bullets don't go through grills

[Finefire984]

Bug Description: On the new update bullets no longer go through grills at least electric, grills they break them instead. I don't know if you wanted this to happen but you asked for bugs


Steps to reproduce:
1.build a grill
2.shoot at the grill
3.grill should break

[Garbage]

I actually think this is better than the old way. I mean shooting through grilles without shattering them is pretty unrealistic. Did your super marine training teach you to curve bullets through numerous narrow gaps?

This also fixes issues with hangar defenses.

I also think this is for the better. Electric grills were really really bad

[ParadoxSpace]

Intentional clearly

Electric grilles were really one of the only good defenses marines had without relying on a competent/exsisting RO/someone to do their job and get plasteel. RIP marine defences.

Eh, I'm okay with this staying. There's supposed to be an engineering update that would add more construction methods.

For everyone who says this is intentional and should stay, look how bad this has fucked up the balance. Marines currently have no way to stop crushers outside of plastisteel now, which comes in a very limited supply. I personally have not seen a marine win since this update has gone into effect. I am guessing this bug has a large part to play in this.

This aint no bug,E grilles are OP,read updates and logs!

That's a very bad guess, judging by all of the complaints marines have about not being able to shoot straight or even remotely close to home. This actually gets rid of something nonsensical and OP (indestructible death grilles that are instant doom for aliens) that has long been contested.

E grilles are OP!

So are Chargers, yet I've yet to see a nerf to them. Instead they just removed one of the only 2 counters we had to chargers.

Accuracy has been largely fixed. It is a lot closer to pre-patch levels now and marines are still losing every game. Want to guess the other big difference? Observe any game now and try to look for FOBs or firebases. You will see a few tables flipped over and maybe a plastisteel circle big enough for 8 people at an LZ or the center of nexus. Marine FOBs are nowhere close to the scope or size we had before and its seriously hurting marines. The moment a marine assault fails they have to book it right to the shuttle because they won't be able to hold nexus for more than a minute. It just encourages ship turtling even more because marines don't have a proper place to make a last stand on planets anymore. Also saying that egrilles are indestructible is far from the truth. Chargers can make mincemeat of a 3 girder deep egrille in a few minutes, boilers can destroy them with acid, or aliens can just take out engineering and wait for power to fail. People on the forums have been quick to yell "OP PLZ NERF" at anything slightly powerful the marines have, which has resulted in them losing 80% of the games in the past month, and 100% of the games (that I've seen at least) since the patch.

Intentional.
