For Honor |OT| And shame are huge parts of it

So after completing the tutorial it said I got the pre-order bonus... but when I checked my Warden... There was nothing there?

Is it a glitch?
 
Trying Shugoki a bit now and man he's hilarious.

Instantly sold once I saw his guard break follow up flinging people like golf balls. He's sooooo slow though...hard to adjust after playing Nobushi and Kensei so much in the betas.
 
So uh... Despite taking part in the Alpha, Closed Beta, and the Open Beta, Ubisoft Club apparently did not record that so I don't get any of the rewards.
 
I'm doing advanced tutorial with Peacekeeper. Does it ever end? I have all 3 objective areas controlled and thought that was the winning condition, but it just says, "Keep Practicing". Enemies continuously trickle in.

Hold B, or whatever the equivalent is for that.

Oh wait, I think you selected to keep practicing instead of finishing the tutorial. Quit practice manually.
 
The beta rewards not unlocking for anyone yet?

When i logged into the game it popped up about me being in closed beta, but on uplay the rewards for beta show as locked.
 
Whats the point of the tutorial when you first boot up the game if the game is just going to make the first mission of the SP, go over all the tutorial again.
 
So with how heavily they nerfed the peace keeper's bleed, what is my best bet if bleeding was a fun mechanic for me. The Samurai woman with the spear?

Yes. The Nobushi's bleed is still pretty beefy, doing about a quarter of a health square, I think. The Nobushi even has a passive ability where she does more damage if her opponent is bleeding.


I haven't seen the newly nerfed Peacekeeper in action, but based on what I'm hearing, they may have nerfed her bleed a bit too hard. I don't think three stabs after her guard break should be doing about half of an opponent's life bar, but one full health square at the very least for all three stabs.
 
Lol, I suck. Fell asleep just before the game unlocked for NA.

Oh well. Scooted through the tutorials and quickly checked out the three new characters in practice mode. Valkyrie and Big McLargehuge seem like a good time. Not sure that I like Halberd Guy. Will play for realsies tomorrow. :D

As a PK fan, I'm glad to hear the grab-n-stab has been nerfed. Shit was bonkers.
 
I have been thinking more about a Star Wars DLC.

You can have many different classes with different stance, teras kasi etc.

Different light sabres.

You can have force powers like they way you use stuff in domination, force lightning ex could be blocked and returned.

Maybe even Hero mode, play as Yoda or Darth Vader.
 
I know this will be an unpopular opinion but fuck the poison/bleed mechanic. It's so dumb and feels like it's going against the essence of the game which really is a fighting game... In nearly every fighter, hell, most games, poison only drains you down to 1 health... It's dumb that it can outright kill you.
 
Felt like screwing around against bots to learn a new class, and discovered all bots in vs ai Dominion are level 3. Though it seems like my team's bots are level 1, because they never kill anything.

Just an exercise in complete frustration. Looks like I'll never bother "leisurely" farming the ai orders for steel. I'll do that when I want a harder challenge than other players.
 
Haven't played an ubisoft game in a long while.

Will I hate them/myself for the season pass? Not really looking to invest that much money atm...

Also, does this game tickle the itch of the 1 vs 1 jedi knight games?
 
So, is there any point in getting this for single-player?

Unfortunately Teras Kasi doesn't exist anymore.
 
Okay, Shoguki might of won me over after I homerun'ed a guy into a bonfire. Then off a castle, then down a pit. Think I really have to change how I play as this character, you have to be willing to eat damage for better trades.
 
Does anyone else feel really dirty when you load into a duel, see the arena, and realize how many ways you can throw the enemy off the edge? And then you do it?
 
Is it worth it for that alone? Thinking about pulling the trigger, but might not have enough time to fully embrace the multiplayer

Not for 60€ but ~30-35€ if you like this style of game it could be worth it.

I've only played 1/3 tho ;D But I heard good things about the rest
 
Did some more matches with Valkyrie. Her Heavy->Shield Bash->Sweep is pathetic. Using a Sweep after a Shield Bash is a complete waste of stamina and pretty much guaranteed to miss against a competent player. Her heavy is slow too and easy to parry or block, so you'll probably get no damage from attempting that combo. On the other hand, a Sweep after a throw or headbutt is guaranteed to hit but does pretty much no damage and requires a Guard Break, which has terrible range.

So far, it seems like her only options are relying on Guard Breaks, which require you to get super close, or Light Attacks, which do little damage and are easily dodged by Assassins. She's pretty much like an Assassin without the mobility and speed. Hopefully I can discover some better tactics tomorrow.
