I spawn tbe mk3 next seeing as its top speed got buffed
And goes 49kmph
wow a whole 1km faster with a worst engine.
Ill never ace the mk3 unless it gets something unique or goes down in br or something
it gets a dozer blade. Plus it get some pretty cool skins.
ever since last update the dozers add weight now, something the cheiftan didnt need.
The skins i will say, whenver i free ace a vehicle i either make a unique camo for it with decals or buy one off the market, the mk5 has 2, theyre OK but the mk3 has more.
Now im doint the olifant, i miss the turret armor lol, sure it can get penned, but youre down to 2 crew and aphe doesnt really do anything to you while hull down. The olifant thought, your turret gets nuked almost every time
The Mk3 is now effectviely the same as the Mk5, accelerates slightly slower but goes faster?
whats the big gripe? xD
They’re both missing armour, MK5 LRF, and a proepr L15A5 round.
as it sits now they’re functionally identical
Its the M4A3 76 and M4A2 76 argument. One accelerates better but is slower, one accelerates worse but is faster. If they were the same br id prefer acceleration.
The big gripe lol is its all ive been playing for the last few days and im not touching the mk3, while sure it wasnt a bad experience and i did decent in my games, i much prefer mobility in a tank. Ive also free aced the roikat mk1, i have worst stats in it but i had a lot more fun acing it.
Wouldnt mind better armor and better round, the lrf doesnt bother me too much but maybe thats because i over played it so
which is defo wrong, should be 42kph
Noice KD bro, only thing that surprises me is that you perform better in the Mk5 than the Mk10 lol
Thanks, i dont think ive played it in a very very long time
how’s it wrong? was proved that the gear ratios make it go 49kmph, the weaker engine didn’t limit its top speed, the weaker engine limited how fast it can get there.
Errr, I’d love to see the evidence for this please, I asked Smin and he couldn’t find a report for the change.
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/kBDyXv4H7817
was in this report at one stage.
This is the report that got their engines changed as well.
that was one google search.
Lie better next time
EDIT: just to let you know, the chieftain mk3 had a differnet transmission as well before it was patched to the TN12 im just trynna find what it was.
oh you meant this one when you pinged me on discord.
Yesur
I’ve been out the loop largely on the forum for a bit as you know
So… it was removed from the report… how am I meant to know this removed information? Osmosis?
then dont chime in if you dont actually know mate.
to be fair to fireball, hes usually right about stuff
Except the information… to the best of my knowledge, would be wrong, and is probably why it was removed. We know the top speed early on was 42… not 49…
Hence why I asked to see any evidence for 49kph because for sure I haven’t seen any…
the gearboxes were the same, i believe it was purely just a limitation of the abysmal early marks of leyland L60
