That’s the issue, you haven’t experienced the time when the APDS was OP.
So if you have check my record, have you ever check I have used the M551/76 or any WWII tanks?Experience is gained, as are cases, and you’ve experienced so few of them that you’ll complain to me about lack of understanding
It happens any of time, you never know when it happened, even on panther or tigers, due to some reason, even you pen the armor, the crew members will just like drop into a paint can.
Too many times, German suffers always give me a chance to do that, especially for panthers and tigers, use hit to stop them, and the second one use APHE shot side armor, or I can directly use APHE, most of the time these German tanks can’t notice their 2 sides, pt76’s mobility is okay when the enemy has the German team.
For British, especially when I was centurion, unless is mk1, I won’t choose APCBC, they are almost same thing now. The centurion mobility is horrible, even worse than some of heavy tanks, how can expect to use it to shot the side armor.
do you realize that it is as fast a tiger 1? it just have a better hp ratio but the transmission is the worst, specially for a light tank
not knowing something as it once was doesn’t mean its bad now, just less exploitable like when fox was 7.0 and you could exploit how shit 7.0 german teams are
the 76 Sheridan has full stab and really high pen at a br where nothing else does while being fast so I’ve discarded it as its not in a regular position for APDS tanks, and ww2 tanks other than a couple don’t have APDS so don’t feed your argument
panthers are very easy to kill in Centurion, aim for the right of the hull and the driver, gunner and commander are red paste, a follow-up shot for if you didn’t get the ammo, I assume you mean Tiger 2, hit the right turret cheek, you kill gunner, commander and quite often ammo rack them as I’ve found and laughed about while in squads
It has better acceleration capability, for most maps, especially for the city maps, that is fine, max speed doesn’t mean everything, Panzer IV has slower top speed, do you think it has worse mobility?
If it wasn’t good any more, why it needs keep as before? the only reason is the static data, nobody play it, and then keeps in high level.
That’s your issue, not me, I have accepted this high-speed APDS tanks, because when the shell doesn’t; pen or damage noything, I could have chance to retreat.There are so many APDS tanks, especially for Sweden and brtish, german tanks are the simplest case, for the centurion, you need to consider like IS3, IS4 or French tanks, there is no chance for you to shot the second time, 122mm can pen almost everywhere.
Maybe because the APHE cannot even penetrate 3.7 shermans front in %60 of spots. Its basically a T-34 1941 APHE
Hard agree, to be honest. I love the Strv 101, but the '81 has never seemed to be nearly as good in the gun department and the 20lb gun always seems to be lackluster in post-pen.
I might go back over it and check it out again, though.
I could agree with the Mk 3 going back to 7.3, it’s been power creeped. The Caernarvon, Centurion 5/1, Conqueror, and arguably the Action X are just far superior to it. The rest should stay at 7.7.
With the Mk 3 going back down it also leaves room to add a Mk 7/1 or 8/1.
Haven’t really touch the cent mk3 but the mk2 seems fine to me, my main rounds for it is the mk8 shot anyway since the apds have always been a hit and miss.
I could use the same logic and say why would heatfs face ww2 vehicles?
They shouldn’t, that’s the point.
Well they are facing ww2 vehicles then I don’t see any reason why stab vehicles couldn’t
Because it’s blatantly unfair? Vehicles like the M51 make heavy tanks irrelevant.
because at 7.7 its trash. you got the vickers already sseing ww2 vehicles and its not op. its a decent vehicle
the m551 76 is not comparable to the centurion mk3. its MUCH better.
Skill issue, you can out-shoot everyone else and penetrate pretty much anything from the front
So you make a new post and complain about that buddy coz I’m basing claims on what is already happening in the game. And my point is very reasonable. Why must only one nation get shafted while the others get away with it?
Shell shattered buddy and now you are dead… The issue is not damage or something else it’s all good. The issue is reliability. I like knowing that if my stuff CAN penetrate it so it WILL. and the 7.7 tanks the cents were raised to 7.7 on these grounds coz they could reliably disable the vehicles they targeted but now the reliability is gone. So why must they suffer at 7.7 while the only reason they were 7.7 is gone now? And if you gonna bring up stab then I’ll just bring up heatfs so don’t even do that. Cents are just upgunned worse tigers with much much much weaker hull so yeah idk what u cooking up gaijin but it is burning and burning to a crisp.
Also ANOTHER point, if they are so keen on making ammo performance realistic that they added the realistic shatter mechanic then what about the APHEs not going off sometimes and the damage being comparable to solid shot?? Why don’t they make that realistic. Let everything get a taste of reality why must only a select nation suffer and you even refuse to make br changes on top of that. Yeah very reasonable sir, you are making a lot of sense rn.
