Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

So, not a good idea.

That would make AT-guns significantly less effective, because nobody would drive into their line of fire/ or just slightly into it being able to retreat immediately.
So, not a good idea.
AT-guns should have more line of sight as well

Well ,then both units would look at each other. The point is that AT-guns have 60 range. If the view distance went up from 40 to 50 range units, your tank will be into the AT-guns arc of fire by 10 units seeing the AT-gun, and not 20 units and you can escape more easily.

There is no recording in all WW2 history of a piat actually knocking off a vehicle. Yes, it was THAT bad.

i want all tanks to have a 90 degree LoS like the jpIV by default and top gunners can make it a full 360.
That would be interesting to see.
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

i figure it would make tank rushes more risky and flanks more rewarding. right now you've got 40 sight in 360 degrees so you're basically safe from anything except an AT gun and if you're paying attention (and assuming pathing doesn't fuck up) you'll never get hit by more than one or two shots per AT gun. if tanks couldn't see behind you could even sneak infantry up on them to satchel or AT nade.

In reality what was the vision like for tanks to see behind them? I'm talking without someone up top of course.
I imagine they had rear vision slits/periscopes of some kind at least?
It would certainly make things interesting if they couldn't see behind them at all.

Oooh, this would make tank dives a lot more punishing, not being able to see behind them when they are unsupported. I think even 180* LoS would be interesting.

Right now is just a interesting idea on paper, that would probably fail on the execution.
