It's god damn awful, and you're bad for doing such an awful thing.
Sit in a tank, can't see forge gunners or Swarm Launchers because they're outside my render distance, yet vehicles render perfectly fine at double the distance. Same with Installations, they can see me, I can't see them.
It's bad enough being told to "Adapt or Die" by **** players, and then when actually playing smart, I physically can't see people attacking me because of horrible mechanics. I'm tired of losing 6-7 games worth of ISK because of it, get ****** CCP. |

I do agree though that invisible swarms need to be fixed
I pay attention, I don't care if I die legitimately, but this rendering **** is ridiculous. If someone puts the effort in, wonderful, it someone just sits on a mountain and I can't see them even though they can see me? ******* awful. |

Oi Frame, let me vent, it's not my fault you have an awful mechanic here that obviously needs to be changed, it can't go on. We need to be able to see, at minimum, the maximum range of the games furthest available weapon, so for example, a sniper rifle or Railgun. The Vehicles need to be within the same draw distance, you should not see vehicles further away than Infantry as we can be easily two shotted by AV like Infantry can be two shotted by Snipers. |

the posts are somewhere in the bug reports section, search for posts about invisable crap and rendering and go through everything with a blue tag to find it.
"Don't need to see it", seems CCP are quite wrong with that idea, seems to me their "internal testing" is bad.

Out of curiosity, why would a tank need to see the maximum range a snipe does? It doesn't zoom in. I'll drive one, and yeah, that rendering problem sucks, but if you snipe from 200+ meters in game with the rifle, half of y'all are land sharks and nothing lands a hit. (explains why I switched to close quarters sniping if needed)
And god help you if you do it from a tower.
Ah..but then I think redline tank sniping is taking half the challenge out of running a short sighted bit of machinery. But I do applaud those guys who do manage to hit me with their cannons at over 150 meters, that's a b**** and a half.
Everytime I get into the crap tank I use when I get the urge (Very rarely) the shooting controls are a bit of a pain to get right.
So hey, take the kills you get.
Why? Because Swarms and Forge Guns can see me around a snipers distance and yet I can't see them, this makes it incredibly frustrating and difficult to fight against them when I'm just sitting there unable to see them, it also means I cannot coordinate well with my Infantry because when they ask "Where did the swarms come from" I just say, well my hit marker says somewhere east, that isn't helpful whatsoever.
If I'm red line sniping, again, I can't see much further than my blaster tank, which is a massive pain as It's very difficult to combat other tanks and hell, I even had an invisible missile Installation hitting me. I couldn't see it yet it had enough range to hit me with missiles. |

Glad everyone else agrees this is ****. This needs to be addressed CCP :/ |

IF enemies actually rendered at the maximum distance of my railgun, I wouldn't mind it so much, but I can fire like 200m further than the distance, it's stupid and makes me just want to not bother with the game.
