They are the same, i checked that myself, all of them (well, excluding OES but i doubt anything changed there, not spending money on it).

I have not checked that.

would some one be willing /J

I can bet there are some people here who did

didn’t want to replace my talismaned TES for premium 50cal tes

@Gunjob just a double check for Bug Reports, can only the creator attach screenshots/replays/files to the report?

Yes, if the comments are open you can type and post links there, ss, files ect. are for creator only.

I have two different clips a week apart of my darts exploding. At this point it is a common occurrence.

Gaijin moments

We made at least 40 shots with 0 effect. Gaijin moment i guess.

Imma start the initial report with Chally 1 but i’ll list Chally 2s as affected too. I’ll also chuck "we suspect that the Chieftains are affected but testing wasn’t conducted.

It is genuinely a Gaijin moment, there seems to be no pattern as to whether sabots explode or not.

Well, the thing is i have never had Cr2 explode from dart in a long time, so idk. The tests i did in custom with a friend gave the same resaults as our test. Darts nope HESH yes

That can’t be as I’ve been spading the mk 3 this Christmas and can safely say the sabots in the ready rack explode even without hesh loaded. I know it’s the ready rack as it kept happening after my front left cheek gets penned and only hits one of the ready rack rounds.

you want to test that

Well, that is cleary a bug and gaijin moment. They seem to happen but you cant recreate them in controlled enviroment. Annoying
