They way ubisoft wants you to complete orders | Forums

Dominion, Elimination and Skirmish are horrible experiences. Every match has different timings for parrying, counter guard breaking etc. Even something as simple as blocking doesn't always work because of latency issues.
1v1 and brawl works a lot better. Those two modes you can actually play and enjoy the game.
So starting from today i will afk every Dominion, Elimination and Skirmish contracts i get. If ubisoft doesn't care about the players experience with the game, why should i?
What difference does it make? Afk, get killed, rinse and repeat until contract is complete. Or try to play the match, blocking doesn't work, parrying doesn't work, guard break an enemy that is standing still and while you are guard breaking, they start guard breaking and they will win. So far about 1 out of 5 Elimination or Dominion matches work decently.
I'm not really feeling it playing a mode that hardly works, where the host has a huge advantage over other players.
Item level > Skill level, bad matchmaking, power ups that other players spawn next to so you start a fight 1v1 with a guy who has damage boost.
1 enemy player is wrecking your team, suddenly it looks like your team might win.. NOPE!! he has feats by now and he will use them.
I still want to complete orders, that's huge amounts of exp and steel. I just don't want to lose my mind while doing those with this broken game, so my choice is to afk.
I think i'm in the same boat with a lot of other players. I play this game because i played the beta, it seemed fine and i payed 60e for this.
If i would have know then what i know now, i would have never bought this crap.
Everyone says, "Siege was P2P first too until they changed it to dedicated. That will happen with For Honor too."
Yeah probably.. the ubisoft way.. let players suffer now and when player base is going down, then suddenly implement dedicated servers and start a new hype how good For Honor is so another group of suckers will buy this game.
Too bad laws have yet to catch up with this ****. They need to change.

Ubisoft selling an apple: It looks like an apple, it smells like an apple and it feels like an apple but it tastes like a potato.

I don't afk, but yeah, I'll throw skirmish and elim matches to get my orders done faster. Such terribly designed game modes. Probably made by the same guy who coded the matchmaker and thought mood effects were a "cool" idea.
