[@Aeeros]

For honor video.... huh looks like rent might need to be paid soon right?

[@julianharrison8048]

Keas Zwack I preordered for premium and totally was disappointed. According to online record, the game literally has a little under 10 percent of what it had when it first started on both consoles combined, not including PC. This game was an utter disappointment, and I won’t ever preorder like that again. Ubisoft took my 100 bucks and damn well near felt like they took a light and burned it right in front of me.

[@pododododoehoh3550]

Julian Harrison then your looking at a load of bollocks. And more fool you for preordering a game before you knew if you even like it.

[@tom434911]

I played at launch and gave that failed mess up shortly thereafter. I'm looking forward to checking it out again. I haven't seen a single connection issue in the footage I've watched this week, and no one seems to be having those issues anymore. When I played it, you couldn't go a minute without play being stopped while a connection was re-established, or the game would just drop completely. It was a MESS. Happy to see they've fixed it. Too bad it turned so many players away.

[@pododododoehoh3550]

Davy Jackson That’s to do with your internet then, the game only has connection issues if you have trash Wi-fi or the host has trash wifi and I don’t believe for a second that 3/5 matches your host is the cause unless you live in fucking Arabia or something

[@Christian-mt5jx]

Wouldn’t be cool if there was a version of this game that is 5v5 with guns and if you die you stay dead and you have attack defend game modes and there would be destruction that would be so awesome maybe a cool meme about a operator (I think that would be the new name of the heroes) would be like an attacking operator with no headshot hitbox lollolol (if someone steals this idea give me at least 5% stock kk)

[@indavalucazo3277]

What is a vortex?

[@JimboGamer]

Indava Lucazo git gud

[@10moonj]

Indava Lucazo its a combo that is very difficult to get out of. Everyone uses warden as an example. If the warden hits you with their shoulder bash move they get 2 side light attacks garenteed, after those light attacks they can either shoulder bash again or gaurdbreak. So if you try to dodge the second shoulder bash and they GB instead, then you can't counter the GB they get another two garenteed light attacks. If guess that they are going to GB and wait to counter it but you guess wrong they shoulder bash you a second time then, you guessed it, they get another 2 garenteed light attacks. So if you keep guessing wrong and they just keep hitting you with side light attacks and shoulder bash/GB then you are stuck in their combo until you guess right and counter either their bash or GB. That's a vortex

[@Surprised_Chicken]

An excuse shit players use to protect their fragile egos and cover up how shit they are at the game

[@Thundersgaming]

Jack Mooney or you can roll away

[@crab7252]

Jack Mooney or you can play an assassin or shugoki because shugoki has hyper armor and assassins can counter the shoulder bash feint to guardbreak. Or you know, play warden yourself and vortex that bitch right back

[@elimcneely7118]

As a Raider main, SHAMAN IS BALANCED! Just git gud.

[@claytondrake7650]

Eli McNeely That’s F A L S E !

[@valeriolama1]

Clayton Drake they’re also nerfing/buffing her bash,she won’t push you as far,but she’ll always get attack follow ups and she’s among the most punishable heroes in the game not requiring you to parry her,you just have to react to her bashes and jumps,and you get a punish
