For the first six days after launch there was an odd bug where if you stacked 4 tacos (beef only) on your PC during the loading screen you'd insta-win the game. We kept it hush hush from the community, but I used it to rank up pretty high before we patched it.

Why it only ever worked with beef tacos, we never knew. Why it had to be exactly 4, we could only guess at.

There was a taco truck across the street of the studio before the one they're in now called Tacofino, it was delightful. Hmmm... Best part of that studio, which was in an otherwise professional office building filled with lawyers and mining companies and other types who wore suits and thought we were slackers, was the food trucks.

Basically they would shoot certain enemies just like a tank would, the projectile would be quite fast and actually hit vehicles.

Here is an example from the m8 in a game where giap uses the vehicle pretty well. Scott was ridiculously good at release(even though few realized it) but I do think it was something cool and different that they could change how they fired which added to the units depth.

Pack howie and ISG weren't quite as fast but they at least kinda worked as soft AT, which was intended and why they were so expensive and couldn't retreat to begin with(you can't retreat AT guns)
