Me and my friend just quit For Honour the other day. Already my life has improved

>>747303
I'm strongly considering that. I got the "Battlepass" this time around because my girlfriend enjoys the game, but now I'm literally just getting on to put some work in on that, and even my girlfriend has expressed the fact that when we get on to play it just feels like a chore now. I git on last night to finish up the event pass and immediately quit when I was done with that.

the game is not that bad it just didn't improve. please remember unlock tech/stats through gear/peer to peer.
people still played the game back then but i don't know why. this game is somehow still kicking after that shit, i guess thank the microtransactions lol. honestly how could the game be improved at this point, it peaked after breach.

>>782421
No doubt the game improved tremendously gameplay-wise (the reasons you mentioned being some prime examples). His post is mostly complaining about the lore/art direction and I agree with him and probably half his points. I remember being disappointed when I learned Shinobi could teleport because muh gritty pseudo-historic setting, and then doubly disappointed when they abandoned the "faceless elite soldiers" gimmick for named hero characters from the campaign.

For Honor is a way, way better game than it was in 2017 but it's lost a good amount of the 2017 soul chasing new content of the week, running out of ideas, and just churning out meme-content. Also the post-marching fire team clearly doesn't give a shit about the OG setting--not that there was much there to begin with, to be fair, but they got pretty fucking goofy with it. Magic WMD draconite rocks, forest shamans and kappas and spider demons and shit. It's a far cry from the launch setting.

It's like somebody wished for a more competent gameplay-dev team and the monkey's paw curled to fuck over the art design and setting.

>>782427
>His post is mostly complaining about the lore/art direction
This, exactly. I can wholly acknowledge that For Honor is tech-wise in a considerably better spot than it was before I left. But being the RPing fag that I am, I just can't totally get behind the state of its world like I used to be able to.
Hell, Tiandi and Zhanhu are functionally and aesthetically two of my favorite characters, but their existence in this game is symptomatic of a very wide stretch away from the simple Red vs Yellow vs Green story I fell in love with.
>>782421
>honestly how could the game be improved at this point
For starters, it could stop trying to form itself into Siege but with swords and fall back onto its roots. Close up all these stupid helmets and let everybody be a faceless mook again. Leave this Heathmoor "let's all be friends noble warriors :^)" bullshit in the dust and have everybody kill each other. That's what would bring me back, at least, and I know I'm not the only one who shares this sentiment.
and give gladiator another armor set holy shit please

>conq's fashion is still trash, BP's shield and sword are comically big for one handers
At least let me get a small round shield or a big square one, not this big triangle. D

Speaking of BP, did they add any "holy" looking armors? I switched platforms recently so I'll have to grind his levels again to see what's new. I wish they would rework him so his offense is no longer just bash into light.

Jorm's rework is pretty strong. Damage is very high and the new chain zone attack is really fun to use. Gonna miss the neutral bash though.

>>782745
It truly was a strange choice to add faces. They had a great thing going with all the nameless faceless execution bait badasses at the start.

At this point I think they should go all in on the fashion autism. It’s a crime that they put out different chromas worth 10,000 in game currency and there’s only one faction that gets to use them properly

how good is aramusha? i just got the game i like musashi miyamoto

>>788088
Fantastic duelist and solid at team modes. Very difficult to kill if you know what you're doing. Worth picking up for sure. Honestly though, if you're brand new, tier lists are not going to be super relevant to you for a while. If Ara ends up not clicking with you just pick up somebody else you think looks cool.

Just play what you want regardless of character strength. Even the previously worst character in the game, Nuxia, was passable because she was so seldomly played that most people had no idea what the fuck to do against her.

You could always just lock on to do your wide attacks, you never once had to look at a minion kill animation if you didn't want to.
Hell, some characters STILL have to lock on because their unlocked attacks are from the top.
It was "We didn't want to animate them" in its entirety. "They weren't as good for clearing" was just another """bonus""" thing they mentioned to try to make people less mad.

I abandoned this game not long before Medjay came out, how's the state of things these days?

>>808257
No significant shakeups since Medjay--nothing on the scale of removing option selects or the CCU. Quality of life improvements for a bunch of characters. Reworks are mostly good--generally targeting characters that were lower on the tier list and moving them up. New hero announcement next week I think? New hero announcement not this Thursday, but the one after. Probably pretty quiet until then.

