One can dream. I have hope, foolish as it is, in the success of For Honor. But I know that even in a best case scenario with the game being as good as the hype makes it out to be, and every expectation met, it'll only result in a shitty sequel or two riding the game's reputation to get money.

I wonder how customisable armour will end up being? The Knights honestly look pretty fantastic so far.

>>342002460

I suspect a lot of animal motifs. I'd go with an eagle theme for my armor, probably. Be the most American knight ever.

Looks really fun. It seems to have simple and rewarding combat.

I really hope they add more factions and have gorgeous castles to siege.
>>
>>342003189

Personally, I hope for more class types and weapons. A gigantic warhammer would be nice for my Knight character.
>>
>>342001963

The "musou" meme isn't new. The combat kinda looks like Dynasty Warriors when you aren't locked on but really it looks more like the Batman Arkham games with how much your character slides to targets to hit them.

I understand they probably want to make slapping mooks feel easy and fluid but I'd probably prefer it if were more like a musou game.
>>
>>342003418

That too. I hope there's a nice unique weapon and class variety among the factions. Hopefully there's more to weapons then speed and damage. Even a special attack button that does something different for each weapon would be enough.

Really wish they'd tell us more about how the game works, rather than showing us story missions.

There's a samurai wielding a kanabo (japanese club) in the storyline mission showed at E3.

>>
>>342003996

Yeah, but for all we know it could just be slow and strong. It'd be cool if the kanabo had a guard break attack and the katanas had a feint attack, etc. Something to make them feel different other than how fast you swing it.

There might be range differences but I haven't seen it be of any significance in any of the footage we've seen so far.

I think I get why they choose those 3 faction. They're the most romanticize of ancient warriors. You never hear about the Chinese or Arab in the same light. I'm hard pressed trying to think of any other warrior faction that such a strong identity

Persians maybe?

Picking a more obscure set of factions wouldn't have appealed to as many people.
>>
>>342005418
Maori maybe?
>>
>>342005418
Roman legions. They weren't work as well, though, because their strength comes from well organized numbers, not suited to this type of gameplay.
Arabs would work, though.
>>
>>342005714
Maybe not roman legion, but Greeks. They romanticize heros and such.

When I think of Arab warriors, I think horseback and archery, which what they were famous for, I know that they want to keep range our of the hands of the players and keep only for the npc.

Meleefags
>>
>>342006000

Actually Spartans would be perfect.
>>
>>342006058

They also used shieldwall tactics, but were formidable without it. And it would give us glorious spear-wielding combat.
>>

No.

And you fucking assholes are the reason why. Stop taking Ubisofts dick, you sluts.
>>
>>342005418
Spartans.

But I see what you mean. Culturally the Chinese and Arabs have a lot of focus on individual heroes who vary a lot, whereas if someone says knight or samurai or viking you instantly know what to expect.

Like I said, they're pretty out there.

They should have been replaced with Arabs and Romans for example.
>>

The problem with picking something modern like pirates, conquistadors or Cossacks is that now you're bringing gunpowder into it, which obviously wouldn't be balanced.

I think we should distinguish between combat prowess and pure strength from numbers. To me, Huns, Mongols, and Romans fall into the latter category, while Spartans and the three in the game are in the former.

looks kinda fun for a few hours. its lame that there is only one character for each faction and each weapon breaks down to "large two handed weapon".

Realistically a knight in full plate with a longsword would destroy a samurai wielding a katana and the vast majority of viking enemies would be musou-style cannon fodder, realism's already out of the window.

>>342007569
Samurai versus Knights is already a silly concept though, considering the weapons and armor of both are not designed to combat the other.
>>
>>342007623
There are supposed to be different classes for each faction but the game is still in alpha so we haven't seen shit.
>>
>>342004616
right here. that said only getting to use a Greatsword is fucking lame. what If I wanted to use a Warhammer or go Sword and Shield? or maybe a Flail that would be cool.
>>
>>342006494
Vikings were all about dying violently in battle and being generally violent killers. most of their culture is about killing and dying in battle. edgelord is pretty fitting.
>>
>He cares so much about historical accuracy that he won't play as Samurai
>He's not going to the play as the fast speed but low health character

Pussies.

Greeks or Persians would be fantastic. I'd even take Maori or Aztec factions. Falling short of that, Mongols would also be pretty great.

I think the game would benefit from a more tribal atmosphere post-launch. It's a bit too bland right now.

>>342007858

There are multiple classes per faction. Each class has a signature weapon. It's implied flail and shield is going to be one knight class's weapon set.
>>
>>342008357
You're right. But then the exact same thing is true of Samurai and yet here we are.
>>
>>342008059
The biggest thing about Roman soldiers is they highly organized group righting as a whole.
They never empathized the solider.

Hell even the name legionnaire mean group.
>>
>>342008279
I'm just going by what they have on the website. so far its one character per faction and one weapon. Knights get Greatsword, Vikings get a Great Axe and the Samurai gets a Nodachi.

That said if we are getting more weapons then Fuckin A.

>>
>>342008647
There better be a shield and weapon set. It makes sense to focus the game around two handed weapons only but it feels so restricted. I mean, sword and shield offers a unique gameplay changer in that the shield could block in another direction than the weapon so that a player can ready an attack from the right but also block to the left. The tradeoff for that could be less damage per hit, less reach, maybe having the possibility of chip damage when parrying attacks from the right, some restrictions on attacking from the left, and a shield bash move would also be fairly weak.
>>
>>342009638

Vikings and Knights are all but confirmed to be getting a shield + weapon class. Samurai are probably not.
>>

The way it's known to work so far is that blocking with a shield does protect you from all angles but it drains stamina.
I'm not sure if you still lose some health after blocking a heavy attack or if you can parry.
>>
>>342009783
Trailers don't always indicate exactly what the gameplay will be like. I really doubt I will be able to grab the middle of a Greatsword to get better leverage in a swing like the first trailer had? or the part where he flips the sword upside down and hit the guy with the crossguard. I really don't think I'm gonna be able to do any of that in the game.

