Zaphod42 posted:Its a slight nerf for something Zerker and Conqueror can do that they shouldn't have been able to. If you block them, they currently can get a guaranteed guardbreak. That wasn't intended for any classes. Sorry, but this is incorrect. If you block them (specifically a light attack), YOU get a free guardbreak. Not the other way around. This is why Berserker was a particularly bad hero given his role as a harasser. It's a buff.

Perestroika posted:I'm fairly certain you can cancel the charge-up into a guardbreak, yeah. That has a way of catching people off guard and allows you to do the whole heavy-bash-mixup thing. Warden's being able to hit-hit-shouldercharge mixup-hit-hit until he gets tired is really stupid because you can't really break it. When someone good pulls this off there's literally nothing you can do until you lose half your bar to it and he runs low on stamina.

I mean have you guys got $60 worth of fun out of it compared to something like... Dark Souls 3, or Overwatch? (Yes it's its' own genre, but am I going to get more then 10, 20 hours of gameplay out of it, or is this going to peter out like Titanfall 2)

I bought it and sunk 4 hours in the game yesterday and hardly experienced even 30% of the game. It's a great buy at $60. I don't know where the lack of content thing comes from, there's a lot of content and it's all pretty good. hey welcome to the show! posted:Here is my game mode pecking order. Same. Elimination modes are the worst in every game ever.

It's difficult to remember all the different classes strengths and weaknesses and playing one repeatedly is boring. You have to be a pretty big marvel bs capcome guy (girls don't play these sorts of games) to get 100 bucks with of enjoyment out of it.

Even though I've already put like 30+ hours into the various alphas and betas, I'm still having plenty of fun and expect to be playing it for a good while longer. Particularly with the new characters coming in down the line. For comparison, I paid some ~50$ for Battlefield 1, and on the whole I'd say I'm getting about equal amounts of fun out of both those games.

The queueing system in this game is so arbitrary. You can't queue for both 1v1 and 2v2 at once, but if you want to play 4v4 you can't pick Elimination over Skirmish (the "priority" system is not really working out for me, as I consistently get Skirmish matches when I'd like Elimination instead). Is it so difficult to have a "tick a box for every mode you want to queue for" option? I don't see any upside to the current system, it's just breaking down the player base for the sake of it.

Maybe longer if the post release content is good and not outrageously expensive.

No point buying the season pass so early, but later down the line when they release new classes, if you like the direction they're taking the game and appreciate the effort they're putting into making new and fun classes, I'd definitely recommend getting it. I know I probably will. I bought both S1 and S2 passes for Rainbow Six and it was a drat good purchase.

Besides, it's the first week. Also I definitely got my $60 from Titanfall 2.

I got hella burned on titanfall 2 beat the campaign in 6 hours then kept losing in the multiplayer, as matchmaking paired me up with people way better then me. Ended up getting like 8 hours playtime. Super lame. The only fighting games I've played are dark souls and smash bros but everyone compares this to dark souls so I thought I'd see what thread regulars have to say.

My issue with the 4 v 4 gamemodes are it's whichever team has the brains to stick together so they don't get picked off 1 by 1. I don't find it fun to get ganged up on by 4 buff shirtless men and beat on Though some people do swing that way

The learning curve on this game is basically a mountain, you kind of have to be prepared to work to be good at this game. It's not something you can really pick up and play and be competitive right away. While the systems themselves are pretty simple, learning everyone's movesets and reacting in time if your reactions aren't great will take a lot of effort on your end. E: Really wish it showed enemy health after death. Sometimes I can't keep track and it'd be nice to know how well I did - this is standard in most multiplayer games these days.

after playing every character I can't see any sane reason to choose Lawbringer over most of them, he needs his poo poo moveset retooled badly. even the Raider has a better running tackle.

MinibarMatchman posted:after playing every character I can't see any sane reason to choose Lawbringer over most of them, he needs his poo poo moveset retooled badly. even the Raider has a better running tackle. So the problem with Lawbringer is that like 80% of his moveset is a trap.Trying to use most of it will get you killed. Basically he has his top light, his shove, guardbreak into heavy, and parry into light as actual moves and everything else is so slow you will never ever hit anyone with it and will be parried and then murdered. I mean like half of his moves require you to do a parry to start them, but then are so slow that the target will recover and parry them himself. Like you will absolutely never hit anyone with Blind Justice or Impaling Riposte, ever. Basically the way to play Lawbringer is: never try to combo, never use any of your parry ripostes other than the light one, never use long arm. If there's a cliff, cliff them, otherwise just keep shoving or throwing them into walls and then hitting them with top heavies until you run out of stamina.

When I play Lawbringer I just chill and wait, then Parry and top heavy, if they dodge it I don't bother doing it again and just focus on charge breaks and getting 1 attack off.

cock hero flux posted:So the problem with Lawbringer is that like 80% of his moveset is a trap.Trying to use most of it will get you killed. so, he's a character that was designed by a loving moron. It would be cool if half his moveset wasn't useless and wasn't super-passive; if you want to just shove people, might as well pick Warden or another big guy. Right now when going up against scrappy characters like any Samurai or Peacemaker, the toolset isn't that great and the weapon range doesn't make up for the slow speed. Honestly when your skillset boils down to "your combos are bad and so are your parries and only use like 3 things" there's something wrong there. Playing defensively is more fun with the two shieldbros who can go Full Defense in a pinch.

It was that when you both GB at the 'same' time, one person will always win. In beta, you both cancelled each other out and did a stumble, which they are reintegrating.

Right now if you and your opponent decide to guard break at the same time, one of you will be guard broken. They're changing it so it'll be like the betas where it will tech since that's the expected behavior.
