What happened to the skirmish battles? yes, the bots.
Lots of matches you get killed in a VERY strange way:
-
watch total damage taken (TDT);
-
compare that to shield+hull+resists+modules that increase resists (total hitpoints - THP);
-
notice the non-sense: TDT (that killed the ship) is about 80-90% (!!!) from THP. Yes, total HP are lower (!?) than the damage that killed you.
What kind of nerfing is that?
Reminder: there are modules which increase resists, for gunship, tacklers, command and so on. And they were active, obviously! But it seems they were inexistent…
A few examples: THP: about 20.000; TDT: about 12.000 !!
THP: 15.000, TDT: about 14.000;
THP: 15.000, TDT: about 12.500.
And so on… 
Cheers!
