    Not only that but since it doesn't activate the top and you still shoot the bottom turrets, you cant even aim. you can only move the cursor up and down. not even left or right.

  • Same problem here. If I remember correctly, I think it worked a couple of times for me in the beta, but every time I've tried it since the Access trial, it hasn't worked properly.

    PC. Yes this also does happen to me. After entering the AAT I couldn't use the second ability (the middle one). The cannon's head does not move and instead, you shoot only with the two side guns. The animation of the run time of this 'siege mode' does work, and it goes into cooldown correctly. But it doesn't activate anything else then. When pressing the middle ability, you cannot control your vehicle (which is correct) but you can't shoot with the upper cannon.

    I tried a few times but it doesn't seem to work.

    This bug is still a thing. I have tested this twice (24 and 25 March 2018) with the AAT on Kashyyyk, and it still doesn't work.

    However, the situation has changed from earlier.

    Before, I pressed the siege mode button, the vehicle stopped (as it should), but only fires the front cannons.

    Now, you press the siege mode button, the vehicle doesn't stop and it just goes on shooting with the front cannons. The ability shows the animation that you can run it for a limited time, but nothing actually happens. It also goes into cooldown with the animation.

    Anyone else has encountered this after the latest patch?

    Just wanted to higlight this bug, since it is still in the game. However, after some testing, I found out that it can actually be fixed by changing the keybindings to a key that is not the normal one. So you have to change it from the defaul one to make it work.

    I've tested this again and the conclusion is that it is still bugged.

    If I reset the keybinding of the siege mode to "2", it will activate the ability but it won't do anything. If I change the keybinding only of that ability to "R" or even "5" it works.
