@Smin1080p what about the other NATO tanks that suffer with that horrible HEAT shell stock?

It gets it because they're likely replacing the HEAT with HE.

Still doesn't justify that the others have 480mm pen HEAT stock and DM12A1 is STILL a copy paste of DM12 which was already reported at the introduction of the Type 90 (it should also have some HE effect as its a multi-purpose round)

[Stavroforos 15,367]

Mmm, M1A2 stock HEATFS grind, so much fun. 

[Spindash64 1,244]

That's why I have not played mine yet. I'm not prepared to spend GE On a tank for it to be competitive after the long grind, purchase and SL expense to obtain it for the rights to even play one battle with it (not including SL expense for expert crew). Not only making Assualt harder to even consider unlocking mods that way.

Well... this is it i guess...

 

Once again, it's been a honour!

Datamined the Flight Models and weapons. 

 

The AH-64 peten received a stinger loadout, the A-4 got a large buff that increases elevator sensitivity and toned down the compression overall. Ailerons also are ~30% more powerful now. 

 

All planes continue to have fire extinguish speeds increased and a few Italian props have had their gun modifications replaced with akans.

 

oh and the EEL FM received some tweaks.

 

 

As for weapons some Swedish bombs have had some tuning (increasing explosive mass and changing explosive type for example)

Some new cannons have been added for tanks?, ill let someone more qualified confirm that.

 

Some atgms have received increases in sensitivity.

 

  

 

Which Italian planes? Also akans? *Prepares for 1.99 thread by painting aerial regia marina recognition stripes on my body like a foot ball fan and making anti ship torpedo based air line up*

Farewell, soldiers

[RasmusG5 35]

is there a way to know if the fuel tank change effects my favorite vehicles?

[Stuhlfleisch 3,762]

Man, I am so excited for this update, so much great content, thank you Gaijin! 

 

It was fun writing with you guys, see you on the other side!

Sorry for a stupid question, but how to speed up the installation of the new update if I've already downloaded the DEV-client?

[Oldtimer1955 878]

Was your Dev downloading updates througout the week...if so, it will just copy the file from your Dev thus reducing DL time upon release

The live-launcher automatically copies over the data from the dev-launcher, you don't have to redownload the entire thing, if that's what you mean.

Had't noticed this before, maybe because my live-client is within Steam folder.

can anybody explain me this?

 

drag coefficient: how much aerodynamic drag the missile has

 

force: thrust of the missile's motor in newtons

 

maxDistance: maximum distance the missile can move from where it was fired before it self destructs

 

endSpeed: maxum speed of the missile in m/s (apparently 0 means there is no hard limit)

 

propNavGuidance timeOut: at a guess I would say it means that when you fire the missile it will not start maneuvering for the first 0.3 seconds. This is just a guess though and I'll need to do some testing.

 

constraints at 1000, 5000 and 10000m: I suspect this is just stat card / radar missile firing zone stuff. Again just a guess need to do some testing.

So we've managed to get about 12% of pages are hidden, not a bad effort on our part.
