APC sliding issue

Hey,
I was simply wondering if you are adressing the APCs sliding issue in any upcoming patch? When on the slightest un-even ground, these things won't stand still. It is unrealistic. And seing MBTs don't behave this way, i hope there is some way of fixing it.
(for the record, ordinary jeeps slide way too easy as well)

This problem is of lesser art with most APCs, as most proficient APC-drivers do a ultra-quick seat-switch when making a stop with their nose pointed down-wards. This does however not help with the Warrior, if anything it only makes it slide faster. The Warrior(/possibly Scimitar?) is the most urgent issue at hand.
The Trojka is not so bad, it seems it behaves more like a tank.

It might not even be do-able. This is why i ask.
Any comment from a developer would be appreciated.

*** disclaimer: I thought i'd read a post regarding this subject in the past, but could not relocate it. I might've been wrong, but if not please post me a link. ***

Hehe, thanks. I had not seen that.
I was referring to a thread adressing this issue though, not a possible way-around solution.

Yeah, most threads that don't get direct feedback from devs become discussions about weather the issue is resolvable. It would be nice if say, Dunehunter or Mr D could get some intell from a dev or two.
The list for already suggested suggestions isnt complete and we don't know which issues on it are going to be addressed.

The whole physics setup would need to be changed, so I'm thinking the answer is no. There's been a lot of people talking big about how it should be changed, but no follow through, and it's not guaranteed to fix it. So I sincerely doubt that it will ever be addressed.

I'd guessed maybe there's HC issues but there's not always conformation for these types of problems. It just leaves you thinking, if only.....
