is it just me or is kiting made weirder?

[Echsrick]

since the year of the clockwork, kiting certain things just...feels differend, like more so moving away and then when i press and hold F, instead of my character just goin instandly towards the enemy, he just stands there for half a second before goin for the attack, pigs became way more difficult to fight because of that half a second standing still where it feels like i have to be frame perfect to be able to even hit them...i dont know how others feel

Is your lag compensation on? That's the only thing I can think of. I always turn that thing off.

 

 

[Wawchik]

Didn't feel anything like that

do you play locally, or on a public/remote server? it could be general lag. 

what character do you play with? WX-78 with an Axe and Spin-Cycle does have an odd animation lag thing when using F, but only sometimes.

The last time kiting felt different to me was when Wanda came out and a bunch of enemies got changed instead of Wanda's watch having its stagger be reduced. Tallbirds and Mactusks have been so obnoxious to kill ever since.

Here's the thing - no, you are not crazy. The knight, rook and bishop did change the behavior to fight, some changes more in our faces like the whole overhaul on bishop VFX, another more subtle. The knight slips thought the hits because of stagger resistance, that being a thing once Wanda was introduced, then when Walter for a skill tree, and the rooks are smarter to charge, stop midway when they miss the mark, attack speed raised due the same. It's more aggressive, less wonky. 

The pigs are a good visual on the stagger resistance nerf, same as tall birds. First hit does it, then they enter in a cool down of a couple seconds till it can be staggered again.

These changes has a while tho. Probably noticed because of the bishops, but you taking this much time to realize doesn't make it all too recent, just didn't paid attention to it till now.

i guess? i mean i guess i never noticed that my character just stands still after i press A to dodge the attack and then instandly press F only for my character instead of instandly goin for the attack just standing still it feels like for half a second

I think Klei’s updates are either adding stealth changes that they do not bother to mention in patch notes, OR there are some unforeseen bugs happening that have yet to be reported.

When year of the Cawnival event first started I could barely find 1-2 bird seeds walking around forever, but after a recentish update bird seeds seem to be spawning far more frequently. Maybe I’m delusional, or maybe these actually are stealth changes..

I can say that last night was the first time in my 13 year history with the franchise that I have EVER seen a tumbleweed roll off the edge of land and sink into water.. 

So yeah like I said: Bugs that haven’t been reported yet, OR stealth gameplay changes not mentioned in patch notes.

I understand now because this DID happened to me exactly when that specific update came out. But at one point this bug just disappeared. I don't know exactly what I did to fix it, but I vividly remember this happening to me.

It could've been this setting right here.

[Hi.]

This does happen to me sometimes as well but im pretty sure its not related to any setting. It's probably just lag because it really only happens to me on pubs. (Or some under the hood stuff that no one noticed)
