Well, i've never lost a tread in a vehicle, thats was what Ripsnort was saying in earlier post about .50cals. I don't like using the "playability modified" aircraft (bombers)or any vehicle, thats the reason i've never ever had a 30-40-50 kill streak. Lets face it a good 80% of the posts by anyone thats played AH for more than 6 months concern the rediculous idea of HTC to modify some units for playability reasons, thats the most idiot thing to do in a game thats been advertised as 'advanced modeling...' and touted as the most realistic sim in the world, those statements come very close to false advertising as far as i'm concerned and judging from the hundreds if not thousands of posts concerning these same issues I have there is no doubt about my views.
