My sheilds don't seem to be working, am I doing something wrong?

So I'm fairly new to the so its very possible Ive missed something, but latley it seems like some ships are just ignoring my sheilds. I have 5-6k sheild blocks on my ship, more than enough power to power them (though no power tanks) and if I get in a fight then ive noticed that after words my ship will have holes all over it, even if my sheild bar didn't go below 50%.

It is a well known bug (at least among players, don\'t know of developer). It might be a desynchronization issue between server and client, where server\'s opinion of \"did the bullet hit\" might differ from your perspective. Or it could just plain be a bug where antimatter ignores shields.

I\'ve noticed this as well only seems to happen under quite heavy fire, so i assume its just like you said a problem with Client-Server Synchornisation

I really hope they fix this, it completely ruins server play for me.

Between this and hits not even registering until your ship is dead, it can and does entirely break combat.
