There is no Easy 8 in-game.
I also refer to the Panther in terms of a Bazooka because you can pen the Tiger I frontally with the M9 (even blow up the ammo racks), but it struggles more with the Panther due to the angled mantle and post-pen dmg “only” hitting turret components.
In the worst case, they switch to Allied battles and desert Soviet ones.
I also don’t know how much of a threat it will be if the Soviet mains are still too stupid to pen the goddamn mantlet since it has the same slow gun from the IS2, but this is just theory.
git gud? killed couple of tiger II after m9 update… although they will not penetrate full frontal, you just need to get in position to see their turret cheek to be able to kill them. with panzerfaust it is easy to kill them, but you need to practice your aim and range. think that there are couple of tutorials on youtube on how you can estimate range with map.
I find B.S. that you can kill it with a BR II plane im not telling you its not possible to kill it you can go kill it with a sherman im telling you that the plot armor favors exactly heavy armored vehicles with the best frontal armor while any other tank is bad… when heavy doom turtles get the most advantage its just spam no skill easy killing while you can set anti air guns in the safe zone you have your own planes to protect you in perfect scenario you can use a BR II Dauntless and boom its gone but in reality when this tank is behind the plot armor you have only 1 thing that can kill it its a plane … when the game favors such gameplay i dont know how people can complain about partisans …
Well the solution is very simple remove the gray zone for the attackers for their tanks and you will see how many tanks will see more play like the Hellcat
This is to bad map design on the Arden’s if you don’t have them it will be very interesting gameplay on other terrible maps like Berlin Maps or Normandy you simply have no where to move … Berlin maps have the worst flanking problems in General and the plot armor makes it worse that’s why I never played this campaign it was so bad …
but the thing is that it is not only 1 thing that can kill it. plane is most efficient way to kill it, but there exist other ways. AT rocket launchers and AT guns can kill KT if he actually turns his turret(yeah it sucks that you cant kill it frontally with US). 76w can kill it if you shoot commander cupola(but it is pixel shot), so 76w need APCR that can pen it reliably(would be good if we got it on non premium). pershing can kill it.
but that is only if you play US. if you play soviets, suddenly you dont have most of those problems. panzerfaust pens 220mm, they have AT mortar, they have is2, t34-100, KV2, su-100. not to mention we will soon get high BR AT guns that will hopefully pen KT easily for all nations.
cool, what about other 100 tanks in the game? we need to equalize tank gameplay as KT vs everything else? also my problem with partisans is not about them killing tanks, but about them being made for spawn killing.
Its not all making the possibility of playing aggressively with some thanks is just better gameplay give a lot BR IV tanks their Arcade speed from war thunder and see how many more interesting tanks will shine like the Panther T-34-85 or the Hellcat
please tell me how to play aggressively with tanks on maps that are just shit for tanks? you cant flank on most maps, you cant breakthrough enemy lines, you dont have terrain for maneuver warfare cause of uneven terrain and lots of obstacles. not to mention lots of obstacles that can make tank unmovable cause tanks dont behave like vehicles with tracks. only “aggressive” play for tankers is to get up close where someone will toss det pack under their tracks…
