New cheiftain and challenger 2 sounds are a huge improvement. Good job gaijin… Rare day i can say that. Even rarer saying it about something British… Even rarer than that being a good sound change.

@Gunjob maybe a silly question and not one particularly limited to CR2, but are you aware of the devs limiting spall liners to certain BRs, or is this a case of “if it has it, it has it” and I can bug report vehicles missing spall liners?

the earliest acknowledged spall liner i have seen is T-55A, so 8.3, and devs never said it is top tier exclusive, just added them there first

You can report any vehicles missing spall liners.

Now we all got to hope gaijin don’t pull a gaijin and decide to “fix” the game sounds again, ruining all their hard work for another year or two. It wouldn’t be strange if it happened only once but gaijin seem to have a trend of shooting themselves in the foot when it comes to their sounds. I remember the update I finally decided to take off epic thunder as the base sounds were that good just for them to be changed next update to the worst yet.

Hi Gunjob has there been anything new from gaijin regarding the Bug reports on the TES/OES ERA & Backing plate? or should we expect news about these from the same time as the “refinements” are completed?

Nothing like shooting the side of a T90M, putting a round right into his ammo carousel, and it doing nothing.
Only for him to return fire, put one through your mantlet, and detonate yours.

So Challenger 1s Mid Life Improvement upgrade with L30 shows in it’s protection drawing that very specifically the mantlet also has 550KE protection. This is news to me.
