Pak 43 shooting through elevations/houses

I can see it go both ways.

If you check the list, it also mentions other mechanics such as locating enemies through things happening in the fog of war. Window crushing, fences getting destroy, sound, xp kickers etc. Depending on who you ask, ghosting can be fine.

Some people consider blocking retreat path with other infantry or vehicles abusing. Same with pushing.

No one bats an eye if you attack ground to luck yourself and get a scatter hit outside the range of the weapon or try to shoot through a sight blocker like a building.

If the enemy doesn't know to press stop, you can make vehicles phase through each other.

What's consider a skill, mechanic or knowledge to be ok is entirely dependant on what the community believes to be fine.

I'm talking based on experience in SC2, WC3, AoE, FPS and fighting games.

To some degree, sure. At least personally I'd call all the "Fog Mechanics" (Barring perhaps sounds?) to clearly be bugs. I suppose it's up for interpretation.

"a possible game feature"

I do have to be honest, I'm not really sure how they could come to that conclusion.

one of the reasons I stopped playing coh1 was because 88's just sniped ATGs like that, and since the invincible mechanic doesn't exist in coh1 the moment 88s were on the field you could kiss your AT goodbye.
atleast in the current game you can just repair the gun if the enemy manages to damage it, and like I said in a normal game it's hard to actually target something on tactical map since the icons are so big

I think they should give the pak43 brace and remove auto-attack through obstacles. Allow both the 17ber and pak43 to always pierce obstacles, but make it require attack ground to do so

I prefer scuddle pak ability to, crew destroys the gun retreat the base then can rebuild pak cheaper kind of ability ( crew cannot cap points) to shooting over houses etc. With this alternative brace can keep vet crew alive but ofc it needs penetration shoot ability after spending mun anyway or will be utter useless without it....

Oh I take it extremely seriously. It's come close to ending a game a few times when I was Axis. But against decent ppl it only has the surprise factor and dies rather easily to ISG, infantry, AT guns or even Ele/Jagdtiger duelling it out. Not to mention call-ins after Brace is gone.....
