Not a QQ or rage forum just a few questions to see if the community is seeing what I am seeing.

1. Swarm Launcher's. I have proto SL and should have no problem with this weapon, but I do. It seems after 1.4 it takes forever to lock on and by the time it does the vehicle is now out of range or it glitches and failed to register the vehicle. Two the rockets are a lot slower now. Fire multiple volleys at one DS and it evaded everyone and buzzed me as it flew by Shocked

.

2. Has CCP put in a hot fix into the game, for it seems the weapons ranges have been shorter lately.

3. Have you found the runways? I found some runways near the red line on one of the new boards toward the jump gates. They are far in the red zone but if you look at them they almost look like a heart with a emergency runway made into it. Have to see it to understand. Possible use for later builds, I hope Big smile

If you have any question for the community please add it. I will try and answer if I can. Please keep it civil.

Might be a connection issue, because if the target is lagging, or you are, you might be unable to properly sync the track box to the hit box.

I bet that was me. I fly almost every match. I am the sort of player that you shot at and from my view of the process I have not noticed any changes in the speed of missiles or on the rate of shots that are fired at me that actually hit me.

Who knows. It could have very well been me. Calvin has put away his thales in favor of a swarm launcher to take me down, only to pull the Thales out again 12 or so minutes later after I shot myself down (as usual). Afterburners are amazing things.
calvin b Molon Labe. RISE of LEGION 627	Posted - 2013.09.26 13:33:00 - [5] - Quote I love my Thale. It maybe a lag issue when the missiles fail to hit, the question still is why does the SL fail to lock on. I am going to try my starter fit and see if this just maybe a glitch for one weapon and not the system. Also I am aware you have to be within 300M for it to hit, which in my opinion is stupid. Its a freakin rocket!!!!!
trraacx Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 1	Posted - 2013.09.26 13:36:00 - [6] - Quote When there are a lot of vehicles out I'll switch over to the Dren swarm launcher. What I have noticed is that some LAVs are now moving quickly enough that they evade lock for the most part. I assume that is due to their having been upgraded to allow that. They lock as they used to once they come to a stop. I've seen one stationary drop ship that I couldn't get a lock on. I don't think the range decreased though. I think it is just that the maps are so much larger that it is no longer possible to lock from one end of the map to the other.

Its a freakin rocket!!!!! You are invisible beyond 120m, and can mag dump out enough damage to drop anything but a well fit tank. Stop complaining that your fire and forget scrub AV weapon isn't strong enough.
pegasis prime BIG BAD W0LVES 1051	Posted - 2013.09.26 13:53:00 - [8] - Quote The trick to using swarms as the atorny pointed out is to get out side of the vehicles rendering distance say 250m away and let off 3 vollys before tge first hits and if your using a dual swarm commando suit you can get another 3 more off before the tanker has any chance.
Gorra Snell The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 134	Posted - 2013.09.26 14:02:00 - [9] - Quote I've noticed lock-on glitchiness lately, but not consistently. It seems like the game just doesn't pick up on my downpress, and then I have to release and click again a few times before it starts locking on.

I play logi, assault, sniper, AV and whatever the hell else gets my team a W. I cant help it I have enough SP to be able to do multi roles. It has nothing about being bad at a game it has to do with adapting and helping out my team any way I can. From droplinks and nanohives to AV and using a sniper fit to prevent you from taking a position. I will do whatever it takes it make the other teams job even harder to win.

Find the map that has the jump portals and go all the way to the red line, to the very back. Its down in a valley.
Cody Sietz Bullet Cluster 1035	Posted - 2013.09.26 15:03:00 - [19] - Quote I seen to be having the same problem with swarms. I don't even bother with proto anymore, just advanced and packed AV.

Oh no, but eventually the whole 5x5 map will be 1 board!, that 1 where you are on the side of the mountain, fractured road I think, the one where you can see the craters board? Youll be able to fight across both simultaneously! In the future!

Basically he saw me coming for his thales in my Python and he swapped to Swarms to take me down. I shot myself down by hitting something while orbiting a target.. Still don't know what I hit since AFAIK I had a clear sky. Or so I think. Maybe I was a tad bit too low and clipped something. Meh

As an HAV operator, swarms are noticeably more deadly. Maybe the derpships have an easier time (More power to them since in PC they are near useless and in pubs they are still glass). 2.) My SMG can still technically tap people 120 meters away (Barely... I get a red dot and a wee hit marker for almost no damage), but I do notice my Proto C-Rail is not shooting as far as it used to... At least, my corp seems to think that when shooting derpships... I'm not solid on this though. 3.) I'm really hoping those runways are for things to come and not just fluff!
