Anybody else jumped back into For Honor since the dedicated servers went live? It's definitely a lot more stable, not perfect by any means, but now I'm only disconnecting every tenth game instead of every fucking match. The matchmaking isn't complete wank anymore either and feels a lot more fair.

no defensive meta is fucking heaven

i stopped playing when it was looking close to death and more or less forgot about it
hows it doing now? enjoyed it a fair bit when people werent turtling too hard

still need to fix some characters though, some are just too good compared to others. Shamans and kenseis are god tier while valkyrie...

I like the game but it pisses me off to no end
I eneded up giving up on if for my own sanity

>The matchmaking isn't complete wank anymore either and feels a lot more fair.
Meanwhile I get matched against rep 130 as rep 20

A lot better. Still has a few glaring balance issues such as Shaman being OP as fuck, but it's got a healthy 8K dedicated playerbase on PC, the matchmaking ensures skill levels are mostly the same so less aggravating stomps unlike on launch, and connections are much more stable. Gear stats were neutered into irrelevance and it's got ranked now too.

Playerbase has its stable number, same as before on PC. Pretty normal for games like this.

Is Orochi still the most picked character because hes a pain in the ass to deal with?

Rep just means time played, not skill. They can be playing for 500+ hours and still be garbage.

nah they all do the same thing, top light or zonal, predictable once you're used to fighting them

the game seems to still have a active community, but PC players are the saltiest mother fuckers and forced the need for servers cause of their constant, "unplug ethernet cable as soon as i get hit" mentality.

consoles didnt have this fucking problem cause nobody would shit the bed and disconnect from the game as soon as they ate shit, but god damn was the NEED to provide servers on PC so strong.

Nah the hot picks right now are Shaman, Peacekeeper and Kensei. Warden was rebalanced, everybody else is in a good spot besides I think Conqueror.

Did they ever fix Warlord?

Sell me the game pls, was looking into maybe getting it.

Orochi is the bottom of the barrel right now.

nerfed his range when pushing people off, still pretty good at doing it though

Sounds good, I only really played Lawbringer, is he still good?

lawbringer isn't one of the best character atm, but if you're good at parrying then the damage he can dish out is insane

feints and parrying are a must to make him work. He is pretty gimped when it comes to dealing with anyone who can atleast parry cause all his shit is slow and i feel hes one of the characters that needs a look at.

3D brawler with a Deadliest Warrior roster of characters. Had a really rough start but Youbesoft is dedicating to the game like Siege with constant improvements. A lot of people see dedicated servers as the biggest turning point in quality.

I u ironically enjoyed what little I managed to actually play this game.
I picked conqueror cos bommy knockers are fucking rad, but every match was a disconnect or some server bullshit.
Even 1v1 a bot I'd disconnect somehow or a server wouldn't be found.
I feel like if I picked it up now, people would be so torturously good at the game cos they have stuck with it, that it'd suck for me.
I'm hoping that it's a free weekend kinda thing, that pulls in a shitload of new players, so I can start again with other scrubs.
Instead of getting absolutely slaughtered cos I can only pull off one or two moves.
Have they made conqueror good yet? They never could do enough damage.

Where is dedicated servers for consoles though?

Later this month I think.

conqueror is really good atm, got a huge buff in the recent update. In terms of the matchmaking, it should match people of around your skill level. But there will no doubt be more free weekends in the future.

Awesome! That's good to hear!
I really enjoyed the aesthetic and the gameplay, even though I suck at fighting games and qtes. So basically suck at this game.
I'ma crank it back up. Cheers user!

WHY DID IT TAKE THEM FIVE FUCKING SEASONS TO INCLUDE A SIMPLE FUCKING DEDICATED SERVERS THIS FUCKING SHIT PISSES ME OFF THEY SHOULD HAVE PUT THEM IN WHEN PEOPLE DEMANDED FOR DEDICATED SERVERS IN SEASON ONE GODDAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

np

>always played Kensei
>have to master the game to do good
>now every shitters will jump on him
I'm kinda glad that's he's good now, but winning as the underdog is the best feeling

>fixing an issue that can damage the whole game should be fixed in a month

I think they started working on the dedicated servers around season 3, but it just took them ages to get everything sorted. I agree that they should have had it from the start, every other i played had connection issues, especially in 4v4

What did they change?

