DO Something about the F****** Tanks

I have been saying this since the first alpha.The tanks are ruining the game,no matter what you do they live.The AT grenade does NOTHING 9 times out of 10,even if u throw it perfectly under them(maybe their track/tire gets yellow),On normandie they can camp at the end of the map and u cant kill them cuz thats out of the battlezone for you ,if u try to get close the game insta kills u and they can just farm 120+ kills a game.Why did they take out the pak from the engineers tool???Every single match boils down to suicide charging the tank that camps the cap circle.Its not fun…

You have to fully improve your engineer now to have all Stuff to build unlocked. Level up the Weapon ability

and until then,what am i supposed to do against the tank,because i might as well throw smoke at it instead of the at granade at least it cant see me that way for a short while.

Learn how to cook TNT packs properly.

Count to 4, then throw it onto the engine deck. Be sure to take cover or you might kill yourself in the process, but it nearly guarantees a kill if you can aim the throw.

yeah tanks die easily unless they are on a team then impossible to kill with just tnt

you can cook them all you want.

but if the puma or also the m5 eats them.

there is nothing much that you can do.

weather for you @60993536 , normandy tanks are known for be buggy.

the only way you can kill them, is weather using explosives on top of them, or use another tank and hope for the best.

one suggestion that i can give you, if you are using M5, use explosive shells against pumas,

if you are using a puma against m5… well, good luck.
try to shoot the hull frontally. don’t bother with the turett. it’s like made of concrete of 10 inches

People keep saying this since the first alpha,Im not new to the game its just broken.For example the m5 has an invisble wall under its hull,so u cant throw nade under it etc… .People keep saying its easy bro/ just cook the grenade/just get gud for a year now (even tho im always top in the 5 with infantry only) but tanks/tankers still dominate every single match.I havent seen a game where the tank spammer wasnt top 3.The only time tanks were balanced in this game was the Berlin test where we had dedicated AT squads with bazookas.

That’s the buggy hitbox of explosive packs more than anything.

Not the matches I am in, unless you count me as the tanker.

The other campaigns also have these, but generally you do not bring them due to the 3 infantry squad limit of free-to-plays.

yeah, he is right.

you can brag all you want. but you ain’t so thought.

no one actually is.

they just lowered the ability to throw AT nades. and in this earlier stage it’s crucial.

debatable.

insthead, i suggest you to uprade your normal squad with AT and once you have at troopers, put them everywhere you can.

I dont see any real issues regarding Tank vs Inf aside the HP of AT guns and the hitboxes (cough Puma and BA cough). But last one is not really a issue for charges than for lauchers, AT cannons and tank cannons. Charges are working 9/10.

On stream I have taken out every tank I could get close to.

Also an option now, yes.

and Pz38tF

i suggest you to uprade your normal squad with AT

This is my main problem,everything revolves around tanks,your sniper/engineer/trooper etc… squads need all the all the AT u can get.
Every game mode/map/theater/cap point becomes the same tankhunting game mode where u only kill infantry to get to and kill the tank.
Instead of a support it becomes the main focus of the game
Ruins inf vs inf combat flow and makes all other spec skills/unlocks/units irrelevant.

They may have power, but they cannot win games, as they cannot capture points. There are always ways to just go around the tank and cap the point instead.

Pumas are practically invulnerable to detpacks yeah, but the rest are easy kills.

Personally, i don’t have a problem killing em with TNT if they are stationary. Granted I’ve been playing since the open Pre-alphas and can see why TNT kills can be pretty difficult for alot of player and I do think a default Antitank rifle (maybe give the US a Boys ATR in Normandy and the Germans a panzerbüchse 39) could work in Normandy. Or, replace the AT rocket squad with the default Sniper sqaud in campaign unlocks

Pumas are the only ones I have problems with. I can get the detpack under them and at best it’ll still somehow only kill 1 or 2 crew members and not knock it out entirely.

I recommend throwing it above their engine, it has never failed to me.
