From my understanding, ships and tanks and other armored vehicles will eventually be more or entirely resistant to certain small-arms fire. Soooo it will likely be a heck of a lot better than getting killed by the first guy who has a common rifle.

[@AsuraDandy]

This tank has like, absolutely no suspension. The slightest bump really sends you up. I guess they just want to add this into the game to test the weapons and whatnot but I hope they add suspension to this tank cause it does seem jarring how stiff it is when moving around.

[@Dreamer66617]

its not the tank, its the relationship between the tank and the ground thats the problem right now. Objects arent colliding properly. That will be smoothed eventually.

It's an anti air tank. Not sure if that is actually planned, but let's see. I already like it so far.

I believe they said it was intended to lock onto ground targets too

[@MylesJacobSwie]

@@vorpalrobot It's literally called "Tumrbil Storm AA". It's meant for just Anti-Air. Ground targets don't have the HP to withstand even a few S1 Missiles, it would destroy the meta.

Tanks jump when they're eager to go out for spin. Could use more armor in front of driver. Nice firepower, especially if there are several in the battle

[@novasnake2532]

I imagine the bouncing is due to a suspension issue. It feels like those track nacelles(?) should all individually move

[@awsm253]

The fact that the Tumbril (Apparrently?) Fits in the Connie series has already made me mega happy. Being a Taurus owner, the last update for me was amazing. I can finally use my Tether beam AND Jam a light tank in my Cargo hold? F*** yeah!

I have some sorry news to give you but no the storm infact does not fit inside the connie, atleast not without being at a serious risk of getting a case of the booms

[@Mocorn]

Love what this game is becoming but man the vehicle code is rough right now. The way it handles looks like some super Nintendo level stuff :)

[@uberfu]

Let's clarify some > The flight model for flying vehicles is more or less functional minus some polishing; the drive model for the ground vehicles has always been secondary since the game is primarily a space sim.

[@FunkThompson]

This was admitted to by CIG, that the initial Storm launch is not quite 100% done for vehicle physics stuff, and not *all* the ground vehicles yet have the new code. Those that do handle a lot better, and they are still dialing it all in.

Apparently your axies might get messed up if you pull out your sticks from their USB ports. The only 2 times I had to redo my keybinds was once when I changed from a thrustmaster t 16000 m to a virpil Constellation, and when they reworked a huge part of their flight setup. So my settings stayed the same since basically 3.13.

[@Podokodo23]

For both tanks you missed the "enter turret" button on the dash.

[@Crycane]

fyi: the base storm turret can rotate 360° when in remote turret. Also the weapon got 5km range and 1732 sustained dps (2917 burst). Its not just a S3 repeater, its a S3 repeater on crack.

[@R1po]

The combined arms battles will be legendary. What we have in Planetside 2 right now, but with way better graphics.

[@peppercornsauce5067]

Nah you're absolutely right about the keybinds though. It's immensely annoying, especially when I spent hours at times tweaking the perfect setup (for me) which is the least enjoyable part of this immense game, only to look forward to the latest patch and then realise that every hour I've spent honing the controls has been completely reset ... Imagine if every time you turned your phone on it factory reset..! 🤬

[@leesakowski790]

I've noticed that HOTAS/HOSAS keybinds don't seem to change with patches. I think (I am using a premade setup so haven't actually changed anything yet) that those keybinds actually bind the joystick buttons to the function, rather than the keyboard button, so as long as the function doesn't change, the joystick buttons don't either.

[@Tillman581]

Problem is the armor systems are in the game yet, so things are just balls of HP, which the guns deplete at rather constant rates. Once armor is in proper we will have DR and weapons with varying effects. Also will REALLY affect the different ships out there. Drake and MISC aren't known for armor for example, wile RSI leans into it harder than the shield tech (MISC is kinda the opposite)

[@elvis_mello]

I tried bringing these tanks in a bounty hunting mission and I found it to be quite bouncy, even with little rocks. There must be something wrong in the code for the suspension.

[@adawg3032]

They updated all of the ground vehicle physics and a bit of the code for everything is quite broken right now, it needs a bit of fixing. Right now for some reason parked vehicles will sometimes move on their own inside cargo bays which can be annoying.

[@tranquilclaws8470]

Star Citizen really needs to work on their tank and terrain physics.

