Tank Reload Times Changed
« on: April 28, 2011, 08:37:32 PM »
The change log shows that the reload time for the M4/76mm was increased.  However, I appears most of the tanks felt some sort of reload increase. 

Below is a list of new approximate reload times (recorded manually):

Panzer IV: 6 sec (was 4.3)
Panther: 6 sec (unchanged)
Tiger: 7 sec (up from 6.2)

T34/76: 9.1 sec (up from 8.2)
T34/85: 7.6 sec (up from 6.8)

Firefly: 8.2 sec (up from 7)
M4/76: 5.5 sec (up from 3.6 and logged)
M4/75: 4.2 sec (up from 3.6)
M8: 2.5 sec (unchanged, I think)
LVT-4: 4.2 sec (up from 3.6)
M3/75: 4.2 (new, but should be same as M4/75 and LVT, imo)

Times are approximate, they were timed manually and averaged.  I can only do so much much w a timer on a cell phone.   :D

tested offline M3/75 and M4/75 both 4s dead, M4/76 5.4s.

time 11 shots = 10 reloads, then div 10 ...

Yeap, I've done that method as well.  I timed them individually, lapped, and time/10 shots.   :)

never mind.... I didn't have the same control for measuring the times.  My bad.   :bhead
