I want to get back into playing it but honestly it seems like hot garbage. I was praying for something like M&B meets chivalry but instead we got...whatever we have now. Game went from gritty semi-realism to goofy bullshit.
>Ubi fucks up the balance and adds lots of characters with heavy CC, endless mixups, fast attacks and other bullshit.
>Ubi listens to normies and fucks up the grounded world by adding pirates, ninjas, bronze age egyptians, pirates and...whatever the fuck else.
>No new armor is added to the game, and instead of cool historical pieces we get the same 5 armor pieces with more spikes or slightly different coloring. Same with weapons.
>knights and vikings are left to wallow in shit while the weebs get extremely nice looking gear nearly every season.
>Half the viking roster is still wearing leather fetish gear for some fucking reason.
Honestly the game was a huge letdown. Ubi needs to hand the reins over to someone else who knows what they are doing so they can scrap all the bullshit and make something worth playing, preferably more in line with the CG gameplay we saw way back when.

Don't get me wrong, there was always goofy bullshit but there was some semblance of verisimilitude. The main draw for the game, at least before and at launch, was that appeal. People were shitting the bed at actual fencing techniques being used (halfswording, mordhau). The issue is they cranked the sillyness up to 15 and seem to have lost sight of their original ideas.

>>998398
Don't forget certain duel maps where Shugoki would win by daemon balling you off the stage 2 seconds after the round started.

>>998401
The original producer where the fuck did he go? had clear ideas of what he wanted the game to look and feel like but the problem was that he couldn't figure out how the game would actually play, they ended up going for the art of war system because it actually translated into something sensible while still retaining the idea of actual weapon combat, certain moves ended up not making it into the final release because of animation issues or something else, i.e. Warden's heavy finishers were mordhau swings in the beta, but because of his very shitty resume he had no idea how to properly balance it.

He had very clear ideas of how to make each hero have a unique feel and identity but didn't seem to understand game balance, even if unlock tech wasn't a thing the for honor esports tournament would've still been a complete shitshow because the producer didn't understand a single thing about multiplayer games let alone fighting games. His idea of a gritty for honor died when the game crashed and burned and he left to parts unknown.

The game under Roman's leadership may have gotten more fantastical but the game is unironically better for it because Roman could strike a better balance between actually playable and various historical concepts and allowing for more diversity in terms of what sort heroes and abilities are present in the game without going overboard.

Post Roman, we'll just have to see what the new Viking Hero will be like because the Warmonger. Gryphon and the Outlanders were just gimmicky experiments so them getting sillier is understandable because that's intentional. If the Viking Hero ends up being something ridiculous as well then yeah they've lost it

I have no idea what happened to the original lead for the game. I assume they fired him or stuck him in a cellar somewhere because no one has heard a peep from him.
>didn't understand a single thing about multiplayer games let alone fighting games.
Just my two cents, but it seemed that the original intent for the combat system was supposed to be something closer to Chiv/Mordhau/M&B, instead of the fighter-ish game we have no. A back and forth of strikes and blocks until someone gets a hit in via feinting or gets a guard break. The issue (and I assume the issue still) is that combos end as soon as an attack is blocked, attacks were too slow and you had a limited chain. Most other slasher games aren't like that.
>The game under Roman's leadership may have gotten more fantastical but the game is unironically better for it because Roman could strike a better balance between actually playable and various historical concepts
Hard disagree. The game has become outright fantastical with little basis in history or verisimilitude. The combat also went down the shitter as now its based on shit tons of CC, unblockable spam/mixups and 50/50 guesses.
It really isn't my cup of tea anymore so I may be a bit outdated. The last time I played was when they released the ching chong han-ish characters who didn't really fit the setting (much like most of the newer ones). I also remember fighting the pirate bitch.
I was hoping at some point they would return to form and we might get a glimpse of what could have been but after they kept releasing goofy shit and the same 5 armor pieces I dipped.

Everything since year 4 has been garbage.

The atmosphere of year 1 will never be back.

The next new hero is a Viking as shown on the year 7 roadmap, not sure what they're gonna go with but it might just end up being similar to Kyoshin and Warmonger in that it's a retool of a campaign character's moveset.

>>998446
>The combat also went down the shitter as now its based on shit tons of CC, unblockable spam/mixups and 50/50 guesses.
There's no CC outside of feats, do you mean the wide hitboxes on certain moves? as for the mixups and 50/50s they serve the purpose of viable offense because the biggest issue with the game is how reactable a lot of things are to the general playerbase, there was a poll on reddit to get the general reaction times and light attack reactable of the playerbase on reddit a while ago and the average reaction time was 200ms and most people could block lights semi consistently this is post CCU too.

