For Honor Costs 2.5 Years/$700+ to 100%

techspot.com/news/68597-want-unlock-everything-honor-youll-need-play-game.html
>Bystander007 calculated that unlocking all the outfits, executions, effects, emotes, and ornaments for each character in For Honor costs 91,500 Steel, the in-game currency. With 12 characters available, unlocking everything would cost just under 1.1 million Steel, which would require around 7.32 of the $100 Steel packs. “So Ubisoft has valued their in-game unlocks within the base game at a $732 over-charge of the original $60-100 spent on the game,”


>If you want to unlock everything without opening your (virtual) wallet, get ready for a long haul. Casual players who play 1-2 hours 5-7 days a week will never reach this goal [1.1 million Steel]. Completing Orders/half-Contracts will get you roughly 1000 Steel, another roughly 200 for the matches you played. So 1200 a day is a good estimated gain for casual players. That’s 915 days. Roughly 2.51 years.

>Even if you were somehow able to play the game for 16 hours every day, it would take around 11 months to earn 1.1 million Steel.
Ubisoft is approaching original iM@S levels of jewry here.

this is like that episode of black mirror with the porn and exercise bikes

I forgot this game existed

Who.
Fucking.
Cares?

there will be a big patch before season 2 in a few weeks, probably adding more microtransactions making it higher than $732

How is this Jewry? You pick a char you like, unlock the stuff you want. Its not forceing you to pay a dime. Would you rather a game where you unlock all the shit in a day?

where are the Ubisoft shills saying this was amazing and P2P actually worked?

>game literally has over 2 years of content
>that's now a bad thing

I want nu/v/ to leave

You don't have to buy everything or even SPEND a dime faggot!

I don't even own the damn game.

>microtransactions in full priced games

How is this acceptable ever

game becomes pay to win once you reach rep 3 with any hero, so yea some faggots buy crates to gear asap, when it takes you weeks of farming otherwise

The game is fun as fuck, but man do I feel guilty after reading this shit

>I enabled this

>You didn't buy For Money

>content

and game journalists wonder why so many pc people pirate games

Why are gamers so obsessive and entitled that they want to have ALL the additional content for free? You don't need any of the unlockables to do well...

It has over 2 years of shitty grinding.

the developers responded to the numerous articles about For Honor's steel grind. They say it is working as intended and was deliberately designed to be like a mobile game where you only use 1 or 2 characters and get some items for only those characters.

I guess there's this crazy idea that when you buy a game you should get all of the content it comes with. Entitled I know.

Do they still not run dedicated servers? If that's the case, why the fuck do they add microtransactions on top of a pricetag? Can't even justify server costs.

because is not a F2P game like a shitty moba like the dev compared it to. Forcing people to either pay or farm for months/years is inexcusable

It's P2P only. They are using the money from brazilian kids and rich neckbeards to finish the next AC game.

Do you think people in WoW do every single quest, collect every single weapon, every single pet, every single mount, every single pet-battle pet, clear every single raid, clear every single mob-type, clear every single battleground, complete every single reputation? The only difference is For Honor lets you buy content to make it EASIER.

You absolutely do not need 100% of the content. Stick with your best character and progress with him. Jesus fuck are you guys dense.

Even better. I bought it, refunded it, and still get to keep it.

I can't pay real money to blizz for better gear score dumbass

back to /r/ddit.

PSN refund when?

and yet it would feel shorter to me than having to slog through any random 100+ hour jrpg

love that show

>I want this content i don't actually need without spending money or generally working towards it, give it to me

>cosmetic shit

whatever

>cosmetic shit
>with gameplay changing elements

OMG i love that show! You guys seen Dr Who? That show awesome too!

Ubisoft games suck, I got Watch Dogs 2 for free and uninstalled it after 30 minutes. I can't believe that there are people on this site that actually like this kind of trash.

