Running, while it is annoying, is part of it. If you can't take a single person down when there are 4 of you, then there's a serious issue with your strategy. Split up, surround them, and destroy them. Might take time, but it's how things are.

Most characters have an attack that goes along sprinting, or chasing. Even if she has a bit f distance on you, you can gain ground and the attack will connect.

If 4 people couldn't catch a running assassin, then the fault is on the players, not the mechanics.

true. As long as running is a ability, that some classes simply need and also get pushed by items, there is no way to take it out. When four players can't catch 1 player, mmhh...failed?

I prefer the Orochi class and they aren't built to stand toe-to-toe with other players and running is a big part of my tactics. There are times I've turned 3v1 the opposite way with quick turns and strikes, that is until I get bashed by another stupid Revenge blast (everyone and their grandma becomes Superman in 2-3 hits).

If I'm low on health and I'm getting ganged up on, you're very right I'm running. I may play as a Viking, but I know how to pick and choose my fights. Besides, I've had the enemy do the same thing, and we hash it out after healing. It's strategy.

actually i was crying with laughter earlier today playing dominion and 1 of the opposite team member was getting pummeled so he took off running around the map with this guy on my team running after him for ages i was the opposite side of the map & you could see their icons bobbing everywhere ,it honestly reminded me of benny hill & that song was going off in my head so funny wish i had saved to put up on youtube

Well. I am one of those who managed to run the entire battle when I was the last man standing. It was so fun to avoid the attacks, but I lost in the end. But for me it was a victory to survive against four players.
I know it can be frustating but its not that hard to counter it, you simply circle the runner and get him with an attack without using guarding mode. You simply don't lock the aim on him and you will hit.
IMO the running is not a problem at all, it's part of the strategy and it can be easely countered. It's just your team that was unbalanced. you can use ranged attacks as well.
For me the way it is, running is not a problem actually.

Ps.: English is not my first language, so forgive my grammar

Running is a legitimate tactic. If it's the end of the game & the last man standing decides to run, consider it unhonorable. For Honor (or not)

It keeps happening. You approach another player. Will they fight? No, they run. Run, run, run.

What is the point of the game if they won't even fight? Why do they always run? It's completely ridiculous.

I just had a game of Dominion where a Peacekeeper, left alone in sudden death, chose to just sprint circles around the map.

Just running. For 10+ minutes. Running. Doing nothing, accomplishing nothing. Frustrating everyone, my team especially, but his own team as well, who had to just sit there and watch him put on a track meet.

Something must be done.

No harm in running around until you find someone at a disadvantage, that's how most people are playing this game. Don't expect people to fight with honor in this video game.

No honor in For Honor, huh? I guess I should've expected it.

And we couldn't catch him because he was a peacekeeper and my team was big slow honorable guys, conq, etc.

It wasn't a tactic, it was just trolling. He had a literal 0% chance to win.

Conqs are conscripted criminals. Slow, yes. But hardly honorable.
