But one thing to remember with PS1 was the forward cannon for the Mag bloomed fairly quickly and was low damage, not to mention the mag had a more floaty feel to it which was fine when it didn't effect the main cannon; but now that the main cannon depends on a more accurate range of movement I doubt that floaty feeling will be making a return.
In 2142 the tank steers with the mouse, and attempts to steer towards where you point, there is no snapback at all. It honestly feels like a slower turning faster running infantry. Except when you shoot the main cannon you get knocked back a few feet.
