A few folks have been seeing a problem mostly with ECM mechs (for me commandos and cikada mostly) micro warping almost like a hickup, and when (according to your screen) you hit them square in the chest no damage is reportedvisually (sensor disply) and definatly not for real wither as there is no way a commando can take multiple sqaure hits with 5 med pulse lasers. im guessing this is a lag issue and the mech in question is not actually where you are seeing him, or the ecm is creating a minor glitch of somesort. either way if talked to lots of folks with the same issue. For the record im actually 100% hitting and not missing .

How many others are having this...and not actually missing shots.

how are u hitting 100% of the time? ive tried to lead shots with lasers against lights and it doesnt do much damage (damage gets spread out even tho i lead the shot in nearly a straight line) the only way i can hit lights is with missiles, ballistics and ppcs.

mech pilots that love to stand still in front of you giving you a direct rather elementary shot. and at a 5.12 KD with scores over 800 dam with a jenner i feel somewhat justified in this post.

Its probably not ECM, I've heard of this before, just lag.

[Arcturious]

Yup happens with all mechs over around 80kph and gets worse faster they go. It's just more obvious now as so many are running lights in games. On their list to be fixed, but requires a complete overhaul of the code.

thanks for the feedback folks. It does sound lag related..darn those xmas lights
