t-34 against t-34 DOES NOT WORK!!!!

[Karnak]

The T-34's armor seems somewhat over modeled. It was very effective against the early German 37 mm and 50 mm AT guns, but not against a 75+ mm class weapon. The front glacis plate on the T-34/76 was only 45 mm thick. By comparison the contemporary M4 Sherman had a 51 mm plate.

The T-34's armor is very sloped, this greatly increaes the effectiveness for a given thickness.  The T-34 seems just about as tough as it ought to be.

Maybe you just suck.

Again, maybe you just suck.

are there cheat codes for the game??????

No. Why would there be? It is a MMO. What would be gained from giving one player an advantage over the rest of the player base?

The difference in slope is less than 5 degrees.

Nah,just whine codes.

Thr M4 was a very tough tank to kill when taken head on. The problems it faced were a combination of of its high profile and low velocity gun. The gun tube dictated tactics that forced the Sherman to close within 1000M vs even PZIII/IV and 500M vs Panthers etc. This was obviously difficult and the high profile sure didn't help. German tactical doctrines that often placed high velocity anti-tank guns in forward positions compounded the problems.

Is the Sherman VC as tough as the T-34 in-game?

From the front and top I'd say it is close.  From any other angle nope.

I know PH personally and can assure you he does not cheat. I would suggest a couple of things:

1) You owe PH an apology.

2) Read the forum rules before you post in the forums. You have violated a specific rule here. 

[Die Hard]

Then it must be the T-34's gun that is modeled too weak. It should be a little better than the U.S. 75 mm in performance, and a 75 mm M4 would have no problem killing another M4 front quarter.

I don't feel like talking to PH.

I did not break any rules, i said i think PH does. Maybe you should look at rule 7 again.

Mayhap when you return to school next month you will work on reading comprehension re: rules

From the sticky at the top of every forum:

"a 75 mm M4 would have no problem killing another M4 front quarter."

Not correct. The 75mm APC round was capable of @90mm at 500 yards, and the hull front afforded about the same protection, in fact a bit more than that. Front quarter, often would not have resulted in a penetration, especially at farther ranges. A Firefly vs a Firefly? they would have no problem killing each other front quarter, even out to 2000 yards, but that is entirely a different circumstance.

Same goes for the T-34/76, for the exact same reason. The gun can just penetrate another T-34 at 500 yards from a dead on shot. Armor front hull is @90mm protection, with the APC round being able to do @100mm.  Any more angle, or farther range, would very likely not go through. Its not a 75L/43, or a 17 Pounder, and has nowhere near the same power.  Using HVAP will obviously help, but even that is no guarantee.

The fact many do not go through indicates both gun, and armor, are modelled correctly, and maybe some hard looking at the gun and armor would be helpfull before the usual assumptions that something is over, or under modelled, which seems to be the 1st thing many do. You cannot expect every round to go through, even if statistically the gun is capable.

Why? Because you don't want to admit you are wrong? Even if you don't feel like it, you have to suck it up, and do what is required of you, as you are playing with the big kids now.
