GV'ers who drive with their turret facing backwards
« on: June 18, 2020, 05:10:35 PM »
I will not mention any names but there are several GV'ers now who drive from the spawn over to the battlefield with their turret facing the wrong way.
I do not believe this was historically accurate and these players should cease and desist to stop purportedly illegal activity.

There must be a good reason to flout the rules so recklessly.

 :rofl

Thanks for the tip.  :aok

I just did some practicing in the MA to a camped spawn point. After 3 deaths I left as I only saw the guy once the whole time.

I'm sure I'll die plenty in there next time too, but maybe I'll have a better chance now.  :)

I think tank's driving with their turret's facing backwards, is when they are in Bazarro World. I think.

Driving in a ww2 tanks with the rear front is close to suicide, it's armor is at it's weakest  there (except a few brittish and french early tanks), You also have problems using your normal -10 depession of gun you want to use to hide you hull.

Not true, when it's backwards the turrests rear armour goes in the same direction as the shell... like a plan on a conveyor belt... so it's effectively thicker.

I found I went faster each time I fired a round.... the unfortunate thing is when I got to where I was...Faster I might add...I had no rounds left to fight with...

My next plan is to drop some sups at a town.. and rocket boost from the spawn to the town in my M4...

I have been thinking about challenging you to a rocket race with M-4's. That should be a hoot.   :rofl :rofl :rofl

But, as you mentioned.................... ............................. .... put out lots of supps.
