hehe I thought I was crazy but their is actually quite a few things changed with gvs it seems.
1. The tank shell seems to drop more then on previous version (seriously throwing off my aim).
2. The panzer's rate of fire seems to be increased. I thought I was the only one who noticed but another player commented on it in the MA today.

I just tested the Firefly in version 2.14 as well as version 2.13, offline using .target.

At both 1000 & 2000 yards, there was no difference in shell drop

Well, I always thought it was really odd that I could easily hit targets at 4 or 5 K yds... With a Panzer, LOL!!!
Sometimes farther!!! A few ranging shots to dial my zoom and reticle, and there ya go!  Thats not right!!!
Its fun to tap on somebody from so far away that they cant even see you, but its not right, LOL!!!
I mean, this IS WWII we are playin right?

Does the offline version change as far as that crap goes? Or do we just get new vehicles and HUGE changes to the gameplay when they come out with one?

OK then, just wondering. Humans are prone to some pretty stupid mistakes and forgetfulness sometimes.

Test it yourself. I prefer a methodological approach.

Hey guys, did the brits come up with a good tank to use in the late war? It seems like it was mostly shermans and vc's on the Western front. I know that the VC is technicly british...right? but did they come up with a design of their own?

i just tested, it does seem to be dropping out more than it use too.
i dont know if its the terrain messing with me or the GV has had its manhood taken.
but it does seem to be lacking.
and im a range shooter, it was very hard to find my range in it
