    Input Issues with my Beserker

    I never post around here because usually its just poison.

    Now if i ever have an issue with for Honor i use the search bar and usually find the same complaint followed by a GET GOOD Remark.

    So i do just that "GET GOOD" works everytime.

    This time however i am completely stumped and a bit triggered by what i have been experiencing. First off it take a HUGE HEAP of **** to trigger me. Ill play with the same UB3R TRYHARD SPAM ***** 20+ times losing and getting wrecked before i get an even tad bit flustered. Even DCs don't phase me (excluding the single game were my team had the sycing message ever 5 seconds 37 times before it crashed).

    So what i have been experience is a HUGE delay in Guarding on my Bezerker. The delay is more common after being hit. I can litterally spam guard in a single direction "for testing purposes" and my character will not Guard. Now before you ask i do understand how assasin guard works. To add to this i cannot Parry due to it not detecting said guard. Now what makes this even worse is the same delay is on my dodge! It just refuses to move. Even more so instead of dodging i do a jumping top light or regular light (could be me inputting to quickly) and that throws me off and gets me killed.

    Now think about this? I litterally "cannot" guard, parry or escape medium to fast combos. Before you throw out "lack of skilll" i did not have this problem before patch. I just can't seem to grasp WTF is going on. I just cannot stress enough... I have literally given my enemy free kills just to see if i can block or dodge through their attacks and just can't.

    I also tested that when i am parried if i stand my ground i am unable to counter a GB.

    Other than that im good, well 3rd party GBs seem pretty hard to handle in 1v2+.

    Anyone else notice this or have any suggestions besides "Get Good"? Im still working on that.

    I'm having the same issues man. Parry, deflect are near impossible to pull off now. I was consistently performing them before the patch.

    I have a very similar problem. I think it must be connection-related, because it works much much better with bots in 1x1.

    Yes! I actually came here just to see if others were posting about this - I've definitely noticed a change for the worse when playing my Berserker. Guard just seems to not change or re-activate fairly frequently now, especially after a light hit. A valk can literally just spam light attack on one guard direction and, even with me constantly activating my guard, several of the attacks still go through.

    I've also noticed my dodge direction frequently lags behind my actual stick input now too (like I'm moving forward, then stick left and dash - and it dashes me forward instead of left).

    I did notice something was off at some point and I thought I was just some rust monster on my Zerker. It's starting to get old now.

    The issue I have with the Berserker is that sometimes the sidestep and hit with the dodge is very finicky, I use it so often it becomes second nature. But sometimes my guy just sits there like an idiot and does a light attack instead of doing a sidestep and attack. This is so lethal toward me as I always do that right when they are about to hit.

    I have similar problems but with LB.
    It does not happen in all games (but in about 90%).

    I'm pretty much like the OP and can not easily triggered by anything.
    Maining LB means a lot of getting your *** wrecked by simply getting outclassed, I don't mind that (winning these challenges is what it is about for me). But since the last update these strange lags/input lags (I don't really know how I should call it because I'm playing online games since more then 15 years and never expected this kind of lags) is what kinda triggering me slowly.
    I can blame myself for not being fast enough to block that top feint into warden zone (or blame myself not expecting it), etc. but when theres something I really cannot do against it starts really annoying me.

    For me it's not only the lags but since the update I have frame rate issues, and I think both are working together. While before the patch I never had frame rate problems, I now have them after playing like 1/2 a match. Constant 60 fps until sh*t starts and they randomly drop to 40-50 fps. The problem here is that in no game I had so far there are any issues with having 30 fps!!!! In For honor, fps only droping to 58 fps these input lags start to begin and the game is no longer playable. I set down the settings from medium to low and this still happens (also tried low settings with ridiculously low render scaling).
    Before the last patch (15th march something like that) I could play on medium settings without any problems.


    Blocking? nope. often does not register or whatever (i know I'm not to slow for the most blocks!)
    Parrying: If I'm lucky the attack get's blocked (what?!?) and I throw a random heavy afterwards.. That's not a thing.. If you f*ck up your parry u simply get hit!!! My normal parring rate is like 80-90% I would say, so not hitting the parry for 10 strikes in a row is not a thing I guess.
    Ok then maybe shove the enemy (Forward + GB): nope! simply perform a GB instead that whiffs into the air. (I could bet if there was no recovery time I would do a little step forward afterwards )

    There are other similar things happening, like trying to hit the enemy where all of the sudden in the middle of the strike the animation of my strike is gone and the enemy already got his strike of, like what?!? Sometimes I get myself wired hits out (that I definitely not pressed on the controller!) and kill the enemy, I mean, I won ...but .. that's not what the game is about, right?

    I know my rig is at the limit of being able to run 4Honor, but I had no problems for near to 250 hours game play! My plan was to update my rig soon either, so I will do it the next days. I will see if this will solve the (or some) problems.


    Cheers

    Yeah, there is a weird delay with the Zerker at times where you can't block, dodge, or even move.
