HurriD tank killz
« on: April 21, 2007, 02:08:47 AM »
I have yet another in an endless line of complaints, I killed a panzer and a T-34, popped em both in the turret,and because there where alot of fighters in TT I ened up landing rather short of fuel....

I got a paultry 1.45 perks, now if youve ever flown the thing you would understand, but it aint ez to kill a tank with one, so why so little perks for killing two tanks>>>?!!!

Also a seperate line in vthe ranking system for gunning tanks would be cool... but really im not here for cool, I can bomb alot and get kills in a bomber an get 12 perks pretty regularly,,,what bothers me is that there is no way to do this killing tanks in a hurriD/IL-2...

Isn't it more satisfying knowing you took out two multi-ton steel behemoths with  plane mounted cannons?
Perk points are easy as pie to get. And even if you don't have them, there are plenty of great planes that don't require perks.

Almost 95% of the aircraft I fly are perk free.

Tanks are not hard to kill at all with the HurryD

I can get 5-10 kills without reloading if there are no competitors or aircons around to bug me.

Umm since when is it hard to kill tanks with a tank killer? Set convergence to 400 and come down steep and pull triiger once thats one kill. What you might want to look at is the ENY of the HurrIID its 25. The panzer is also 25 and the T34 is 35. So from that alone you got a few more  0.?? then you should have the perk piont bonus must have been alittle over 1.0. If you dont already know this if your in something that has 25ENY and you kill something that is also 25ENY you get 1.0 perk. If yous in some thing like 20ENY and you kill something 10ENY you get 2.0 perks. That is if perk piont bonus is at 1.00

So true! I mean, I shot down 2 planes, a Niki and I think it was a spit plus got an assist on a 38L today in a Hurri. Mark 1! I only got I think it was 5 perks, but im not complaining because it was fun just to actually get a frikin Kill in that tincan with peashooters on it! lol.

Even in attack mode you will only gather 1.25 percs .I've learned to just accept that a gv kill means very little in the eyes of the almighty perc goddess.

Eh? I cannot kill anything but Osties with HurriD, no matter where I shoot e.g. Pz4s turret top, engine comp top, sides, back. No matter what I hit it does nothing. Its nice to know it is possible, though. :confused:

Aim for turret tops and dive as steep as possible. Dive at > 50 degrees, shoot at D400 and you can pop even a tigers turret.

Sooo you want perks for killing something that has virtually no defence against ya?   Even the building battlers have acks to deal with..

3 rounds each?  Maybe if you smoke 'em and let someone else finish them off.

On the other hand, I've hit a single panzer with 10+ 40mm hits (hit sprites every time) and still not smoked either engine or turret.

I've popped a PZ with 1 round (from each gun) in a hurriD...  was quite pleased when it happened..  

1st shot scored the kill but I didn't expect it so the next rounds were wasted.
