All you need to know is that AGS is handling this game.
CMs confirmed that they want to milk players by drip feeding us already existing classes for "the longetivity of the game" & from a "business intelegence" standpoint & not taking in considiration the player feedback they listen but they're saying the classic "you think you do but you don't"

Bot infested slum (70% of the player count).

Since 2017 the For Honor Team has done the following:

Added Dedicated Servers (NO MORE LAG/HOST MIGRATION, Also allows for team shuffling and increasing stability)

Rebalanced 3 heroes, and done complete overhauls of 2.(they said they'll rebalance/rework other older heroes in the upcoming seassons)


Done numerous adjustments to the entire cast


Fixed the turtle meta (This is basically where people don't throw out attacks and just focus on parrying and parry counters, which leads to you staring at your opponent for long periods of time where they do nothing.)


Added tons of new outfits, emotes, and executions


Implementing a new Arena Mode which allows for new players to learn basic and advanced tactics in For Honor,
also allows players to practice against/with certain combos, and see their stamina usage and damage


Halloween Event with a mask, emote, and limited time gear (Werewolf Emote)


Christmas Event with a mask, emote, and limited time gear (Snowball Fight Emote)


One Year Anniversery Event with a mask, emote, and gear (They gave us a salt emote, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ A)


Created the Warriors Den, where the Devs tell us exactly what's going on with the game, and their plans for it.


Fixed steel gain to make it easier to gain steel without feeling the grind


Rebalanced Gear Stats so creating an OP hero in mode where gear stats apply is impossible to do. (See: Revenge Builds, PK and Nobushi Season 1 if you want to know what I mean)


There was never any Pay to Win, you couldn't buy certain gear with certain stats, you had to play to Reputation level 7 (Which took quite a bit of time) to get gear with these insane stats. This wasn't a fix, I just wanted to squash this misconception.


EXP Gain feels much better, but is still a little grindy


The Devs do double EXP fests every so often, they also do other various community events


COMPELTELY OVERHAULED the faction war, now theres tactical territories, war banners, and troop numbers for each territory


Nerfed any problematic moves or combos on heroes, and gave those heroes different tools to work with.


Added a new mode that relies on teamwork (Tribute). Basically Multi-Flag CTF that gives buffs (Radar, Damage, Defense) when returned to your base.


Changed AFK kick system to make it so you get banned on your first offense (5 days), and your account gets wiped on the second offense. The game knows if you are just in a place with no enemies, or if you are AFK at base, plus, THESE REPORTS ARE REVIEWED BY REAL PEOPLE, MACHINES DONT DO THE BANNING, HUMANS DO


Overhauled the report sytesm to be much more through and specific as to the offense.


Added 6 new, unique heroes that all feel fun to play

- SOME These characters were overpowered at launch, but have since been fixed (See: Shaman, Centurion, Shinobi)

- SOME of these characters were underpowered at launch, but have since been fixed (See: Highlander, Aramusha)


TL;DR: The For Honor team has established consistent, effective communication, implemented Dedicated Servers, added a metricshitton of new content, and has maintained and refined core mechanics to help welcome new players, and keep veterans interested. All in all, the game is significantly more stable, and feels fresh as ♥♥♥♥ everytime you login.

Best zombie game!
