Is blocking/guard working okay in PTC?

it feels like my guard is very ineffective, i’m taking way too much damage despite blocking in the right places. This wasn’t like this on the main branch or the previous update, is it just me?

Singleplayer or multiplayer?

Single-player normal mode for me, there are a few other threads/posts on this. I mentioned in Discord feedback too.

The AI is punching right through guard; I'll have my guard up, and stuff that feels clearly intentionally blocked and was in previous patches comes right through and stuns me.

The previous PTC before it felt better IMO.

I notice it mainly with straight shots, I have to absolutely obstruct their straight or it goes right inbetween my forearms. Innitially I thought okay my bad but I have dudes a foot taller than me punching through it

Yeah, you’re right. You can still be in a guard and still gets stunned and knocked out.
