Man i love zerker but holy hell does the multi enemy camera gently caress you more than any class in the game.

Also lol at how I get wrecked by people who realize that guard break works when im in the middle of a dodge animation.

Also I just figured out you can change genders too, so that's cool. Now to learn when feats actually work since I can do 4v4 on some maps (not dockworld though I get kicked from even 1 on 1s there sometimes, lol)

The game also needs more maps and content soon, which is coming apparently in 3 months...which is good

The beta contains only a smidgen of maps and armors and stuff. Many things will get added on release, so you can expect the game to already get more content in a few days rather than in three months.

I'm curious how long before the game gets a big steam discount though. It's a super fun game but 60 is a bit steep.

Do heavy attacks cause damage if unparried even if the block is in the right place? If not what do they do when blocked? What's the advantage to parrying?

Any videos I should go watch to gitgud a little more? I've only played Raider so far because BIG MAN AXE HURR suits my intelligence level nicely

You can also change skin colors :eng101: but for a few classes you can't see any skin!

It seems that despite people populating game modes, the game doesnt want me to play until 2pm every day, wont match make until then.

heavy attacks do caused chip damage if unparried, and parrying drains the enemies stamina a lot and for fast characters you can get a light attack or guard break off

The match making is done manually and the hourly workers for your region don't come on shift until then

I think they broke something with the matchmaker. I was getting consistently faster matches during the alpha, which obviously had less players.

The matchmaking is dumb and the UI is terribad, 12 clicks and mashing space key between matches is not good for getting people to keep playing your game

Conqueror does not take this chip damage(and I think Warlord doesn't either.).

There are supposed to be six maps for dominion and there are plenty of others that aren't used by dominion but rather by the other modes. Hell, the beta only has three of the dominion maps, that doesn't spell out majority. There are also far less than a majority of the gears available that'll be in retail.

lol don't be an rear end in a top hat. Nobody here is really that mad about anything, you're just salt baiting.

Saying "I don't like thing" does not indicate quivering rage on the other side of the screen. Strange but true.

Also there are people already double prestiging and poo poo, where do they get the tiiiime

If you noticed it in time hiding in the F2 menu, there is a champion boost for 2000 steel that gave a exp and item bonus for 3 days, which would last the entire beta.

Also gave a salvage bonus, which seemed odd since it means you want to stockpile your items and not salvage until you get a boost.

Wired Xbox 360 controllers are like the most standard and widely used PC controllers at this point. Xbone controllers feel more 'expensive', if that makes sense, but unless they've made a better model they suffer from having a battery compartment that can pop open from minor amounts of force and apparently suffer from massive stick drift after a lot of use. And there's no wired ones, just ones that have a usb cord packed in so you don't have to buy one separately.

Personally I hate Dual Shocks and use a Wii U Pro Controller with a wireless adapter for my PC :shrug: Wii U one is like the opposite of the Xbone one; extremely well designed mechanically but feels like a toy (which I personally am fine with)
