Patch Details
The main concerns the development team has with the Leopard 1A6 is its mobility and ability to fire accurately on the move for lethal damage. We still want the Leopard 1A6 to be a scary foe for our lighter vehicles, during the initial alpha 2 stage far too many of our vehicles were at risk of being killed with an ammo rack hit.
The vehicle has had a number of changes to its mobility, its acceleration in higher gears is reduced as is the turn rate of the vehicle hull.
The basic gun accuracy normalization rate has been decreased heavily, players will need to wait for around 2 seconds after moving for maximum accuracy. The maximum aiming reticule bloom has been increased to further reduce accuracy on the move. The probability of shells landing in the periphery of the reticule has also been increased to emphasize this characteristic.
Basic shell damage and progression modules which allow for undesirable stacking behavior has been reworked to reduce the maximum potential damage of each shell.
We hear your feedback and will be watching emerging player behaviors following these changes and make further adjustments as necessary.
