You're going to play as best faction, right /v/?
>>341963381
I'm not buying it until they remove the sjw bait that is female knights.
>>341963381
If by best faction you mean Vikings then yes
>>341964554
this
the combat looks also really boring desu
it´s so slow and you can almost hear the game searching for animations
it looks even more choreographed then assassins creed
also the story apparently being abut "muh female goddess of war tricks the stupid men into fighting each other because women are so much smarter then men" also kills all interested for it
>>341964554
Did Mount & blade trigger you this hard?
>>341964916
Close second, but no, friend.
>>341966127
Yes
I'm consistent with my bullshit, unlike some people.
>>341963381
I could swear this game is among the most under hyped titles to hit /v/ of all places. Does anyone even still want this game at this point?
Sure am.
I find vikings boring in general and knights aren't fun unless they're zealots.
>>341967165
I don't think /v/ likes fun. A modern multiplayer arcade-like objective based game like this has been a long time coming. Did you sign up for the next testing they're doing?
>>341963381what game is this
>>341967608
For Honor, bud.
Release date Feb 14th, 2017.
>>341967165
It looks pretty fun, but I guarantee that shitposters will spam false flagging "marketing" threads in an attempt to kill and future discussion of this game. Mark my words.
>>341963381
Why would I go against my cultural heritage and not fight as the people that made me dream as a child and heavily influenced my culture?
Knights for life.
However, I do agree with other anons, the combat system looks extremely boring and repetitive. What I saw in the gameplay video didn't appeal to me at all.
I'll probably wait for sime ultimate edition or whatever.
>>341967165
I kinda want it
but then, this is /v/. you can't have a discussion for AAA games without shiposters shouting "shills" and "cucks" all over the thread
>>341967878
I played the Alpha. I could possibly confirm or set at ease some of your questions about the combat to let you know if it's worth even bothering about.
>>341964554
this. It seems like every game nowadays has the option to play as a strong independent wyman.
Even if it would be historically inaccurate.
>>341968305

>historical accuracy
>fantasy game
>>341968305
In games with armor customization, I prefer to play women.
Not everything has to be part of an agenda.
>>341963381
Im going to buy it when Ubisoft isnt involved in development
>>341968995
not him but
look at the plot it´s literally how superior women are compared to men
nothing but feminist propaganda
I'm curious to see how the whole faction thing plays out in multiplayer. Will it be like... M.A.G.? I think it was? where you start a multiplayer character as part of a specific faction and you're that faction for quite some time? How will the playerbase work if it's divided heavily uneven? Are they just randomized each match? What if a faction has no heroes you enjoy playing/are good at? Will that not destroy the entire competitive side of it?
How in the fuck could this actually work?
>Ubisoft

>>341969193
You pick what generic aesthetic you want and you play as them. There are minor bonuses/penalties to play one over another.
Thats it, this is Ubisoft, there isnt any depth or thought given to anything. Its a day 1 cash cow dropped on release.
You can expect the entire thing to be riddled with performance, network and matchmaking issues that render playing the game a total fucking nightmare.

We can't just play as a cute girl because you're getting your knickers in a twist about tumblr boogeymen.
I'm gonna be playing Bannerlord and Mordhau, which hopefully will come soon. Does For Honor stand up against them and have a place? It certainly looks really good, probably the best looking of the 3. But will I still be playing it after a year?
>>341969131
Yeah, System Shock 2 was dumb feminist propaganda as well. A GIRL AI?
Yeah, try again, feminists.
>>341969770
>But will I still be playing it after a year?
No one will be playing it after a month, let alone a year
Mordhau does absolutely everything better than this
>>341969534
>>341969619
BTFO
Even Chivalry has a combat system that works with more than 1v1. How ubisoft thought this shitty combat was a good idea is amazing.
>>341969770
I'm excited for Bannerlord as well as For Honor, but they're two completely different games.
Mordhau looks like shit, would attract the chivalry fanbase if it'd ever come out but that's not going to happen.
>>341969770
>Does For Honor stand up against them and have a place?
It has a place in the sense that it's nothing like M&B or Mordhau.
It's an arcade-y fantasy battle game. It's not going for historical accuracy or complexity.
>>341969994
>>341969619
samefag right?
I have an answer for this but I don't have the gameplay footage.
>>341970147
>It's an arcade-y fantasy battle game
Like both M&B and Mordhau. So it has nothing on either of those, got it.
>>341970030
From what I understand Mordhau is the Chivalry for people discontent with current Chivalry. I guess chivalry players might join it simply because Torn Banner decided to go retard and make a magic game all the sudden instead of Chivalry 2

BTFO right?
The answer I have doesn't have supporting evidence other than my word which you obviously aren't interested in hearing. If you want to get all butt flustered then you can always hide the thread and enjoy your evening/day/morning or continue showing your ass.
But like.. knights had superior weapons and armor right? so why would i play as a bamboo edgelord with curved swords?
>>341970193
I wouldn't consider them arcade-y at all, but okay.
>>341970490
Because bamboo edgelords are better than half naked guys with a hatchet.
>>341970409
What and you don't bat an eyelash with Nobunaga being an actual devil and not just being supremely ruthless to be called one?

