Missiles not working as intended - Walker - 10-22-2011

So I went out of the Isis and into a fray, it was one of the bloodiest battles that I had ever seen this day. I strafed and I slid and I punched the tab key, all the while screaming like a wailing Banshee. But then up popped a Hammerhead so nimble and fierce, but it wasn't long until its shield was pierced. I followed up fast with dual Sidewinders, his ship almost exploded with a blaze worthy of firefighters. But try as I would, I couldn't get a shot, because all his components were all but naught.

So basically, I blasted off this poor Hammerhead's components, guns, everything. I then tried to hit him with my Sidewinders again and it did no damage. What so ever. Direct hit. Head on. Nada. No recognizable effect.

I believe that Missiles are still seeking some form of component damage or something of the sort. As once you blow your enemies to tiny bits, you can't really divide them any smaller with your missiles.

They work for me, honestly. Sure, they're not as effective when the server is full, they just won't track, but with 120~ players, they work like a charm.

Don't doubt the insta-gib potential.
Two paralyzers+four cannonballs and a starkiller=splat in 0.67 seconds.
And remember, the best thing about a full missile loadout......

Known issue that lag can affect missile effectiveness. It's being worked on for 4.86, same with the missile-to-shield not doing damage. Known error.

[Edit] @Above: A TCD can really throw a wrench in that plan...
