Matra Magic 2 now eats flares like the AIM-9L. [Has anyone else noticed this?]

This isn’t the first time, after the recent “Tusk Force” update, that I’ve been surprised by Magic 2 missiles easily tracking enemy flares after they’ve been fired.

This didn’t happen so easily before, and I thought it was just me, a mistake in my vision. But this has been repeated with many friends who regularly use Magic 2 missiles. The impression you get is that you are firing a Mirage Aim-9l missile that is only capable of carrying Magic 2.

Tell me, has anyone else noticed this and do you think it’s just you that this has happened to?

Yes, I have noticed this as well and it needs an urgent fix. In both front and rear aspect my Magic 2s have been eating flares or just outright refusing to track. Extremely frustrating for those of us who pay for premium time just for the game to not work as intended.

You’re just thinking something is happening that isn’t because you had a few launches get flared.

though did you notice that actual Aim-9L ignore a lot more flares than before, enemy can use all of his flares and Aim-9L will still hit.

Congrats you witnessed a player preflaring or flaring so much + turning off afterburner so the magic 2 goes for flares

There has been a bug with gatewidth that leads to canceling the narrowing, yet I would doubt if this thread is about this problem.
