So. This is pretty much "Evolve: 2017 version", right? A multimillion dollar polished turd, microtransactions on a full priced games, etc…

At least you could play Evolve
For Honor has abysmal netcode and requires you to be always online to even play the single player.

No, fuckboy, an accusation like that, you get to elaborate.

I got to try out Steep over the free weekend and saw this abysmal Jewbisoft netcode in action. I just wanted to run the tutorial to check out the gameplay (shouldn't require online) and I must have gotten into, and kicked from, the game at least a dozen times.

Hey there shill. We had shills for Evolve as well. It didn't save the game from being a failure.

It will die really fast unless they do an expansion or dlc soon. They could do sales too but ubisoft rarely does that.

It's even worse than that, user. From what I've read, the game has a severe meta problem where defense is king, meaning you're punished more for acting rather than reacting. Apparently, if it's Peacekeeper v Peacekeeper (the the knight assassin lady), the one who swings first will always lose. The funny thing is that the devs don't really know how to actually deal with this meta, and any changes they're trying to think of for fixing it might actually make things worse. Any person with half a braincell can block, dodge, and parry any attack, so there's now no point to swing unless you have an ability that can guarantee some damage while still being safe.
Nevermind absolute shit connection issues, this game won't survive simply on fundamental game designs.

nah. Not enough porn.

so do you not have a bow? I figure that would be enough to solve what looks like an overpowered counterattack.

I bought this game because every dark souls e-celebrity I know bought it and said its fun.
I did the same and I like the game so far.
Though this game REALLY needs a ranked mode. It's a fighting, goddammit! Let me grind my ELO.

You deserve to be bullied.

I think some characters can get throwable and ranged items after getting enough points in a match, kind of like killstreaks, but they're only available in the 4v4 modes.

kill yourself you brazillian work accident of a street hooker

This is how far Holla Forums has fallen. Retards openly and proudly broadcasting their stupidity for all the world to see.

Fuck's sake, did you at least try out the betas beforehand, or did you seriously just get it because some youtuber told you to?

Hello shill

Good job getting all these suckers

It's too bad, because the actual game mechanics look really fun (I haven't played it myself) but 90% of the rest of the game just looks like shit (even the aesthetics are all grey-washed).

I did some testing for it in a couple of the tech tests, and what I did try I did have some fun with it. The problem is that there just wasn't enough people testing en masse and not enough characters to test out to figure out that, mechanically, it's an incredibly shallow game. Once a shit ton of people played all the characters post launch, then the issues cropped up. Maybe the game might pull a R6 Siege and become somewhat playable later down the road, but probably not because of how niche this game is.

Yeah, that's exactly how I expected the game to end up when I saw the very first gameplay trailers

Not a real loss though, we've got loads of decent games these days

shame, there were some aspects of it that were kind of fun, but not fun enough to actually buy it

LMAO


I got one key, but was busy wageslaving on business trip at the moment. I played on second beta for a couple of hours, though it's not enough to form an opinion.
I'm not watching youtube much, but yeah, why not? I tend to trust people with similar taste. I bought other games that I haven't even tested just because "some youtube dude told me to". Examples would be Dark Maus, Salt and Sanctuary and Hyper Light Drifter.


There's no good porn pics (yet).

Evolve was not fun because it was essentiually a game of catch where you never got to fight and locked a fuckton of its content.
In For Honor you fight all the fucking time, and the fighting is well realised. Players claim a class is OP every other day, and each time it's a different class. First Orochi, then Berserker, then something else. The skill floor for some characters is significantly higher, but even the simple characters have hidden moves.
The game does have glaring problems though. The way you get better gear and more damage by leveling is complete garbage, fighting against a high-level fuck is unbalanced. Netcode is SHIT.
They will rejuvenate with the next dlc that adds 3 fighters or some other gay shit. I hear a Ninja and a roman Legionnaire are in, but who the fuck knows.
Overall For Honor is like a less fun grindy Nidgogg, but it's still pretty enjoyable. Definitely not a blunder like Evolve.