You need things to force reactions and those things have to be unreactable to an extent because otherwise you get the incredibly unfun turtle meta. Mordhau and Chivalry aren't different in this regard because feints, kicks and accels exist and work in similar fashion to 50/50s and bashes in For Honor, the difference being that blocking is an active thing you do in those games whereas in For Honor it's passive so how you open up opponents looks different but still follows the same principal.

>The last time I played was when they released the ching chong han-ish characters who didn't really fit the setting
No, the wu lin work fine in the setting and are for the most part more historically accurate than the base game vikings, it's just that introduced more fantastical feats into the game. As for pirate yeah, I agree that the gun is goofy because of how it's implemented. As for armor they're slowly trying to add more styles for each character but they're slow because budget lmao. They outsourced the design to a shanghai division recently.

>as for the mixups and 50/50s they serve the purpose of viable offense
Thats not surprising. The swing time for most lights is what? 600ms? Mordhau has around 500 or less, as do most other slashers. FH is fairly slow in that regard and again, since (I think) you can't chain combos when they are blocked you don't have much hope for landing normal attacks.
>Mordhau and Chivalry aren't different in this regard because feints, kicks and accels exist and work in similar fashion to 50/50s and bashes in For Honor
The GB is supposed to act as a kick or at least function the same way. M&B, Chiv and Mordhau all have a kick as a way to open up blocks or turtling opponents. As for the 50/50/bashes I don't think they are a good comparison. You can easily react to most feints, morphs and drags in chiv/mh/M&B (if their servers were better) where as in FH it is guaranteed damage if you guess wrong. You also don't really get locked out of your character via special moves and have to sit through a 3-second cutscene like you do in FH either.
>No, the wu lin work fine in the setting
I respectfully disagree. It seems that the only reason they were added in was to get a slice of the chinese market.

Well, I told you I hadn't played in a hot minute lol.

>>998469
>The swing time for most lights is what? 600ms?
500ms for openers with 100ms delayed indicators, some heroes have 400ms chain lights
some heroes also have enhanced lights which allow chains to continue even when blocked, there is also now frame advantage so light finishers leave you disadvantaged while heavies give you plus frames

These are pins which functionally aren't different from bashes but aren't forms of crowd control like Brapmonger's feats are

>The GB is supposed to act as a kick or at least function the same way
GBs are not an opener and do not function as kicks in Mordhau/Chiv because they're easily countered if done from neutral. Bashes like Centurions legion kick are more akin to kicks in MordChiv.

>As for the 50/50/bashes I don't think they are a good comparison. You can easily react to most feints, morphs and drags in chiv/mh/M&B (if their servers were better) where as in FH it is guaranteed damage if you guess wrong
They aren't or at least they shouldn't, if that is case now then how does a general 1v1 encounter work in all three games? I'm able to react and parry lights in current For Honor but I can't react to Feints in Mordhau.

I respectfully disagree. It seems that the only reason they were added in was to get a slice of the chinese market.
Half true, medival china fits because of the weapon diversity, plenty of references for classical chinese martial arts and plenty of unique yet still tone fitting armor pieces, only downside was the lack of masks because the chinese believed heavily in showing face, they're also right next door to Japan so it's not weird. A precedent for other types of warriors existing outside of the three original factions was already established with the inclusion of Centurion, Gladiator and Highlander who are explicitly foreign to the factions they fight under.

>These aren't CC, they're bash moves

They are crowd control anon. If you were playing any other game, they would be considered light CC.
>GBs are not an opener and do not function as kicks in Mordhau/Chiv because they're easily countered if done from neutral
So are kicks in those games? The point of them is to mix up/throw off the rhythm game your are playing with your opponent by using an attack with little/no windup and to crack a blocking opponents guard. This is especially true for M&B where shields block stuff from all directions. It is also meant to stop face hugging.
>how does a general 1v1 encounter work in all three games
Its a back and forth game where you attempt to chamber block and outstamina your opponent to disarm them/get a hit in or throw a feint/morph to create an opening for a free hit. You can also throw kicks in to stun them momentarily and throw off their rhythm.
>I'm able to react and parry lights in current For Honor but I can't react to Feints in Mordhau.
Mordhau is pretty shit desu. The parry timing is very strict and their netcode is probably the worst I have seen in any medieval slasher. I play in third person (im used to mount and blade) and the amount of times I have seen whiffed attacks hit or attacks go through my shield/parry is astounding. I got around 50 hours in total and then deleted it from my steam account. FH also has its issues, but blocking isn't anywhere near as tight as in Mordhau for timing requirements.
>Snip
There wasn't any indication of them being there in the story or in any of the extended media, they just kind of...exist. The Cent/Glad and everything else was poorly thought out and poorly implemented too, but it somewhat makes sense seeing as the knights speak Latin and have some vestiges of Latin architecture floating around on some of their maps. Out of all the factions the "vikings" got the worst treatment IMO.

