    The signs are there. All of them. What is happening with the servers? Could we get an answer please?

    I've been thinking this for a awhile I think they are slowly shutting down servers and it's a mix of p2p and servers right now will go full p2p after next hero

    I got the feeling some people don’t know how the P2P times really looked back then.

    But I have my doubt that people really had much experience with the P2P system in For Honor.

    Because what they state here doesn’t even come close to the horrors of that system.

    Could be that, or could just be the botched match making matching with regions further away than it should. I've noticed that I used to get pings around 20, and now it's almost always 45 or higher with these recent seasons.

    I have something like 94 days playtime & been playing since Beta, I know what the P2P system felt like why I raise the issue. For me its in duels, Dom seeems laggy at times but stable. The reason I raise my playtime isnt as a 'i am so good' statement its more because I know most the people I am vsing (some friends, some familiar names you bump into repeatably over the reps) and the games with those players have felt different since around Jorm to the matches had over the preceding months/years (unless there was a discount bargain on faulty lagswitches 90% the playerbase purchased at once that randomly break the game 50/50 in their favor/loss)

    Duels for me have (to name the key ones) -
    1) many more unable to connect errors after a match is found
    2) frames/attacks/kills reverting after landing in a low ping match along with dropped packets (such as buffered inputs being lost)
    3) (a big one) players dropping midmatch, and at times being replaced by a live bot you now have to fight. Given a D/C was changed to = forfeit this was a big alarm bell as it feels like old server split where both players somehow became their own host

    The alarm bells are against players I have vsd many times & the weirdness seems to happen at no higher than 20-30 ping, on occasion one player will spike to around 298+ (this is random and can be between rounds even). Players have messaged me saying 'hacker' because they killed me (in their screen) or parried me (in their screen) but it reverts to my screen and they end up with what I saw, or vice versa (I parry etc. and am suddenly mid enemy GB getting smacked)

    And its not my ping, other games are fine... just this one, since about Jorms release.
