- Welcome to the bouncing simulator! I have to apologize for a few shots. I played this round at 5 a.m. local time and was very tired, so sometimes I might be a little quieter and miss the mark haha, this round was brutal. I didn't count, but we destroyed a lot of enemy tanks and guns. The dark snow layers don't look good in my opinion, the textures on these Foy and Haguenau layers just look terrible because of the lighting! Well it is how it is lol
I counted 2 Pershings, 5 Sherman Tanks, 2 AT Guns, 2 Light Tanks and 2 Trucks. Good job, that was fantastic!
Thanks for the list, it used to be normal when my friends were still playing and you had a well-rehearsed team. Today I have to play with randoms, which isn't always easy, but this crew was very good and of course you always need a bit of luck :)
FYI German tank optics are rangeable, you can range the gun just as a rifle. Values above the triangle are for AT rounds, while those below for MG34 and HEAT
I know but I never use it. It takes me too long. If I have a lot of time I use it but it's very rare. Some allied tanks can do that too :)
My first time playing and yea it takes you more time reading the scope to aim only in longe range and maybe ambushes
If you get down and understand how it works, it can come in handy in a pinch. Otherwise, free handing it is probably better.
Always the most intense tank matches. That ammo rack hit on the second Pershing was pure humiliation :D
:D
This driver really don't listen x)
That first shot was atrocious
Yes :D
the fact that you used APCR against the stuart when you still had APHE left is crazy
(also when shooting the side of the Jumbo you shoulda used APHE and preserve APCR for tougher targets)
@@GigaCat055 In real life yes but not ingame if you got enough APCR its ok and APCBC HE T is bugged with some tanks so if you use APCR you are always on the save side ;)
@@Tiger01 well, still wouldn't wanna waste my precious APCR on a little stuart, but ig you're right
@@GigaCat055 Yeah, but we knew there are just a few minutes left ;)
That first shot, LMAO. I had the exact same reaction, "What the F?"
;D
That driver was making me cringe
Man the gun is way too responsive. Feels like aiming a sniper rifle and not a tank gun.
@@kimjanek646 Depends on wich ammo typ you are using. Apcr is very stable with low bulletdrop but apbc has much more bulletdrop
@@Tiger01 I’m talking about the movement of the barrel and the aiming sight.
It’s just too rapid to be some hand cranked cannon 😄
That would be the case with some shoulder aimed 2pdr but for most guns you need to crank elevation and traverse wheels or hit the power traverse which often wasn’t very smooth in WW2.
There was already hydraulic in the tiger tanks the engine is turning the turret. They have to do it by hand when the engine is down or turned off ;)
@@Tiger01 The power traverse only works for turret traverse, elevation still requires turning a handwheel. The power traverse also accelerates and is only used to move the turret over a wide area. For aiming at a target the gunner only uses the handwheels.
@kimjanek646 I mean its still a game ;)
Thanks for the game boys. The dumbest thing I done as logi was to try destroying the 2nd pershing with AT gun from the hill. :D
But you distracted him from us. Thanks for that :D
Bros firing off APCR like its candy 😭
If you got enough it is candy ;)
That "Angry Jew" explains the whole domination lol.
I just noticed that now, some even call themselves Division Vikings or Das Reich oh man :D
😂😂😂😂
Tiger, have you already tried the new vehicles like Mader or Nashorn? At the moment there are a lot of new players and I always try to get into a tank squad that takes a Mader or something new but no chance. Everyone always takes the classic tanks but very nice video. The firefight with the Sherman Calliope was brutal haha
I have the same problem :D The mates with whom I always played Post Scriptum no longer play Squad 44, unfortunately that's why I always have to play with randoms and everyone always takes Panthers, Tigers or Shermans :D
@@Tiger01 You ever play with Vade?
@@tobykornreich2719 Yeah, i did long time ago :)
I wish they made it more realistic, because there is no way an APCR round from an 88mm wouldn't penetrate even the front armor of a sherman at such close ranges... It seems like they are going for unrealistic balance rather than full on realism, which sucks.
Has Post Scriptum been improved or degraded in terms of realism since it was bought by the Squad devs? I sure hope it maintained the good old full-on-realism style instead of becoming some arcady Squad-like game. Thanks for the video.
By the way, would love to play with you! I would like to find a couple of people to take on tanks seriously (still to have fun of course, but in a more realistic and disciplined way sort to say, you get what I mean..)
sometimes things just happen man. Maybe it was a 1% of happening, but it still happened.
Isn't the fixed battlesight available? 😮
@@thepeero9670 Fair
Tank battles in this game are FAR superior to those from HAHa Let Loose.
Yep ;)
Squad 44 vastly exaggerates what armour angle can bounce a shell. Sherman side armour at 30 degrees bouncing the 88mm L71? Absolute nonsense. Try 80 degrees and maybe.
That’s honestly just bad luck. Should’ve penned, didn’t, but still got him in the end, so nothing lost.
Well, the issue is, that at high impact angle armor gets perforated but the round wouldn't actually enter the vehicle. You just get some spalling that might injure the crew or kill them, or maybe damage ammuniton.
Then again, I don't understand why the game needs some repair mechanic like Battlefield. You can not fix a broken gun or engine on the battlefield, so why bother?
