Mechanics of Continuous Fire System:
- The Vz. 68 features twin guns, a first in the game.
- The tank’s new mechanic involves a high rate of fire with minimal damage per shell.
- The guns fire alternately with a 0.04-second reload between shells.
- The premium tank currently achieves an average of 220 damage per second, assuming each shot penetrates.
- Despite poor accuracy and armor penetration, the gun encourages flanking maneuvers to deal damage.
- Additionally, the tank will have a new reticle indicating the magazine fill level.
New mechanics will also appear on Tier 8, 9, and 10 tanks of the new Czechoslovakian LT sub-branch. The transitional Tier 7 tank will not have this mechanic.
