For Lagger - Any point to blocking anymore? | Forums

[DARTHWANGER]

Is there even any point to blocking or defense when the lag is this bad? I'm plugged in directly wired cable & controller on PS4. Ping usually at 25-35ms.

3 examples shown below for feedback.

Yep gonna be a rough time at the start with 2 Bots skipping frames. Luckily got revenge for getting bot ganked!

Bots have perfect connection so they will ALWAYS appear laggy at one point or another.

Shaolin was not doing anything out of the ordinary. He was re healing damage your client had registered as damage but then was later decided that he blocked it so it puts his health back up and plays the block sound. On top of that he heals for damage done in QI stance with his third tier feat which is nothing new.

The PK was at the absolute bottom of the board in that match so clearly it was a problem only you were experiencing.

To answer your question, at this point its better to be the aggressor, observe behaviours, and make reads to counter their unreactable offense. Based off all of your posts and the frequency of these problems I am gonna propose that you might be at fault for these problems and that nobody here is actually cheating. Your network type could be very restrictive and be interfering with your connection resulting in this behaviour in the game.

Thanks for your feedback, and I do play all characters so I'm familiar with the Shaolin feat from Qi stance but this was ridiculous. It honestly felt like his attacks were hitting before the markets even came up. I'm not saying he or anyone in the lobby was cheating just that we had a terribly laggy lobby to start & it seemed to get worse as more players were joining. Everything was literally unblockable, so you're right that all I could do was throw out attacks to hope that something would connect.i constantly keep tabs on my connection and it is hardwired in ping is stable around 25-35ms. I am playing on the west coast in the LA area so maybe everyone is streaming due to the quarantine which is bogging down everyone's networks!

Forgot to mention that the PK & Orochi were late to join in the match & things seem to get really unstable.

Yes forgot to mention that these clips were all over the course of about 10 games. I'm just venting some frustration with the videos to show what I'm seeing to see if other players are experiencing the same thing. I should just switch to different lobbies, but seems like sometimes it takes a while to find a game. For Honor is a lot like golf: it's terribly frustrating most of the time, but you get that one good shot or win & you want to keep going! Hope there will be a new and improved For Honor on next gen systems!
