Still. Can not. Counter. Guard. Break. | Forums

Yes, I realize there is a certain timing, and I know exactly what that timing is. Yes, I realize they JUST updated it to work like it did in BETA - where I was fully able to do it. NO I STILL CAN NOT COUNTER A SINGLE GUARD BREAK.

I PRESS THE CORRECT BUTTON, AT THE CORRECT TIME, AND IT DOES. NOT. WORK.

PEOPLE ARE STILL ABLE TO COUNTER MY GUARD BREAKS FREELY, BY PRESSING THE BUTTON AT THE CORRECT TIME, AND I AM NOT ALLOWED TO DO IT.

THIS MAKES ME WANT TO KILL VARIOUS THINGS.

What platform are you playing on? As far as I know the patch has only been released on PC. The patch for console is still pending approval by Sony and Microsoft.

Jump into duel practice with a Lv 3 bot until you get the timing down. It's still never going to be perfect for the same reason you don't block every attack or parry every unblockable - sometimes you're just gonna **** it up, or fall for a feint or whatever else. But it is more doable now.

That being said it also helps to look out for common GB 'moves' - watch for when they close the gap (especially if they have an already long-reach weapon like the Kensei or Lawbringer) cos they're probably about to try and GB you.

If it's not working then you're not pressing it at the correct time.

Reverse what shouldnt be unblockable cause it's called guard breaking is a stupid thing, they should do something about it cause it starting to bore me out when people just abuse it and you can't do anything

Dude, calm down. The problem is obviously you, or your own connection. You don't need to come on here cursing like a little child lol. Are you playing on WiFi? My guess is yes, or maybe you have a crappy PC. Plenty of people deal with guard breaks just fine. Even before the unneeded nerf.

The typical bad complainer who wants to play easy *** CoD-like game and refuses to adapt and learn how to play. That's why our game gained some bad fame, ladies and gentlemen. The problem is in the casual player base not in the game itself.

I do not want to be blamed in trolling so my advance to the OP is to go to menus: How to Play> Advance Practice and learn the counter GB timing against the bot. If you play pre-patch - look for the animation where the bot/opponent puts his hand on you and you immidiately press the GB, if you play post-patch - start mashing the button as soon as you see the animation. This makes it so much easier for new players I guess.

The fact that GB is such a hit topic and most diskussions about gameplay revolve around GB is a testament of the problems with the game.

We should be talking about the cool core gameplay, the three-way attack defence system.

But instead it's all about this one button skill, wanting it nerfed for buffed.

GB should be a minor side dish - not the main course.
