Limited combat feels handicapped, only 3 ways to attack | Forums

Should be upwards slashes, and back edge cuts, sorry single edged blade katana and odachi. that would make a total of 6 ways to attack, and back edge cuts also with the Eroupean longsword, and or any other double edged blades, sorry single edged blade katana and odachi.

And you are going to block in 6 different directions? No. This is a game's "simiplicity" is a saving grace. You don't have this much freedom in really any other fighting games (High/Low blocks).

Oh yeah? Check out Mordhau.

The only thing they need to add is more movesets. Three directional blocking is fine but adding more movesets would add more skill and a much better more rewarding feel after you see a sick animation that you know makes your opponent think 'O crap i didn't know he could do that... now what should i do?' That is when you can really punish.

Please add more movesets UBI. Feinting gets old and rarley are they used in matches except duels and brawls anyway. I think that if they simply added a parry shield/shoulder bash heavy or light combo for every player (maybe except assassins) that did mild to moderate damage, that would make some lesser used classes more enjoyable. Just IMO

If all characters played like the raider, the game would be great. Risk is the most important pillar of gameplay in this game.

Raider is well balanced, except his guard change speed. All other characters should play like him in terms of risk/reward.

I disagree if every character played like the raider, the game would lose interest very quickly. They need to add more to the game not less. The raider is almost unusable with his current movesets, he has to rely on feinting too much. I love the game but if every character had as many useful moves as the raider, i wouldn't play. Ive tried to play as him, can't do it. i know some can but ill stick with my warlord and zerker.

Hehe yeah, but the raider is perfect balanced and the warlord is not. The berserker is a decent character too. Compared to the top 5 characters, the raider is weak. But the top 5 are broken because they are too safe to play. I am not saying all characters should have the raider moveset - but the same risk/reward balance. Sure as a warlord (my main) it would suck to not be able to just tank and headbutt through everything. But for the overall gameplay it would be much much better.

I agree and also have you been watching tru3talent talk about raider?
He literally said the same thing as you in a stream today.

Yeah, I was the one writing it in chat and he responded. I also play the raider a lot, because you have to actually play the whole game with that character
