    Knights - unofficial hard mode?

    As someone who mainly plays at night and sometimes around noon (pst) it seems like the last week the knights have been almost always be in last place for territories. More so the later the evening goes the worst knight players seem to get. Has the knight faction become the unofficial hard mode?

    Everbody craps on the knights so yes its hard mode, we start 90% of turns in the negative. I mean look. We have the sams on our stronghold and are still -2 where the hell are the knights, and where the hell is the balance?

    As a knight I'l tell you why there is fewer knights: Katanas and vikings are attractive. We look basic a bit. Majority of the samurai fan-base are orochi main anime fans. Vikings watch the show ( I do too)

    For a while I thought faction balance was working, knights are hardly even getting a surge at the start anymore though.

    LOL was clearly not working in the open Beta.

    And only ever gotten worse.

    Im not gonna say this ii the only reason why I deleted this game from my PS4 today, but it was a big one.

    Why does everyone who doesn't play samurai have to see the samurai face roll swarm 'winning' at the main menu? You can't even play the game without constantly being reminded about what complete BS their idea of 'balance' is.

    Good riddance to this massively disappointing game. It looks and sounds great but the gameplay is so-so even if the networking didn't absolutely suck. I'm not looking forward to anything UBI ever does again. Good job being the latest failure.

    I still have my poll floating around about which faction people fight for. Over 50 people and almost 50% of them fight for the Knights. Still a fairly small sample size but based on that the Knights are actually the most populous faction followed by the Vikings and then the Samurai.

    Adults don't play knight. When the big boys get off of work knights get stomped.
