Tanks firing animation


Recommended Posts

I notive in the video AAR`s that tanks rock back and forth when they fire their main gun. In all contempory footage the tank does not "shake" at all-even Tigers.

I imagine that this animation was for modern tanks as this rocking motion helps with the gun recoil.but WW2 tanks don`t.

Perhaps this animation should be toned down a lot-- what do you think?

Um not it doesn’t - if it happens, its a side effect.

Well as all the AARs are based on Betas earlier than the ones we are currently looking at - it may well be (but I can’t say much more).

Thanks for replies.

To Gibsonm :- What I said about modern tanks was only a justification of the way they are depicted in CMSF. If I`m wrong-sorry.

However it seems that the majority of posters agree with me that it looks so wrong in a WWII setting,especially since BF like to be so accurate.:)
