So how do you kill yourself in a tank besides rolling over.....?

The geometry of the tank turret has the barrel as a solid object to decrease how many polygons are rendered. If you fired from an origin inside or behind the barrel in this game (without any major model overhaul) the shot would kill your turret and never leave the barrel. This is how I've heard it described before.

However, you can also contradict that point with another one; you cannot hit the barrel of a tank with any kind of weapon.


By shooting yourself, Sketch. It's in the geometry if the point where the shell originates changes. :D But the second point in the quote is valid as well.

How can you shoot yourself in a GV though, that is all I am asking.  I understand the point of where if you fire and the round begins at the back of the barrek your shooting yourself technicaly, BUt I am wonder how you do it now...  :confused:

Ive tried this.....

Up an osti, drive to tower. Theres a nice spot where the osti just about manages to fit in.....aim up and fire. Watch the shell ricochet back to you and kill your turret....

You currently can't. I'm talking about if the shell originated at the back of the barrel. Currently it originates from the tip.

I've also done this to friendlies who, after repeated requests, refuse to turn off their engines.

It infuriates them.  :lol


I know how to counter this:noid

If you've got an enemy tank 'parked' inside your vehicle, could you not rotate the turret to the rear then pull away and fire before the guy got inside you again?

Hmmm - what do you get if you cross an Ostwind and a Tiger?

Toad, I agree with you entirely, stop that antimatter GV gayness!
I was in a panzer and had an osti hide inside me, I could not see anthing
nor could I return fire. Oh and I hear there is an extra gay bug to where if you phased your uber gay inviso-osti through a tank you can "aim" into his driver and kill the driver. I have not had that happen to me yet, just heard about it.
