Has this been sorted out yet? Suffice to say, players who cannot be killed are something of a nuisance.
-
I sent in my film from last night of the T-34 that absorbed about 50
88mm rounds in the flank from >800. He did smoke after the 12th hit,
but could still move and fire after I exhausted my entire ammo load.
I estimated 50 hits from my tiger alone, and the player involved said he
thought something was weird as well. Very interesting bug.
-
I spawned a Tiger as you logged, parked about 25yds off his six, and fired another 40 some odd APs into him. Got lots of film, I just can't get it uploaded to email it in. If they got yours, that'll save me some trouble.
-
Oh yeah...I don't think it was this same occasion, but once this guy was in a panzer, I in a T34, and he took all of my HVAPs, and all of my AP rounds, and someone else smoked his turret...
-
I've seen this happen on a few occasions with ostwinds. The ostwind was able to soak up about 30 tons of ord and not die. He was tracked, his turret was out, eventually everyone stopped attacking him until he ditched.
-
once i seen an osti like that, i was at a town map room in a M-3 and just took the base when this osti shows up, the 2 flaks are shooting at him and and he rolls right by like he doesnt even care that im there, his turret gets knocked out and then tracked on both sides, 5 or 6 planes are dropping the left over ords on him and shooting at him, hies sitting in a giant crater and then he just disappeared guess he towerd out.
hit an M-3 twice in the driver side door with a panzer at close range once, another M-3 at a camp site was distracting all of us by driving around and i unloaded the pintal gun on him and so did a few otheres there and he just drove off with no damage.
on the other hand ive had 2 panzers that were hard to kill, once overlooking a town and getting shot up by fighters the other time i remember well was when i was defending a VB from incoming tanks and i was being shot at by a few 110's. they shot off my pintal so i kept firing at the tanks and then i got tracked on one side and then the other side, think i might of been sitting in a crator dont remember, wish i could get those more often but nowdays seems like a single 50cal round takes my panzer to its death.
-
Little different question, basically same topic. How come I can empty a soft gun on a tank; panzer or T-34 and not even track it? Rounds seem to just bounce off.

Bad aim?

Strangely enough, it seems as though the T34 causes this problem a lot. I've been on both sides of this issue before. I was once in a T34 and had 5 other guys shotting dead at me, along with the field guns, and not a single thing happened...it was really strange. Lol...I might have been that T34 in Rino's story.
-
sometime a i hit panzars from 24 and when the rounds come in they bounce off him and when his round come in they dont bounce off they go in and kill me

Had a similar problem but not with tanks. Me and a squaddie were protecting a base that was under CV attack, we got bored of being vulched so took off from a neighbouring base me in lancs and him in b-24's we got over the target and dropped bombs i hit it once on the very tip end of the deck (didn't expect to sink it) but my squaddie dropped all but one of his bombs squarely on the deck (getting two planes taking off). We then went to land and upped B-25H's to finish the job. I took more ord but my squaddie just took the 75mm. Again we both hit it on numerous occasions but were shot down by a 5 inch gunner. In the end, after upping twice more I think we got it. The thing is if I can remember correctly we dropped a total of just over 15,000lb's of ord (not including countless H.E shells). Can the CV self-repair over time as that is the only explanation I can come up with.
P.S sorry for the long report :)

Yes, the CV does repair it self over time, just like a base.

Dont CV's have a hardness of around 26,000 lbs?

According to the trainers page it's 8K for a "primary ship" 2K for all others.
I will assume the CV is a primary ship. Don't know about the cruiser..
-
i belive the carrier is 8k bombs
cruiser is six or four
other ships are 2k
-
I have watched as some guy drops on a cv then gets another plane, drops again and again 2000lbs. at a time, not realizing it is repairing itself the whole time he is gone!

if you know anything about the Russian T34 you will know the Russians put its armour at a slope (so the rounds would deflect off it more).

If YOU know anything about the T-34 you would realize that sloped
armor doesn't deflect every round, nor does the extra armor thickness
keep an 88 from penetrating. Since you weren't there, I will enlighten
you about the situation.
I had 92 88mm AP rounds, I missed maybe 12 times. I saw about
50 large sprites and approximately 30 rounds bounce..mostly off the
mantlet as I was trying to walk the hits between the hull and the turret.
When even the target vehicle driver notices something wrong, it might
behoove you to pay closer attention before spouting off, citing your vast
expertise acquired by watching the History Channel about our lack of
knowledge.
