Don't get me wrong! It's the amount of things that aren't right that triggers me! Up tp this point I was always defending the game. Many of my friends have already quitted, some of them payed 100$ for the game and are really pissed, which I totally can understand.Originally Posted by Ryuhi Go to original post
But till now I was always pro FH and said: just wait, they will fix it. But they don't fix it, they make it worse and on top of it we now see where they are going with this so called "Free DLC" LOL! It's not! It cost time (And it costs allot of time) ore money. 5€ for 5000 steel! So lets see, one emote is 7,50€ (you can buy 5 now) one execution is what 5000? So it's 5€ you can buy 2 when I´'m right. One outfit 7000 one 15000. You need 2000 steel for one item gear to level up to max x 6 so it's 12000.
I'll round up here:
4 emotes 20000
2 executions 10000
2 outfits 22000
gear 12000
one helmet 3000
67.000 divide it with 5000 (5€)
or with 7000 (someone mentioned you can make 7000 in a week)
67 € for one character to max out and there even is stuff to buy! Or 9 weeks of grinding.
The numbers may be not 100% correct! But you get what I mean.
And we talk about a game we already payed 50-100€ for!

First of all in my opinion they should NOT give anything for free as compensation. I dont care about compensations for stuff not working, I want them getting fixed start to work as it should have been from day 1.
Now about prices of cosmetics; they are on par with Free-to-Play game cosmetic sales like League of Legends in terms of price. Difference is;
1. LoL is F2P, but for this game we paid $60
2. LoL works like a charm, short queue, no technical problems, no special care just install >login>play; where as our AAA full price game barely and seldom works if you can call it that.
So those cosmetics with those prices in full AAA priced non-working game, are NOT OK

I'm sure that UbiSoft has studied Activision's business model with regards to microtransactions. According to reports it generated a Billion dollars of additional revenue OVER the price of the original game profits. That's hard for a business to ignore. Doesn't matter that purchasing supply drops has virtually killed the Call of Duty franchise and that EVERYTHING has now become a money grab. These business practices are here to stay whether we the players approve of them or not.

You really need that? Like need.. like need food.. you cannot play the game without this stuff? You need it that hard that you calculate how much money you have to invest so you can finally play the game? Finally have fun?Originally Posted by DerHerbman Go to original post
Really dude… Just play the game! DO IT! DOOO IT! Don’t care about these aesthetic stuff so much, it sounds like you are kinda obsessed for having that stuff.
Have you ever achieved something in life and was proud of that you achieved that? Getting this stuff for free would bring down the value so mutch, that it would not even worth having it..
But, whatever floats your boat.. if you are happy with how you think about it.. then go on and stress yourself..
Cheers

2. LoL is out since 8 years! 8! 4Honor is out for 1 Month!! 1 MONTH!

You talk about LoL beeing free for those stuff??!? Really, my LoL account in the end was worth about 200 Euros.. My SMITE account was worth about 300 Euros.. Tell me something about F2P games give you stuff for free (well, Paragon gives out a lot of free stuff)!

You purchased a multiplayer game. God forbid you don't get cosmetics for free, it costs time! What did you expect? Playing a game does indeed cost time.Originally Posted by DerHerbman Go to original post
The purpose isn't to sit your *** down and grind for cosmetics, it is to play, get familiar with your character, improve with it, master it by trying different game modes. You earn exp, steel and items along the way and then you have to make a smart decision about what you want to buy with the steel you earned. If you don't have enough steel, play some more (or "grind" if you wanna call it that) or take real money and use the easy route.
The game's purpose here is that you get all these badass visual gimmicks from the start, they are there as rewards that correspond with you progress and skill in the game. Not for noobs who take everything for granted and can flash the most badass executions and feel great about themselves. That's the equivalent of a spoiled brat bragging with his daddy's sports care. You get it when you deserve it. Or you throw money at the game and unlock it that way, which is essentially a disgusting and cheap way almost as bad as bribing for it but hey, there are always people who are of that nature too, right?
Not to mention your list... ungh. If I were more invested I would make you one with all the free steel you get right off the bat just for completeing the training modes and the story modes on all difficulties not to mention the already discusses and explained methods of daily/weekly steel earning by fulfilling the rather easy asignments.
Again, if that is too much of a burden, you have simply purchased the wrong game. And trying to inflate this non-issue into a problem is just scummy beyond hell. There are far greater problems that plague the community and this forum doesn't need another pointless thread filled with nothing but hot thin air.

If you have a job. Bills paid. Food on our table and extra money in the bank. Wasting money on a game is better than wasting it on drugs. besides 60$...the cost of the game. Didn't even notice when I bought 2 copies. I don't need to spend money in a game but after you completely finish a character the grind for 2, 3,4 characters can get excessive and you just want to play on the same level as your main. So you spend a little money to get some enjoyment. The fact that gaming companies capitalize on this fact means that there are enough people that are willing to skip through. I'm Rep 6 on my Kensei with a gear score of 100 and I spend my first 15k steel that I farmed on the mythical outfit cause I thought it looked cool rather than gear to get to 108 right away because I knew by rep 7-8 I'd be maxed out anyways. I could see spending money if by rep 30 you still were not capped by by rep 7-8...eh. If people want to skip the grind and get right to it that's their right they earned their money and can spend it how they like.
I'm for micro transactions as long it's not pay to keep playing or pay to advance.

It's quite interesting how hard some people try to defend Ubisoft while at the same time insulting me in person. That's the way you want to discuss? Didn't you parents teach you how to behave?
No wonder you get ripped of by the companies if you like to swallow and defend everything they throw at you. But guess what, these kind of practice result in a fast dying games as you already can see and you will be left with no one to play. I also wonder how anyone can be ok with the fact that they focus on selling Items instead of fixing the huge problems of the game first.
If I didn't care about FH I wouldn't waste my time rising my voice.

Im not defending For Honor or Ubisoft, but its kinds of ridiculous and childish what you guys expect and demand from this company. Ubisoft has made their errors and this game is far from perfect. BUT THEY OWE YOU NOTHING. Get over it. Go waste your money and bring it to court if you feel that wronged. If not then go play something else and get on with your lives.
People complaining about being able to buy steel and things taking longer than a day to achieve? If everything was just handed to everyone or they made it so easy to obtain, people would not have as much drive to get those things. If you want something work for it. If not, then go back to Hello Kitty Island Adventures.
