I bought the For Honor despite not being able to connect to a singular game in the technical alpha because it was being cited as server issues at the time -- I paid $60, and couldn't play for the entire first day I owned it because I got a solid 5-15 FPS whenever I booted up the game regardless of settings despite having THE recommended card to play the game and playing the tutorial fine in the TA. Tried turning off every single FPS dropping setting from Dynamic Shadows to v-sync on/off to dropping the rendering, nothing.
The fix ended up being to turn off a core for the game -- yeah, nice, that's a sign of excellent optimization. No threads or help from Ubisoft about it, mind you. Got it from other people who just wanted to play the game themselves and scrounged up that fix.
So I play fine for the first few days, some random game-wide disconnects that everybody's been getting.
Yesterday, though, I log on and whoop -- NAT is suddenly yellow or red. No changes whatsoever made to the network or my computer.
Rest of the internet? Perfect. Literally any other multiplayer game/ Works just fine. Ports are forwarded.
But nope, For Honor just disconnects me randomly at any point during a game if I'm lucky enough to connect.
I give up. Ubisoft got their $60, chances are they'll drop support for this like a hot ******* potato. Those of us who suddenly started having this problem after the hotfix are just gonna get the shaft because we're over the timelimit for refunds, and Ubisoft has no reason to fix it since the money is already spent. So much for the season pass benefits.
