Two tanks, two Wolves

// Handling & rules

Vehicle inventories of purchased vehicles are now private to the driver and their squad by default. A new setting lets you open yours up to everyone once the vehicle is fully unlocked.
Inventories of vehicles that spawn for free for each team stay open to everyone, regardless of the above setting. Use at your own risk.
Tracked vehicles now feel weightier - less floaty when in the air, less bouncy on landing.
Humvee handling reworked: less stiff over terrain, slower build to top speed, more effective than previously at climbing terrain.
Dune Buggy brakes less effective, slightly increasing skid and drift capability.
Explosives and placeables can no longer be used from enclosed vehicle seats.

Same aircraft, bigger bills.

Little Bird AH-6M (Miniguns) unlocks at level 8 for $125k, and its per-life price rises $7,000 → $12,000.
Havoc $18,000 → $28,000; Z20 Lakota (Miniguns) $8,000 → $15,000; Little Bird Rockets $12,500 → $18,800.
Minigun damage falls with the .308 calibre cut.
Cockpit glass now works both ways, so shooting out through it damages your own helicopter.
The MGL-40 gets a reload penalty and more sway on the Little Bird bench.
The Basic Parachute costs $500 and won’t open below ~10 m, so passengers will make fewer jumps.
