    Carousel of Fire - another fail for FH@UBI

    Now an event is going on at FH - the Carousel of Fire. At first this sounded like an excellent idea - many of us like the Carousel of Death, a game mode that should belong to the game permanently. Yet when you start looking at the new, modified version of this closer, it doesn't seem so cool anymore.

    First: space. The Sanctuary arena is a fighting venue compact enough to accommodate 8 characters without sacrificing much to the movement freedom. Yet FH@UBI seems to think the arena is way too huge and the characters can move along too freely. Solution? Put fires and traps everywhere and cut the space by half. It doesn't matter if the new, confined space suits only certain types of characters - most notably the Viking and Knight heroes who doesn't need to move much - at a cost for the rest, most notably the Samurai and the Wu Lin characters who need space for dodging, special moves, etc. Nicely done, FH@UBI! Keep on "balancing" like that!

    Second: How to make life on the carousel even more miserable, FH@UBI seems to have thought. Well, make it so that executing is ok only for certain characters - namely those who have short enough executions to escape any possible fire (take e.g. the Raider's "Viking greeting") or incoming attack. It doesn't matter if the rest cannot restore their health by any means - the perks and feats have also been switched off. Again, nice "balancing"!

    Third: There's even one more way to make it more "balanced": make it so that when you're close to a fire during an execution, you will be blinded so you cannot see any incoming attacks and prepare accordingly. Perfect! Very honorable indeed!

    In a nutshell: FH@UBI has done it again - they've done everything to get you killed, yet nothing to keep you alive.

    Why does FH@UBI hate so much certain players (characters), escapes me. But still - keep going. I hope at one point you'll get the "balancing" ad absurdum and see the error of your ways for yourself.

    You certainly like to whine a lot about the game. The gamemode is fun, and many have enjoyed it.

    I am so sick and tired of the BS I’ve seen over the last couple of days. From heroes getting right back up after they’re killed, hitting your enemy and he should be dead but isn’t, having the highlander come from across the field to grab you and you can’t get away. Damn I could go on.
    Let’s go to the Black Prior, again no stamina, a couple hard hits and he’s spent, too gd slow, speed up his movements like everyone else. Give him feats that can be used like fire bombs, throwing knives, anything would be better than what he has now. And let’s mention the nips who can teleport, more BS Ubisoft.
    The gamed is fuked up since the last patch

    Round 2 - Carousel of Ragnarök - another fail

    The Carousel of Fire has turned into Carousel of Ragnarök, probably for the Vikings. Fine. I guess that's why it isn't surprising that there's still no sign of fair play in the game mode. Most of the Viking characters are overpowered as it is, so why not make it even worse by introducing an element into the game which has indeed nothing to do with fighting, let alone honorable fighting. Let the teams fight for a single power-up like the shoppers on Black Friday, and let the power-up be deadly for the enemy but not for one's own teammates - and who cares if this doesn't really make any sense.

    I fail to see why FH@UBI insists on keeping the game dishonorable and unfair. It's long past due that they renamed the game "For Glory" to reflect the fact that all that matters in the fight is the Klingon-style win regardless if it's been achieved honorably or not.

    I absolutely LOVE both game modes. Its pure chaos lol. I find it very fun. Only thing I hate is when I spawn after dying & rush out to be warped back to a spawn point. Its a bad glitch. Other than that, I would love carousel of death as a permanent game mode with events having the different effects. Dominion gets repetitive, i duel & brawl a fair amount but that goes dry, i love breach but other ppl get worn out quick from it. Having carousel of death as a permanent game mode would be awesome.
