Fortress Shield Exploit (or intended?)
« on: November 25, 2015, 06:14:03 PM »

Putting shields up, then mashing the toggle fortress shield key seems to result in ALL incoming fire getting blocked by the fortress shield. This is obviously very useful, since your autofiring weapons will be able to activate. I don't think this is intended behavior of the Fortress Shield, since it effectively mitigates most of the downsides of keeping it up all the time.

Makes the Forlorn Hope mission pretty trivial.

Thanks, fixed. It wasn't ramping up the effect properly but just applying the full bonus at any effect level.
