I'm very aware of the reasoning behind the changes made to head movment. In fact, reading the patch notes and seeing the changes made to the game made me want to try and play again, and I've been enjoying how things feel for the most part.
But I have what's not necessarily a complaint, I guess I'm just confused about something. Sometimes when I'm swaying away from a punch now, my counter seems to have the negation effected they just added even though I wasn't using head movement uselessly. I dodged the strike, but I moved my head like a second before I was supposed to or something I guess. I don't really know, I'm not bitching about it, I just want to know how to get around that. With how this game plays on an OG Xbox One, add in the online lag, it just feels like the game isn't responsive enough to be able to dodge the way that the new update intends us to. In an online setting at least. I'm not really seeing any issues offline that aren't related to me just needing to get better.
To summarize, post update it feels like some of my dodges are having the stopping power negated even though I wasn't doing the pre-emptive wild swaying the patch was intended to stop. Just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to fix that or if it's literally like I have to duck for a hook, side for a jab etc. or else it doesn't work because that's not the "correct" dodge. I don't know I'm just trying to figure it out because I want to get back into this game with a calmer mindset, trying to learn what I'm doing wrong instead of blaming the game.
