loving this way more than i realized! did have a couple dominion matches that loaded up then froze at the team vs team screen but I could hear the game going and see the score, only way out was alt/cntl/del and then another match loaded up with white square artifacts everywhere, but that was only about 3 issues out of about 30 matches so not bad at all for an alpha!

Loving the game and the artwork deserves a hell of an honourable mention!
But getting 3v1 a lot, not sure how to combat that though on your side. I'd like to see any kind of level system that I can see on other players and they can see mine too.
The current heroes are fantastic, personally a berserker is my favourite, but more would be amazing, and to take a free route rather than paid dlc's.
I'd say my main gameplay changing concern is the Samurai are incredibly hard to block and counter, i'm not sure if that's intentional to an extent or?

I have ranted a little on social media when mad but have always ended on the fact its a great idea and i'm excited to see what the game is like in the beta's coming up to launch and then of course release! Will be buying I should think!

Good job guys, really.

Very dissapointed, Samurai rule all..the new Samurai attacks way too fast and does too much damage. Since first beta the Butt cherek ladder slide has not been adressed..So if UBI wants to not hear out the community no thanks..This was heavly complained about since FIRST TEST!

I'm happily surprised how deep the combat system is. I look forward to learning how best to use each class.

Amazingly stable for an alpha.

1) Colourblind options please, it's finally becoming common in triple A titles and the 10% population is truely grateful for it.
2) Runs well, I'm getting around 120fps, but even with vsync off I'm still getting super motion sick. Move camera out slightly and make it have a dead zone of no movement instead of moving with every tiny halfstep to the side. A wider fov would be nice as well. Too much jittery screen-wide panning motion is leading to blergh.
3) Learn To Play videos are fantastic, but uninteruptible. No key press, mouse button, or controller button will stop them.
4) Sometimes the AI goes super hard and just destroys all 4 players. Othertimes they die after doing nothing but left or right attacks.

Quite happy the combat is more than just matching up/right/left but the amount of grinding for loot looks disapointing. And the classes are no where near equivalent yet, not that they need to be balanced so much as they all need strengths that are actually strong. As it stands half the available classes have no tangible benefit over the other three.

Now that you've had a chance to sink you teeth into the game, we'd love to hear your initial impressions! Please don't hesitate to explain your choice further below!

Very smooth sailing thus far. Feels more like Beta, game starts quick, AIs are pretty good and with more players this should be a rocking game pretty soon. Keep it up!

I'm liking this game so far, but come on guys you have a laundry list of things to fix that are horribly broken.

First off is the horrible p2p connection that makes me want to drop this game right now if you don't move to dedicated servers.
Secondly i'm getting one shot in the back at full health on a even level with whoever just smacked me.
Thirdly I lost two straight matches of 1v1 to a samurai who used revenge during the fight to ensure victory several times.
You really need to balance what these characters can do in 1v1 or 2v2, this isn't 4v4 where all abilities are out there. Because right now as it stands your duels are broken if it's not just about the swordsmanship and skil.

Sounds like someone isn't very good at the game. Nobody can one shot you in the back at full health? unless using environment hazards. Secondly, inviting you to the alpha then coming on here with the attitude you have, consider yourself lucky dude.

It's still in alpha. NOT beta. Issues like the ladder thing, are trivial right now my friend.

The second samurai is far far to fast. Need a little balancing. Can deal with it being fast. But the ammount of times they can swing before tiring is insane. I like the game. Seems like the battlefields are kinda small. Feels a little moba ish to me. Not really a fan of mobas. The combat and feel of walking around in armor fighting as a knight is spot on. The swings are a bit slow. There is no way anyone takes taht long to swing a sowrd. The damn thing doesnt wigh 50lbs.

Loving the gameplay but inviting friends in gam is challanginging we're having to leave the game and enter Uplay to accept requests It really needs to be all in game!
