So many bugs, it is pretty much in the worse state possible since several months ago. Anankin's Heroic Might is ruined.Kylo was nerfed when it was totally unnecessary.Grievous is unbeatable now. Why you allowed him to kill full life heroes with just one ability? Its F****** ridiculous. FIX HIM, or change him back to how he was before the scariff update. He has completely destroyed the balance in HvV mode. TOTALLY DESTROYED IT.You CAN'T make changes in the game that totally ruin it and then abandon the game leaving it in an unplayable state. It is simply a SHAME.Maul hit boxes and block ARE A MESS. He cant hit most of the times, and many times block simply does not work.Why you had to change things that were not on the ideal state but at least they worked well in general to this JOKE OF A BALANCE for the mode? FIX THE MODE. Dont you dare to leave the game in this state after all of this time. DONT-YOU-DAREIve not played almost 4000 hours of this game and suffered and enjoyed it all along these years to see you ruin it just at the end of the road. NO SIR.FIX IT. Its not a petition, Its a DEMAND and if you are true professional developers you know you cant leave it in this state.

I think it’s fine. I mean, if Big G uses his ability you can just...walk backwards

Now my problem is with all of the new players joining on ps4 it is either you destroy the enemy team which is comprised of new ps+ players or you get a team of them and they run into a 1v4 like chicken heads and you end up losing the match like 0 to 34. I am not against new players but after yesterdays session that kinda started annoying me. And I definetly agree that GG spinning in circles over my poor han is a problem.

Grievous is “nearly” unbeatable. He has two abilities that cannot be blocked (but can be dodged).Unrelenting Advance cannot be blocked; it can be dodged and this is often your best bet depending on what character you’re using. Grievous is vulnerable from behind but since they buffed his movement with the ability only a few characters have the dodge to actually do it (Luke, Rey, & Kenobi).Claw Rush is just SUPER BROKEN. I cannot speak for PC but on console, you cannot block this ability. You “can” dodge it, however, the timing has to be pin point precise and given the state of the servers it’s unlikely to register. Claw Rush having buffed mobility means that even if you manage to dodge once you may not be able to again if you’re using a character like Annikan or Yoda who can’t dodge to the degree that Grevious can move. What’s more is that Claw Rush shouldn’t be able to register multiple hits ... ever! The cool down of all Grevious’s abilities is so short he can essentially ability spam back to back. Even if you manage to dodge Claw Rush as a saber user it’s damage output / stam drain is so much that unless you’re full stam the ability can drain you leaving you ripe to get picked off when he gets up. The state of Grevious is just one example of gameplay logic that MUST come from the Dev’s chronic drug use. I can’t think of any other reason such poor thinking could make its way into the game. Other broken foolery in HvV:*Why is it STILL that all shooters can fire while in a knock down?!? A shooter that’s knocked back / knocked down continues to fire almost non stop rendering the knock down useless. What’s the point?!? *Why was Kylo nerfed?! I’ve been saying this for almost a year; Kylo is now the weakest villain and unless you’re a 10/10 with using him he’s not worth your time; and even then, you better have a solid squad. Kylo is the only character who is exposed to harm by using an ability (Frenzy). Not only can Frenzy not resolve elevation changes on maps but the AOE is WAY to small, with all the increases to dodging it often isn’t available, & Kylo can be hit, pushed, pulled, or otherwise injured by his opponent while Frenzy is active. My suggestion was that when Frenzy is activated on an enemy that the opponent would be subject to a restriction of using their abilities; (similar to Kenobis) for the duration of Frenzy. Opponents can still block and dodge but can’t use abilities... characters like Yoda with his hit box, and Luke with his mobility can push Kylo during Frenzy and take zero damage. * Why was splash damage for Iden’s Alt Fire never added? The same can be said for Han’s Detonate Charge. It’s lunacy that a character can detonate a high yield explosive next to themselves and take no harm. This would make it more strategic to use these abilities rather than just spam them. * Speaking of Han & Iden; both DC & Alt Fire should be nerfed; the damage is way too high for abilities that are completely unblockable. * Bosk needs to be heavier; Bosk is PROOF that these 30 foot hit boxes that exist when saber users jump CAN be fixed! When Bosk jumps he evades saber strikes; clearly his hit box isn’t an issue. Given the stats of his other abilities he shouldn’t be able to soar in the air; between his jump and his dodge he can effectively evade saber strikes until he can lean on his mines again. * Boba Fett needs an adjustment to his in-air knock back recovery; I don’t disagree with him being able to do it, however, it shouldn’t be so immediate. * Annakins Heroic Might ... I don’t think I even have to elaborate on this one ... although Retribution is buggy as well. Lastly ... WHO CAME UP WITH THIS NONSENSE DAMAGE EFFECT WHEREBY OPPONENTS CAN ESCAPE WITH BETWEEN 5 - 10 HEALTH!!!Honestly! You engage an opponent, put in the work to defeat them and they’re able to dodge/escape with literally a sliver of heath and run to their teammates. This is one of the most annoying aspects of the game! It’s not as if anyone’s being melted in two hits! By structuring the combat this way getting a kill can be overly drawn out. There are certain characters where this is more evident (Luke, Obi Wan, Palp, Rey, and nearly all of your shooters {not Chewbacca}). These are the largest contributing imbalances in the game and combined with the junk server state makes the gameplay feel more like a game of chance. If I wanted to play a game of chance I’d go to a casino.

GG knocked me down three times with one claw rush today by going round in a circle. And again, and again... Next match, another player does exactly the same thing.Sure, he's still easy to beat when his attention is divided, but 1v1 he can now just whip out Claw Rush and get a free kill. A terrible, pointless change that should be reverted.

Maybe you should try blocking. I play GG all the time and I can never knock the same person over twice. Cos they, y'know,, block after the first knockdown.

Heroes and Villains is totally ruined now

I don't think Gen G is unbeatable...but he is in that state if you're placed in a clueless team. But his claw rush needs to be reverted or the MASSIVE hitbox it has needs to be looked into. Leaving him at the current state is a real bad decision. All the other bugs you mentioned....most probably can't be fixed.

Claw rush and Vader in general certainly detract from the fun. I bounce back and forth between believing the developers don't adequately play test to check for balance.... to believing they simply don't care. Those are the scenarios where I just trigger a respawn.

To me, making the game free on psn is what has ruined it. I literally had to chase my teammates down on bespin in a feeble attempt to avoid the other team 4v1 saber mashing me. It was insane. They were all just running about different parts of the map by themselves, doing nothing as i got raged on. Noobs running with their heads cut off