For Honor's big problem is Gear matters in 4v4 modes. Revenge stacking gear is so overpowered that it fundamentally breaks the game. Ubisoft have already said they are nerfing it but it has been fucking weeks since then, and as they fuddle with their thumbs in their ass the game loses even more players.

This. For Honor like many Ubishit games has a amazing concept. But everything after that is just mediocre and worse. This company pretty much survives off getting idiots to buy into its initial idea.

epic dude
simply epic

>if you don't want to spend 2 years getting everything, then you obviously would prefer if it could all be unlocked in a day

Are you retarded? It's entirely possible for the devs to strike a reasonable balance.

I actually quite enjoy For Honor, the sad part is there's about a hundred things they could have done to make it better.
And I'm sure none of them will be changed in the future because they'll just drop it once it stops making them money and move on to something else.

I'm more pissed the 2 characters STILL AREN'T PLAYABLE
AND THE FUCKING NETWORKING

Id be alittle less hard on FH specifically but the fucking awful servers are just a no no. Its funny ill see people defend them with.
>You only lag out of 1/10 games.

Do people know how bad that is? Its super super rare to lag out of most well put together games so 10% of games is just alot. Also when i play its usually more then that. Especially since if the host RQs the game never stabilizes and always falls apart.

>WAAAAH Y DEY GIVING ME SOOOOO MUCH CONTENT WAAAAAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Cry me a river bitch.

>hats
>content

>this content doesn't count as content because I don't like it

And to think I actually defended gamers when people accused you of being entitled.....

Cosmetics ≠ content

It's a grindy game with an obnoxious community, boring meta, and busted gear modes. Hard to tell myself I'm having fun when I play it. Warden was pretty baller though.

Are these people legitimately resorting to Biodrone style defense of a game or is this some kind of new meta-trolling?

Oh cool, now do the same for Overwatch.
Or would that be unfair because it's hip to hate Ubisoft and Blizzard can do no wrong?

dat clippan

your mom's pussy was pretty baller

not "having" to isn't the point. are you sure you're smart enough to be allowed your own computer time?

No one in here has said anything about Overwatch but you're more than welcome to do some number crunching at have at it. I've never even played Overwatch but I'm willing to assume it's at least slightly more enjoyable than For Honor.

I know no one said anything about Overwatch, but since it relies on the RNG mechanic on the boxes you get after each level up and chances of getting duplicates is enormous

Someone actually did the same with Overwatch

The time to unlock everything was much shorter. Also I don't know how For Honor's system works but Overwatch's is RNG with systems in place to mitigate the RNG (IE each crate you open without a legendary in it increases the chances of your next crate having a legendary up to 100%).

>skinner box is content

>being so fucking autistic you absolutely MUST buy every single piece of in-game DLC or unlockables available
I can't understand people that cry about all the outfits in DOA (when most people only like 1 or 2 outfits on 1 or 2 girls anyway) or all the DLC that was available for Railworks (when it's only special-interest stuff for mega-autists interested in particular train models or real world locations)

THE VAST MAJORITY OF IT IS COSMETIC
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY IT
THIS IS THE OPTIMAL WAY TO DO DLC
WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING?

I can make a shitty browser game that has years of content. Something like cookie clicker but stretched to infinity with grind.

Guess I'm about to become the most important game maker ever since I'm gonna make a free game that has over 90 years of "content" too. Or you can give me $1000 to unlock it all.

Are people literally complaining about grinding when Sup Forums sucks off monster hunter?

What characters aren't playable?

It doesn't count as content and never did. Nobody thinks the hat updates for TF2 are meaningful content, its mindless bullshit for idiots with lose wallets or are entertained by skinner's boxes.

That's... not how that works.

How much are you getting paid?

I have all the characters unlocked after the tutorial so I literally don't care.

Monster Hunter doesn't offer you micro-transactions to circumvent the grind.

pseudo rng is a thing friend. Most games have it instead of true rng as it makes people feel better.

