For Honor loses 95% of its playerbase

Honor

For Honor was a video game Ubisoft presented this year as one of the supposedly best games they would have this year, however. The facts speak differently because due to the problems with its online service and the absolutely insulting cost of the unlockable content have dashed the audience’s expectations. Coupled with this was a plan for boycott by some members in the community back in April. And it seems like the game is going to go from bad to worse because by May the game lost around 50% of its playerbase in Steam alone. With an estimate player base in consoles dwindling horribly as well.

The future also looked horrid for the game because it’s expected that the game will lose more players as time went by since now they lost 95% of its playerbase. After a very successful BETA where they had around 71,000 players in the game? Shows how hard of a hit this is for Ubisoft as a whole. There was a supposed spike in players and a spark of interest when the Shadow and Might expansion came around, but it didn’t last for long because a few days after, the player count dwindled once more to the point where only 3,000 players were active per week on Steam.

How to easily destroy your ambitious game with just one mistake.

I know that this game was one of the most ambitious titles by Ubisoft and that it has a deep metagame and it would be a very good eSport contender. However, back when I talked about this game in a chatroom I talked about how the problems with its Peer-2-Peer connection was going to be its downfall, Ubisoft is about to fail to deliver once again. Maybe then they will learn that releasing buggy pieces of crap will not sell them games anymore even if they turn out to be one of the most ambitious projects graphics and gameplay wise. What is going to happen after this? Either For Honor gets its plugged pulled and the servers become inactive or Ubisoft tries harder to satisfy the customers and tries to do a harder fix for the game. But still, something needs to be done.

I always wanted to be a journalist who listens. The Voice of the Unspoken and someone heavily involved in the gaming community. From playing as a leader of a competitive multi-branch team to organizing tournaments for the competitive scene to being involved in a lot of gaming communities. I want to keep moving forward as a journalist.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