>>808264
>Quality of life improvements for a bunch of characters.
Specifically, it's worth pointing out that every character that didn't have a dodge attack before has one now.

>>808257

there are certain things about post launch FH that are more "soulful", but despite all its problems the game as it is now is waaaay better
still unique 1-of-a-kind, third-person, medieval fantasy fighting game

the viking spear lady just got a really good (basically overpowered) rework so she's very viable and easy to pick up
the japanese spear lady is nuanced and skillful, though as characters go kind of mediocre

pick whatever character you think looks the coolest and go with that

>>818958
kind of the same. I did think Pirate would be cool (I was wrong), Medjay is at least interesting and probably one of the few Hybrids who really earns it. He'd be better with some adjusted animations and gameplay. Also genderunlocked but that's kind of beating a dead horse. I do hope that for all the crazy kicks Afeera can do will mean she can have Haymaker as one of her feat options in tier 2. I don't care if it's not the most practical choice, I love the idea of kicking someone so hard it had a chance to kill them.

As a side note, which knights do you feel are wasted slots and what could replace them? I mean, off the top of my head, Warmonger is a big one since she really should have just been some Warden move tweaks and new armor sets (maybe make an Astrea hero skin later). Gryphon kind of another, but it's more because he probably should have been a viking given his base gear.

>>819073
NTA but if Glad/Cent were released today they would probably be a better fit in the Outlanders. Cool heroes but they kind of sit outside the aesthetic of the Knights

In retrospect, it's kind of funny how fucking fast they completely gave up on trying to make diverse characters within the framework of Knights Viking Samurai and just started rehashing characters, reusing weapons and now turning the game into Deadliest Warrior

Anybody else misses old Conq? Didn't like how people turtled with him so I understand the changes, but I'm disappointed with the rest of the moveset change as it loses personality? You didn't have feints but had unique soft-feints which fitted chain weapons for me.

Is it? The new "faction" of characters that don't fit into that framework are all the most requested characters from the fanbase. Pirate, Egyptian, and some sort of Saracen.
I would argue that if these were the first characters to be released the game might have maintained it's initial popularity even longer.

>>819281
You've got to remember when they came out they were really trying to make the faction war work.

>>823393
There was literally no difference between Conqd faints and anyone else's. You don't get to stop a flail just because you stopped swinging it a second earlier than someone swinging a sword did.
Old Conq didn't have a fucking movement. They had shield bash. That was literally it. They didn't have personality, their personality was shield bash. They literally didn't have a single other usable attack for years.
The only cool thing about old conq was that you could parry dodge attacks after shield bashing which was the hypest shit despite being completely broken.

>>824164
*bashes you*

>>824164
I agree that Conq's design was historically trash but it's worth noting that, while his offense was essentially limited to bash > light, he had a shitload of defensive tools. He had mulitple option selects for just about any kind of offense. His zone alone countered a ton of offense. The result was a character that was frustratingly difficult to kill but at the same time did piss-poor damage, effectively having to kill you with light attacks over the course of several stamina bars. Every single fight with old Conq lasted an eternity for this reason. Either you killed him after successfully penetrating his ridiculous defense enough times, or he killed you after landing a thousand fucking bash-lights. In Dominion this essentially meant that every fight involving a Conq was just stalling until team mates arrived. Horrible character. Much better now. idgaf about "character identity" when your identity is awful.

Afeera can infinite opponents if she can wall them once

>>824751
The directional attack means it kind of has to be into a corner and not just a wall, otherwise you will slap them away from the wall in like 2 hits

Nuxia bros, we're the real winners here.

>>824948
>>824995
As someone that spammed heavies with Nuxia I always liked her and constantly caught people. I just don't really keep grinding characters after I get their optimal gear and desired fashion.

>Didn't play that much after Medjay because I didn't like him that much
>didn't realize that all the Egyptian weapons were tied to that battle pass or something
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK I CAN NEVER GET THEM NOW

>>825184
Nuxia is garbo but her saving grace is that occasionally you'll kill a guy because he keeps thinking you're going to trap and you heavy him five times in a row and he eats every fucking one.

