Hey, has anyone. . .

[Shadow Reaper]

. . .done the stuff here in this thread? Like what?

Has anyone shot down missiles or torpedoes with distortion cannons or pyrobursts? Do we know if these area affect weapons can be used as defenses against missiles?

 

[Printimus]

wut?

 

[DirectorGunner]

Let's test... Would you stand over there please... *locks 24 connie missiles* .... are you ready? :dizzy_face:

 

[makute]

Please no. I still have flashbacks about trying to shot down proton torpedoes in X-Wing vs Tie Fighter.

I have tried this three times. No word of a lie - I have missed every single time, so I gave up trying.

 

[BluePilote]

Since you comment... I did it twice... first time, half of the missiles missed... second time, size 2 were better...

It harder, range have been reduce?

Have this been changed/nerfed in 2.6.3? I can't lock and shoot more than 4 missiles at the same time on my connie.
How do you shoot that many?

Hit Z so you can look at the weapons panel, select missiles and hit the + button a zillion times, now all your missiles fly at once HOWEVER lock-on is now veeery long.

All I know is AOE weapons like flak cannons would be fantastic additions for ground units and ship turrets.

 

[Metal-Muffin]

All of this high technology so far in the future and we are calling for flak cannons? What about Phalanx or C-Ram type canons?

Just click many times on the buttons, it still work, but accuracy and locking times have been nerf a lot

I'll do a vid in off line mode

Ok, it works :slight_smile: Thanks!

28 size 1 missiles lock on 350R :slight_smile:




28 size 1 missiles launch :slight_smile:




350R is gone, the remaining missiles fly into space.




The next question is - 24 size 2 missiles don't lock at all. The display shows that I have them, but looks like they don't work. How to switch to size 2 missiles, when you run out of size 1?

Yeah, they just don't work in 2.6.3

They are planned for S6 mounts only. I have seen them on older weapons charts.

The S5 BEHR Ballistic Repeater is just such a cannon.
