Why on Earth is the Scimitars rate of fire beyond slow now? It is terrible. The vehicle is completely useless now. I have no idea how the thing reacts in real life, but even if it shoots that slow, the rate of fire needs to be raised in game. It fires one round about every second. Please change this back.

Because it really is that slow. So is the Warrior. It is fed with manually loaded 3 round strips and only holds 2 of those strips in the magazine.

Also, I'd suggest changing your thread title to Scimitar, since that's what you're complaining about, and it isn't an APC.

FV107 Scimitar
Main armament: 30 mm L21 RARDEN cannon. (Fires at up to 90 rounds per minute)

1,5 rounds per second.

It may be like that in real life but IMO for the sake of balance in game, the rate of fire should be slighty higher.

No, for the sake of balance in game, the UK Forces should get Javelin to make up for their lack of firepower in other assets.

Definently more realistic.

I am happy with it. But it blows when going face to face w/ enemy tanks.

Since when are APCs supposed to take on tanks with 30mm cannons?

Lol, this post. +1


Scimmy is still lethal as hellz against INF/light vehicles, which it is designed for (at least in PR).

Thanks guys for answering the OPs question.
As said, the fire rates are realistic now, that is why they were nerfed.

Well to be truly realistic, they actually wouldn't be able to fire off 90 rounds in a min due to their ammo feeding system.