Like six or seven cents a post, my dude.
If companies are going to Jew hard and charge for DLC (to help maintain servers or whatever dumb reason) then keep it fucking cosmetic and pay2notgrind instead of pay2win

The 2 season charactera that were supposed to come out

doesn't get more jewish than that.

Yes you definitely can. Buy token, sell it for gold via the auction house, buy raid carry from a top guild. This is all 100% supported by blizzard, even encouraged.

Ok? You still have to grind with the most shittiest of drop rates in all of gaming. I guess it's okay when Nintendo does it

I don't think it's been 3 months yet. Are they planned to come out now?

Sup Forums is literally r3dd!t now.

And mexicans.

fucking cancer

That is exactly how it works. I don't know the exact numbers, but there is a maximum number of crates you can open without a legendary before the game will just automatically give you one.

It does not excuse the shitty gacha system, but plenty of people had all or most of the unlocks without paying or no-lifing a year after release.

>Nintendo
Nice bait

Micro transactions should be fucking illegal in a 60 dollar game.

>shittiest of drop rates in all of gaming
Not even close, you fucking child. The grind can be bad in MonHan if the desire sensor is getting you or if you're having bad luck, but it's no where near "the worst in all of gaming".

Are the executions / effects cosmetic?
Then who cares it's just dumb hat shit for dumb people to throw away money on.

better yet
>what are lootboxes

>effects
Purely cosmetic.
>executions
Eh, some are faster or slower than others. What's more is some confirm the kill super fast while others don't until near the end of the animation. Slower animations apparently recover more health too.
>confirming the kill
You can interrupt an execution. If you're fast enough, this will leave their target in a "down but not out" state where they can be picked up by a teammate.

You must be a literal child if you think having multiple rolls at a tent of a percent drop is anywhere near the worst.

Ubisoft saw that Siege actually worked and players kept playing, thought it was the renown system that did it, and then completely fucked it up.

The inevitably second siege is going to be horrible.

>Waaaahh, I have to play the game, Waaaah

People autistic enough to actually care about getting every collectible peice of irrelevant shit will genuinely love having to grind out 2.5 years worth of gameplay.

>1 hour a day
of course it's gonna take 2 and a half years.
That's like complaining 100 IP a day on league isn't enough to buy all the champions in a week.

the point of for honor is to find characters that best suit you and play them, you can access all of them in practice modes so there's 0 excuse to not have an idea of who you think you'll be playing the most.

that said, for honor is garbage with shit servers even though it's a fucking p2p game which doesn't make sense to me but whatever

I felt bad when that black from get out had his waifu violated.

user...

Because we remeber when you paid 39.99 for a 100hr replay value game, and bought the expansion that gave us another 40 hrs for 19.99 12 months later.

Not 59.99 for a 25hr game with 5hrs removed that now costs an extra 19.99, with a mediocre 10 hr 24.99 expansion 6 months after that should have been in the final fucking game

This meme is getting annoying even by Sup Forums standards..

which ep was that?
i stopped watching after ep 3

what meme? they announced this today in a live stream

>Casual players who play 1-2 hours 5-7 days a week
>just realize I'm not even casual.

People are complaining about retarded things like dlc microtransactions and are even saying its p2w instead of complaining about real issues like balance matchmaking and lack of major updates.

Its the dlc drop like siege.

>entitled
this word has lost all meaning altogether

Why is there an assumption that you are entitled to cosmetics?

Simple. For example, try this simple experiment:

Demand the developers to release tools that make it possible to fully customize the cosmetics you want for your character. Afterall, how is it fair that people literally pay hundreds of dollars for a single recolor DLC? Then hear out why companies refuse to do this.

There you go.

>playing the game normally is now considered "grinding"

But you do you fucking idiot, you just have to earn it.

>Waste 2.5 years to earn imaginary items that could have easily been given to you immediately. Or at least they could have programmed it that you unlock everything in just a few days instead.

user...

Yes?
I don´t need a grindy skinnerbox built in to enjoy a game.

You're right actually. I'm very sorry.
