Why doesn't the block during the leg kick catch work half the time?

[RetractedMonkey]

This is one of the most unreliable features in the game. I had my kick caught four times in a match and each time I immediately held RT and still got hit for full damage each time.

This can't be isolated.

I havent noticed this happened to me since my kicks rarely get caught but i've seen that against some top dudes if I tap the punch really fast it tends to land more than usual.

Could be all in my head though

I’ve really noticed this lately. My opponent seems to block with 100% success so I assumed it was just me.

Good to know I'm not completely insane.
I've been blocking some and taking full damage off others and I'm holding R2 every time.

I dunno what it is, I know the ones I block are usually ones where there is a slight delay between the catch and the punch, and the ones that seem to go through the block are the instant punch off the catch types.

The is like a single instant where the game reads your attempted defense, so we cannot OS with the block, TDD and low block against the trip. Even so, I suppose we can hold our desired input.

I haven't expeciened this, yet. It's probably unrelated to what I said above, but maybe some of you can figure out a relation. I'll try to lab this in my next labbing session.

This also happens to me every time! I thought that they might have been pressing a different button as it always dealt full damage and rocked me even when my block was up. So frustrating

I had the same yesterday, out of 5 caught kicks i think i could block one of the punches thrown at me

edit: is there a specific time when the block needs to be inputted for it to work?
