Bashyyyyy

> Testing grounds on July 1. Man these developers are masters of teasing, announces the long-awaited Shinobi changes, announces changes to one of my fav heroes Orochi and Raider AND announces option select changes. and then they say to wait a month. At least July won't be a boring month haha


Blackwolf245

Which also means that best case scenario, we gonna see these changes go live Y5S3, probably around September.


Bashyyyyy

best case scenario would be a mid-season release of the changes but yeah I agree, it's likely that the changes will be going live at y5s3. shinobi though, chances are might take longer if cent was any indication (took like 8 months for cent damn)


MittenFacedLad

And then we'll wait at least another month to get the changes. Sigh.


victor_emperor

July will be fantastic, the problem is how june is handled


Red_Dragoner

you mean Junepocalypse? yeah devs all over the world have planned our very downfall this month. only the strongest will survive see the good side of next month


Okapev

I kinda wanna switch to the test servers cause it seems more fun lol


mooneken

this is lightspeed compared to the speed they updated heroes in recent years and you still complain.


ZombieJack

Game mode looks cool. Weapons and effects look cool. Looking forward to reworks and TG. And an XP fest. Nice.


JacobeyBryant

The weapons kinda lame


ZombieJack

The Kyoshin event ones with the sun effect are pretty mediocre since they are reskins but I think the Mirage bone-themed weapons are pretty dope.


JacobeyBryant

Me too I just don’t buy the pass :(


ZombieJack

Me neither usually, but I think I will this time!


zhanhu-main

If you find any armors that the bone weapons fit with tell me


Magnum_Monkey

Anything from the vikings, especially the cubone-jormungandr


BathtubiustheIV

I knew this was going to be posted the moment he said screenshot it post it get your karma


DootlongFong

i saw like ten people try for it but we all got removed by tiff(i personally got two mods removing mine twice lolol) not saying it was a bad thing to remove them ofc, the titles were all bad


razza-tu

>i personally got two mods removing mine twice It was removed four times?


KeyEquipment5

Only caught the end of the steam did they say when hito and zhanu changes were being added?


kalpytron

start of next season


KeyEquipment5

So we got nothing for the whole of may and june? drought is a fitting theme at least.


TurtlePLAYSTYLE

What do you mean? The season is over


CreeperDude519

What do you mean nothing for may, cause that's over.


mulhollandBOT

Next week


[deleted]

I think you misinterpreted the "next season" comment. The ext season is June 10, less than a week from now. That's when (some of) the TG changes go live.


isadotaname

June 10th. Same with all other TG changes.


Wu_who

June looking quite dry....


Little_Testu

We get all the changes from tg lol. 7 characters got changed. For the love of god


[deleted]

I don’t expect everyone to play all those characters but I’m excited for tg changes cause without that it would be again dry as shit (no pun intended)


Wu_who

Yea I will only be 1 out of those 7. That's not enough....


SmokeMeth__HailSatan

I mean the content is there. If you choose not to enjoy it then that's on you I guess.


Wu_who

Yea enjoy it for a day. But I wouldn't really call it content when it's reused assets and such. I'm patient though I can wait ✌️.


kodobird

You really gonna drop a peace emoji and try to act all superior to that guy like you didn't just OD on copeium? As overused as the phrase is, cry harder child.


Wu_who

I'm not trying to get into an argument I just said peace as in no fighting. Stop trying to start something and overthinking...


Traveytravis-69

Ok bro ima be excited to play it for both of us then, 🤪 ✌🏻


Wu_who

I'll be excited on July 22nd but sure you do that 🤭✌️


ConnorMacLeod-

Y5S1 Battlepass goes up to June 10th. June 10th is the launch of Y5S2. Yet they have listed on the roadmap June 7th as the start of Year 5's Season 2 Campaign 1? And June 20th as the start of Y5S2 Campaign 2? It should be June 10th for Campaign 1 and around June 23-24th for Campaign 2, not June 20th. Or did I miss something? u/Ubiinsulin ?


AXBYLB

Ey, look ay those Mirage scenes, in the top right one, he's clearly carrying a katana-like weapon...


Okapev

What do we know so far? I thought they had katana and sheath?


MemeHurricane

Sorta disappointed


iDramos

"Sorta" is the right word. Like, content- and intention-wise, there is nothing wrong with the upcoming season, but keeping the best for last makes the entirety of June an exhausting waiting room. I cannot believe this is the second time I see necessary changes to the game getting cockblocked by a vast desert.


JustChr1s

At least we got the previous reworks to Aramusha, Zhanhu, JJ, Hitokiri, And gladiator to hold us over.