>>998515
They are the same ethno-cultural group, ruled under the same political systems, with most of the same arms/armor, using mostly the same architecture, using mostly the same battle tactics, but get portrayed as backwards ooga booga tier savages.

>>998515
>They are crowd control anon.
No, they're designed as ganking tools
>The point of them is to mix up/throw off the rhythm game your are playing with your opponent by using an attack with little/no windup and to crack a blocking opponents guard
so basically analogous to a 500ms bash in for honor like the aforementioned legion kick. The point of a GB in for honor is to punish an opponent who's either attempting to parry or dodge a feintable attack or after you've avoided a move with long enough recovery frames.

>Mordhau is pretty shit desu. The parry timing is very strict and their netcode is probably the worst I have seen in any medieval slasher.
I see, I haven't gotten around to trying out Chiv 2 yet so I can't comment too much about it specifically.

>Its a back and forth game where you attempt to chamber block and outstamina your opponent to disarm them/get a hit in or throw a feint/morph to create an opening for a free hit
So basically it's still the same general idea of opening up your opponent or countering them with parries and what not. But what about initiating fights, if most things like feinting and what not are reactable wouldn't it turn into whomever attacks first loses kinda situations?

>There wasn't any indication of them being there in the story or in any of the extended media, they just kind of...exist
That's how it works for most additional characters in hero based games including traditional fighters like Street Fighter and Tekken. New characters aren't prestablished nor is there any necessary reason to do so because it gives you more freedom in terms of what you can add. Cent and Gladiator make just as much sense as Afeera does if you talk about cultural relavance to the original factions due to her being a Saracen. In For Honor's lore the Wu Lin are the enemy that the Chosen(samurai) were recovering from fighting hence why they had the lowest population in the story and hero lore trailers.

>>998534
>No, they're designed as ganking tools
Anon...that is literally what CC is for. It is used to stun or move a character allowing others to follow up and hit them or to reposition them.
>so basically analogous to a 500ms bash in for honor like the aforementioned legion kick
Kind of? It depends on what game you are playing because if functions differently in each of them.
>The point of a GB in for honor is....
Yeah, but its also meant to nab people at the start up of their attacks to get a free hit in and again, to break up the back and forth.
>So basically it's still the same general idea of opening up your opponent or countering them with parries and what not
Basically but instead of unblockable attacks or CC its more about mind games and weapon choices, which IMO is what FH should have been about as well.
>But what about initiating fights, if most things like feinting and what not are reactable wouldn't it turn into whomever attacks first loses kinda situations?
For FH or other slashers? In the case of other slashers all attacks and combos are fairly easy to read/block. You are mainly trying to bait your opponent into making a mistake and give you an opening. There is some tech you can use like drags/accels to go faster/slower but IMO that is not really intended.
>Cent and Gladiator make just as sense....
Again, not really. Both are fairly badly placed into the world/lore. Why the fuck is a gladiator on the battlefield and running around basically naked? Why is a heavily outdated field officer who doesn't even have a shield fighting on the front lines? Neither of them really make sense other than being Latin, which the knight faction takes influence from (kind of).
>Afeera does if you talk about cultural relavance to the original factions due to her being a Saracen
Saracen's don't have much to do with either ethno-cultural group.

>>998584
>Anon...that is literally what CC is for
No, CC is typically used to mitigate and manage enemies in XvX situations whereas hence why it's called Crowd Control in For Honor pin moves are easily interupted and aren't meant to be used as such unless you have the numerical advantage in a team fight thus ganking tool or its a 1v1 and in that instance its no different to a bash. Actual crowd control is only present in the form of feats

>Kind of?
Could you elaborate more? What's the general speed of kicks in Chiv 2 and M&B?

>Basically but instead of unblockable attacks or CC its more about mind games and weapon choices, which IMO is what FH should have been about as well.
It still is a mind game, the point of unblockables is to force the opponent to make reads as opposed to just plain reacting to things. This is also true of most fighting games where defense is about reading and predicting rather than just raw reaction times.

