Man these patch notes though

Fragments from shells incorrectly ignored modules such as engines and transmissions. This has now been fixed.
Spaced/Applique armour is now taken into consideration for ricochets off the main armour.

They gave like 6 tanks AA machine guns too.
Tested out the new leo and the stabilizer is a massive difference, still not going to be very accurate going full speed but its at least 50% less gun sway
I like how the Shilka has basically zero bloom during sustained fire. So much for that barrel overheating issue, eh?
600 eagles short of the BV-238...
I can't fly for shit, but flying boats....
urghhhhh
First game of realistic and theres 2 flakpanzers and a vulcan.
Thats like $60usd for the giggles to rp that.

The new "aa" machine gun for the leo can only elevate about 30 degrees. gg
Bought the T29 on a whim. This thing is disgusting. Took simultaneous fire from three tanks, and two planes. Most damage I took was to the engine.

And the only odd thing about the BV is leading the guns, I haven't gotten my aim down completely but as soon as you DO hit anything it bursts into fucking flames immediately.
Really digging the LA-5F so far (just got it). Firepower feels adequate and the performance is okay. Only complaint is that it feels a bit slow at times.
Also, you know how they said the BV 'wouldn't be ranked against opponents too strong for it?'
Here's the joke: It's placed exactly where all the obnoxious cannon planes are.
but it can shrug off a few hits because it's so fucking massive.

The new cammo given to all post war german tanks isn't one that you unlock, you have to buy it.

I wonder what dollar amount of shame I'll feel if I buy my way to the new leopards.

Love it when you use a fire extinguisher only to die from "tank burned down" a good 5 seconds after putting it out.
In other news the ammo drum for the leopards "aa" gun and the ammo thats meant to be inside it are not only not attached to the gun model and both just hover there when the gun moves, but the ammo is also outside of the drum.

After having played some more with the new zeroing and maxed zoom sights for the 5th tier tanks, I still feel like their combined efforts cause my shots to fall short constantly (gotta get used to it I suppose) and the issue of not having zoom levels hinders my ability to aim at tanks that are within certain range from me as the gun sights zoom in way too much and I can't unzoom it.
Slowly working my way towards Swingfire and M56 Scorpion, the M56 seems like it could be a fun little thing to play with.
Apparently people have been finding helicopters in the game files for a while now

Probably going to end up being related to some sort of Vietnam era update as ground targets or something for ground strike.
And by ground I mean 15 feet above the ground but otherwise moving in the exact same pattern as tanks.

I have no idea why, but I feel a compulsion to get the FV4202 before I get the Swingfire even though I know I'll probably play it like 5 times and never touch it again.

Made a couple skins for the BV 238. Two Metal slug ones (of course) and two solid color ones.

Since I presume you have access to it, how on earth do you repair that monstrosity? I've never seen anyone use landing gear on it so I presume it has none? (so no landing/taking off of runways?)
So apparently shells started under-performing after Gaijin fixed shrapnel phasing through internal modules, so their solution was to buff [I]only APHE shells[/I] to get them back to where they were...?

[QUOTE=O'Neil;51135639]Tell me if it's any good, even with the lack of APDS.[/QUOTE]
I managed to play 1 game in it last night and it seemed pretty good, even stock - got to the church on Kursk and took out two panthers before my gun got broken, after that I was just sitting there for 5 minutes with Tigers and Panthers bouncing off me doing zilch 'til a single panther got around the side of me and ammoracked me. Felt very similar to early-days Jumbo (except with a decent gun) before people realised how to kill it :v:

I haven't had the opportunity to land one yet, but there is no landing gear. You could theoretically belly land on an airfield if you're careful, but I don't know if you can take off again.

Like APHE even needs a buff. They should focus on making solid core AP not useless so I don't have to snipe every enemy crew member.
And of course there's no mention of the bug with interceptors spawning with perma-overheated guns every time in arcade tanks.

Can't wait. I've always loved playing Japanese tanks since FH1. There's nothing more satisfying than sneaking up on a sherman and killing it with a ha-go.
I heard that the Ha-go's armor is capable of being pierced by AP .30 cal
