Prototype Starburst Shockwave Cannon Problem

Post by Fallencomrade182 » Wed, 18. Feb 09, 20:53

I'l keep this short and sweet.
This only happens sometimes, and then maybe 30 minutes later its ok again, but its been occuring more frequently lately

When I shoot my starburst shockwave cannons from my springblossom they go straight through the enemy.. and No, its not bad aim, I think its impossible to have bad aint with such leathal weapons.

Any advice would be apreciated

Known problem. You can't do anything but reload the game or change sector--usually that will fix the problem. It's been suggested the issue is caused by saving your game while your FLAKs or whatever are actually firing, but I don't think it's been proved either way.

I can confirm the bug can occur anytime to any flak-type weapon. It happens to me very frequently after some minutes fighting against a lot of fighters. Maybe performance related?
