For Honor Beta Codes

Got bored of trying now.
9/10 games dont load at all.

Cant get my head around the controls with kb+m at all, getting my ass whooped constantly against AI alone.

Specs in sig, just tried MP.... big nope from me, find the controls way too fiddly for the pace of combat in MP needs decent controller support (steam controller wasn't detected and cba to go through key bindings)

Each to own. Am enjoying with my Xbox 360 controller as that is all I game with anyways :)

Steam controller I hated when I used it and gave to a friend.
 
Only played the tutorial and one game, but it's working great for me. Playing with a 360 controller. Fun game, will probably be better once I actually know what I'm doing.

Game keeps >60 on the extreme preset @ 1080, with my aging 290 which is nice. I did get the message about not meeting specs, but ignored it and runs fine anyway.

Not really used uplay much before. I did have to verify and download 3GB to play even though I preloaded. Not sure if Uplay just messed up or if the preload was not the whole thing.
 
Can't believe in 2017 people don't own a xbox one pad for the pc... and then they come moaning about the mouse keyboard controls on a game that is 100% a pad game..

Incredible

I had to download another 3gb as well, just the way uplay do it I guess unless they added a bit more to the beta just before release?
 
just tried to have a game and for first time it didn't join, we just all sat there in a lobby, a message came up saying they will be doing emergency maintenance in 5 mins to server, I guess there having problems now more people have started to play, been perfect for me all day as well until now :(

I dont own a pad. I am and have always been a PC gamer (not counting my pre-PC days on Spectrums, Amigas and STs (though those were all with keyboard/mouse too of course)). As such, I have never played console games, so a controller feels totally alien to me (35 years of gaming on keyboards and mice tends to create a habitual norm), probably as much as keyboard+mouse does to someone who has only ever gamed on a console.

However, I'm not moaning about it, some games are designed very much with controllers in mind and I'm ok with that, I am useless with a controller so I just avoid those games, c'est la vie and all that :)
 
if anyone wants to add me for some games (if it works good again lol) I'm syks-01 on uplay :)

Played since alpha and whilst it's good fun in stints I'm not convinced by its longevity outside of grinding gear...much like the division. Had it preordered for a while but cancelled it last week.
 
Thanks to this forum I got a code. Usually I'm not into this kind of game but I must say I'm strangely drawn to it.
I'm playing ar 2160p with everything on maxed out, minus AA of course, and it runs well without slowdown. Graphics are good but it's hard to compare with other games as I've only seen three static maps. But the castles are well drawn. Animations are excellent
I'm not sure if all there is to this game is running around and button mashing the enemy. A story mode would be great but I don't know if there will be on.
All MP games are repetitive. I found B1 to be deadly boring and just a rehash of space invaders with wave after wave of killing.
This game is like that of course, what else can there be? But I've not given up yet or got bored.
I don't know if I will buy it. Normally I wouldn't. I got stung with B1 and after finishing the tame single player game it's now on its way to the recycle bin. And that is my concern with this game.
Generally I get bored pretty quickly with space invaders derivations Circa 2016/ 2017.
So I don't know.
And of course we have to usual sad and pathetic people who will inevitably find a way to cheat.
Bring back more single player story modes. And let's use the massive tech we have more effectively.
 
Tried this last night but it didn't really grab me, did a few matches online but it seems to get repetitive pretty fast. I like the idea of the stance system, but I don't think it feels as responsive as it should. I've had a few occasions where somebody has come at me swinging in the same direction, the first hit gets blocked but then second or third hit gets through for some reason.

Likewise when I'm on the offensive and I want to do a quick 2-3 hit combo, left, right, left, I swear it sometimes gets stuck in the same direction and will come out with 3 left swings. Switching targets can also be a pain if you have a few people after you, seems to choose the target at random or it can make you to come out of guard mode if you're not careful.

Yep those after more play time are my feelings as well. I really like the customisation with the gear and visuals but the actual gameplay is a little lack luster with very repetitive moves and it feels very slow and clunky even with the quick attack.

I am always struggling with change of direction of attacks because of the requirement to hold 3 buttons at once. It needs an auto lock system that works much better.
 
I don't find it repetitive, I'm still enjoying it and find it a fun game :) just the change stance could be a little smoother but apart from that I really like it

I didn't get too much time on it last night but found that at least without the random soldiers about whilst then fighting each other it's dynamics overall were a little slow at times.

Two people when me and a random played on a 2v2 moaned because we made the decision as we were ranked on 2 & 4 and them 13 & 14 that we would take one out at a time and we got all sorts of abuse because it allowed us to win the fights compared to be taken apart individually.

That seemed strange. I have no reason why they think that taking on 2 vs 1 isn't valid as a battle strategy especially as the knight struggles against the viking bezerker.
 
ive had 2 and even the whole team of 4 take me out when ive been on my own lol I don't moan about it :) they just cant handle the fact that they were being beat by lower ranks, I have only played 4v4 at the moment as I like playing with more players, I actually find the game quite skilful which makes a nice change and it is quite deep when you get into it, I'm defo buying it as I really do love the beta
 
I have never managed to get a connection to the 4v4 as people are always dropping out or unable to connect so stuck to 1v1 and 2v2.

Maybe if I could get into 4v4 it would work out better. Honestly I think if they had a 16v16 that would be awesome. Open up the maps and really let people move about, you would make little skirmishes.

Instead of plopping them down 1v1 setup on the map put them in groups with attack vs defend and have the attackers move through trying to take out different sections.

That would add some real depth. Could even add little things like opening a drawer bridge to get your team mates to help by capturing the guard tower and setting traps/ambushes etc.

Edit: it appears the 4v4 offers most of this to a point in Domination but as said I can't get into the game to know this. All it would need is to add the ability for a 16v16 or similar and that would really add to the tactical side on how to take on other groups.

So I guess it just needs the Battlefield part so that you move from point A to B to C etc as well in game modes.
