It's kind of surprising that people are actually arguing in favor of being able to do stuff like counter with Red at any single point during a combo with not a lot of effort to land the hits..

Big agree. You basically described what I've been doing while testing/bug hunting with what I've been working on. I just have a Google Drive link that I upload the latest PK3s too and people update when needed. It doesn't take hours to basically re-dl 2 or 3 files. Only time consuming part is...

It's possible but currently with how things are setup with the UI, a hacky solution. Might be more cleanly feasible after all the work on the UI that's been going on, however.

That was one of the reasons why they did it, yes (also may have been in regards to triggering nudge but not sure about the timeline there). I specifically removed that to prevent being able to flail the mblock animations around to possibly negate damage (would need to lock mblock animation...

It wasn't something explicitly changed. Just observations (there's other things that are noticably crisper as well but that's just one example). I get lots of mblocks in the public build without even trying just by nature of the counter timing while that is basically a non-occurence in the beta...

The problem I have with MBC with the past public builds is that the timing for mblock has been super lax and that it promotes passive play (although this may have been more in part due to the damage multipliers + how ACM worked at the time, hard to tell). So much to the point that you can get...

Re-read my post again. Specifically where I mention how the previous times NB was tested internally or nudge was brought back in release, they were both bad iterations and how/why. This isn't the same circumstance.

Most of the gameplay at close range is left up to chance unless the person you're fighting is very predictable (you can't on-reaction PB 3+ different possible attacks from both sides on purpose) so unless we're going back to where you basically can only go from one side to the other and across...

Also would like to add that I'm fairly sure there were never any tests done with both the saber blocking and nudge in together. This was a big mistake since they are required to counter-balance each other. Saber blocking on its own is extremely annoying and can be overbearing (which is what...

I haven't had BP regen on PB in my build at any point (except maybe the leftovers from the very first iterations which was a long time ago). The amount that was present was the same as what's in the current build (+4). PB zones also have to have overlap to avoid weird issues. It's also not...

A lot of what you suggested below was tried in some form in the gunner open betas a ways back and most of what was done was met with positive feedback. There's been more discussions internally about what exactly we want to take/derive from that. Pretty sure this is still a thing so I'm not sure...

P.S. Have HUDs disabled for spectators. Was annoying in the last tournament that was done.

ok

For clarity's sake, when I refer to fidget spinner yawing, I mean the kind of yaws where people are doing upwards of 45-90 degree turns with each swing. There's a few in NA that basically have this as the basis of their play. Not sure about EU. I'm currently working on PB zone tweaks that...

Seems like most of those have changed their opinion at this point. I know a lot who think it's an improvement but don't actually like/enjoy the patch at all anymore (assuming they liked it in the first place).

I never said there wasn’t skillful yawing. That also wasn’t what I was referring to. I also dont’t despise yawing. I just find it annoying when people are flailing around and are actually some kind of decent threat when they can’t see who they’re hitting on their screen for half the duel. I...

This is going to be a lot of repeated stuff from discussions, both internal and private. I'll try to avoid rambling too much. To preface this: I've been around a long time and played in pretty much every system aside from a short break during RC2 to whatever mishmash of RC# things before v0 as...

Welcome. Enjoy the shenanigans that MB2 has to offer and don't let the hate flow through you too much if you die a lot.

The cost increase was originally done alongside stat inflation for Staff/Duals, AFAIK.

Which part are you asking why to? ok. Yes. You can attack at any point during the block anim.
