Is it a perk that only works once or twice per mission?

I also have this New Feature Checkboxed and have yet to see it DO ANYTHING or
give me any kind of Prompt if there is a Button/Key I am supposed to be Pressing instead
of A+D -As it is, I just keep using the Ol' A+D, that still works and I'm quite Fast when
Pressing them

The only Logic I can think of is that in the Update Notes it was Stated that Break Immobilization was for the Rockpox A+D Situations- I assumed, as Maven also did, that the New Break Immobilization would be available for ALL A+D Scenarios, Ice/Frozen, whatever- But I still had to use A+D in Glacial Strata Situations, and even Testing with the Arkenstone Beer at the Abyss Bar

But maybe Break Immobilization Is Indeed JUST for the A+D Situations for the Rockpox Spike Areas, the Corruptor's Trail it makes, and anytime Rockpox Infected Enemies Inflict you with it- I wouldn't know as I've been Sick of Rockpox since Jan at the start of Last Year, and STILL avoid any and all Situations if Rockpox is Unwantedly Sprung upon me Randomly Like the Corruptor showing up- I usually just Abort the Mission and start another one- The occasional announced Rockpox Swarm Attacks with just a small amount of Infected Enemies are the only time I deal with It, and it's been since before the Update since I've fought those, so I haven't had the Chance (thankfully) to see if the Break does Indeed JUST WORK with Rockpox

But The New Break Feature has definitely not been Working with Ice/Freezing-
Still doing the Ol' Reliable A+D

I have seen it work with Rockpox (haven't tried it with being frozen yet), but there isn't any change in the UI. The UI will still say "mash A + D", but the bar will fill up if you hold A or D as well.

The UI probably could use an update to properly indicate that users can indeed hold A or D to break free when they're immobilized.

It works perfectly for me, with rockpox or frozen effect. I just hold A or D down. It seems to be a bit slower than spamming manually, but if so it's not by much.

Ah, OK, HOLD A OR D down either Key, Thanks:steamthumbsup:

it's still strange that the Game still Prompts you with the "Hold A+D to Break' Message even if you have the Break Immobilization Checked On- Been Playing for 5 Years so my Instinct has been to just keep Pressing A+D Regardless Like I always do- I'll try to remember to just Press and Hold a Single Key next time, that is if I remember before my Instinct Kicks In- I'm too fast at Escaping with A+D anyway
