I really enjoyed the game and in my opinion was pretty good at it even if i had a lot of lag due to my laptops poor performace. Since it started, I played everyday almost full day, from morning to night, trying things and getting better at the game. At this point the game is very good and I'm confident the developers will make it even better until the final product.
The customization is good, ok, interesting but I still feel like I don't have all the options I can get. Would it be possible for customization to apply layers for every part of the body and to be able to resize every shape/ symbol you want to apply and to choose exactly where to put it in that part(for example in the left upper corner of the right arm). I think this would bring the customization to a more general use. Also, it would be nice if you would be able to apply tattoos or symbol in your weapon and shield, not just your armour.
The graphics and the overall design of the game(not on the menus) are fabulous, beautiful, very detailed and it brings you in a certain state. The maps are well made and organized to be balanced for both teams and i really like that each one have a specific theme based on the type of class they "represent"(vikings, samurais, knights maps). I personally like the samurais and knights map, but the vikings one not that much beacuse it seems a bit narrow like there is not that much space.
Even though many are saying that are some characters that are OP, i don't think so. I personally played more with Kensei and really enjoyed its playstyle and managed to beat even 3 players at once all by myself with him. I think it only depends on your play style and there should not be made any modifications in matter of characters combat styles. The progression seems useless for now, at least I didn't notice any change for me while I was getting more XP points and leveling up. I got to level 18 with 2 points of .... i dont remeber how they were called and it didn't feel like I had more power, skill, speed or anything in battle. The steel is very hard to get, I understand that we will be able to get steel mostly from the weekly/daily missions when completed.
The modes for now are ok, even though they can be very repetitive and like others have said there needs to be some changes, like trying to "bring to life" gamemodes. In Dominion, a small thing: I can hear all your screams in those minions, but they scream only when they spawn. It would be nice if when we are breaking or capping B or decapping they would still scream or something like that to seems more like a war-like environment. There where also some good ideas about adding other modes and it would be nice if you, the developers would consider if it would be possible to have like open-world with missions or a sandbox gameplay, free for all, or game modes which are taking longer but they are intense and more complex, with more than 5 v 5 battles.
The combat system is amazing. Very nicely done developers! I like the revenge beacuse it comes in handy most of the times and the overall fighting depends on the game mode you are currently playing. For example, in dominion you dont care that much about fighting and taking your time beacuse you have to capture bases, help team mates and kill minions and the 1 v 1 battles are usually pretty fast in comparison to duels and brawls where you take your time to block, dodge every atack and prepare to strike your enemy.
There days where amazing, pretty exhausting due to the fact i played a lot, almost non-stop the game in search for ideas to improve and test the system your created. The truth is even if you're holding a mouse, a joystick or a controller, you feel like you're actually holding a weapong in your hands and it is realy exhausting to make those moves and even the executions, as awesome as they are.
So, For Honor Team, thank you for the honor to take part of the alpha test. It was a great experience and I can't wait to see the beta test and the final game and to play it. Just realized I got to get my hands on a PS4 or Xbox beacuse the PC does not compare to what you can do with a controller. Hopefully you'll see every good idea that the players posted on this forum and try to implement them in the game if it is possible.
Till next time,
