Why is the Stormer HVM so bad?

So Devil also didnt say he was going to buy everyone a round at the bar?

Sorry i dont get it :/

Apathy or incompetence is the most probable reason for leaving STARstreak in this pitiful state.

I suppose the missile devs or code wranglers might just also be so tired of trying to fix the missile that they are leaving it like this out of spite, but that’s less likely. After all, there are potential premiums armed with these weapons that could be sold. (VERDI Warrior, when?)

I’d like to see them try just giving the missile a very tiny (but highly lethal) proximity fuse for a week or 2 just to see if that helps.

I honestly feel like they downgraded their servers when this started happening. Ever since then I have experienced weird stuff with tank models floating around and not rendering to the correct location. Especially when playing in CAS you notice it. It’s like in heli PvE where the targets don’t render to the correct server location until you lock them (which makes the mode useless for anyone that doesn’t have an autotracker lmao). We know the revenue isn’t going into server upgrades that’s for sure.

Day 270, only 3 more days and we are at 3/4 of a year.

Might get the stormer a cake at the year mark.

That’s cause you’re only counting since the thread on the new forums. Just count since it’s been broken, we’ve already passed the 4 years mark.

Oh, for sure, but I’m just going on the date of my first bug report.

It wasn’t amazing before then with the less common phasing issue, but that’s when it really went to shit.

We need to reach the five year mark. Then GJN will give us a dev blog explaining why we are wrong for thinking the Starstreak is broken.

No doubt we will get there 🤣

It’s nuts this phasing issue is still present. We have a verified bug which cripples the vehicle and they just don’t seem to care.

I’m a software developer and it’s baffling to me this could be allowed to happen.

@Smin1080p - Me again. Any update or news on this issue? If you don’t have anything, can you please reach out to the devs and find out what the hell is going on? This issue needs fixing.


Just add this as a folder’d vehicles job done

The issue is under investigation. It’s a complex matter that seems to be somewhat unique to Stormer. The developers are exploring possible causes and resolutions.

You would think they would just give us the stormer air defence or something until they can fix the Starstreak.

We’re not getting the LMM in all likelihood, devil06s suggestion went nowhere unfortunately.

Christ, I’d be happy with a chaparral as a temporary fix. Something, anything to plug the gap from 8.7 to 11.8 as the stormer is effectively not existent at the moment.

Do we have any sort of timescale, or any plan to mitigate the issue until it can be fixed properly?

Something as simple as a temporary proxy fuse on the Starstreak would help, although they may need some HE filler as they would be detonating away from the target.

Until the causation of the issue can be identified, it’s not possible to provide a timeframe at this moment in time. The developers are investigating it.

Wouldn’t the simplest solution be to simply add a stormer equipped with starburst as it removes the star streak from the equation and the vehicles model is already 95% done? Long term when the star streaks are fixed it just adds a 2nd spawn to deal with the mountain of cas at high tiers?

Ok, I understand. What about something to mitigate the issue until an actual fix can be developed?

Cripples two vehicles if you count the AH Mk.1.

I spent a substantial chunk of my life grinding the british apache, and I only got to use it for a month or two before they dropped this bug on the starstreak.

Basically what it boils down to, is the devs are not competent enough to even identify what is causing the issue, never mind fix it. Embarrassing state of affairs for a game developer that charges so much money for products.

This in regards to the roland systems 2 stage motor? It’s also a thrust vectoring missile but in game you’d think it was being steered by a ships rudder

yes
