Lastnight a friend and i played about 30 matches with the new mech (Cataphract) friggin love this mech, anyways we both experienced our armor plate was non exsistant for a few matches, after the first inital damage it would flicker back on but by then we where already critical then death after the next few hits, anyone else notice this bug? it happened about 3 times in a total of 30 matches, to both of us.

yes yes and yes. The whole night I was getting blown apart after very few hits, AND in one case i got a leg blown off and died. All 3 of my mechs were affected by this, I literaly could not last 30 seconds in a fight without getting cored.

this might have to do with the cataphract being kinda squishy, and so very many gauss rifles around. it being the by far and away best weapon, this is something to get used to. i was sorta noticing this also, so i started fraps'ing it. on review, i was just hit by 4+ gauss rounds inside of 3-5 seconds, then died. gauss is going to be everywhere for a while, the 2.0 Double heat sinks in the engine are now 1.4, so high heat builds got less desirable, and gauss, as always is still the best choice.

Yea the GAUSS rifle is a problem from across the map, this armor bug was not related to that, the bug was present at the very start, then after entering battle and taking a few hits the armor would pop back on, but by then it was too late, it's a rare bug, happened only 3 times out of about 30 matches, but it did happen

oh, ok. i didnt get that. i did die from 6 gauss-a-phracts from across the map in seconds, then assumed it was a bug, then checked fraps, then decided gauss is to powerful, its just the obvious choice given what we are dealing with now.

seeing how many matches were only cataphracts its odd no one on my team mentioned it either, likely a very rare bug then.
