At least with my BRL 1S TAG does not turn the crosshair red for the sign of hitting the target. It does not help with getting locks any faster and only like 70% times turns enemy ECM off.

No red crosshair for team mates:



No red crosshair for enemies:

Tag will only cut though ECM if you your self are not under enemy ECM.

*sighs* they patched out the red crosshair since it's not actually doing damage, and the little tag symbol should be enough

Where was this announced? I completely missed it.

In your image, you're actually hitting an invisible wall.


Here it is in another case.


It's a common occurrence, and EVERY wall extends further out with an invisible barrier that blocks shots (this is why poptarting is so effective; ever notice they're not hiding blind, they're hiding in such a way that they can see you but can't be hurt, then poptart up and shoot).

Yeah after almost 10 000 games I know about invisible walls but this TAG change was added under my radar. Serves me right for taking my dirty no-skill LRM-boat out from its tomb where it belongs.

Nothing wrong with a missile boat. This was taken during this patch. Group queue. Enemy had lots of Clan mechs. Our single heatsink Awesome outperformed almost every single one of their team in damage output.

Except when ECM comes into play as it did there. So many ECM.
