Title: Please Don't Fix the Jeep Bug!
Post by: Mano on September 08, 2011, 01:16:35 PM
I think you should leave the bug alone and let everyone that wants to exploit it go ahead and do it.
It adds more fun to GV'ing. The first time I noticed this bug,  a guy pulled up behind me with a jeep, stopped..... then drove his
jeep and parked inside my tank............my reaction was  "WT%" ! I sat there thinking he was no threat until the machine gun
blew up my tank....LOL. Guys are even attempting it with M-3's. Coondog tried it with an M-3.........I sprayed him with my
machine.......when he attempted to get away........I blew his arse up LOL.
Guys sneaking around in jeeps and M-3's does add something to the game and it keeps those spawn campers sharp as they
have something else to watch out for LOL.

I have yet to see a jeep or whatever try to get inside my tank.  I think it's more like the il2, f3 and ghi.  just because one guy doesnt it, it doesnt mean we gonna have hundreds of players running around in jeeps trying to kill tanks.

Tried it a couple of times myself after reading about it. Even tried it off line: parked the jeep inside a tank where I could see the entire inside of the tank and emptied the jeep Mg but nothing ever happened

its possible you can do it with any pintel gun really as long as your smaller then the tank your shooting ive done it to a t34 in a wirble with the hull gun..

but i dont see it being a "normal thing" i mean tank vs tank... ur still better off in a tank as a good tank player will kill you with the hull mg's or a HE round before u get close enough i mean its not like its a tiger doing 90mph...so i think its fine the way it is and should simply stay...do to the fact its not going to effect anyone enough to matter unless somone loses a king tiger or 2..in which case if your in a KT and you get killed by a jeep as funny as that would be i dont think you should be in a KT....

To kill a tank with the Jeep Pintle you have to move the gun around and listen for that tearing
metal sound.......if you hear that.....you are doing it correctly. It will blow up shortly.
If the tank moves.....he can use his machine gun to kill your jeep.....so you have to
stay inside the tank.

Good hunting!

Right, because it takes some player 3 months to build up the GV perks to take out a King Tiger, master of the
battlefield, only to lose it to some sod in a jeep.

That's fair, right?

Right.

I would say enjoy your jeep kills while you can. Next patch most likely will be fixed.

Semp, you forget - I run Rat-Pack-Attack missions with just jeeps to kill tanks in a gv battle - may not be hundreds - but still a swarm  :joystick: :neener: :rock :x

I was bored the other day  and was  going to suggest on 200  to  have Jeepageddon '11 somewhere  just  a jeep only battle but then  I stopped smoking crack and thought better of it.

If you are in a jeep, you are at the bottom of the totem pole of perks.......you kill a perked tank and that gives you allot of perks (ie. a Tiger or Tiger II).

It is the same for the pt boat, if you kill a perked F4U, you may get 7 or 8 perk points per kill, even if you don't land the kill. No kidding. After you learn to use that rear
gun (40mm), 6, 7,8 kill sorties start to happen. The shells are heavier and drop off sooner......or seems that is the way it is modeled. You get used to aiming it.

 :salute

btw I gotta try one of Mr Crabby's Rat Patrol Raids    :D

yeah but the trick is to actually get a kill in one as most guys wont risk a perked plane to vulch a ptboat.  out of every 100 sorties 90% end up with no kills.

Driving a jeep up inside a tank is funny as crap, not to kill them, but to just see the reaction from the tank, turret making loops looking around for that jeep that he hears, moves 10 feet forward only to see the jeep kick it into 1 and drive up his arse and see the whhhiiiinnneee on 200 :rofl i do see a problem with the M8 though as i set a speed record in an m8 and was scared out of my mind, i was like "WTF OMG whats happening?!?!"  :O as i go careening downhill at 153mph and hit a tree end up 300 feet in the air and land upside down...  :cry  :uhoh  :huh can someone please explain why this happend? i felt like a hotwheels car on one of those loopy orange plastic tracks  :rofl
