You are wrong about hitting hte tracks - that was the 3rd shot - shots 1 and 2 hit the driver viewport and injured the driver - making him a “medium” red. That was the “nothing”

Indeed at 3:22 I “missed the timing” - because I was aiming somewher else and he backed uup quicly so by the time I was on target it wasn’t exposed any more.

Not sure why you think that is significant?

And actually they did do damage - right at the beginning they destroyed the gun breech - and these were just the short barreled 75mm P3’s - the N’s??

Other than that they jsut weren’t shooting at me much - only a couple of shots at the beginning, then from the 3:22 P3 onwards ther was a few shots - 3 before I turned to face better - but even before then the side armour was at >45 degrees to him so not an easy penetration for him.

Jumbo wins hands down even with bad ap rounds. Just shoot through the port and if the Pz4 is slightly angled, it knocks the ammo rack. The only exception is long range, which both are kinda even. Big deal, no important battles happen like that.

Reminds me very much of one carrot looking guy from murrica, perhaps your relatives?

Arent you something cupcake. When ever discussion is about balance issues you are among first ones crying how everything is fine and people should just l2p.
And here you are claiming you cant pen p4 front which probably can be penned even by pistol.

And nice vid tho, idk what your point was but there you sat on middle of open area while 2 or 3 ? tanks couldnt do shit against jumbo.

“Strumpistole”, I suppose :wink:

1.09 Front P4? No.

Copy the video into any jumbo arguments. This is the apotheosis of balance.

Full ai with more objectives, make sense. You like it that way, I see

The best solution is to change place for m10 and jumbo which we’ll be balance by panther

The jumbo shouldn’t even be there, personally I would really prefer it if they had historically correct vehicles at least in the different campaigns, I know it would be almost impossible for them to have realistic weapons for the infantry in those campaigns because of the nature of the progression in the game but they could at least make the vehicles realistic, and realism has its own sort of balance.

This would mean removing things like the M 24 which didn’t see Service until the battle of the bulge.

Things one might expect to find in Normandie would beM10’s, Churchill’s, fireflies, 75 mm Shermans in abundance, no 76 mm Sherman’s, Panthers, king tigers and tigers, stug’s, various Panzer IV’s, Cromwell, jadgpanther, Jadgpanzer IV L48, Marauders, Stuart’s, I could go on at some length.

The firefly really is at the top of the Allied food chain either the superlative 17 pounder followed by the M 10’s 7^ mm, and the 6 pounder equipped Churchill, the built if the Allied tanks in Normandy had the 75 mm gun, all the Cromwell’s in NW Europe and 75% of the churchills were equipped with a 75 mm gun that fired the same ammo as the US 75 mm Sherman’s, and of course most of the tanks the British were using were 75 mm Shermans.

The 75 mm guns the US was using we’re capable of killing all of the German tanks from the side or rear at the combat ranges we typically see in game, only the front of the panther and the king tiger are really immune to their attentions, and the Jadpanter and Jadgpanzer IV, the 76 mm gun on the M10 While not the penetrator the 17 pounder was, could deal with almost everything except for the king tire from the front and even that the 17 pounder would find challenging at certain ranges but not at the range as we seem games.

I really do think the realism at least with regards to the tanks would be both immersive and completely effective in game terms and give them plenty of options
