Unfortunately not most maps support this kind of tactic, the best you can do is carry some HE rounds, very helpful, considering not most USSR vehicles has a moving top mounted machine gun.
2S3M is far one of the best SPG without any assistance like thermal imagers or laser rangefinder. It can sustain 12,7 mm rounds without any issues, on the front. The fact that still at 6.3 is interesting to say the least.
I complety disagree your comment about 2S3M, it does not have thermal image but night vision that is useless in days.
It doesnt even have single rangefinder modifaction and anything.
and 2S3M has exact same explosive mass and ammo mass, its incredibly stupid when 50 cal can pen it anywhere on turret anyways, like seriously?
Most of times u cant even mg m44 because US has most of times only mg that can pentrate m44 front and thats all.
I mean one of the best SPG without those assistance tools. I didn’t mean that 2S3M has these.
It looks very much WW2 like so immersive enough for me.
It is incredibly easy to kill.
It misses me every time I am like 300m or further away due to low muzzle velocity.
It doesn’t have a turret like many other HE slingers so it has to expose itself a lot.
I didn’t buy it yet.
It pisses me off that every country and their colony got it.
I very much expected Russian tech tree enjoyers to cry about it.
M44 is my kinda vehicle. Big boom. Nothing else. OP sounds like he has made this topic based on facing the M44, rather than actually using it. If it doesn’t kill the enemy in one shot, what is it going to do? big reload, no armor, exposed crew, no HE-VT shell (to protect itself from air). If it didn’t 1-shot you, I’d be concerned.
Gaijin can’t resist adding a HE laucher in WW2
BR should be raised to 11.3
