Guard break not working properly | Forums

[tcs1991.ts]

Yeah feels off. Specially against faster classes, but the window is later.

I really don't understand this change, you have to break it later rather than earlier now, not only does it not make any sense but why is it an undocumented change in the notes of beta to release?

You really dropped the ball on this one, there was really no reason to change how guard break counter functions.

May be a bug. This isn't the same version that was run in OB

[Zea1ot]

This is unacceptable, now the GB cancel is completely random, if u wanna make it harder to cancel then make less window but not delay on cancel

[Derity]

Yeah so I tested it and now how it works is like this:

You have to wait until the person actually grabs you and then immediately press Guardbreak to cancel it.
If you Press Guardbreak at ANY POINNT before this, all further Guardbreak attempts will FAIL.

I do not know why this changed happen, essentially Guardbreak now is harder to cancel than ever, so yeah - go Guardbreak everyone guys, Guardbreak OP right now.

no. In the OB it was earlier to interrupt, now its a bit later. timing is just different, after the red shield flashes, before the guardbreak connects.

Well, actually its a bit easier, as it lets you guard break at a later moment (edit from day oO) takes the twitchiness out of it.
But you need to get used to it, I agree.

No it's actually worse now because like I said they also implemented something that makes it so if you press it too early now, all further Guardbreak attempts automatically fail.

Before, there was a tiny room for error that meant you could press the Guardbreak button again if you pressed it slightly before the actual window.

Now you are severely punished for predicting your opponents actions, which in my opinion is rediculous.

The new counter GB is fine and makes sense. I guess the animation and timing were off in beta and now its how its supposed to be.

Hey, the game is out for about 10 hours and people is mad complaining.... maybe we should merely learn HOW TO PLAY. You talk like you all are overpowered gurus with the supreme truth in your mouth. It's simple... train more and feel familiar with this, and you will soon master again this particular movement. It's no so dramatic guys, don't be ratboys.
