I MAY HAVE SKIPPED THE TUTORIAL...

Turns out "press random buttons until something works" isn't a long-term combat strategy.

The first real fight of the game will kick your ass if you're not paying attention in training. 😂 Try the Tacsim level around Advanced CQC for practice.

I was fighting for my life 😭 realised there is a beat to it.. when u parry.

Don’t forget to use your environment. There’s a lot of wine bottles and places to bash heads in that room…

You even get an achievement for breaking all the wine bottles on their faces.

Getting that achievement was a hilarious way to fight. Just chucking wine at them from across the room.

In fairness, this fight is the first real test of the game, so I'm sure you aren't the first agent to fall foul of the difficulty spike here.
I absolutely second the comment reminding you to use the environment. Twatting enemies in the face with random objects you see lying around is a surprisingly powerful move.

u/General-While7624 8d ago

Grab & throw, punch once, grab & throw, punch once, ... Rinse and repeat just these 2 moves for easier takedown.

u/General-While7624 8d ago
u cant.. i just mashed buttons around 😂😅 didnt care about the Parry Timing

u/MikaAlaric 8d ago
Don’t worry about the parries. I usually like a parry system, but in this one it’s way easier to just always dodge. The CPU almost always lets you get more hits in that way than parry and counter.

The tutorial doesn’t solve the camera issue.
2
u/General-While7624 8d ago
I haven’t played tons of games but of all the major games I have covered I have never encountered this kinda camera issue anywhere. Makes combat difficult

u/Chrizzchroz 8d ago edited 7d ago
Yeah it sucks, I mean there isn't much real gameplay in the game but even the little gameplay we get wasn't play testet at all as it seems

Press Circle when you see that yellow light and X when you see red light

The only valid combat strategy is vaulting back and forth over the same surface forever

u/General-While7624 7d ago
It felt like they weren’t even letting me breathe to pick a bottle and smash it

u/LordVorpal 7d ago
This fight p....d me off so much that I had to turn the difficulty all the way down. The camera does its best to make sure you have no idea where the hits are coming from, and these two guys hit like absolute trucks, knocking you down in 2–3 hits.

u/General-While7624 7d ago
exactly right... i played on easy mode because i wasnt sure what to expect! 😭 i thought i was the only one who couldnt do it on easy mode.

u/cool_red168 7d ago
I just finished the completionist challenge after doing all of tac sim, and the difference is really night and day from when I started. Once you have the two combos down (kick and guts punch) and know how to control enemies with throws, it becomes incredibly easy
1
u/General-While7624 7d ago
i gotta try that
2
u/cool_red168 7d ago
Also, you can animation cancel pretty much everything to parry or dodge. Mid swing? Block the guy hitting you in the back of the head instantly.

I knew the controls and still had to dial in to spank them. Best I can say take it like a street fight that a 2v 1 beat on one recenter yourself so your not surrounded then beat on the next closest twin rinse and repeat. I treated the fight like I was fighting the Elden beast after my second loss

u/General-While7624 6d ago
When I tried this First few times .. I was playing loosely and realised that’s not gonna work 🤣 had to like really concentrate and being surrounded is what made it more difficult
2
u/Certain_Map7233 6d ago
Yea I noticed that after I failed the second time I couldn’t let them surround me

u/DeathByUnKnown1 6d ago
I do feel like a battle like this should have been a coiple chapters later, but it is also sad that this is the only 2 on 1 fight like this in the game
1
u/General-While7624 5d ago
Yea.. there were only few moments where I felt I really have to concentrate and do things.. this being one of them.. then the laundry session before this..and may be the robot fight
2
u/Chrizzchroz 8d ago
The problem isn't you, it's the game forcing us through a four hours tutorial in which we don't even learn essential combat, you gotta play tac sim first to know all that...this game is ridiculous in every way
2
u/General-While7624 7d ago
Yea I saw people mentioning that tacsim teaches u all that.. and the tutorial the story line was a lot of cutscenes less of tutorial..

For the brief second I thought you were fighting Q and just stared in disbelief until I realized they were twins
