What i really love is when im in a tank shooting at another tank when all of a sudden some guy swoops in from the heavens to strafe a tank theres no way he could kill! I just usually stop shooting till the strafer either lands or gets dead! Dont like givin kills away LOL! The question arises, Why were you strafing the pintel gun of a hvy armoured tank in the first place? You cant kill the tank with a typhie (unless u have ord). You would just be basicly stealing a kill, unless it was an m3 m16 251 or m8. Just my opinion and we all know what opinions smell like  :D

here we go, someone smacks the typhoon.......  OK, thanks for following in line with the original question and contributing to the answering of a question.  Appreciate you using your platinum status to help fellow players answer a question.  I prostrate myself before you almightiness.  Dweeb. 

Aim could be an issue, although a stream of 50-100 20mms IVO a tank should hit something, especially when you see the ricochets.  So, reality is I need to work on my aim.  I am sure no one else in the game has noticed, albeit platinum level dweebs, the difficultly in shooting out the pintle gun on a tank. Especially relative to the volume of bullets and that humans manning the things were not armored, except for their won't stop a 7.62mm and higher helmet.   

And shuffler go find some kid in MA to haze.  If you have a valid comment which contributes to the post, post it.  Otherwise can it. 


Go to the TA and get some assistance. You can learn a lot about aiming and flying in there.
Oh and when you post a whine you'll get all kinds of answers.

Do not strafe tanks in a fighter unless you absolutely have to.  Drop a bomb on the offending tank if you can before going to guns.  As a fairly experienced GV'er I will tell you that I pick up a lot of kills from folks who think they can strafe down a vehicle that only has a .30/.50 cal MG that they can bring to bear on target.  If you want to kill GV's up the IL-2.

He does not need assistance oh-almighty(mouthy)shuffler, he was pointing out that the "hardness" of pintle guns should be dependant on the TC manning it.  You completely missed the point in an effort to deride him.  to top it off, you felt compelled to come back & defend your bashing.  You get +1 for suggesting the TA though.

I think we call all agree that pintle guns are a little "tough" to knock-off in general.

When your unable to carry your side of a discussion start calling names.

FAIL!


If he was able to hit the gun it would be knocked out. That is the basic problem.... not the hardness of said gun.

But too many in this game do not want to learn. They would rather complain.

The pintle gun can be destroyed. Maybe your aim is not as good as you thought?

I can confirm this. Happens to me all the time.


Then again. Seems to me a guy name Audy Murphy did fairly well using a pintle
