Here we go with another one. This patch is making some serious changes to vehicle hitreg and some other aspects of the game, so we want to test it on the PTE before pushing it to Live, to avoid any problems. Anyone that can, please help us test this feature, it should make the Heli Drone register RPG and bullet hits properly. We are aware of the Heli Drone being hard to shoot down, but it might not be so OP once you can actually hit it - so let's test it!
