Reload speed is fine, but when are they gonna fix this crap? I wasted 4 TOW-2Bs today and still couldn’t damage a Soviet tank.

every single tank in the entire game does that - it is, unfortunately, a game feature

ammo detonations are completely random

Fuck no, at least the 2A7s and Strv 122s can stay at 6 seconds.

Should just be 6.5 seconds

6 seconds for T-80 6.5 for everything else

That’s balance too if next major update ground forces BR go up to 12.7, NATO gonna recieve new ammunition in my guess.
0.1s time reduction is useless to toptier, 6.66s reload time is still change nothing because others can fire second shot, but 6.5s reload is much fair, the slowest autoloader reload time of toptier should same with expert crew of leopard2. The environment of top BR is fast paced IMO.

  1. We dont know if its true, 2) why the flip is t80ud t72a, T64a 9.3 but not 9.7? and why is the T72B 10.3?

Going from tank reloads to complaining about the buk in a paragraph notice

Well, the T-72 should’ve been moved to 9.7 even without the reload boost.

Why did the missile Shilka lock onto and shoot down my Ayit when its engine was off and the temperature was only 78 degrees at the moment of impact?

The reload time can only be achieved if the ammunition is already in the perfect position — if the carousel has to rotate first, the reload time is much longer.

  • Best-case / technical reload cycle:** around 6–7.1 seconds per shot (when the selected round is already in the “perfect position” in the autoloader carousel).
  • Worst-case (carousel must rotate):** up to ~19.5 seconds if the carousel has to make a nearly full rotation before loading.

If stuff like the Leopard 1A5, OF-40 MTCA, AMX-30 Super, Gal Batesh and Olifant Mk.2 etc. can be 9.3 than the T-72s are also fine at 9.3.

T-72A is barely as good as NATO 9.3s as is.
Only way it moves to 9.7 is if 3.0 - 9.3 all moves up by 0.3.

Igla, Stinger, etc use sensitive seekers. Welcome to manpads.

But their irl performance is literally just firework box

Out of all the better vehicles you could pick to move up, you have to choose the very mid t-64a?

Edited: I saw your stat now I understand why

Holy crap is the BUK physically penetrating that F-16?

Also, I’ve bug reported the MZ loader again, a little more properly this time, hopefully they will accept the irrefutable evidence that it loads in 6.0 secs.
