POLL: Do we want to change Abrams engine sound?
It's been a while since I made this sound from generic APU Turbine, but a few months ago, I received actual recordings from Abrams's driver.The reason why it never saw the light is the sound - it's unimaginably annoying, it could be tweaked slightly, but overall tone will drastically the perception of the tank in terms of sound.
