Hey, i think i can remember that beam riding missiles do not give a laser warning, but it seems they do now.
I tested in a custom and following missiles we tested all gave a warning:
Vhikhir
Ataka
stormer hvm
barrel fired atgms
bmp atgms
did they always give a laser warning and i am miss remembering or is this new?
Stormer always triggered LWS. Very annoying. Especially given it shouldnt IRL
weird, but still i remember vhikhirs especially not giving one
if anything use laser as guidence it will provoke laser warning
it depends how they (users of Shkval targeting complex) use laser, because it has laser beam guidence (which goes to missile) or also laser rangefinder which can triger LWS
i can’t explain it much because i haven’t played them or researched this theme
yes but it says beam riding not laser
A laser seeker looks at what the laser is pointing at
a Beam rider follows the laser like a guide wire.
Both result in a laser being pointed at the target.
makes sense but i still remembered it not giveing a lw. but thank you
It has been inconsistantly buggy I think.
There have been periods of time where certain lasers dont, but its considered buggy behaviour and not intended behaviour
Not all lasers should trigger LWS, but Gaijin doesnt model low power lasers.
What kind of beam do you think its riding
idk, but like i said back in the day the vkhir did not give a laser warning
There was a bug report that said that beam rider lasers weren’t strong enough to trigger the LWS. I would have to go look for it
