What the heck did they do?!?! This game WAS awesome | Forums

I can answer what changed. The people who wanted to screw around and troll and just randomly mash buttons while the game was free to try in CBT / OBT are no longer there. People who remain now are people who actually want to get good and learn how to play their characters properly.

:P people who play now mostly actually know how to use their heroes and spent at least 30 mins staring at move set and going like- ohh okay cool this is cool i can use this to my advantage

What the **** are u smoking?

Im just wondering why ubisoft is not replying at all. The forum is FULL of threads about release version being screwed up. Do u think all these people a bad players all of a sudden?
If i dont do any statement at all as publisher then its clear to me they just want to sit it out. They wait a few days and hope it`ll settle down. My hope is it wont.

I bought the game after a fantastic experience in closed and open beta and i really start to regret it. It is simply a complete different feel of the game now.
As u would play a different game.

I think ubisoft show no guts. Theyve done the mistake before ( The Divison) and they havent learnt yet.

It used to be possible to switch guard direction while dodging, now it waits until the step is finished and then switches, leaving you vulnerable. Perhaps this is one of the things making the game feel clunky to people. It does to me, apparently I was dodging and changing blocks at the same time, never really thought about it until they stopped it working.

I'm sure it's intentional and I don't have a problem with it necessarily. What I do have a problem with is vague patch notes. Clear ones would prevent the need for threads like this.

I have noticed that I'm unable to move or block after someone lands an attack. It's really weird. I'm still loving the game and still smoking people, but every now and then my character just sits there, completely unresponsive.

This is one of my biggest problems with the game as well, I think it is a symptom of combinations and timings being off that they did not account for. Fluidity is so important in a game like this.

This didn't happen until this release, after all of the baddies complained about defense being too strong...

Well to me this game is just UNPLAYABLE with the servers, lags, delay, and the changes they have done after release. I mean i already got hit on the side when I switched my guard, at last moment. But the MOMENT i got hit, my guard was on the good side. This is pure madness

. Half of the parry / block fail cause of srveurs / clunky controls, etc .... you have the feeling to driven a ****ing trunk, this is pointless I've just done some games with bots and haha it was a totaly mess, GB workng after a botattack, dodge not working, guard not moving / blocking ..

This game felt so much better in the beta phases. I was hoping they would just fix all the errors and disconnects for game launch. Turns out, they screwed up the core gameplay instead of fixing network errors. Great team over at Ubisoft. False advertising, I purchased the beta For Honor, the release For Honor is bad.

I had a friend complaining about that too. After messing around in a duel I think hit stun from heavy attacks is more than it was.

Thats called frame advantage. Some attacks, usually very strong ones, leave you staggered for a while after they hit you, giving your opponent a few frames where he can execute actions and you cant. The same is true for some attacks when they are blocked - Wardens zone attacks leaves him open for a free GB when blocked for example.

I thought it was just me. The changing of guard/attack directions is what's really getting me. Taking too long or not taking effect before my next attack. Block isn't as bad. But it definitely feels way more "clunky" and less crisp and precise as I saw in closed and open betas. As for the move your nobushi is going into it is probably just hidden stance. On a xbox one controller it is down on the right thumbstick. I believe. Haven't played much since the betas yet. Not too impressed with the games finished product.
