I'll agree that that amount of money for what you are getting is garbage. The feats are pretty damn helpful though.

It is a terrible money grab for a game that is honestly not much more than a novel mechanic that they somehow were able to convince people to make into an entire game.

Because the game sucks and is a typical Ubisoft microtransaction piece of shite that will be completely dead within 60 days.

Oh and I made the thread for the closed beta btw (and you posted in it multiple times derp), so yeah I played shite. LINK

Release day Twitch viewers when every big streamer is on is your go to for thinking it won't be dead in 60 days?

Are you familiar with Twitch at all? Any semi-decently big game gets those numbers at launch good or bad, The Division broke Twitch records opening day.

I think for honor may stay around a bit but that picture is silly. No Man's Sky was highly viewed also.

The game just dropped!

Probably depends on your definition of "dead".

It won't be in the same twitch stratosphere as it is right now.

i always took "dead" in online multiplayer games to mean there are so few people playing it affects ur ability to find matches

MIGHT get it if I get my tax return this week, only because Tarkov hasn't had a patch in 3 weeks and I'm bored.

I thought the beta was really fun in short bursts but I could see myself getting burnt out on it easily, kinda like with Battlefront

yeah, i think it only shines with party playing 2v2 or 4v4

the combat is fricking amazing tho.

the feints and parries really bring out a style of fighting that i cant find anywhere besides fighting games, but i hate the aspect of memorizing long combos in those games

Sick Kensei Play

Inability to pick up and play plus no dedicated servers might kill it.

I say that never having touched the game though.

Oh it completely will. P2p is just stupid. The game was one of the most frustrating things I've ever played until I got the hang of it. Casual gamers won't stick with it or even buy it. Hell im not going to buy it

it will be interesting to see the sales. the game looks so cool that a lot of casuals will buy it just because of that tho.if they dont put in the effort to learn to play tho i agree many will get frustrated and quit

i understand Ubisoft hate because people have been burned by them a lot. but i was playing Rainbow 6 last night while waiting for For Honor. it's still a great game despite its flaws

one of the top links on /r/games right now is
For Honor is the best fighter i've ever played

the game is gonna sell a lot of units before people realize its all the flaws i noticed in 50 hours of betas and tech tests. i still love the game despite its flaws and thats the only reason i'm buying it. if i get 50 hours of fun and have to deal with an hour of frustration thats worth it to me

I liked the beta when I could play it, but 3/5 times I tried to play I couldn't connect. I don't trust Ubisoft enough to give them my money

Some networking guru made a post about why the For Honor P2P2P networking is the future of gaming and superior to dedicated servers. Of course i dont expect any responses besides "p2p sucks"
