Mobility and the reverse bug myth.

[ww2steel]

I am reposting this from another of my recent threads because the myth that you cannot get stuck in Reverse seems to still be fairly common.

(Pasted with some removed from the other thread)

HUGE CORRECTION FROM SOMEONE ELSES PREVIOUS THREAD. I have said this before, and believe me, I've done lots of tests- REVERSING ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT PREVENT BOGGING/ IMMOBILIZING.

(Jpz I data on Deep Mud, Scattered Trees)

Orders: MPH: Avg, dist, between Imm:

Fast 3.3 9184m

Move 2.9 16282m

Hunt 2.9 16021m

Reverse 2.7 7190m

Obviously, the higher the distance between immobilizations, combined with higher speed = good off road. CLEARLY REVERSE SUCKS WORSE THAN ANY OTHER FORM. ALso, interestingly, in some faster terrains, Hunt can actually be FASTER than Move.

This has been tested on multiple armored vehicles.

Hope this helps,

Mike
