No they don't.

Good old "I thought I was shot in front but was actually side".

I checked PR tracker and it wasn't a side hit, we were perfectly facing eachother. I'll provide BR footage later on, and if that doesn't work I'll show PR tracker.

Liam claimed he shot us in the 'tracks' not sure how that works. We'll see ;)

PR devs never implemented the angle system of FH2 so anything that grazes side or top is doing full extra damage.

It was a bit inconsistent with HAT spinning around so I tested it with LAT, same number of shots to kill on side of MBT at any angle.

(that needs to be fixed)

It's not as simple as that.

The T72 was much higher positioned than the bradley and the TOW hit the front part of the turret.
But Vista will post the vid later anyways.

No matter how many time I say it, it doesn't seem to get through.
I hit your tank in the rear track area.

We were not "perfectly" facing each other. I know this because I saw and aimed at your rear track.

I think POV should hold a bootcamp on facing front armour to prevent things like this happening in future.


EDIT: Alon-sama calculated that you were facing 4 degrees off pointing straight at me from the tracker.

One pixel to the left and he would've missed, one pixel to the right and we would've survived. Damn irishman luck.

I still don't understand how a tank (which is supposed to be a heavily armoured vehicle) can die so easily... Nice armour model

Oh well

almost all modern atgm are tandem, they defeat era and should cut through the t72s armour like butter.

current model is unrealistic and shit for gameplay (stationary atgms are laughable)
