Into the West Battle Path Changes

While evaluating the results from the first weeks of the Into the West Battle Path, we have found out several concerning issues regarding Battle Path vehicle performance. These issues are, most notably:

• ZTZ-100 Main Battle Tank has unreliable armor with holes in it that is performing below the expected parameters
• Type 100 CSV is overperforming somewhat when it comes to its firepower
• ZBD-100 is overperforming by a lot, it’s completely overpowered

The third issue is extremely visible even if we take the skill influence into account (we are referring to the fact that the most skilled players get their hands on the vehicle first). To give you the idea of its performance – despite the complete lack of armor and being basically freely available early on, the vehicle significantly surpasses all vehicles, including Legendary ones, in most relevant metrics.

We are therefore taking the following steps:

• ZTZ-100: Its frontal armor is considerably thicker now with the glaring holes patched up, the vehicle is also extremely durable against HEAT shells
• Type 100 CSV: Reduced the rate of fire of the autocannon from 250 to 230 RPM

ZBD-100 will undergo more changes:

• PF11E rocket had its time between launches increased from 0.3s to 0.8s
• PF11E rocket had its magazine reload time increased to 30s
• Vehicle can now carry 12 PF11E rockets at most (down from 30)
• It now takes 2s to switch between weapon systems
• Autocannon had its rate of fire reduced to 400 RPM
• HJ-13 guided missile had its time between launches increased from 1.5s to 3s

We will naturally continue to monitor the situation and introduce more changes (in both directions) if necessary.
