Bubbling while your fleet has their drones assigned to you, will cause all those drones to attack you. It hurt a lot.

Is this a Feature or an Accident?

the new bit is that bubbling is now a hostile act.
Your assigned drones obviously don't know the difference and I'd say that's a "feature" to be fixed.

Believe in what they do, not what they say.

Not not a bug, its a feature

They put this in the patch notes, didn't you read them? It's right next to the part where they modify your boot.ini to install the client.

Maybe it's because you are such a terrible poster and they did it deliberately Lol

you sure do get some milage out of that.

you do realize the issue is one of the potential screwups ANY game company can make when deploying a new client to the masses.

Baah. Why should the FC have to manually order the destruction of the idiot friendly dictor who doesn't know how to time his drops? ...

Actually they should assign combat drones to ceptors and rep drones to you, but it's just an opinion.

Watch those rep drones "attack you" Lol
