Urgent (Tesco Read) - Time Distortion Burst Bug found in 1.78

[Gandalph]

I am playing a solo game as Temporal and noticed my TDB's seemed to be doing more damage then they should. I went into the simulator and, sure enough, they are doing quad damage to anything, not just shields. One shot to an LC colony ship with no shields did 360 damage (TDB V Large Mount is 90 at 7). This is with patch 1.78, IIRC in 1.67 it was indeed quad damage to shields only then standard advertised damage to all else.

TescoSamoa - With this bit of info, Rifts could be a bit unbalanced.

Could someone else do a test to verify this?

[Q]

Yes I can confirm your findings (Version 1.78).
This bug is quite unbalancing and should be fixed as soon as possible.

[Rollo]

Yes, I can also confirm this. I have sent a savegame to Aaron.

Sugar... We will wait to see if this is fixed asap... I think there will be another patch coming out... Hopefully soon... Since the interface for the game has become very unstable...

Just ask Terran C...

And some other people have been complaining about the game locking up on them when they select the ship or fleet scroll buttons...

For Rifts... We will decide in the forum what we want to do with the weapon... They do cost tons of rads to build and support... And there one of my fav weapons... I hope they do not get Banned...

Houston, we have a problem.

I've just tested, and would like someone to confirm, all the modified damage vs shields damage types. They're all bad. 2x vs shields does 2x damage, period. Half and quarter vs shields is yielding the same thing.

Could someone please double check me on this?

They are all bugged.
