getting shot in the side of my 4.0 Sherman I lost my motor, couldn’t move, lost my turret ring, couldn’t turn the turret, and I lost my gun, either my breach or my barrel, couldn’t tell which. Is this the new way they are handling damage to the American tanks? No matter where I get shot I lose everything. REALY how much harder do they have to make it for the Americans? How would getting shot in the side of the hull, not in the motor, just the side of the hull damage the turret ring, the barrel, and the motor? It must. be a glitch. War Thunder wouldn’t do a crazy thing like that on purpose, would they?
hey so this post is crazy,
you likely got shot by aphe which funnily enough, explodes inside your tank (go figure) and damages the modules inside your tank 👍
Just wait till you get to top tier where a side pen or any pen on you disables everything. And perfect placement shots on 4 nations gets eaten by a spall liner or black hole era. You haven’t seen anything yet.
NO BUD, armor piercing round, side of the hull. broke everything . could not shoot, so the breach or barrel are broken. the turret can’t turn, so the ring is out and the tank can not move. that would be the motor is dead. I have played enough to know this is not normal. if you get shot in the motor it gets broken,shot in the barrel it gets broken shot in the breach it’s disabled BUT NOT ALL WITH ONE SHOT unless it kills the tank. with over 100000 matches played should give some credibility to my observation. and maybe not
OP, why are you surprised that your Sherman got so much damage when shot in the side? You should be surprised you did not die from that one shot. This is not World of Tanks.
My guy, it’s possible, you didn’t mention it was ap, and yet you be snippy about it.
For someone with 100k battles you should know that.
(Makes you wonder)
