It´s never a bug it´s a feature :LOL:

Anyways i can´t say if this really was different in the earlier versions of the game cus basicly i always waited for the inters to land before i started the AoE stuff cus i wanted to be sure that it hits all targets + OS has some weirdness extra mechanic that seems to count for all weapons that have an "circle/wave" AoE (OS, Mine, Sticky and Bomb).

What i noticed here is that in the center the dmg of those weapons seem to be reduced as well, while on the other hand the dmg seems to increase the further a target is away from the center of the "starting point" (for OS the impact point).

Again i think that this is the case cus i mostly can´t kill 10 inters on Gazica when they are in the center of the impact but if i switch the os to the harv so that they get hit by the AoE they get killed.

Earlier it depended on the timing of arriving at the surface from the enemies. Some AoE weapons weren't strong enough and it was more efficient to just kill 6 inters instead having 10 damaged inters^^.
This phenomenon here was never in the game before (I play since early 2011).

I used this feature very often with Sticky Bombs, just use it on the harvester and inters are blown with insane damage.