To be fair, it's just an AI, means it was programmed, more than likely by a male.

Everyone said Rainbow Six: Siege was good. But it's not. It has horrible netcode, awful graphics, tons of removed content from the alpha/beta for no reason, tons of cheaters, no anti-cheat etc.

>>341967165
It looks boring
And their unnecessary amount of bullshit to explain the backstory of the game, as if anyone cares why, is a big turnoff
Will you be able to custom your warrior ? That's important
>>341970324
There are no real women versions of any of those things.
>>341970521
They are, thats just fact. What you consider is irrelevant.
>>341970730
Oh hey and guess what THEY NEVER FUCKING FOUGHT EACH OTHER IN REAL LIFE EITHER
>>341967165
This is actually the only Ubisoft game that isnt over hyped
In fact the hype level is perfect for what the game is
That is the hype is non existent and the game is shit.
>>341970409
Yes, the exploits of William-Sama are well known. There's been some guy shitting up Nioh threads about how he's making a stand and not buying it solely because not-William Adams is the star and how it "breaks immersion" that Team Ninja opted to make the protag white.
I wonder if he thought the real one actually did spend his time in Japan fighting Oni and undead and was able to revive himself upon death due to being possessed by a Celtic Goddess.
>>341967165
It looks incredibly fun and seems like it has a lot of potential. What I have seen about gameplay and development has been only positive and appealing to me and I would love to get this game as it appears. There is exactly 1 problem with the game. It is by Ubisoft. I have so little faith in Ubisoft that on principle I cannot be hyped for anything they are releasing. Once it is actually out in the hands of players, then I might be interested. Until the finished product is available I can't bring myself to care about the game.
>>341970469
>The answer I have doesn't have supporting evidence
So its not an answer, and its not even relevant. You are either stupid as shit or a shill, and I really fucking hope its shilling because the idea that people as stupid as you visit /v/ is nerve-racking. How do you even turn on a computer.
>>341970687
>inability to support more than 1v1
that's incorrect. The Alpha let me experience 1v1-4v4 and every combination in between. There are even unique gameplay mechanics that give the outnumbering side an advantage but also let you have a chance of winning if outnumbered.
>>341970748
I would consider the combat in those games to be slightly too complex to be called arcade-y, and the non-combat related activities in M&B certainly aren't.
>>341970936
>still posting
You have no proof or evidence of anything, and have already proven you're a complete moron. NO one is going to trust anything you say.
Hope that teaches you not to shill your shitty game here.
>>341970716
Yes, to an extent in the alpha you could unlock engravings for your armor and be able to tint it a shiny silver or bronze color. You can also customize Helmet, chest, shoulders, arms etc.
>>341970984
Learn to read, what you think is irrelevant. These are set definitions used by developers, all three games have arcade combat.
>>341963381
You're fucking joking, right, OP?
Why would you ever play weeabookin with their 1000 time folded steel when you can play as a chivalrous knight and FUCKING HALF-SWORD!?
>>341971007
Nice. I'm a sucker for armor customization. Thanks anon
>>341970936
>The Alpha let me experience 1v1-4v4 and every combination in between
And we have footage showing that anything other than 1v1 is absolute dogshit filled with nothing but people backstabbing each other for free kills because the combat system does not work outside 1v1. You're a moron.
>>341968467
>>341969720
>>341970263
>>341970324
Fucking morons, thank god you people are not allowed to create.
You don't do something that is totally different from the original, while still calling it that.
I wouldn't try to make something based off of Ninjas, and then make them do everything Ninja's would never do. If I'm gonna go and be so inconsistent, i might as well make up my own original thing.
So yes, using Vikings, Samurai and Knights WITHOUT magic (meaning, it may not be realistic that these people would ever fight, but they're still meant to behave just like they would) as the theme and putting a fucking female on top of all of that makes the game impossible to take seriously. Because that's straight up bullshit.
It's the same thing as making a CHILD the leader and best fighter. I guaranteed you, if it was a child, something you would consider weak and immature, none of you would be pulling the "but hurr durr it's fantasy they can do what they want" excuse.
This isn't Soul Calibur or your new Japanese anime.

