Are you kicking? There's two buttons you can press in choke holds. One kicks whoever's in front of you and the other escapes from the choke hold.

u need to move towards someone to kick him, not just randomly kick the air.

I think I've identified this issue for the same reason that the jump in the final level has an issue. For some reason, the game doesn't pick up nearly as many keypresses as it should, but it's fairly receptive with the mouse. With the original, one had to rebind the particular keyboard entry to a mousebutton instead, which enabled the game to recognise just how much we were spamming it.

The E key doesn't work for escaping chokeholds simply because it doesn't detect keypresses nearly as much as it should. Until this issue is fixed - and I really thought it would be with the Definitive Edition - you'll have to rebind it to a mouse button.

In my case I had to get delays between each E. It isn't that hard and it spices up the gameplay a bit.

Yup - When being grappled (or fighting with grapplers in general), it's pretty tedious to get out, when tapping "E"; (For Example) binding it to the MMB (Middle Mouse Button) instead, seems to solve the issue, and also seems to fix the few times that "E" doesn't seem to work when countering.

(Perhaps it's an issue that's more prevalent on less-powerful systems, as most users don't really seem to have an issue with the timing)

Ideally - a 4/5 button mouse (with the right bindings) would make the game even more enjoyable.

It seems that repeating the 'e' key it doesn't work for me, neither. But I find out that by alternating the 'e' key and the right mouse button works. I think that the game has difficulties to recognize when you are keep pressing a key and when is smashing.

Or most people play with a controller...possibly. Everyone I see saying it's a problem always says "the E key".

Depends on your interpretation of less powerful systems, although really, if a person with a 'less powerful' system is running this then they'd probably be quite lucky to get it to do so. I have had problems with this E button issue regardless of the system it's on - and that's quite a few!

It's not just the "E" key. When I played the standard version of the game, I could hack cameras fairly quickly with the arrow keys. With "definitive version" it doesn't register my key presses nearly as fast. I can escape a hold with the E key just by slowing down how fast I press it, but as others have said, it doesn't always register a counter attack. I've even had slow response with steering "A" and "D" keys. It just feels like the keyboard polling is slower than normal.

I think this guy lost all hope :/
M'lord how can we be of service?

You gotta spam super fast without kicking. Basically most of the time, if you kicked once you might as well keep doing it and stop bothering with trying to escape. Though lately I haven't had any problems with doing both - though requires super fast E spamming.

when i use mouse5 or other keys it works fine but ''e'' is easier to use. And i broke my laptop's screen, thanks square enix.
