Assault Mode - Turrets disregard ECM

600m from Turret in an ECM equipped mech (spider-d / cicada-m) and the LRM turrets including the laser turrets lock on and fire on the ECM equipped mech. There were no enemy mechs within 2000m

This also occurs with an ECM mech providing coverage to other non-ECM equipped mechs. The turrets are targeting the mechs.

I decided to make believe that the turrets have seismic tracking. This would allows LRMs and lasers to track you easily and negate ECM. I chose to believe this after I died like chump in my 3M attempting to be sneaky.

I just quit playing assault, tbh. Unless I'm running in somebody else's group, I just won't play that mode now.

I just don't play assault unless I'm grouped up with people.

So turrets get LRM's that work the right way and players don't? lol

I'm thinking they have TAG equipped; they certainly have the room and explains some of the lrm effectiveness(but not all) Lasers, of course, don't care about ECM.
