Yeah I play for honor casually on Xbox and recently got it on pc. My first ever game on pc the enemy team was 145+ all 4 of them. The matchmaking doesn't seem to work at all when it comes to skill brackets. It makes me sad as I thoroughly enjoy the game but it becomes unplayable when you go up against people you can't land a hit on. Additionally the Australian servers seem to only work with dominion and duels,all the other game modes queue for 15 minutes then crash. I really hope they fix it eventually.
3 years and matchmaking still sucks... How hard could it be. people paid money for this game so be fair. this is not early access game anymore that your still fixing balancing after freakin 3 years. Balancing from the class perspective to matchmaking completely sucks for already 3 years.
Your only bringing heroes who make the game more unbalanced or nerfing mains of people so their mains completly sucks. instead of focusing on the most important aspects of the game.
If you cant fix you game after 3 years just give people their money back and give up. Instead of letting people wait for 3 years.
Thats why your playerbase keeps dropping.
Read your reviews on steam it says enough.
I've started making screenshots of the scoreboard at the end of every match since S11 started, it's ridiculous.
Another 5 matches played today, another 5 losses under the belt.
First one both teams broke, was ok....the next 4, against 4 different teams, my team got their faces ripped off, over and over and over again.
everyone on one team getting between 1-5 kills and everyone on the other team over 10 kills every match is normal these days, I have no idea what they did but it's gotten SO bad.
Season 10 was actually fun, I keep playing now hoping it will become fun again but it's just painful to play, at least they know about it and are trying to fix it.
skill levels vary greatly in fightinggames and they are notorious for being hard to get into. that said, For Honor is a far cry from most fighters.
fightinggames are HARD. when you start playing you have to climb up a steep hill just to get your *** kicked once you reach the summit.
games like these will humble the **** out of you and many can't handle it - you WILL get incredibly salty but you will also learn assuming you actually want to get better - or give up and never learn the valuable lesson of humility.
initially, the learning curve pretty much goes straight up. it takes a few hours in trainingmode before you start feeling comfortable with the flow of the game and after that you still have to learn how to fight actual people.
balancing the matchups between teams of 4 when the range of individual skill is so vast is nearly impossible, and then you have additional factors like people who are messing around with a new character or having a bad day so they can't react as well as they usually do etc.. it's very inconsistent.
you simply have to take this head on and do your best to learn. stop caring so much if you win or lose when you can barely even pull of basic attackstrings or counter a GB. observe the enemy who is beating the **** out of you and learn from it.
if you aren't even trying to get better then you wont.
for the record. my prestige is about 80 and i fight anything from prestige 10 to 300 and can tell you it matters very little. you can steamroll people at 300 and struggle against the 10 at the same time.
it takes maybe 5-10p to get fairly good at the basics and that will take you pretty far. Good luck
