I think the combat ability to throw you opponent will add a bit of caution and a way for anyone to get out of a jam. It also adds more of an organic feel to fighting.
I don't know if grappling would be good, seems like it would take a lot of work to implement it without making it op to break combos or worthless. I dunno though, I'd like to be proven wrong. I totally agree on some more styles, that would be awesome! Would love to see some Shaolin, Muay Thai, Wing Chun, and maybe the Five Animals style too.
It would maybe not be a great idea as a set of moves, As Krakens_Law says I am already scare of the ledges as it is now. However I can it as a special move for a style, where as the dodge or block by pressing the right direction you could stop an attack and moves a bit the opponent and/or the player, changing stances and position.
I finally got to do some pvp tonight and every single time there was a ledge, the other person tried to bait me there, a grapple system would make that so much worse
I wouldn't mind grappling, I do think however it would be a more low damage set off attacks that are primarily used for making distance. I like the idea of building a class more like a brawler than ninja.
I am indifferent to nunchucks though, the weapons are cool and all but I am more interested in seeing more styles and moves in the game than anything else. Not to say I will knock back any content adding weapons I am excited to see the game develop in anyway it does.
They could just add another alternative category for decks. But this one only active shortly after an evade/parry/dodge, that would work just like a move. So you'd grapple but the combat would play out as is with moves. Sorta like they do with parry in the decks or high/low avoiding moves, but it grapples instead. Make any grapple sap stamina of opponent.
This would be easy to implement. Would be as balanced as moves are now. More of a makeup, than true grapple system. I don't think a full blown UFC grapple system would work out. If they did, it'd be worthy of an expansion or DLC to me.
Didn't play for honor passed the beta. But there are fighting styles that use grappling so that why I think it would be cool. But not just a cheesy grappling system.
Throws should be included but not an entire system. Like someone said maybe map them to the right sick just like the stance abilities or include a stance with the ability to throw their opponent.
Thanks for the feedback! You've given some pretty cool ideas I can't promise that they'll be implemented, but I'll make sure to share it with the team.

Right stick for easy grabs. The devs made parry moves; they can make grappling. =D
No thanks.