So then you agree that video games sometimes contain unrealistic elements and that the video game in question is unrealistic?
>>341971304
And what did you contribute to humanity, you waste of air and food ? Besides shitposting here of course
>>341971059
>These are set definitions used by developers
To me, that perfectly describes the difference between For Honor and the other two.
I don't consider it an objective fact as games of this size will always have some elements that are more arcade-y than others, but on the whole you can make a distinction between what games fit closer to a description than others.
>>341971126
That's actually interesting you mention that bit about backstabbing. If you are aware of your surroundings and pay attention to an approaching enemy while engaged in combat with another enemy you can disengage and retreat to an area that offers you aid.
I was once fighting alongside a teammate against two enemies and my friend was killed. The two now focused on me and I retreated to a hallway where I could not be surrounded. I was able to successfully handle both opponents and come out on top to secure a control point afterward.
>>341971264
You know what nobody ever asks?
WHO IS STRONGER, MEN OR WOMEN?
Because we already fucking know.
>>341971194

Don't you pussies have your wive's kids to take care of and get ready for school?
>>341971628
Not if you agree that making a female somehow dominate the men is at all accurate or consistent.
If there was magic mumbo jumbo involved, or if the female is some type of super human, then none of this matters because you could just attribute her strength to that. But no, these are all meant to be regular humans fighting. Regular Knights, Vikings and Samurais. Somehow that means all logic can go out the window, and women are now stronger/smarter than men.
>>341971141
You're talking about Apollyon, right?
Apollyon is the greek name for Abaddon, the great angel of destruction in the Bible. Is being literally divine enough realism for you to accept a female warrior?
Anyone know when they'll announce the date for the test to start?
>>341971876
No. Don't you ?
>>341971881
>making a female somehow dominate the men

>>341971881
Player characters ARE superhuman.
>>341971881
Did you watch the trailer? It's explicitly magic mumbo jumbo. An earthquake transports three kingdoms to a pocket dimension rules by Apollyon, the angel of destruction, for the sake of endless war.
>>341971884
>enough realism
Well that wouldn't be realistic now would it?
But it would be a lot more consistent. So yes, if the bitch is actually a divine being, meaning magical god crap is involved, then it makes sense. But at that case, you can do whatever you want and it takes away a lot of value now doesn't it?
The bitch could shoot laser beams, which is so out of context/character of the game, and it would be justified. But that would be considered cheesy bullshit right?
>>341971982
Speak for yourself
>>341972108

I'll be sure to play as a female knight and plug your ass with my sword anon
>>341972235
How could it possibly be grounded and still have a justification for Knights, Vikings, and Samurai to raid each other's forts? I'm surprised the plot device is what makes you give up.
I haven't heard about player characters being super human, though.
Eventually you have to realize that the game's scenario is "Knights, Vikings, and Samurai all fighting each other with mostly authentic techniques and equipment", and the devs can and should make whatever story conceits they need to make that happen.
>>341972460
>the story is a load of shit already
Isn't this a multiplayer-only game?
>>341972650

>How could it possibly be grounded and still have a justification for Knights, Vikings, and Samurai to raid each other's forts? I'm surprised the plot device is what makes you give up.
>Knights, Vikings, and Samurai all fighting each other with mostly authentic techniques and equipmen
Yes, you don't decide to deviate from that authenticity just because it's not real right?
The vikings wouldn't fight with rapiers and fence enemies right? There's a fucking reason why that would have been instantly denied by the dev, even if it would have been really cool and worked really well in the game. Because that shit is not consistent with the histories the dev is mashing up.
But once again, the game isn't grounded very much aside from the factions and their fighting/equipment.
Because he would want a conventional Viking to be consistent with vikings.
Knights look fucking cool in this game. I doubt you'll get a choice in mutliplayer though
>>341973226
They've set her up as a Big Bad for the game. This means the three factions will have to unite to beat her. It's a common type of storytelling.

Athena was goddess of Wisdom
Aries was the God of War
Freya the Goddess of honor and love. Týr was the god of war but later replaced by more popular gods like Thor and Odin
Minerva is the Romen version of Athena so once again not a Goddess of War
Sekhmet was the god of healing the very opposite of war

Athena was the goddess of tactics and strategy, too, but yeah, "war" itself was Ares and Mars for Romans. Mars encompassed all aspects of war and agriculture too.