>You are mainly trying to bait your opponent into making a mistake and give you an opening... drags/accels to go faster/slower but IMO that is not really intended.
This is the same general premise behind unblockables and 50/50s in For Honor then in that they serve as ways of forcing reactions from your opponent, drags/accels should be intended because they give you another viable form of offense if they weren't then that would beg the question of how the devs intended for general 1v1s to not just be turtle fests if everything is reactable.

>Glad and Cent
Asking this is akin to asking why any of the Samurai can cut through Lawbringer's armour or why Kensei is fighting with an anti calvary weapon instead of a katana or a naginata. It looks cool, and gives them visual and moveset distinction from the rest of the cast.

>Saracen's don't have much to do with either ethno-cultural group
Saracens have a lot to do with the Romans and Medival Europe such as partially inspiring gothic architecture which is present in the game.

rep 60+ and I just lost 10 games in a row. Is improving reaction time possible or is it genetics. And why is my teammates always going 0/6 or 2/5 while the enemy team constantly goes 15/1 or some bullshit like that. Is this a skill issue or a matchmaking issue. Im 8rmLoSiNg mY MinD

>>998961
Do the human benchmark test, also what's your monitor's refresh rate?

Ideally you want a reaction time of 200ms(which is the average reaction time of people in their 20s anyway) so you can block lights, don't worry if you can't react to everything you can still try to predict them.

As for your teammates? probably because they have a low elo and it's freeplay weekend so you're up against people that haven't played for a long while but still have a better idea of what they're doing.

>>998877
>why it's called Crowd Control in For Honor
For honor is wrong then lol. In any other game or even to a bystander that is considered soft CC.
>Could you elaborate more?
They are pretty fast, probably below 500ms not including the small windup window. You can counter them by kicking back (works the same way as when two people gb eachother) and to put it in FH terms, are able to break full blocks and give you a free hit (also like gb). They don't displace the target or drain stamina IIRC.
>This is also true of most fighting games
That is kind of my issue with FH, it went from a melee slasher to a pseudo fighting game with lots of CC. Slashers are more of a back and forth and trying to bait your opponent into making a mistake where as FH is more about spamming CC/I-frame moves until you win.
>if they weren't then that would beg the question of how the devs intended for general 1v1s to not just be turtle fests if everything is reactable
Mordhau and Chiv had this problem, and the way around it was a stamina bar and disarming, as well as speeding up the combat slightly. M&B has super fast combat in comparison to both as well as a harder melee system to master. Turtling in FH was a massive issue way beck when when attacks were far slower IIRC.
>such as partially inspiring gothic architecture which is present in the game.
They didn't though. Gothic architecture comes from the merging of Germanic and Roman architecture, who already used keystones and arches quite a significant amount.

>>999042
>considered soft CC.
No, because they aren't usable in that context because they're fully interuptable nor can you reliably used them in teamfights, they can only be used in 1v1s just like a bash or in Xv1s to gank. The only form of actual CC comes entirely from feats

>not including the small windup window
Wind up counts, unless it's cancelable, because that's presumably where you would counter kick

>Mordhau and Chiv had this problem, and the way around it was a stamina bar and disarming
Is it like Samurai Shodown's disarming where it's relegated to a type of counter and special move or is a case where you either just hit hard enough or hit enough times while they're guarding that they drop their weapon?

>That is kind of my issue with FH, it went from a melee slasher to a pseudo fighting game.
Despite what the concept trailers and that old cgi mockup of gameplay showed It was always partially a fighting game.

its not unless a new hero comes out which is usually broken for a few weeks before they get nerfed to the ground. anything you can buy with money you can buy with steel (in game currency) and it doesnt take long at all to save up for anything. all armour and weapon variations are free but locked behind reps on characters

no, everything is cosmetic and the flashier effects of other players can actually be disabled in settings so you can cuck other players out of cosmetics being shown

It's actually closest in mechanics to a traditional fighting game like SF or MK

it's got pretty great fashion for your cool fella

>>999337
As you've probably seen in this general, people tend to both love and hate the game. It's an utterly unique multiplayer experience, essentially a very basic 4v4 fighting game that's made possible with the three-directional combat system and souls-type lock on. There are a million and one things wrong with the game (although, credit, it's improved significantly since release), but people who enjoy the core combat--despite shitting on the game constantly--have nowhere else to go, as this game is literally the only one in its genre. It does look and feel great, animation/effects-wise which helps.

