@Ubisoft Free Guard Break After a Parry Bug (Video Included) | Forums

[Robbeeeen]

Today after some matchs i detected some irregularities, the free guard break after a parry was acting strange vs assassins when using some characters. So i decided to make some tests

To make the test i used a level 3 bot (they counter almost all the grabs) this allowed me to erase a ms problem of network (as i was playing with 0 ms) also im using a perfect guard break (after a succesfull parry, tap UP + GB and hold it, that way the hero will make the guard break with no delay) this free the possibility of a bad user.

Then i picked warden and some other characters, the results are as follow.

Currently (i didnt test all the characters) the heros that can exploit this bug are the peacekeeper, the berserk and sometimes (its random in his case) the orochi.

This exploit only work if you are vs some of the intermediate (valk, warden, etc) character or almost all the heavy characters (conqueror, raider, etc) warlord is an exception (in my tests it didnt work) if you are playing a light hero vs light hero match the bug will not work, it also happens when playing nobushi vs peacekeeper (thats why i did all of this tests)

if someone have some questions feel free to ask, as i was saying i used a perfect guard break (i explained how to do it) so player skill is not involved, only mechanical gameplay

If you can, comment in the video so one of the ubisoft team members can see this, as its a bug (im sure about orochi one, it was completely random)

Can confirm, PK gets out of the previously guaranteed GB. I did some testing vs AI couple days ago, after people were complaining about the GB not working (the bug that is being fixed soon), PK lvl3 bot didnt get out of parry-GB then. Something changed.

@OP I'm not sure what you're talking about bro.

I've recreated this with level 3 bots myself, just now.

Here are the results:

Keep in mind I sometimes stupidly didn't followup after my guardbreaks, not considering that this might confuse some people, so to clear it up, they didnt tech/counter my guardbreaks a single time during testing!

Just wanna quote this so people don't miss it.

When I tried it, it worked as it's supposed to.

Just tested it again to make sure im not insane - Berserker got out once in a couple minutes of testing, PK much more often, about 20% of the time, depending on the time of attack I was parrying.

i tested for 30 minutes+ you need to because they will counter guard break SOMETIMES, not all of the times (the ai is programmed to be like a human) i didnt get any result until minute 11 so yeah, its a bug. (not cheating)

[Kav0rk4]

So what you're saying is that for 11 minutes you hit every single guardbreak, and after that the bug just started working and they countered every single one (after 11 minutes)?

That seems really contrived, I think you were starting to be sloppy in your gameplay or something.

Or you might be right and it is actually a bug, but I can't seem to replicate it.


by the way, in each one of these videos I was fighting for at least ~6 minutes, and they didnt counter a single GB. I can try for 11 minutes and report back though, if you insist.



Also tried it against
Peacekeeper, the results were the same:

Just played a Kensei who got ouf of my GB after i parried him. No AI.
If this is not intended, something is wrong.

[Kav0rk4]

You might be missing the fairly narrow guardbreak window after the parry (PROTIP: If you spam it, it wont always work)

[NotMacgyver]

Finished testing and i can safely say with a good degree of certainty that this is due to a stat on gear (at least on kensei) however not sure which 1.

Tested by playing both brawl and dominion (can reliably counter guarbreak after being parried in dominion yet not in brawl)

Also tested it by creating duels with gear stats on and the bot will counter the guardbreak after a parried light when gear stats are on yet when off I can't seem to get them to counter it.

Or you can claim that everything you don't know about is a cheat, hack or script and just cry in the forums....up to you really

[Kav0rk4]

Judging by what we know so far, it being a cheat is a fair assumption.

Of course I considered I might be wrong, you'll notice all my videos about the so called cheaters are unlisted (yours included).


I will test the parry -> guardbreak counter on bots with gear on later tonight and report.

I knew I wasn't going crazy, I knew it. Everyone disagreed, but I stayed convicted until the end. I KNEW IT!