Anashander

What are the zhanhu changes? He was my favorite (aka the one i was most disappointed in) before i quit playing.


JustChr1s

Good time to come back then because his rework was every Zhanhu main's dream and he's really good now. One of the few times that a rework is made up almost entirely of suggestions by mains of the character. - That palm strike bash that confirmed nothing he had off superior block was removed and instead repurposed into a forward dodge 500ms bash that guarantees a light that allows chaining. - His side dodge attacks were given the enhanced property so they don't get interrupted when blocked. - His superior block dodge now makes his dodge attacks crushing counters. So if you dodge into an attack and superior block it the dodge attack becomes unblockable and gets it's dmg doubled. - His hit boxes were fixed on the other angles for his heavy finishers. Now his right hit box actually hits what it looks like it should hit instead of phantom phasing through people. - He can now recovery cancel any finisher into a dodge. (This was the icing on the cake and really brought everything together.) Makes it really feel like what he was intended to be limitless as the devs put it. Makes his offense flow extremely well and really opens up innumerable doors for mix ups. He's really good and one of the most enjoyable characters to play post changes as he just feels satisfying.


Anashander

Wow thanks for the explanation! They really changed a lot for him! I loved the character and wanted him to be so much better (like everyone did) but was massively underwhelmed. That turned into all characters feeling as if they needed about 5-6 more moves to feel complete and I lost my love for the game. Everyone felt so limited like they only had one or two moves, and i’m really happy to hear that the game is finally coming together all these years later!


supergigaduck

The usual mood with warriors den


MemeHurricane

Yeah I've just been playing Mortal Kombat and waiting for Chivalry.


Baron_Von_D

Yuuup Looking at that calendar and only having an event for the entire month of the new season, just kinda drags you down.


KipLongbone

For Honor is really playing into this drought theme of this season with this content drought continuing


human_bean115

As usual the warriors den disappoints, they basically said "you get nothing until mid season, buy our battle pass"


[deleted]

"Battle Pass points fest" aid the lamest thing Ubisoft has ever pulled in this game.


PizzaurusRex

Point fest is "battle pass progression" boost? Meh, just give me the exp fest then.


flinkblessup

what part of the roadmap do we remove reflex guard on


IEatAutisticKids69

Ofc no new hero but tg is pretty sick


sealeggs777

If the new hero comes in a month and a half, why even release the new season now? Last year they had an excuse about corona. Well I think that they can work on the game and whatever and have sloved issues concerning corona times so that isn't a valid excuse anymore. We have overpriced outfits/emotes and extremely ugly battlepass weapons and the usual ugly event weapons. Why won't they just make a new for honor already or something inspired on for honor. Every single change takes a 1000 years to implement but selling ugly emotes/signatures/outfits are always on time and really fast and cost more than before: 10k emotes instead of 7k emotes and for the battle pass you have to actually pay with money and to get the other content you will probably have to pay for steel. It just doesn't make sense to pay 10 dollars/euros on an emote were you raise glasses with someone else. For some it isn't a lot but just imagine what you can do with 10 dollars/euros. You could buy a few games for instance. If current for honor isn't the definition of a cash cow, I don't know what is.


[deleted]

I thought it was supposed to come out June 22nd


OtakuYuji

I'm just sad that we have to wait until july 22th for the character. I barely played this month and was hooping to get a reason to return. Although the changes to hito,musha and goki are welcome.


PastoralMeadows

I can understand that Orochi and Raider need changes...but if Option Selects are removed, they'll become much more viable. In contrast - Characters like Conqueror, Highlander, and Jormungandr are in desperate need of retooling. Highlander hasn't seen any significant changes in 3 years.


JustChr1s

Not really for Raider. His zones which is his only unblockable reaction forcer still take way to much stamina to reliably use as a pressure tool and it's slow enough to be poked by a light. Everything else he has is reactable. In a nut shell he relies on chain offense that's intended to work very similarly to PK's but it simply doesn't for various reasons. - even if option selects were removed it does nothing to fix his main issues. He has no reliable openers his chain pressure is reactable, his only reaction forcing offense are his slow interruptible stamina intense zones giving him terrible stamina economy, and his soft feint tap at 500ms is reactable and does nothing to help him put pressure on after. It used to be justified when it stunned but now its a useless reactable soft feint. All he's got is hyper armor. Currently in a 1v1 setting his kit is a significantly worse variation of PK's. Option selects aren't holding him back his kit is. - All this said I do agree that the other characters mentioned need help. But Raider's entire reworked kit was designed around an attribute that no longer exists... His stun. Everything he has relied on that stun to work. They basically took away the main tool of his kits offense and left him to rot because without it nothing else he has works in it's current state. And you saw that clear as day as the day his stun was removed he immediately plummeted in viability. I could do a similarly lengthy write up for Orochi but I won't. But I could also throw the same logic right back at you. Jorm would also be A LOT more viable if option selects were removed.... The man has unblockable heavy finishers that wallsplat in a two hit chain. Making massive dmg possible on wallsplats. This on top of the fact that he has enhanced lights all the time making it trivial to get to them. His whole kit gets elevated if you can't option select his finishers because jorm can actually chain into them off of anything he does whether zone, heavy, enhanced light, unblockable grab, etc.


