It used to be that a LRGT Installation would occasionally pretend it was a pointer and not shoot. Making damage not significant any longer even though Zero can be significant, it is not in this particular case.
That used to be cleared by shooting at something else. Failing that might require exiting and re-entering the turret.
Well, its back. And it effects Installations and has decided to include HAVs (Madruger tested, I don't have enough SP to run shield tanks as well).
Now it does a variety of problems. In the middle of shooting (3 rounds in for example) shots leave and fart butterfly wings* causing no damage. Regardless of the range or whether the other HAV is trying to kill you and your HAV the gun will stop working. Bubba, A.I. Scotties dumber brother was out having a cuppa, obviously.
However, I don't like losing tanks this way. It seems incorrect to me.
Additionally the reset mechanism is unclear. Sometimes the gun has to aimed elsewhere and then returned to the original target, which might work if the original target has yet to kill you. Or cannot shoot at you, that would work as well. Other times it is unclear and I have actually given up trying to shoot because it just didn't work. Think of how much fun this will be when we have Ammo! If you could start recording the faces of HAV drivers you could enter 'Pissed off customer expressions' contest. Or start one.
Another tanker I squad with explains that sometimes the modules will cause the main gun to fail (he runs missile turrets often, BTW) and he clears it by switch seats. That can be difficult in battle, in the case when random Blue Belles of indifferent levels of intelligence and lacking mics it can cause the loss of the tank to hi-jacking or enemy fire.
Fun ... nope, not really CCP/Shanghai.
* or something else that cannot damage air. |

I can confirm the "misfire" also occurs on the gunlogi and Falchion
I used to pilot HAV's then I took a forge gun to the knee

I suspected it would but your input verifies my suspicion. |

the full list of railgun bugs (wich includes this one)
problems have exsisted since well before uprising, and CCP has yet to ven awknowledge their exsistance.
dont expect CCP to even admit the problem exsists as its been 6 months weve been causing a stink about it without so much as a reply, or even inclusion in any known issues thread/ bug list/ weekly report/ blue post asking for more info
so untill CCP speaks up and says otherwise, its been working as intended for 6 months. |
