I got on the Xbox One. It's really fun but let me warn you, don't get it if you can't be patient. The combat is really challenging, especially when you're still getting the feel for it. And you die a lot, but that's part of the story and it works on the Nemesis system.

  • This. I would also like to add that when you do get in an actual fight dodging is your best friend. Also, almost anytime you decide to take out a captain investigate his strengths and weaknesses first, it'll save your life (for the most part lol.)

  • Yes, getting intel out of Worms is essential. Oh, and in combat, lets not forget parrying/counters. Since you've played it too, do you have any idea what to do when you down one enemy but you're being attacked by 4+ more? I can't do the RT + X to finish him because it takes to long. The others always come up and hit me.

  • Oh my goodness that is one of my biggest annoyances and I have no clue how to stop it besides countering my attacker. I get making it difficult and not wanting you to basically insta-kill every dude on the ground but give us a break. Hopefully there's an ability later that maybe speeds up the execution.

  • The only thing I know to do, other than the ability as Chroms mentioned, is using the Wraith Stun on the other enemy. But this would only work if you're fighting 2-3 enemies.

  • You gain an ability further down the skill tree to kill all grounded enemies after getting the 8x combo. But until then, I just ignore downed opponents and attack the others. It takes a little longer but they all die in the end.

  • Ok, that's what I've been trying to do. Thanks! I actually started a thread more for discussing the game than evaluating it, hopefully we can get some stuff started for Shadow of Mordor
