never said i had to. it was in working condition when i got to it. i was only commenting on that it is possible to use them as infantry
yea i just thought you were trying to use that as an excuse for why we shouldn’t have a wider verity of explosives and explosives that instakill all tanks should be reserves for AT Gunners only, like the magnetic mines and composition C-3
like i wouldn’t mind if normal infantry has ST grenades and the current explosion packs were toned down so they aren’t soo cheap that would be a decent balance that way infantry men could potentially destroy tanks just like AT specialists but it would take a lot more skill, just like how it would be in real life.
only the bomber class(AT trooper) should be able to carry det pac’s
“Deployed Army combat engineers conduct route clearance operations to uncover improvised explosive devices, and they’re also experts at breaching operations, using high explosives in a variety of means.”
Assuming that tank repair time would increase from the current 10 seconds to the normal 2-5 hours at minimum with all the extra necessary tools arriving in a destroyable truck, and when tank crew leaving the burning tank through hatch one by one in a minute, they would catch fire, I fully support your crusade for reality vs. game balance idea.
This is sort of an arcade game, please don’t try to correlate it too heavily to real life, it’s fun how it is right now (tanks vs. infantry-wise) - first extend the possibilities and only then cut back the already available ones.
now your just being ridiculous… while i do actually support the idea of a supply truck vehicle for a mechanized unit Engineer re-work and New Light Vehicle Utility Squad Idea 2-5 hour repair time is just taking it to the stupid extreme… its not like im asking for a fucking real life simulator but if your gonna try to advertise your game as a realistic WW2 shooter don’t be surprised when the players point out unrealistic aspects JFC…
I think you and @96736484 are fixated at changing ONE more or less balanced aspect of the game due to being unrealistic, without wishing to change all the other connected unrealistic things or taking care of keeping the balance. Even though you don’t have problem with said balance, just you feel it too unrealistic and too easy.
I agree with that it’s unrealistic to blow up a huge steel case with a random 10-15m throw, but teleporting out from that stuff is just as unrealistic, fixing it in seconds is just as unrealistic, and…
There was Günther Viezenz in reality with 21 tank kills, not an AT guy, and here you are, resurrecting every time, seeing the tank marker through walls and everything and you can’t kill 21 tanks.
If you feel it is too easy, just stop killing tanks with explosion packs, do it with axe or knife for what it’s worth, a knight would surely not try to flank. Or just watch how it is done by new players and you’ll see how much they suffer with those super-easy detpacks, not even unlocked at start and suffering to get the necessary amount of bronze orders they need when finally they unlock it. If every second tank driver would complain that explosion packs are overpowered, I could understand it, but not this way. And yes, please ask for AT grenades, sticky explosives, better AT turrets etc.
I wish you don’t come with realism as a valid argument, if you don’t attack all the other unrealistic things around tanks. And if you don’t wish to understand what problems do I have with the suggestion, this is all I could do.
Nah, it’s just that I inxisted too much about this topic because the dissidents did argumentate with nothing but sarcasm while I was looking for serious answer so I started thinking that they just wanted milking this “unbalance” to get easy kills at the expense of tanks, after a while they luckily started answering me exhaustively .
Obviously I want all of the failing aspects to get fixed, not just this one.
never said that method of exiting the tank wouldn’t actually be a good idea, honestly i could get behind that.
as for your suggestion to not use a super cheap OP item… your literally asking me to not abuse a very cheap way to blow tanks up nearly every time instantly with a single explosion pack… regardless of weight class… like sure i can understand the fuckin sd.kfz and m5a1’s with a single detpack but not the panzer iv heavy’s, sherman tanks and fuckin jumbos…
Just to point out your rather biased historical needs both of the latter mentioned tanks are actually medium tanks. Not heavy tanks.
ok i guess your technically correct about the technical classification of the sherman and jumbo… the thing is the jumbo was noted to have armour comparable to the heaviest heavy tanks during the war just with a medium tanks armament…
like i wouldn’t mind giving the axis Tiger II’s if the allies get M26 Pershing’s
Among many other things such as infantry actually having AT weaponry and not even in total there was 1million tanks etc.
It doesnt magically become a heavy tank just like chaffee aint medium tank just because it has 75mm gun.
“Thanks” I suppose the historical / realistic fact that there werent many of either one doesnt bother you?
Kinda like thats cool to have jumbo at normandy.
i already said i fuckin misread that stat. like what you want a hiro cookie for bringing it up again
but it magically becomes as armoured as a heavy tank now doesn’t it…
see now your just taking it to the extremes again
and sure we didn’t have jumbo’s at the normandy landing but we had all these tanks which we’re missing in game
Yes please.
So I can upgrade my Fiat 900 to F1 by adding new steering wheel and painting mclaren to side of it ?
You sir have invented something serious here.
Im just actually intrested how much your “realism” bubble can stretch.
I bet that sherman DD will be the most popular tank if it gets added. Canvas and everything.
if you add a mclearen engine then yea sure your fiat 900 will be an F1 but im not sure how long the wheels will stay attached
yea i can see the DD tank being highly used as well given the fact that your able to friggen float in water with it while your shelling, though the crab tank would be really useful for mowing down footsoldiers with the hanging ball and chains on the front
lol hows that a dumb answer you asked
and the answer is yea, you can upgrade any vehicle to a Formula 1 car if you throw the correct engine on it, how well it will handle at those speeds is a whole other ballgame.
just stop.

im pretty sure your fiat is under 6.5FT wide and if you chop the roof off it you can half the height of the car and there’s no length limit soo yea lol might need a bit more reinforcing and upgrades but its completely possible to turn a fiat 900 into an F1 car, would look like shit and would probably handle like shit at high speeds but as a proof of concept it would be completely possible
dont give “them” ideas
them being the spam-complainers
