FOR HONOR DEDICATED SERVERS

FOR HONOR DEDICATED SERVERS

How come nobodys talkin about this?
This might make the game actually playable, you might even get into a 4vs4 without having to wait 20 minutes

You can't make a piece of shit faux-depth game better just by getting dedicated servers.

#UbisoftNever

>And during that process, we decided to do an analysis of the whole online infrastructure we have and compare it to other existing ones. And in the end, based on all the data we gathered … we decided to do the move and to migrate to a dedicated server technology, for many, many different reasons.

No fuckin shit, why didnt you faggots do it in the first place

Too little too late.

FH actually has some pretty nice depth to it.

FH was one of those games that was a great idea that was utterly killed by Ubisoft's incompetence. This day-and-age you NEED to have your online rock-solid on launch day.

all 7 remaining players rejoice

I reminds me of Titan Fall. They had a good launch for a new IP, but they held back and didn't put in all the features. They sell enough to justify a feature rich sequel or update, but the audience feels burned and may never come back.

They should add a tombstone somewhere in that roadmap

>They sell enough to justify a feature rich sequel or update, but the audience feels burned

Not only that, but Titanfall 2 got released in between two other shooter blockbusters, Battlefield 1 and Infinite Warfare/MW Remastered. I feel like it never stood a chance in regards to attachment rate in that regard.

they needed that shit at launch, why do they think anyone will give a shit now?

too little too late

Too little too late.

what, that's like ________ months late

Too little too late

Too little too late

this

I don't regret my purchase. It has a lot of problems but I had enough fun for it to have been worth 60 dollars. The main issue with the game is that everything about the combat is skewed to make defensive play vastly better than being aggressive which results in tedious as fuck fights. Parrying is WAY too fucking rewarding for how easy it is and the fact that every character has the same parry is utterly asinine and makes all heavy/slow characters suck ass because any moron can parry them 100% of the time.

i hate ubisoft as much as any other person, for honor in the core is a pretty great game that was shit on thanks to ubisoft incopetence. the game just need balance, stable servers, and more content. ubisoft is doing exactly that, now we just need to wait and see if this can resurect the game like they did with r6s

...

I dont want this to sound like shilling, but youve got to take into account players from Uplay

It doesn't help that many design changes like the paper mache titans and battery system alienated a lot of players who would probably be playing it to this day otherwise. The sandwiched release date and design changes really neutered the fanbase just in time for the community to be split into three different platforms

ok lets talk about it

>dedicated servers, finally
i'm actually genuinely surprised that they are going for it instead of just saying "fuck it" like the useless company they are

this is based off a game that's basically a mod of the u3 engine that's based off a mod on the hl2 engine thats based off a mod on the hl1 engine that stole their idea from a mod on the hl1 engine.

+1,000 players is actually quite impressive for that category that this game falls under.

How is that any kind of argument.
You can do this bullshit with literally any game that currently exists.
OMG, CS:GO is aczually a gaym that based off game CS:Source tahts on source engine thats based off CS1.6 thats on hl1 engine thats based off a mod cs1.5 , the whole fps thing is based of doom and im basically a absolute retard, hurrr

DEAD GAME

It wasn't just that the servers sucked, the pay2win microtransaction dynamics made it so only 1 game mode was playable, and it's just too boring for that.

>consolefags buy this broken boring shit for $60 by the millions and then shitpost about "SCAM CITIZEN" after being disconnected from every other game because they have nothing else to do and are mad a literal unfinished game is better and more functional than theirs

Lmao

too little, too late

Will it be revived and niche like R6S? I tried the beta and liked it but hated the netcode

Seriously. Fucking why. They had to be jews and skimp on standard multiplayer features in a multiplayer game. How do you fuck it up that badly.

Too late to save the game, should have had them from the start.

too little
too late

Okay I'll bite.

What the fuck is a "For Honor" ?

wow great now that the game is dead. i fucking hate ubisoft so much

mechanically it's just a really simplistic 3d fighting game

only it's visual execution was 'great idea'

a movie

The very definition of too little too late

Too little, too late. I was ready to go balls deep into this game but not being able to play with my brother without one of us getting DC'd completely killed it for me. That and the fucking Reddit fags with their deus vult meme

but i only play duels...

Too little too late.

>p2p benefits
Better pings to some players due to locations
It's free aside from the still required match making server.
>Server based benefits
Prevents cheating
Stable and consistent connection to the server
No need to deal with NAT and port issues

I wonder what new information they found. rmyt

It's almost as if someone high up thought about saving a few dollars originally. Now said retard probably moved onto another project, someone else is trying to save the dead userbase.

