A thread for hard data on how the game mechanics work?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZTUfkqc058

Here's a disappointing video that shows that the underslung rail for the m320 is sort of a waste of time. I think the stand alone 320 is glitched and fires before it's fully deployed, but either way, underslung doesn't have much of a timing disadvantage.

http://symthic.com/?s=bf3

And here's that chart with gun stats. Sure other people have more stuff to post, but maybe if we keep it to definite stuff rather than conjecture it could be more useful? I'd be interested in knowing if changing the fire mode on your gun alters anything like accuracy and spread. I say it doesn't but others have disagreed.

Something i've not really tested myself but we should probably look into is a bunch of vehicle specs say "this is active in any seat in the vehicle". For instance on mbts proximity scan, maintenance and thermal camo all say this. I think they are all slot 1 choices but potentially this means a gunner could be bringing a 4th spec to the tank? Maintenance probably isn't too useful but switching proxy scan and thermal camo around depending on the map threats could be very powerful. Theres a lot of laser designating happening in the game now finally (after a month and its only happening because people were made to do it for assignments) and thermal camo would help a lot with defeating those javelin locks.

you mean like how i used to jump out when a tank shell was about to hit so my tank took less damage?

This wasn't included in the gun guide that was posted and its another pretty important "stat" for guns.

Oh since it is relatively unknown: Rocket damage against tanks not only depends where you hit it, but also at what angle!

something I had half forgotten and had to confirm for myself today but the mav can blow up claymores. It can lock onto any enemy equipment including mavs, and for some reason claymores but anti-tank mines are immune, and probably c4 is immune but i'm not sure. Mortar counts as a vehicle and can't be mavved.

Also you can lock onto some weird stuff. You can lock onto with any guided/laser missle to soflams (YAY) and enemy mortars for some reason. I guess they both count as vehicles in some part of the code?
