Title: the panther tank
Post by: lunatic1 on December 12, 2010, 02:59:55 PM
will the 3 sherman tanks in this game and both t-34's and the m8 be able to kill the panther with 1 shot,and will it take 4 or 5 shots from a panther to kill the shermans and m8 and t-34-s and wirbles does,you might as well leave it out of the game and just use the currant panzer we have now.i see enough panzer rounds bouncing off these tanks as it is.right now the panzer V is the weakest tank in this game.

You clearly do not know........ What you speak of regarding the Panther.



EDIT:  The T34/76 is the weakest tank in the game actually.......  Go offline and try to kill a Tiger with it.  It is impossible from the front, takes 37 point blank hits from the side, and maybe 4 - 12 from the rear......2 or 3 if you hit the sweet spot.

U are a lunatic, every tank can be killed in 1 shot or it can 7 shots depends where u hit him. FYI the panther has a high velocity gun like the m476w

No Chit.... Really?  Reread what I said and tell me if you understand please.  I really hope you can keep pace.

right now the panzer V is the weakest tank in this game.

You stated something.... And I told you you were wrong...... Nothing more.  

And since you think the Panzer is the weakest, I'd say #1, you can't aim, and #2 you haven't driven every armor.  

Should I continue?  Okay... I'll repeat....

And if it takes more than 2 hits to kill the sherman from either front or side, I will be insanely mad at HTC. The panther in real life was insane, probably second best of the Tiger. This should be the M476's new challenge  :aok

The Panzer isn't weakest tank in game. Not even remotely.

T34-76 isnt worth the metal its made of in this game.

But as far as unperked rides go Panzer owns m4-75


Succesions of tanks in AH

1Tiger
2Possibly Panther now
3Firefly
4M4a376
5T34-85
6Panzer
7M4-75
8M8
9T34-76

Yes M8 is much better than t34-76

Once again, people are not looking at the BIG picture when comparing tanks.  Stop and think about **all** the attributes of a tank before a broad stroke of the "good/better/best" paint brush is applied. There really is no such thing as the "best" tank. Sure, the Tiger is one tough nut, but it has multiple faults (painfully slow turret traverse is #1, and a slow reload time is #2, imo).  The Panther will have its faults too, have no fear.

A tank can not be judged on a single merit.    

 The only real disadvantage the Pzr IV has vs the M4/76mm is a wee bit slower reload time and 1 less MG.  Otherwise, armor, speed, main gun, and turret traverse are all similar.

The T34/76mm has the worst AP performance beyond 1000 yards (inside 1000 yards the HVAP is quite formidable) for a tank in the game (and the slowest reload at that), but yet it is fast at 35mph and well armored.    

So pick your poison.  

Define your mission, pick your tank, and accept responsibility for your success or failure.

EDIT: First, the M8 is not a tank.  It is an armored car.  The 37mm main gun is good vs soft targets only.  Its speed is to be admired, but beyond that the odds are stacked against it in all ways capable vs a tank.

You shouldn't stay put in the t34/76, I run it through the spawns all the time.  I shoot while on the move, and do really well most of the time.

Tiger has no real weakness if you keep it at the right range IE 2500Yards+  at that range you don't have to turn your gun much to cover large area and your really hard to kill

I could be wrong, but I think the OP's logic is:

Panzer = 75mm gun
Panther = 75mm gun

Now, any one who had done a teeny, tiny bit of research knows there is a biiig difference in the guns.

However, it's always easier to just type a whine instead.

Imagine if people still spoke face to face?

L/48 = Panzer IV

L/70 = Panther


HUGE difference in performance for these guns.
