How did Gaijin manage to make the Fastest Tracked vehicle in the world, the slowest in game?

This was a slightly above average tetrarch battle so expect hell to break out

17 kills is mental

my highest frag match ever. all three of my highest frag games are tetrach

Could be CVRT lol

@Smin1080p_WT
Why does the tank with highest power to weight ratio go the slowest?

31

its the gear ratios cucking it mostly. Ive just bought a brochure for the scimitar which has gear ratios inside it. once I receive it and have more readable photos taken of it ill share it with you and do some reports

not easy to read with those low pixel counts tbh

34

No its not but the datamine values are almost identical lol so where are still nowhere.

I wonder if I replicated it in sprocket if they would fix it lol.

would probably

36

Really well I could do that in like 10 mins and it would calculate speed and all.

sprocket isnt a source however if we can calculate max speeds based on engine rpm, gear and final drive ratios

38

Yes would be fun to see

Terrible vid comparation because you keep moving the Scimitar around.

40

Not nearly that much, the scimitar is stupidly twitchy and next to impossible to keep straight due to how gaijin made it.

41

Mines the Daimler mkII - Both it and the tetrach can really surprise other players, just a shame we’re probably never going to get the “little John” adapters.

I’ve raised a bug report with it before including manually setting the gears and 1st through to 4th are pretty much non-existant - you might as well jump straight onto 4th. As for 5-6 they’re not great but 7th is horrifically long.

Actually there’s a point - does anyone know what sort of steering system is used on the FV107? Because it almost behaves like it’s a braked clutch type considering how much speed it dumps on the slightest tap of steering input.

43

It uses a regenerative type steering.

In game it’s clutch braking as gaijin has never modeled regenerative steering.

And gears 1-3 technically are crawler gears on the real tank but the over all gear ratio is much longer irl as there are claims of them doing 60 plus meaning the engines red-line would be like 5000 rpm at whatever the top speed was.

I’m still wondering when they’ll add the TAM series to Israel since they partially made them.
