Barrel targeting

Call it what you want…you think i really care about what you think? The forum post was to the devs, not you not anyone else. You seem to be the one with nothing better to do but troll the forums. If the game is so great shouldn’t you be playing it? You can do nothing to explain the issue, fix it or do anything but try to spin it to fit your idea of what you think this game is or is not.

Only a few people had any valuable input all the rest of you just do the usual crap.4

Nope - this forum post was to a public forum so is to everybody - the only things the “devs” read is bug reports and suggestions passed to them by moderators.

And that is exactly why people do it - it is easy, and it is effective.

Barrels are legit targets
If you leave your barrel poking out somewhere i’m taking it from you - just saying
If i see a stalemate between 2 people on a corner and i don’t have a kill shot but your barrel is poking out better believe i’m taking your barrel to give the teammate the kill.
Long range shot and i fire in your general direction and hit the barrel - fine your out for repairs for 30 seconds or so and present a nice free target if anyone’s closer.

Hitting an enemy’s barrel from distance with a moderate to large caliber gun is one thing.

But it’s too easy to accomplish for AFVs/SPAAGs with autocannons. Totally negates one of the main advantages of medium and heavy tanks - armor. No need to pen the armor when you can make the tank useless for quite some time (repair + possible reload), assuming it survives to do the repair.
