The 2.01 readme says that something about its penetration was changed.

Anybody know what happened?

Does it mean its easier to penetrate, or harder?

Kweassa , it is nearly impossible to kill a GV with the IL2 as of right now .

GV being the T-34 , only thing I tried to kill along with 4 other squaddies , it just kept rollin like the Energizer Bunny.

Kweassa,

Here is the thread you want:

JB35,

The T-34 has thicker deck and rear armor than the Panzer. To test the effect of the changes you really need to shoot Panzers as it is something that we have prior experience with.

basicly:

Hurri 40mm stronger now
IL2 23mm weaker now

yip its true the IL2 guns were uber , and they have been tuned down .

Too bad , we just added the IL2 to the JB plane set to kill GV's

hurri2d will still be relativly useless until they fix the gun angle, they should be at 0 so that you can put the gunsight directly on the target at low level and the tail wont drift into the ground...im just not seeing that currently.

For those interested in the ballistics, see Tony Williams web site on Tankbusters at: http://www.quarry.nildram.co.uk/tankbusters.htm

Toned down????

I've tried Panzer busting sorties since the change and it seems the Pzr4s will bust with 50 rounds of cannon now..

What are the convergence and range, approach speed when you guys fire the IL-2 guns?

I've tried the classic high-angle passes to the roof, and low-angle/high speed/close range shots to the rear of a Pz4 and I seem to get even better results than before..

We really need some tanks offline to work out on.
