    yes I agree my phantom escort with 2 epic rcs consoles now turns like a pig stuck in mud, way to go cryptic

    Ok, so it isnt just me. This...change...makes cannon boats nearly unplayable.

    well if I'm in a fast turning escort with 2 epic rcs consoles and I now turn like a pig in mud then God help anyone without rcs consoles, this has to be a bug

    I dont believe it should be the norm. If it was, it reduces cannons to garbage gear and any ship with 20 or less turn rate auto beam boats. My stock turn rate is 16 and after two purple rcs both boosting 45% each AND the hydrodynamics compensator i can barely put nose on target where before i could make a pass, and spin around for another pass rather easy.

    I want SKILLED play. Not the spacebar bashing boredom i had on PC where beams where better because of more time in arc.

    Yes! I made a new character to level up through the X2 Xp weekend and it feels like I'm going to break my Xbox controller trying to turn it.

    Yes. I just tested it myself - and it's actually easy to test because of a bug.

    I tested it in a Valiant, because the high turn rate makes it obvious. Fly your ship in a straight line, full speed, then turn fully (the new patch allows you to pitch and yaw in an analog manner (which is probably the source of at least this bug), so slow/slight turns are possible). Hold that turn, then open an ability menu by holding down a button, and keep holding it. Because of a current bug, your ship will probably turn the other way while you're holding down the ability button - and it will turn faster than when you were turning it. When the bug is happening and it is turning your ship, it turns at full speed (that is, the speed at which it turned up until the last patch). When you are turning your ship yourself, it is apparently only performing a partial turn.

    It is also very obvious in small craft.

    My post was a joke, in case you missed the :P... My point was that it was a bug... and since bugs after patches are "the norm"... catch my drift?

    Havent really noticed it too much, usually in a cruiser, but switched to a new KDF toon for the bonus XP, although, Evasive manouvers didnt seem as potent, but i was fully concentrating i have to say
  • malfanmalfan Member Posts: 13 Arc User
    Ive noticed it be because i play escort 100% its un playable now i can hardly turn or speed boost! Is this a bug or a new norm?!

    I am playing on PS4 with a Faeht, and i have the same problem, Faeht and Malem are turning like a science or a may be a cruiser. Today i completed the Delta quadrant Vaadwaur mission "Revolution" while piloting the Vaadwaur ship, and even with the this ship which was like a ferrari with its 2 RCS consoles (2x45% turn rate) had a very awful turn rate... The last time i have completed this mission, this ship was turning very fast...
    it is no more possible to play an Escort with dual cannons because of this turn rate :'(
    Please Fix this.

    I noticed my ship's felt a little "heavy" but I thought it was just me.

    The devs already know about this bug. It was posted elsewhere on the day of the patch, and Tacofangs replied and said it was being looked into.

    Spartan is Cryptic... THE guy to report this kind of thing.. support is PWE, so it take some time to get some feedback, but Spartan will solve it, as always.. :smile:

    I suspected that. I'm just not use to this level of communication. I thought with a game as old as this and it being new on console, it would be rather good. communication wise.

    game is kinda like an investment opportunitie. but no one seems to reassuring it's potential investors.
  • the1tiggletthe1tigglet Member Posts: 1,421 Arc User
    It was actually very bad at launch too I'm not sure what they are doing over there but turning on any of the ships I was using while leveling before the patch would make the ship dive or fly upward, and now everything is in mud. It's weird.
  • fcedfced Member Posts: 385 Arc User
    I have done some tests this morning with 3 different ships (Faeht, T'laru, Scryer), and no matter the ship, the turn rate is very bad...
    When you are in a star system (fighting or not) the turn rate should change depending the starship throttle speed... but it do not change...
    Actually , the turn rate is the same whatever we are at 25% / 50% / 75% / 100% throttle speed...
    It is different if we are in a quadrant (tour the galaxy), in the quadrant between the systems, the turn rate change depending the throttle level...
    I really hope they will fix this today, because they killed the dual cannons...

    I was hoping they'd fix these annoying bugs today, but seeing as there is no maintenance today, guess we wait longer...

    This game would of turned Gene Roddenberry into a Star Wars fan lol
