    Nobushi Hidden Stance

    I've been playing a bunch of Nobushi today and I noticed that it's kind of uncomfy for me to use Hidden Stance. The reason for this is that the radius to use Hidden Stance seems to be far too narrow to properly hold with a controller. Just a small nudge to the side and i'm either dropping it or I don't get it at all because I was like 1° off mark. Since you can hold it and attack or sidestep out of it, dropping that at the wrong moment is just a bad thing to happen. Furthermore it's kind of annoying if you want to quickly use it to dodge and counter and you just miss the zone and do nothing except taking a hit. I think it would be nice to have a wider radius for Down-Tech in general, since I assume the same thing will happen when using a controller on the Conquerer.

    Edit: Having the option to adjust every radius would be even better.

    Edit 2: So i brought up my controller config today and noticed what might be the problem. The axis used for right and left seems to have a much higher priority in the game than the one for up and down. So it might actually be a problem with the deadzone for left and right actions instead of the radius itself. If we could set the deadzone for the control stick in the game, that would be nice.

    Edit 3: Visualization of the issue

    Same

    I'm having this exact issue. In the heat of battle, I'm often unable to use Hidden Stance because the R stick has to be in a very, very exact spot. More often than not, I end up getting hit by my opponent when I fall out of the Stance. I thought maybe it was just my controller so I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with the issue.

    This seriously needs to be addressed.

    Same I'm only able to use the Stance to adjust my weapon to land more strikes like if they sidestep I use the hidden stance to cancel my attack animation but similar to Orochi's parry you have a small windown to dodge someone's overhead or else it doesn't come out.

    I have to agree with you

    The amount of times i fall out of the stance due to me being a couple of degrees off is ridiculous, they realy need it to be either remapped or increase the sensitivity of the stance.
    I seriously love this character and theyre great fun to play if the hidden stance does work and annoying tank characters like the warlord is hilairious.
    Please i beg of you ubi fix this, the game seemed more playable in its alpha stage and im seriously contemplating cancelling my pre-order.