8+8=16x2=32 size 1 missiles on the urban camo one! btw the key binds reset when you delete USER folder which they ask you to do when theres a patch or your have bugs! I stopped starting NB cause obviously the event at MT was causing client crashes and 30k's so, I don't it because you can't take your helmet off outside but I've had to move to Hurston just for November until the event ends I had 12-15 crashes on Monday because of the lag at MT, then i'll probably go back when the event & free flight has ended because MT number one it's home to me! but I feel like I was having these crashes on MT before the event so i'm unsure! I got a great rig a Rog Strix 4070Ti OC ED! (oced further by gpu tweak), 40GB of DDR4 3200Mhz RAM, Ry5 5600X with some grizzly thermal and a artic Esports DUO fan heatsink block in red and black to cool it with a Rog Strix Hyperion case! I'd like to preface I am not rich just really patient I get 40 every 2 weeks the gpu took me 6-8 months the pc case took me 4 (but only cause the delivery didn't ship the first time for some reason) the ram were relatively cheap in comparison and I skimped out a while back as a make do for the motherboard and got the a520m-k prime but only because in 2025 I intend to see how well the next gen am5 cpu and motherboards do and see if they overcome the issues that plagued the the 1st gen am5 cpu's and motherboards... if i'm gonna spend anything over £300 on a cpu or mb then I wanna make sure it's not gonna have a cascade failure i'm not rich or poor just broke most the time except for that £40 every 2 weeks spare that doesn't go to food and drink and other needs, it's more than some people have! but theres plenty of people with my budget who would say we can't have those things we can't afford them... and I call those people... impatient! I like playing the long game I wouldn't recommend the high end rog gear for an enthusiast gamer who's just looking to game theres cheaper builds but I make youtube videos on another channel and the editing and gaming power is important to me it make more sense as a creator why i'd get them also I play in 4k on star citizen sometimes I get just above 40fps sometimes I get 50-130fps! but since this event i've been getting more concistently 30-50+fps on the good servers and anywhere between 1fps and 30fps on the bad ones! but the moment I took off from micro and left the mt system heading for hurston my fps jumped (though it did sadly drop again at loreville so once i'm done getting amenities i'm off to get a bit a cargo missions in the syulen this is the first time i've had stable gameplay without any crashes in half a year maybe more since at leastin 3.19 started)

Great fun for outposts but took ages & couldn't use the front-right box rack. They look great but they don't drive well & get stuck on terrain pretty easily, if you're not careful. Also, remote turret view helps.

So unrealistic and totally idiotic :D My complaints with the Storm. Low armored, it slides.. Belts shouldn't slide. It's got a VERY low mid section, so stones and terrain will stop and flip you, easy.. Turret should go 360 around the tank, like a normal tanks cannon, eventho this is a turret.

[@dakaodo]

Tumbril Storm looks science-fantasy cool, with nice lines, but otherwise... shrugs. At this point I"m obvs expecting slavish devotion to rule of cool, and not hard science fiction from SC. But from an AFV design perspective, putting components and access compartments on the tread outriggers increases mass, volume, and more mass for armor due to the increased volume -- all of which would make the outriggers heavier, requiring sturdier suspension arm thingies which will already be eye-wateringly complex, which again increases mass, and so on. If you're gonna put tracks on outriggers, gotta keep it simple, compact, robust with as much of the electronics and mechanicals on the main chassis as possible. Each outrigger should be designed to be somewhat redundant, so that the vehicle can hope to survive losing 1 of the 4 outriggers. Actually, "simple, compact, robust" applies in general to AFV design b/c any volume increase adds significantly to armor surface area requirements and mass. This is an age-old AFV design challenge with compromising/balancing volume, mass, power (the latter being expressed variously as mobility and/or firepower or other capabilities like active protection etc) for a given level of tech development. But a hard-science low-polygon slab of necessarily flat composite armor surfaces (or even curved superscience composite armor surfaces) visually reflecting the design choices of the past century of AFV design would feel like too much of a copout and throwback to Battlezone, so gratuitous complexity it is to justify the production budget. :P

I don't really get the storm, it's a 1-man light scout tank with no interior, that's wider than a 3-man main battle tank with an interior, it has screens inside to let you see out, but they're far away and mostly obstructed giving you a terrible view. The thread pods don't articulate at all, giving it the suspension of a brick. I like the idea, I like the look, but it's just so limited in functionality and fitment.

[@Taisto-Perkele]

Unpopular opinion: the Tumbril Storm should have been a *hovercraft,* not a treaded ground vehicle. The appearance and performance would have fit together more nicely that way.
