Hellcat engine startup opinion
Hello all, I wasn't awash with the joy I thought I was going to experience when I completed my M-18 Hellcat Tank rescue and restoration. Side note. The interior had a bit of a worn look considering it is a restoration of a tank. But that's just nit picking. Anyways, I have asked my friend Trebor for lots of help over the years and given him lots of feedback. He is a great member of the team. So Trebor you know I would not and am not disrespecting the title in any shape or form. Because I know you guys will work till it's done right. I can't give you enough praise.

That being said, now I'm not going leave a dramatic statement and tear the game to shreds throw a fit and just run wild as what is a common practice for some critics of any games. My only concern was that I was hoping that the Radial engine to which I am hoping to get an earlier model M4 in the game which included that engine. Is pretty unspectacular. It turns over fairly easy. As we all know they are very troublesome at times to get running and considering even a rebuild I was hoping to hear it pop, sputter, fart, pow, bang. Like numerous times I have seen on videos of the vintage machines firing up.

My request is that when time is available to reexamine the sound file for the start up of her engine to give it that gusto we all love from those oil fume belching radial engines we so profoundly adore. I did happen to find a Tiger 2 in the scrap pile. Lucy for me before the update. I'm sure like the Maus they wont be so easy to find again. I haven't been feeling to good and just go to do a remove the rust from the King Tiger. Anyways, I hope to have more time enjoying the DLC as I start to hopefully feel better.

Anyways. Thank you for your time and effort. I greatly appreciate all the work the team does. All the best guys. Stay safe and healthy.

PS there was one other thing, I was working on the Hellcat. I installed the periscope for the drivers cover. I clicked on it. And it had a reticule with range markings. I had a heck of a time trying to escape that view and just hit quick reload. The exit tank button. Anything and I eventually escaped that view. Might be another issue as before I think with the Maus. I can't recall. I understand where you guys are going. Implementing new features to an already polished game is very tricky. But we know you will keep at working on these issues!

All the best
Jason

Hi Jason!

1. The request for new engine sound has just been sent to the sound designer ;) We will try to get a better version

2. Yeah, periscopes need to be fixed, currently operating with them is not useful at all

Cheers!

That's fantastic! Thanks so much Goozy! Have a good one. All the best to the team. Stay safe and healthy. We are now officially under Martial Law in Canada. Can you believe it? Over truckers protesting. Never thought I would see the day.
