Post combat lock.

this is probably part of the "fix" that makes lockdown much harder to implement
it used to be that you would attack your own base by a low-level alt of yours in order for your main base to attack enemy, and the enemy couldn't attack back
now the "fix" changes the rules so that a low-level alt does not get the lockdown advantage any more
you are probably attacking a base with an offense that is much lower than the defender's defense

Anyone in EA will fix this exploit ?
Seriously... now this game is "Play with the more accounts you can and use exploits like this one to win"

Really shitty I don't know how an exploit that make impossible to attack can be allowed

This shit is still going on! It doesn't matter if you attack a higher or lower base. Just attacked 2 higher level bases simultaniously, and with the post-combat lock bug there is no way to keep up with the attacks...
My patience is getting low about this and not even getting any answers with possibilities of what it can be.
started to notice it in Fire11 a while back (Pre 19.1 I think), and now still on Tib39 on v19.2...

@EE_Elephterion any idea of what it can be, or what triggers it?

Thx, Key...

Can you clarify? Are you attacking 2 player bases or 2 forgotten bases?

2 player bases in PvP.
Normally after the 2 minute attack time you should get the 'locked for your alliance', but more than once in a while, I get 'post combat lock' as I would have seen it if another alli had attacked it.

As I understand it I should be able to attack the same PvP enemy again at once after the combat timer (2 min) runs out...

I am informed that what you are seeing is by design. As @chertosha suggested, it part of the combatting of lockdown exploit.

I can't answer these questions, but maybe on Monday @EE_Elephterion will :wink:

I guess @EE_Elephterion wouldn't ;)

These extra seconds are added to the PCL of the attacker, making it harder to continuously cover a base with the same account. It seems you've triggered that for your attacks. How big is the difference between your Offense and the target Defense?

Same thing happening on tiberian 16 since years. 100% sure it's a bug. When you attack a base in pvp... normally... you have 30 seconds to prepare your next attack... And you can strike immediately... to prevent
support weapons... But sometimes... after 2-3-4 attacks... the behavior changes and you see "post combat lock" Like if the game was thinking that you are attacking a forgotten base. So you can't strike immediateliy after the "Under attack by tou" You have to wait 30 stupid seconds... and be quick... if not... the guy can move. Here we are used to play with that bug... But because I saw a post... I decided to comment. This is totally random situation. And occurs on lvl 66 off against lvl 65 defs. Or any other off-def configuration.
