Did you happen to be in an M8 shooting at a Tiger?

Maybe ask for help. Maybe practice a bit.  You obviously still fly the planes; did you start out always shooting down the opponent with your first volley?  Did you never get shot down?  Instead of whining and saying GV's are broken, if you have any interest in them at all, learn them instead of crying about your own suckage.  Otherwise, just quietly remain in your airplane.

And I could care less what ANYONE thinks...

If so, you wouldn't have made a thread about it  :)

It is a quite a bit hit and miss lately...I ask though  is it a problem when it happens the other way ??   The new will be here soon. I'm sure there have been some fixes as work seems to have been on GV's this time too... patience

I suck in GV's but even I can kill with a single shot. It all has to do with the angles. So many people jump into GVs and think its just point and shoot. Sure if you find a good place to camp and you start hitting those one shot kills you have a good angle and are as happy as a pig in...well you know what  :P But the rest of the time it's a bit more difficult. Practice,Practice,Practice, and you'll get there.

Here is some logic i use, if it ricochets i might want to aim at a different point of the tank or change my angle to the enemy instead of lobbing 14 more shots off the same place.

Alot of it depends on the postion of your Hull in respect to the other persons firing position, learning to use the Tanks Armor's angles helps alot and of course finding a Hull down postion wouldnt hurt either, but with the terrians we have there's not alot of hull down spots in the terrian.  Hull Down is when you can place your tank behind like small berms, ditch's and other objects, to help protect your tank better like they did during battles in the war, but what alot of people have already said once you learn each tank, you'll know where to hit and where not to, it can be fun to GV

My personal tactic on the rare occasions I go GVing is to take an M-8, get up nice and close, and pop off as many shots as necessary to my opponent.  As a general rule, I stay on the move as much as possible.

Are you using theproper ammo for the job? HE rounds are not ferry effective against a tank compared to AP rounds

I would like to see a little more realism in the armored vehicles when it comes to being hit. For example, if a tank took a hit an no damage I would expect the tank to jump a little and shake up the tank operators inside. The best description that comes to mind would be a brown-out, instead of a black-out.

I can remember once shooting a tiger tank with damaged tracks and turrent using a field soft ack gun. I was less then 100 yards from the tiger and hit it 100-200 times. I finally gave up and towered.

ack gun = HE round, not AP.

There is a right way and a wrong way to approach things on the bulletin board.  This thread is a shining example of the wrong way to do it.
