Hi Ubi, dedicated, long time veteran here. I've been playing this game since release. I've never once come to the forums to vent until now. I've dealt with every controversial patch has seen. I started out as a die hard Kensei main, back before his 2 reworks when he was terrible. I've survived through every patch. Every. Single. Patch. There's been alot of ups and downs with this game. Between the framerate lag, the latency issues, and everything else on Xbox, I've stuck through it all. Because I loved this game. Every time I got comfortable with a new hero, you nerfed them into the ground. (Jorm, Hito... R.I.P.) But I kept playing. This last patch is indefinitely destroyed what I've come to love about For Honor. Sure, the lights were tough to deal with. But now, the game is so wonky and unreactable that you haven't fixed the issue. You lowered the damage by 2-3 points, but I still get light spammed. I still get poked. Not only that, but my lights and heavies do less damage now. Attacks are way less reactable. At least before the game made sense. Now, I'm getting hit by heavies that I dodge. A tier 1 feat takes half my health before I can do anything. The animations are choppy. You can't react to anything.

This core combat update is the worst thing that's ever happened to this game. And I say that coming from a loyal, dedicated fan who's been here since DAY ONE and NEVER voiced my opinion on here. Until now. This update has ruined console gameplay. Bring it back the way it was before. Please fix this, or this game will surely perish.
