However, you have to included multilayer. There has to be some sort of guard break move or somebody will just block the entire time. Either that or you could out maneuver the other person and get him from the side.

It could turn into a "strafing battle" in which people quickly circle each other and keep jumping and slashing randomly at each other hoping to kill the other one. ^^

You ever seen a kendo match?

That's more or less what many of them look like. Wait for an opening and then pounce on it.

Of course then there's the younger ones who make their openings...

Guns and swords won't really work all that well together in a multi-player match for reasons that have already been said.

quote sarpadon

All in all, the two weapon systems would not work well together. It's like when my brother would get the sword in Halo and come after me. He'd be dead before he within slashing range.
The one way this could work is if the swords men had more health and were a little faster.

Yeah, the swordsmen need a HUGE advantage if it's gonna be a fair match with guns VS swords.


I would understand Guns only and swords only battles, but battles with Guns AND swords would turn out disastrous for Ubisoft, because the game would get some horrible reviews from the people obsessed with great online play.

Yeah, that's quite a good point guticb.

In the trailer, when you fight the guy via swords, he is able to dodge out of the bullets way. Perhaps this is only an ability given to those with swords out.

I don't know. It's the only thing I could think of to make them even.

YES! i am pretty sure i said something like that a page back...

If they try to add swords into the multiplayer along with the separate mode, then i think they should only have a few guns, or let you go into some weird bullet time mode... that would even out the playing field a little for the people with the swords...

Yup found it. I can't believe i haven't seen that trailer... i must be physcic.

My mistake. I thought you were speaking of that wierd 'stop-time' thing.

I have not but who ever said that this would turn intoa nice honorable kendo match? I can guarantee you that 90% of gamers would be out there to win and even that means using somewhat cheap tactics like jumping, strafing and making mad slashes.

How the heck is it wierd? IMO, that feature is so awesome.

The feature IMO is very cool and gives the game a sort of "Matrix like" feel to it. But on the down side, it's hardly realistic and I would prefer to become such a skilled shooter that I could actually shoot like that in real time rather than have a computer do it for me.

It's wierd for the reason Sarp mentioned: realism. Perhaps a catagory that feature doesn't fall under well.

Games don't have to be hyper realistic guys. This isn't real life.

If it was realistic, you would be killed on your third batch of enemies. Hell, you probably wouldn't even go to save you fiance. Just get another.

Hhaha yeh Theory of Chaos has a good point here guys.But didn't Ubi_Soft claim that they were making this title as realstic as possible?

That's exactly what I'm saying. If games were realistic, they woudn't be fun. However, I like the game to have as many realistic features as it can excluding the game play. Being shot once and dieing isn't much fun after the fourth time.

It isn't a problem at all as long as you have auto save and have it quite often like they did in Call of Duty. You just play that game on the hardest difficulty and as soon as you died, you wouldn't be far off from where you died because of auto saves which is good. I wonder if Red Steel has this.
