    Farewell For Honor. We had a good run.

    Please read and understand; You have ruined this game.

    I have played this game on every platform for the past 3 years. I started on PS4.. then when my living situation changed I ended up playing on Xbox as well. Another life change left me without a console until recently I got the money to buy a PC and the first thing I did was purchase For Honor. Its the only game I truly love playing. I haven't put any time at all into any other game.. and I have spent HUNDREDS of dollars on steel packs just to support you moving forward. I often browse through new players streaming on twitch to coach them and help them stick around. Too many players quit bect the learning curve was so high, but that was the best part of the game. I would help these players learn to play and encourage more people to join and discover how perfect this game was. I have defended this game completely. I have stood up for it and truly believed it has always been extremely well balanced. If anyone argued about issues with "light spam" or "Turtles".. the truth was you could always find a way to counter it. And every new hero introduced, I never had an issue with. If I died to them alot it's because there was something I was doing wrong and I needed to learn and adapt. Adjustments were continually made to improve heros and these were always welcome..

    The Core Combat Update was definitely a wonderful idea. And on paper it sounded like it would've been amazing. But it's been ruined. The entire game.



    Warmonger is the first character that I believe if truly overpowered. It's ridiculous.
    -Lights that aren't interrupted on block
    -access to hyper armor for trades
    -undodgeable dash heavy (can feint)
    -unblockable dash heavy (can feint)
    -bash mid chain or on dodge
    -bash can be charged or feinted to Guardbreak exactly like warden's 50-50
    -parry punish exactly like lawbringers that can wall splat, but better which on the warriors den was specifically stated it's better because of the out of Stamina punish.

    Are you kidding? No other character has that much to their kit. She has all the best features of most iconic characters.

    Then her feats... It makes no sense at all. First off the infection damage is insanely fast and extremely deadly.. but things like stun traps and nail bombs (also annoying but less inhibiting to gameplay) have damage nerfed and the stamina drain removed?
    All this.. tier 1 with very low cooldown..

    And then the tier 4... Can be activated faster than any projectile tier 2, 3, or 4. None of which kill as fast as the infection. Sure catapult and spear storm will kill, but they are perfectly in that sweet spot of where a player could react to it at the last moment.

    Then you say all healing is nerfed. But I have lwatched a warmonger go from 1 health to three-quarters full in no time at all multiple times because she also heals on this insane infection, which she has two ways to spread. (Tier 1 and 4).

    AND.. instantly kills minions.. instantly. All of them. Every match I've played with war monger.. she pops infection and in less than 1 second has completely captured the minion zone.. And then maintains the zone because if the team tried to play as a team and go take the zone back, they risk dying just by standing too close... And she's healing.

    You have nerfed and "fixed" previously deemed overpowered feats for another one that is worse than the rest ever were..
    And because of all the changes.. all heroes feel like they took a massive nerf, meanwhile nearly everything about the warmonger is epic..
    It doesn't even feel fair playing AS her. I just feel bad. Like I turned on easy mode and everyone was already a level 1 bot.

    My favorite part about For Honor.. was that it was the exact opposite of a button masher. You NEEDED to be smart, quick, clever, and skilled. You had to learn how to adapt and read opponents and react accordingly. The path you are on now reminds me of the most basic arcade fighting game from the 90s.

    You've destroyed this game. I've been a die hard supporter of you and a dedicated player for about 3 years. I've put in so much effort to get people to play For Honor and prevent this game from dying, yet it ends up being the developers who killed it. You have finally lost me and everyone I've ever introduced to the game. I will not be returning and will actively tell people, from my experience, no one should waste their money.

    Goodbye For Honor. You will be missed dearly.

    We need single pick on dominion. It will fix a lot of the problems. We also need the "hiding the first 100 ms of an attack on the indicators" removed because it makes defending against simple lights almost impossible and predictable. I should not be predicting where the light is going to come from instead I should be able to react to it. They basically said if you have skill and can react to light attacks then we need to handicap you and blind you on the first 100 ms. It's a shame.
