Is this game broken ?

[ALSSA]

Hello i was thinking about getting For Honor but all the reviews on Youtube says the game is totally broken the reviews are 3 months to a year old so is still broken or major changes have taken place ?

The game has definetely improved. That being said, there are still issues. There will be people that will tell you that it's absolutely broken etc, but I personally disagree.

The game is getting more balanced steadily, although about half the roster still has significant problems - some by being not viable at all, some by just having a dumb design.

Connection and such is also steadily improving, although once again there's much more to be improved in the future. Most significant changes are the implementation of the dedicated servers which decreased the errors, and the lag compensation.

An important problem is that since it's a fighting game of sorts majority of the playerbase is veterans, and you will most likely be stomped a lot until you get a hang of the game. I'd suggest playing vs AI before deciding to go to PvP.

What you should do 100% however if you are interested in the game is trying it out yourself in the upcoming free weekened May 3 - 6. That'd be the best choice by far as you'd be able to tell if you like it or not for yourself.

The game is much more stable connection wise and gameplay wise, but saying that it is still very unbalanced.

i think balancing heroes is something that it's easier to fix than having broken connection and gameplay

Yes now delet

I bought it on a whim after I hated the beta. The only difference is the server. Its a poor and cheap attempt at a hero based game that rewards mindless spamming of the same overpowered moves and thats it. It could be great but they haven't improved ♥♥♥♥ and are just cashing in on it while they can still make money off this dying POS. Could have been great, but UbiSoft only cares about money. Slapped together reddit tier ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Wouldn't say broken as such i'd just say inbalanced, in terms of some heroes being miles better than others. Takes a while to get the hang of it as you can only really fight effectively if you know every heroes moveset, especially as most players are pretty experienced by now. Don't let that put you off though, as much as i hate For Honor sometimes it's my fav game for sure.

I'd avodi this game with a stick, its addicting but its not a good addicting with a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ toxic community, unbalanced gameplay (usually the funnest characters are underpowered IMO), and the occassional disconnects/crashing. Its really not a healthy game to play.

[brost/¹√]

yes still broken

[AdlerEule]

Balance wise, yes.

But atleast they fixed the connection Issues, no more getting desync'd because the host left the match.

people who are sh!t say its broken, just learn to lose and get better. im not good but i dont consider it broken, you can beat anyone if youre better.

However, two people of the same skill level can win/lose if either choose an underpowered or overpowered hero.

You cannot claim that a PK has the same chances as a Shugoki to win a fight.