As far as pay-to-win goes, despite being made by Ubisoft, the makers of the notoriously grindy Rainbow Six Seige, For Honor has basically escaped that kind of grind. Depending on the version of the game you buy, you may start with a very small roster of heroes, but the heroes themselves come with all the bells and whistles of their movesets. Besides purchasing heroes, the only other gameplay-affecting "meta" items are gear, which drops randomly and often. You'll have to put a solid amount of play sessions into a character in order to level them up enough to get their highest-level gear, but once you're there, you're there. There's no additional grinding, and "item level" hasn't been raised ever. The gear treadmill isn't a thing in this game; you just level up your character and then save gear with the perks you want. Shortcuts are available (you can buy XP boosts, and "Champion Status", which increases gear drop rate), but gear has such a minimal effect on the game and is so easy to get without spending money on it that I honestly don't even think it's worth the money. Aside from heroes and those boosts, all other purchasables are entirely cosmetic.

Before a week ago I would have said not worth it, since PS4 had a lot of trouble running the game at a reasonable framerate. However, just last week, a "performance mode" dropped (that you will absolutely need to enable for multiplayer) that at least gets you up to 30fps, which should at least make the game playable. Still, I'm gonna be real here: 30fps on wifi means you're going to have a tough time parrying some of the faster attacks, while some people you encounter will be able to do it every time. If that sounds like incredible bullshit to you, it is, and I just wanna set expectations before you buy this. You should still be able to play the game normally, and the matchmaking should pretty quickly put you in lobbies where you're not versus those people, but they're gonna be out there and they will absolutely have a noticeable advantage over you.

>Soldiers keep the post Y4S1 Appearance upgrade and now guard ramparts and attack/defend the ram in Breach with the appropriate stats
>Viking Soldiers now wield an axe and shield while knight soldiers wield a mace and shield. Samurai Soldiers keep their katana
>In Breach, Knight 'soldiers' now fire crossbows, samurai 'archers' use arquebus rifles. This change is purely cosmetic and their projectiles still behave the same.
>The Breach commander of each faction now has a unique weapon, the Samurai Commander wields a kanabo, the Viking one wields a massive axe, the Knight commander remains the same though. (animations should still work)
>If not being attacked or near an enemy for long enough, basic warriors in the mid-lane or around the ram will start to square up their formation.
>Hero tiles in the character select screen now depict the hero in artwork of their culture (So Samurai are rendered like Ukiyo-e paintings, knights as stone reliefs, etc.) with the normal selection tile taking over when you hover over them

Remember what they stole from us..

Boys, how the hell are you supposed to fight the aztec fucker? He does so much fucking damage.

Also, I love how they have to fix the "error has occurred" issue that has been here since release

>>999758
Learn to block 400ms lights, when they go for the in chain bas empty dodge because they might follow up with the zone in which case go for a GB if you're quick enough, if you think they're gonna go for the bash finisher dodge again for a free GB. If they go for a forward dodge GB them because the bash is extremely GB vunerable for some reason, do this enough and they'll start going for either the zone or the forward dodge light.

>>999792
I honestly would love to learn how to beat this guy, but I swear to christ this game has some of the worst netcode I have ever seen. Massive lagspikes, constant rollbacks, lots of rubber banding. Half the games you get an "error" message and then get kicked.
How the fuck do you niggers play this shit?
>Its ur internet
Its really not. I have a command prompt in the background constantly pinging google and have zero packetloss on my end. This shit has been an issue since launch and is one of the main reasons I deleted the game.

>>999795
Unironically works fine on my machine.

>>999797
It works fine sometimes. Majority of the time it is the most unfun, laggy, bullshit experience I have ever played with terrible UI and design choices. I think I lose more to rollback and input eating than I do most enemy players

>>999803
It works fine all the time on my machine

>>999795
That really does seem like a (You) issue, I cannot even remember the last time I had server/connection issues with the game.

>>999804
>>999805
I don't have issues with any other games, and don't have any packet loss on my end. The only game that comes close is Mordhau, which has notoriously shitty servers and netcode. I can't remember the last time I lagged out of a game or had any packet loss desu,

By the way, the new aztec hero has so many I-frames on his dodge attack its fucking absurd and I can't grab him out of it either, which is bullshit. I think I may just uninstall again. One night of playing this game was enough for a few years lol.

>>999807
His dodge attack seems average too me when it comes to iframes
>I can't grab him out of it either
Almost all dodge attacks that aren't feintable are only GB vulnerable during the dodge part, not the attack

>>999812
I am fairly consistently able to smack Orochi, Glad, kensei and others with a heavy as Warlord but can't do so to him for some reason. Doesn't matter if I predict it or not.
>Almost all dodge attacks that aren't feintable are only GB vulnerable during the dodge part
I haven't managed that either. I have had a few times where I grab him just as his dodge starts, only to slide off and eat an attack. After both those incidents I alt-f4'd and went to go play another game.
The game is funner than I remember I will give it that. It is also infinitely more frustrating too.

