King Tiger still bounces on T34 drivers hatch and turret

Suggestions

just stop with unnecessary strong armor and simply stick to the real world 1:1

there is zero gameplay benefit for good hits to still count as a miss because of a faulty game design.

Your hit obviously wasnā€™t good.

bla bla, your mama is a skill issue.

or to stay on topic, saying skill issue is completely missing my point, I am not even talking about balance or anything comparable, all I am saying is that the long 88 should not ever bounce on a T34, everything else is pure heresy towards ww2 tank portrayal.

my hit was good, when my gun would have penetrated 100 out of 100 times in the real world.

I refuse to learn how the game wants to function, when I already know how the real tank did function back in the day, thus I call every hit with a long 88 a good hit - because ultimately it didnā€™t matter.

Another guy thinking casual arcade(ish) fps game is somewhat simulation of reality.

When you forgot that game advertises with War Thunder/ devs basically recycle WTā€¦
" Thatā€™s why the accurately recreated ground vehicles and aircraft look, move and are controlled in the most realistic way (lol hard) and their damage model is quite sophisticated."

pay attention that this guy fought in a king tiger

It can bounce / nonpen if you donā€™t shoot center mass or get unlucky shots like a very small portion between the turret face and cheeks, or the side of the turret ring (Assuming the Tiger II ingame uses APCBC, if HEAT thereā€™s PLENTY of space it canā€™t pen)

And of course if you shoot the angled portion of the turret / scrape the side of the tank

The T34 can bounce anything, anywhere at any time. Because Stalinium.
Donā€™t worry about it, itā€™s all in the sekrit dokuments.

Its called getting Gaijined there same thing when T-34-85 and IS-2 couldnā€™t penetrate Pantherā€™s turret at times because of RNG.

And is-2 shell bounces of every german tank, but you also need to spend 3-4x as much on reloading. Your point?

well the IS 2 should be on par with the Panther tank, yet the panther tank performs like a Panzer IV in Berlin.

Penetration in general is much to low in this game, with basically all vehicles.

Launch game, get cold and hungry, get trench feat and dysentery, game closes without you shooting a shot.

stick to the real world does not mean getting diarrhea from army rations.