I believe they said if they wanted to include dedicated servers on launch, they'd have had to shut the game down for two or three months as they changed around all the underlying systems because the game relied on a sort of zoned P2P system where you weren't synced to enemies unless they were a few meters away which was meant to be the BlazBlue tier RAG FREE ONRINE that worked terribly.

How's Berserker?

Imagine what it would look like if Doomguy picks up this game and plays as a lawbringer.

>doomguy now wearing the lawbringer armor takes on the title as doombringer
>looks at his poleaxe during a 4vs4 match and just grips it with pure anger and hatred
>nobushi runs up and tries to attack doombringer
>doombringer grabs her stick and snaps it in half and shoves his poleaxe up her ass and exits through her head
>warlord runs up to hit him
>doombringer swings his poleaxe with the dead bitch on it at the warlord and breaks his shield
>he jumps on the warlord and rips his arms off and beats the warlord to death
>centurion runs at him to try to spam attack him
>doombringer grabs the centurion and breaks all of his bones in his body and rips his helmet off and bashes the centurion face in then rips his leg off and roman kicks him with his own leg until it is a bloody mess
>shugoki runs at him and gives him a death hug
>doombringer grabs him instead and literally hugs him hard enough that it decapitates the fatass in half as guts is now all over the doombringer
>he picks his poleaxe up and rips the bitch off his poleaxe which is now covered in blood and guts
>he's just getting started
>doombringer spots a conqueror
>they both join in bashing people's faces in as a peacekeeper gets wet from seeing the doombringer
>warden hides in the corner like a little bitch and cries while orochi in the distance sees the slaughter and commits seppuku

Autism

Berzerker got buffed, hes pretty good rn. His top finisher is unblockable, and his feints have heavy armor.

they've given characters tools to open defensive players up, they cant just sit there and wait for attacks. Parries have been heavily nerfed so attacking is now the best option.

It's not that good in duels but useful in teamfights.

Imagine if you took a break and went outside for a bit.

>no weird greentext.

The dedicated servers are already out ? I thought they were releasing a bit later this month.

It's like changing the tires while driving etc.
The game should have been RELEASED with dedicated servers.
Fighting Games usually use p2p and they probably thought 1v1 would be the main focus. 1v1 is absolute garbage in that game though, even pro players abandoned it.

It always Lawbringer players

yeah came out yesterday on pc. dont know when its coming out on console though

>The virgin Lawbringer
>The chad Gladiator

>blayers blay bideo bames bifferent bon beecee

The Virginiator
The Chadbringer gladia

>gladia

Holy fuck my phone is fucking retarted

what a fucking joke this game is.
It wasn't just all the absolute fucking garbage in the game, or the p2p, the gameplay itself was just fucking shit. I was criminally bored after two play sessions.

What a load of shit. the lead designer, and I'm trying to be constructive here...should kill himself.

I disagree, the game is fun.

>It's a rep 30 lawbringer In a no rep/level 1 rep game episode

Why Is this common?

I dunno man. Maybe this has something to do with it?

A Rep 30 Lawbringer is still a Lawbringer. What's he gonna do, stare at me menacingly?

Because your lawbringer's bitch?

>your father is pic related
>your sitting on your chair browsing anime boards and watching hentai shows when he breaks down your door with his poleaxe
>your lawdaddy then swings his poleaxe and destroys your shit computer and proceeds to tear down your anime posters and grabs your waifu pillow and rips it in half as well crushes all of your my little ponie figurines with his fists
>he then grabs you by the neck and grips it hard as he drags your fatass out of your now destroyed room and drags you into outside
>he proceeds to drag your ass to the nearest cathedral and bust down the doors with his mighty kick
>he grabs you by the shoulders and forcefully shoves you right into one of the benches and forces you to sit the fuck down
>he grabs the biggest fucking bible there is in the whole cathedral and slams the bible right onto your fatass lap then he slaps you behind your head to make you bend your head down into a praying position
>he stars glaringly at you as he then proceeds to pray to god with great determination
>you silently cry to yourself

He won't just stare at you menacingly, he will do it while he is walking towards you with a noticeable bulge hardening up in his armor.