>>999816
I tried noth Glad and Ocelotl with a friend on Warlord and saw no difference.
>I haven't managed that either.
You aren't getting the timing right, but you're generally supposed to feint to neutral than parry dodge attacks anyway. GBing a dodge attack is difficult because the GB vulnerability is so short and also depends on other factors like hit/block stun, attack startup of the feintable attack etc.

>Go 10/0 and complete multiple challenges
>Game nearly ends
>Get booted out with an error code
Yeah, I am uninstalling.

>>999807
That's now the worst part, his light attacks in chains are unreactable. On top of that, there is a mechanic, which gives you damage resistance in a gank, up to 75%. Certain movies reset that, most characters have one or two of these moves, Aztec man has THREE, which are his bashes. So, he very effective, and brutal in ganks.

>>1009554
he is a lot more reliant on fundamentals and knowing how much you can fuck with people's minds with top heavy
do note, you can soft feint into A LOT of things off of any top heavy and his range is bigger then most

>>1009564
I know. I just had really bad games against Aramushas and Kyoshins and was frustrated

Can somebody explain why my performance is so fucking shit with Jorg? I find him straightforward enough but I have no idea why people always read my feints/flies perfectly. I can never fucking land anything with him for some reason.

>>1009743
people do turn on auto readers... even for non serious modes

>>1009787
I don't think there's those at my rep level (~20) and I SOMETIMES get to land stuff if they mess up the timing on their parry but like I said maybe 1/10 times. I don't remember the last time one of my guardbreaks from neutral let me do anything with it. Feinting stuff just puts me at a disadvantage most of the time.

I really want to try warmonger but the steel grind is so fucking miserable that I'll definitely get sick of the game again before I have enough to buy her. It doesn't help that steel is also used to upgrade gear instead of pure salvage for whatever reason so it's an even more scarce resource. I also refuse to spend $8 to buy a hero for an 8 year old game that I already paid full price for.

>>1012839
that's why autistically playing one hero forever, regardless of how terrible they are, is the best. Just keep playing Warden and try to be more creative and devilish with your feintable moves.
>oooooh you thought I was gonna bash, but actually I've feinted and now I've parried your dodge attack
>throw out a neutral heavy and then feint it and immedialy throw out a zone

push it to the limit and also try to start looking at people's animations and try to get better at light parrying by doing that

Like why in the remote fuck do I need to use steel, a scarce and important resource, to change the appearance of gear when I have well over 500,000 salvage? It's all kinds of fucked up and it makes me seethe knowing that it will never be fixed.

The more I play this game the worse I get I've reached a point where people just block every single light attack and feinting anything just puts me at a disadvantage however letting heavies fly is a death sentence since everything gets parries 99% of the time. The 1 in a 100 time it actually hits someone due to lag or whatever I'm already losing 80-20 so who gives a shit if I got a single hit in when I'm going to die and they'll get all their health back in 5 seconds anyways.

maybe you should like open your eyes dude and not rely too much on indicators and rely on animations
or get a new monitor to get that sweet 165fps

Afeera is the most niggerdly bullshit hero I think in the entire game.

Every single hero having some form of unblockable, shove, kick, etc. makes ganks virtually fucking unwinnable and you might as well just let the enemy kill you if any 2 of most of the roster are attacking you at the same time.

>>1015267
It's not those things that make a character good at ganking.
Pirate has tons of unblockables but is one of the worst gankers in the game due to how much revenge she feeds.
Things that make ganks strong are pins/stuns like Cent's charged punch, Shugoki's hug, Medjay's grab.

>>1015271
Yea, those were included inside of etc. It's just an overall extremely frustrating experience. I don't expect dominion to be full of honorfag 1v1 cancer but I'd at least like a fucking chance when I'm getting ganked.

>>1015287
it used to be the opposite where ganking activated revenge so easily that it would last forever

what you should do these days is that a teammate either notice and help you, or hope they're doing objectives

You are saying the exact same thing about Afeera that I said about Hito last thread. We are both correct.

>>1017817
Hmmmm you can circumvent needing good reaction speed, but playing a character who has lots of agency for getting out of neutral safely and quickly. I would recommend someone with a neutral bash, neutral hyperarmor, or both if possible. So Warlord. Also having dodge attacks and full blocks is great for option selecting certain moves.
Yeah play Warlord and just focus on having high health + damage resistance and trading with hyperarmor.

