Cloon McCloon Space Fukery 6	Posted - 2014.09.03 02:13:00 - [1] - Quote When I fire a group of weapons, should they not either all fire at once, or none at all? It's happened to me a few times now where I have 8 of the exact same weapon linked to single group in my battleship, and hit the fire button while getting a lock, and it fires just as they go to warp or jump through a gate, and only a few of the rounds actually shot... the rest are still loaded and didn't fire. Is there any way to prevent that? Thanks

Remiel Pollard Shock Treatment Ministries 4413	Posted - 2014.09.03 12:45:00 - [4] - Quote I brought this up last year, and filed a bug report. It was such a small thing though that I kinda just got used to only grouping guns and launchers undocked and forgot it was even a thing. Totally forgot I even filed the bug report, which received the generic "thanks for reporting this" spiel and was subsequently closed. GÇ£Some capsuleers claim that ECM is 'dishonorable' and 'unfair'. Jam those ones first, and kill them last.GÇ¥ - Jirai 'Fatal' Laitanen, Pithum Nullifier Training Manual c. YC104

Mara Pahrdi The Order of Anoyia 815	Posted - 2014.09.03 19:32:00 - [8] - Quote Good to know and thanks for sharing. I usually group and load my weapons while docked. Remove insurance.
Ralph King-Griffin Lords.Of.Midnight The Devil's Warrior Alliance 4605	Posted - 2014.09.03 19:47:00 - [9] - Quote Oh I load them in station iv just never bothered grouping in station before. Cheers for the info. =][=

Claudia Osyn Mythic Security Service 924	Posted - 2014.09.03 19:56:00 - [11] - Quote How do I unfit the guns from my pod? I want to put a cloak on it... The lack of money is the root of all evil.

The old fashioned way, hold shift and drag on top of the others. All that modern one button click easiness, bah....

Bienator II madmen of the skies 2815	Posted - 2014.09.03 21:36:00 - [13] - Quote it can be even worse when you reload and it only loads one gun and it tells you that the group is out of charges when you try to fire again (you see it as full clip). I am pretty sure this bug is related to what you are experiencing, i reported it about a year ago. I even lost ships because of that since i didn't see the notification in combat and i couldn't fire. eve style bounties (done) dust boarding parties imagine there is war and everybody cloaks - join FW

A million times this, especially with laser crystals (obviously the ones that degrade) You have to unload all the crystals and load them again before you can fire again. There is no such thing as a fair fight... If your fighting fair you have automatically put yourself at a disadvantage.

Ima Wreckyou The Conference Elite CODE. 200	Posted - 2014.09.04 06:45:00 - [16] - Quote Yeah, this bug is pretty horrible if it happens during a gank since every shot counts. I am not 100% sure, but I think I also encountered this after I started to group them in space, but it certainly reduces the probability of it happening. the Code ALWAYS wins

Greg Valanti Righteous Immortal Pew Dead Terrorists 115	Posted - 2014.09.04 17:31:00 - [20] - Quote I almost always group my guns while in station when first fitting a ship and never knew about this bug. I wonder how many times I've been gimped because of it without knowing.

Xercodo Vector Galactic The Big Dirty 3762	Posted - 2014.09.04 18:06:00 - [21] - Quote From what I can tell this is only graphical and the numbers still show up. This also seems to be more prevalent when totally overkilling something smaller, such as doing 3000 damage to an NPC frigate that only had 500 HP. In this case it's fairly common for me to see only one gun fire. The Drake is a Lie

I wonder how many times I've been gimped because of it without knowing. I as well. I would suggest having not only a game tester but a code tester as well but CCP's financial position is such that we would never see that. It is far better to have the paying customer do that work. I believe in being Pro-Active as Opposed to Reactive. Reactive tends to be more costly in time and money.
