I thought they were fixing a bug about the 20mm backplate not registering, that looks like more than just 20mm of additional protection?
I really wish they’d invest the time in making relikt era operate in line with the laws of physics rather than a (getting even worse) flat penetration reduction regardless of angle.
A simple lookup table would be far superior to what we have now.
Add to this the absurd denial of the anti-era properties of l27a1 by gaijin. You know, the round which was tested against acquired t-80s and happily penetrated them frontally. Same company which will just invent a seeker head for the Russians but demands classified data for others.
But no, we get the turm 3 stabiliser improvements and then just making life worse for ground players with the new aircraft weapons and mechanics.

You’d think so
I mean to be fair, ERA acting with even remotely correct physics would probably fry half the playerbases PCs and Gaijins servers alongside with them. But some stuff like the interaction between ERA and Autocannons really needs to be changed.

Great name.

Sure it’s complex, which is why you abstract stuff out, like a simple lookup table.
Is it perfect? Nope. Is it better than just taking the most lazy solution possible? Absolutely.
For a company which pushes realism as much as they do, they have some awful gaps in what they choose to make realistic.
The stuff I’d rather they fixed than the bloody turm 3 or loal, arm etc
- make helicopters not be invisible to arh missiles when they’re hovering. The fact that they are is unfathomably stupid. Exhibit A
-
make lidircm actually work properly. Actually put the effort in and make the angles work as well as the limited number of missiles it can target. Also make it largely useless against modern heat seekers.
-
make era obey the laws of physics
-
actual regenerative steering
They have, check the KA 50/52

They are?? Abrams is eating good this patch…
So far
Yeah seems like all M1s will get their turret ring buffed.
They didnt, in fact the turret ring feels somewhat worse, not sure but i even struggled less to pen with 30 mm apfsds, idk if latest dev buffed em, ill check
were you using the m1a1? i think that’s the only one that has had its model updated
i was fighting em, also they feel pretty much the same for all
Well the m1a1 is the only one that has the updated model so far
By how much are we talking about here mate?
Dunno I’ve seen folks saying it’s been improved, which will help massively the abrams mitigate the instant death from 30 - 40mm autocannosn.
so it’s only the M1A1? bit random they would do it only on that one?
Wait, are they fixing it or is this jsut a hopeful what if?
Probably juat testing it on one that gets a lot of play time to collect data. Hopefully.
at least on my end i havent struggled to pen them at all
Its now volumetric but a BMP-T was still getting through it and spalling damages the gun controls making your tank unable to shoot back.
I’ll check it when it’s out, I’ve already got most every abrams in game anyway so .