I've tried Warlord and Conqueror but that full block thingie doesn't seem to activate when I need to get out of a light spam rush. If I do get a block once in a blue moon all I get out of it is a light attack's worth of damage. Trading never works for me I always end up dying first.
>>1017861
I like Berserker but half my feints don't register for some reason so my heavy attacks get parried a lot. I hear Shaman plays quite similarly is she any better?

>>1018028
>is Shaman better than zerk
I want to say she's just different, but no, she's just worse than Zerk.

>>1017849
I can at least see where people might actually think hito is cool. Afeera is not cool in any way.

Maybe. Hito still has a female option. I'm just offended every time I see an afeera player and accept that I'm probably going to lose since she has an option to deal with everything I might do. Though I also feel this way about a fair number of heroes. I finally found the solution beating shaolin retards for instance. I've been playing raider and warmonger recently and have found the most reliable way of beating them is to simply trade hits with hyper armor. Trying to fight them normally has made me want to put my fist through a wall.

Light attacks stuff Storm Rush. If you think he's going to Storm Rush but you know you can't get the parry, just light him instead. It's the same damage for most characters as a parry would be but it's way easier.

>>1018337
that applies anon can predict when he intends to react.

>>1018337
You can't light attack stormrush off of medium-heavy hit stun, which includes storm rush itself if he doesn't go for the light follow up.

I would kill for some new fucking Kensei armor. All of Japanese history to pull from and they pick something so boring. Even roaches have cooler gear.

>nope they just keep going and somehow their lights keep hitting you before yours hits them
I don't get it. I know there's enhanced lights that don't bounce off block but I'm sure this happens even with characters that don't have it. Fuck Valkyrie and Nobushi so much, dude.

Is the solution to beating kyoshin to just never fucking attack him? Every time I throw out any attack, feinted or not, they just full block and I eat a million damage for free.

>>1018553
If your light isn't coming out before their light on your frame advantage then it's possible you're moving your guard before you light causing you to lose frame advantage. Guard swaps take 100 ms.

>>1018610
Bashes are all about to be very fast so you should be able to knock him out of it easier when they bring out that patch.

>>1018655
>Bashes are all about to be very fast
This sounds like a change for the worse. Oh well warmonger claws should be actually useable now without needing to 50/50 mind game people lol

Sure Ocelotl is ridiculous but Cent is still one of the best gankers.

>>1018756
Shinobi and Ocelotl also have pins, their bashes also reset hitstun so you take full damage and can be confirmed from any hit/blockstun

Always seems like all the coolest heroes are gender locked. If I could play a buff Roman wench, I'd be content.

Zhanhu has been the most disappointing waste of steel trash I have ever misspent. Feels like trying to stab someone with a needle but only using my teeth.

>>1019188
you're supposed to annoy and trick people to fear dealing with your unblockables with giant hitboxes

>>1019188
mash buttons and dodge attack spam

>>1019188
Zhanhu is one of the strongest characters in the game.

Is there somewhere where I can directly tell a developer to fucking kill themselves? Specifically whoever was involved with the creation and addition of both afeera and shaolin.

>>1019199
>with giant hitboxes
???????????????????????

>>1019437

>miss out on steel and shit because none of my friends are stupid enough to be playing this shit game
why do they even have this

>>1019647
So it encourages players to get their friends to buy the game.

Do they ever do event reruns?

>>1020269
yes, pretty much every season
but if you're asking because you see the all black pallet swatch, then you're fucked
they did the first ever rerun of that event a couple months back and said that it won't be coming back for a long while

Literally what's the point of this

The apollyon event, right? That was why I was asking.

>>1020278
>warmongers dodge attack is too slow to punish 80% of attacks
I know that feeling.

>>1020295
yep
happened in season 1 of this year
my condolences

>>1020304
Unfortunate. Whatever, I'm sure I'll drop the game for another 3 years in less than 2 weeks again. Will probably be EoS by then

>>1020306
just use the black material

>>1020312
I do. There's only a couple things I wanted from the event so it's not actually a big deal. I just wish they'd have decreased steel prices for executions and stuff after all these years.

the new raider execution looks hella jank

>>1020658
Yea it's really weird. Looks sped up for sure at the very least.

This game has so many crutch characters like Tiandi, Afeera and Warmonger jesus i play like a retard and still win.

>>1021724
Warmonger? Explain your reasoning. She is not anywhere close to a hero like afeera.

I'm a retard, how do I play against Afeera

>>1021806
You don't

>>1021811
Understandable, have a great day

>>1021806
Learn when and where she can chain-bash.
Try her out in the training mode and see her moveset.

