You dont have to purchase event rewards…idk why anyone would
Yeap, maybe.
As per usual i can’t just buy what i’m interested in, it has to be bundled with some other crap i’ll never use (in case i ever decide to spend money here again). Since the seperate bundles are shown in the store page why can’t i just buy 1 squad?
Will it be possible to ride into a capture zone and spawn new squads inside there as well?
It would have the possibility to play ever map even if it were BR1, since you can bring equipment and vehicles from lower tiers. Bit of a moot point now, though, since we know that tech tree versions without MGs are coming with the next big update
so, if i get it right, paid premium squad users get the ARMORED and ARMED mobile rally/personnel carriers, while F2P tech trees get the UNARMORED and UNARMED mobile rally/personnel carriers?
not imbalanced, no P2W, nothing to see here, move along!!!

I never got remimburst for gold. Gold to unlock 10 unites. Also, because i brought gold tanks for certian campains those tanks are usless now unless I downgrade.
Think about this why on earth would anyone but tier 3 gold tank now? Whats the point?
The new tracks are usless. You van kill whole squad now lol. Maps aint even big enough for them. Dont waste money
That is no longer an APC, that is just a half track SPAA.
Both will get destroyed in a single rocket/tank shell/bomb or even mortar/arty/demo pack/tnt. So who cares if they have 15mm of steel or 1mm. Even AT rifle going to pen and ignite fuel tank.
Lol you forgot about small arms fire. You can easily destroy the truck by shooting at it with your gun. You can’t do the same with half track since it is armored.
And who’s going to waste two or three mags with their guns just to destroy a single truck when you can use all tools i have mentioned before? Nobody. Hmg going to destroy those trucks with zero effort no matter if they are lightly armored or not. Stop acting like 14mm of steel is as thick as Tiger 2 armor because it’s not. You should play a bit with the AA trucks and see how quickly you can get obliterated by AT rifles, rockets and tank shells across the map.
Here is BR-7 with basic shell against your overpowered armor LOL

Lol you never use those truck on the map? You only need few shot and the engine will be on fire.
Lol I only talk about small arms fire, but you keep diverge the topic to bigger weapon. So you have nothing to say?

Everyone else was proving that there were Japanese HTs while you on the other hand were speaking jibberish.
I must admit you were right i rarely use them since they are so rare and mostly spawn at the beginning of some matches. I swear i remembered them able to withstand multiple magazines while when i tested them in editor against m2 carbine they started burning after just 5 shots.
So yeah they will be completely useless especially against tanks with lmgs and hmgs just 2-3 shots and they are as good as dead. Hp of those trucks need to be increased by 10x. However i still think that even premium half tracks going to get destroyed extremely easily by tanks and bombs.
I would rather say that casual F2P players should be also able to unlock an armored halftrack rather than just a truck with wood or cloth cabin. The main difference is the survivability of the soldiers inside while the vehicle is on the go. When I see a truck with soldiers, in many cases I am able to eliminate the whole squad inside before it stops, but the vehicle itself survives - the cabin is above the level of the engine and the important structures anyway. I am not tempted to unlock a totally unarmored truck, it would only drag attention and concentrate my soldiers in a tight uncovered group that’s lifted a meter above the ground, so that it is super easy to shoot at them.
I mean, I believe the trucks were used mostly to deliver troops to the frontlines, and not to ride around with them directly on a battlefield - only armored personnel carriers are a reasonable vehicle to roll onto a battlefield (in Enlisted - anywhere out of the grey zone, and even the grey zone is not very safe).
I’ve mostly been playing Tier 3 despite having just about everything unlocked for every faction. There’s pretty valid reasons to make BR 2, 3, and 5 lineups for each faction you play and it mostly comes down to increasing variety and bolt actions are fun.
For both vehicles soldiers will be sitting with their upper bodies exposed to the enemy fire and hmg nest will destroy both of them with no issue. Biggest problem is engine survivability that is non existent for the trucks and i will be hunting both with my Puma or BT-7A
Thank you Devs, love to have more vehicles in game !
Questions of utility:
-
IF I am in the driver position and I’m maneouvering the vehicle, will there be a soldier who automatically man’s the MG ? You have developed this AI rule for soldiers occupying MMGs and other emplacement weapons, so does this apply to the APC weapon as well ?
-
IF the answer to the above is yes, will they autonomously fire the MG, as per the current MG soldier who does shoot (sometimes) at random things, but more insistently if I mark a target ?
-
Will there be states of cover for the passengers ? ie If I want to avoid casualties I can tell the passengers to sit and keep their head down (other than the MG gunner) OR can I ask them to remain vigilant in all round defence across the vehicle and shoot anyone that comes near the vehicle, noting that in the second instance my troops are equally vulnerable to well aimed fire to their partially exposed silhouettes ?
