I have noticed the AMS on my Misery acting strange. The first problem is that it sometimes engages any enemy LRMs at up to 300 meters even if I am not the target, wasting under 10-15 rounds, but doing it on a fairly common basis. The second problem is that it will fail to engage some of the enemy missiles when I am targeted, most notably on the Canyon Network map. It tends to run in stretches, sometimes one volley from a foe, other times up to 10-15 seconds. I tend to notice it less frequently on other maps, but perhaps I am just too busy at the time.

That's working as intended. AMS tries to shoot down any and all enemy missiles coming in range, prioritizing those aimed at you.


Apart from that I noticed some "weirdness" in the AMS too. It sometimes does not shoot down any missles, even those aimed at me directly. Didn't pay attention on wich map it might be most noticable, though.

...but, I thought that AMS states it engages at 90 meters or less, prioritizing missiles aimed at you?

the loading-screen tip says 90m, smurfy says maxrange is 200m, I've never been quite sure wich one applies...