Greeks / Spartans: spear and greatshield gameplay
Romans: Variation on Spartans, sword and greatshield
Chinese: Fast short polearms, swords and acrobatic kung fu
Pirates: Cutlass and axes, pistols are like the Samurai's ranged attack except more powerful but telegraphed and clunky
Zombies: Literally L4D player zombies, generic mob infantry are of course also zombies
Mallninjas: Overweight and very unfit with the least practical melee """weapons""" out of every faction, but handgun is very, very deadly if encountered at a distance.

Knight is literally immune against everyone else. A blade cannot penetrate armor.
The knights are pretty much protected to the maximum. A knight can simply cut trough a samurai without a problem. Their katanas would do jackshit to the steel plated armor. Same for vikings, their armor will not help.

Except they more than often walked away from a fight with a standing army even after mustering their own force. It's funny because they more than often ran way from the Normans who originated from Scandinavia before settling in Normandy.

This is a slightly different version of the E3 demo:

pretty sure the Knight in the newest Trailer was female(stupid as that is) and but it is kinda heavily implied that some magical world ending shit happened that has these 3 factions fighting each other for like 2000 years or something right? there is an evil female elf looking chick leading a 4th faction thats pitting everyone against each other and he's wearing like evil looking Daeric armor.

I think it safe to say magical bullshit is a big part of this game.

There's how much the vikings hype themselves up, and then how effective they were in battle.

As Harold Godwinson showed, not all that effective. There are exceptional viking fighters, but overall discipline was awful and prone to routs.

The only way is if her power is tied to an object or aspect. Her motivation might be the conflict itself. The stronger the conflict, the longer the war, the stronger she gets. If the three factions stop fighting, she is weakened.

Why do people always act like Vikings are hot shit? They were literally a nation of pirates who almost never actually invaded anyone who could actually fight back. They raided coastal villages full of peasants who had never even been in a fight before.

If this game was realistic there would be no reason to not pick a knight and vikings wouldn't be in the game to begin with because they lived in different time period and also got rekt almost every time they faced resistance.

Samurai actually wear armor, the vikings we've seen are bare chested fuckwits with fur loin cloths. Vikings are going to be the glass cannons, samurai are going to be the middle ground and knights are going to be the tanks.
>>
>>342018906
Lmao. It's like you don't even know they can extend their chi along the blade to make it mono-molecular. The only reason tests show the katana to be weak is because they're not being wielded by a true samurai who has mastered the art of bushido.

>"heavy warbow"

Nigga its an english longbow. Are you daft?
>>
>>342023217
There's no reason not to have female warriors. Most historical accuracy is out the window by having swords be effective against plate armor, vikings wearing no armor, and vikings versus samurai or knights versus samurai, which never happened.
>>
>>342023435
Warbow is a perfectly acceptable term, faggot. "Heavy" is referring to the draw power.
>>
>>342023304
The entire episode is covering the long bow and everything is made to replicate the way things were done.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR0wssl9fWo

It's a really good watch, I enjoy all the episodes in that series actually. Longbows fuck up armour for much up the episode.
>>
>>342022932
So you've had extensive practice on foot and horseback and have done extensive testing with actual flails spending enough time to consider yourself as proficient with it? I didn't fucking think so. Yeah it probably wasn't as good as a mace or warpick for most people but there are clearly advantages and disadvantages to it. Range being one that is indisputable.
>>
>>342023787
I've spent long enough trying to wield a flail to know that they're piss poor against almost everything.

There is NO evidence that flails were ever used in battle. Go back to your autism and dragons games.

You know, never used except for the dozens of legit flail heads that have been found all over Eastern Europe

>>342024819
>dozens of legit flail heads that have been found all over Eastern Europe
I can make shit up too, you know.
>>
>>342024685
The point is that theyre testing the penetration of an english long bow and the anon is saying theyre shit compared to the "heavy warbows" they used later on
>>
>>342024819
Its the middle ages records are shaky, if they really wanted to ne accurate the knights would mostly be using pole arms if on foot, peasents did use flails often but those were the bigger two handed kind.
>>

>>
I have faith in cane bro to deliver a fun game

>>342025093
I believe he was trying yo say the bow they are testing could in no way be comparable to the draw strength of an actual english longbow as drawing it would require emmense strength.

Not sure why there is such hate of Vikings. I think it's just insecure southern euros again who've browsed stormfront and /pol/ for years so they really hate Germanics and Scandis. I know vikings were not up to par to knights but the samurai were peasant head chopping autists who only fought eachother and belly stabbed themselves. They fought the mongols once but they got btfo by a storm so it's not like they were impressive either. Vikings are still cooler than Knights or Samurai.
>>
So which campaign do yous think will be the best? I really hope that the knights one is good
>>
>>342031063
I think plate mail looks better than viking gear it's that simple. Medieval 2 total war has cooler looking stuff than Atilla total war.

A lot of them would admit to it and just talk shit on chat constantly too.

that was really dependent on the general

for example, Galba was really anal about every legionnaire acting as a part of a whole and was known for punishing individual initiative during battle but it was pretty common for other generals to encourage acts of bravery

Ceasar had a standing prize for the first person over an enemy wall/line. The Gallic Wars has quite a few instances where Ceasar remarks positively on individual soldiers acts of heroism, listing them by name.
