It helps you understand how renown works and what gets you renown points for your character. Oh yeah that image is pretty good. Put that in the OP! And that points out something I left out, that if you're a heavy you're better off holding or contesting A or C than trying to kill mooks at B, while vanguards need to be killing mooks here and there. So that gives you a clear role in dominion based on what class you pick. And obviously assassins are just running around trying to gank players.

this is a cool fighting game that should be marketed as such and at 20-40 dollars instead of 60 aside from that I have no real input, the 1v1 and 2v2 modes are great and everything else is a clusterfuck where little of the mechanics make sense or play well good luck on your game, people willing to buy in

If you're a poor just wait a few months for a sale like with literally every video game You act like this is different. The 4v4 mode makes tons of sense if you spend a few seconds figuring it out, and is very addictive once you get it. I haven't done many duels since, its got so much more going on. But please, blame the game because you're small minded.

It's okay for people to have opinions and not like the game, IMHO. I loving love it and it hits all the right buttons for me but not everyone is going to feel the same way! Actual content: to add to the Dominins tips, do not forget your feats! Body count (should be a first level feat for everyone?) is INCREDIBLY important if you're going to be mixing things up at B - I've had it decide more than a few fights in my favor when I could zone attack for a full heal and the other guy couldn't. Make sure to play around with your options as you level up and experiment with what works best!

Alternatively, if you're still unsure about the game, grab some of your old Nintendo stuff and go trade it in for Steam credit at your local Gamestop (locations may have different trade in rates though? YMMV). Get For Honor for free! I traded in a bunch of Wii U games and a 3DS + games and got like $320. Nintendo is making GBS threads out money right now for stuff.

I got a double attack sword blade and a double throw range sword guard on kensei and it's ridiculous. I hope that random drops don't decide who gets the best gear, because this poo poo is insane.

You get swamped in so many rank 1 items that you can just pick out whichever one has the stat you like and boost it up to a rank in line with the rest of your equipment.

Is there some way to skip the 2 minute intro cinematic that randomly decides to pop up while loading the game?

ESC + spacebar on keyboard IIRC, controllers it's probably some combination of start + X/A.

I was very hype to play this and then I did and I find the controls reprehensible. Everything feels the opposite of 'tight' controls.

loving uplay overlay keeps the mouse on screen even during matches and it's the most distracting poo poo. Also glad to see group matchmaking is utterly hosed and lobbies drop rather than trying to find new players. Fresh Shesh Besh fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Feb 10, 2017 |

Chomp8645 posted:The mode is fine but the powerups and ease of revive are doing their absolute best to ruin it. Yeah, the powerups are basically a snowballing mechanic that mostly just make it easier for the winning team to win even harder. Whoever manages to get the first kill can rush to a powerup, approach the next fight with a significant advantage, get more powerups, and at that point it's almost over. Together with the reviving I've rarely seen a team make a comeback after being put on the backfoot.

this just really seems quite convoluted in mechanics making for a lackluster experience in terms of actual combat and strategy. at that price point I just don't see this being worth a buy. I'm sure this will be dead once the "ooOH shiny" wears off.

and don't even get me started on being peer to peer. its fate is pretty much sealed outside of bargain bin buy 1v1s. i can only compare this game to rocket league, but while rocket league has fun, strategy, and an overall polish this game is just another turd with a new name and a lightbolt sticker

Kind of surprised at the complaints. I can totally see this not clicking for everyone, but this feels like everything I've wanted in a 'combat' game and it makes me think of what a modernized Bushido Blade would be like. I was sold after 30 minutes of open beta. edit: I'd be hyped as gently caress to see 1v1s or 2v2s at Evo or some other big FGC tournament if UBI could figure out a good way to implement a good spectator mode. shoplifter fucked around with this message at 21:42 on Feb 10, 2017 |

Here's a summary of about 80% of this thread:quote:"This game is too expensive!" Hot take: Game is legit fun, has a high learning curve and skill ceiling, isn't too expensive, and despite all the constant bitching about P2P it seems most people haven't experienced many significant issues. Recreational outrage is in full swing, let's all get mad about something!
