I keep getting stunned off regular punches. Not counters, not haymakers. Just regular punches. I'll be leaning in and out of the way of my opponents punches (offline) and i'll get hit with a jab, cross, or rarely hook. And it's always while I'm leaning, blocking, or both. And the next thing I know I'm flashing red and my guy is almost dead completely. I'm doing a heavyweight 'double elimination' tournament with some friends so I was practicing with some different boxers.
As Tyson I landed 469 of 812 punches through 12 rounds, I was knocked down 4 times, and stunned 36 times (I counted, obviously).
My opponent landed 132 out of 571 punches, was knocked down twice, and was stunned 8 times.
Based on those numbers it's a frickin' miracle for my opponent that the fight went past 4 rounds. But it did, it went the distance. I was able to KO him in the last minute of the 12th round. But the only reason it went that long is because everytime I mounted offense I'd get hit with some weak punch like a cross, a cross that is NOT a counter-punch, and that's it, tyson would have a quarter inch of health left and I'd be off to the races. This happened 36 frickin' times. I would say out of those 36, 2 were legitimate stuns off counters or haymaker-counters.
Now I'm not amazing at the game, I'll probably never win an online title belt. But I'm alright. Pre-patch this wasn't happening. Last night I tried different fighters in different weight classes and the same thing kept happening. Again, this only started two days ago and I've had the patch for 4 days.
Did they implement the 'perfect punch' where if you get hit perfectly if you're leaning at an awkward angle you get stunned? I'm pretty confused. I don't mind getting stunned, knocked down, or knocked out, I enjoy losing. But this is just getting absurd. Even my fiance who knows nothing about video games outside of a wii was like wow. you hit him so many times and he hits you once and your guy is like dead, that's kinda unfair isn't it? Or is the game just supposed to be really hard? Bless her soul. haha.
I just wanted to know if anyone else had been experiencing this or if anyone knows why this is happening all of a sudden?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
