stlcarlos989 SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 807	Posted - 2014.01.02 15:38:00 - [1] - Quote I just hacked a letter and placed an RE 1/3 of the way up on the wall that is directly behind the hacking console. I saw a red dot go to the letter start hacking it, I triggered the RE which is literally a foot behind him directly facing his back and it did no damage to him. The only thing I can think is the friendly shields absorbed it and protected him, which I ask why does it even need shields? This isn't skirmish 1.0 were we could destroy them so why do they still have shields? STB Director, #1 in Warpoints E3 Closed Beta Build, Water Pipe Aficionado

Usually I get that right before I disconnect, that and me constantly reloading and people walking though walls. 'Don't talk to stranger, shoot them.' Snow LOCKOUT I will never stop killing you.

Yeah its point less for them to have shields since it can't be destroyed, all the shields do now is just get in the way. STB Director, #1 in Warpoints E3 Closed Beta Build, Water Pipe Aficionado
Arkena Wyrnspire Fatal Absolution 7335	Posted - 2014.01.02 16:36:00 - [5] - Quote Null cannons get in the way of combat so much. I've started defending from inside null cannons because it's so hard to hit through them sometimes. Level 7 Forum Warrior Lenin of the glorious armoured revolution Gallente FW - 'Turalyon'
Himiko Kuronaga Fatal Absolution 2657	Posted - 2014.01.02 17:03:00 - [6] - Quote Null cannons (which are not actually cannons, nor do they fire the hybrid ammunition known as null, but are missile launchers) currently have a glitchy hitbox that interferes with aim assist because reasons.

I have witnessed it too.

I submitted a bug about this with video. We haven't had a feedback update from the devs since 12/05/2013. I hope they have this one.

Which wouldn't be an issue if they didn't have shields It would actually - unless you want people to be able to just shoot straight through, they need hitboxes. The name has bugged me for a as long as I've played - IIRC someone once said that way back at the very start of the beta the used to be turrets instead of launchers. (but that was before my time - and I suspect I may have imagined reading about it )