Have it then, by our favorite artist.

Well if you played it, I can't fault you for getting it then. I just fucking hate it when people will just throw money at something simply because someone said to do so instead of taking the time to maybe to do research on their own. I've seen anons here do that and even talk shit about a game when they clearly are just spouting nonsense.

With that said, fuck Mass Effect Andromeda. That game is a dumpster fire waiting to ignite, and I can't wait to see people try and defend that garbage.

I can confirm all that from research. Apparently when gear stats are on, and someone has highest gear tier, they get revenge from like 2 hits and then can just kill you in roughly 3. That's just fucking stupid design. Gear should have never been allowed to be that powerful.

The no porn argument kind of died after stillborn desperate excuse to bring attention to their shit

...

Eugh. His artwork is fucking awful. Boobs don't work like that, he also draws them opposite to each other for some reason. He even added chromatic aberration because he's retarded.

Who came on her breasts? Who did that?

Can't tell if shadman or a cheap knockoff.

This is one of the most low effort OPs I've seen in a while

Image search comes back as him. I can always tell it's him by the way he draws faces for some reason.

I've heard someone describe it as this somewhere: The gameplay is great, everything else (the netcode, the menu design, the matchmaking, etc) is shit.

It's aggrevating because there is a legitimately fun game there, but because Ubisoft is incompetent, it hasn't risen to it's potential. The amount of dropped games alone is ridiculous.

It needs a lot of fixing if it wants to be successful, but I do have a feeling that if Ubi treats it well, it could be a good game.

Not with p2p multi

I did.

Yup. If they somehow undo that and actually get some servers, a lot more people would be playing it and not dropping it

Sounds like all the connection issues are because of the p2p structure they have, shit like when one person drops for whatever reason, whether they rage out or lose connection, there's a chance it cascades across every person, meaning one by one they lose connection while the game tries to reconnect. And this is if you're lucky to even get into a game in the first place.

If the host has problems then it's fucked.

Dark souls multi was notorious for this shit, but it was okay because it was an aspect of the game not the whole thing.
This game ONLY has multiplayer so yeah.

Nigga I've hosted p2p before with great connection and the shit is still fucked, its even worse hosting as you seem to be fine but niggas are teleporting around everywhere.

The worst shit
I remember once playing Castle Crashers and my friend got to another level instead og going with us, i amazingly bad.

According to Ubi, this was supposedly a new system of p2p where technically they're the ones who are hosts and everyone connects to everyone, meaning there's no host advantage. The problem is where one person drops and then everyone has to reconfigure and reconnect so the game can continue as if that person who dropped was the host. Think of it now as everyone is the host at the same time, so when one drops, everyone has to stop and wait for the game to get its shit together.
Now add in the problem where someone's game fails because it can't reconnect properly, causing the game to reconnect again to everyone, causing someone's game to fail because it can't reconnect properly, causing the game to reconnect again to everyone, causing someone's game to fail etc. etc. etc.

Yeah I was listening to their psedo-science shit.
After a explanation of new technology contains a certain ratio of buzzwords I just view it as bullshit.

Its served me well, its how I avoided the Cloud, new the F-35 was bullshit and avoid games with "groundbreaking technology"

For You has singleplayer?

Yeah, but it wasn't very memorable.

Think of it as a four or five hour tutorial

It's hard to even call it new technology when it still behaves exactly like the old technology.
I would say that the only game that I thought had something like that was Shadow of Mordor and their nemesis system. Sure, the game is fucking easy, but I enjoyed the hell out of it because of how overpowered you can get once you unlock higher tier abilities. I like games like that where you can just start laying waste to large groups, kind of like the original Prototype. It's why I'm optimistic about Shadow of War. I never bothered with the dlc of the first game, and I certainly won't bother with it again for this one, but I'm just curious to see more of what they're doing with the nemesis system and how they're expanding it.


Just a bunch of braindead AI that you don't need to even fight unless the game specifically tells you that you have to kill enemies. You could actually run past certain areas with enemies until you hit a cutscene which despawns everything you ran past.

