Well for the first time of my life i heard the sound of the scimitar' engine and its brilliant.
Its fcking loud and awesome.
Conratz on adding this fantastic vehicle.

When stationary though the engine goes on and cuts out again and again, sounds a bit annoying

its looking great too nice work.

Its a hybrid, PR is conserving the environment!

now if only they get rid of the daft looking lasergun tracer on top it would be perfect.

Eh, to be totally honest, the fact that this thing has weak armour and a really poor gun mounted on it means that this is probably my least favorite vehicle in the game.

Oddly, it can drive under water, too.

Why is the refire rate like 1 every 3 seconds?

It reminds me of a rice burner, all show no go. Just yesterday i watched as fuzzhead lay helpless in the bottom of storage bunker on Mestia as the thing didn't have enough torque to climb out of bottom level, mind you its only a 30 Degree slope.

how come, for me it sounded like if it had a twin turbo V12 engine.

Too bad the gun does not make a "pew pew" sound when it shoots the laser though.

It uses the same gun as the Warrior but uses a different Tracer.
It is also slower that the warrior.

Slower, and weaker. It's only upsides is simi-amphibiousness, and it's narrow. Can fit places.

Sadly thats how it is in real life. So the british in this game have like a OMGWTFBBQ!!11!!1 disadvantage against other APCs.

Its good, like all vehicles when used properly.

Great lil bulletproof infantry support vehicle. move one of these behind your squad and youve always got someone to give you a hand if you're in trouble

Glad you liked the sounds, i think they used the ones i recorded from the real-one! It will be even better when the scimitar is fast enough. Personally i'm a massive fan of the vehicle in PR.

The RARDEN cannon on both the Warrior and the Scimitar fires at 60 RPM in game (that's one round a second folks!) Which is far, far slower than any other APC or IFV in game. In real life it can fire up to 90 RPM but that isn't exactly a huge improvement, although to be fair it fires a 30mm high penetration shell when most other APCs fire 20 or 25mm chain guns.
