BluWolve Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Already downloaded and chomping at the bit to try it out. Been looking forward to this game for a long time. The "Art of Battle" system sounds awesome in theory, cant wait to see how it all works in-game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey Delta Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Does anyone know if progress and rewards carrys over to main game from this beta I have read that it does.Does this mean level and xp etc or just items? I believe that some cosmetics will unlock in the main game if you play the beta and more I think if you are part of the faction that wins the war. Sign me up for any groups lads, I've been waitin to play this again for ages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd. Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 What factions are you guys? I never played the last beta but am probably going to choose Samurai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SneakyofSneaks Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Yeah will try it out after work later, still unsure about the game hopefully this will help make my mind up. Samurai, has to be doesn't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecto69 Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 I am playing as Viking but so far not very good at it. LOL Need to practice more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Delta Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 What factions are you guys? I never played the last beta but am probably going to choose Samurai. Knights as the overall faction, Conqueror as main hero. Looking forward to trying some of the other classes but I think I'll see how high I can get the Conq mostly Also, just to note to anyone who isn't sure, the faction you pick when starting the beta has nothing to do with which heroes you can play as, it only determines which faction your wins will go towards in the meta faction war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewie B I ReQ Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I went with the knights. Really like the warden. Also I absolutely love this game. Its brilliant but at the same time its so annoying. Ubisoft being cheap skates and running the online with player hosted lobbies.. Some games can be frustrating brcause of recoverying game state or disconnections or laggy players. So annoying because the game is just fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm yet to launch the beta and see You can be any character you want. You start with 3 characters. 1 from each faction. There are 6 more but you need 500 coims to buy them After the tutrial you are awarded 2000 coins. After that you gotta play to earn them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Delta Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 After the tutrial you are awarded 2000 coins. After that you gotta play to earn them There's also an advanced tutorial you can do for an extra 1500 steel so there should be plenty to unlock some gear packs. Also, check out each heroes videos, they show a lot of the more advanced and unique moves and skills for that hero. Stomping people with the Conqueror is a lot of fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NShepherd N7 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Are there any special beat unlocks that carry over to the main game? Something that can only be unlocked during the beta? If not I think I'll just wait for the full game. By the way, Vikings FTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot God Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 How do you recover health ? Tried running back to the spawn point but no health regen and then I get killed easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty130 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I can't answer the two above questions, but I just had a quick sample before the servers went down for a short maintenance interval and it seemed pretty nice. The intro pulls you in and the combat feels pretty good so far. I'm afraid lag might screw with it a bit, but we'll see. I'm sure it's been tuned for that Samurai FTW!

Floyd. Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 How do you recover health ? Tried running back to the spawn point but no health regen and then I get killed easily. The Orochi class gets health regen from defeating an enemy and you can also be healed by standing in a control point your team occupies. Some Knight type seemed to use an AoE healing spell last game but I have no idea what that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecto69 Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 This game needs to be played with a team, solo into the 4v4 is ok but if you could chat with everyone it should be better. I hate chatting with randoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