Dedicated servers will run the same or worse but it'll make all retards happy. It's literally purely PR placebo.

you have to go back

at least ther will be no more syncing after some fuck leaves

its funny because retards dont understand that your ping and therefore the whole game will be even worse with dedicated servers

Still better than Battleborn

It will prevent entire matches from crashing because one idiot disconnected, which was one of many significant problems with the game.

You obviously havent played the game.
Queue times are absolute horseshit.
If your NAT is red, your not going to finish 1/3 4vs4 matches.
The connection issues altogetger will be mostly eliminated.
You wont have to be constantly interrupted mid-fight because someone dced.

I mean, look at this guy.
Everyone know p2p is shit.
Everybody wanted it because of the issues it brought.
And this guy, this fuckin guy...
Ive lost words...

>if your nat is red

Stopped reading there. Fix your worthless internet.

>b-but I'm on campus!
>b-but I like to play military man!

Then go fuck yourself. You got yourself in that situation, play something else.

>play something else.
not him, but apparently this was exactly what most of the playerbase decided to do. Why do you think are they adding dedicated servers? For _fun?__

>fix your worthless internet

And theres the guy that comes into discussions where somebody has a problem with a game, he fuckin swoops in, and says "Buy a better computer lulz".

And what if ive told you, i have a great internet? I can download 10 mb/s, my upload speed is equal, 20-30 ping on almost everything?
But should i go ahead and contact my ISP that i need public IP and pay more, because of one fuckin game that just has shitty p2p and netcode?

How about no? How about you go fuck yourself you entitled cunt?

ded gaym

Too late and this is just so they can add more DLC/microtransanctions.

They didn't "resurrect" siege. Siege was growing in players since launch. For Honor has gone straight down since it released.

>play something else
That's probably why it's dead.

Fuck off, retard. You've done nothing but prove you are the kind of human garbage that has no idea how something like NAT or network jitter works.

>I can download at 10 durhudhurhuahr

Not a single thing you mentioned proves you have a good, stable connection that can send and receive information consistently and easily. Did you know your big, bad connection could actually be garbage because it transmit things in lots of uneven packets instead of a steady stream? Of course you didn't, because you are a retard that's happy with their service because "it's expensive" or some other dumb reasoning instead of knowing how it actually performs.

You shouldn't need to contact your isp to freeze your ip. That's something you can control through your router settings on practically any model router. While it's easy to shit on isps for things like jitter and shit speeds form the get-go, a large amount of connectivity issues are entirely fixable if the user would just google some basic shit regarding their model of router.

Forgot this game existed

because the game balance is still shit

> 10 mb/s

That's like worse then america bad.

The service i have is fuckin cheap you dumbfuck, i dont have a need to justify anything for myself. I am happy with my internet connection, because whatever i want to do with it, it works well, except for this one game, so fuck off.

Sadly even after opening all the ports necessary on router, the ports still remain blocked, thus i assume ISP is blocking it.

>it works well except when it doesn't

Oh. Ok.

who fucking cares?

That's not how ports work, lmao. Have you actually opened the ports? What did you do? Not even comcast "blocks ports".

Have they removed gear yet?

Sorry to break it to you but if your shit net doesn't work with this game then it doesn't work with fighting games, most rts games, emulators that do netplay... really pretty much everything that does p2p.

People aren't attacking you by shittalking your internet. You don't deserve to have a bad connection and it's an easy to thing to fix. It's either settings on your end or you get a new isp. "Cheap" or otherwise that doesn't justify shit service.

>I am happy with my internet connection
You're clearly not, though.

At least 1/5 games won't randomly drop after the host decides to leave and their migration crapware fails.
At least that NAT cancer and requirement to forward ports for an online game should go away too, if they do dedicated servers right
At least you should be able to group up with people all the time even if they have red/yellow NAT

Actual lag during gameplay wasn't really a problem, all the other network-related shit was.

Dedicated servers are literally the bare minimum of shit they need to add on. They also need to balance up the characters to make more of them worth using and rework large parts of the combat system to not be incredibly rewarding to easy defensive play, maybe also rework/add new maps so there aren't hazards you can get free kills from every 5 yards, and on top of it all they needed to do that 4 months ago before most people stopped giving a shit.

I mean, ive put the ports in like pic (the rest is on page 2) and the 0.100 is the adress of my pc.. didnt do shit.
turning UPnP on/off didnt do shit
Trying enabling DMZ didnt do shit.

Im open to suggestions, i couldnt get this shit to work

>how come no one is talking about this?
Game is dead him. This won't fix it. They've lost their player base due to retarded shit like this and it won't come back.

It's a fucking shame. I'm one of the people who held on to the game as long as I could until balance issues server problems no penalty for ragequit retarded and grindy leveling system forced everyone away. there was no one left but me. Such wasted fucking potential. How hard is it to do a large scale medieval combat sim and how do you fuck up such an airtight idea this badly.

The game itself is actually fun tho (Unless you get cornered by centurion).... Its a damn shame...
Or atleast i enjoyed it...

Dead game, don't care.

Depth?

Am I feinting or am I not feinting

That's the entirety of the fucking game

What kind of fuckin depth do you want.
You want Dark souls depth? Roll Roll Roll attack Roll Roll Roll?
Counter Strike? Shoot shoot shoot, pay respect to rng gods so that the bullets actually hit, shoot shoot?
The combat is fine

The last time I went on the game after a few month hiatus I got completely raped and didn't win a single match over the course of a few days.

Not that guy, but besides R6S and For Honor, the only Ubi games I ever bothered trying, I get connection issues out the ass, whereas on every single other online game, I've never had a single issue.

Shit, I've had a better online experience on my PS4 through wireless connection than I ever had with one of Ubisoft's shitty p2p games. Quit defending a shit company.

Because 95% of players already quit.

>you asked, we listened :^) :^) :^)
Yeah, let's fix the game after everyone already disregarded it.

I'd expect a fighting game to have some semblance of other fighting game mechanics like spacing, a movelist that is greater than ten moves, footsies, a non retarded throw system, etc

Instead what we received is a really shitty version of Soul Calibur with better graphics.

But.. spacing is important.... You have to know your range or youre gonna get shit on, you have to be aware of your surroudings...
And how would you like to make more moves?
Like, realisticly, unless we would make them shoot fireballs or do some howdoyoudoken shit, there is only so much moves that can be made.

Except you can't poke in the game against people who aren't retarded because getting parried on a light guarantees a free ass raping, and since you can't feint lights, throwing out lights to maintain spacing is a good way to guarantee your ass is gonna get grassed

As to moves, just follow Tekken/Soul Calibur and add directional + inputs to add more moves.

I guess this IS TOO FUCKING LATE NOW UBISHIT.
Game is foockin ded.

The mechanics are still fucking broken.

But this isnt Tekken.
Characters arent go going to pull out a dragon out of their ass.
They arent going to do endless whirlwind of death and destruction.
They arent going to teleport if you press your balls together + X + Left.
They are not going to jump up and keep themselves in the air by kicking opponent in head repeatively.

Why make the thing complex if you can only make somany moves with the weapons characters have.

too

Well yeah, I guess if you cherry pick the supernatural characters only you'll have some semblance of an argument.

Or alternatively you could pick the normal human beings on the roster to emulate and make a not terrible game.

I actually might come back. I liked this game a lot but the connection issues (and other games releasing at the time) tore me away.

But what do you want the moves to be dude?
Im not cherrypicking, last Tekken ive played was 3.
I dont even know the moves.

But what would the moves in For Honor be?
I guess some form of kicks or punches could be added, but thats about it...

And there are plenty moves that require certain movement to be performed.

Im not trying to just throw shit at you, i want you to tell me what would you add that would make sense.

Check IP & MAC binding and make sure you're actually bound to a specific IP. Then have your modem refresh. Port settings don't do anything if your ip is dynamic.

Way too late

They'd just be different attacks at different ranges and more importantly in this game, speeds. Light attacks in this game for each character with the exception of I think like two dudes (maybe the DLC characters do, I stopped playing before then) all come out at the same speeds which is just parry bait.

As it stands if you've played the game long enough you'll figure out the startup animations for everybody's attacks because there's only ~15 moves for every character.

If it's a light, you parry. If it's a heavy, you make the decision on whether it's a feint or an actual attack worth parrying. The fact that a parry guarantees so much shit in this game without any drawbacks than "lol it might be a feint" is a serious drag on the mechanics of the game to begin with.

I have set the 192.168.0.100 to my MAC. The only ÏP i can get is that one.

too late.

But attacks do come out at differend speeds. Overhead swings take longer than the ones to the side.

Why are you bringing up Dark Souls. That game is a piece of shit in PvP. Is it to make For Honor look good in comparison?

Also I don't play nor like CS:GO but even I know there's more going on in it than that. Finally the combat in For Honor has glaring and significant flaws, that's why they're redesigning it.

I even like the game, why do you have to aggravate other players over legitimate issues.

But there's no variation from attacks within a direction. If a guy is attacking on top, it's either a light or a heavy or a heavy feint.

The fact that they telegraph that the guy is in that guard and therefor attacking from that direction doesn't help either.
