usually i pick the tiger. but sumtimes panzer kill me because it have a faster turret turning advantage( shot me in the back, the coward!,lol). my advice is use tigers and panzer in w/e situation, doesn't matter.

P.S. panzer have a 75mm cannon, still good enough. you could use the t34 cuz it have a 76mm.

Tiger has more armor, and a bigger punch with its gun.

t34 gun is much weaker than the 75mm on the panzer, despite being a wider round. infact a t34 has no chance against the tiger, at all...

Depends on the situation:

Tiger
Pros: Heaviest Armor (though 1 lucky hit can knock you out of action), Largest Gun
Cons: Slow Traverse of Gun, Cost Perk Points to Use (which will be lost with loss of tank).

Panzer
Pros: Has cupola gun that T-34 doesn't, Free to use if low on perk points/good chance you will be killed, includes smoke rounds (can be handy to have), gun *can* knock out Tiger turret up close with 1 hit.
Cons: Weaker Armor and Gun than Tiger

T-34
Pros: Fastest Tank in the Game, decent gun (though slow reload)
Cons: No cupola gun, not all that strong a tank if hit right.


T-34 *can* take a Tiger, up close, but you have to keep moving,.... target the turret first, then try to stay behind it to kill it from it's 6 position.  Better if you have some obstacles to take advantage off.

we always aim for the track or wat tedrbr said, from 6' position up close and the turret. or use it as an escort for M3,M8,M16,osti maybe.

Panzer, Tigers pop after 1 to 2 well placed rounds.   You get more perks too.

I prefer the T-34, it has speed for manuvering, and with 1 well placed shot it will kill tiger or panzer.

1.Turn off Vehicle skins.

2.Make sure you have someone  in a M-3 with supplies.( a T-34 normally takes 12 seconds too load the main gun, by having supplies dropped & putting your mouse pointer in the upper left hand corner of your screen.Everytime you fire a shot, left click, hit #2 on the keyboard, zoom again & fire.By doing this the T-34 will fire every 3 -4 seconds.)

3.The german cross on the right side of the tiger tank just above the track, aim for that spot it's a 1 shot 1 kill.

4.The left side of the tiger tank's turrent, just behind the numbers is a 1 shot 1 kill.

If you hit a panzer from close range, 1 shot too a panzer's turrent & they are done.

Don't get me wrong the T-34 has it's setbacks  as well, like it won't climb hills, it has very weak armour on it's turrent, and no pintle gun on top, but the commander view the T-34 has is very good for spotting tanks.

Or more accurately: A Tiger is A Panzer on Steroids, wearing Plate Mail,  carrying a Bigger Stick, and looking for a Fight.  A King Tiger is it's older brother, just out of prison.

So your saying you can kill a tiger while in a T-34 this way.

I have tried off line, at point blank range and have yet found a way to do it.

Thats the best way to do it so far.Or until they release the other version of the T-34, but then everyone would cry about that too.

Keep an eye out in that slow turrent turner.

It took me 3 shots from a t34 on a tiger at point blank just to track it and in turn he killed me. You truly need a miricle shot in t34 to whack a tiger. There was a tiger killer version of t34 which I wish was included in game.

More armor in game would spark alot more interest and create new tactics. Shermans,Panthers anything would help the lack of perked gv anything is kinda a turnoff. A Panzer can compete with a Tiger but to see something that can somewhat trade blows would be cool.

I would love to see a rocket artillery truck or two in game. Or a C47 that drops a anti tank crew.

Sweet2th, that is a very dumb idea to be spreading.  Keep your game exploits to yourself, or at least with HTC.

I think the topic answered:

Tiger, costs perks, big long range gun, slow traversing turret, much armor (but close in hits, or lots of ord dropped on it can kill it).  Wears a "kill me" icon when it spawns.

Panzer, free to use, smaller gun, decent traverse, speed, ok armor.  Up close (real close in relation to Tiger's reach) a Panzer can take out turret or engine on Tiger with 1 well placed round. Will earn you more perks than Tiger.

All comes down to perks for most GVr's:
If you've got perks to spend, and like the Tiger, take it.
If you don't want to risk perks, or don't have them, take a Panzer.
What can you afford to risk in the perk department?
