FYI

For honor uses a peer to peer connection system for matchmaking. Not your usual dedicated servers. So lag or not depends on who is host and who is connecting to the host.

The Host of course will have no lag at all, however for clients that join, your game connection stability will depend on the host's connection , your own connection, as well as the distance between host and client.

So if you join a host who uses dial up (lol) or who is located in US/UK, you're screwed. There should be a setting in game to allow you to connect to people that are "near" you, but that will cause your matchmaking pool to dwindle, which might increase matchmaking time because I assume that most players are from US/UK. I hope it is not true.

I am holding back from buying this game because I am not too sure on the above. Hope to get some honest feedback here.