>>748014
>do you think a poor kit (Nuxia/Jorm) can be salvaged in 4’s with busted perks?
Sure, that was my favorite character's identity back in the day, could pressure multiple zones without ever going there, break up fights and the secondary set of perks was really cool for just letting you do dumb shit and not get punished for it.
>what do you miss most about the old game before CCU?
I miss reaction parrying lights and deleting half of someone's health bar. I miss occasionally letting a raw top heavy fly. I miss all characters having understandable and logical animations to the point I was able to play without markers when not sweating too much. I miss minion clearing animations. I know the gameplay was shit and I was clearly part of the problem (being a Rep 70 Lawbringer), but it just felt different. I sort of miss the old Highlander-Lawbringer /fhg/ rivalry retardation.
All in all I miss playing For Honor. I sometimes want to install it again but I know it isn't the game I fell in love with and I'm afraid of ruining the memories I had.

>>825208
Also I miss the "soon" poster. Shame he never got what he wanted.

Afeera is a trash ganker. Which is to say, she's trash.

>>824948

Some characters have mismatched animations on some attacks, how is this even allowed?

>>824826
not turning the game on until then, this shit is mad gay

she was actually fun to fight against too for the 1 day before people figured her infinite out

Damn, people are still playing this shit? I remember playing for a couple months when it just came out, won a local 1v1 tourny, made my money back, also won a 2v2 tourny but the organisers never paid out. Mained warden but played warlord in the tournies because it was so unbelievably OP on launch

I'd be okay with hito being removed if the samurai got a new heavy hero. Sort of the same with kyoshin except make it a vanguard and distribute kyoshin's fashion and some of their moves across ara, roach, and kensei.

Heroes that should be deleted because they are just terrible designed, a wasted slot or don't belong in the game.

Conqueror
Warmonger
Gryphon
Jorm
Hitokiri
Shinobi
The Wulin
Pirate
Medjay

On top of that any modern rework that's just speending up shit and adding garbage animations should be deleted.

Funny to see they finally gave up trying to shill competitive dominion after seeing how utterly garbage their balance is to the point they just gave up on trying to make 4v4s balanced with hitstun and feats.

Why does everyone always talk about how bad Nuxia is when those three are somehow even worse?

>>833792
I would argue that the only reason Nuxia isn't the absolute rock bottom, is she is played so little that a huge portion of the playerbase doesn't actually know anything about her kit.
If a nuxia player plays 3 matches theres probably a good chance they'll encounter one (1) person who actually knows how her traps work.

If people actually wanted to play a chinese ballerina then her winrate would probably be at the very bottom

>>824948
I've been getting into this game lately. As I've started to actually learn what different characters do I have been astounded by all the shit Jiang Jun is allowed to get away with in his kit.
>Dodge attacks where he can change the direction of the dodge attack mid attack.
>Neutral bash with no GB vulnerability in recovery because he can attack out of the recovery.
>Hyperarmor on heavy openers.
>Can stance out of every recovery, including the aforementioned dodge attacks. (except his bash and unblockable zone)
>Can string his unblockable heavy and his unblockable zone together to effectively have an infinite unblockable chain.
>Hitboxes so large that it doesn't even matter that he lacks an undodgeable.
>Unblockable sprint attack with two swift attacks so you can't roll away from it and have to lock in and parry it.
>140 health
>Insane stamina recovery because of his stance.
>If enemy is close to and in front of a wall he gets a heavy punish and stamina damage off a heavy parry.
And that's not even mentioning how all this synergizes in a team fight. Why the hell did they make him so ridiculous?
I know he's basically supposed to be Guan Yu, so he's just the Chinese god of war, but really???
Feels like they were pandering to China or something by making him the absolute undeniable best, even after a history of nerfs and adjustments.

What the fuck.

Centurion, Gladiator, Shaman an Highlander should be moved to Outladners, Griffin an Warmonger should be deleted.

>>834409
>Highlander moved to outlanders
If this comes accompanied with a full rework and 4 highlander-exclusive feats then you got yourself a deal.

>>834837
I mean he's got Champion's aura and Spear Storm. Not sure if either is still exclusive though. Also seems weird spear storm isn't the Viking Siege feat instead of Fire Flask.

