Ah, these implements will be interesting to see in-game. I am glad to see the bash getting some use for melee weapons!
WWAUT - Melee Improvements
- Thread starter Yoshiro
- Start date
1. Does the new parry animation release blue sparks from your weapons?
2. If you land 16 in a row do all the clots start cheering?

Because bash doesnt work 50% of the time if you get grab by clots and there are more zeds in your face. But I am not sure they are referring to bash?
Btw, this is the first WWAUT that contains actual information for players instead of potential buyers by providing hype. This is a very good step in the right direction, please keep up the good work.

So does "being able to block while moving" mean you can sprint while blocking, or does it not?
I can't remember any time when I thought "damn, I wish I would be going full speed while blocking right now." I just can't see the practical application of this.
Also, as useless as this addition is, I'll honestly be amazed if this change isn't Zerk-specific.

blocking is simply what it sounds like, you are blocking yourself from getting full damage. Parrying is when you time a block at the exact moment before he hits so and causes them to "stumble", open to a huge counter attack.
Also, will the katana "stab" animation be the same as Rising storm's katana stab when you are prone?
I would imagine you guys would reuse the animation since you guys already did it in RS. Also, because the sheathing of the katana is the same of RS.

i dont get it. did he say a release date for the update ? or did we have to wait for a unknown time?
This is how the Fleshpound will warn you if you can't parry his attacks
(Too bad he has a metal plate covering his eyes, so Scrake will do the job )

I like the stab for bashing. it will give more attacks to work with and I love it.
I do hope moving at normal speed while blocking is only for berserker, along with a larger reduction in damage compared to other classes.

Binding bash to a mouse thumb button is now even more mandatory. It feels wrong if all but one of your attacks is on the mouse.
Melee changes are very welcome! I always hoped attacks could get directional with mouse movement too, not just walk movement (which seams it need quite a long time of walking before it accept it for attacking direction). Was wondering how good such system would be with parry/block too. For example if scrake is doing a uppercut attack you could parry with horizontal block and if it tried pirouette attack you could block with vertical.
Atm their attacks got quite big animation time before they hit you, so you got plenty of time to notice you need to block too. If during that time you need to figure out HOW to block and not just to press block, it's take some interesting skill on player side.

Judging what I have heard and read around, I don't think they can reset perks very many times, it would make considerable amount of players angry and potentially damaging themselves by doing that.
I'm fine with the perk resets any day.
I would guess at some point during testing they would just set all perks to max level so people can try everything out. Compared to the amount of people that have played Early Access I imagine a very small percentage actually made it to max level on any perk.
