De-Sync / Ability Queue 🚨 - Official petition to change combat back to 1.3 before "February's patch"

Who can help me to find the video which was posted on the forum of a Sword And Shield player who is being cancelled by light attacks when he try to cast abilities?? It was a really good video. It was posted the 28th of february i thinks, or maybe 1 or 2 days later.

I love the patch, no issues here (3).

Literally everyone is desyncing… it’s not us. It’s definitely the servers or code.

One of the proofs came from Shroud. Twitch

Moments like this makes me want to quit the game. How is melee supposed to be viable in any way in a meta like this? The only job a bruiser has these days is throwing Grav well…

Posting this here by request and hoping i didnt do it wrong. Hopefully the dev team has some response to CMs passing along my feedback, but who knows. I want them to just take an honest look at the root debuff and decide whether or not it is worth it vs just changing roots to 90% frostbite. You cant dodge in frostbite which is a huge reason why roots matter anyway. If you could iframe in root it would likely be weaker than frostbite anway.

AGS is putting way too much responsibility on the players to test/troubleshoot new mechanics. We paid to play a functioning game. Nobody asked for roots to be some super high priority “they must be rooted in this exact spot at all costs” mechanism. Its clearly bugging out the servers.

If devs ignore this post, we’re doomed.

Was asked to share my video here. It shows the stutter that is happening to attacks when hit by an attack (melee/ranged/ability). When I originally made this video, I was under the impression it was just happening to VG Blade. Apparently it’s all melee… oof. Based on some other posts I’ve read on the forums, I think the devs are at least aware of the issue? But I’ve not seen it on a “known bugs” post.

How this isn’t a more urgent issue to devs is very concerning

Would rather them fix the issues with the current system than go back to having to sheath your weapon every time you dodge. Reverting patches is, generally speaking, a bad idea.

Oh so that’s why everything suddenly feels different with void blade. Before the Feb patch I could heal back up using voracious blade in enemy groups when low hp and now its just been a nightmare.

Its just problem on top of problem. You know something feels different with gameplay but don’t know the cause of it because so much stuff is just broken after every patch.

Correct. There is also an issue introduced with this patch where your blade will get stuck half out and you cannot use abilities, weapon swap, or dodge… only use the first atk in the light atk combo. You just have to wait for blade to wear off. I’ll have this happen 4+ times in one OPR. You can see that bug here: Void Gauntlet, void blade - unplayabe - #3 by chillycheese

But this is the main issue. VG Blade more than any other weapon benefits from landing your light atks. It both reduces your CD and keeps you alive through lifesteal. I run VG/hammer in heavy armor and was pretty difficult to kill before this patch. Now I just crumple bc I cannot get CDs down or heal myself hah.

I’m finding this patch incredible infuriating. “why do i keep playing” i say every time i play opr and war. The lag is unbearable and the pvp is unplayable.

Compare pre patch:

to post patch:

If anything the pre patch example exhibits way more abilities with little to no lag, than the post patch example being chased by one spear.

Just straight unenjoyable in its current state. Yet here i am…logging on everyday excited and logging off disappointed.
Come on dudes, pull your pants up. :confused:

I really don’t know what to say but if it carries on this way its gg.

this is literally why more people are quitting this patch. This ONE garbage change that ruined an entire patch that was full of great QOL. Now we have gone two weeks with this infuriating experience.
