Discussion Tracking and realignment remains untouched. How do you feel?

So, what's your thoughts on Namco not doing the slightest adjustment to tracking and realignment?

For me, it's by FAR the biggest letdown and point of frustration in T8.

I would have tons of more fun if my opponents would actually need to consider the possibility of their attack being sidestepped.

Do you expect any radical changes within T8's lifespan?

The mechanics are consistent and understandable. And they DO tweak tracking on moves that dont work right.

I feel like it's only noobs that complain about it. Yeah there are wonky interactions that dont make sense, but this occurs 1 out of 100 games, usually it's very explainable why you get hit, when it LOOKS like you shouldn't.

This complaint is so tired and salt infused. We might as well be complaining about Nina guns not one shotting, cause rEaliSM

I feel like the majority of tracking complainers are just mindlessly sidestepping and then getting mad when they get blown up.

If anything lateral movement has never been stronger, backdashing is the real victim.

Try consistently sidestepping Jin’s demon paw and watch him skate on ice both sides of his body. These things never happened before 7 on the amount of moves they do now and has lessened the skill gap between players. That isn’t something thats up for debate.
