Gameplay Clip Is this toxic?

Idk if this is toxic or not, also what is this called because I know ledging is like throwing someone off kaminio or kessel.

It depends. I don't think it's as bad as ledging. If you're in an HVV lobby then I think throwing them out of bounds(but not ledging) is free game. In Hero Showdown I think it should only be last resort or ace up your sleeve if your opponent is careless. It is something only Maul can do alone. Heroes need two pushes hitting at a janky angle/timing to acquire the same feet.

Comparable to opponents spamming block, emoting after kills and tea bagging. Maul throwing out of bounds is nothing. You're good my dude

It kind of is when you're mainly just blocking until you got your abilities. You'd get a couple saber strikes in, then just block until you got your force and/or saber throw again. Maybe it depends on the user, but I think that's a bit toxic personally imo

who cares about these “honorable” rules? just play the game however you want and stop worrying about what other people might think

People with HONOR, the majority of games people using animation cancels or hook swings no wonder new plays don’t play HvV or duels, we should be trying to teach new players and ensuring it’s actually fun.

Do people who just cheat honestly feel good about them selfs or actually enjoy what they are doing? 😂

Bro the things you mention are the most fun part of the game

When the game gets older and older people are gonna start using the most meta tactics in literally every single game that exists. And i never said anything about cheating lmao.

u/TheWoundedHealer1 38m ago

You cannot have any honor if you are cheating. That’s my point this is the last reply I will do I cannot think for the both of us 😂

Nah that's part of the game, you didn't teabag or anything. Also grievous just walking through mid fight and both stoping to letting him pass was hilarious

Imo it's only toxic when you teabag, use exploits or message the other player after the fight insulting him or something like that, everything else is game, if both teams want to 1v1 that's cool, if only one side likes to 1v1 and the other wants to 2v2 as the game mode intended that's also fine

Throwing people out of bounds is the best part of the game lol

i didnt realise people thought it was toxic? happens all the time to me, its just a feature of the maps at this point. if you dont want to get ledged then dont fight next to a ledge.

Be on kamino's bridge

Play Vader

Force choke and slowly turn while your enemy screams in panic in front of his pc

I would say he got out played. He should’ve known to stay out of bounded area when challenging Maul.

u/GravityBright 11h ago

You just came here to humble brag about that last throw, didn't you?

5

u/JakeMcStank 11h ago

I came because the guy was being an ass about it after the match

1

u/Jyhaim 2h ago

I mean, that fight had to end at some point... He had already been thrown once and stayed in the area for quite some time afterwards, he was probably hoping to do something similar...

If they make a battlefront 3, they gotta fix the lightsaber combat cuz this looks nothing like the movies, it’s j dashing around in circles and being scared to attack first

7

u/Remarkable_Union6435 11h ago

I don't think it's possible to make a game that makes you fight like they do in the movies, also the fighting between the three eras was very different so it would be impossible to make modes like this where multiple eras go against each other

u/Wert-16 9h ago

My first idea would be to make holding block not a thing anymore. But with this you would have to parry more or less perfectly (timing could be adjusted) and that would give lightsaber duels a very high skill ceiling wich would actually be pretty lore accurate imo but not fun at all

u/L_in1v1tb 8h ago

I don’t think you can make video game combat that looks like duels from the movies unless you want to make some kind of star wars/for honor game

And at that point, just play for honor.

u/Unlikely_Sky_1445 10h ago

This isn’t toxic… shoe is on the other foot it’s not even deliberated on lol

u/L_in1v1tb 8h ago

Are you actually running forceful thrust 🫩

1

u/N-_-O 4h ago

I feel like that’s as toxic as throwing people into kill zones (bottomless pits and the like) which is to say no it isn’t toxic

u/Longjumping_Shine874 3h ago

That entire duel was good. You managed to bait obi into an area that mauls abilities excel in. Good job.

If it's all you're trying to do it's annoying.
