well i dont know if it is just me but lately when i have been using my missiles and recently torpedoes even though they hit nothing actually happens to the victim
just a few minutes ago i attempted to stop a trader who fired back and so i started firing my paralizer missiles and sunslayer torpedoes and i know that atleast 3 torpedoes and 4 missiles hit but nothing happened to his shielding
after starting to think that something was odd i actually used my guns and actually got his shields down by 5-8% and the guns were 3 Gaia's Angels (level 9) now surly my missiles (which should do about 7k shield damage) and my torpedoes should of done far more than that??
is anyone else having these troubles or is it only me? :(
I thought it was just me...
Earlier today took on a Bounty Hunter GB had his shields down, nailed him with a Snova followed a second or 2 later by a Mini Razor, hull bar didnt budge. I know both hit. My wingman had same issue, nailed him with Snova & nadda, zilche, no damage.
maybe just some glitch in server today?
Ah it was you who tried to hold me up was it Ian? Yes, he did try to hold me up, little to lose I opened up on him. Only had 5 level 4 Transport Guns and a Civilian Grav Transport Shield, he had a lot of firepower equipped, paralyzers and Sunslayers, I thought, if he rips through my shield I'm done for.
Oddly enough my shields didn't budge once at all. I was also confused, I did take a couple of paralyzers and a torpedo. I shot down some of them. He bugged out then we talked about how weird this whole thing was.
Could the ini files be corrupt or is this server lag in all its glory, we both have around 30-50 ping range and it was only us two in the system.
EDIT: I've seen missiles not track many a time, but no damage? That is very concerning.
I've had this trouble with missiles for a very long time-since I started playing. About a third of the time, they do no damage when they hit, or to little damage. I always chalked it up to latency. But if you're getting 30-50, and it's happening...
