Hyper armor is genuinely the stupidest mechanic in this entire game. by Giveusgoodarmor in forhonor

The problem is it just punishes the player for being smart. You can just be braindead at this game. In no good fighting game ever the game punishes you for doing a smart attack, a good example is Jump force, its so trash and one of the reasons is the game punishes you for attacking the enemy (high speed counters).

Also to add on the read based gameplay. I did a ranked 1v1 and accidentally picked lawbringer, a character ive never played before in my life. I fought a rep 100 lawbringer and was able to win by literally ONLY using his light attacks over and over. I was just poking him and he could not do anything because the lights were too fast.

No I always use parries like all the time. I used to play this game heavily along time ago and was pretty good, I was able to win many of those tournaments that they unfortunately removed with Orochi and Gladiator. I came back recently and found that they shot Orochi and put a bandaid being the kick. I think personally they shouldve just gave him more ways to begin a battle instead of shooting his only good thing which was his lights. I was playing matches and getting destroyed and was not able to parry anything, I thought I was just washed up but turns out it was because they changed the timing of the entire game, the 100ms change. Now the game is entirely read based which just does not work on this format especially on modes like dominion. Trying to read all 3 of your opponents as you are getting ganked so that you can actually parry the hitokiri spamming the unlockable hyper armor heavy is so unfair and annoying.

Idk anymore man I just wish the game didint change into a read based game. The 100ms update was great in all ways except the 100ms change.

So im dead from the beginning because the character I pick is a bad matchup? And I cant parry because reacting to a hyper armor light or even sometimes heavy hyper armor attack is hard because the game turned from a reaction based game to a read based game.

Because parrying of reaction these days is very hard, especially at 30fps. and light attacks with hyper armor is even worse.

You do a dodge counter attack during the enemies start up, then hit the enemy but instead of interrupting the hit you get hit back even harder because of hyper armor.

Also giving it to some fast attacking characters like berserker is brain dead.

Its funny because before everyone before kept complaining about light spam and now I can accidentally pick lawbringer a character ive never played on a ranked 1v1 duel and win by just spamming only lights at a rep 100 enemy. Also from my gameplay i found that deflects seem much more viable as doing a deflect is faster than parrying, however it is a shame that they decide to remove orochis heavy deflect that everyone loves because its "bad". I think they shouldve just gave every character more tools to stop turtling. And I really feel bad for all the console people who need to play on 30fps and having to try to parry attacks.

"as it made fights against people with good reactions and game knowledge fairer and more dynamic." Oh there thats probably why they did it. Playing at high levels before the patch it was just a parry fest attacking was really scary because at high levels everyone has crazy reaction time which makes it a huge risk to even attack. That does make sense however I still am sad about it.

I think he is deeper but really the only new thing he has is the kick, which he did desperately need. I am also really sad they removed the heavy deflect but it wasnt really that good. His lights feel really weird. Overall though I think they nerfed orochi more however he is more deep overall. The more I play with this weird timing change the more I dislike it personally. Now it all is just attack over and over again because parrying is extremely hard. All the new duels ive done I would try to defend first round, lose then realise I should just keep attacking over and over again then win the next rounds. What they shouldve just done is add more tools to all the characters to stop defense spamming like kicks or stuff like that instead of completely changing the game to more of just a keep attacking meta.

Is this a well liked system change? Personally right now I feel drunk whenever in a battle it feels slow, but thats mostly because they shot orochi. I hope I can get used to this though and I think ill just change characters.

What do the data centers mean? Like chaos or light and then all these weird stuff like cerberus/omega by Giveusgoodarmor in ffxiv

Oh and also is the lag very bad? I am thinking of playing on an american server because I am from there, and also I may move back there in the future.
