Update 1.24.1: Common Test 2 Is Here!

Commanders!

The second Common Test of Update 1.24.1 is now available.

We made several adjustments to stats of some vehicles to be affected by the coming rebalance. The analysis of data and feedback from the previous tests shows that some of the proposed stat increases for the Foch B and its Tier IX and VIII predecessors should be toned down. For the Minotauro, the opposite is needed.

  • X AMX 50 Foch B  ,  IX AMX 50 Foch  ,  VIII AMX AC mle. 48  :
    • Top reverse speed increased by 2 km/h (instead of by 4 km/h) compared to the main server; (for the Foch B only) specific power increased by 2.2 hp (instead of 4.2 hp) compared to the main server.
    • Aiming time and dispersion after firing are now the same as on the main server (no longer improved).
  • X Controcarro 3 Minotauro  : The velocity of HEAT rounds is now the same as on the main server (no longer decreased).

The rest of the stats will stay the same as they were during the first Common Test of Update 1.24.1.

Join the Common Test 2 to try out all those vehicles (and also the X Super Conqueror  and the X Pz.Kpfw. VII  ) and experiment with various equipment setups!
