not come out at all.
>>168231006
Yeeep
>>168231123
>various charge moves that can't be parried
yeah, you confirmed for not knowing shit
>>168231038
Oh woe, how sad.
Try studying, working and doing driving lessons at the same time.
>>168231103
"armour and knights ended with the introduction of the firearm" is what you said and it was total bullshit. 300 years is a fucking long introduction. it was a very, very long time before firearms were good enough and widespread enough for them to actually effectively stop people in plate armour
Can you actually play as a nigger Samurai? That's fucking hilarious.
I know absolutely NO faction would have niggers, but Samurai is the funniest by far.
>>168222768
>do you see yourself ever playing more than 2-3 heroes before the DLC comes out?
No.
I don't enjoy:
>conqueror
>warlord
>orochi
>raider
>valkyrie
>lawbringer
>berserker
I somewhat enjoy:
>warden
>kensei
>peacekeeper
I do enjoy
>nobushi
>shugoki
So those are the two classes I'll be playing come release.
>>168217963
but the zone is guarenteed after a GB and heavies are never guaranteed unless you throw someone who is out of stamina (normal throw) and start the heavy as soon as you can
>>168231201
Oh no man, facing those completely normal things that every single western human for the last hundred years has faced is a real drag, shit it must be hard on you!
Does anyone else actually enjoy these history arguments?
>>168231330
Well it does suck shit, just like life. I'm getting bags under my eyes.
>>168222768
i'll likely gravitate towards one or two heroes but i like experiencing everything. i played just about everyone somewhat equally in the open beta
>>168217184
I'm taking him, me and my friend did a coin toss for the last two spots in our knight team, I ended up with the one I really wanted and so did he, it seems everything is in gods hand now.
Deus vult my brothers.
>>168231169
if you meant charge move portion of unblockables just say so in the first place next time around
unblockables in general are unserviceable because if they aren't charge moves they can still be defended against
>>168231332
of course
I don't understand how anyone could not enjoy discussing history and warfare.
>>168222768
There's no real way to counter pick in matches since you can't see what your opponents are playing until the load screen, so... yes, you absolutely should specialize.
>>168231201

not here because they're always unsubstantiated garbage
What's your buddy-cop teamup going to be?
Just you and your best bud, back to back. What classes are you?
I know that in my case I'll be Kensei and he'll be Lawbringer.
>>168231570
>Can't get a job because no car
Have you heard of walking? How about a bike? Or maybe the bus?
>>168231570
>find out a couple weeks ago that you don't have to take driver's ed to get your temps if you're over 18
Why would you need to know how to drive to be allowed to work?
at what time will the game launch?
I'm in Europe, will it be like the start of the betas, so 3pm here?
>>168229476
Siege had p2p on release and swapped to dedicated later.
>>168231746
4AM release in the UK, later as you go further east.
>>168231694
>>168231709
I've applied to a lot of places in my area and almost none of them ever call back at all. I was talking to a friend who's in management at a local chain and he said that they do local DMV checks on people if they don't have good references/credentials. They probably see some gooby 20 year old dude with below average grades and no license and don't even bother.
>>168217731
LAWBRINGER
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R415WZruPdE
>>168231694
Not him but where I live unless you feel like walking 5~ miles on a highway which doesn't accommodate pedestrians or bikes to a fast food job, you need a car.
>>168231605
is this a hypothetical question or are you talking about an actual team with a friend.
hypothetical: Conq and Lawbringer
actual:none of my friends will buy the game ;_;
>>168219867
>>168226728
This is what an effective demoralizing helmet should look like.
Don't give me the "hurr edgy" bullshit because it's what they're supposed to be. You're not gonna scare anyone with a helmet that has mustache in it.
>>168231605
> Tfw none of my friends interested in the game
Just want buds to 2v2 with
>>168231806
And the Division has dedicated now as well.
So, if Ubisoft know what "dedicated servers" mean and have actually implemented them in their games, why the fuck arent they doing that with For Honor? If money is the issue here, they're probably gonna lose more money from people not buying a shitty lag simulator then how much they'd lose paying for some actual fucking servers.
I'm actually mad, because the game is great in every other regard, but they fuck up one thing and of course its something extremely important.
>>168231865
Then do some volunteer work, get good credentials
Don't just sit at home blaming everyone else because YOU are too lazy to improve yourself
Don't just drop a resume off at a desk and leave, go speak to the people in charge and leave a good impression, don't walk in with jeans and a tshirt wear good clothes, shave off your neckwear, do everything you can to look as best as you possibly can because that shit is way more important than most people think
someone make the next thread without discord links
>>168231905
then I guess this is Warden
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0LdIZ8TWYo
>>168232072
Your helm is not practical, though. Also, I don't think helms like >>168226728 and >>168226964 are suppose to demoralize.
I think its time for a new thread lads
>>168232251
How about no. This is Warden, if anything https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9dNrmGD7mU
>>168232127
I actually havent experienced any actual lag in both betas, not even in the 4v4 modes.
The only problem was host migration in 4v4s, 1v1 and 2v2 worked perfectly for me
>>168232127
>I'm actually mad, because the game is great in every other regard, but they fuck up one thing and of course its something extremely important.
don't talk shit, the game had some serious glaring issues in other places, power ups and revives in 4v4 elim, dominion was fucking pointless/boring, anyone who drops is replaced with a full hp bot, list goes on
in the 30ish hours i played, i only encountered one person who was laggy enough that i could tell anything was wrong, and that didn't come anywhere close to ruining the game like all the actual poor design choices
>>168232390
I'm not going there. Can someone make another one?
>>168232421
>one is a guy fighting with a 2handed sword, like warden
>the other is a guy who is literally every archetype available in the game, including casters
i mean, not hating you or anything, but Watchers (even the title is kinda similar to Warden) IMO fit way better
>>168232450
Joined a 4v4 where the lag made all of a wardens attacks nearly unblockable. Left immediately after showing my buddy, who was sitting next to me, how bad the lag was mid-fight.
It seems to only be a problem when laggy people get host or their lag is so bad that any other rational human being wouldn't play (because they skipping would be unbearable or you'd win so often that it got boring).
>>168232072
>DELIBERATELY putting two giant holes in the center of your face
>all those gaps between the upper and lower jaw
>the geometry along the eye sockets is concave INWARDS, so a blade will just slide along it into your eye
>those fucking dents in the sides of the skull
Whatever demoralizing effect this helm would have would be more than compensated for when the enemy is emboldened after killing a guy in plate armor who decided to wear such a retarded piece of gear.
so, is green man gaming legit? getting the game for 32 pounds is far more reasonable than 60 euros but it seems like a deal too good to be true
>>168232127
Point is, montreal knows what they are doing they fixed siege they can fix this game.
there is no reason to engrave your helmet like
>>168232072
you would not spoop anyone and you make yourself more likely to be killed or injured
>>168233850
They're an official Ubisoft retailer, so yes.
will i need to proxy to play the game on uplay faster?
just bought a key off g2a
lets hope I don't get gayed lads
>>168219867
>make them abandon the game out of salt.
But... they already gave their money ? who cares ? good riddance.
>>168220313
It, too, play the Raider. Dig the Sabaton. I usually listen to this and other stuff from Amon Amarth

Educate a dirty open beta pleb, how does the Valkyrie play? She wasn't in the open
