i have been using tanks alot more now and i have noticed that the us tank can only take one shot then it is down but the mec tank can take 3 and still drive around. this is really unfair and i think others would agree.

unfair ? reality is FUN


but yeah , is unrealistic

m1a2 should be more powerfull than t90s , but t90s need at-11s and a faster reload than m1a2s.

The T90 also has a one-shot. Even multiple ones I think.
It's your aiming I quess.

the arbra atm has much more torque for gettin up hills and stuff compare to te t-90

compare them on somit like kasharn desert goin up the mountains, it alot easier for m1's ;) so its kinda balanced in that retaded way :D

It also depends where you shoot the tank.

sure the mec tank has a one shot spot but the m1 has a bigger one.

side skirts/back = 2 shots to drop a fully healed tank.

i've shot unmanned abrams before in what looks to be the smoke despensers on the turret, and had the turret pop off... so try it.. this was back on Proving grounds.

The M1 does indeed have more/bigger 1 hit spots than the T-90 and Type-99, however, its EA's model/hitbox set up, so I'm not sure it can be changed without a new model.

Without weak spots they're all the same (4 SABOT to the front, 2 to the rear/sides) but the M1s larger area of weakspots does make them more likely to suffer from 1 hit kills.

Yeah, the T90 is actually smaller than the Abrams - means you can hide more effectively

Yeah I was the T-90 a couple days ago on Zatar wetlands. I killed two M1A2's even though I was hit 3 times in the turret and I just shot them once; they even got in the first shot. I think this needs looking at.

umm in 0.5 the weirdest thing happened to me. i was driving a T90 and as i was driving i faced a M1A2 and it shot me on the front part of the tank and killed me inside the tank (in driver's sit). is it actualy posible to do that!? has anyone else experienced it before?!

Plus the whole point is the mod isn't supposed to be pussyfooted when it comes to something dominance over something else. Although from what people have said it's not really how it should be at the moment.

well i would be ok if the m1 would get i hit sometimes but it is every time.

one thing that everybody knows is that the M1 is the best tank in the world right now,but in a videogame and especially a online one things have to be equal,one thing that i found b*llshit that it takes 2 c4's and a heavy AT round to knock a m1 tank out from the back...i witnessed that yesterday.

HEAT rounds do that...I shot one in front of the tank and it killed me, but didn't harm the tank...

Well, if this is true, then we have a serious issue here..I thought, the armor stops the explosions?

Wrong Challanger 2 is the best tank in the world we have better armor, better crews and rifiling insted of smooth bore, thus making it more acurate!

Eat that yank!
