COH2 Starter Series: Vehicle Mechanics

[@AECoH]

Starter series what a load of bullshit, I guarantee you 99% of all CoH players could learn a lot from this video. Should be called CoH Bible more like! Epic stuff

[@tightropegaming]

Thanks brother, yeah I decided on the name before I made any of the videos. They aren't really aimed at absolute beginners, though you could probably chop it down to 1/3 of the easiest material and make it digestible for that level. This one was the hardest yet to make, close to 40 hours of actual work and then countless more telling myself I was going to work but fucking around hahaha.

​@@tightropegaming This 3 year old content has such a high quality it actually is the straw that breaks the camels back. I will donate to your patreon (first donation I ever did on youtube). This video and all the other great content you do, is just a treasure for anybody trying to be better, or getting back in after years.

@@qczm99 Thanks I really appreciate that

"US forces only experience moving penalty of 0.75. this is due to faction being designed around high mibility" And, I imagine, because they had gun stabilizers on their tanks during WW2.

[@smartassdroid5149]

Stabilisers were barely used, if they ever even worked in yhe first place. Most tank crews dropped them.

[@Edo_Ginting]

@@smartassdroid5149 Mostly because they don't know how to fix them on the fly, when it was well maintained, it does work

[@natethenotsogreat8349]

@@smartassdroid5149the Sherman and practically every variant had stabilizers

[@Wings0fRed]

Such a great video series. Well produced, informative, organized - amazing! Thank you!

[@JohnyRelax]

This is well done my friend, thank you for your time, was a joy to watch.

"every shot is PENETRATING! WHY?!!!!!!!"Hans, the best CoH player ever.

[@57Ryuk]

Looking good tightrope. Great video, as always.

[@moa643]

Very useful tips, thanks!

[@EjderAdventures]

very educational video :)

[@TheIronArmenianakaGIHaigs]

Is that a Tiger 131 i spy?

[@tightropegaming]

Yes that is from the trip to the Bovington Tank Museum we all went on before GCS2. It is the only working one in the world, the one from the movie Fury.

[@CodeB4US10]

Awesome thanks for the video!!

[@absol505]

Interesting about there being no side armor, one question, if your vehicle is driving and you hit stop but it hasn't fully stopped yet and then shoots already, does that still count as a shot without moving penalty?

[@tightropegaming]

It counts as stopped, as I mentioned I cover stuff like that (including that exact question) in the micro tips series

[@Andy_Spy]

Great stuff!!!

[@MrZero00000000000000]

great info!

[@avocus]

I go to the tank museum in Bovingron quite often, was at Tiger day too, if i knew you were there i woulda, i dunno probably done something that made us both very uncomfortable :|

[@tightropegaming]

Should have come to GCS2 then

[@u.b.5366]

You said that the scatter shot have a designated area to hit close to the enemy, or so I understood. But in one match Hans' british tank wildely overshoots about 100meters and sinks paulas (?) panther on the ice. Was that a bug or is it a game mechanic?

[@tightropegaming]

A bug, I believe that is something they couldn't fix in terms of geometry without messing up the scatter system. At one point they were looking into adding a lifespan to projectiles so that if they did massively overshoot the projectile would time out and die so it wouldn't end up damaging anything. That probably caused other performance issues so here we are.

[@u.b.5366]

Thanks for the answer!

[@MrDazTroyer]

Nice thumb nail, that's Bovington tank museum isn't it?

[@lazyren7451]

Maybe add the vid to "CoH2 Tutorials" playlist?

[@terry_vasa]

Hope finally Hans learn how to need control tiger.

[@MICROKNIGHT3000]

I want to learn how to control Tiger, how doe one play that specific heavy tank?

[@brandonturpin8932]

I really hope in coh3 small arms can inflict damage to vehicles. It seems absolutely silly that automatic/machines gun fire would all just harmlessly bounce off. I guarantee if you shoot 1000 rounds at a WW2 tank something bad would happen

[@TerpeneProfile1]

They made anti tank rounds for a reason.

[@VRichardsn]

_I guarantee if you shoot 1000 rounds at a WW2 tank something bad would happen_ Yeah, you would break a headlight.

[@EstellammaSS]

Well, they do

[@u.b.5366]

You already have such an ability called button up by the guards. You basically shoot at the glass block where the driver looks out from. Shooting this glass block, he has to close the shutter to not get damage on the glass. Other than that you might try to shoot 1000 bullets against steel and look what damage is done against it - hint: none.