Gomenasai, my name is Ken-Sama.
I’m a 27 year old American Otaku (Anime fan for you gaijins). I draw Anime and Manga on my tablet, and spend my days perfecting my art and playing superior Japanese games. (Disgaea, Final Fantasy, Persona series)
I train with my Katana every day, this superior weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a thousand times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I earned my sword license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day.
I speak Japanese fluently, both Kanji and the Osaka dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Japanese history and their bushido code, which I follow 100%
When I get my Japanese visa, I am moving to Tokyo to attend a prestigious High School to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become an animator for Studio Ghibli or a game designer!
I own several kimonos, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to Japan, so I can fit in easier. I bow to my elders and seniors and speak Japanese as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.
Wish me luck in Japan!

>>341971141
>So yes, using Vikings, Samurai and Knights WITHOUT magic (meaning, it may not be realistic that these people would ever fight, but they're still meant to behave just like they would) as the theme and putting a fucking female on top of all of that makes the game impossible to take seriously. Because that's straight up bullshit.
sorry nigga, the moment I saw this webm >>341967165 was the moment this game became fantasy to me
low magic (maybe non existent even), but fantasy for sure
>>341973226
the women are wonderful syndrome?
which makes people prefer women over men and give them privileges
>>341973820
By demigods and mortals with a macguffin. These warriors are mighty, I don't doubt, but without either of those things, I don't see them killing a God.
>>341973539
Not sure. I don't see them giving spears but a halberd or poleaxe I could see but they haven't announced all the heroes yet.
I'm holding out for Naginata.

>>341967165
I've seen the E3 singleplayer footage and it looked a lot more boring and worse than this, what gives?
okay first off. there where female knights, they where called dames. and there where female samurai as well. they where the ones who specalized in the naginata. second of all, weapon fighting is more about technique than it is strength. if you've ever actually had a weapon fight you would know this. you're all just sexist, it's simple.
>>341973539
no, I'm amazed they got the hit detection on the swords to work so well, spears and halberds would be insanely difficuly
anybody else getting turned off by the sword design?
>>341973905
What are you trying to say? What in that webm said fantasy to you?
>>341971141
The game take place literally after the apocalypse, dumbass

This isn't about pushing an agenda. It's a work of fiction and isn't beholden to historically accurate depictions of gods.
Apollyon is being played off as an antagonistic entity of war rather than just "she's a FEMALE"
Jesus christ lighten up you punks
>>341973964
Tell me what shithole country you're from so I can discriminate against them.
>>341974050
>What in that webm said fantasy to you?
the katana and sword physics as well as the movement of the samurai
>>341974039
They say you can customize your weapons.
>>341974039
the katana looks fine but the knight's longsword looks like the fucking Frostmourne, yeah
some of the swords of the knights look fine though, like the other knight's. hopefully we can pick and choose on our own if we want an overly thick fantasy-design piece of shit or not
>>341974125
How can a God be defeated by the warriors in this game?
>>341974039
they are enlargened and exaggerated but i think to a fine enough point where weapons look impressive without looking goofy
i actually like that choice
>>341974039
no, what turns me off this game is that every piece of armour in that picture is probably part of a pack you have to buy, this game is going to be so loaded down with dlc it's not going to be funny, I would guess that in terms of maps & customizeable gear you'll probably get about a quarter of whats available with the base game.
KNIGHTS, ANNOUNCE YOURSELVES!
Can you guys seriously stop fighting over the game including an antagonist who happens to be female?
Like holy shit at no point do they even mention her gender or make any sort of statement about it.
also
>Not going for glorious Knight faction
sure thing, weeaboo-kun/sticks and stones caveman
>>341974149
It's a video game you retard.
Are shooters now fantasy to you because of the thousands of discrepencies in the animations and gameplay mechanics?
Just because shotguns never work like they really do, doesn't mean a shooter based on WW2 is somehow fantasy.
You guys are fucking dumb.
>>341974114
>>341974125
yeah sure has nothing to do with politics to push women in a position of power so much
not like feminist have for years demonized men and made it legal by law to discriminate against them
taking over all forms of entertainment that men like is just the next step to teach those sexist, privileged men a lesson
>>341968305
when have Samurai ever invaded a European castle?
>>341974310
My knightly companion, I honor you.
>>341974239
I guess we'll just have to play and find out. I just hope a woman doesn't strike the killing blow or it just might trigger you to death
Just you wait, if For Honor takes off and gets an expansion involving arab or turkish warriors the shitposting will get even worse
>>341974239
Story spoilers: The 3 sides make peace and refuse to fight for her entertainment. She loses her "game" when the other players refuse to keep playing and she runs to go shitpost on /v/ about it.
>>341974050
a two hander hitting a katana would absolutely destroy it, but I mean it's a fucking game, samurais wouldnt be much of a faction if all their shitty swords got wrecked in every encounter would they
>>341974396
Maybe she loses her power when the factions stop fighting.
Female Knights are unrealistic because they have no concept of chivalry and honor.
>>341974310
It's weird to be bitching about that in a thread about this game anyway.
I mean, EA talked about promoting strong female characters in video games during their conference and how they're going to donate a million dollars to useless feminist charities, but I haven't seen any threads about that.
>>341974543
Neither did male knights
BETA
WHEN
>UBISOFT
NEVER FUCKING EVER.
The animations will be a clunky pre-rendered mess.
1 or 2 maps MAX.
Dumbed down Mount & Blade combat.
Season pass before the game is out. 110$ for the FULL experience.
Playerbase will drop down to 300 players max within the first month.
It's like you idiots did learn NOTHING from The Division

