Sword broken

  • Could we finally get a fix to the sword as its been broken for ages?

    Blocking a full combo and hitting and enemy after it just means you die and they live. Enemeis constantly swing through your hits at you.

    Please, its 1/4 weapons we get to choose from and its stupidly broken.

  • All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.

    Good visual example.

  • It’s pretty sucky. Biggest turn off for me with the sword. I like it for mobility on smaller ships, but that doesn’t mean much when I get hit by someone who isn’t using the sword but someone with the longest fingernails in the world. That must be the only explanation!

  • @mintharp184509 Yeah I've noticed the same about bucketing and other such activity. Maybe they had to switch it server side in order to get rid of some sort of cheats / exploits? Since as far as I've heard they are only running anticheat server side.

    Still, the sword is at such a horrible state it needs to be a high priority in fixing. Its a very core aspect of the game.

  • @mintharp184509 Yeah I really dont understand how the sword was perfectly fine before, then they broke it, and just went with "Yeah thats fine". Like how do you make an aspect of the game worse and then leave it like that? I love this game and it makes me sad to see something like this not be an absolute highest priority.

    You're wearing rose-tinted nostalgia glasses and can't see clearly as a result. The sword wasn't perfectly fine; pirates were abusing animation and input exploits.

    It's actually pretty good now; the only reason it isn't is the same reason as all of the other weapons - hit-reg, which is an entirely separate issue that Rare is still trying to fix.
