Add GV hull gun damage.
« on: May 22, 2009, 07:27:14 AM »
OK question for you all. Has any one ever had the hull gun go out on any GV you have been driving? Or have you ever damaged one you have been shooting at? I ask this because it is a little frustrating to take out the main gun on a tank or a flack in an M8 & to have the de-fanged GV just drive up to you 20 feet away pounding you with the hull machine gun & you can't kill it's gun.

It matters not that your shooting the hull gun with your main gun using HE rounds or AP or even 50 Cal's it can't be taken out even at 20 feet. Then of course the hull gun proceeds to tear your m8 apart & then you die.
Whine over.

You missed the point I was making I never stopped shooting it until it took out my main gun pintel gun engine & also tracked me both sides then killed me. I would say I put about 9 rounds right in the hull gun using both AP & HE.

Nope but I once got a pilot (driver) wound in a tiger and kept blacking out in the drivers seat.

+1 on the Wish.  I have got the PW in a SDK and an M3.  It's just weird to experience in a vehicle instead of a plane.

I think this only bothers those who have to take bases! A GV that is turreted still can kill troops :aok I say keep it the way it is!

To many times than can be counted it is that 0ne GV with only a hull gun that refuses the HORDE,  I like it :rock

My only real issue is that it is unrealistic that a single machine gun can't be damaged at all. Especially in light of the fact that just a few 20mm rounds can track a tank & you can take out the top pintel with almost anything that hits it.
