Aeon Torpedo bomber issue?

Postby Okpuck » 05 Feb 2020, 21:07

Hello,

I would like to know what is the reason why the ACU remains visible 10 sec after torpedo fires from AEON torpedo bomber.
If you look at game (replay id 10998796) from 8:00min to my death, my ACU (Okpuck) is almost always visible!!!!!
We make a trial with Mimikz to identify the potential issue in replay id 10999176 to have confirmation of that.
Could you give me some explanations? Because it's really powerful!!!!
Thanks in advance for your support.

Intel isn't cleared right away, but after few seconds. You oppnent always targeted you before losing you on the sonar. And everytime some torpedo bomber flew over you, he got the intel again since you didn't have stealth upgrade.

Nothing abnormal in this replay.

Actually I take it back, after further investigation, it looked a bit weird so I started digging and found that when the depth charge hits, it creates a vision entity at the impact with 30 radius and 10 second lifespan.

So ... it's a feature.

Hi Speed,

Thx for your answer but 10 sec seems to me really long. I think that 5 sec would be better but it's just my mind.
When you watch my game, my ACU is almost always visible until my death. Anyway as it is feature then I would know it for next time :)
Moreover, i wasn't aware of this kind feature on the torpedo aeon bomber. I investigated to understand my death.

Have a nice day.

BTW, I will make a trial with this feature on ACU stealth this evening to see what will happen.

It will get revealed for 10 sec each time the depth charge hits. And everything in 30 radius.

Even with the stealth, if the torpedo hits ACU, ACU remains visible during 10 sec. As you said that it's feature then no bug :)
Thx for your support. Why this ability is only for AEON torpedo bomber while the cost is same for each torpedo bomber race.

Write a letter to GPG and ask them why they've designed it like this. :D
