I'm getting paid while I play this tonight.
I have an overnight at work and all I need to do is make sure that the people im watching don't die in there sleep or steal food from the kitchen. My paperwork takes like 1 hour tops to finish.

I will be rolling with the vikings and spending way too much time making emblems.

Yeah if you want some Steel then really just get Gold edition because you'll get a nice pot of Steel anyway with it. Buying Steel straight up is a bad value for basically anyone, and that's without touching the issue of it being sketch to have it sold separately anyway.

I don't think the Gold Edition comes with Steel? Unless it's in the boost pack.

I was pretty sure I saw that it did but idk because Ubisoft seems to have an allergic reaction to clearly defining purchasing options so I can't find it right now.

You don't even need to worry about unlocking characters since you can still play as characters you haven't "recruited". The entire cash for steel mechanic is fine with me since you can ignore it entirely. Of course you'd better be given the game already costs 60 bucks.

I mean compare this to Evolve which launched with pretty much the worst payment system imaginable.

It comes with that special pro status for awhile at least doesn't it? That probably earns you back even more steel.

Hell, the tutorial gave you enough steel to unlock everyone in the beta. I think it is going to be like Siege, where unlocking characters is not hard at all.

Looks like it's just on a paysite which is good.

I have to say though I'm not super worried about cheats in this game. I mean stuff like esps and tracelines are basically useless since unlike FPSes there's not some super small TTK, you can see the locations of nearby enemeis anyways and you still have to like, actually fight.

And stuff like infinite health and stamina are also right out since you can see the health and stamina of enemies.

The guardbreak and autoblock worry me more though. Because that's probably hard to distinguish from just being a good player. Though it doesn't actually work if you're in the middle of an attack or animation, and after a whiffed attack or parry you are guaranteed a guardbreak.

So it's not completely insurmountable like an aimbot. Super super lovely nonetheless, but I don't feel like it's that gamebreaking compared to poo poo in Rainbow Six or Battlefront.

But how many were they fighting against? If the native fighters were the deciding factor, I'd expect victory to go to whomever had more.

Point & Clickbait posted:


For Honor, Ubisoft’s gritty and violent game of medieval duels, has been a wild success this weekend in the open beta as three million eager players logged in and then were immediately booted due to latency and replaced by robots.

“This is everything we hoped for,” insisted an Ubisoft spokesperson. “This is actually what the game was intended to be all along.”

“If you review our marketing material you will see clearly that we make reference to ‘the iconic duels between samurai, vikings and knights, some of whom are played by robots’. Nothing that has happened this weekend deviates from that.”

“The latency issues have been caused by the fact that the game is so realistic that our code is actually constantly travelling back in time to the correct era, to check that everything is still historically accurate. We refuse to compromise on this commitment to authenticity.”

Ubisoft’s official in-house historian Perry Rhodes confirmed the historical accuracy of legions of robotic vikings and samurai, suggesting there was “no evidence that real-life vikings weren’t robots”.

“It would be incredibly short-sighted to rule out the possibility that ancient warriors teleported laggily around the battlefield, missed wildly with all of their weapon swings, then were disconnected and forced to fight robots,” confirmed Rhodes.

“We’re absolutely committed to realising that historical vision and we hope gamers will join us.”

The first 2 combos from the Lawbringer combo list are wrong, I've tested them against a lv.0 Bot and the input order shown in the list is false. The first combo is actually (R1, R2, R1) instead of (R2, R1, R1) and the second combo that ends with an unblockable attack is (R1, R2, R2) instead of (R2, R2, R1). The third combo is listed correctly and I can't currently tell if the fourth is working or not due to more difficult inputs.

if only there was some sort of beta where lawbringer bugs could have been foun.... ohhhhh
