CD failure?

[Dark_Predator]

Hello guys. Maybe I'm not first who can admit that when there are 2-3 hostiles on scanner (not only in close range) Train cruise Disruptor works like in 50% times. Even when the enemy almost infront (I mean I see him on my monitor) in 50% of shots it's moving forward and doesn't trying to reach the target. Tried to retarget, same problem.
How long ago I saw that thing? About a month ago, I thought that it's temporary problem but it's happening again and again.

EDIT: also sometimes (but much rare than CD failure) when CD blows up near ship and near Screamer Mine it doesn't hits Mine.

I've been noticing a massive loss in performance of cruise disruptors as of late; wherein I'll end up firing 30 or so CDs at a battleship only for none of them to hit, and after re-selecting targets 3 or 4 times. This has happened more than once and I'm certainly not the only one to notice it.

I've started recording all my combat encounters again so it shouldn't be long before I have video evidence of such a thing again-- there does certainly seem to be something different about CDs now.

I am used to CDs being a problem; not tracking(unselect, reselect) etc.

But recently I saw mine hitting the target multiple times without any effect. It is really confusing as this is new to me.

Scourgeclaw, can you post it here as evidence?

Indeed, saw sometimes screamer mine near the target and after my CD blowed near nothing happens.

CDs don't track since Freelancer launched. Get used to it, this is an old issue and it's easy to fix it by reselecting the said ship. Been through this problem all the time, even in original FL servers.

Yes, i was testing Reinforced Cruise Disruptors and sometimes it not track the target... several times. And also looks like the distances not matching.... after spamming around 30 CDs to a ship at 2k away... no one of them hit the ship ... i should reach 3.5k, right?

I made the exact same thread about this a short while ago and nothing has been said/done anything about it from the staff.

Stone21 - Actually I said hat I did retarget (reselect) and it doesn't help.

Snoopy - I hope developers will see this thread and chance CD bug.

Recently my CDs DO hit without actually disrupting the target.

Yep, they are problematic last days. During the last snub fight my CDs were useless for 50% time of the fight. Then decided to work properly again. Just flew in front withno taking care about the target I both choose and rechoose.
