I haven't played in a couple weeks, then started again for the Chassis Challenge this weekend...

And I'm noticing that sometimes (always?) if you fire LRMs immediately after the reticle locks and turns red, they are off target as if you didn't have lock yet...

Its driving me crazy... I wait for the lock, usually under fire, and once the reticle is clearly red, I pull the trigger, only to see the missiles fire off as if I didn't have lock...

This may or may not be tag related; i can't say if this happens only when i tag an enemy, but my lrm boat carries tag, so...

Is it just me?

It's not TAG related. Happens to everyone.

You have to wait for about 1 second after the circle turns red or until you hear the beep-sound.
It's a known issue and they are working on it.

Not new, has been happening since the clans were injected.

This.

It varies in severity; I'm not sure what exactly controls that. Today I was having a LOT of trouble, often taking 2-3 seconds after I have a red-circle lock to actually lock - go through a match where you do practically no damage because even though you're direct firing your LRM's they're plummeting uselessly into the dirt.
