A suggestion regarding combat skills

Combat system
#1

Hi guys,
I just realised what was bugging me about the combat - the fact that you start with all the combos and tricks already enabled. It confuses when you’re just trying to learn basics.
I thought it would be a better experience if you start with just dodge and block and basic slash-stab moves. And unlock better moves/animations with your levels. Plus it would be cool to learn top tier moves from an experienced teacher, but learn basic combos through experience.

I think that would make the game more immersive and fun to progress, plus will not overwhelm new player with too much to track. It will also be very rewarding to get a combo to use in combat after hours of training/fighting.

Cheers

I guess that this is certainly planned, but we can safely assume that skills+perks progression isn´t finished yet (there doesn´t even seem to be any UI prepared for it yet).
I personally would really appreciate this system, and some extra trainers for perks/combos only, as I can´t get those combos working no matter what…

I can only do like a basic one, three steps at the most, and even that is very hard because of how the aim system works :frowning: Sheild also seems to have it’s own combos but how do you attack with a shield is not explained.

Im fairly positive this is how the final game will be you must not forget that we are in the middle of the story line in the beta.

I’m making sure the devs are being aware of what we want, maybe they already planned for it, maybe not, who knows.

Shield combat is a nightmare for me. If I have one equipped, all my attacks are countered or I get hit automatically by opponents (and if they have a shield when i do, they block all attacks no matter how I swing) However, if I don’t have a shield but instead just the longsword, I can fight pretty well (though that 4v1 at the mill was a ‘‘fuck you’’ from the devs. Loved getting the shit beat out of me. XD)

I did not have them fight me at the mill.
I wish I did, cos cumans at the camp don’t want to fight me :frowning:
