B(u)Gs

Same old same old…

1. First champ auto drafted without any chance to correct
2. Random AI parry mid-combo
3. Reversed controls against champs who don’t have reversed controls.

Suggestion: take some of the loot from July 4 to deep dive into what’s wrong with game mechanics.

Along with the bugs listed above, I’ve had 2 matches where they ended on 2nd round (despite me winning the 1st round), and of course giving me the loss.

Fun and interactive game mode!

Oh and of course whenever a random champs gets drafted it's always one of the champs you wouldn't like to use lol

I had a weird one earlier.

Draft and choosing champs for first matchup was all fine.

Played the first match and KO’d the defender.

Then it went to the calculating results screen - as though the other person had forfeited. Except it showed the result of my previous match. I pressed whatever button is there and it then went back to the first fight screen, both champs at 100% health and immediately timed out! The ‘calculating results’ and fight timeout (still first fight champs) sequence cycled 2x more times before the game decided I had forfeited and gave me the loss.

I have WAY too many to name but this stuff is just seriously demotivating man and IT IS COSTING RESOURCES!!!! I applaud the move to get people of out of the loop but the very reason it was necessary is still happening. You get thrown into a loop because of all this connection bugs, gameplay oddities etc.

Titania literally stops during 5 hit combo to stand still. No problem .. match is over SP3 heavy chain .. cool NOPE .. go into do the heavy chain and heavy attack fails to register .. TWICE!

AA vs anyone .. no problem .. parry and do my usual thing. NOPE. heavy fail. parried during a 5 hit combo. 5 hit combo doesn't throw the final hit.

I mean the list goes on with the kind of mess that happens that completely loses the match or severely interrupts the flow of the match.

And it's not even worth it to say "fix it".

Yep same old same old.

We are in season 9 of BG, plus a few Beta run, so also coming up to a year, and still...

Instant KOs, it is gettinf real old.

Plus I found a new bug, auto drafted but on the 7th Champ, that one caught me off surprise.

I’ve had the first two happen. Plus, I had a champ drafted when another one was selected. That was fun.

Anyone else getting massive lags during all animations be it be moving between tiles or during the fight itself?
Not blaming this to input drop, but the massive lag is painful.

I have my tinfoil theory on this:
Whenever kabam is doing somthing somthing to the servers in the background, these things happen. What are you updating?
I also know this thing will vanish tomorrow.
But Goddam, please return the server maintenance instead of doing this.

DrZola

Not the first mention of this, but I will add that parry timing (and parry altogether) is very off.

Honestly, at this stage of the game and BGs, there should be more than enough data gather on poor functionality to actually do something about it.

Plus: why do I always have the WiFi symbol up with this game?

I'm getting parried but not seeing any kind of block animation. Multiple times over the weekend.

I think its due to arena's visual updates that they did recently.

Am I the only one who hasn’t had any of these bugs (except the 1st champ auto draft)?

I'm having a very hard time with Parry lately, particularly in BGs.

Although I was assuming that it was just me getting old and slow 😉

BENNYJ

All the above. Plus strikers are whiffing and/or being parried.

Drago_von_Drago

Only played one BG match so far this season but definitely noticed parry timing being off compared to other game modes. I played some arena and a few paths in 8.3 right after and didn’t have the same timing as the BG match. I’ve also had the WiFi symbol up most of the day today.

It isn’t just you. Blocking is optional, parries are off and the dex window is tighter than rusted lug nut.

My favorite this afternoon is getting parried by a backtracking defender—twice consecutively. Call it the “fadeaway parry”…
