Proxy mines delay when throwing


(doxjq) #1

Is this intentional or a bug? There’s nothing in the patch notes about it. Another thread was made but it isn’t in the bugs section so it might go unseen.

There is a huge delay when throwing Proxy mines now. It feels like half a second. The hand animation happens straight away but the mine has a huge delay after being thrown so they look out of sync, hence me thinking it might be a bug. Kind of like when you’re playing on a ridiculously high 500ms ping or something.

You can see the huge delay after throwing. My ping is only 38ms, and my connection is stable. People seem to not be reporting this but reporting that her mines can’t be thrown any more, so I have no idea what is up.

I had this too, assumed it was an undocumented change or that I just hadn’t read the patch notes, since it feels like it was intended.

Hey there,

Another user has asked about a similar issue on one of our Reddit threads. Here is Naxxus’ response:

“All throwable items received some tweaks in the code in this release to try and fix a multitude of issues (most noticeably the double mine/health pack bug) this is one of the issues that needs to get ironed out and we are working on a fix. Thanks for reporting this issue we will get on this ASAP.”

Hope this helps ^^

Any chance this will be fixed before the DBN Proving Grounds this weekend?