>>835144
Spear Storm is still exclusive, though Gryphon stole Champion's Aura
But I was thinking more along the lines of medjay's feat lineup where everything is dependent on the stance you're in
Highlander already has different activation times and recovery times for feats based on stance so why not just go all the way

>>835467
I'd welcome new reworks just coming with 4 unique feats and no other options. Swappable feats don't add much to the game, and newer heroes usually use most if not all of their uniques anyway. Easier to balance, adds more of that "character identity" everyone's always on about. I'd just as soon get rid of the generic feats entirely (or move them to particular heroes as uniques).

>>834119
yeah, JJ has always been a very good character. The only reason you don't see him often is because he's a chink. You can feint the second sprint attack too by the way

>>748458
Its genuinely impresive how they made the most tilting multiplayer game in existance. Ive raged more in the 100 hours i put into it than probably all other games combined. Cant understand why anyone still plays this shit. Its like they made a good combat system and decided to let 1/3rd of the characters fuck it in the ass.

>>836536
I remember making an almost identical post to yours many hundreds of hours ago
>ok so attacks have a startup, a damage period/moment, and a recovery

just beyond retarded misunderstanding of their own fundamental mechanics and core balance

the only thing that keeps me invested is how fun (albeit strained in the current year) Highlander's kit is and that epic gallowglass nordic-gaelic fashion
I have like 800 hours in the game and 760 of them are spent on Highlander

The small difference in win rate doesn't matter much, "pros" consider at least Warden and Cent to be just as trash as Nuxia in Dominion.

pros don't fucking matter
how easy something is to initiate vs how difficult it is to avoid/counter in pubs is all the matters
which is why Hitokiri mashing timed heavies and bashes is S tier in pubs even though actually top tier players can deal with her

Okay sheep

Is it me or is Afeera just the most retardedly unfair busted hero they put up since release shaman. It feels like there's just fucking nothing you can do if she gets any kind of combo going.

anyone have an understanding of how 4v4’s MMR works? I’ve got a 60-ish% WR but it’s on a super low total rep account so most of the people I play kinda suck

>>840287
She has a lot of problems.

>The infinite bash > heavy against walls allowing her to unload her whole stamina bar on you after a wallsplat
>Fiddly rules/timings for when you're allowed to dodge the chain kick; sometimes it's impossible to dodge (e.g. if you block her running attack she will land the chain kick, there's nothing you can do)
>Tier 1 feat confirms Tier 3 feat confirms heavy for 77 damage
>The heavy wallsplat > heavy damage is just really fucking high. All of her bashes threaten (I don't recall off the top of my head but around) 53 damage any time you're near a wall AND if she gets you, you're immediately back into the same mixup threatening that damage again. Fighting her in a hallway is fucking anxiety inducing and she can nuke your healthbar in seconds.

They fixed the infinite. I have to imagine the confirmed chain kick stuff isn't intended, so I'm guessing that'll be fixed soon. As far as the tier 1 confirming the tier 3 and the high damage on the wallsplat heavy, I don't know. I think the feats shouldn't confirm and I think the damage on the left finisher heavy needs to come down, but we'll see if Ubisoft agrees.

To answer your question though, no she isn't. The most unfairly busted hero release in For Honor's history was Warmonger, who was fucking obscene for like a full week. Her t1 had a much shorter cooldown (I wanna say it was 45 seconds?), a much longer duration, and triggered off ~minions~, meaning that you basically could not engage her in the minion lane. If she landed one hit on you, you and all of your minions would immediately die, nuking each other for shitloads of damage and conveniently also clearing minion lane for her. Her t4 had a significantly shorter cooldown as well. Her t1 was basically always available, making ganking impossible. Games essentially came down to who had more Warmongers. She was pure cancer.

>>840645
Ubi confirmed at some point that rep doesn't matter at all (at release it was purely based on rep, which was retarded, and eventually they changed it). If I had to guess I'd say it's pure W/L but afaik Ubi's never talked any more about it than that.

>>840660
I guess even if it is totally W/L low rep lends itself to a higher WR than is necessarily true for a given player. I know I’m not great but the guys I’m playing range from dogshit to slightly better than me

>>840657
this makes me sad I was taking a break when Warmommy was released. I was there for OG Cent and Shaman, feels bad not to have seen a fuckup that bad in person

The number one thing this game needs is more side dash heavies and lights and probably quicker zone attacks that are unblockable. Probably give bleed and deflects to everyone too………

I'll say no move that pins you down should guarantee a heavy. It's pretty much an insta kill in any gank considering ganking is already braindead easy and revenge is useless.

