Hello Folks, have not been around here for a few months.

So, how is this game going? Is the Def Meta fixed? Is Parry nerfed? Are the new class OP as Cent and Shinobi were at start?

Cheers

I don't think they've implemented the def meta fix yet.

However the new characters seem to be quite balanced. A lot more than cent and shin were.

Game is going as usual.
Def meta isn't fixed yet. There was PTS with changes but they didn't introduce that into live one.
Parry is still where it was.
HL is not OP. He seems balanced.
Gladiator - I'm waiting to see.

From the Xbox 1 Duel perspective...

Defensive meta is still very profitable with only an attempted nerf to the parry system that seems only to affect the Highlanders.
The new classes are fairly balanced, at least better than the season 2 ones which SOMEHOW still need work.
Better bots introduce to game modes.
Chip damage increases.

Any ETA for game balance?. Because you say, for instance, that HL is balanced now. But since Def meta is still here, will he be when it will be fixed?

Absolute trash unfortunately. Not worthing even 30 euros...

New season brought only op chars. You cant even dodge or roll out against Highlander lol ) Enjoy this crap

The game is fun regardless of the issues. My chief complaint will always be the loading times/match length. I did some quick math, and out of the ~175 hours I have on the game since release, around 60-70 of those were spent in loading screens. And about 90 hours of actual PVP playtime. So it's for every 1.33 hours of PVP gameplay I have, I also have an hour of loading. I'd be interested in seeing if others experience similar numbers. I'd assume so.

EDIT: And I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the connection issues. But, everyone knows that and sort of just deals with it.

We've released parts of the def meta update, but are still testing out some others and will be releasing it gradually over the course of future updates. Parry is one of the changes we're holding off on until we can find the best way to implement it.

The new classes seem to be quite good so far. But they've only been out for 2 days now (a bit over 50 hours now) so there's still time for solid feedback to start coming in.

Also, welcome back!

Centurion is the same if not better then release date. They really don't listen to the player base. but hey what do i know i only had 4 friends i know stop playing this game because of the centurion. lol

I've had 2 friend stop playing pointing fingers at the centurion. As for myself, I felt so burned out by him in season 2 that I now play about once or twice a week and instantly quit any game including a centurion. I know it's toxic and I dont care. I will keep doing so for as long as Ubisoft refuse to nerf him to the ground.