For what purpose?

???

Why not just make it another man then?

My time has come

Bushido Blade >>>>> For Honor

Politics.

Like I said already
What I was referring to was things that could take out multiple enemies at once, unlimited executions for 20 seconds, things like that.

what are you, gay?

I'd be so fucking mad if I had spent money on this game. Luckily, I got it for free. As a F2P game it's pretty solid, but holy shit $60 USD for this shit would be a fucking scam. There's, what, five game modes in total, most of which are totally unplayable, and the duel mode is kind of okay but filled with horrendously designed maps?

Ubisoft clearly had no future plans for this shit. It was just another sloppy AAA release with a vaguely interesting premise to tide them over for Q1 2017 until Wildlands and Steep came out.

Also remember all of the shills that hopped in here when it released.. For Honor really is evolve 2.0.

Isn't the season pass another $40?

Ubisoft is in a strange spot right now because the three biggest titles they had going for them are absolute disasters right now with no clear end in sight. They can't afford to let this go on.

Obviously they need more diversity.

Also still no porn? Absolutely disgusting.

You dont like ??????????

i think i can honestly say i didn't see a single person during the betas or even right post-launch who said anything more positive than "it's a good idea sunk by ubisoft's normal shit"

…or they could just get rid of the gooks

Seriously Ubisoft should add dedicated servers and get rid of the RNG system, that shit is unplayable.


If a character has a horse butthole then it's shadman.

This has pretty much been the general sentiment, even in the shilled generals made by the gay IRCfag. Even when people were actively talking about the game you couldn't have a greentext or two pass without someone slapping on the disclaimer of the game being a steaming pile.

At first I was hoping to see a price cut and slow support like Siege's launch but holy fuck they're just squandering every chance they've had with this game.

Id say its not a polished turd but a shat on diamond.
The gameplay is a good fighting game from an unfamilliar angle.
Everything around the core gameplay tho is pure garbage from glorious peer to peer technology to paid hats and constant crashes.

I know it's bait but I'm feeding you because you deserve it for this lazy yet very efficient message.
I hope you die.

Even if it's bait, user deserves to get gangraped by 30 guys for shilling this sjw-pandering, denuvo-infested, piss-awful shit game.

I don't know user. In SFIII you can parry everything, and can tech throws. You can basically never be hit by anything if you are good enough, and people praise that game. Maybe, they should add more stamina consumption while defending, or "just blocks" being much better than blocks. It is possible.

You can also data mine the files for these guys

Also if ubisoft can fix the fucking servers its a good game I love 3D fighters

I knew all the way back in beta the 4v4 modes were a cluster fuck but they level your characters the most

love these edits

Some characters have unblockables but are easily parried and most people already got counter guard break down


Remember how Twinswords knight has the "Shields arent for pussies" well thats For Honor currently 2 of the only character that use shields are the best heroes in the game atm. The defense meta is alot worse than you think the game has feints but sometimes you have matches where literally people wait for you to make a move its even worse since my main the kensei entire thing is essentially "feinting the class"

Their is actually a "chip damage" mechanic in the game but its so small you barely notice it I feel like they should


I see For Honor doing this in order for it to survive

Ubisoft should be fire bombed for wasting this premise I hope to god they get their shot together so I can get this shit on sale.

I have a lot of time in this game and it's definitely got some serious problems but I'm going to shill anyway because I'll be damned if the gameplay (when it's running smoothly) isn't a fucking blast.

1. Connection issues. Sometimes when the host leaves the game drops. This happens to me maybe 1/10 games. Used to be more common. It's really annoying but the games are short and it's really just a minor inconvenience.

2. Balance. This is to be expected for a new fighting game but there are some pretty annoying imbalances that can be really frustrating at a high level of play. Most of them right now are some obscure bugs that players have figured out. I fully expect this will improve and the dev team has already acknowledged and promised to address many of the issues the community has brought up.