I don't like the game because it has samurai and women in it, what can I do to damage its reputation?

>tfw no devout knight father

Be a facebook normie and post "People still play this game?" everywhere. Variations like " I can't believe people still play this game" are allowed but not encouraged

Lawbringer isn't gay though, the gladiator is obviously the gay one since most roman fags were notoriously known for open homosexuality and gay sex.

Also spam
>JUST
Whenever the game gets mentioned, no matter the context.

The chad Gladiator fucks anything with a pulse and shames the twinks he fudgepacks.

parries are shit now

He isn't a chad, he's flamboyant gladiator

the chad gladiator vs the virgin centurion

You're not guaranteed to be guard broken after a parry anymore

can't gb off a parry anymore.

Exactly, a chad. He's the kind of man who wears ridiculous leapord hides and stabs you in the foot for two damage repeatedly to make you tilt, and intentionally whiffs his lunging attack just to punch you in the face while calling you his bitch.

>spam attacks and gay shit is now considered chad

I never though I would see the day but here I am witnessing a whole new level of shitposting

Welcome to the new world, friend.

Are classes still fucked and the fastest classes do poison/bleed damage?

I dropped the game last week
they've ruined warden way to much, he's got no tools anymore now that GB are impossible after parries and I cant be bothered to play anyone else

I fucking played since release, and its a damn shame

>tfw console pleb
does it still have that disruptive "reconnecting to match" message every couple minutes?

Don’t tell me you only played warden

they just made conqueror a better warlord

nah but over 90% of the time I did
did play gladiator a bit, I do have the knights unlocked but none are over rep 1 and I have none of the samurai or the vikings unlocked

His parries are comparatively strong due to double side lights, doe.

The game has like near 20 characters and your pissed over 1?

Wasnt Ubisoft in the wrong when they said “players only tend to play only 1 or 2 characters”

>you will never have your mettle tested on the field of battle

life truly is nothing but suffering

and none of those interest me

and all you can do is those sidelights, a guy just needs to turtle a bit and warden is useless, even the SB is trash now

As opposed to only being able to GB after a parry?
Turtle would still win.

you could bait people at least to get parries, now you get a double side light, basically no fucking damage

Wha?
You can still bait.
You just don't get a gb AFTER a successful bait.
And comparatively the side light damage is high.

Am I going to have to buy the season pass to play as the new classes?

goodluck winning anyone who barely knows what he's doing though

he's got no openers
his heavies are useless
shoulderbash is shit now

Is kensai still shit? I've not played since Cent came out

nah he's on the borderline of being broken now

ah fuck yeah

if you play the game enough you wont have too, earning steel is pretty easy, season pass not required

When are they adding a pirate

Oh so you're just a shitter, got it. Go play Viking's if Warden is to hard for you.

Spartan first

bro thats why I quit, I dont want to play anyone else, warden is the fucking coolest cunt in the game, the rest cant compete

Why does the Egyptian look like a nignog?

Did the devs finally give Warden thrusting attacks?

So then stop being a shitter, Warden is fine you're just refusing to deal with changes.

but warden is legitimately one of the worst characters in the game

he is now

while i like it, it didnt change anything about the hero tiers. It made them more extreme.

Those heroes that were good in the previous meta are even better now.
Characters that were ok in the previous meta now suffer due to not even beeing able to get anything out of parries.

Lawbringer suffered quite a bit from this, hes got no way of opening a turtle and his punish relies mostly on parries.
Now the only thing that is a worthwhile punish is a light parry

Are lawfags or kniggers as a whole the worst mains in for honor?
