thats just dumb then. So if you're hitting the frontal armor of a tiger at 20degrees, then its the same thickness as it is at 90degrees (head on)?

Bushlt is hands down the best player in the game so I don't see how this would be out of the ordinary.

Check this Tank thread The youtube video is still up, and Hitech says it's pretty much our tanks are done as well.

Rumble,

This game is all about competition, unfortunately a lot of people believe that means to have the "bestest" score, or land the biggest number of kills. Were as the competition should be on the fight whether thats in a plane a GV or a mission grabbing a base.

Like the player that is currently #1 in the Mid-War arena?

Yes, I've seen the video before Fugitive. And I don't buy that our damage model takes into account the effect angling the armor has on the thickness. Maybe as far as the likelyhood of a ricochet, but not a chance in hell a T-34 could get one-shot-kill on a panzer's side armor angled at probably 20 degrees from 1500yds out if it modled how thick the armor was at a certian angle.

obviously you know more about how the game is programmed than the guy who programmed it.  :rolleyes:

Why would Hitech lie? If his damage model isn't as good as those then "everybody" will leave? I don't think so.

IDK what he meant by the damage model taking into account the angle of the armor. Maybe he meant as far as the likelyhood of a ricochet, but maybe I'm just being paranoid.

I give this thread a 6.5.
It took 2.5 pages to become a purse fight.
Back in the old days....1.5 pages was pushing the envelope.
