It seems like the age of honorable Brawls is dying. I loved brawl because there was more room to fight and opponents had honor. It's a sign of respect to let a person have a fair fight. Gank fests aren't fair. Lately, there has been no honor. My teammates repeatedly run over to my fight and I disengage and spam sorry so the other team knows I have honor, but inevitably the next round the other side ganks me. In a game called For Honor. Where did all the honor go?
Its 2v2, you want a 1v1 go duel. If I go into brawl I want a team fight without gear score, the only place I can have that, and I am not going to pretend we were put into a space where we are kept apart from the other pair. It is a very selfish thing to expect people who want a team fight, knowing that if they had wanted a 1v1 they would have gone to duel, to play by your imaginary made up honour code.
Or maybe if you actually 2v2 instead of 1v1 + 1v1 it would be considered fair.
Its 2 completely different playstyles and each bring their own sort of fun.
Also you fight FOR honor, not WITH honor. Dying on the battlefield brings no honor.
One thing is for certain, when they come out with Ranked mode, you can say goodbye to any sort of Honor.

Again, I want a team fight with no gear score, the only place I can get that is brawl. You want a 1v1, you can also get this in duel which was made for that purpose,I'll go on playing a 2v2 the way it was designed to be played, 2v2 where your aim is for you and your partner to walk out alive leaving the other two dead. You owe your partner more than you owe the people you are trying to kill.
You want to talk about honour, it is not honourable to allow your teammate to get his head cut off, it is not honourable to allow your teammate to die when you could have prevented it. Take your imaginary honour code to duel and have your 1v1 there.
I generally like to play the way you describe but if it's obvious no one else does I just adapt, there isn't really rules set in stone on how it's suppose to be done. Just go with the flow.Originally Posted by SummOfSam Go to original post
Lol, it takes quite a bit of skill to survive in skirmish, actually. Because if it's the gank fest you say it is, well then yeah going a whole skirmish match with only 2 deaths would take a great sense of awareness, as well as the calm reflexes needed to survive if you get out numbered.Originally Posted by SummOfSam Go to original post
Kind of like it is in most games where teams are involved. The more skilled players, capable of coordinating attacks will fair far better.
Such a strange concept.
So is rage quitting honourable then?Originally Posted by SummOfSam Go to original post
You have to understand first and foremost, that playing 2 x 1vs1 Duels in Brawl is nothing more than your personal preference. There is no honour code, nothing in the game rules, nothing in the game mechanics or the scoring system or in the tutorials or in the story mode that dictates people should be honourable, quite the opposite.
This is a personal choice of yours, and other people who like to do the same. When you fight other people who don't make this personal choice, where is your respect for that? Why are you trying to force a Duel onto a person who queued up for a Brawl, in a TEAM of TWO. The weight of evidence is against you when it comes to the suggestion that this mode was designed for honourable duelling. It was not, it is not.
You are no more entitled to force people to Duel in Brawl than I am to tell you that your favourite colour has to be blue because it's my favourite colour.
What I do is I stop playing and let the enemy kill my ganking teammate. Once teammate ganker is dead, I can have an honorable fight with the enemy. If the other team tries to gank me, I just quit. There's no penalty for quitting so theres no reason not to do it.Originally Posted by Antonioj26 Go to original post