>>1021724
Add shaolin.

>>1021971
What's such a shame is Shaolin used to be an extremely skillful and methodical read character in the same skill-class as Highlander. He was bad, but fun. They reworked him into an orange abomination that was "competitively viable".

>>1021984
I hate that yellow monkey nigger so much it's unreal.

>>1022590
This is me playing against Nobu, I am too slow to react to her light.

>>1023071
All lights are 500ms, all I can say is practice blocking lights in training ground.

>>1023079
Highlander has 400 ms lights in Offensive Stance
several characters have 400 ms chain lights even if their neutral lights are 500 ms

>>1023112
I should have said neutral lights.

>>1010365
I forgot to reply, Anon. Apparently, I use the default values for sensitivity. I have a lot of room on my desk for moving my arm, but if I didn't, I'd probably use a higher sensitivity. Sorry, I can't be of help.

how do I actually completely disable voice chat both ways so some nog blasting his disgusting subhuman music on open mic doesn't disrupt my gameplay with no way to mute him as he takes 5 minutes to load in?

>>1024528
It's not him, it's you. You're just bad. I think you probably know that, but I wanted to be sure. I'm not sure how you fucked up playing BP, but you did.

>>1024587
The inputs are too fucked up. Dodge forward heavy works but not dodge sideways heavy, you have to input light for that to work. Anything involving full block stance is just alien to me. Shit never engages properly. Feels like I have to contort sideways and then some to throw anything as this dude. Oh you want to flip an enemy? That'll be full block stance + light attack. Want to bash from neutral? You can do that but if you take 1ms too long to feint your tight heavy you'll just throw it and get parried! OOPS, you whiffed a guardbreak because it buffered four seconds later. Fuck this character.

>>1024528
>Stier in dominion
No.

>>1024585
I think somewhere in user interface or audio you can permanently mute both. It's always niggers and beaners, isn't it?

>>1024585
You literally can't. Even if you set voice chat volume to 0 you will still hear those shits during the loading acreen

>>1024952
>>1024585
What? I have all my VC shit disabled and I never hear anyone in loading screens. The only evidence I have that anyone ever speaks is that there is still a name pop up when they're talking.

>>1024585
On gaystation you can sit in a party and all of it gets automatically muted.
>>1024598
Stop trying to flip while you're in hitstun. The rest isn't unique to BP.

I hate the Poolin and the Redditlanders so much.

>>998313
They need new maps and perma gamemodes, it’s boring now. Also fix fucking bots they’re dogshit and worse than minions

Although a 4v4v4 would be insane and almost impossible to balance it would be sick for a ltm, they already have the means to do this with the guardian and trapper (event)

>>1025793
that would imply they have budget and it isnt getting funneled into other projects

>>1012839
Warmonger might be better than warden in some ways but she is a complete drag to play, repped her to 7 just to see the cosmetics than never touched her again. One of the most boring heros with zero personality or fun factor

>>1025796
Unfortunately true, you’d think with all the dogshit universal garbage they’d have some more money to spend, clearly not. It’s a shame it doesn’t get much funding the directing it’s heading is the best it’s been since launch unironically

Also I despise universal executions, they’re stiff, dogshit, and just look wonky. Aside from event exec and some faction locked ones (death by spears, arrows, cata) all they do is clog up the menu

>>1025808
Still, warden is way more fun to play imo. Sure he’s dogshit but if you’re good with him you can still rape in any gamemode. No need to rely on tranny unblockable dodge attacks

I genuinely despise Gladiator so much.

>>1025796
They do have budget or else they wouldn't do mocap again, but I've read they are also working on AC multiplayer right now

Is there a way to remove key buffering in this game? Pressing guardbreak too often makes it throw it again like 3-4 seconds later if it fails or gets countered. Playing Kensei makes him do all this weird random shit you didn't intend to do if you accidentally press keys twice in the heat of the moment since most of his moves soft-feint into each other.

>>1026140
I'm not sure if "buffering" is the right term but what I meant is key inputs being put in a queue and then executed much after when animations/stunlock is over. This shit fucking blows.

>>1028725
here's how I understand it
>"empty dodges" are GB vulnerable the entire time. This is so 50 / 50s still grant a heavy regardless of the coinflip
>regular dodge attacks only have a couple hundred ms of vulnerability at the very start
>extended dodge attacks (Warmonger, JJ, Tiandi) have significantly more vulnerability frames
But basically dodge attacks are vulnerable at the start and empty dodges are vulnerable the entire time
