    P2P is still trash

    How long is it going to be till you fix the connection problem. Do you still need more data for that also?

    P2P is the default method for all the fighting games. Dedicated servers are great to increase connections between players, but also have other issues that really create problems for fighting games. P2P reduces latency compared to dedicated servers. And this game actually has a much better solution to it with dynamically changing hosts instead of a fixed host. And It avoids mostly some of the huge issues with other P2P titles because of this. Laggers are dropped and dynamic host migration switches the host. So: Lag switching doesn't work, no matter what some crazy youtuber tries to make you believe. Latency is much reduced compared to dedicated servers. (You would see people hitting your "ghost" form a 15 meters away, occasionally a LOT of rubber banding and stuff like that on dedicated servers)

    Most of the people complaining about P2P in general have no idea how dedicated servers work, and how P2P works. They only know that it's "something cool" they heard about

    I love how anyone that comes in with a mature, reasonable, or less negative opinion than yours is somehow linked to Ubisoft.


    Because CLEARLY anyone who has an opinion that is different than your is clearly a paid shill. Reminds me of those Trump morons who think that Protesters are being paid.


    Its pathetic.

    Just because someone types something doesn't make it a legitimate opinion. Opinions have to be based on fact to be valid. Anyone who thinks For Honor has decent netcode is simply wrong. There's no wiggle room for opinion or playstyle or any of that. They're simply wrong.

    Well...
    First: my opinion is based on facts.
    Second: There is no such thing as "illegitimate opinion" You try to come up with new terms without using your brain. Opinions are opinions. There is nothing legitimate or illegitimate about it

    You can chose to agree or disagree. That's it. You don't have the privilege to judge other people's opinions

    Your statement is riddled with inconsistencies and lies by omission.

    Consider P2P reduces latency compared to dedicated servers. P2P can reduce latency, but it can also increase it. It depends on the location of the players and server, the connections and machines running the game, and a dozen other factors.

    For Honor is the single best game on the Nintendo Switch.

    So instead of just trying to explain to them why you think they are wrong like an adult you decide to behave like a child and accuse them of accepting bribes?


    Yeah.


    That makes sense. (Especially considering its you. I would be astounded if you ever contributed anything of substance to any thread)

    Nah that guy never makes sense. He even wrote on another post earlier that he feels sorry for those who buy the game and enjoy it.... lol Does that make any sense? HE FEELS SORRY for people who are enjoying something, I repeat! hahaha

    Crazy people like him are always thinking that their opinions are the only "legitimate" ones, so it's pointless to speak to him
