What's the point of practicing in For Honor? | Forums

[Rain-Dragon]

I mean, whenever we start on these kind of games we most of the time ask for tips or look up guides on Youtube, the famous "How to not suck at....", but are those actually useful? Because, you practice on lvl3 bots, at some point you start going well, then you get all confident and decides; "I'm trying multiplayer now!", first match, you get smashed until you die, you get ganged up by the whole enemy team, and when you finally get in a 1v1 situation, the opponent spam light attack, and even if you defend they all it already took half your Hp, you try and parry, light attack the enemy and it parries too, and starts spamming again 'till you die.

There's no point in practicing in this game, because most of the players only use the same thing, again and again, until you die. I've got in three matches where I died by a Raider who used his charge or gb charge a three times in a row until I died. Tell me, why practicing if you can just spam your attacks and it works? Before the "git gud" comments, I'm not a newbie, been playing the game for a while, 4 rep, Pk main (not a gb 3 stab or side attack spammer) and almost the whole time I end up winning 3v1 situations, but then a Raider starts charging me, a side attacking Kensei, or just Centurion and Gladiator using their unblockable attacks for ever, with almost infinite stamina. Even if you counter them, it's annoying, it will just end up making more and more players abandon the game, until the game finally dies. It's almost impossible to find a ranked these days, and I'm pretty sure we all know that the fault is on those kind of players.

Sorry but this post made no sense at all, on so many levels.

"It makes no sense to practice.... because you rarely get to 1v1"
"It makes no sense to practice.... because people mostly spam the same attacks"
"It makes no sense to practice.... because people use annoying techniques"

Geez, do you even logic, bro?

There is no point, don't waste your time on this **** game.

A Level 0 Berserker Bot set to spam their infinite combo with infinite stamina and no cooldown is a great way to get used to blocking light spam online.

I think the TTK is to short or global damage is too high. the game lends itself to extremes between the heavy char coming in late to a team fight swinging a top heavy and revenge being a tad too strong.
Team fights are too chaotic for how fast you die. I'm not saying turn fights into a double the length or make an extreme change, but the game is already at times too hard to see what is going on.
Many times an enemy in the distance will eclipse appear further than what they are. Ledging also needs to be tweaked slightly as its to automated.

But theres too many variables in team fights for how short the the ttk is. and with some sumurai classes and wu lin, it becomes almost unbearable. than you run outta stamina.... and its like most people ive recommended this game to quit within 2 or 3 days. and to stick it out at times is like torture. lastly that GB counter window needs to be tweaked a little.
