Corvette reflective shield & broadsides

Post by DumbMarine »

The broadside lasers seem to be inconsistent in how they react with corvette shields. They seem to bounce some of the time, but the corvette takes damage. I've been getting broadside kills against corvettes with their reflective shields up, but the lasers are sometimes bouncing.

I've also noticed some problems with the reflective shield but I always forget about it when the game ends. I'll look into it.

I thought all BC weapons were meant to still do damage to shielded corvette, although with some reduction. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I seem to remember discussing how complete immunity should only be granted vs small ship weapons.

The other BC weapons are affected by the reflective shield normally.

I think missles should be the only one that can punch through the sheilds like as if the sheilds only reflect light (lazers)

It is supposed to block everything but missiles and yamato.

some of my lazers will bounce off but others punch through, is this how it is supposed to work?

No, I'll see what I can find.

I found it. It's been fixed and will be in the next patch.
