anyone got information on the turret traverse rate of the AS90? i’m looking to give it a buff
everything ive seen seems to say its pretty much correct ingame
oh right,
in addition is there any info on the gunner sights?
can’t actually check what they are right now, but they are bugged anyway
Whelp, heres hoping they take note of it, I also copied over my reloading chart as a comment to try to nudge the balancing factor issue too (lets be real, being able to fire off 4 rounds for the GBT firing 2 as a stock crew is… excessively different, and 7 for 3, and so on and so on)

My reports to improve the Vickers GBT’s reload rate and reduce the AS90’s weight have both been accepted

Now we have the datamines I thought I’d make a quick summary as a lot of the stuff is easy to miss:
-
The Scimitar has had it’s armour layout reworked, the armour is overall thicker and now mostly volumetric. The side hull armour especially is a lot thicker, the mantlet is also now volumetric and is quite effective against autocannons.
-
Gear ratio changes:
AEC MK.II (and AA), Achillies series, Alecto, Caernarvon, Challenger 2 series, Chieftain900, Churchill MK.VIIs, Conqueror MK.2, Ratel 20/90, Stormer series, ZT3 Mk3
These have slightly altered the speeds and handling of these vehicles, notably the Caernarvon has got a bit faster in forward and reverse.
Theres lot of other small changes but those are the most notable ones that havent already been covered in the changelog
Now essentially .50 proof
Due to RPM change, not actual ratio i do think
Also rpm im sure
Ditto
Others have actual changes to their gear ratios
Ill double check these when im home
I was just going off what Gszabi said, but you’re probably right, maybe it had both?
Another nice change is that they improved the neutral steering on the Caernarvon and Conqueror, it’s noticably better now.
It’s much better, however, it does seem like the turret sides are a bit weaker now. I don’t remember being able to .50 cal them, which you now can.
The actual hull side armour going from 20mm to 32mm is amazing though
Dev updated, still no falcon radar

Sea Harrier blue fox radar had some minor changes but still only 10% of all the missing features have been added.
They seem to have gotten cold feet over the Falcon’s radar now, I don’t know why they announced it without even having properly made their mind up

Looking at the datamine on GitHub, I think they’re on Tornado GR.4 as well now, aren’t they?
Glad it finally got added
yep, and now they are saying that even if it dosent get a radar its not going down in BR

just typhoon 😭
The GBT’s turret armour has been buffed a little bit from 17mm to 20mm, this now makes it basically .50 cal proof
No reload changes though
I need to check AS90 when im home in like 30 mins, a lot of my reports were accepted so i want to see if they changed anything yet
