Incoming fixes for Motion Controls and an end to Invincible Super Loops

Thank you to everyone that left feedback and bug reports for the team after our most recent gameplay patch last week. Today we’re shipping a hotfix to address some of the biggest issues introduced in that patch, alongside some core systems changes based on play we saw at Combo Breaker. 

NOTE: This will be the last patch before Evo, so hit the lab and prep your tech for the big event!

Core Systems Updates

General 

  • Throws (forward & back) will now make the attacker invulnerable 
  • Push block is now more reliable and should help combat unblockable setups 

Active Assists 

  • Grounded Active Assists (Forward Assist during combo) have been adjusted to visually appear more like overhead attacks where appropriate 
  • Grounded Active Assists received a consistency pass on height to hit smaller crouched characters 
  • Grounded Active Assists now have a more consistent distance so that they will not fullscreen overhead in cases of large pushback on block (except Battle Beast whose bloodlust could not be contained) 

Motion Controls 

  • An overall priority pass has been done on special moves when using motion controls so they’re prioritized over macro buttons (dash, taunt, throw, etc) 
  • The DP > Medium input should now be more consistent (This was a bug with the input buffer on motion 2) 
  • The second forward input when doing a Manual Dash should now correctly chain into a DP input. (Previously, three forward inputs were required to Manual Dash + DP; Thanks: Chewie89) 
    • Note that DP motions are prioritized over QCF after a Dash, as with other fighting games performing a full half circle can override this priority 
  • Made adjustments so back throws (Light + Special) are more consistent  

Active Tags 

  • You should no longer be able to circumvent the Active Tag interaction with Jumping Down Heavy -> Active Tag (Heavy) 

Fighter Updates

NOTE: Any change where we state “no longer applies multiple instances of damage scaling” means a combo with this move will now result in more damage than it did before today’s hotfix.

  • Air Boosted Special no longer applies multiple instances of damage scaling 
  • Neutral Special no longer applies multiple instances of damage scaling

  • Jumping Neutral Special (and Boosted) follow-up no longer applies multiple instances of damage scaling 

INVENCIBLE 

  • Invincible’s Super 2 is now an ‘ender’ and cannot be Active Tagged (similar to Lucan Super 2) 
  • Invincible’s Back Assist will now perform his Down Special instead of Boosted Down Special, meaning it will no longer down hit and ground bounce 
  • Invincible’s Super 2 can no longer be looped into itself (we’re ending this!) 

Monster Girl 

  • Charged Jumping Down Medium no longer applies multiple instances of damage scaling

  • Jumping Down Medium no longer applies multiple instances of damage scaling 
  • Robot can once again Boosted Dash Cancel his Divekick on block 

Thula 

  • Corrected all of her Specials to no longer apply multiple instances of damage scaling. This should help her combos a lot.
