Hi,

I have no idea what could cause this, but please take a look at the Spider-5K.
Last night I played this (bad) mech and I was wondering what I can survive.
I'm not kidding when saying an Atlas would have been killed!
About 3 minutes I ran around having only my internal structure, it flashed over and over again, so i WAS hit, but I survived.
Shure, some hits might be without power because of the maximal range of the weapons, but other mechs were inside about 150 meters.
Once I got legged, I died in less than a second.

Don't get me wrong, I love surviving but this isn't fair for other users.

During this fight I also noticed strange flying missiles, they circled around me like some kind of moon, like my speed was too high for their turning-angle.

>.> I've survived whole matches with the spider 5k getting around 200dmg with only MGs and a flamer. Only reason I stopped doing dmg was because I ran out of ammo!

You are just underestimating our little spider friends.

Oh no, I don't underestimate them, I love my 5D and I'm doing about 200-300 damage in a fight.
But beeing hit without any armor (already destroid) and surviving hit after hit... that's wrong.

It's not a spider issue, but rather a problem with the state rewind. Example post: http://mwomercs.com/...ost__p__2256621

They aren't hitbox bugged. The Spider IS smaller than the Raven. Guess you have to improve your aim.

The Spider has a the smallest profile of any mech, even smaller then the Commando. While it is taller then the Commando it is anorexically thin compared to the chubby limbed Commando. Keeping a laser trained on any one component of the Spider's body is almost impossible because of how thin they are, and with the big gap between the arms and torso and between the legs you'll be hitting air more then you hit mech.
