Tank Gunner Bug - Not the usual one, really odd!

[ReadySalted]

Hi there, whenever I'm gunner (as in Main Gun, not Machine Gunner)on any kind of armoured vehicle, for about the first minute that I get into the seat I can't move the turret or fire.
I've read the multiple threads about not being able to fire, and the ammuntion counter displaying as zero, however my bug seems to be a bit different.
I get into the seat, and I can't moved the turret, or fire for about 30 seconds. However the ammunition counter shows that I do have ammo. Then after about a minute of so, it's fine, and the turret moves and I fire.
It's really quite odd, and very anoying since I usually go for armour especially when playing as British, and if I'm a gunner I'm useless for the first minute, and if I go on my own in armour, then when I get eyes on the enemy, and want to open fire on them, I have to jump into the gunner seat, and be a sitting duck for a minute until I can open up. It's really frustrating.
Has anyone else had this problem, and does anyone know a fix?
Cheers, Dan.

Is this a joke?!

Ehh that's not a bug... the delay when getting in APC/Tank gun has been there for a long time and for a good reason---

.50s have it too, but shorter...

Epic thread. Read the manual please! It will tell you all the basic gameplay changes from vanilla such as armoured vehicle turret delays.

[ReadySalted]

Oh right, fair enough then. I'm a bellend!
Sorry, should have consulted the manual first. It seemed odd though, and didn't make sense because as ironic as it is, my job in real life is gunner/operator on a CVRT Scimitar! And I've never come across a delay like this. Anyways, apologies again.

And I've never come across a delay like this.

Well, I don't think you can jump between the seats in 0.01 seconds either


That's the reason why the delay was introduced.

Oh right, I see now, okey doke.

Do you like Walkers Ready Salted?

...is that really the best you can come up with?

[Farks]

Comon, don't be so mean to him.

ReadySalted: You will realize how much more fun/realistic it is if you operate armor with somebody else once you get into it.

The fun ends here guys, nice job.

ReadySalted Glad you understand and I hope you can enjoy this as a feature instead of a limitation