However, the game is just really fun in my opinion. I love melee combat games and there's lots of intense duels and room for skill to shine. The aesthetics are meh in my opinion but the gameplay and mechanics are super fun and I think this game could be a real diamond in the rough if the devs put in the proper work to improve on the issues the community has raised.

Honestly, most people who I've played with who bash the game just join in, get their ass kicked, then resort to whatever canned criticism they heard on *chan or reddit. I think if you go into the game willing to accept the learning curve and git gud then it's hard not to enjoy this game if you like melee combat.

They cant let it go since they also promised free DLC so they are basically stuck with it


Is it even possible to change P2P to dedicated?

As someone with 100+ hours in the game I have to say you're really off here.
Quite the opposite. The PK is by far the hardest class to defend against and it is impossible to reaction-parry her light attacks. In PK vs PK the more aggressive player typically wins.
Half true. The real problem is that two of the classes currently have such strong defense that they can turtle up and be extremely difficult to punish. This wouldn't be such a huge issue since there are lots of options to force a move out of a defensive player to open them up EXCEPT these two classes also have incredibly effective offensive options that prevent you from having enough time to really fake them out.
Totally false. Just blocking PK light attacks is challenging, let alone parrying. Parrying requires you to hit the heavy attack button as you block so if your opponent feints an attack and you try to parry it you will swing a heavy and if you don't cancel it right away they will parry the heavy they just baited out and push your shit in. Alternatively, they could guard break while you go to cancel your baited heavy and punish you that way so there are lots of ways to get put in a 50/50 situation.
In my opinion the core mechanics are really solid and all that needs to be done is to bring some of the lower tier classes up by giving them better options to deal with a defensive player.

Are you gay?
Cute girls in cool armor is a national treasure, but the female options in for honor are just dudes with high pitched voices

Yeah those are two of the DLC characters that were announced before the game came out

I'm holding out hope that the centurion not holding any weapons means it's a fist fighter and not just that they didn't model the weapons yet

93 hours in it, a good bit of fun with knights, vikings, and samurais. There are a lot of comparisons to that of fighting games which are pretty apt but it brings to mind a much more advanced mountain blade.

It's as pretty and fluid as you'd expect a triple A title and as sparse on content too. Core gameplay at low level is fun but the poor balance shows itself after you've settled in but it hasn't put me off the game as a whole. It's worth looking at if you find it on sale and did not care for deadliest warrior.

If ubi ever puts the game on sale it'll go for like 40-50 bux, so that's kind of misleading

I don't buy ubisoft games often so I wasn't aware. That is kind of shitty though.

That's not even a ubi thing, that's pretty consistent across AAA games

You will never own any CoD on Steam for under 10 bucks and that includes shit over a decade old, what the fuck

Ubisoft should be putting the game up for $15 in like 6 months or so

starter edition is retarded though

The starter edition is not worth it at all. The grind for 12.5k renown is horrific.

Fun game with good mechanics, but on the actual publishing side there's so much shit tacked on (Uplay, microtransactions, etc) that it's hard to ignore.

But where is the huge monster built for consensual intercourse in the missionary position for the sole purpose of reproduction?

ofc it's shit

I honestly doubt we will get dedicated servers

How can they fucking fix P2P for 4v4

I understand the P2P shit when it comes to duels (not 4v4), but WHY THE FUCK do the different characters have different stance switch times? ALSO 14 fucking frames of input lag?

I have serious doubt that UBI will give enough of a shit about these issues, but I hope they prove me wrong.

...

Serious answer? No.
No Honor is a critical and commercial success. Even if its player base drops to 0 right now, ubishit already made huge profits from it as well as made it that every normalfag and their grandma is aware that it exists.

Evolve on the other hand is a complete, 100% failure, barely anybody even knows about it, and most of those who do completely forgot it.
So yeah, they're both shit but their stories are nothing alike.

Evolve felt like a single gamemode for a full game but sold at the price of a full game, For Honor is last I checked at least a complete game, a completely shit looking game but eh.

user you are dumb

Evolve (despite having skewed number from a free weekend) sold really well on release, much better than For Honor, which had mediocre sales.

