Wake up ubi (also replying to the "shut up with light spam")
ADDED COMMENT TO THE "Shut up with light spam"
Im telling you that I've been able to block 70 percent of the fastest light attack characters ( orochi, shaman, conq, etc..) and after this update light attacks are nearly impossible to block because now you have to literally guess where to block because they are technically now 400 ms.. y'all should know on console there tends to be bad delay already if you are on controller so add that to the ridiculous 400ms lights and you're not gonna be able to block it unless your guard is already on the side your opponent is going to with these sped up light attacks. If they were going to turn this game into all prediction for defense then they should have done that at the beginning of the release its ridiculous that veteran players are being forced to change characters on these ridiculous nerfs and forced to mash buttons because theres no longer any defensive play in the game all because of people smashing the light button. I'd destroy people who did that before this update all day because I was able to block and parry lights but now light spamming is more reliable due to the fact of how difficult it is to block now on CONSOLE. Every time I throw a heavy without hyper armor in big game modes or even duels/brawls against the typical characters like the new hero or shamen or black prior... etc. They just throw lights to interrupt it.. now before the update I could bait this into a light parry 60 percent of the time but now that they are so unreactable I have a hard time just blocking it let alone parrying it. Put the game back the way it was because you've literally turned this into button mashing fest. I wouldn't see what the big deal would be anyway... lights weren't the easiest to react to before but if you put the time in and practiced it you could block 70 percent of them before the update and you could even parry them a good amount too. Thats what this game should be about. It should reward players who actually take the time to practice and get better and strategize instead of handing the win to players just because they mash buttons and use broken feats or use certain heroes.... you guys cant just throw away defense in this game just because people dont take the time to create their own strategies and openings... thats what separates button mashers from good players. Having lights that are difficult but possible to react to with practice is what the game should be like because when you have two good players that can react it forces them to use other strategies to open eachother up... like feints, mixups, heavy attacks etc... however yall have made lights so reliable now that nobody is doing that anymore because it leaves no incentive to do that when you know your opponent is only gonna be able to block 20 percent of your lights.... fix this problem ubisoft and wake up... this is the kind of critical thinking you as developers should be doing but instead you have your player base doing it for you and telling you the obvious... its time for a change. Wake up.
