I’ll check it out… Been dabbliing with For Honor the last few years, but the community is more cancerous than this one if you can believe it. Another on I’ve had my eye on is Hellish Court.
Parrying getting annoying
2 Likes
Well if a butter knife can parry a 300lb inter galactic hunter’s sword blow then yeah, a rapier would serve you pretty good in this game. Hahha. IRL, spear > Rapier all day every day. To have it otherwise, would not be an improvement of the current system at all. It would actually be worse and more un-realistic. Currently one could at least make the argument that the shorter knife would give you more leverage when parrying, but rapiers would just be tossed asside or completely ignored by a pred’s attacks. That and if a pred can take multiple shots of a damn 50 caliber sniper rifle to the body, what damage you think you’re gonna do with your pretty little metal toothpick?
little miss finsessology here was stating you do not need to use parry, but then you talk about missing a parry and you are dead… I am confused…
for reference
nice qoute bro
i deliberately included the example of when parrying is needed and when it isn’t please don’t be so disingenuous

If the melee system becomes good, the ft would barely be able to land any attacks on you.
So a lot.
You dont like elegant weapons I see.
I had to get Hellish Quart after I saw the trailer. Thanks for mentioning it.

Don’t worry pal. Whenever you want we can do a private and you can show me. I’ll record and post later. If I’m wrong I’m wrong.
He’s not. You can kite bad preds at close range and unload on them. Bad preds
I don’t hate them… They’re just a waste of inventory space when you’re built like me. Much more of an axe guy. I tried rapier fighting and fencing in the SCA, but it was kinda boring and I felt like I had to hold back too much. Give me a dane axe or 2 hand axes and things feel much more natural.
As for the game, I see no reason why the FT shouldn’t get a machete or larger bowie style knife like Billy and Royce had. At least then the current parry mechanics would be a tad more believable.
Yes context is clearly something beyond your understanding. You’ve managed to make it about yourself yet again.
You have all the passive aggressive tendencies of that mother in the Sopranos.

Well that’s the thing, if we had better balance and a better pred, I would totally be down for the ft to wear a exo suit, to be able to melee fight the pred.
However youd still be easy to kill, it wouldnt increase your health.
Current ft dps, it wouldnt work at all.
But I would love to have proper melee fights in this game.
Considering the random swinging a civil would do ya a lighter weapon would be best…
Still die though :p
They actually nerfed the heck out of parry already. I’m having a hard time getting 2 or 3 in before going down. I use to get 5 or 6 before the predator went down. 😂

Parrying has been nerfed a bunch already, and I don’t think its current state is remotely unbalanced, it does mean that if predator is going to engage in melee against a team where all 4 players are still standing, though, the predator has to pick off an isolated person in the first engagement. After that, depending on class, they can hop in the middle and try to go at it, but I think right now regardless of class, the first FT target the predator goes after has to be isolated if they’re going to melee-main.

Use the Elder Sword, you’re problem will be fixed. It’s a known glitch if you’re on higher or lower terrain than your target, they will not be able to parry at all. Also it’s range is good if you pair it with back peddling/footwork.
Most annoying thing in pred melee for me is Wristblades tracking

Best way to counter this is strategy, using gorilla tactics are the best, you hit and run making them waste their resources, then when they are weak the A.I swarm them, that’s when you have to be aggressive until one by one they fall
APES TOGETHER, STRONG!
