My humble bet is that it’s a bug and it’ll be fixed. it makes no sense to do a blog to announce an improvement only to be apply such buff for weaker rounds.
Also, notice how the T-80BVM is the only T-80 w/3BM60, yet the round shares the same reload buff time as the T-72/T-90 series, reinforcing the bug theory.
The issues is that war thunder doesnt model the ammo placement, so the next round that you load can literally be anything, and for a 10+seconds you would need to pass over quite a few rounds
It’s was confirmed on ru forum that it’s not a bug. Probably due increased length of 3bm60. T-72/90 series have different autoloader.
Interesting, to say the least.
Though I’ll keep some skepticism stored. Nothing personal, by the way. It’s just that I have an idea of how Gaijin ends up working, and sometimes they tweak numbers even after officials say anything.
if true, actually useless patch that changes nothing at all
I wouldn’t call it useless, the lower brs did get a sustancial buff, specially the t64s, and t80b that got over a second reduced.
Perhaps not, but it wouldn’t be hard to implement a longer reload when switching to a new shell type and even the Soviet manual they linked said that every two cassettes that are passed adds ~1s to the reload time
If only you cared as much about revision of Rate of Fire of Naval cannons…
Look for once at Littorio class.
the only tanks that actually got buffed from this is t64a, t80U and whole lot of premium\squadron\event t80us (1 t80u in TT and 5 paid)
t80B is 7sec so not a second but 0.1
literally worthless update if you are not giga delux premium gamer that plays 11.7
T64B still has 7.0s reloading time (0.1s improvement). Is it a mistake given you’ve annouced it to be 6.0s? Please kindly fix.
Yeah, sounds like anyone cares about 0.1s (not 1s) reload buff for t64b and t80b…
Personally i fine by giving them this as a temporary measure, but i would rather give this to every vehicle, as you could pick and choose where to place the ammo
Probably a bug as they announced that those where supposed to get the 6s reload aswell, was already reported and accepted.
I mean UD buff is good but it’s definitely gonna be raised in br so it’s going from great 10.3 lineup vehicle to a not so great 10.7 lineup because all good vehicles are 10.0-10.3
so you gonna be left with 2 BMPTs (one premium), t80b (not a good vehicle in general), tunguska and object 292
This whole thing looks like a premium giga delux gamers only buff to me
It is updated
It could be an xbox client issue
Well no. In ground - players are well distributed. Top-tier is not the top dog. So these changes will impact those who regularly play tanks like the T-64A.
Update the reload sound on those with 6 second reload because the sound effect can’t keep up now.
The only tank for now
How can I explain this;
Ah, yes.
All of this costs MONEY. I don’t know how much you make; I quite frankly also don’t care- but the fact of the matter is their are plenty of people who can’t afford to buy premiums or don’t want to playing this game. All of this costs money. 1000 GE is 6.6 USD: not a small amount. A talisman on a top tier vehicle is several thousand GE, which makes that 15-20 dollars in transactions for one vehicle alone. For every Abrams, say all the 120mm ones, that is around 75-100 dollars that you’d need to spend. On one tech tree alone.
You are lucky to be able to purchase a pixel tank. Not everyone is. At the end of the day if you have to spend a lot of time or money to get something, it’s not an easily available bonus.
So no, the 5 second reload isn’t a universal thing, and no, it’s not an easy to obtain item that everyone has. Full stop. 6 seconds on an autoloader you get from stock on. No work, no grind, no RP or SL. It’s all just yours.
