Tiger 1
« on: October 07, 2005, 08:14:49 AM »
Lastnight I upped a tiger and got 30 kills in it before I died.  The cost for the tiger before I spwned was 52 perks.  When I died it was 53 perks.  I lost 58.6 perks, how is this with 30 kills?

It's a bug where your kills are ADDED to the loss. I thought it went away because it hasn't happened to me for a while.

Slightly off this subject, I killed a Tiger with an M16 the other day. Shot it in the track like a madman; the track pops off and I stop shooting, but start shooting again to annoy him. Then he blows up. No one else hit him either...was teh awesome. :D

This bug has been around since day 1 of the Tiger. Reported over and over. I figure it's HTC's way of saying if you're gonna take a Tiger, you better land those kills.

The usual 'excuse' is quote -"you killed the pilot/driver".
I've also killed one with an Osty, total BS, shouldn't happen, but will continue to happen until HT finally gets around to fixing the totally porked GV damage model.

Side armor would prevent driver kill from 600 yrds from 4x.5 guns. Besides, I hit him on the spot that smokes (Exact center of the tred). I bet this could be easily replicated offline, but I'm having technical difficulties.

Just use a pintle to find the spot that puts out a grey puff on the track, kill it so it's a fresh Tiger, get an M16, and unload on the spot. If the track pops, keep firing. I bet it will go "boom" ;)

say what you will but i feel it is very unfair to up a tiger worth 42 perks...kill 42 panzers and 3 tigers ...get killed and still lose 41 perks....somehow its just not fare....the ENY or perk or something needs to change....it may be easy to get kills in a tiger and a tiger can be tough to beat SOMETIMES but to lose that many perks when you get that many kills is retarded:furious

RE: M16 vs Tigr:

You shot his tracks off, and started pinging him to annoy you. If he towers out because he's disabled you get the kill, even if you didn't "kill" him. He gets a capture.

Negative, he EXPLODED, complete with that buggy rotation that sometime happens with a fast kill. It wasn't a disco; he stayed on Roster for a while after.

When your tower out you explod. Unless you mean his turret popped off?

I've never seen anyone explode when they towered; only disappear...