source? I didn´t watch any conference this year
probably because you can´t openly start a thread like that without it getting deleted within a second by the sjws mods
>>341974641
I will play it anyway.
>>341974543
So pure.
>>341974001
>believing ubisoft trailers
>>341974239
It'll be a "PEACE WAS THE ANSWER!"-type resolution and she fades away Actraiser-style, since her relevance is directly tied to her power.
The Carpenter's "Sing" proceeds to play during the credits.

>>341974357
I don't believe you acknowledged >>341974114 's point whatsoever, he was saying that For Honor is a fictional work written probably written by like three dudes over the course of like 7 months, with way less of a focus on being a strong political message and more about being___cool___.
It by itself is in no way created to voice some broad political statement, and to complain about it being so is just ludicrous because you're twisting what amounts to 'there's a cool antagonist who happens to be female' into some sjw boogeyman.

>>341974752
The antagonist didn't have to be a god-like entity of war, though. A shadowy organization reigniting the conflict would be much better. I can kill that.
>>341967165
So the combat system is just QTEs?
>>341974039
Damn I love the design of knights armor. It's like they took the correct amount of anime shit out of Dark Souls
>>341974752
>female knight
>cool antagonist
what is cool about something like that? how am I supposed to take her even serious / threatening?
have you seen women fighting?
>>341974898
Wait. You'll be able to level up and customize your armor to be more ornate.
>>341974803
The shown footage is fake.
>>341974874
How the fuck did you get that conclusion out of that webm?
>>341974704
She was not a knight, she was just a false commander.
She even said that she had never killed anyone.
>>341974918
It's a God of War. It may not even HAVE real gender.
>>341974612
>Inventors of chivalry didn't know about it.
Great defense.

you're playing your part well, almost too fucking well, I'm the only one who see through it apparently, or maybe others are just playing along too
So you'll have to choose faction at the beginning and just roll with it? You won't be able to change teams between matches? Why else did they ask on beta page which faction you chose
>>341975062
Americans are quite adept at saying they represent certain qualities but utterly fail to have any of them. Point is, you can say you're a chivalrous motherfucker all you want, but in the end of the day, you're still a scum sucking double dealing human with the morality of a toad
>>341975016
>read about the siege of Orleans just the other day
She tried her hardest to fuck everything up, but they managed to take the city despite her.
>>341975145
They did. If you were a guest in someone's home you didn't go fucking shit up and vice versa.
female knights

there's your "immersion" fags
I just watched the viking gameplay demo and god fucking damnit that is some lazy game design they opted for.
>>341975062

only extended to other landed nobility, the common people were no different than livestock to them

Shir forgot about the thread. How does the combat feel? It seemed like it was very scripted and with loads of time out between blows, or even that it was sometimes random luck that made you win over an opponent.
Does combat flows well, does it feel repetitve after some time?
THis happens every fucking time, it's like clockwork. How can one game consistently be derailed by one line of thought spouted by an angry basement dweller with no accomplishments
>>341975318
Perhaps you start in chainmail with a few plate pieces and earn your way to full decorated plate.
>>341975484
Okay so they didn't openly murder other nobles most of the time. Not even the people who claimed to have seen their mothers' ankles. I guess they were pretty good guys after all.
irl knights were such complete niggers murdering peasants and each other so much the Pope had to come up with the Peace and Truce of God just to keep those idiots in line
Chivalry is just romantic poppycock along the lines of Bushido made after the fact
>>341974681

the bond villain literally said something about donating to charity for women to get into STEM or something like that
