Re: Unlisted changes in 1.4

Both the tank machine gun and APC main gun now have deviation. Whereas both would nomally fire dead on round after round on they now have a slight spread to them. This deviation cannot be controlled by bursting. Doesn't really effect the guns effectiveness all that much either but it does take down the lethality a crack shot had with them previously and ups the effectiveness a newbie has with it. The pro no longer gets 100% accurate fire where he aims it (so less raw DPS on a target) and a n00b can now shoot in your general direction, aim poorly and still kill you with a random bullet spray that deviation provides. A silly and useless change without a doubt and is yet more dumbing down of the game to make it appeal to casual (crappy) gamers.

They also slowed the flag capture speed by what I'd estimate to be around 25%.

What is with them doing this crap, the apc is already pointless to even bother aiming with... This games been dumbed down so hard for everything except infantry which keeps getting their nuts dealt fatal blows.

? APC cannon is a sniper rifle it's super powerful and apc's are a match for tanks if they can flank them + significant splash dammage. Adding some bullet variation doesnt dum down anything it means that you can nail someone a mile away with 1 shot, giving the cannnon kick would have been a better idea but tha's not a option within the engine.
