Balancing Changes
| Changes | Category | Adjustment Details |
|---|---|---|
| Input Recognition Adjustment | Universal | The Input Recognition Frame, which is the number of frames within which you must press the attack button after a special move command is inputted in order for the game to recognize you are performing a special move, has been adjusted per command. |
| 1. For ↓↘→ or ↓↙← commands while standing on the ground, the Input Recognition Frame has been changed from 11 to 9 frames. This means the attack button must be pressed within 9 frames of the final → or ← command being input for it to be recognized and have the special move be performed. | ||
| For ↓↘→ or ↓↙← commands while in the air, the Input Recognition Frame remains at 11 frames. | ||
| 2. For ←↙↓↘→ or →↘↓↙← commands, the Input Recognition Frame has been changed from 12 frames to 9 frames. | ||
| Mid-air ↓↘→ and ↓↙← Command Moves | Universal | Considering the fastest possible input necessary for instant aerial commands, the input difficulty has been eased slightly, and ↓↙← + K commands can now be performed using any downward direction (↙ or ↓ or ↘) followed by ↙← + K. |
| ↓↓+ Button Commands | Universal | If Medium Punch+Medium Kick are input between a double Down tap, no command will be performed. This adjustment was made so that if you immediately double tap Down after a Cancel Drive Rush from a crouching attack, a double Down command move will not be performed by accident. |
| Jump Landing Hurtboxes | Universal | The following characters have had their hurtbox while landing from a jump moved upwards to match other characters, as it was previously lower and caused unanticipated attacks to hit them: Chun-Li, Dhalsim, Lily, A.K.I. |
| Stun Timing Adjustments | Universal | Fixed an issue where if an opponent in Burnout blocks a Drive Impact a certain distance away from the corner of the screen, and the player performs a technique just before stun occurs, no combo scaling would be applied on the combo after the stun. |
| Drive Parry | Universal | 1. Throw hurtbox has been expanded while the technique is being performed. |
| 2. Hurtbox from the 3rd frame and later has been expanded. | ||
| 3. The shortest possible active parry hitbox time has changed from 8 frames to 12 frames. | ||
| 4. Recovery after the active frames has changed from 29 frames to 33 frames. | ||
| 5. After absorbing an attack, the time until the Drive Gauge starts to auto regenerate has changed from 60 frames to 20 frames. | ||
| Perfect Parry | Universal | The overall gauge fluctuation from a counter attack after a Perfect Parry has been reduced. This adjustment is not just for the first attack, but affects all attacks until the combo ends. |
| 1. Super Art gauge increase has changed from 100% to 80% for both the attacker and damage-taker. | ||
| 2. Drive gauge increase for the attacker has changed from 100% to 50%. | ||
| 3. Drive gauge decrease for the damage-taker has changed from 100% to 50%. | ||
| Drive Rush | Universal | Expanded the attack and throw hurtboxes of the Parry Drive Rush so that they’re no longer smaller than the ones for a Drive Parry. |
| Drive Impact | Universal | Buffer input window has changed from 5 frames to 10 frames to ensure easier movement immediately after the recovery ends for cases where the Punish Counter cutscene is not triggered. |
| Drive Reversal | Universal | 1. Recovery on block has changed from -8 to -6 frames. |
| 2. Attack hitbox has expanded downward so techniques with a low profile can no longer avoid this attack. | ||
| 3. Pushback distance on close-range block is now almost equal for all characters. Note: Certain character updates to pushback on block, collision pushboxes, hurtboxes and distance traveled are being made. | ||
| Drive Reversal (Bug Fix) | Universal | Damage no longer increases on counter hit. |
| Recovery Drive Reversal | Universal | Drive Reversal can now be performed during the recovery from a knockdown. While the command is still the same (→+HP+HK), you can simply perform it early and hold down the input to perform the technique on recovery. Note: This version of the Drive Reversal will not darken the screen or stop time, and the attack start-up is 18 frames, which is 2 frames faster than the normal Drive Reversal. |
| Light Attack (Standing/Crouching) | Universal | Initial scaling has changed from 10% to 20%. |
| Cross-Up Capable Jumping Light Attacks | Universal | Because every character has a different hit and block recovery against their opponent, we’ve matched the longest advantage time, so some character’s jumping weak attack on block or guard will have an additional 1 frame of recovery. This change applies to Luke, Jamie, Marisa, Lily, Juri, Ryu, E. Honda, Guile, Ken, and A.K.I. |
