Glitchy Melee Fighting

Has anyone else noticed this? Both weapon melee deathmatches and regular fist fighting is really glitchy. Shooting guns works all day long but not so much with the Melee. Really puts a damper on crews like mine who do fight clubs. We have been going with
the everyone is handicapped theory but it isnt a very clean fight when 1 person throws a punch and you get hit super fast like 3 to 4 times in a row like bam, bam, bam off that one punch. Even the weapon fighting is glitchy although not in every location of
a created map. Some maps run smooth others you get hit multiple times off one hit just like in hand to hand fights. My crew has quite a few of these created maps and I for one love these matches but maybe they could fix this sometime soon.

Your opinions on Campaign

Just finished the Campaign....I would give it a C-. Its not broken, just unexciting, unfun and glitchy. Melee combat is reduced to idiocy and is actually a chore to deal with. There is never any sense of actual fighting, more like watching a train wreck
on TV.

I have not gotten into the MP yet, the game is all about MP anyway.

 

Lords Of The Fallen

I've been trying that too - but I don't have enough magic for the four blasts required to kill both, so I still end up mixing it with them in melee.

It's no surprise that I tended to avoid pure melee builds in Souls and go for more magic, with a sideline in melee.... I think I'm finding out now just how heavily I leaned on summons for the boss fights!

 

Probably down to the nature of a melee attack; with shooting the game is going to take the data of the shot fired and the hit position, then it will be sent to you, or the other player, depending on who has fired. Unless you can see someone in front of you,
you don't really notice whether the "shot" animation is seen before you die.

With the melee, there is the "swing" and the "fall down" animation as well, but the servers are going to try and relay the hit as a priority, if you have sixteen players all hitting each other and that data being sent to each one, animations may suffer over
hit registration. I may be wrong, but most fighting games there is lag due to the transfer of data/animations.
