It'll be interesting to see how For Honor does.. the game has completely exceeded my expectations but I think the learning curve is going to put people off, two of my friends were put off by it's difficulty and I've made a whole bunch of people rage quit on it. Game is incredible though, everything feels so meaty and satisfying, only criticism I have right now is the p2p system it uses.

Blu3_Berry3378d ago

Yeah the learning curve is indeed pretty high on this one. I appreciate it though for not going for the casuals crowd. I will be honest though, I found the game quite stressful due to having to guard and attack at 3 different poses and me and my friend could not get into it. We played the closed beta a few months ago and after about 3 or so matches we were worn out from all the stress. I don't see myself picking it up sadly. It is a great game and has tons of potential. The weight feels really good for the most part and the attacking feels Heavy. It's just not for me. I do hope it does well since it's not a generic open world sandbox that Ubisoft been doing lately. We need more risky IPs like these.

i'm sorry but i have no faith in the success to this game all due to how people behave online. people take winning way too seriously and rage quit way too often and then come up with poor excuses when called on it saying it was connection errors.

the game ran well for me, looks great and is indeed tactical but i think i will pass

Pandamobile3378d ago

So your deal breaker with this game was that people have been rage quitting in the beta? Never mind that developers will usually address things like that soon after launch if it turns out to be an actual problem.

I got a dude on my first game. Really stupid gamer

@panda

What noldy explains happened to me to. Good old fasion dominion. 4v4. Team mates die, and i have 3 v me. I take out 2 one with an execution, the other thrown off a cliff and the last guy leaves as im charging for him as a beserker and we all get booted.

Rhe game is set up to reward thr people who pay to win. And those same people dont know any tactic except for 2v1s. This game will not be getting the sales ubisoft is hoping for.

corroios3378d ago

Yeah . Having to much problems. Getting really hard players that already do moves that i dont know how

TheOptimist3378d ago (Edited 3378d ago )

It's pretty easy. I was spamming the direction of the mouse buttons and was able to block 99% of the attacks. It's a MOBA who's comabt is less varied and pretty easy. I felt bored and the 45% positive response opposes this article.

a clear pattern of gameplay emerged unfortunately, Fight until your 1 hit away from death then dodge roll, run and try to get health

gums0073377d ago

When health is low, run away...for honor!

ginsunuva3378d ago (Edited 3378d ago )

I might buy it now just because it has a steep learning curve.

I play games to improve, not to level up a meaningless number and unlock bullshit.

SlightlyRetarted3377d ago

I think they are hoping that For Honor gets some e-sports traction, so the learning curve and skill ceiling has to be pretty high to achieve that.

Still baffled by the fact that there's no good way to 1v1 against your friends

Eiyuuou3378d ago (Edited 3378d ago )

Huh? You just party up and start a custom game?

That's all there is to it.

isarai3378d ago

Everytime i try it says "Requirements not met" and wont let me start anything

Jojo19843378d ago

Love this game. Didnt find the learning curve to steep myself but my friend did rage quit on me because he just mashes the attack button which is a big no no if u play against a person that knows how to block and dodge half eay drcent. I would recomoend sticking to one soldier type til u get used to him then switching if u wana try somthing else. I got slaughtered tge first few matches with the orochi and now i rarely lose 1v1 with him.vThere are basically 4 different classes to choose from that play quite differently. Game is exactly as i hoped it would be.

alfcrippinjr3377d ago

playing this on the ps4 but there hardly anyone online playing it as the bots come on and help you
this is a bad start to a beta game
plus always on connection only
time to boycott them and show we do not want online only games
we want to play it offline also

its like they ran out of ideas and clone battlefield into knights
go to zone a,b,c,
they need to come up with better ideas

have to say the start of the game is wow but its going to be let down
with no offline play
hopefully there a story mode in the game

but again ubi soft is making EA look better

like with star-wars offline play which they gave to all of us

so why cant ubi-soft follow the same route and give us offline play
