There are so many situations where I’m standing right behind the ennemy (see picture), moving left and right and I just can’t make the little backstab icon pop. And that’s until, of course, the ennemy turns around and start the fight.
I believe the backstab system is pretty hard to trigger at the moment and could use a little improvement.
I can confirm that backstabbing has been a little buggy after the patch. Almost as if it regressed back to Breach initial release.

Many people have noted that the actual mob hitboxes are not working properly and what you think the mob is facing one way is actually not because the hitbox does not properly reflect where their face is pointed.
My greater success with backstabs work when the mob is staggered or when I sprint to their back without even bothering to sneak and gamble an attack press.

Thank you for your feedback guys. During an old presentation they introduced the crouching system as a way to be “stealthy” but in reality I don’t even know if there is an actual “sound detection” system in the game. So yeah, hope they can address this topic.