>>860545
Pin down moves like Centurion's are good since its a charged bash. But cancer like Shaolin's or Valk's sweep are lazy and too easy to access, thus cancer to fight against in a gank.

The nigga isn't weak by any means but he's boring s fuck when compared to other dual stance heros. What I want from him is:
Holding down light/heavy for 0.5 seconds changes stance mid-chain like Highlander/Shaolin, but unlike them the stance is permanent unless changed again.
If the stance is changed mid-chain, the previous attack is remembered for attack property purposes (unblockable second heavy in axe form, hyper armor heavy in staff form).
Makes him a lot more interesting and adds more depth to his gameplay.

not to mention that all those useless Offensive Stance feints cost like half your stamina to pull off including the followup heavy if you actually did land them

The dodge changes made Zhanhu insufferable to play against, holy

>>865228
HL is fine and fun to play the way he is now, he does not need any touching whatsoever. Also you forgot about his wavedash, which can close gaps easlily.

>>865278
I am very proficient at wavedashing and I can pretty easily keep up with even assassins BUT offensive lights have no range and the transition from offensive stance to neutral for the celtic curse to actually chase is too slow for the celtic curse to actually reach them making the point moot

either give him a offensive stance chase, defensive stance chase, or an actual chase sprint attack

>>865273
600ms enhanced dodge attacks that can be come from either direction
haha weeeeeee

>>865278
>speed up at least one of this opener heavies so he gets a heavy off GB like everyone else
I know getting 18 from his zone isn't really terrible like a 12 damage light, but the zone doesn't chain into anything so you're better off lighting and trying to follow up with something else
>gib chase
making celtic curse undodgeable might be a little obnoxious, but it WOULD make it a chase tool
>give his zone a property or speed it up or SOMETHING
jesus it's literally only good for a couple meme uses during a fight where you punish a dodge attack or two before they catch on to what you're doing
>remove stamina cost for exiting offensive stance
>lower the costs of basically everything in offensive stance OR give him the JJ treatment where he has modified stamina regen while in his stance
using 86 stamina out of 120 for ONE mixup is hilarious though

oh and I've seen this floated around a time or two ever since they started giving everyone dodge recovery cancels
>let highlander dodge out of kick and grab recoveries but still leave them GB vulnerable
though that's more of a schizophrenic pipe dream given how strong wavedashing already is

>>865485
It's impressive that the patch made to reduce dodge attack spam gave Zhanhu a dodge attack mixup that is impossible to GB.

>Dodge Shaolin sweep to the left
>Still fall down

>>866467
The only impressive thing about this pacth is how fucking stupid these devs are.

>>866712
Don't you have to dodge right with a delay?

god I just KNOW I'm gonna see a bunch of tryharding shinobis, JJs, valks, and zhanhus spamming this unfunny shit
I cannot WAIT to get option selected and then watch this emote over and over and over again

>>867591
I'll probably cop this after we see the April's Fools stuff.

Not a complaint about the balance so probably ignored but the Outlanders should be called Mercenaries and be eligible characters to fulfill any of the three faction specific Orders.

Think they'll ever add a fencer with a rapier to this game?

>>867958
Aztec warrior or Spartan hero please.

>>867958
>rapier
lmao there's no way they'd make it fun to play against
they'd label it something like
>light attack specialist
>infinite light light light chain
haha poke poke poke poke poke poke poke poke

>>867995
While I agree with you, I didn't ask if it would be fun or balanced

>>867991
>Spartan hero
I'd come on the spot.

>>868041
>>867958
I'm honestly amazed that they still haven't added a hoplite
>feat lineup themed around being near teammates and forming a defensive phalanx / bulwark
>full block stance
>long reach
>easy to put all kinds of symbols and stuff on the giant disk shield
though knowing Ubi they'd probably just steal most of the animations from Valk

>>868243
im amazed we got a fucking pirate before we get a hoplite. im surprised we got romans at all

Wish gear pieces could be altered per hero slot, so you could use a 3 perk set up that looks different for each of the 3 slots rather than one cosmetic change affecting all 3 slots

>hit someone with the thumbs down emote as cent at the start of a fight
>he now starts mashing Wow! and emotespamming on my body every time I die for 3 straight matches
Fucking hell, I was just trying to add some flavour to the match. Play vs AI if your ego is that fragile. Man I hate this game's playerbase

Man this season is garbage. Devs really don't know what the fuck to do with balance.

