Overpressuring Heavy Vehicles

Does anyone else just have that moment when they just give up after having their obese heavy tank like the Jagdtiger get overpressured by some cold war artillery vehicle? Like i just cant bother myself to play the rest of the match at that point, can i at least get killed by a normal tank not some unfunny ass Cold war-Modern Artillery tank?

Must be talking about that German VIDAR lol there is one heavy tank that seemingly very resistant against the HE, try the IS-4M.

Also if your still in WW2 territory, most of them has APHE, which means you will one-shot them through the turret, remember that they also cannot afford to take a hit from you, you can kill them as easily as they can kill you.

I go back to WW2 ocasionally to have some fun but dear god the amount of Artillery vehicles in the game now…take me back to 2016 please

The grandpa Object 279 at 9.0 that fought modern vehicles also get popped by VIDAR. HE is a language that universally understood by every vehicles. They becomes easier to deal with when your vehicle is fully stabilized.

Pre-HEATFS Ground RB was the Peak War Thunder experience.

I remember once dying to overpressure in this way:


(angles may not be exact, point of impact is mostly exact - very edge/corner of engine compartment, nowhere near crew)

It made me very happy to be using a heavy-tank that’s known for its side-scraping potential

I do agree overpressure is quite yolo (I play the Bkan) and sometimes I feel bad for bullying WW2 vehicles with a 60s artillery piece. That’s just game design and can’t really do much about it.
