Stuck in tutorial because the game wont let me throw rocks.

[Eirik]

The part of the tutorial where we are sneaking in the dark is supposed to teach me how to throw rocks. I crouch down and press and hold RB and nothing happens.

How is the game bugged so badly at the start? Like how is this not a bug that has been fixed?

Or am I doing it wrong?`Crouch down, hold RB (on xbox controller) right?

Edit: Thanks to all that took the time to answer. Turns out I did something earlier that bugged the rock throwing mechanic. Back in the water when we were sneaking up on the women, I was supposed to have used the rock throwing there, but I didn't do it. I felt like too much of a creep so I decided to just walk past the woman washing her clothes.

So after restarting and playing the game exactly how it wanted me to, I learned the rock throwing mechanic in the water there and then later in the canyon it worked just fine.

Its a little silly to keep mechanics like that from being active until the tutorial unlocks them. Or at least, its silly that the two different times the tutorial requires it, that it doesn't get unlocked on each of them. There should be a trigger that says something like "you can now throw rocks" at both those parts of the tutorial, imo.

BUT that said, I do realize that I ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up by not doing what the game wanted.

You have to let go of the button... it took me 10 seconds to do it

Hold to aim, release to throw.

I don't remember there being a part in the dark you had to throw rocks... I know during the river scene you were told to throw a rock to distact the maid washing laundry but outside that you weren't told to do it again. The dark portion was after you went across the river and all you have to do is follow hans till you split for a small section.

You leave him to check out a canyon (which turns out to be a dead end) and when you come back, Hans is gone and there are two guards talking. After a few moments, one leaves. The other can be distracted by throwing a rock so you can sneak off. There are ofcourse other ways to approach this situation, but throwing a rock is by far the easiest solution.

AHHHH yes this! Turn around and run through the canyon following the left Henry should be yelling for Hans don't worry youll find him in like 6 sec if your sprinting. This one got a bit confusing at first too but you aren't actually supposed to get PAST them rather turn around and look for hans at the exit of the canyon.
