This is not a QQ. This is a lolwtf is this a bug? (happened twice btw)
Anyway, I'm in my cdread(zlarr, benchford, x6 adv def) fighting against a mandible(x8 enhanced weap multi). I was 200gu away from Kona. My side was FIRMLY turned toward the Mandible . My NP6 armor/shield went down normally for a mandi, but my rear armor/shields went down awesomely fast. They went down 80% per alpha(while my NP6 shields were going down as well). It was like a invisible EAD was firing at my rear. The mandi couldn't possibly be damaging my rear, as my side was firmly turned toward it. There was ABSOLUTELY no weapon fire going to my rear. So how the heck was I getting damaged on that arc?
So my questions are:
1. How can someone damage both arcs at once if one arc is pointed toward them?
2. Is this a bug? [ This Message was edited by: Persistance on 2012-03-20 17:00 ]

Where you orbiting the planet?
If so, turning when in orbit doesn't update your direction. You need to physically move forward to update it. It's a known bug.

Combat dread.
and seriously, does the bug also cause damage to be doubled over the arcs?

well that coupled with the fact that you may not have seen aditional ai that may have been firing on you. sometimes i have to go to the map and click on something in another system, then click back to my position to get ai to show up sometimes

Yeah, I've just been sitting there, and all of a sudden my armor takes massive damage and I get hulled.
I'm lucky to catch it and jump out, and when I go to nav to click around and figure out wtf happened, I find out that a frikkin dread was shooting me...

So it was prob the orbit bug.
It happens when you fire missiles while in orbit too.

This happend to me today. Twice.
Both times I was killed by it. Minding my own business, shooting someone else, when I start taking massive damage for no reason. Just before I die, a dread just APPEARS.
Also getting a cloak delaying by 15 seconds. Worst I've ever seen the lag under non-high population.
