Looks better and more promising than The Division to me in terms of different world settings.

The fark is this. Keeps asking me for activation code. Cant launch it

mee too

And now cant even get into Uplay.

Well played.

Quit Uplay and restart and I can finally launch it.



The P2P is really bad. 1v1, or 2v2 okay la p2p. But 4v4 need dedicated servers.

joined a game halfway ytd, and i think they terus migrate host to me, cuz i join time see everyone else latency red while i am green. then after awhile 2 people dc or something. then end of game all quit lol


Rainbow Six Siege initially also Ubishit want it too be P2P, thankfully end up having dedicated servers, or else that game wouldn't have year 2 dlc also dy.

FYI, R6S is still P2P. Dedicated servers were discussed just last week during the R6S Invitationals, but are not yet in. What you experienced was across all Uplay servers. Even R6S player had issues with Uplay last night. PS4 platform was very bad yesterday, did not hear complaints from XB1 players, PC had some connectivity issues. May not be a good weekend to play any Ubispft online game.

Played a few rounds of 1v1, 2v2 last night. Got bored quite fast. Gonna wait couple of months to see how this game turns out. After The Division, I'm very skeptical of any MMO games coming out from Ubisoft.

MMO? You do know this game has more MOBA 'dna' than MMO right?
It's more towards team-match PvP focused like Overwatch, CSGO, or Rainbow 6 siege. but with swords and sweaty men.

Nope. That's not entirely correct. PvP in R6S is on dedicated servers, Terrorist Hunt mode is p2p. Team communications (voip) are p2p also.

With that, it's clear that ubishit can do part dedicated servers part p2p. So there's no reason they can't make 4v4 on dedicated servers and 1v1 2v2 through p2p.

an ok. thanks for the correction. my bad. learn something new today.

then i'm puzzled by their recent announcement for dedicated servers.

Yeah I saw that too. But they wrote "no more p2p" so maybe it means team connection and communication, and Terrorist Hunt also will have dedicated server moving forward and there won't be anymore p2p functions in the game at all?


Either way, For Honor looks really promising la. I enjoyed it. People said gets boring fast etc. But I'm not sure, probably need to play over the weekend to see how. Titanfall 2 I didn't get bored after 150 hours even though it's the same few maps and 2-3 modes. Overwatch I played beta and got bored of it. So I can't gauge properly if I will get bored of For Honor like overwatch or not, or will be enjoyable for a long time like titanfall 2

btw is nvidia driver 378.49 really neede for this game?
is annoying keep getting message ask me to updat emy gpu driver

Hey Hi Lo Everyone,

Pudding Bear here. This is my review of For Honor.

Overview:
The game puts you in the middle of a war between 3 fractions, the knights, the vikings, and the samurais. You will choose which fraction to join at the begining of the game. Each fraction currently has 3 heroes and each hero has a different play style (during combat you are not limited to just the 3 heroes of your fraction, you can use any hero).
Note: To install the game you will be required to also install UPlay, Ubisoft's version of steam.

Gameplay style:
A surprisingly realistic feel. There are various game mode such duel, deathmatch and dominion. The characters swing their weapons like it actually weight something. Against your opponents you are able to dodge and block based on the directions of the incoming attack (very important aspect of the game). If the enemy attacks from the right you need to block from the right. There is no guard all button. Characters also have stamina which is used to attack. If you run out of stamina you need to recharge it by not attacking.

Content:
Apart from having bragging rights for being an undefeatable badass you gain items/loot, like every other game out there. You can use these items to customize your character. Every hero you play can also level up, I have yet to play enough of the beta to know what leveling your character does.

Summary:
Pros:
1. Stunningly amazing graphics (good graphic card required)
2. Realistic and fluid battle style (if you enjoy that)
3. 9 unique heroes/play styles
4. Great with friends for a 4 v 4 match

Cons:
1. Steep price tag RM 219.00 or USD 59.00
2. The guarding mechanism take some time to really master and can sometimes be a little clunky
3. Currently the beta doesn't have too much content as I have mentioned above
4. Possibly no SEA server or it is peer to peer. But when playing the beta I had no lag at all. Note: I use a 100 mbps fibre optic line.

For a video review and gameplay, check out the video below of me playing the game:[SIZE=7]

Did anyone played the open beta on PC? I had so many network connection issues when playing PC beta compare to PS4 beta 2 weeks ago. PC beta kept bringing me back to main menu once the game started especially on 4v4 mode....

Full game pre-load is available.


I really want to buy this game, but the terrible network issues isn't convincing me at all. I never finished a dominion match before.

Just now played with 3 friends from Malaysia against AI in elimination, was smooth as silk and we were playing for like 2-3 hours without any problems. Play with even 1 single player that's out of Malaysia and you could have a chance to dc. Darn annoying.

i've played it on pc with my crappy streamyx line never encouter any dc or net lag issue...only the matchmaking error i get...btw i set my pc ip on dmz to open all port...maybe u can try coz i played r6 seige also from ubisoft need to open port to play well....
