Should I (and all the others, who ask the same question) buy the game? | Forums

[l3OoOM]

Hello everyone.

Haven't bought the game yet, played the open beta, really enjoyed it.
But, as I check this forum daily, watching streams and gameplay videos on the internet, it haven't convinced me to buy the game, no matter how much fun I had in the beta.
Way too much bugs, imbalance, connection issues, lack of content, cheaters... (pretty bad things) I have noticed. In the alpha and in the betas it was okay to have all, except cheaters.
Since it was testing.

Yea yea, there is fun as well.

After all mentioned and all that wasn't (anything that will come up in your minds that covers the question), please let me and the others know, give us the answer.
The best would be a more detailed answer. Not just a "yes" or a "no".
Helpful advice needed.

Please.

This question still stands with update: v1.05 / 1.05.1 ON

if you played the beta, and it worked fine for you, then its a tossup as to whether you will feel like the full game is a bait and switch scam or it will function more or less properly.

i wouldnt buy a hard copy anywhere that wont let you return an open game

Yes. Is not perfect, but is a lot of fun. The story mod on realistic is very fun to play and have a great story behind it. The pvp has its problems with p2p, but the errors seems to be less common. I already have 30h of game play, and I am enjoying the game

I enjoyed it in open beta aswell and i bought it, now i wish i didn't. Aside from the p2p (i myself am experiencing quite a bit of rollback*) the game has micro transactions for a 60 euro triple a title this is unacceptable by my standards. Not only does the game crash alot on my pc(might be my pc but i highly doubt it) but the balancing of classes is far from perfect.


* Rollback is when you hit a player and on your screen at first it shows as a hit but then it rolls back and the other player actually blocked it , same goes for hits when someone seemingly out of range slides towards you and hits you anyway(after you saw the attack clearly mis on your screen). And yes i have nat green and have no connection problems and play the game at a steady 60 fps.

Thank you very much for the detailed answers.

I really liked them, will think about it. By far my decision seems to be waiting. Let them fill the holes... If the system continues to be as it is now (skill based, gear vs same gear stat matchups), there won't be any significant disadvantages for anyone who starts to play the game few weeks or even months after the release.


Keep the comments/advices coming.
Those are more than welcome.

Sincerely don't buy it. The connectivity issue is just cancer, there is no game that you don't get some sort of problem. People are incredibly toxic as well and there is no way to report abusing or hackers.
Matchmaking it is broken, you will see plenty of fight when there are 6 players being 4v2+2 bot which you could have damn do it 3v3. Or I even saw plenty of 4v1+3bot. It is ridicolous. Level 1 vs level 20. It is just stupid.

Don't buy it. It was a mistake to pre-order early and than don't cancel after I discovered was p2p. I gave it the possibility of doubt but now I am just a bitter customer. They don't even contact you when you ask for refund on customer support.

DUDE THIS IS A LIE LOL the game is running SO GOOD mostlikely its always 4v4 problems beacuse of 8 man ingame, try the duel mode u WONT have any issues there man and btw the 4v4 game mode is just for fun / leveling fighting they cant do anything against players that are going to 4v1 you. if that happens, there are 3 objective not only 1.

And btw a Matchmaking that is like ok you are prestige 3 so i give u a prestige 2+ enemy how stupid would that be? EVERYONE can level up by beeing afk against bots.


I Remember other games were unplayable at the Release and Servers were down for HOURS. Same to Rainbow Six btw, Crashes Error weeks long. Awesomegame needs alot of work but alot of potential.

It's not a lie. It is my experience. I have a fiber connection and cannot believe that I couldn't even add my friends, who knows why (p2p). We had to restart the game serval time to try to get together.

Than people that you where in a team with, when you are in a group of 3, you cannot invite because they cannot enter. There is not even a spectating mode.
I bugged out so much that some time when I entered a game, my character didn't even spawn. So people where fighting 3v4.
Another time, the game just got sutck on matchmaking for a good 10 min. I had alt+f4.
Another time, the game was constantly syncronisying and it was another 10 minutes of wait.

On 1v1 people that get killed where disconnecting so that they couldn't register a loss. Than you have to fight a bot at full health when you where probably chipped some by the previous fight.
I found that not fun because
1) I am not here to play vs a bot
2) The guy that left didn't get any punishment, actually it reward him
3) I am wasting time vs a matchmake that obviously wasn't right

Overwatch didn't and still don't have this kind of problem. And you have 6v6. Chivalry you don't get this kind of problem and you have BIG FIGHTS with a lot of people.

So it is p2p system that's completely crap.

I am super disappointed by the whole issue and mechanic of multiplayer of the game. The basic core of the game is good, but the dynamics all around make it impossible for me to enjoy it.

If you had fun in the beta i don't really understand why you even ponder over buying it. I had a blast in all of the betas and even more so now on live. Sure there's some DC's and yea, sometimes people get butthurt and leave so you get a bot instead, but overall i would give the game a 9 out of 10. I'm actually getting back some respect for Ubi thanks to this game. And that should say a lot.
