    For Honor dies... Not with me

    Playin' 2v2, waiting 7 minutes, getting the same guy over and over after searching "new Players". Getting pissed, restarded the game, waiting another 5 minutes for a match: Same guy. Played 2 rounds dominion, then go to 2v2, waiting 8 minutes for what? Same guy...

    Its a shame. I played since Year 2, thats why i can't stop playing it. Nobody can say, the game is getting better. Day for day, more people stop playing for Honor and i can understand this point. The ccu made lightspam harder then before on console. Weak heroes getting nerfed more and more. Aramusha, Shinobi. Warden is getting a rework... It absolutely shocked me. Yeah, i can understand it, but where is the Shinobi rework? Why we getting new heroes, that are so strong? It damages me, that for honor is getting more worse to every update. We need changes. Big changes. On Console and on PC. Its a big oppisite. Match making, rage system, heroe balancing, broken animations, console-inputlag, advantage because of a bad ping. Look at Rainbow six. Its getting better and better, but I don't play this game like for honor. Console players do not understand the problems of PC players. PC players can not understand problems of Console players. Its 2021. The Community should get a huge balancing updated. Matchmaking on all generations, balancing Updates on Console and on PC. Light nerf on console, light buff on PC. Or ubisoft make a big Change: Remove the little Input lag on Console. Then the game would also work on Console

    I know that was many ideas for changes. Many of would agree, many of you not. You have to know, that not every player is on the forum. All of my friends also think, that for honor needs big changes. Light Spam is still a problem on Console. Thank you for reading it. Have a great day

    You're correct to a degree.

    PC has horrendous matchmaking times and I've heard questionable things about PS4 times too.

    Light spam is still an issue for PS4 and Xbox One simply because:

    A) the framerates are so low that you don't see quite everything you should. This pseudo blindness makes light spam a nightmare.

    B) the input latency means you always need to be a sliver of a second ahead of the game which translates to delayed reaction times and missed parries and blocks and deflects.

    This is what you're correct about.

    Unfortunately the input lag of old gen consoles can't just be "updated" out. It's an issue of hardware and sadly, it will be that way forever.

    That being said, console for honor is amazing on my Xbox Series X. The input lag is almost non existent just like PC and it runs with 60fps. I've heard ps5 input lag is no better than ps4 or xbox one though.

    Another great thing about for honor on Xbox is the matchmaking times. I rarely wait longer than 2 minutes for duels and brawls and usually under 1 minute for dominion. This happened on my Xbox One before I even got a Series X.

    Its a shame that its such an issue. Cross platform for ps4 ps5 Xbox 1 and XBSX have better load times, but that's either a hardware advantage or larger player base advantage. I'd be nice if we could determine which.

    As a ps4, I have troubles getting groups for elimination and skirmish, but only because the matchmaking mechanic refuses to create new games. You have to JOIN a group. But if you don't make a game, no one can join the group. Grrrr....

    Edit, crossplay for console would be great. I played a lot of season 1 on pc , got to lvl 20, but I don't wish pc vs console on anyone
