Is high block going to be tweaked?

Re: Is high block going to be tweaked?

I see what you're saying, but I much prefer the way it is currently to the weak blocking from the last game.

I don't know. I don't want to be finished by someone just because I got rocked by one random strike and then I'm not allowed to protect my head. That already happens too much in Ultimate Team as it is IMO.

weak blocking was totally garbage last game; 100% accuracy at computer reaction speed --- and still could block a LOT of damage

hi/lo is definitely better than weak block; just need to tone down the strength of the block slightly

(or make it a hybrid of strong block and weak block ... making weak block VERY weak...but I don't want to give them any ideas about going back to weak block, that stuff was lame, no mind games with your opponent at all! And that's half of striking right there)

Yeah, weak block was a cancer in the last game. I'm just glad that's over with.

Slightly buff the damage blocking does to the arms. Buff bleed through damage on red arms for hooks and all power head kick strikes.

Is high block going to be tweaked in the new patch? The high block should wear down if someone is taking a bunch of shots. It should wear down like on the ground. It is too safe and people can just walk into punches.

Hmm. Why the heck aren't flash KOS in the game?

Could you imagine them with the latency the game already has? No thanks.

This is about as close to a flash KO as this game has haha

ducked under a shot; 1-2 combo followed by a short uppercut for the KD, and GnP for the TKO

Still wish we had proper one-shot KOs but oh well

Re: Is high block going to be tweaked?

This is probably the wrong thread so feel free to re-direct me.

I was unaware blocks had a negative impact on submission defense. Anyone know that what extent, and how to gauge this? And if high block impacts submission defense, does this apply equally to blocking the stomach? How about leg checks, do you become more easily leg locked for the very few fighters with leg attacks (which I can't find btw)?
