Morning all. Just played a Mining Collective, conquest mode. We had 6 mechs sitting on their base inside the capture boundary. Capture started fine, couple of lights came running through - iced them down pretty quick, they halted the capture for about 5 seconds. After the lights deaths the capture boundary locked white, flashed blue for a second about 20 secs later, but the capture never continued.
We all searched - no red mech under our noses.
Ultimately lost the match after having a %50 lead on the capture - anybody else having problems with the capture mechanic working correctly on conquest mode?

Was someone shooting you?
Now you can stop a cap by shooting any mech inside the cap-zone.

Ahhh ty TheCharlatan. I was not being shot at, but someone in the cap zone very well could have been taking fire. How does the delay mechanic work, ie 1 shot taken in the capture zone = x number of seconds of capture delay?
Seems kind of silly that a pop tart would be capable of delaying a capture being conducted by 6 mechs, regardless I will be a better player for the info.

• Shooting an enemy 'Mech while it is attempting to capture a Base or Capture Point in the Assault, Conquest, or Domination Game Modes will now suspend its capture attempt for 5 seconds, regardless of whether or not that 'Mech has any allies within the Base or Capture Point.

Thanks. Started reading those patch notes when they came out. However, my eyes glazed over with all the marketing stuff and I never got that far.

Just a reminder... this works in Assault mode as well... If someone is capping the base... shoot them and it stops the timer

I think it should only stop capping for the mech who got damaged, not everyone in the goddamned group. If you have 6 dudes and one of them gets scratched on the arm, why does that have to put a penalty on the other 5? If you want to stop 6 dudes from capping, damage them all.
