    Also, literally while I was uploading this video, there was a HUGE update to the event. While the tips and tricks are still all the same, just bear in mind that some of the vehicles are mildly different compared to what I say in this video. Again, typically not huge changes, but it's worth noting. Thank you!

    Useful fact, brining an armored variant (solid or powerful) add significant weight and always reduces your total cargo space by 20% regardless of vehicle. -5 for base 25 vehicles, -10 for the base 50 boar, and -20 for the base 100 mule.

      @@MeIduce IIRC it's says 106mm in the tooltip, which makes it the M40 which is actually 105mm but called 106mm to prevent confusion (like the 75 vs 76mm Sherman guns). The reason it's still likely a recoilless rifle is because of the low velocity as opposed to RPGs. Though they did lower the explosive filler for balance and it is a fictional event so anything goes.

    Echidna is somehow the worst vehicle... how a 40mm AA cannon doesnt take out a car with multiple hits to critical areas is beyond me. Might as well be shooting paintballs at them. If it recoils enought to require constamt resteadying, i expect it to hit with enough force to warrant it. So right off the bat, 1/3 vehicles is basically useless. Doesnt even have the speed to dash and grab.

Yeah, i might be able to get resources from a fight that leaves me mostly disabled for the next person to kill me. Or its really interesting spending 2-3 min just driving to an evac to get killed.

Additionally I have a ton of experience with all CV9040's and Japanese/Swedish high tier spaa's so uh yeah.... I do know how to shoot an auto cannon?!???
      Point in case people disliking the event has nothing to do with skill, (I mean just look at my content) but instead it's the fact that the event has terrible execution and is a crafting event in disguise. (A poor disguise at that)

      @@Faded._ Yeah but tbh it's the only crafting event I have actually participated in because it's not tedious, I could easily go for the rewards that will stick with me forever but I decided to do the vehicles instead because it's more fun

    This is more like "Finch" than Mad Max..... If the mode was comprehensive and fun we wouldn't need a video convincing us to waste our spring break for cosmetics and *zero silver lions* for all those hours wasted. Lmao😂 good luck if you are having fun and dont listen to me at all, do your thing, I like tank football while you might hate it.🤷 but this is not "Mad Max" this is just RB with crossout vehicles and sand storms. Any other take is in denial... This is not Mad Max.
