Autocannon no longer destroys Bot Fabricators?

[YMD]

Those Fabricators had little vents at the top you could shoot Autocannon shots into which blows them up.
Suddenly does not work anymore, or is it just me? Pls help me confirm

^Still works, though may bug out at rare times.

That's never worked for me...

I don't think the AC to the open door works, grenades did. Vents I've had the odd one bug out from a position that I swear was straight on enough but didn't register with several shots. Usually just needed a slightly different angle and then it would pop.

It works. Or if you get elevation and shoot into it directly, it works.

I just got out of a couple missions and something does appear to have changed. my AC rounds into the vents were no longer detonating the fabricator. Normally I could snipe them from some distance provided I was face-on, but today none of the ones I tried sniping would blow.

Grenade launcher had no issue blowing them up on a separate run.

It works you just need to either be shooting at it from a higher angle or know the sweet spot to shoot the vent where it will cause the shot to richochet downwards. Sometimes it's just a ***** to do anyways even after you just did it 5 times with no issue.

Yea that's never worked for me either with the autocannon.

There's a bit of a bug right now that causes the shot to bounce straight down to the ground when shooting the autocannon in the vents. I only just noticed it today. I fired 5 shots at a fabricator's vents and 3 of the 5 hit the ground right in front of the door.

it was not working and i spent 3 clips trying every angle, i hope its not a bug.

I did it yesterday, but in the same session I was unable to destroy one no matter how carefully and how many rounds I put into it. It seems to require a very specific angle.

I've had the same thing happen. The game has only gotten glitchier since release.

Eruptor also works on bot fabs

Laser cannon can also destroy them, but trying to take them out with the autocannon is tedious, angle is everything, much better task for grenade launcher.

I have (rarely) had occasional desync issues where a console or enemy just glitches out and refuses to obey, maybe something like that happened