>>870330
>dodge heavies now have a light parry punish
>except the best dodge heavies in the game are omitted from this for some fucking reason, making them even more A/S tier option selecting moves than they already were
>the worst dodge heavies that were already bad are not omitted, making them less than worthless
oh and the bash whif chain shit
>haha everyone with a dodge bash is now GB vulnerable
>but this chain of logic does not apply to jorm who gets to freely throw a hyperarmor heavy upon whiffing his feintable 30 damage in chain bash which has no GB vulnerability to begin with
just fuckin awful
oh wait wait
also the way they did the dodge guard changes is fucking retarded
>theres no leeway period where for the first 150 ms or something the guard remains active before going away
>this leads to a bunch of akward horseshit where the animation cearly shows that the character should be able to block it, but they just get hit anyway
game feels the worst it's felt in like a year and a half

I have suspected for a long time though that the devs are just a bunch of fat retards who simp for a handful of characters while completely forgetting others exist
>tiandi gets a massive overpowered rework while already being A-tier at the time
>LB is getting an AWFUL obnoxious raider-tier rework despite also being a comfortable A-tier
>Highlander's kit has been basically untouched for 5 years other than getting a dodge heavy and lowered stamina costs on his shitty zone
>PK's 7 damage dodge attack is not punishable with a 24 - 30 damage heavy
>Warmonger who has straight up the BEST feats in the game and a strong moveset gets more buffs to her dodge attack and chain heavies while Nuxia, the character she stole her feats from, get neglected up until now
>Glad, the WORST character in the game, is now nerfed with the chain bash whif changes
they just don't give a shit about certain characters while having a massive boner for others

>>870369
Isn't Tiandi the best character in the game now?

>>870556
that or valkyrie
they both have extremely accessible openers and option selecting counters paired with pretty easy to pull off in-chain flooring moves that allow teammates to get in full heavies
honestly yeah it's probably valk in the #1 spot
>great chase with that sprint attack and 7m/s speed + rush
>a combination of her full block + bash defeats like 80% of the mixups and openers that can come your way forcing your opponent to hard read you to get the better of you
>the above makes her very defensive and great for stalling
>good ranged feat for cutting people off from revenge or swaying a 1v1 in your favor
>juggernaut, easily the best multi-hero tier 2 feat in the game
>if you're feeling really meta you can just run fury flask
if you don't have a consistent way to defeat her block without getting bashed then you're basically fucked

ALSO GOD DAMN IT CAN WE GET ANOTHER PASS ON THE STAMINA DRAIN CHANGES
or to be more specific
can we change it so that people only get all their stamina back iff they stand up during Out of Stamina?
>land a caber toss on someone as highlander
>I am now likely well below half my stamina pool after getting off the following heavy
>deal 40 stamina damage with the grab
>they stand up with all their shit back, making the 40 stamina drain completel pointless
just makes me want to only use the kick
BUT IT'S A 700 MS NEUTRAL BASH
I CAN'T GET ANYONE UNLESS IT'S AFTER DODGING A HEAVY ATTACK OR A BASH

So they nerfed the time BP can enter full guard but Kyoshin can stay in full guard and react to your GB attempt, not to mention he goes into full guard way faster, these devs are so fucking stupid.

>>871408
Also the full guard counter with feats stuns you, heals him and bleeds you.

>>871418

hitstun is good game design chud
seethe chud
baby
crybaby
ubisoft is perfect and infallable
giant obese retard is literally saving the game and you're crying

>in chain bash that confirms a 30 damage heavy + tons of damage from teammates
>can be feinted to a GB
>chains into an unblockable heavy on whif, which can displace opponents into a wall netting just about the same damage you'd get if you had landed the bash
>no GB vulnerability
it might be time to go postal at the ol' ubisoft offices after this one boys
there is zero reason not to throw the bash every single time
