Post 4.603 update question

[Angry_Kitten]

1.  in the latest update, 4.703, someone made mention that there were WORLD WAR 1 ground vehicles in the game.  

 

Are they usable by the player, or are they just something for us to dive bomb?  Id really like to cruise in WW1 tank action..  

 

2. What has actually been impacted as far as roll rate of german aircraft since 4.603?

[BlitzPig_EL]

The WW1 objects are not player controlled.

Yes, no player control. Can only be seen on the FC maps.

Nothing has changed.

Nothing has changed.

One of the updates mentioned something about altering german fighter roll rates, and dispersion circles, and possibly something about reducing ammo ability down range

[Denum]

Dive angles got tweaked on a few dive bombers but no Axis planes had any FM changed that I recall.

 

They tweaked the Typhoon 4.603. 

 

Ammo changes were just to Allied. 

 

Gave them historical dispersion, velocity and penetration values.  

 

The only Axis ammo that was changed was the anti air 20mm. Think it increases the velocity.

i swore one of the announcements in my email mentioned reducing 109 or 190 roll rates, changing the dispersion pattern, and perhaps something about german ammo. 

 

Thats the problem, im getting constant emails to buy the game, but very little about the game

[Denum]

Are you sure it wasn't for Cliffs?

Anything and everything you need to know about what was included in any given update is there on the Announcements page, specifically the Game Updates topic.

52. The overestimated combat survivability of guns, guidance mechanisms, electrical systems and radio stations has been reduced on all tanks, both detailed and simple. Tank guns can be disabled by an AP round hit of a similar caliber or multiple hits of .50 and larger caliber AP bullets;

 

 

Too bad that cant be included for straffing AA or even AA batteris

Actually, in the mission editor you can place any object on any map, regardless of if it's from WW1 or WW2.

Some maps are not very comfy to 'drive' around on like ARRAS, quite bumpy.

If you have FC1 and TC you can enjoy the explosions, but better wear a helmet inside your tank:

You'll need to quote what you're talking about for us to try and help. Nothing has changed generally that I'm aware of.

The official advertisement is that they weakened the 20mm ammo for german AA guns.. 

 

But the thingy is, i have seen it written here that the ammo shares the same "data file" in regards to what it can do... so how are they keeping that ground vehicle 20mm seperate from the air plane ammo

You'll forgive me but I've never seen an official advertisement that says that. Where is this being said?

Update 4.603

38. Corrected ballistics and penetration ability of German 20mm rounds used in anti-aircraft guns

[Denum]

They are separate. 

[Eisenfaustus]

Even the 20mm of MGFF is different from those in MG151/20…

Alright, that is rather different than "reducing 109 or 190 roll rates, changing the dispersion pattern" that you stated above.

 

The only thing this is in reference to is the rounds used on the Flak 38. Not the MG151/20 or the MG-FF/M and nothing to do with roll rates.