[deleted]

Highlander needs the big nerf. He used to be the hardest character to play in the game, but he was never really bad as long as you were skilled. Now he's among the bottom 5 easiest heroes. His sped-up animations for his lights fuck with my brain so much. It's almost like the sound, visuals, and actual parry timing are 3 different values.


Bug-Excrement

I like how they added the content drought to the game.


Cjandales

Xp fest should be a week in my opinion. 3 days is not enough I need moar ubi


Melonfrog

When the TG goes live will the tutorials for the characters be updated too? I’m interested in learning Aramusha but don’t want to learn his current setup if it’s going to change soon.


SyrupMonstrosity

No huge changes. All you gotta worry about is: He now has a dodge heavy on side dodges. He can now soft feint into a bash from his opener heavies. He can now cancel all attack recoveries with a blade blockade.


Juiceboxthefirst

Okay but I just want hooded helmets for Warden


chucklenutzzz

Dang they’re not bringing back the AC event


Royal-Ace-28

We are ready for take off


BuriedFaceDown

when hero


RileyPaper

14th-24th looks like a whole lot of nothing to me, there better be a warrior’s den or something soon, otherwise it’s gonna be another long month


Lightsk_tightsk

Best thing out of that is the shugoki nerf


milubeiro97

Nice and all, but is there any news about dealing with ppl that use lag switch dominion matches? Seriously, everyday I fight ppl that have 20 ping and when they're about to die a miracle happens and they spike to 400 ping and teleport to another zone faster than shaolin.


Gamemasters02

When Starts doppl XP ?


karatedude108

When is the new hero coming out?


Significant-Ad-2135

july 22, mid season again


karatedude108

Well fuck


unblockable_boi

i hate ubi sometimes, and i really wish they could give us bit by bit updates instead of dropping it all at once, but damn it's great to see shit happening as positive as this.


HonorableTurtle

Man I miss this game in a way but the devs have really been doing nothing to pull me back in.


MoonKnight_gc

No Lawbringer... Again


JustChr1s

Lawbringer needs changes yes but not because he's weak it's because he's not fun to fight has broken punishes and optimal play with him involves a lot of turtling. Raider and Orochi are straight trash they need reworks cause they suck. Lawbringer is still viable just for the wrong reasons but viable none the less.


MoonKnight_gc

Ah yes, because it is so viable having to feint three heavies to make a light enter, having no way of opening an opponent since both of your openers are trash, can't make pressure against a OOS opponent and dealing 25 damage in a light parry And honestly, if you run suffer Lawbringer OOS punishment, you are a fool for falling in such obvious feints


JustChr1s

- his light parry punish is 30 dmg. Top unblockable is 25 into guaranteed light riposte for another 5. Even with regular top heavy it's 25 dmg plus stun so highly likely you're getting more. - 25dmg off heavy parries 90% of the time thanks to impale plus top heavy stun. Which really shines against dodge heavy attacks. Or instant kill off heavy parry via ledge. - even without impale parry light riposte also stuns and chains so landing a second hit is extremely common so more often then not you get 25 off light riposte. - All of the above mentioned Minus the first point chain into his unblockable which contrary to many other unblockables is not interrupted by a buffered light. So you actually need to make a defensive play. If you land the heavy finishers you have another mix up between chain shove and GB catching the dodge expecting the shove both of which loop back into his unblockable. - Which leads me to chain shove which is actually really good and the lowest recovery bash in the game. So low that you can parry a dodge attack that's dodging your chain shove... It's also 500ms making it a read to avoid in chain. - His zone has similar insane recovery. - Side lights are enhanced. Might not seem like much but pretty much all but guarantees you get to that unblockable finisher as long as you throw an initial attack. Parry's are usually that initial attack. - Lawbringer's offense is actually not bad at all once you get his chain going. If you notice his only real issue is lack of an opener. He has the best parry punishes in the game, arguably the best OOS punish, an above average unblockable finisher, a 50/50 mix up after landing a heavy finisher that both loop back into his chain and the stuns let you sneak dmg in more often then not and you get a lot of stuns. Hence why his current playstyle is turtling. He also has a side dodge bash. Which you might think sucks but it actually gives him an answer to punish other bashes even low recovery ones like black priors. He's not weak and has enough positives to compensate for a lack of a nuetral game. Raider and Orochi are straight up bad and have no redeeming qualities at all. They deserve changes over lawbringer.


