    Ubisoft have done a great job with For Honor. This version runs smoothly with the most common graphic cards, offering a really fine experience to all the players.

    For Honor’s peer-to-peer networking woes do it great injustice, for it is, in its core, a truly unique game that provides us with a competitive multiplayer experience no other game can claim to offer.

    For Honor will inevitably be a favorite title. It combines easy to pick up, complicated to master fighting and action-style gameplay with compelling gameplay types and there's nothing quite like it. However, if you were looking for a single-player game, you might not want to purchase this title. The heart and soul of For Honor are its multiplayer modes, and unfortunately, at this time, there are enough issues with matchmaking and peer-to-peer connections that you may want to wait until Ubisoft has some time to fix those problems. However, once For Honor has a solid networking backbone I can say it'll be one of my go to multiplayer titles for the next few years to come.

    While the game’s fairly high skill ceiling and emphasis on micro-transactions might be off-putting to some players, For Honor is an experience that’s truly fit for those that are warriors at heart.

    Amazing rich gameplay that is sadly let down by an overly complex UI and hidden barely there tutorials. Sure to be a long term hit. [Issue#260, p.60]

    For Honor's tactical, forceful swordplay is extremely well-executed, especially for a first attempt. It's just a shame it's attached to so many distractions, including a bewildering story mode.

Now Ubisoft are actually listening and patching 1.05v for example shows this game has a future and should succeed. It really is a great game i like what they did with the unique four person peer 2 peer connection which is smart but as usual people complain because they either have poor connections, A poor isp, or disconnect. This game cannot work miracles the problem is the playerbase and kids these days. They should keep working, patching and add harsh penaltys to people who disconnect and ruin the feel of the games. It is not meant to be a drop in drop out game now enough talking and start killing! Expand

    Review ITALIANUn gioco non per tutti.
    Il gioco di per se è fantastico, meccaniche e grafica stupenda.
    Unico problema è il fatto di dover comprare con il metallo(valuta del gioco) per comprare le skin o vari "fatality"
    Di per se se si toglie il fatto di dover usare il metallo come se fosse un gioco f2p darei volentieri un 9.
    I giocatori sono ben pochi, spesso si fa fatica a trovare una partita nella settimana da lun-giov entro un minuto.
    Alcuni personaggi sono nettamente più avvantaggiati, anche se diciamo possono avere dei counter.
    La personalizzazioni delle abilità è carina come idea ma alla fine non migliora il gioco, anzi...
    Non capisco perchè ha un voto così basso, probabilmente proprio perchè i "casual gamer" che vogliano sempre vincere hanno notato che non ti becchi sempre quello al tuo stesso livello di abilita... ma a me sta bene, è un modo per migliorare a giocare e accettare la sconfitta.
    Review English:

    A game not for everyone.
    The game itself is fantastic, mechanical and beautiful graphics.
    Only problem is the fact of having to buy with the metal (currency of the game) to buy the skins or various "fatality"
    By itself if you take away the fact of having to use the metal as if it were a game f2p I would gladly give a 9.
    The players are very few, it is often difficult to find a match in the week from Mon-Thu within a minute.
    Some characters are clearly more advantaged, even if we say they can have counter.
    The customization of skills is nice as an idea but in the end does not improve the game, on the contrary ...
    I do not understand why he has such a low rating, probably because the "casual gamers" who always want to win have noticed that you do not always get the same skill level ... but I'm fine with it, it's a way to improve play and accept defeat.

    BUT:
    Unbalance piece of ****
    Even with dedicated servers the game suffers from endemic unbalanced skill.
    Most powerful characters are sold with real money to or 15.000 in game currency. PAY TO WIN.
    Worst matchmaking ever, sister of Destiny 2 PvP matchmaking.
    A player with a huge difference of levels and items, just get a match with me being an enemy, with 1 reset and level 28 against an 100+ level.
    After several months of game, nothing has been done about this crap game.
    Ubsoft show's one more time what they are capable to do(not much by the way),
    and how deep they'll go to take our money.
    Could be a good game.
    Could be the very best game of his kind.
    But Ubsoft come and do all wrong again.

You lead the mouse to the left, in the stand selects the top, the same situation with the movement to the right. During the fight it is not possible to think about the movement and everything should happen quickly, but you can not normally defend from the sides. Add: There is no balance in the game. I just logged in, and my opponent was a man with 2,000 hours... Perfect. So the game is going on what year, and from the bugs or cheaters (hackers), she did not get rid of. Caught a bunch of players who simultaneously beat and pierce protection. That is, begin to hit, you get damage, although standing in the block, and the enemy strike was simple, not piercing. In general, it's just another squeeze of your money and nerves, I do not recommend it to anyone! / Игра полностью не адаптирована для игры с помощью мыши. Ты ведёшь мышью влево, в стойке выбирается верх, такая же ситуация с движением вправо. Во время боя невозможно думать о движении и все должно происходить быстро, но нормально защищаться с боков не получится. Добавил: В игре нет баланса. Я только что вошел в игру, и моим противником был человек с 2000 часов... Идеально. Итак, игра вышла в 2017, а от багов или читеров (хакеров) она так и не избавилась. Попалась куча игроков, которые одновременно бьют и пробивают защиту. То есть начинает бить, получаешь урон, хотя стоишь в блоке, а удар противника был простым, не пробивающим. В общем, это очередное выжимание ваших денег и нервов, никому не рекомендую! Expand
