    How to make For Honor a bit more fun and effective in getting a bigger audience pt.1

    Keep in mind this is not in any particular order and only a few of what i can gather with what has bothered me and even plagued the WAY you access the game. Feel free to correct me or add anything that comes to mind. (For reference, i have played this game Since late-Alpha and i even intended to go Professional and compete in tournaments, game didn't feel right, didn't bother doing that after Hero series tournament.)

    1. Add Cross-SAVE: It is the most annoying thing when you cant bring what you've earned with you to have it in a better setting (Console-PC). Ubisoft tends to drift towards PC and while that is Okay, the switch to it is very disappointing since you have to spend money to buy it all again and have NOTHING from what you worked hard for on console. THIS Ostracizes the console community and makes a fine line between whether it is even worth getting an entire PC AND buying the game again with NOTHING or just playing a ****tier version of the game with all of your stuff. The other option is optimizing the console version of the game, which seems like is not going to be EVER happening. (So far i do not know of a game where it is Cross-SAVE in any UBI titles.)

    2. Event game modes and Custom Games: One of the biggest problems the game has is re-play-ability. This could be managed somewhat if they had a "Playlist" of event game modes for player to participate in anytime, just during events make THAT specific game mode connected to the event grant more Rewards (XP, Loot, etc.) upon completion and victory. These game modes should also be available during custom matches, however they should also add more modifiers to custom matches (Ex: lightsabers, Small heroes, and even Arcade modifiers would make custom matches phenomenal experiences). Not only add them but let us be more specific with them in terms of "who" (Ex: 1 person on both teams gets more health, and cause bleed, while others could have a variety of other ones if the host so chooses to grant them or allow certain buffs to be picked by teams), this gives freedoms and grants the chance for people to put "Imagination" in play themselves if they so choose.

    3. Arcade: While arcade can be interesting on occasion it is not something people would play often like they would in any other game (Ex: Mortal Kombat). Some small solutions would be to add things like feats, granted that sounds overkill but Hero Specific feats could be granted based on the type of Arcade or specific chapter you are on or even put in story mode (Pick-up-able) versions of feats in arcade. (That by itself sounds fun!)

    4.(EXTRA) Story Mode: A lot of people love or hate the story mode of For Honor ( Its an old meme but people still talk about it), it would be interesting to see what you could do to possibly make another one and that it could go based on Hero choice and actions would be different based on said Hero, it would be interesting to put up to 4 players in story mode and make it interesting enough for it to be Re-playable as an option, there are too many varieties of this for me to think of and actually pick a story based on lore (While i do have a "Favorite" , it's not just me we are talking about).

    NOTE: these are just ideas, cant say anything will come out of them but it would be cool to see the game influenced by it to some extent. Hope for the best i guess, you know where to find me if you need me UBI.

    I like all that.

    Also since I play on console and don’t intend to move to pc, I’d really like if they gave extra care to the console game.

    I agree with you. Regarding #4 I have written a post a while back about it, give it a read it might interest you.
