lag in detonations and destroyed vehicles

Same here, tank hit - 21..22.. - resulting animation/sound.
Tried to tweak everything I could, so the game was superfast, but the delay stayed the same. Also independent of FullScreen/Window, with or without sound, DirectX/GDI, resolution, animation detail, message delay etc. Just seems as if the game would take a break while calculating hit results, maybe with an abacus :-)
Magically, I have it on both my Desktop as my laptop.

Is it safe to say that it's XP related? :-)

ps. also tried the Compatibility Mode, but no success.
pps. It's still faster than this forum is right now for me ;-)

It's very annoying, and I vote for removing the clunk. If you're going to receive the message of that the commander of the tank squadron has been shot dead, then please do it without the clunk! I don't know which effect the designer hoped for when adding this feature, but I'm not liking it.

I am getting the "Clunk" or "Tonk" I called it in another thread.
I even get it when small arms are fired at a tank, I cannot tell if it is supposed to be the ricochet sound, but is not fully playing or what.

Hi gents,

I have noticed that time lag also in my current pbem and solo games. It happens always irrespective of the weapon that caused the destruction. The time lag also occurs in cases that result in no destruction. My opponents noticed the same thing, also.

Same problem, it is not problem if you fight infantry fight,but if you have tanks against infantry, every inf. weapon will fire at your tank (without effect mostly), delays are very painfull... looking for your patch.
