I lost a tank because the gun would not fire. I changed tanks, that gun worked for a few minutes then when I was in a tank battle it froze again. My tank was destroyed.
In the deployment screen no buttons worked except the PS Home button. I stayed in squad as my squad mate was still deployed although he was suffering major lag as well.
The important to note is that there was NOT a large amount of deployed equipment. Which seems to be your major boogey man of late.
The map was Ashland on the American servers.
Tank fitting:
Madruger
Militia Rail Gun
Basic Armor Hardener
Basic Scanner
Basic Fuel Injection
2 Militia Heavy Armor Repair BPO
I have no idea if the fittings make a difference.
This bug report was delayed because I reported this to support but to my surprise they claim that bug reports are still being filed here. That is odd as there is rarely any response to a bug report, except the occasional reason to Nerf something CCP/Shanghai doesn't like or to ignore draw distance cut off bugs for six months (or more) before finally fixing them while never commenting anywhere that it was a bug and had been finally addressed. The only way we Mercs found out was a one line comment in the 1.7 patch release notes.
Way to go CCP/Shanghai! Ever lowering the bar for customer support. Other game companies will try but never best you! A bug report system that has no recognition, acknowledgement of actual bugs is definitely an optimization. And to put them on a forum that your players can get banned from is twice as twisted as any other I have ever seen. |

A very irritating situation: gun doesn't fire, doesn't use rounds, does use rounds, doesn't generate heat then suddenly overheats and might even cause damage. Very logical solution - if you were wanting to drive tanker Mercs crazy anyway. |

I ran into this with my alt the last few days. The heat builds but no damage is dispensed and all it does it irritate your opponent. It is slightly different than no rounds at all but it is very confusing. Fire, heat builds, no damage, stop firing and then one or more rounds will hit the target. Sometimes the heat nearly doubles once the damage has occurred.
The other condition of not firing can be fixed occasionally if I get to a supply depot. Unfortunately many are not accessible to tanks and a new tank must be called in regardless of the amount of ammunition.
At some point it would be appreciated if the Devs would acknowledge the problem. Until then I appreciate others sharing their information. Maybe we can gather enough data that the Devs will be able to address it. Eventually.
And so it goes.
