Umm...stay on topic, please.

Yes, because the cover of a model box should be used to determine whether or not something is rendered correctly.

Sig worthy

They aren't moving too slowly. As others have already said, low-crawling truly is slow and tiring - even more so if you're trying to move a crew-served weapon at the same time.

This issue also popped up with Chris's Shermans during his last Twitch broadcast.

Well, remember it was Kettler who created this topic, which means one should automatically be highly skeptical of the information presented.

Please have a look at the other (identical) topic. There was no need to create another topic like this when the other one was created less than a week ago.

Yes

Apparently, the Australians also used it in the direct fire role in the Pacific:

I wouldn't bother with trying to make the game look like the Pacific. There's far too many differences to make it look right.

No, it's not something coded into the game.

Have save file?

A concrete Department of Defense?

It's the keyboard controls, and it's discussed in detail in one of the manuals that comes with the game.

It's been put into the bug tracker to be changed.

Did you read the rest of this topic?

Adolescence can be an awful thing.

More or less. In particular, I was referring to Matt Damon's line about P-51's being tank-busters. I remember almost falling out of my chair in laughter when I heard that quote.

What, this isn't real? https://youtu.be/Lv-67DFlOsM?t=20s

Well, that's actually modeled correctly. The Garand could not fire in semi-auto when fitted with a grenade launcher.

"Third Reich" and "respect" - two terms that should never be joined together.

BLSTK, get a life already.

If it was that bleedin' easy to take out a tank with .50 cal/12.7 mm weapons, the Soviets would have simply fitted a pair of UBKs to the wings of their Il-2s and then told their pilots to simply skip the rounds off the ground when attacking tanks. But, that's not what happened.

If you seriously think that a .50cal round is going to have enough energy to penetrate the belly of a tank after skipping off the ground, then this conversation is hopeless. ...a forum poster who does know a thing or two about weapon ballistics and who was an armorer during his time in the military. No kidding.

We are all very aware of the power of the .50 BMG, but that still does not mean it could kill a Tiger by means of being ricocheted up into the tank's belly. JonS is right - the idea is utter nonsense.