You're the dumb one lad, only Steam numbers don't mean anything

They're more than enough to gauge general sales.
For Honor wasn't on any "best selling" lists for any countries as far as I'm aware, so these numbers are most likely right for all platforms.

Here's your reply, faggot.

No, user, it's just that you've got shit taste.

Your headcanon doesn't make the girls under that armor any less manly

But how many would be the uplay only buyers ?

Please go

Wow! That's really surprising!

Mad that I'm not showing your favorite word the proper respect?
>>>/tumblr/

None?

There could be another 400 000 users on uplay. Giving them best possible estimation.
But still the numbers are ridiculously low compared to evolve. How did evolve get that many people to buy it ? It's amazing. I thought for honor was much bigger.

Nobody uses Uplay by itself.
That's just Ubishit propaganda to justify a service nobody wants to their investors.

The numbers for Evolve that are there now include F2P players. All you need to do is add it to your library for free and you count as a "sale". Can't find any numbers on how many actually bought it.

user said "on release", Evolve also costed $60 on release.

When a lot of people played the open beta it turned them off


People were expecting Chivalry not a fighting game

But the numbers were not on release. They were current numbers. I have yet to see release sales. Only number I could find were on (((wikipedia))) and were inly units shipped, not sold.

According to Steamspy, the number of owners it had on steam about 2 months after release is around 300k.
The game was also released on PS4 and Xbone, but I don't know the numbers for thoset.

Doesn't Stillborn count?

Cool. Don't really know how to use Steamspy very well, and couldn't be assed to right now. Shows that Evolve didn't sell too well on PC at least then. Only really went nuclear on PC when it went f2p, and still had no players.

Yeah that's pretty much it.
The game didn't even get past 500k owners before the end of 2015.
The site says it had about 470k owners on December 2015, but that number could be incorrect as it had a free weekend at the start of September.

Evolve is a good game, gamers are just insufferable little faggots and pussies, they avoid real life like the plague, and its responsibilities.

So when you get introduced to a game where you're the only monster it suddenly puts the coward in an uncomfortable stop.
Suddenly losing is their fault, and they can't blame anyone else for it.

There is nothing fatass gaming losers hate more than personal responsibility.
Evolves biggest complaint when it launched was "waaaah why 1 monster on the team waaah!! muh co-op, I don't want to be alone! I want to be carried like a faggot!"

Evolve accidentally gave cowards FGC stage fright without even being a fg.. Go on an pretend you're pissy tho because you had to play a few hours to paint your dino red or green.

It doesn't have anywhere near as much porn

You mean was
Was a good game
Then they changed it to be more about arena fighting than about hunting

This will sound retarded but For Honor feels like some weird soul calibur spin off to me.

Soul Edge gamemode when?

I'm not surprised.

Granted, it can be a fun game to play but it needs serious fixing

Get some actual fucking servers instead of it being solely p2p, balance things so you can't instantly go revenge after you get hit twice, and for fucks sake do something about unblockable spam.

There's literally nothing wrong with the 1v1 mode

It might get a little bump this month, since it's (((free))) on Xbox One.

When I see For Honor the only thing that comes to mind is that we'll never get a proper next gen sequel of pic related

Uplay is maybe 5% of the steam numbers. Exclusively people who hate Steam but have nothing against Uplay.

When I see For Honor I immediately close the thread because I think it's supposed to be "For Honour", some medieval knights RTS shit.

okay so right now its like 6k players on steam

Uplay would either be 8k or 11k

Source on this?

The game was cheaper like going for $40 on G2A, and CDkeys most of the reseller sites use uplay keys

Yes.

Anyone who bought this shit shouldn't be alllwed to post.
This is what happens when we have cancerous generals run wild in a fucking hugbox ala /vg/.
In this case Siege.

Quads

Who are you getting angry at, you fucking retard?

It was shilled almost as hard as evolve.

Kill yourself you fucking nigger

But I didn't buy for honor
And evolve is fucking free to play now
Do you have down syndome?

