ThePredicament Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 The fix for being able to continuously use RB while firing weapons has completely borked it's "one hand" ability, thus interrupting reloads and other actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xenonox Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Yeah this is a terrible bug for Excalibur users. I guess I am not alone on this sad bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePredicament Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Actually surprised how little exposure this has gotten, it's a pretty nagging bug with proper Excal players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Rebecca Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 A fix has been submitted for this internally, it will be deployed once it's verified and such. I wouldn't expect it today, but 'soon'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pridesfury Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Oh yay this mildly annoying bug bug gets fixed but zephyr turbulance doesnt block bombards ospray ramparts and several other projectiles since u17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am standing in the Simulacrum as we speak watching Turbulence work super effectively against Bombard Rockets (as well as Osprey Projectiles on the prior test). Please link me to a thread that has more details confirming the issue, I'm not seeing it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzi Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I could be wrong but I thought I heard people saying that power range had to do with catching the rockets or not.. This was a long time ago though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please link me to a thread that has more details confirming the issue, I'm not seeing it right now. In my experience it has to do with Jet Stream and having other team members nearby. Without Jet Stream/alone and no team member benefiting from it it works fine and bombards rockets are deflected. With Jet Stream and a nearby ally under its effect bombards rockets are at most only slightly deflected for a split second but then immediately resume homing in on you. It still works fine for other things tho like crewmen dera projectiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZizWing Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I am standing in the Simulacrum as we speak watching Turbulence work super effectively against Bombard Rockets (as well as Osprey Projectiles on the prior test). Please link me to a thread that has more details confirming the issue, I'm not seeing it right now. Try again with corrupted bombards and different range setups (I suggest max range and min range builds) The rocket deflects once it touches the shield ONCE. But immediatley does a 180-degree turn back through and will track you. The only time it does not home in again is when either it gets deflected at an extreme angle (almost straight away) or into the ground (killing you if you have low range). As for the ramparts... They just don't get blocked... at all, with any range and any build ever. In sorties this is almost certain death for Zephyr due to her low armor. Please for the love of all Zephyr players fix these 2 issues... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shut Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) A fix has been submitted for this internally, it will be deployed once it's verified and such. I wouldn't expect it today, but 'soon'! Oh my god thank you. RB interrupting reloads has been bugging the hell out of me since U18 hit. By the way, just pointing out, it seems to interrupt weapon reloads in different ways depending on the weapon. I didn't do a lot of testing for this, but for weapons that are effectively "fully reloaded" when the reload circle is 3/4 full (e.g. Hek, Rakta Ballistica, and I'd assume the vast majority of other guns), RB simply pauses the animation and resumes it afterwards. On the other hand, for weapons that aren't "fully reloaded" until the reload circle is 100% full (e.g. Synoid Simulor, Sonicor), RB cancels the animation entirely and you have to start all over again. Again, I didn't do extensive testing on this at all, so someone please correct me if I've said something incorrect.

Again, I didn't do extensive testing on this at all, so someone please correct me if I've said something incorrect. It seems to be based on reload stages and there's usually three stages, one being the initial mag release, second is putting in a new mag, and the third is cocking it back, which is usually the stage where the ammo counter actually fills and reload cancels are the best. For example, using RB at the second stage will reset the reload back to right after stage one, using it during the third stage will just reload cancel with the full mag.
