Panther's can fire upside down.
« on: June 17, 2012, 06:15:29 PM »
HTC, got killed by a panther upside down today(not embarrassed to say that : ) ). Pretty sure if a tank flips over, all a real crew would do is get out.....let alone be able to aim and fire the main gun.

I would think the body of the tank would start rotating if they did try turning the turret.

I have film if it is needed to fix bug.

It's been a bug for years, turrets need to be damaged if a tank flips over and ends up on its turret.

On the modern battlefield, if a vehicle of any kind flips you are most likely going to have casualty's....pretty sure the chances of it were higher back then.

That ought to be fixed, right after fixing the bug where the tanks flip over when they hit a shrub.  :P :lol  :devil

Looking at screenshots when they both came out they look similar. Only real thing I can see that is different is on the sides. Me being upside down it probably did look like a panther. Wish it was, lost 96 perks being  in the tiger

Unless in film it shows up as panther. I don't view films so don't know if it shows actual tank name or not. Then I guess it would be a film view bug.

Your right it was a Tigr2, just remember the guy telling me he was sitting next to an upside down Pnthr.
