They have the change to FOR ONCE balance the characters before they come out, not release them totally OP and break the game in the process. And here you are, demanding them to release them earlier, because apparently "thousands" of people agree with your opinion. I dare to to open a poll.
Should the marching fire update drop sooner?
1. Hell no, I'd rather wait longer and have a properly balanced game by the time the new heroes come out. Remember Centurion? Now you get four of 'em. Fun times.
2. Gimme! Yum yum!
I double dare you Motherf*cker (please don't be offended by this, it's just a phrase and not to be taken personally)
Nope. For Honor have nothing in common with this game and most new games. So, I really doubt, that FH players will skip biggest update of the game for shooters. New players will come (I think) during Christmas Holidays with all sales ther in Steam and Uplay or PSN, Microsoft Store-Other AAA big games will launch at the exact same period, for instance: COD BO 4 October 12, Battlefield 5 October 19. and these are just the shooting games, lots of players will go for the total new games
Sure, but what is wrong here? Me, personaly, supposed to make a break with game for Crew 2, cause I waited it for years. But I'm (no doubt!) will return in season 7 and than in season 8.E3 hype, attention will die out long before the Marching Fire update, gaming hype is a strong thing, but it only lasts for 3, 4 weeks,(exept the tryhards, pro players) and the hype will cool down, now you have the gamers attention all over the world, use this
I have job and wife. And I have like 15-17 hours per week to play games. So I don't even need to be patient. I have Deus Ex Mankind Devided and Crew 2 that will keep me occupied until 16th of October.Humans are not patient, you just showcased a lot from 2 of your new heroes, we want to play them now, not 4 months later, it is a long time in modern gaming, when players cannot use their new favourite, they will go to other games, and they will wont be as hyped in October as now
And please let devs do it all right, no rush! I waited a year already forproper seige mode and deffenetly could wait 4 more months.
Text bellow might Content broken english. Sorry for that.
I'm not a "Big" For Honor Player, even thou I'm playing since Open-Beta.
I'm usually not often on the Boards, or have a high Level in FH, but I really love this game and I'm very passionate about it.
So here are my unasked Feelings about all this:
Aren't they using it? O.oE3 hype, attention will die out long before the Marching Fire update, gaming hype is a strong thing, but it only lasts for 3, 4 weeks,(exept the tryhards, pro players) and the hype will cool down, now you have the gamers attention all over the world, use this
I assume there are already Gamers, that are playing the game because of the E3, since the Marching Fire Trailer brought For Honor back their Attention. If they like the game, they will Keep on playing, if they don't like it, they won't. I don't think the Marching Fire update would Change that.
Also: Many People didn't wanted to Play For Honor when it was released, because it was broken mess (at least I experienced it as that, which is why I abadoned the game after two weeks, still here I am). When they check the game know, they see a stable Community, working Servers, fixed bugs, rebalanced Heroes, new Content and so on. They gonna see a For Honor as a game worth to try, since it's a really good game now (in my Opinion).
ALSO:
Not only is For Honor hyped, it is free right now is (More or less) and all the PC Gamers can check the game. If they like what they see, they stay. They stay and they wait together with us.
After all, the Marching Fire is just an update. A Little part of a really good game that already exists.
Yup, and unlike Battlefield V, or CoD you can already Play For Honor. You don't have to wait for the whole game, it's already out, exept for an update with 4 Heroes and a Gamemode (simply spoken).It is summer time, one of the biggest potential for gaming time, because obviously younger players have summer holiday and can play a lot, players who are working, mostly have more freetime during the summer, your whole playerbase can play more Honor in summertime than in October, you need to build on this
I feel with you my fellow comrade-in-arms, I want the update as badly as everyone. But again: the same goes with EVERY other Game on the E3. Well actually with games in General. But I understand your aprehension.Humans are not patient, you just showcased a lot from 2 of your new heroes, we want to play them now, not 4 months later, it is a long time in modern gaming, when players cannot use their new favourite, they will go to other games, and they will wont be as hyped in October as now
Okay, I can understand your worries and your other points, but (and that might be wrong with that an will probably offend you/someone with that thought) I don't think you truly think that 4 heroes at once will be Problem. To me it appears like you just want to make your "Heroes-Prerelease-Suggestion" more valid. Don't want to offend you at any meaning, but to me it seems like so.In the offical launch plan 4 heroes will join the battlefield at the same time, that is obviusly too much at one time, the players wont know which hero they should try first, because all of them are cool, gamers can’t focus to learn everything about one warrior, when you want to fight with the others too, 2 heroes on a launch would be perfect, as you did in the past effective
Yup, and they have a whole game to discover in that time. It's not like For Honor doesn't have anything to offer besides the comming update. So they got a good, unique and GROWING game with free updates. That was the reasons I came back half a year ago, and yet I'm here.If Ubisoft does not act to eliminate these problems For Honor can lose it’s chance to evolve and get a much bigger playerbase on each platform, the newcomers of the Free game wont stay long, most of them wants to play with the new heroes, than they realize they have to wait more than a quarter year
Actually I came back after I coincidentally stumbled upon a Video about the Highlander and I was like: "Wow, he Looks cool, lets give the game another try."
Installed the game, trained a Little with the Highlander and went into a Duell. Got destroyed by a Lawbro. I was really impressed by the Lawbringers moveset and tried him out after the game. Oh look! New gamemodes! Wait a Sec.. Can't remember this map...
In the end I kept on playing for everything else BUT the Highlander.
Migh happen to other Players now.
After all For Honor ended up as a great game. The big update might just be a eyecatcher to non FH Players. Kinda:
"Hey guys! Remember this game noone talks about? Yeah, we were working on it."
For Honor at ist current state deserves to be called a good game. It deserves Attention.
Attention the E3 Trailer brought.
Thats my look at the things.
Might be wrong thou.
Also:
It seems like a lot of People are afraid that new For Honor Players who got hyped by the Marching Fire Trailer, will Abandon the game an never come back.
Guys, just because you haven't played For Honor for a few month, because the game didn't hook you, doesn't mean you will never come back.
I'm pretty sure there will be People who got hyped by the E3 Trailer, buyed the game and didn't got hooked/were disapointed.
Still, that doesn't mean they are gonna ignore FH from now on. When the marching fire update goes live, they have a valid reason to give FH another shot.
And who knows? Maybe they finaly find their destiny on the battlefield, wielding a sharp blade, seeking for honor and spamming their emotes.
