First standoff is bugged

[Ziza]

Title.

Cant progress, any workarounds?

*Edit, just reset til it works. Took 4 times for me to get it to respond.

*Edit2: Email from Nixxes:

''Right now, we suspect this might be a bug caused by high frame rates.

Can you try setting your game to run in exclusive fullscreen and your refresh rate to 60hz? Both of these settings are in the Display Options section.

Please let us know if that serves as a viable workaround as we continue to investigate the issue on our end.''

Not a ''viable'' workaround imo, but might be worth a try if you really want.

Edit 3*
Wow now even Nixxes themselfs give the same braindead responses as some in this thread have.

''Thanks for following up.

This could also be related to pressing the standoff button too early. Make sure you wait for the button prompt and start the standoff when the prompt appears on the screen.

Let us know if this helps.''

so restart the game?

Not only first standoff, all standoffs seem bugged. Most times it ignores my heavy attack input.

Which controller you guys having problems are using?
Works fine for me with an Xbox One pad.

I restarted and it's still bugged for me

Not recognising the Y button in stand off for me. Mouse works fine though so will use that in stand off's for time being.

It seems you need to jump soon after standoff cut scene to fix this issue... Weird bug nonetheless

Xbox Elite 2, and it is not the key, the key works fine. It isn't always the case it doesn't register the input tho. Just sometimes. Character is stiff as a stature, even trying to missinput like hammering Y button.

No matter how many times i smash the button I cannot get past the first standoff

[Ziza]

It bug's in a certain animation for me sometimes. It's a 50/50 for now that standoffs work.

[Cinder]

you dont mash the button you hold it down until they move then release the button, hope this helped.

Tutorial worked for me but all the other standoffs don't. Jin just stands there and bravely takes a blade to the face. Had to do the tutorial twice though.
Using M/KB.

Same thing here, game asks to hold Y (strong attack), I hold Y and the game doesn't recognize it.
It happens often.

Hopefully they the put out a hotfix fast, this is kinda annoying since you usually start fights with standoffs.

Insane that they didnt catch this before release in QA...
