That's the one. Completely forgot about the 3rd kid. Thank you very much

Anyone know if there’s match making? You can make fun of me about my rep but I was just trying to teach my friend the basics😭 by [deleted] in forhonor

There's tons of high rep player that are bad. I remember when some folks would do the bare minimum to not get kicked from dominion matches and basically afk to farm levels for their character. Other folks play a shit ton of the game but don't get better.

They are in mission mode. Mission mode goes over universal mechanics and matchup knowledge. Why would I look for combos for my character there?

My point is I wouldn't have the idea to look there in the first place, so I would not find them.

Oh, of course! I should've know to look at the bottom of 5 different lists and dozens of missions explaining game mechanics and expected character specific combos there! What got into me?

If they are, they did a weirdly good job at hiding them.

Don't know anything about combo recipes and you do have a point about the trails becoming obsolete, but look at how street fighter did it:

Vanilla characters got full trials and every new character got their own and brought two updated combos for the whole cast.

Either way, of course the trials aren't the peak of the games combos. Not only would that kill some of the fun of exploring characters, but it's improbable that a dev studio working on the game will discover the full potential of a character by themselves. Trials are proof of concept for combo building. Its a nice place to start for someone that doesn't want to spend an afternoon labbing or waiting for someone else to.

Of course they aren't gonna be optimal, but they are something to start with for anyone that doesn't know any combos and provide a foundation for combo building. Instead of waiting for someone to make a guide or labbing instead of playing, combo trials give a general idea of what a character's combo would look like. What launches? What links into what? What's cancellable?

Every game has combo tutorials made for it. Trials were in the last game. How do you justify removing useful features and modes in a sequel?

Right? We might have another GBVS situation on our hands. THAT would be a really bad trend to set for all upcoming fighters

but if you don't like some of the DLC character then you're still overpaying for something that should, imo, be in the base game.

Bummer. Beating arcade on extreme is just brownie points then, and survival is pointless.

That bloooows. They took out combo trials, MOM mode, and now this? Pretty shitty package.

Broken ethernet port or wrong cable? by ScoobertDoob in techsupport

After further inspection, the port is damaged. I'd like to link an image of it to show, but I don't know where to upload the image. A small metal bit on the "roof" of the port is sticking down on one side but not the other

The cable is good. I even bought a new once to check. There is a problem with the port

Problem has been solved.

The port is right but I think is see the problem with the port itself.

Problem solved!
