T-34 bugs
« on: November 07, 2004, 06:30:46 AM »
Have noticed the T-34 tracks sit underground, this may be responsible for being able to see it through terrain.

Also i have found the T-34 to be invunerable to cannon fire...  I was hitting one for about 3 minutes constantly from manned ack as one porked our base.  Tried hitting everywhere from tracks, to turret, to drivers slit for NO effect.  I also had the same problem with 40mm on Hurricane IID.  I put about 15 rounds into the back/turret of a T-34 for NO effect. 1-2 hits from vickers gun on a Panzer turret usually disables it and same for the engine.
I am not ashamed to confess that I am ignorant of what I do not know.

HMMM....I just lost the tracks in a T-34 to a one second burst from a straffing Me 110-G2.  I wouldn't call the tracks invulnerable to cannon fire.

And I killed a T-34 with two passes in a Hurr IID. Not disabled, he blew up. I was attacking him in the side.

I have hit several continuously with shells from a IID (talking hit sprites, not richochet's, engine, turret, tracks for no damage.  This is hitting on or very near my convergence setting (350) for no visible damage.  I have also talked to thrila who has had same problem and was going to post video of it here.

I have had the same problem with IL2, no damage from its cannon on or near convergence setting.


And i know my aim is fine, i am very adept at plinking out panzer turrets usually 1 hit on convergence from IID or 1 pass from IL-2.  Unfortunately for me though - all this usually results in is assist.

I've tried out the il2 when 2.01 was first released...  was only getting assists....   Has anyone else noticed this?  I think the il2 will no longer be a big threat to GVs armor anymore.  :(  

It's easier now to up big bombers and fly low carpet bombing, which is kind of lame.
