Address APC gameplay inconsistencies

Majority of them are destroyed/damaged.

OP even posted one of those.

Plus, it’s easy to tell it’s not an APC because they don’t have wheel marks behind them.

And as I have already said. If you are not sure, just try to mark the vehicle. It takes less than a second and you will immediately find out if it’s APC/Tank/random vehicle/prop

Good point

Its significantly bigger and slightly more armoured. Also I want to see more APCS in the tech tree.

I think the game despretly needs some audio for APCs like rallies do, the amount of times i spawn in the middle of enemy players just because they weren’t aware the APC is right next to them is astonishing… I have sugessted before many times, running engine sound, smoke coming out of the exhaust pipes etc. it would be unique thing it would most likely draw attention, but devs haven’t done anything.

This ties in to my suggestions in my thread “Deploying APCs”

Lol the “actual APC” you listed are not APC. Seems like you didn’t even know what an APC is.

huh? lol

The Sd.Kfz. 251 (Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251 ) half-track was a World War II German armored personnel carrier

It is not in the post? It is also classified as APC, where is the actual APC that is not classified as APC?

So which “actual APC I listed are not APC”?

Well from the wording on your post I guess you think LVTA1 and M13 are APC. But if I am wrong, then list any actual APC that is not classified as APC.

When did I even say that?
Gonna need a quote, chief.

If you think it have nothing to do with APC, why list it here?
Moreover those are the only usable armored vehicle in the post.

And you are just avoiding the problem you can’t even give a single example of actual APC not classified as APC lol.

It’s you who is avoiding my question lol

Quote me saying I think M13 is an APC?

And if you’re still missing the point – it’s confusing for new players why truck 1 is an “APC” despite nit having armor and truck 2 is just a prop.

If you don’t think that is an APC then there is indeed no actual APC that is not classified as APC.

Lol quickly went to other point after discovering this point make no sense.

Don’t know why you got your panties in a bunch, I indeed probably could have worded that sentence better.

But that doesn’t change the point of the thread, which is about vehicles that look like they should have the same role (GAZ AAA, ZiS, Opel Blitz) for some reason all having different uses and one even labeled as “armored pc”.

I think that there should be more driveable vehicles that aren’t just props. It would be cool to drive those German half-tracks in the Ardennes map, the Soviet Army trucks, or the LVTs in the Pacific.

On a personal note, looking back in retrospective I feel that there was a huge missed opportunity of introducing APCs for the first time with the initial release of the Pacific campaign. With the LVT and the Japanese boat tank. Even though I don’t own them, I think those two should be reworked into functioning as APCs. It would improve their usefulness and not be as gimmicky and it wouldn’t occupy their team’s tank slot. They’re quite rare to encounter nowadays, it’s not like it would break balance or anything. Right?

Enlisted is consistently inconsistent.

The devs should absolutely work towards “standardization”.

Yeah, let’s make game dumb because some imaginary newbies can’t bother to learn anything about the game, lmao.

I wish that old Pacific pack LVT would be turned into APC it has no use as a tank even at BR1/2 since it’s cannon is so worthless.

It’s more about just calling things what they are. There’s clearly nothing armored about the tech tree armored personnel carriers.

If anything, the game and or the devs appear dumb when things are blatantly misidentified.
