When tanks do not get countered

Tanks are so easy to kill people are just overreacting just cook your explosive packs its not that hard. One can suicide bomb a tank and sacrifice a crapy rifle man to kill a tank that no one can figure out how to kill.

More of the same*

Both are still thrown explosives.

You can’t say that the G33/M1907 exactly improved things much.

It’s hard to do early on when you don’t have enough explosive packs to go around.

But that reminds me of what I’ve done a few time now:

  1. My tank gets penned by another tank, and one of my crew members survives
  2. Bail out and hide. You’re against a player and not all-seeing bots, so laying down in a bush usually works.
  3. Wait for the tank to become preoccupied with something else.
  4. Run up and suicide-bomb it

Granted it usually only works when you’re both on the outskirts of the map so enemy infantry don’t interfere.

Btw, now that fires transfer to crewmates, do molotovs kill crew members now?

Or fix it, climb back in, smack over the other tank from side/rear that it is now exposing, then slaughter 50+ bot soldiers with your 1 remaining tankie (if u r in a T-60 as I always am these days) as they moronically wander past.

Ah - the good old days, now long (20 hrs! :)) gone!

I forgot to mention that during step 2 and probably all the way into step 4, the enemy tank will 90% of the time be sitting there shooting your empty tank until it explodes.

Not my experience yesterday! :slight_smile:

well boys, the T-28 model has been added to the game in the recent update. You can’t play it yet but it will be interesting to see how it plays out since it is well armoured but very thicc and slow

It was already ingame before no?
Also there is a ton of stuff in the game files that never got added.

The T-60 actually has better raw armor, but the T-28 as weird angles, the 2 frontal MG turrets that will tank shots, etc, so it will definitely be weaker against other tanks than BT-7, T-60, Pz2 or Pz3.

i saw that also a PZ IV has been added for the germans…

i still don’t know what to whink about it…

a t28 in my opinion can and is outclassed by pz IV. too slow, not good armor, and overhall, huge weak spots.

like, is it truee that you have better survivability, but it doesn’t take much to put it out of action. it’s not like a panzer 4 that can somewhat angle him self, and survive a bit of punishment.

Let’s just see how this will play out but you’re probably right.

Do you know if Germany will be getting any new planes like the Russians are?

Just dig in the game files, vehicles and weapons are plainly named. I’m not at my PC but it’s not hard to find.

Of course there’s a lot of stuff that’s just been sitting in there for a while that hasn’t been used.

sorry for late answer. i just finished work 1 hour ago, and turned out just now.

i’m not… sure.
as i’m not a dev.

to be honest, i don’t think they add more airplanes if not some possible fighter.
such as the fw-190 for the germans, and the russian LaGG-3.
Or perhaps some fighters with rockets.
rockets and bombers could be a possibility, but it wouldn’t make the game fun. so i’m not entirely sure to count them.

like being able to use carpet bombs with longer distances. but even there, it’s situational. i’m not sure how much you would enjoy flying that, releasing a button, and leave. stuka and il-2 gameplay are a bit different and requires more skill as you still have to avoid aa.

it’s earlier to say. but i’m sure we will eventually get also an update for planes.

Planes currently in the game files- granted I’m not done patching so if more were added they might not be there for me yet

Some might not even be intended to be separate models, but it’s what I can gather from file names.

They can really easily copy paste planes from war thunder.

Now if only they could optimize the tanks so that they can do the same we could get some more tanks

they might be from others campaign, as half of those weren’t from 1941.

Berlin and Normandy are in the files so we got the entire war worth of vehicles to add

I’m just listing off everything I see in the files.

yeah i do apologize.

my fault.
i thought that the guy was asking me which vehicles could be added to this campaign. i didn’t thought for the whole.

anyway, thanks for diggin up^^

i would have done that my self. but don’t know where to look. so shout out for your effort :smiley:

( any mentions about 251s? )

Not sure what that is.

How I got to the files:

  1. Right click enlisted shortcut, ā€œopen file locationā€
  2. if it brings you to a second shortcut like it does for me, do the same again
  3. go to the ā€˜content’ folder

Then everything is neatly organized and labeled.
tanks are under ā€œtanks_country/resā€, planes are under ā€œaircraft/resā€, guns and some other miscellanea are under ā€œe_ww2_common/resā€

for some reason there are 2 content folders, ā€˜content’ and ā€˜content hq’, but they seem mostly the same.

ahh many thanks^^
