Work-In-Progress: Regenerative Steering — Should We Add It? Try It & Leave Your Feedback!

You’ll have to clarify it with Fireball, apparently it’s based off the Challenger 1 which shares similarities with the Challenger 2 power pack.

Unfortunately the ratio isn’t specified anywhere in challengers manual, not that I have seen anyway.

But we have radius values that can be used. To work out what it should be. Given the PP and transmission have a lot of similarities, I expect it hasn’t changed much if at all.

Well you know how willing Gaijin is to accept bug reports regarding NATO tanks… I fear “Sharing similarities” is not going to be enough, you need to write a whole book about it lol

If regen steering never makes it to the game then people won’t even get a chance to realise how good it is

The majority of people who would vote in a hypothetical poll for this would have never downloaded the dev server to actually test it either, hence why im very much against having a poll for this like we did with the APHE changes

It is as “toggleable” as reversible transmission on T-90M… It just isnt. Haven’t you read the devblog itself that states that most MBTs irl can’t clutch steer?

I am genuinely curious at this point. Have you read the post you commented under?

Your comment explained it perfectly how it should work, with having to change it before a match and stuff.

And yeah I’m also scared about having a poll, a lot of people wouldn’t even have any idea what the vote is about. Luckily I haven’t seen any big content creators telling people to vote No, the ones I saw all liked regen steering.

I don’t get why APHE change wasn’t just added as a new feature in the new update. Devs can easily tweak naval damage models, missile handling in air battles, atgm physics in tank battles, but not aphe? What is so special about APHE that it needs a vote to be tuned to more realistic and interesting parameters than a simplified sphere?

The community is very scared of change, so ideally they would need to be shown properly that this is in fact a good idea.

Gaijin did a pretty awful job of that, which is why I’m concerned.

They should have just rolled it out as a feature into the live server, given it a month or so and then if people strongly disliked it they could revert it or change it

The hysteria kicked up by content creators over the APHE changes meant a lot of people never even tested it, they just assumed it would ruin the game and voted no

I’ve done a much better job marketing the differences for Gaijin (using more accurate values) in the last few days than Gaijin themselves lol. It does almost feel like they do not want to put in the effort and trouble to change every vehicle in game.

If you have the time and energy to do so maybe you could test a WW2 tank as well? I’ve seen many people saying that they are more interested in those than modern MBTs.

Maybe a Tiger II or something, I know not many had double differential in that period

I’ll get around it when I have the time but unfortunately I don’t think dev server will stay open long enough for me to test it. Time zone and all that (it’s 12:44am for me now).

Dev closes tomorrow and I got classes for the entire day.

No worries, you already did more than enough!

Why. They updated atgm physics, they update aa-missiles rn on the dev, what is so special about aphe that it can’t be updated to more realistic approach?

magical one shot round.

I just don’t get it, its another part of updates they are doing for years, where they implement new and new cool and more accurate features instead of placeholders.

I thought HE rounds are magical one-shot rounds, huh.

I posted a few videos on Reddit, even the Scimitar comparison, and people liked them. It’s not much but it’s honest work haha Their devblog was absolutely horrible…

Still my proudest and favourite comparison

This video honestly deserves to be spread around even more.

I could post it on Reddit, hopefully they are not tired of me yet lol Do you have anything I should add to the post? If I remember this was a lower hp engine?

Afaik the dev server is open until the 12th now
