' Wrote:My switchblade was also taking 'phantom damage' while I was killing the bases. Meaning, I was seemingly hit by nothing, no projectile, no splash against my shield or hull, yet their integritys kept dropping if I stood still. Did the mission bases get given turrets that are invisible?
Nothing to do with lag, as I've had this happen in open sp.
After reset, system has 4 to 6 wrecks. Shoot first one, 3-4 hits w/ lvl 5 turret, loot drops. Ditto for 2nd. No response on third after unloading w/ codies. Shoot 1 CD, BINGO. Loot.
Random order, about 1 in every 5 is the tough nut. CD opens it. Might be limited to new (custom) systems.

The reason that the bases don't die in some of the missions is becuase the game wants you to eliminate the fighters first. If you kill a fighter, you will notce that your HUD automatically targets the next fighter, NOT the station. At least that was my experience. THe Station was targeted after I had eliminated the fighers
' Wrote:More likely lag. Nothing like watching your hull disappear in chunks while you're unable to bat or bot because of the delay :/
It's not the lag. I got bored of shooting the base and killed all of the Xenos starfliers with my MR then went back to killing the base. Since there were no more enemies I sat still and shot at it, then my shield went down mysteriously and started taking hull damage.
Even after I killed all the NPCs the base still would not take any damage and I had to hammer at it for another 5 minutes or so until it blew up. Went from full HP to zero.

Sometimes base shots go invisible. (so I've heard)
