I block Kylo Ren's freeze ability while playing as Luke. Screen grays out but I can still turn my player. Then when I unblock I become frozen as if I never blocked. This may also happen with Vader's choke or Maul's throw. Not fully sure

  • @undertakerhs is quite right the darksides force powers are quite buggy in that sense, it's not limited to Kylo. Maybe it's the blocks that are buggy. Who knows let's just hope it gets fixed this has been going on for a long long time now. 

  • I have noticed also some weird dynamics of blocking, like you lose ability to block, rmb not responding, or that you cannot move while blocking... happens occasionally, but not rarely. With the amount of blocks, it is occasional, though not common. I did not notice a pattern though. Never experienced the effect you mentioned with Luke or Rey against Kylo. I think you have blocked at too late, or you were not in the correct angle facing him. It is possible that you block was bugged as mentioned above.

    I miss the old lightsaber dynamics from BF 1 EA

  • Agreed that I have also had it where you can't block at all until your next respawn. Nothing to do with stamina.

    But I was directly facing kylo and I was blocking way before he froze me. Other people in game have noticed this happening too.

    Thanks for the Reference @Rogue_Manda_YT

    It's really easy to trigger the Half-Block BUG (how I call the BUG described on this thread). It requires a good timing, but is actually easy to nail it. I'm yet to make a video only on this BUG, but DICE keeps on ignoring my request of allowing us a testing platform, which could simply be allowing Arcade Splitscreen to be played on PC, where I did many tests in the past when the mod created by the community worked properly.

    Now without the mod nor a Console, I can't do most of the tests I have in my list waiting for answers.