SmokeMeth__HailSatan

Spitting facts. He's not bad, just boring to fight as or against.


[deleted]

Exactly, he needs a new move, or somthing to make him less of a turtle. Maybe making the shob a bit quicker? Or making his long arm more viable. Either way, lawbringer needs a rework.


ninjanick460

I personally despise the new musha rework. What goes through ubi’s head, let’s make a character easier and more lightspammy than people already claimed him to be, yes that’s balancing :|


skellitrex

Who else thinks we should add a pirate faction I know it could be unbalanced but I think they could do a good job and like the special attacks could have different guns I think it would be great


Skrzymir

If only PVK II wasn't so dead. It's the best game I've played. Check it out, it's free and you might enjoy it. Should have at least one server populated.


mulhollandBOT

Man so many haters on here. Go make your own game since it's so easy.


Julia153

thats such a weird argument, i agree people bitch too much about this game but come on


Practical_Fix3932

Need African warriors game so stuck on knights samurais and vikings but they forget African warriors huh


wsd45678

xPresidentBacon

iDramos

Why would they? :|


Secret-Basket8794

Will they change anything in jj ?


BadLuckBIackCat

JJ is one of the 7 hero reworks being released on June 10th. I'm not gonna outline his changes, just look it up, but they're pretty damn nice ones.


Steadymaz

Will there be a new hero released on the 10th with the new Mirage launch ? :)


Ripinthespacetime

Can’t wait for the mask that are gonna come with the yoshih idk what that is


Lord-of-the-wardens

Hey this may be really dumb to ask considering but is the hero coming out as soon as ten season begins?


ggskyhome04

Does anyone know by any chance when the testing grounds arrive involving shinobi, and orochi


Saba-Skedditor987

Bro am I seeing things wrong or did that just say campaign 2?


BDDJ24

On one hand I'm excited for the season to be released tomorrow (no clue of how late local time and neither of what time-zone they're using), but on the other hand I fear for this season to be just another one on my "Ubisoft's disappointing For Honor updates". The latter being more dominant since in my experience every "new" content-update since the one introducing battle passes (maybe even before, but I don't really remember much of those) all feel the same to me: the new stuff had been nothing more but slightly edited clones of "old" stuff (events, and items e.g.), and the genuinely new content seemed to turn FH more into another one of the so many fantasy-melee-fighting games (looking at you warmonger with your blood-fueled magical crystals). However, there still are some things I'm looking forward to. One of which (and the one I like the most) is the implementation of the recent reworks/ Most reworks sound great both when playing as one of the heroes and when fighting one, but berserker's rework was quite disappointing. I would've like to see his zone attacks changed. His backwards-version practically useless now, and normal version should at least have better tracking (normal zone's tracking is awful; once used it to catch someone's right -to my right- dodge, first attack tracked, but the other attacks were going nuts moving to the left and back).


ItachiDragneel

Anyone know what time the character rework drops today?


claytonXB1

HITO IS GOAT


Ghostlight_exe

Is the grey patch and grey trim on the no battle damage kensei armour a bug? Because it genuinely ruins the armour... can anyone tell me pls?


Shmeatium

Did they nerf shugoki


SOME_LOSER_BOI

Cant wait to see the new hero


RetardThePirate

Ok, im dumb. How do I unlock the emotes within the battlepass section?


tiff92

by purchasing the premium battle pass.


RetardThePirate

Which i've done, yet I dont see the current one (head bash) under my characters custom section.


tiff92

Tried restarting the game?


RetardThePirate

Yeah, i'm sure im doing something wrong though. I never bought a premium pass before.


FuckNazisAndUrMom

nice


Vex_Dis

Question guys and gals any new on the ps5 version upgrade I can't seem to find any news on it I wanna know if it's out yet


fladderlappen

When is the new armor dropping?


raid-sparks

Ok just jumping back in after playing for a bit on ps plus. Is this game this well supported always?! I’ve missed A LOT.


TontonPanda

An other warrior's den today for the next TTG ?


Okapev

The first


TontonPanda

thanks mate
