So the gears. Someone can check that out?
Yeah one moment, should have also applied to the CR3 right?, only that wont benefit iirc is the CR2E
Yes, that should be the case
Welp, CR2 just lost its only selling point

CR3 TD is going from full stopped to top speed (0 → 59kmh) in 16 seconds flat
You checked it now or it is before update?
Just now.
Abrams don’t even lap load
So if it a balance reason why does the CR3 TD take longer
Check the turning if it is smooth and does not lose so much speed
This is a base for the test
Yes its much better i cant upload my video due to the site resctring uploads but it is MUCH better now, it feels like a actual tank with a qualified driver and proper gearbox and not like some 16 year old jerry rigged his corsa’s transmission into it for shits and giggles

I did a very quick and quite rough test to compare Acceleration of the new and old Chally gears:
Speeds from 0 - X (seconds):
Challenger 2 Black Night (1200hp):
10mph: 1.6 → 1.4
20mph 5.3 → 5.3
30mph: 14 → 13.8
37mph: 23.3 → 22.4
Challenger 2E (1500hp):
10mph: 1.4 → 1.25
20mph: 4.2 → 4.2
30mph: 9.9 → 9.8
45mph: 20 → 26
These are quite rough I just manually timed it, some of the times could be off.
In short the standard Challengers IIs got an overall mobility buff at all speed and the Challenger 2E got a small/low mid speed buff but takes longer to get to its top speed.
Oh wow, so it only took them 3?, I forgot when first Cr2 was added(well, it was nearly 4, nearly 5 years ago, i missed the mark a little) , years to fix the damn gearbox, thing i screamed that is wrong since i got my hands on the CR2.

Cr2E should be unchanged, as it ony affected Cr2 with TN54
That’s strange then, I’m not sure why it’s been changed.
The patch notes did say Challenger 2 (all variants)
My results could be wrong but I’m pretty certain they’re reasonably accurate, maybe they decided to alter its gear ratios too
That would be weird. @Gunjob sorry for the ping, but do you know if Cr2E got changes as well?

I mean, we shouldnt really be surprised. What we need is that ready rack fix. At the minute that basically makes us a worse Abrams in the firepower department.

With that large of a ready round storage the M1 has this really made the Cr 2 now completely obsolete
