marsunit Posted February 27, 2001 Share Posted February 27, 2001 with all the great sound and ground explosion effects,why don't we have vehicles exploding or a body of a troop vaporizing off the map when a shell gets a direct hit on him or it? Maybe I havn't played enough yet:but I seem to see a pattern of the old tilted /knocked out vehicle.that's okay a majority of the time but once in awhile you'de like to see a tank turret xeplode like a roman candle.

Clubfoot Posted February 27, 2001 Share Posted February 27, 2001 You've not seen a really devestating vehicle explosion yet? When you do, hope the vehicle is not yours. It's even more painful when your .50cal and 'zook team's are embarked upon said Roman candle. Clubfoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsunit Posted February 27, 2001 Author Share Posted February 27, 2001 well....what was it that took your vehicle out so spectacularly???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfoot Posted February 28, 2001 Share Posted February 28, 2001 My boys were mounted on a Sherman 76 when it took a round from a German 88. Quite a light show. But to be honest, I've seen it many times with many assorted vehicle/weapon combinations. Clubfoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaba Posted February 28, 2001 Share Posted February 28, 2001 Collateral Damage -- definately... My first experience with tanks was taking on a friend in the second scenario of the demo version. I knew that he had an anti-tank gun up in a bunker on the hill so I maneuvered my Shermans to my far right flank. My two tanks, while avoiding LOS of the anti-tank gun (75mm) got a little bit too close to the woods and a lone Panzerschrek unit took out both tanks from about 120m away (nice shots). My first tank exploded into flames instantly killing the bazooka team that was hitching a ride on it. My second tank faired slightly better being only knocked out and the MG team that was on the back got off an avenged the death of the tanks on the Panzershrek...

marsunit Posted February 28, 2001 Author Share Posted February 28, 2001 Yes,yaba...I've had plenty of those situations as well,where one of my(or the enemy) vehicles gets lit up and burns.But i'm talking about tank turret decapitating shots where the turret blows skyhigh and lands near or somewhere else on the map.Or totally blownout vehicles or remnants of squads or crews unlucky enough too have a 105 shell score a direct hit on thier position and be vaporized off the map completely?!! ------------------ "Git thar firstest with the mostest" :Nathan Bedford Forrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