Still, in RL, you would shoot the target until you are sure it's destroyed, meaning the crew bails or it starts burning.
@@kimjanek646 The angle of the shot in the video wasn't a high angle... it was closer to being straight side on than it was angled. Maybe 30 degrees at most, and the game made it bounce off... that just doesn't happen.
Quality clips I couldn’t imagine even seeing the king tiger has to be the scariest shit as a tank crew in ww2
Yes, its a big monster :)
This was pure domination mate. Very good tank crew not easy to get a good random tank crew at the moment because there are so many new players and they have no idea what they are doing so i am playing infantry only at the moment xD
That's true but you can not blame them, they have to get used to the tank mechanics. It's just not like squad tank gameplay and I noticed that a lot of squad players are currently playing or trying Squad 44 :)
No way them tanks would take so much to kill
Yeah, instant War Thunder vibes, killing one crew at a time.
Meisterschütze!
0:08 You missed! How could you miss? He was three feet in front of you!
@@alexreznov45 Pervitin is hell lol
I wish the servers for armored only combat were alive but they’re always dead smh
@@ifoundmemallet3394 Yeah, very fun mode in my opinion ;)
@@Tiger01 Just a shame its always dead
epic tank run wonderful
Thanks :)
That encounter with a calliope though
:D
Ehi Tiger 🐯🐅! Does your blu friend, blauersonnefrosh stop to play? Why he did not load new videos? Let us know, bye ❤
Yeah, he's been off for 5 months now and I haven't heard from him since then.
WTF DM is insane, what a bias for the allied wehicle
;D
Even if the damage model is realistic, it still wouldn't be effective since if we wanted realism, most tiger tanks were shelled by artillery or broke down. German tanks weren't really that effective in the Ardeness Offensive, but they were more effective in the Eastern Front.
@@johncarl5505 less than 5% of the tank losses was to artillery fire. It is much to do on the vehicle performance as the wheeled flies over the muddy fields.
Sick straight 🔥 facts
APCR tends to bounce on angles so that's why despite using the long 88mm, you were still getting ricochets at times
Depends on the situation, but sometimes it's just ridiculous at which angles shells ricochet with some cannons with great firepower.
Something I've always wondered when I see people play tanks in this game. Why do you use APCR as opposed to the APCBC? Wouldn't the APCBC do more damage than APCR? Or am I just stuck in my warthunder delusions?
@@hugogh0113 APCR has higher penetrating power than APCBC but it bounces off more often when the enemy tank is angleled but if you have a 90 degree angle and you know where the ammo rack is I would always prefer APCR it just depends on the situation ;)
@@Tiger01 Apcr too is very dependant of range, most penetrating round in closer ranges like in real
@@AndyP998 True :)
APHE sucks and does less damage than APCR. APHE is more like a HE with some AP capability.
would want to get the game but too poor to do so.
Have you tried playing something like that in Roblox?
What is Roblox?
@@Tiger01 a multiplayer platform
Roblox has some bangers
Doesn't this game like to claim to have 'realistic' gunnery and penetration etc?
No way does a Pershing, or any other Allied tank for that matter, survive multiple 88/L71 rounds at point blank range; that's a joke.
Realistic penetration and damage is exactly that. Tanks don’t die in one shot like in WT unless you hit the ammo or kill the crew, which you have to be either smart or lucky to do.
@@ronaldmcreagann6343 Sure, those are worthy considerations, but I would contend that a long 88mm with a bursting charge is very different from a solid shot. I find it difficult not to believe if it's into the fighting compartment just about anywhere, it's making a mess and almost certainly a mission kill if not a literal kill/incapacitation of the crew. That doesn't require 5 shots from a range where it's all but impossible for it not to have penetrated in the majority of hit locations (although I've not looked at the M26's armour layout for a very long time, LOL).
Thanks for the reply, I always appreciate thoughtful discussion.
Cheers
@@steeltrap3800 the bursting charge does little in the way of improving damage really. Tests have shown the change from APHE and its solid shot equivalent round type (APCBC, APBC, APC, ect) barely changed anything, hence why the British historically stuck with pure solid shot for tanks. As for it taking so many rounds, remember he shot the same spot a bunch. If he spread those shots about more, or aimed specifically for vital locations like ammo (which is pretty easy for the Pershing, it has a rack on the right side of its turret if your looking at it or the hull floor), it’d have been completely knocked out. A few rounds to the front of the hull might’ve punched through the engine too if he aimed appropriately.
The bullet drop also seems a bit exaggerated for a 88/L71 when he was shooting at a distance. At the distance he was shooting the round would almost go flat. At a distance of several kilometers, sure, it happens. But at that distance the drop being so big? No way.
@@The_Curious_Cat It was far away, u just dont have the perception of distance to well in game
Can you fly a plane in this game?
@@yuzhuocao5663 No ;)
The devs managed to make the game with amazing physic, massive texture improvements, awesome VFX explosions... And we still have shitty looking maps and awfull animations lmao
Different devs now. They’re working on everything they can, so give them some time to get into the flow of things. It’s not like the stuff you’re seeing in Squad 44 was supposed to be released by the previous dev team or anything (it was).
