Nice.

Third best round as stock, nice

how close…

Why? Weren’t the telar units also targetable since they have a radar?

Or is the code for the AI just not able to use the radar properly where players can just pick it up for their harms to acquire properly.

Still i rather expect a SAMPT buff than this itself(as a ru main it would be nice to actually saturate a sam site rather than wipe it in one minute lol)

The M1A2 SEP (TUSK) with the same bug (just with the TUSK modification) is still not fixed btw.

Crew gets hungry after tusk installation and eats all a3 rounds

This bug not only affected the M1A2 SEP V2, a similar issue exists for the M1A2 SEP V1, M829A3 is equipped yet M829A2 is being fired. Issue is still alive as of 2.57.0.25

This is just a quick band-aid solution i hope… None of the bigger complains are being addressed though.

From all the issues with nuclear escalation, only this was addressed? lmao

it’s a start be happy the big one was the first one to be worked on

I want to bring some positivity to these lands of frequent and heavy criticism! So;

As important as it is to offer constructive criticism when it’s warranted, I believe it’s just as important to acknowledge the positives. These changes have made the stock grinds/spading of Top Tier tanks SIGNIFICANTLY less frustrating.

The big one is that AA units are always aware of your position and only enable radar after launching on you or your munitions

Yeah except the Strv 122s likely shouldn’t have gotten DM53, they should go back to DM23 and 33 respectively with the 122A and Plss using 33 and the B+ using the 23 like it was before
