    Meh you think you got problems? If i use my talk key while on the ground my toon goes into "aim" mode, and when i clear the bind to clear the problem it magically doesn't, plus all the keys i could use as a TS talk key around where my hand is wont clear either!

    ( ) This close to just using a pair of cups and some string attached.

    I think there is a calm way to say this. I am sure it will get fixed soon (tm).

    oh is that all? lol, i couldn't tell what you were going on about in the OP.

    ya i can all but confirm that that happened to me in the last 2 matches i played as a kdf. unless an odyssey has better natural stealth sight then a sci ship does. i was 'detected' at about 6 range, each time with faw. the FIXED this, wtf?

    i doubt its the oddy. this never happened last patch. i only seen this happen after s6 came. nothing is around im just using faw with space bar and my weps just start shooting. thats the only way that i know cloaked ships are around. honestly how do they always seem to mess up faw so badly every time?

    It's a new issue.

    If there are any other targets in the area, faw will decloak you. Often times with devastating results.

    We caught it on camera today. And it will be going in my next Video Thread.

    you dont need a target lock to shoot faw at cloaked ships. just need faw running and space bar. glad you got fraps to show this to lol devs

    Hmm... not what I saw when I took a FAW ship to a fleetaction yesterday. FAW appeared to have 100% accuracy, fire at cloaked ship, and land crazy hard hits...

    you know whats more funny

    I remember in the past,
    Its broke
    na its fixed

    na its broke

    na its fixed

    na its broke

    na its fixed

    na its broke

    na its fixed

    na its broke

    na its fixed

    and now you say na its broke
    sounds like a repeat
    so in a week is it gonna be fixed?

    but i do understand what the op is saying, i was flying my bop (L'naan) cloaked getting ready to pounce on a cruiser and he suddenly hit faw, most of his beams started hitting me making me take damage, so i made the best out of it and finally decloaked and poped him (he must of been a noob cuz i didn't see any tact team or he didn't know how to distribute shields :D )

    So yea it should be looked at

    As someone who has been spamming FAW since the update, it does NOT have 100% accuracy.
    I haven't noticed it shooting at cloaked ships, though the stray looking beams I note to shooting at pets and such that I don't really see anymore so it could be shooting cloaked ships but I doubt it. Though I haven't done much FvK so I can't say much besides "nothing obvious".
    Its damage is nearly is more or less on the same level as pre-update. I haven't noticed a dramatic increase or decrease in damage.

    That said I do believe that the accuracy has improved, possibly they fixed the acc mod issues. Though I have not noticed any 100% accurate FAW's, I still see all sorts of misses when shooting at pets and such.

    the only reason im running faw is for those new fleet events, it would be utterly silly not too. its more then accurate enough, with the omega deflector, to hit everything just fine there. but not in pvp, and it lowers the damage you want to deal to some one if theres anyone else around. of course this new decloaking is disturbing though.

    I confirmed this my self when I was On with my Sci ship that has FAW.

    Reminds me to way back when FAW used to act like this. And that was before they added the Extra Beam that Faw is supposed to give you on your targeted enemy. :rolleyes:

    Finally saw this myself in a arena match. My cloaked vessel isn't even close for that off chance of getting detected due to proximity, but this goes off and i'm dropped out of cloak.

    Broken to hell.

    You can also test this out in PVE. Do a Starbase 24 instance. Find that lone BOP and do an aoe attack like Torpedo Spread. Instead of 1 series of torps going to the lone detectable BOP, you'll see streams of extra torpedoes find their mark on these "undetected" NPCs.
