Season 6 official Ubisoft win matrix | Forums

[We.the.North]

Think you can find us a link to that there documentary mate?

Jason VandenBerghe was like my hero in the time leading up to For Honor's launch, and I was very shocked by his sudden depature from the team, but with all the articles and stories I've read and heard about, I could never find something outright sinister about his firing/resigning.

I don't know if there is a link to watch it online, but the name of the documentary is "Playing Hard"

Ok. Period.

Now we can get the topic back on track. Thank you.

By now the subject is closed.

The win matrix for Season 6 will be released after the start of Season 7. If it's like the win matrix for Season 5, expect the win / loss matrix of Season 6 to be released a good 2 months into Season 7.

We.the.North, you are currently my Hero. I did not know this about Jason VandenBerghe, so sad. Just goes to show what ubisoft does with real talent. Hope he does well on his new job.
Your words paint a sad truth. The only thing that remains is to await the release of Bannerlord (which will happen God knows when) or for someone with actual talent and care for his players to take the awesome concept of Jason and create a game worthy of his vision.

To be fair toward Ubisoft, the video game industry is a business. At some point, you have to balance between the amount of resources required to achieve something vs how much more money you'll get from the game.

Having worked there myself 7 years ago, I know they have something called a "Closer". The "Closer" is a pair of fresh eyes that haven't touched the game yet. Near the end of the Beta, the job of the "Closer" is to check everything still in progress and cut cut cut cut cut. Anything that won't make it in time or that would take up too much resources from the team to complete is being cut. You end up with a game rushed to be released in time with some of its key features cut from the game. The "end game" is less than what it could have been, but the trade-off in $$ is worth it.

Very few companies bank on reputation to sell future games. Companies like CD Projeck Red have an overwhelmingly positive reputation with their player base and by now, they pretty much can get away with anything. But it takes an incredible game to achieve such reputation and you can never reach that by cutting corner. Ubisoft has another business philosophy where they cut corner to make games as profitable as possible to their shareholders. They sell less, but their games cost a lot less. (1 assassin's creed every year).

And again, this is so sad. Not just about Ubi, but the state of the industry as a whole... Thanks for taking the time to reply to these, they are informative

Hey Tundra. How goes it man? You planning on getting back into FH when Marching Fire launches?

Meaning Ubisoft still hasn't come up with a good idea on how to present some of the obviously unbalanced characters as not so unbalanced when the matrix will clearly show it as such.

Not really though. All 3 reworks of season 5 (kensei, conq, and zerk) were all considered to be absolutely broken at some point. And their data showed how each hero rocketed up from where they were pre reworks. They're not afraid to show that data. To claim so is just a childish behavior.

To sort of add my own feelings on the hat of this when I saw for honor's first public reveal I was hyped. and while this game has deff had it's low points and there are still some things about it that make me unhappy i've never once thought this game was bad for taking this route. Nor have I ever thought the game was a failure despite starting off with very flawed concepts. I love this game to it's very bones. and i'm so glad it's still around and still being supported content wise. One of my favorite fighters of all time.

Just look at Roman's attitude during Warrior's Den, he just doesn't give a **** and looks like he's bothered to be on the show, clearly looking down upon the player base. He shows absolutely no energy during the show, he's just annoyed.





Dont believe anything in the comment section of these videos and on Ubisoft Forums, they have dummy accounts made to "thumbs up" massively and create false hype. Look at what you get for yourself and decide if you like it or not, cause the internet is full of fake news and fake reactions.

Great post. This is also something I’ve noticed about Roman few times I watch a den. He looks bored, pretends to sleep, shows a complete disconnect from the community and doesn’t seem to really care.

But the dummy account thing I find hard to believe. Sounds real Illuminati like and I think it’s a stretch.
But considering Ubisoft still haven’t fixed the forum spam after a year, anything could be possible.

I don't know, I think that's a bit unfair to Roman. I always thought he was just a bit awkward on the show.

And if there is a hint of contempt for the community, can you really blame him? You wouldn't know how many death threats have made it to his mailbox, sent be people who otherwise claim to be "fans".
