Finally got around playing the beta earlier this evening, it's a strange yet familiar Ubibeast. Technically speaking, the visuals are decent and the game runs very well for me despite my vintage rig, though gameplay-wise, it definitely has severe limitations and design decisions that don't tickle me in the right way, with its weird arcadeuthentic approach as expected.
It actually requires a certain amount of strategy (which is good), but unlike Chivalry or Mount and Blade, it relies entirely upon visual/UI cues and signals instead of environmental awareness, reducing the whole experience to an overdose of..."get the right move bae and shake it!" UbiDance:

Why isn't this f2p. It's a few maps some characters barely any gamemodes. Doesn't seem that hard to have made this. 60 euro for this is completely ridiculous.

It's one of those games where you only see the complexity of it if you play it long enough, as in do the basic tutorial, the advanced tutorial, learn a characters move set and understand other characters (your opponents).
I'm also not sure playing with controller is all that great.
And yes the assassins are all a bit OP. Game obviously needs balancing
But there isn't anything simple about this game, if this game is too simple - the only games in the world that you are left with are RTS games, maybe mobas, CIV, maybe Arma 3 for all of its keyboard inputs, street fighter 4, kerbal and simulators in general etc.
And P2P games always need some port bullshit, which isn't great btw, game needs dedicated servers, remember GTA 4 on PC though? my god.
Also "bought Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls" and "Game is okayish, but too simple for me" in one post is quite the oxymoron.
It's like saying "chess is too simple for me, so i bought shoots and ladders"

I don't know what your are talking about, but this isn't a complicated game at all. You have 3 stances and a few abilities to use with little awareness required because the everything is spoonfed to you by the UI. The tactics are limited to zerging and other than that, there is little left to say about this game, that's how complex it is. Compared to any PvP oriented MMO, For Honor is a big joke that hasn't progressed one bit since its first Alpha test.
But the game's quality makes no difference since marketing is king in this day and age and Ubisoft is playing by the book paying a lot of streamers to have For Honor in top 5, tricking gamers who can't see past colorful graphics and cool looking armors.
PS: Civ is a pretty simple game and the comparison with chess is insulting for a game that requires actual intellect.

if you learn the characters and play only brawl the game can be really fun but gets boring fast after few matches, been playig since the first alpha and nothing really has been added.
dominion mode is just boring and best to avoid, should have ditched it and made the game an arena brawl with more moves and make it something like mortal kombat.
I can see your soul at the edges of your eyes..

So what is gonna be added to this in the real release? For me there is not enough content even though I enjoy 2v2 and 1v1.

Tried it. Deleted it.
How anyone finds this style of lock-on roshambo QTE combat satisfying is beyond me. Feels awful.

The difference is that Siege had all the right elements, lacked polishing and proper technical support.

yeah it would have been better if it way way more hardcore, more moves on each character and no fucking UI arrows giving you all the information so that you dont even have to learn the animations on all charactesr, game takes like a week to learn which is awful for a fighting game

If this had been priced reasonably, I might have been tempted to buy it.. Maybe on a big sale, if the game's community is still alive by then.
The game could easily have had more depth, and I wish the Dominion maps would be bigger and less static ( kinda what I expected ).

Last beta I didn't even install it. This time I gave it a go.
Lasted 1 match until I uninstalled, and I only stayed until the end because I was playing co-op with a friend. Screw this shit, what a waste of SSD cycles...

They will be adding client side hacks and lag switching to the game, should be a solid title on release men. |

So much about it 
Mount & Blade is not a game for pretty colors.
