CM Covert Disclosures: What We’re Up To & News

Maybe you can also think about reworking aircraft ammunition.
There’s a ton of things wrong and outdated.

A 7.62mm API has both armor penetration of an AP round with a higher fire chance then other 7.7mm caliber Incendairy or Explosive rounds while dealing more damage to aircraft structures as well, that makes no sense.

And on the other end of the sprecturm there are 20mm and 30mm Incendiary rounds that do obsolutely nothing and are apparently only there so that players have a worse default belt.

There’s a huge bias towards explosive rounds and API with other types just being completely overshadowed.

realShatter fragments deals crazy amounts of damage to air frames and the same is true for just kinetic (AP) rounds in general which can just cut planes appart.

There needs to be a clear seperation of damage types:

  • Blast for structucal damage
  • Kinetic (shell fragments and penetrating rounds)
  • Incendiary effect (adding incendiary filler to stat card and shells)

Honestly you can just scrap your entire damage system and built a new system that bases inflicted damage on the shells stats instead of hardcoding every round.

If I report everything that’s wrong with the performance of all aircraft shell types, it would take me a year and fixing it would take 5.

More of these please! :D

Sad noises…

@magazine2 Wait… “Daily bonuses”… is it going to be capped per day?!
I sincerely hope the devs know what kind of shitstorm that is going to cause if true… but hey WIP, one can hope they see feedback now and have the chance to change before release.

I think there could be some improvements in priority of bugfixes. there are bugs that have persisted for YEARS at this point and it pokes like a sore thumb no matter how minor they are. Same with historical accuracies.

They had some official reasoning on the old forum if i remember correctly.
Development on that was officially discontinued since destructible buildings were eating up processing power and because of gameplay problems I think.
Or something similar to that

You should post this in the steam news aswell
I use the steam client and i had to find this from a reddit post cause im not active on the forums

Please make air rb 10v10 or 8v8 for top tier

Liking the blog, any news on challengers final polish and fix?

I like what i see and i hope that it will fixes some vehicles that have problems with its model. Like Otomatic which have its 2 autoloaders nad 76mm gun breach just made into one massive block that takes 1/4 of the turret space. Plus i wanna know if these models will be applied to helicopters and planes or we will see it for them in later updates. Thank you if you answer me. And with a research point …ehhh it is what it is, i will rather wait and hope that it will work properly

If they can collapse ranks, they can find a way to allow side scrolling of trees too. I bet the lines are gonna get huge now.

They should just combine naval and ground rewards IMO. Or combine the naval and cosmetic events

Progressing power has wildly improved since 7 years ago (moores law is still a good approximation with an increase to 8 x; Just looking at CPU’s, we have now the R7 7800 X3D as the best gaming CPU, which has multiple times the performance of the i7 7700 K, not mentioning the computation monsters no game utulizes like the 7950 X(3D)), as well as optimization (we have cruisers fireing throusands of shells per minute without lags), and gameplay will be just different. Spawncamping is already an issue besides that, it wouldn’t affect anything, besides being more realistic and dynamic and not the 3 lane CS thing.

they can but it wouldnt work well on console’s so they arent doing it. the pc master race has to suffer because of the inferior console plebs

yeah i would love them to expand detailed models into aircraft. More avionics modules, hydraulic system components, detailed and separate weapon components, separate and more detailed hydraulic/mechanical traction control modules - etc.
