I know it was already talked about but here i bring it once again
The sideplate is split into 4 sections, Driver, 2 crew compatrtment and engine
Pic with only p1 and p4 mounted
The measure was made based on the front part
But as can be seen, the front has a fender part that does not allow for mounting armor close to it
so it has a space there. It has been like that since early DL
Where they had to prepare a special frame so it will fit with the fender (labeled 1)
So we cant say for sure that the whole plate is 40, just like we cant say for sure it is over 40
The thing that would thorw some light on it is Holder that can be seen next to slat, looking like it is on 3rd drive wheel
Sadly the perspecive makes it hard to make out how much extended it is, as it looks like it is far over the slats, and that would not be possible.
I’m currently more about how reports are treated by technical moderators because as we can see by the two reports made there seems to be some kind of problem with having a proper argument about it or getting the devs to look further into it
At this point I’d have more trust and faith in EA doing a better job than what gaijin are doing.
The only actual good thing about this game is the graphics engine.
The modelling of penetration is problematic, the armour model is very problematic, the suspension, gearbox and drivetrain modelling is sub-par. Atgm modelling is abysmal, SAM modelling is best not discussing as it’s just laughable. All that really leaves is the graphics which are good.
honestly I find it funny how much gaijin fucks up and I bet their “improvements” will most likely nerf the challenger 2 and not actually fix any of the issues
