Overload issues on Xbox

nazkec · December 2016

Does anybody else have issue with overload on Xbox. Sometimes my character switches to overload but the swords are still out. My hands are not glowing and the light attacks do not have any animation but I can see the target take damage.

Also the lb+rb button seems particularly laggy when I click on them. Seems to take a full second or so before the animation to activate occurs

Yep, I have this

Used to get it loads, went away for months, since OneT its back. Often then gets stuck in Overload heavy attack graphic

You're just bashing the buttons too quick. It's once per second is all you need. Smashing it like a mad man does do it any quicker and just locks it up. Still shouldn't happen but it's related to how quick you're pressing RT. Too quick and it thinks you're doing a heavy. The trigger is also pressure sensitive not just an off / on button so you have to completely release it.

I have definitely noticed that bashing the trigger caused issues when overload is already active. I have more issues with the lack of an animation and my weapon still being present after it is activated.

Had a couple of deaths just trying to get my bars back in track in vMA.

^ My mate said it all about the heavy attacks. Overload is clunky at times, and the reason you get the swords while in Overload, means that you've done your bar swaps too quickly for everything to register. To get into Overload, you have to to 2 bar swaps essentially. Except that the bar swap takes priority over an ultimate so you essentially just animation canceling the whole Overload animation. You're still in Overload and you can still exit it like normal, its just that you have swords and no one else knows that you're in Overload (in PvP it can be pretty deadly).
