Ok so this thing is unstoppable to the point where Panzer.2Cs are running away and beging to not to destroy them.
I no joke have them swinging their turret side to side (saying, no dont shoot me)
But they are smart, they equip a large grenade pouch with 3 Explosion Packs and banzai charge me, then jump out of the tank and lob grenades under my tank while im shooting their tank a point blank range not knowing they jumped out and now are crawling under my tank.
I cant even say im mad, its beyond halarious that they ether beg for their life or banzai charge me.
I know this thing is thick and angled but was i like this irl?
T50 is the best tank hands down in Moscow… but not invulnerable (turret has good enough weak spot, unlike some ugly brick in Normandy)
Same thing can be said in Tunisia with the Grant vs armoured car, or Normandy with a Stuart vs a panther. Some engagements are best avoided
Yesterday I had a match where I killed 3 ABs in a row in the starter UK tank. (Obviously forgot to take a screenshot.) So far I had no problems with destroying it, quite an easy prey in comparison to stories I’ve heard.
They have a cruiser style of “all or nothing” armor. You can overpen them with AT rifles by shooting at middle wheel. Aircraft cannon can pen them from the top. From the front they are much much better armored but sides are paper thin. Their modules are kind of small for the size of the tank - there is nothing in between the turret and engines.
I could say a thing about the Panzer IV where the T-60s couldn’t do a damn thing so I get to use my AT squad with PTRS and explosive pack.
Jumbo is much worse in Normandy against anything but the panther but atleast theres the panzerfaust where blowing up those jumbos are really satisfying much like I use it against panthers in Berlin.
the cupola is its weakspot, so playing against it feels somewhat like facing a jumbo in normandy, sometimes you one hit kill it with your panzer IV, and sometimes you wont deal any dmg what so ever.
Bad hitbox combined with too small weakspot, i hope the future tanks in each campaign will have lots of dmg and pen and less armor because this “shoot me if you can” gameplay is really aids.
