The patch has been out for only half a day, and people are already complaining on everything.
I don't understand.
First everyone complains that the gear difference was to much and they couldn't start new characters without being destroyed.
Now they're crying because those 108+ geared people can no longer destroy a new character.
Hypocritical?
Also, if anyone watched the streams or read anything about the game they would know that the Devs made it easier for low geared players to compete with maxed out gear players by increasing the gear stats for lower level players(to even the playing field BECAUSE THATS WHAT EVERYONE ASKED FOR).
Now I see people complaining on centurion and shinobi, about how the kick from Centurion is undodgable even though I'm dodging and punishing them without a hitch.
And how Shinobi is to fast and the new mechanic about attacking/GB from a distance is to over powered. Even though I CGB/Parry that 90% of the time and punish the shinobi severely.
Why doesn't everyone just calm down, relax... It's new characters and new mechanics. You will not be parry gods and you will not stomp new characters as much as you believe you will and here's why.
You are fighting an all new character with different timing, different moves, different animations. Everything is new to you.
The person playing the new characters are used to your character because they are old characters, they know all the timing etc.
Before anyone tries to tell me they're overpowered, I will send yous all multiple videos of me killing and dodging those "Impossible to dodge and punish moves" you all seem to be complaining about.
Also, I've already said it but I will say it again. Your maxed out characters aren't as strong as they were before compared to low geared characters and here's why.
Devs gave the lower geared characters some help to compete with the maxed out geared players because US AS A PLAYER BASED ASKED FOR THAT.
They closed the gap between max and low level gear. THAT is why you are dying by the new characters that are low gear, THAT AND because they're all completely new to you.
That is all.
Sorry for the typos if there are any because I'm on my iPhone.
Also, Ubisoft. Thank you for the new season and the new gear setup. It shows you've been listening to the player base.
Cheers.
some people are probably complaining because it took a ton of steel to get their characters to 108 gear, and now their character who was spec'd for max attack is now -15% attack. or people spec'd for max defense are now -15% defense.
and keep in mind, it took over 9k steel to get one set of purples to 108
people with a couple items maxed, or a couple characters at 108, could easily have lost 50k+ of steel
and then there's people like me, for whom the game simply broke (at a technical, not gameplay/balance) standpoint, because our super rare hardware of an i7-7700 and 1080GTX were apparently not tested before patch release
Im not bothered by the gear at all im actually happy about it. Now Shinobi and Cent are just ridiculous. Cent shouldnt be able to spam his kick. That move alone should cost atleast half his stamina. Shinobi ranged gb/attack is crap. When he charges it it glows blue/red. You would think blue would mean a gb but its actually an attack. If its red its an attack. I wanna say this is a bug (i hope it is) but really either way it needs to be fixed.
i agree it feel those 2 new classe are a mix up of everything people were cry about in the forumOriginally Posted by Fenrirwolf24 Go to original post
Regarding the Centurion kick, you would actually want him to spam it because it's extremely easy to punish and very telegraphed.Originally Posted by Fenrirwolf24 Go to original post
If you have Xbox One I can show you how to do it. It's extremely easy.
Also on the shinobi GB/Attack at long range. That's also not that hard to counter. When the shinobi is charging(I know this will sound counter productive) but put some distance between yous. It will give you a major advantage against them by giving you more time to parry/CounterGuardBreak and punish them.
Again, I play Xbox one and I am willing to help anyone that is having trouble against these characters because I find them quite easy to counter.
I always see a lot of negativity in these threads but we all need to realize when it comes down to it. This is just a game and we should all get along and help eachother play it instead of mocking and insulting.
So if anyone would like help, feel free to ask me.
I have figured out Shinobi's range but what i said still stands. Seems like a bug or something with the charge. Im on xbox to so add me i guess. AoDaFenrisulfurOriginally Posted by DuhSavagePickle Go to original post
Thanks for providing positive feedback... As for the whiners any amount of logic and proof and nice guy support isn't going to make them satisfied. For Honor 2.0 has been designed to encourage more skill based play... they lost the casual players gear and now are upset the game they loved because it gave them ego boosts every time they won and got to use obscene emotes in victory is now gone. NOW they see themselves being decapitated, skewered and chopped to pieces...no hump thrusts...no ego boost...= Pouting...pouting leads to outbursts....which is today's society leads to the presidency...soooo... Yeah..guess they know better after all.Originally Posted by DuhSavagePickle Go to original post
The last thing anyone asked for were more characters that could spam unblockables. It's like the rule of cool is their design philosophy, and they can't comprehend balance. People waited this long for a Raider buff, and they didn't even address the fact that you do one mix-up+heavy and you're out of stamina completely. Meanwhile Warden, Warlord, LB and Cent can spam that **** for days.
What people wanted and asked for was a way to open up turtles. That's what we got. Those "Spammable" moves that you're talking about are extremely punishable.Originally Posted by Wolf-Heathen Go to original post
Unblockable spam is something that would have to be impossible to dodge and get looped in.
That's not what this is, it's just new to everyone.
Also, each character is made to play differently. The Raider is a very good character if played correctly. The problem is that to many people play him the wrong way.
I myself have found raiders that are amazing.
And the reason Raider runs out of stamina faster is because 1 heavy from him is extremely powerful.
The Warden and Warlord are very good characters, I do not deny it.
But Roman from Ubisoft has said they do not want to Nerf good characters anymore, they would rather increase the lower level ones.
I see a lot of people complaining, but truth be told it hasn't even been 1 day yet.Originally Posted by pure_energist Go to original post
They said this about Nobushi in the beta, and Orochi when the game first came out. But given time, everyone learned how to play against them.
Now look at how everyone talks to them.
I'm just trying to bring positivity back to the forums.
Also, if anyone still believes it's impossible to escape the kick from Cent or the long range attack from Shin.
I will be more that happy to send you footage of me doing the "impossible."
