I just got done playing a match in the coliseum. I was on one side of a rock formation and there was a red blip from seismic showing someone on the other side of it. There was NO OTHER CONTACT on the other side. I go around the pillar of rock and fire.... into my teammate that WASN'T on the radar! To top this all off, I had popped a UAV to see what was nearby before going around the corner. The UAV only showed a red blinking light, no solid contact.

What the hell happened? I unleashed a full SRM salvo into my teammate that wasn't shown on the radar! I really wish I had recorded the match, so I could watch it and see what happened and to show proof of my problem.

was your teammate using stealth armor next to an enemy mech?

I actually think it might be the other way around, a Red stealth was hiding behind or near his teammate.

Seismic also shows dots for impacts on the ground, so your buddy could have been shot at and the bullet hit the ground.

Don't suppose you had the low signal warning during that time? It sounds like your team mate was next to an enemy stealth 'Mech. UAV doesn't see stealthed 'Mechs.

Wait. Really?

Just from projectiles?

Um, originally. I don't recall if they cut that back. I think it was just missiles, not all projectiles. I don't use Seismic much.

Seismic doesn't trigger on anything except a moving mech.

No idea why OP didn't see their teammate. Best guess is they simply missed it on the minimap due to proximity.
