Please Remove Core Combat
My friends and I have been playing the game for about one year now. We really love to play breaches and honestly have a great time, however this new update has made us switch back to other games. Not only does warmonger feel like a pay to win, whichever team has her wins. Her bash can be spammed so slow players like shugoki have no chance in a 1v2 or greater, and her lights are too fast. Now everything is faster, which I get why was done. Players like me and my friend had a hard time blocking lights anyway so making them faster didn't help. I get this is not the case for everyone. Can we please at least get an option to not play with the updated game, this way players could at least choose what they want to play?
Worst update and character upon release in the games history.
Light spam fix was a fail. Lag compensation was a fail. Stamina changes are a fail. Damage numbers are a fail. New character feats are extremely OP and the character itself is OP because of them mixed with the horrendous CCU. Played since the beta, play and buy damn near every game your studios put out but you are on a major decline, your empire is cracking and falling down. You need to face the music that you lost your opportunity at a real competitive esports chance by releasing the game without dedicated servers and it took you far too long to implement that in. Every update for the last year and a half has done nothing but hurt the console players and those are your main players. Scrap the CCU and nerf the warmonger feats. Focus on or at least pay attention to your console players, stop treating pc as the master race (slight sarcasm here, really slight). I have a ridiculous amount of time spent on this game and now I just feel like all the love and time I've spent on this game was an absolute waste. Its trash now, zero fun. Should have just kept on balancing the characters 1-3 at a time. You aren't fixing any problems by simply reacting, you're creating more problems. I'm at a point where I don't even think I would be interested in a For Honor 2. Valhalla is your last chance with me personally as your assassin's creed games are the only thing worth a damn anymore. Holding hope for gods and monsters and skulls and bones.... flop those and I'm gone. May not mean much losing one player but I've been a very outspoken and dedicated fan for longer than I can remember. You squandered a beautiful possibility practically overnight. And what's worse is how long you pushed it all back to release literal trash. You are quickly joining the ranks of anthem and fallout 76, you do not want to be there. I could go on but it just makes me sad and angry and feels like kicking a sick dog, which I also don't like. 😔
