Some of my favorite moments are being abandoned in 2v2 Brawl when I solo and my bot wrecking shit up.

Of course the flipside of that coin is when it decides to interrupt my 1v1 and just gives the other player revenge. Grrrrr.

Fucking right. The bots are no joke. Jesus!

 

[Gbraga]

Doesn't seem to work for me. At least in practice mode with a DS4, R3 acts as target cycle.

Though talking about controller stuff, I wonder if DS4Windows would be a good alternative to make a custom layout. Never really used it for anything beyond DirectInput -> Xinput conversion.

Weird. Maybe it's a Warden skill, rather than something they changed about the game? It's my first time playing Warden.

Is this right...for Feats:

You build up a meter over time. Once you pass the threshold the feat unlocks. You always have it after that but if you use it there is a cool down timer.

No matter how much I do I cannot get that last feat unlocked.

 

[wamberz1]

Fast revive is so busted in elimination its insane.

With a few lvl 4 gear pieces I can rez people in half a second.

Each class needs to do different things to get extra renown. Maybe try doing whatever your specialty is more.

That being said I think the fourth feat is really only for games that go wayyyyyy on, to give the MVPs some extra firepower.

Correct. Each class has a certain way to play in order to get more "renown"(feat xp). Just getting kills and kill streaks tends to do the job though.

 

[SargerusBR]

Nope, just that Faction Risk thing.

Major bummer then. What's the point of 3 factions if you wont put them against each other?

 

[Ferrio]

That's insane, people are going to have to learn to end kills with an execution.

There's a meta-game where the whole faction thing comes into play.

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Thanks!

Oh hey, can anyone check the player count for consoles? It's in the Social -> Group section. I'm curious if this number is global or per-platform. On PC it currently says 106,334.

115k PS4 atm.

I was expecting something akin to Planetside, 3 factions playing for control over the map.

 

[mikeGFG]

So how do you counter someone just spamming light attack and spinning the right stick in circles.

Is it even worth it to attempt blocking their blows, or would it be easier to roll away and wait for an opening or something?

 

[wrongway]

Ok cool, platform-specific then. Thanks!

Back up and let 'em wear out, then just catch 'em as they lunge.

Yea, this game is kind of blowing up. Not having to aim i think is going to give it a unique chance at being really big across all platforms.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Man, this game is a lot of fun. Glad I was able to buy the full game from a GAFer for $35. This is good stuff.

 

[MrCompletely]

Anyone else finding it hard to find a game on PC? Every mode is low activity.

 

[Najaf]

Glad they had the

demo

ehm... beta. Played enough to know its not a buy for me. Fun, sure, and I'll hop on for the future free weekends (like Siege) and that will be just about the perfect amount of play time for me.

 

[wrongway]

tfw when you try a vs AI mode and your teammates die so fast that you get dogpiled by the remaining 3 bots 30 seconds into the round. D:

 

[DoubleTake]

People quitting out of the 4v4 modes once executed needs to come with a big penalty. Shit is so annoying when someone quits and the game comes to a halt.

Ban these fuckers for 10 minutes or something.

What I dont get is why people cancel their revives. Let that shit simmer..im on my way!

I'd say you'd see a slow down upon release but people can get salty as fuck in Fighting Games and just look to ruin the experience if they aren't "winning". So yeah something will eventually need to be done.

 

[Kazuo Hirai]

It's still #6 on Amazon UK as yesterday, #22 on Amazon US, unexpected.

 

[Jobbs]

Anyone else finding it hard to find a game on PC? Every mode is low activity.

I am. I was having a lot of trouble getting any match to connect -- with yellow NAT type. I fiddled with my settings and got the NAT to say open (green), but I still can't seem to connect on PC.

PS4 works

 

[Akainu]

Got damn I can't kill anyone for shit. What can you even do when attack by multiple people?

Am I missing something how do executions work?

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Multiple People - Run..until you learn how to side block.( Advanced Tutorial)

Execution - Finish Opponent with a heavy attack. You will get an execution prompt.

 

[Jobbs]

anyone getting 000400004 error every time they try to join a match?

my nat is open and my connection seems solid.

 

[Ginger Hail]

If you manage to block enough attacks, you should be able to build up Revenge Mode pretty easily when grouped up on. That'll give you a chance to fight back a bit.

As for executions, you have to be holding down the lock on while delivering the final blow and then press the corresponding button for whichever execution move you want to use. As long as you're not interrupted, this'll prevent that player from being revived by a teammate.

 

[wrongway]

Matchmaking seems to be intermittently barfing. Sometimes it's fine and sometimes it just sits and spins. Last beta was reliably quick once it got away from the launch hiccups though, so I imagine this will get evened out as well. And the "low activity" thing seems to be a bug or just misconfigured. Everything last beta said "low activity" too despite matchmaking basically being instant, and now with 3-4 times the number of players it still says everything is low activity. ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[Remmy2112]

Also an execution can be interrupted by an enemy hitting you, unless you are in revenge mode. Your enemy still dies, you just don't get the heal you would have gotten if you had finished the execution and the enemy can revive their ally.

 

[Akainu]

Ok how about attacks? I seem to be doing shit damage.

 

[Sarcasm]

Got damn I can't kill anyone for shit. What can you even do when attack by multiple people?

Be that pole guy and use special ability.

 

[Hockey123]

Yeah, I've been getting booted out of every game

 

[Gbraga]

Oh, right, what in the world is the throw distance (?) stat?

 

[Akainu]

Oh, right, what in the world is the throw distance (?) stat?

I guess it's for throwable abilities?

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

I guess it's for throwable abilities?

Is it? For some reason i thought it had to so with weapom reach.

 

[-Deimos]

Oh, right, what in the world is the throw distance (?) stat?

The distance that you can throw people. Useful for throwing people off ledges or into the environment.

 

[Smoolio]

Its the throw another player after guard break distance right?

 

[Durrzerker]

Think things might be going to shit, Deimos and I were having serious connection trouble in Elim.

Speaking of, great playing with you, Deimos! Zerker pals for life.

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

Is it? For some reason i thought it had to so with weapom reach.

Edit: Yeah I'm mistaken. It's the guard break throw.

 

[Durrzerker]

Throw Distance allows you to throw your axe(3rd feat ability) on the Berserker farther. Other classes have similar abilities but not all.

No that has nothing to do with it. Throw distance is literally how far your guard break throw sends people. Nothing to do with your feats.

 

[0racle]

Played another hour, it's just not for me.

Kill me, but I feel it's almost like a mobile or tablet game fighting mechanics, I don't like them at all.

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

No that has nothing to do with it. Throw distance is literally how far your guard break throw sends people. Nothing to do with your feats.

Yeah. I guess since it was on Zerker axe I always thought it had to do with that throw distance.

 

[Goreomedy]

Um, I think I love this game....

 

[-Deimos]

Yeah, finally encountered that lag people are always talking about, but good games regardless!

 

[thedan001]

Anyone on PS4 can add me for brawl/dominion/elim

I play well, either Kensei or Orochi. Played in both closed alpha and beta.

EDIT: silly me, PSN:dannycoxr

 

[Jobbs]

I've given up trying to get this to work on PC.

My nat type was yellow then it was green and now it's red and I've changed nothing since it was green. I can't connect to any game.

Meanwhile, my PS4, which is hooked into the same router, has zero problems connecting. The only problem is it's 30 fps.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Had a Warlord who'd stand their watching you get fucked up in a 2v1 and then comment on how bad you were before getting fucked up himself

 

[Lion Heart]

Right off the bat I run for a bridge, that's how I roll. Everything or nothing.
