Or maybe you can check your flux capacitor.  Sometimes that get's lose and will screw up your aim.

Maybe his Plutonium ran out.  Just rip off some Libyans :aok.

1 shot every time.
Yup thats conclusive.
but I have that happen to me every time I'm in a GV. Take 4 shots to kill a M4 but 1 M4 shot kills my Panzer.

This goes hand and hand with when you shoot at an airplane , tons of lead hitting him and he flies like nothing hit him.  Then other times, KABOOM in a nano second.

Collision / prediction code needs work imo.

I think it has something to do with lag not necessarly the tanks.... Some nights I can shoot a pazer point blank in the side with m4 and nothing shoot again and nothing then one shot and im dead. One shot is the way it should be  but dang I shot twice.  Also I like the ones were u shoot them one time  then just before your gun reloads they fire then they die as the bullet is in the air then you die...  so the one shot was placed in the right spot but lag gives them at least a few seconds to fire back

All I can say is the Wirbles are built too tough.  I hit one 7 times one night without killing it.  Then someone bombed it and I got an assist even though I had him smoking.

BP... I can show you how to aim if you'de like  :D
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

What you all are failing to realize is that it depends where you hit a tank...you can shoot a tank 100 times in the same place, but if their is nothing but metal to hit nothing will happen. I am not sure how HTC models the tanks, but im guessing if you dont hit the gas tank or ammo compartment in the tank nothing will happen...why? because metal doesnt make a tank blow up. Which explains why you can shoot the guy 15 times and he kills you in 1... OMG HackeR!?!

no, grow up...first of all its a game, calm down,
second learn where to hit a tank
third your not the only guy who has had this happen to you

I got another one. Was GVing in a panzer the other day and a WW upped. I fired and hit him in the turret, nothing, not even smoking. Yes I was using AP. Again, nothing. 7 shots later (No exageration) he drove through me, then reversed. I fired Point blank range for the 3rd time at the turret, nothing. I aim at his Chassais, kill. 8 shots to the turret and I dont even smoke him! Something wrong there!

I think the WWs you people are mentioning are Doc, and the Panzers (Libyans) want their Plutonium back.  Oh god they found you, i don't know how but they did. Run Marty!


Yes i love the BttF movies. :aok