It's one of the only generals where people discuss the game, and we don't have any gays or ERPing fags who shit the threads up. And Siege generals produce more OC than the drawthreads too.

decapitate yourself

Generals are always cancer for the exact reasons that
1. The OP doesn't start discussion, just starts a generic thread about [Thing]. Only leading people there to the thread and not into actual discussion. This creates the perfect conditions to breed cancer.
2. The thread will be made simply for the sake of the thread being made, not because there is any actual interest in the game other than the OP. Creating an endless loop of cancer being created due to 1.

Anyone defending general threads don't belong on imageboards. As people who belong on imageboards understand intrinsically that any thread about [Topic] means that you can contribute thread to your own questions pertaining to the realm of the topic. Or in short: Any normal thread starting discussion essentially becomes a general thread, but without all the cancerous elements of a general thread.

So kill yourself you reddit piece of shit. You are the reason imageboards die.

If you hate generals so much why are you here? Half the board is generals. Also generals are fine if interest in the game is still good, and they're made so people don't have to start a whole new thread to talk about some small aspect of the game. Take any post in any general, would it make a good OP? No? That's why the general is made faggot.

So basically you're behaving exactly like homosexuals, who are a blight on society. Proving that you are pure cancer.

That's what he was getting at, user: Generals exist independently of any board interest in the game itself. The next thread being made is made to continue a cycle, not to continue a discussion; just look at the life of Overwatch and Undertale generals to see what happens when a general becomes completely divorced from any genuine interest- Porn dumps, cancerous name/avatarfags, etc.

God damn it has already started, fucking newfags.

Anyone should remember the generals on cuckchan. I saw a LoL general once as well. Holy fuck.

No.


I'm only defending siege generals, most of the others can go fuck themselves and you are right about.


I'm not wrong, there's probably about 10 generals up right now. The GG threads, the switch cyclical, the planetside 2 thread, the (insert MMO here) generals, etc.

Catalog has more than one page newfag

What argument? The only argument to find other than "WE'RE TOO BIG TO KILL, JUST LEAVE IF YOU DON'T LIKE GAY MARRIAGE AND ADOPTION" is
And that's fucking retarded and you don't deserve to be anywhere near an imageboard when you post something like think that.

Look there you go again bringing more politics into it in opes of stirring shit up. And my argument wasn't that it's hard to make a thread, but that most questions or topics in generals aren't deserving of a thread, which you seem to care a lot about.

Kill yourself redditor.

So you wouldn't mind if we had five different threads about one game just because the OP is different?

The Jew would be utterly oblivious to what had happened the day before, and he would start once again by repeating his former absurdities, as if nothing had happened. Should you become indignant and remind him of yesterday's defeat, he pretended astonishment and could not remember anything, except that on the previous day he had proved that his statements were correct. Sometimes I was dumbfounded. I do not know what amazed me the more – the abundance of their verbiage or the artful way in which they dressed up their falsehoods.

Your ebin jew copypasta isn't an argument, and if you mean that my question was answered when you said
That is why most generals have questions in the OP to spur discussion.

>THATS WHY (very few) GENERALS ASK GENERIC QUESTIONS THAT LEAD TO COPY PASTE REPLIES!
Proving me right. One post at a time.

Citation needed. And also in your perfect world what would be the difference between a good and bad "general"? A question in the OP and the word general?

You made the statement that they ask questions. You back up your argument or don't. Burden of proof is on you. Link to all the generals here and also figure out what percentage of them actually ask a question in the first place, homosexual jew.

Well neither of us are gonna take time out of our day to go count how many generals ask questions so I guess we'll never know.
So it is just a question and the word general, glad we sorted that out, thanks user.

You both need to be banned for being humungous faggots

What the fuck Holla Forums

You faggots always turn threads for the worse for no fucking reason

I like

>Turns out game is fun
That's where I'm at right now. Fun game, not enough content for that much money, especially because of microtransaction bullshit. Seriously what the fuck is that?

This person was an ERPer in the For Honor general

I've heard first hand legit autist screeching caused by the netcode of the game.
