Squad 44 - King Tiger Dominates The Battlefield - 4K

[@gizmofilms7632]

I counted 2 Pershings, 5 Sherman Tanks, 2 AT Guns, 2 Light Tanks and 2 Trucks. Good job, that was fantastic!

[@Tiger01]

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 :)

[@AimoLahti67]

Its sad to be left alone in the battlefield. Especially if friends start playing shitty games like CoD

[@Who--Dat]

​@@Tiger01what would you say is better? Hell let loose or squad 44?

[@Tiger01]

@Who--Dat It depends on what kind of taste you have, Hll more arcade and S44 more realism, you have to decide for yourself. I like both :)

[@cro4sule]

That would be realistic.

[@Panopticon83]

That first shot, LMAO. I had the exact same reaction, "What the F?"

[@conajmniejtrzyznaki]

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

[@Tiger01]

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 :)

[@leonardo-m2524]

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.

[@KevinS47]

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..)

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.

[@ronaldmcreagann6343]

That’s honestly just bad luck. Should’ve penned, didn’t, but still got him in the end, so nothing lost.

[@Kuschel_K]

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.

[@AllThingsCubey]

@@Kuschel_K 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.

@@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.

[@Tiger01]

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 ;)

[@Kuschel_K]

@@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 ;)

[@_kommandant_3055]

APCR tends to bounce on angles so that's why despite using the long 88mm, you were still getting ricochets at times

[@Tiger01]

Depends on the situation, but sometimes it's just ridiculous at which angles shells ricochet with some cannons with great firepower.

[@mrx2062]

Strange is that in this game the tanks appear to drive completely alone randomly without any support by other units through the landscape to seek 1v1 duels with a Tiger.

[@johncarl5505]

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.

[@staffancallert]

@@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.

[@akuhuomanen1584]

What actually annoys me is that they are using HEAT on tanks that basically has no angles to protect them :D also some variants of M26 had really good armor for HEAT rounds. For destruction inside the tank I would use APHE. Composite shells are a question mark since post pen dmg sucks.

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.

[@ronaldmcreagann6343]

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.

[@steeltrap3800]

@@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

[@ronaldmcreagann6343]

@@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_Curious_Cat]

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.
