Disappointed that blight hasn’t been nerfed

Thank you for your thoughfull reply.

You keep repeating that it is intentional feature without any proof or source from Devs where they say that it is.

If sliding was a feature then it would be built into his controls and his ability info - without being hidden behind people randomly finding ways to do it. Theres no controls programmed in to do it, its just an exploit. If someone can do it properly theres almost no escape against those blight players.

It's a forum. No-one has to ask. It's in the name, hoss.

That literally is an intended functionality McLean put in. He capped it to 90 in a single frame, and J flicks were removed because there was a way to use hyper DPI to break that cap. The only way to go past 90 is to preturn before flicking. If he didn’t want that to be possible, he wouldn’t make that how it works. 90 means Blight hits someone directly to his side. You’re literally asking for a sidestep to make a power useless.

Feel free to post some video evidence then. I have no clue what you are talking about.

The only possible thing that comes to my mind is lag flicking. For turning that rapidly normally like you said, you either need something to use as a basis for the turn (eg, a wall to slide around), or committing to an actual swing in which you flick/preturn and then flick/etc to achieve the sharp turn for the swing itself. Even with Adrenaline Vial, you could turn to face the side but you'd still rush mostly in the direction you were originally going (just rushing sideways from your own vision perspective): Rushing north while facing north -> Spin and rush north while facing east/west basically. Without it, you can't even turn that sharply in a normal rush. Rushing north and then suddenly rushing east or whatever with a hyper sharp turn mid-rush isn't a legitimate thing. If you want to take a 90, you'd have to slowly veer towards that direction in closer to a circle's edge.

Both. McLean (his creator) made the second component of his Rush collision detector work off of camera angle, so that you can lower it to reduce the collision, and thus slide. He also specifically said he wanted Blight to have the ability to pick to slide or slam.

i dont see anything wrong with blight

you can dodge his charge

if you want to talk about nerfs : BUBBA, DOCTOR, NURSE

McLean said that HUG TECH is a bug what now blight mains?!!!!

Did you really spam this in every Blight thread, with caps, like a child screaming 'I'm right! Nyah-nyah!'?

Blight’s collision code was based on his camera angle being low to the ground, and when they raised his camera angle, the collision code broke for many of the objects in the game. Blight would now slide uncontrollably on any object that sticks out below his waist level (like some of the tree roots and snow piles). And he also had minor issues where he would bounce off invisible objects because the collision hit boxes weren’t properly created.

Blight was given a secondary collision detection based on his camera angle, as a band aid fix to these collision problems, and we were told we could use camera angles to help decide whether we wanted to bump or slide off of an object. This never fully worked as intended, as it still can't ever force a bump, so we will still slide uncontrollably on some objects no matter what our camera angle is. This also caused the "hug tech', which was bug reported the week it went live, so the devs have known about it for a very long time.

It’s been over a full year, and they still haven’t fixed his collision problems. Instead they made things worse by adding new things to the reworked maps, which causes Blight to have collision issues in places that weren’t problems before, like shacks with the new small rock wall along the ground.

TDLR "hug tech" is a bug. The devs spent months trying to fix his collision issues and failed, and Blight might need a total code rework (like they just did with Nurse) if you want his collision problems to be fixed.
