    Changes in the For Honor Community team

    Hello warriors,

    There has been some shuffling among the Community team at Ubisoft Montreal, and today I’m sad to announce that Sanourai, our favorite lady samurai, is leaving the team to help the Assassin’s Creed team. San helped us a lot during all the events last year like E3, Gamescom and the Closed Alpha. I want to tell her a big thank you and the best of luck in her future challenges! If you see her at an event, make sure to say hi!

    I’m also very proud to introduce a new member in the For Honor team: Eric “MrPope” Pope, who just joined me as a Community Developer, here at Ubi Montreal. MrPope has a strong video game industry background, having worked at Harmonix for many years and he’s thrilled to be part of the devoted For Honor warriors. Just like me, MrPope is a big music fan and he pledges the Viking allegiance. He also likes wearing plaid shirts. We will work together on community programs, on Alphas/Betas and on the many events we plan to attend this year. Be ready!

    Please welcome MrPope to our community of warriors! And stay tuned, great things are coming!

    Below: MrPope and SpaceElephant on a monday morning (matching outfits were not planned...)

    Hey gang, just wanted you all to know how psyched I am to be here, and specifically to be working on this game. For Honor is truly something unique, which is rare to find these days. PLEASE do not be shy about hitting me up, either here or on Twitter (@MrPope) or elsewhere about ways you would like to see us doing more with the community. I want to hear all your ideas, no matter how deep or complex they are! I measure the success of a game based on the quality of its community, and it's super exciting to already see such strong voices and cool discussions popping up all over the place (not just on these forums).

    Also it's dangerous right off the bat to show me gifs are allowed here. I LOVE A GIF.

    Here's me and the rest of the For Honor community team just hanging out:

    Welcome MrPope, you just became part of one of the most anticipated games in 2016, hope you can jump in on our conversations on the forums frequently.

    Also farewell and good luck to Ubi-San, the last samurai on the community team

    Definitely 'gif'.

    'Jif' is a brand of peanut butter, and nothing else...

    100% agreement.

    Also, if you think you can sway me to the Way of the Samurai I consider myself an open minded Viking. Let's hear your pitch why I should switch allegiance!

    It would be the least samurai thing to betray your own I'm afraid, so if you avoid that you are already a samurai at heart.

    With that said, I recommend watching our promo video which will surely impress you :

    AFAIK there's not, but the level design director is, so shoutouts to him !

    Also @SpaceElephant, I hope we still making that Pink Tiger Clan!
