British tank bug

There is an issue with the british tanks on the Battle For Qinling map. When the tanks are at a complete stop they will shake making it hard to aim at enemies. These tanks will also slide UP hill when around the coal mine, I have not noticed this issue on any other hills, or with the MEC tanks.

hmm this has happened to me too but it only happens when i'm on a bad peice of land so like ontop of a sharp ledge, this happens for me in all tanks given that the right conditions are met

You can do one better than that...

A guy stops the tank in an awkward location, north of VCP on Al Basrah, where it vibrates like mad. The driver then bails out and gets crushed to death against a sandbag wall, then the gunner is too stubborn or AFK to mount the driver seat to move the bouncing tank back so anyone can get anywhere near this death-trap. Welcome to my Project Reality squad :(

this is all down to where you stop the tank, if your driver does a good job you will be able to fire and have a stable firing platform.

As in the real work your driver wouldn`t dismount during action and would drive in a tactical manner NOT sitting on inclines to fire.

Basic armoured tactics

i agree its up to where you stop the tank not the tanks fault for falling with gravity

Er, the tanks will move at full speed uncrewed in certain situations, its a bug not just gravity. I can remember chasing after one in a warrior so my gunner could grab it before it flew in to the river, had to nudge it into a tree using my warrior to stop it so my gunner could jump in.

It's not a bug; it's realistic.

Y'see, unlike other armies, we Brits don't stop at death; we come back and operate our vehicles from beyond the grave. It's a dead squaddie that's controlling that tank really.

Taking the "advance at all costs" order a little too literally :)
