    Can we get something about raider instead of being left in the dark?

    This is incredibly frustrating. Raider has a tool for nearly every situation. It feels like for me to beat a raider i have to be what feels like double the skill level to have a chance. Raider does insane damage for his stamina usage as well as stamina control. On top of that, he had one of the highest health pools in the game second in base health to law bringer. Add in some of the fastest mid chain activating hyper armor on his heavies and you have an incredibly strong hero. I play on Xbox and this character is incredibly frustrating. even more so than hitokiri but that's a personal frustration. Can we get something more then "your feedback is appreciated"? Cause this track record on the forms says ubi really doesn't give a damn about its players. Ubi devs are probably waiting for everyone's hate to dye off so they can not do anything cause why do work and fix something when you can just wait it out.

    I can definitely understand the frustration of raider but right now based off of how they never adjusted beserker after his rework I'm not really sure they will do much to him besides remove the dodge GB which they said they would do. people threw up a huge scuff about adjusting beserker when he got his rework and got a bit overtuned but they never did anything about it so chances are they probably wont do much with raider besides removing dodge GB.

    The way i get to see this problem is that they are trying to deepen the game without adding new variables, hyper armor, attack speeds and stamina control shouldnt pretend to be the problem to defensive play, instead they should aim towards a more controlable margin of error in the players hands, like ARMs and Mordhau does, i have always felt that arms is a better fighting game than for honor but it had bad luck with its platform and visual theme

    "your feedback is appreciated" yea I'm very sick of this sentence as well bro.

    its true their plan is to not change things and just wait out the hate. they think when we add another rework or character thats broken the hate will move to that and everyone will forget about the raider or the current broken **** at the time. the issue of this strategy is every time they do this they lose a piece of all the players soul and heart for the game. that sounds cheesy but its very true. i know in my case i used to love the warriors dens and would encourage all my friends to play the game. now when someone asks me about it i tell them to save the headache and play something different..maybe mordhau. i know I'm going to try this game out where if i felt like the devs listened to us and cared about what we want i would never even consider playing it. this game has a very cool concept but once thats old whats going to keep the game alive? the lack of ANY feedback from the devs has really gotten to me and I'm really trying to find other games that have a better community of devs that really care about the game and their players. maybe on the den do Q&A for the most part of the shows? this would help us to know whats going on in your thoughts. but instead its stupid tournament recaps and community corner ****. there is half the den focused on recapping tourneys that don't even have a spectator mode. do the devs actually care? we don't know because they don't give us any feedback. maybe 5 Q&A questions once a month on the den... not enough guys.

    Not trying to pick a fight. This isnt you specifically its culmination of me seeing it brought up i neatly every "Im Leaving" post

    But in tired about heqring about Mordhau. You know its fun and all but the game entirely lacks tge compexity and depth of for honor. In fact id say Mordhau is more glitchy and broken by far, but no one cares because the experience is fun, mutual, and expected. Its really not a comparison or direction id want for honor to go. For honor is a wholly unique experience.

    I'd agree that For Honor was better on release, FH right now is a different story though, the fighting looks better, but that's about it. For Honor is balanced too far towards PC IMO, the attacks are becoming too fast for console, and maybe too fast in general on both console and PC.

    There is not much reacting in FH any more, just guessing on defense, and mixing your fastest attacks with your feints and unblockables on offense regardless of what your enemy is doing. There's no time to think of strategies on the fly.

    For instance, you see a raider coming towards you, you know he's going to go for nothing but unblockable feints into stunning tap and dodge GB, but that doesn't really help you in terms of defense, because it happens so fast you have to guess before it's thrown.

    I don't run into this is Mordhau, if someone keeps using the same strategy on me, I figure out a way to counter it and they can't be so obvious, kind of like how certain players use spears and the rapier and just thrust over and over, it's an easy counter if they are being predictable, but even when being predictable on FH it's still really hard to defend against because everything is too damn fast.
