Capital Ship doesn't damage enemy ships?

While fighting in the high intensity cz for the current community goal , an empire capital ship spawns but its main cannons don't do any damage because it looks like the beam is stopping just before actually hitting the ship they are targetting.

The only way it does damage it seems is with its anti air cannons but those seem woefully underpowered.

Is this a bug or is it intended so the cap ship doesn't kill everything? I ask because with the already really low spawn rate (and mostly of junk like cobras and eagles) I imagine if it actually did function as intended there wouldn't be anything left for us to shoot.

I call Conspiracy!
It's all a big sham, in an attempt to convice the public that the minor factions are under serious threat!

Someone call Zeitgeist quick...! :D

So no problem right? Unless you were hoping for some afk farming shenanigans.

Except the capital ship "exploit" has been fixed. Capital ships are now treated like players for kill attribution, making capital conflict zones worthless because of the capital ship's firepower.

Well, except in this instance it seems. Imperial quality ? :D

So maybe this is the fix for the fix then?

Old technique. Used loads in MMO's to give the illusion of a mass battle when in reality no damage is being done to either party. I see it all the time in Everquest 2, TESO and SW:TOR

Except the Farragut (Federal capital ship) actually wrecks everything around it. Doesn't make sense.
