Did you ever drive a real Universal Carrier or spoke to someone who did for that matter? They take ages to build torque and even a roundabout can pose a serious challenge for these otherwise magnificent vehicles.

I have been for several rides in vintage tracked and wheeled vehicles and some of them can move like bats out of hell.

 In fact, I was at a parade some years ago and an older gentlemen got his artillery hauler moving so fast that the cops gave him a speeding ticket.

 I think the problem lies in the vehicle code as we never had this issue with older versions of Fh2.

I have not noticed this with the half tracks, although I usually stay out of them.

At the core, the Kubelwagon and Jeep are extremely slow at accelerating.  They should be some of the most nimble and quick of all of the vehicles.

I know the Bren carrier doesn't accelerate immediately, but it seems to accelerate more quickly than the Jeep and Kubelwagon.  The Bren carrier has a bit of a delay but once it starts moving it really goes.

The problem with the Half-tracks and Hannomags stopped on an upward slope was definitely present in 2.45.  They just take too long to get traction.  It's embarrassing for drivers as the passengers tend to yell GO, GO, GO! and then jump out because they assume you are just being a 'tard.  A little delay is OK but it's like more than 5 seconds.

Also, I almost forgot.  From the videos I have watched, I believe FH's cyclic speed for the Lewis machine gun is way too high.

Would be interesting to see some Granatbüchse Modell 39 (GrB 39) anti tank guns made.

it was suggested before IIRC, but it looks like nobody has ever found enough time to model it, dunno is it even worth it to be honest? how popular was this weapon and on which maps it could be used?

Well at the invasion of Russia I think the Germans had around 25,000 Panzerbüchse 39's and from what I've found a lot of those were converted to Grb 39's starting in 1942 and they were used until the end of the war, Im assuming mostly on the eastern front.

Yes but they are making late Eastern front not the beginning so there is no need for these.

I think you misread my post they STARTED in 1942 but were used until the END of the war, so these would be fine for late war eastern front maps.

well

i managed to replace it with another aircraft

it looks half finished if you enter it it crashes

it would be a really fun plane and a real competitor to the beaufighter

then there is a he111 cant go in , only from the top gunner side but it crashes ( acctually bombers dont fit in fh2 )

but my top vehicles are the french ms.406 beautiful looking plane fully functional high level of detail
and the m26 patton - a bit unaccurate but looks absolutely sick

here some pics
