Why is a high ping an advantage in For Honor | Forums

[Psycho-Bandit]

I dont understand why players in 4H with a n high Ping have an advantage in the match. In every shooter u never want a high latency cause u loose, but in for honor a lot of players want a high ping cause they have an big advantage compered to the low Pings.
I never would play games like CSgo with a ping 100 but for Honor, ok lets go.
Every day i meet player they probably use a tool to slow down their connection, pings are jumping up and down from 20 to sometimes over 200. There are even players they have names like HighPingMaster, LordHighPing (those are not the real names of players i meet but similar) or such like that.

Dear Ubi, isnt it possibel to change that and give the advantage to low ping players or is there a reason behind the actual system?

There is no reason for it to be this way, it's just bad and unfair. Easiest way to fix it would be to implement a latency tolerance bar like in CSGO, then everyone is happy. A global hard cap in addition to this would also be good, way lower than the current one of 300, which is just stupid.
