Compared to the old 88 - this unit is pretty boring - however devastating it may be. Being able to AUTO rotate is something that would set it aprt from other units. And everything in this game is too similar at this point.

Babysitting units like that isn't fun imo. Just like babysitting infatry to vault isn't either. Bring a little more AUTO - so we can focus on the bigger picture.


The game is about being able to do all these things at once. That's what makes it competitive. If you don't want to babysit units play campaign. I'm sure they give you some straight forward objectives. If you take away micro-management of units it will just be down to more luck then skill and with the competitive play for this game looking good that's the last thing relic wants to change.

If you spot for it, it should shoot THROUGH any intervening building or object. It uses the same piercing ability as the ISU, but it's on all the time. Should shoot through buildings and neutral objects.

Wow, that is good to know!

Just tried to use it for a few games, with a sniper sneaking around spotting for it.
It dies too fast to artillery and hits 1/4 shots at a T-34 broadside parked 20m from it. A T-34 dies in 2-3 shots.
