After dying because a player was able to parry my attack while facing the other direction, I was revived and rushed to chase after an enemy who started making his way down a nearby ladder. I tried to climb down after him and immediately got stuck at the top... where I then waited for quite some time until another player came by to help by knocking me off (leading to my death, of course).

Come on, Ubisoft. You know full well that this game is not ready for launch... but, judging by your track record, I doubt we'll see any improvements made from this point forward. I know that some players are being overdramatic and suggesting that this is the worst game/beta/etc. they've ever played and I don't think that's true but there are a lot of things that need to be fixed/reworked/reconsidered before this game hits the shelves. For Honor has a lot of potential though I fear it will never be realized with Ubisoft at the helm. I suppose time will tell. I definitely won't be buying this game on its release date (I won't make the same mistake that I made with Rainbow Six Siege) but should Ubisoft bother to make improvements then I'd gladly make a purchase.
