Ever playing Moon map, and the downside of center beacon were protected from projectile type of weapons by unseen force?  Yup, it came from Fujin/any Ancile bots guarding the center beacon upside. All they have is just sitting there, and the force will cover themselves, and some part of area below, from projectiles. Try it, test it for yourself, and correct me if I'm wrong. I've reported it to Pixonic, but only the same auto respond came back. |

Not sure that's a glitch. Anciles have always expanded through physical objects. It is usually a deficit, as it allows players to take down your shield while you hide behind cover. -Amid |

Maybe in that horizontal circumstance, it's understandable enough. But I don't think it's fair when it effects other areas that treated as separate "environment". |

The beacons are all really close on this map so I'm sure that sitting guarding one beacon is going to be a limitation. I'm really loving this map at the moment but it's got me seriously thinking about my hangars. I'm not sure how competitive slower bots are going to be, I suspect we're going to see more smaller, faster bot roaming the moon.

I think it is little tricks like that which make games interesting.
Kind of like the "Dirty Little Secrets" video I want to try and do. It would obviously feature DirtyLikaRat himself! hahaha

My morning coffee can't have kicked in so I'm not sure if this is positive or not. I don't know if its possible to be 100% invincible in the game. I know that it was very difficult to defend a beacon because when I was facing one way a "red" sneaked up from the other direction and smacked me. It's possible to get close really quickly on this map, and attacked from front, back or above. The closest to this is Dead City or Power Plant. |

I guess you didn't . Because if you get it, you'll understand that there's NO WAY we (who's on the low tunnel) can kill the guy (whose ancile block our projectile weapons) on the tunnel above. |

You can just go to the second level to kill him though, this isn't a glitch and he isn't really invulnerable. It's the way energy shields are projected outwards in a sphere and they go through obstacles and as we now know, floors as well. I guess fujins will work really well here, since their rate of shield regen is extremely high compared to an ancile. But they are also much more vulnerable compared to a Ancelot. An orkan Fujin might be able to hold off a lot of crap in there. |

You can just go to the second level to kill him though Oh c'mon man... I know that hahaha  . But what I mean is: since when we shall go around and around to THAT far side of the map to kill someone, because our shots blocked by the same person on THIS near side of the map? It's not something like claymore mines or whatever with any remote activation capability, where he could planted one here and activates it there. |

It's not something like claymore mines or whatever with any remote activation capability, where he could planted one here and activates it there. You don't have to go around the map, just go up the ramp and to the right with a standard bot, or jump up with a Jump bot, unload and the problem is solved. How approach this will be different depending on the bot that you have. Below are options for solo players with heavy bots. If you are in a squad, you can modify this. Plasma Griffin: Get Ancile bot to fire and miss then just jump in and fire away. Exit the mid level jump down, kill bot on the bottom. DB Griffin: Same as above but get inside the Ancile bubble then fire. DB Rhino: Go up ramp, turn toward beacon, with shield up charge center beacon, get inside Ancile, drop shield and fire. Hellfire Rhino: Go up ramp, turn toward beacon, with shield up charge center beacon while firing magnums. Get inside Ancile, drop shield and fire. Plasma Ancilot: Read forums while progressing toward ramp and then turn toward center beacon. Get a snack while heading for the center beacon then start firing when in range. Bot will either vacate area or have team mates join in on their attack on you. In the meantime, you team grabs other beacons and the game ends before you get to the beacon. (yes, there is some humor and sarcasm in this response but I'm speaking from experience ) Thunder/Taran Lancelot: Head up the ramp, turn toward beacon, fire thunder and plasma when in range. Shield bot will leave the area or die in most cases. |

I'm not sure how competitive slower bots are going to be, I suspect we're going to see more smaller, faster bot roaming the moon. I run a heavy hangar and this is my favorite map. A DB Rhino can terrorize medium and light bots on this map if played correctly. Even more so if you have a team mate with an Ancile helping to protect you. This map is all about the angles and how to shield your bots from fire. You can hold the beacon but you can't sit at the beacon, you have to use cover and angles Red to guard the beacon. |

The update's only been out less than a month and you've already broke it.
This is why we can't have nice things!

If I wanna exploit that, I won't report it, and I won't post this thread here, just keeping it to myself, will I? |
