I can't figure out why you'd want to do that instead of just a regular parry They mean the Shield Crush, the move you confirm after a parry, that completely drains your opponent's Stamina from 100% -> 0%.

That is basically 3/4th's health on assassin classes, and over half on the shugoki.

Can Ubi fix their poo poo? Jesus loving christ. I spend 2 minutes loading into a game and it goes right into end-game screen cause the match is finished. This has happened (to differing extremes) 3 times in a row. I either join during the last round or I join at game end. Oh, and during two other Elimination matches, I've been forcefully disconnected mid-game, both times when I was leader of the board. Bullshit.

But its hosed up so instead it just means "you have loot". You either have to ignore it or confirm all your loot every time you play. Hope you don't have OCD.

We've talked about it before, but lots of multiplayer games don't do sanity checking on the time remaining. It sucks and hopefully they'll patch it. Here's the thing though, you're really not supposed to quit the match every round and queue for a new game. If you find a good game, sit in that lobby for a few rounds? If you load in right as the game ends... stay for the next one? I don't see why that's so infuriating to people. You get free XP for doing nothing and a new round starts in like two minutes. Big friggin deal. It puts you into the game so that the next round will start with full players and not deal with the same issue. Either you have to have people wait longer between matches to find players, or you have to let people join mid-match, or you have to let people join at the end of matches, or some combination therein. There's no magic loving bullet solution dude. Think about it.

So how exactly do directional guard breaks work? Can you only throw people in the direction of your guard when you hit them, or can you quickly change it after making contact to throw in whatever direction you want?

It's infuriating if you've played the round with a team that is absolutely awful and you don't feel like sticking it out for another 15 minutes knowing you've got no chance. I just have a 4v4 Elim match. I killed my opponent relatively quickly and ran over to help my Lawmaker teammate out. We fight for about 2 seconds against the enemy, and then he disappears without me knowing. I got wrecked the instant the Raider went revenge, and post-game when I ask him why he abandoned me, he says he went to get health. It's retarded plays like that that really get me butthurt. If he just stayed and fought the guy with me, we'd have demolished him without even breaking a sweat.

You should be able to throw in whatever direction you want after a successful guardbreak+throw. You can throw in any direction around you, not just the 3 stance directions.

We were talking about the game throwing you into a match right as the match ends. What does that have to do with playing a round with a team and having them be awful? I guess you're saying you join when there's 1 match left, and you decide from that 1 match that they're all terrible? May have just been a fluke round dude. Also aren't teams scrambled between rounds? If you're in a party they probably aren't, so I guess it depends. But still, not sure that fully applies to the scenario we were discussing there. I mean, lovely teammates suck, yeah. But that seems neither here nor there. I think you misunderstood me?

The game session and group behavior really comes off like Payday 2's clusterfuck where for whatever reason one guy will have upstream connectivity problems with the game host, causing the whole thing to poo poo the bed and not limiting itself to the one guy not being able to join. Just brings the whole thing down most of the time with everyone crashing to the lobby if not the desktop. On the other hand, the group trouble is usually solved by having someone else be the group leader, whereas the in-game shenanigans really don't have any real fix. I mean it's a fighting game so you can't just have everything being negotiated through a server farm in Dallas because you'd definitely have problems with how the game feels (think a laggy Diablo session, you swing and it 'connects' against their health bar after a delay, also you get hit 3 times) as it tries to keep everyone on the same tick despite a big ol' spread of pings and packet loss figures. Leave it to Ubi to be like "yeah we can make this work" when it's basically been a total poo poo show every other time it's been tried on a scale bigger than 1v1. Of all companies you would tap to get it right, Ubisoft and their novel Uplay take on social gaming are, ehhhhhh not really on a list of companies I'd have chosen. When it works it's a hell of a fun game though, so I live in hope.

I check the scoreboards. And why are you so invested in whether I stick around in a lobby I personally think is poo poo as opposed to backing to main menu and trying anew? When I join through a round and get to spectate my teammates getting nonstop grabbed and aren't able to even tech out of them, it's pretty clear they're poo poo teammates. They'll die fast and I'll just end up getting group attacked. The 2nd paragraph wasn't a reply to you, so I didn't misunderstand you. I got what you mean. But I'm not gonna sit in lobby with shitters. I'd rather go play in a lobby where teams are evenly matched.

I can't figure out why you'd want to do that instead of just a regular parry The superior block thing doesn't seem all that great, but if you press your guard break button as you parry someone normally, you break their face with your shield immediately. This deals a catastrophic amount of stamina damage (I've never seen anyone not get exhausted) and can be followed by a quick heavy attack that always seems to come from your left. It's good.

Or you can do light attack for a guaranteed bit of damage. Your choice. I'm still trying to figure out when to use the Startup Superior Block on Warlord Lights and when just to go ham with a straight parry. I desperately wish we had Trainable bots. This game's practice mode sucks.

Youre correct and reclaimer is thinking of forward+jump while locked on. It has armor so it's excellent against nobushi in particular. Speaking of, conquerors lack of a forward attack is really bringing me down on the class. Especially combined with its lack of options. I think giving it a guard break counter attack would fill the main hole in their defense as well as giving them something unique. Right now i feel like im playing a handicapped warlord.

I think he's pretty exceptional at using distance to his advantage. Not necessarily as good as the samurai spear lady but it's funny as hell to just hop in and bop someone on the top of their dome before they get their guard up. He doesn't really seem to have a really flowing style like the warden but he really shines if you exercise patience and git gud with parrying.

Are lag-switches relatively easy to make and employ ingame, cause I'm coming across an awful lot of Prestige >2 who seem to conveniently lag at the most inopportune times for myself. Like out of guard breaks, or when they're hammering blows down on me that I'm blocking yet they still somehow seem to get through. Had a Kensei earlier today who kept teleporting out of guard breaks and landing hits on me that I didn't even see coming. I was also just in a match now against an Orochi player who got a little salty that I owned him as another lower Prestige'd Orochi, and he started lagging a little. Then when I died and was in spectator mode, the game sped up really fast like it was running at 140 frames a second, it was super strange. Like someone had recorded a clip of things happening and sped it up by 2x.
