Give it a break please?... Or shall we start forwarding the images with your names to Relic for approval, or otherwise?

"Abilities:

Fire Flare – Fire a flare at the target location to gain sight."

An AT gun which can spot for itself and can fire through buildings... I'm worried this might be a bad idea...

I think it would be very hard to balance emplacements between being completely useless and being completely broken.

400mp / 75 fuel is pretty steep for an AT gun especially one that is probably hard countered by ost turbomortars. We'll have to see what its like on launch.

Where did you get the idea that it can shoot through buildings?

Probably from the "piercing shot" ability.
Its definitely not armor piercing, because that is the whole point of 17 pounder.

currently axis are still hogging and hoarding all of the best AT, armor and infantry in-game so i expect the brits to be on par with the axis because in most auto-matches with players i've seen with my own two eyes at least 70% want to play axis more than allies


Wrong...

Search Rates and Faction Preference: Example: 4,000 people are in game and 500 people are searching, 400 are searching for Axis and 100 for Allies. Therefore what the search percentage shows is 80% searching for Axis and 20% searching for Allies. So 80% of people are not IN A GAME as Axis, 50% are and the other 50% are in game as Allies. Overall 2,400 people are playing/want to play as Axis, and 2,100 are playing/want to play as Allies. So the actual faction preference for Axis is 53%, not 80%.


Please stop acting like a pratt to everyone who prefers the axis faction on these forums...

Thanks.

Complete bullshit. Go to the live games, and you can see the total amount of games being played at a current time. The number of players playing automatch is nowhere near that. I doubt the number of players playing at any given time even reaches 400.

Its an example

Even if theres 400 ingame theres still only around 20 in que. so the point still stands.

Its not hard to work out tbh. Axis, then que as allies, when allies jumps from 10% to 20% means theres 10 of you in que... which is a small portion of the 400 ingame.

hell yesz the 17pdr is back! just as I predicted =). axis fanboys with their more-bang-for-their-buck tanks wont be happy when they see this emplacement being built on the map. That things a REAL tank killer after all it was the brits 88.


I think the tears will be for its users. Exposed to every balistic on the map + Sturmtiger. Lol. You will see then why PAK43 is not OP. :D

You're making a healthy assumption that it doesn't have defensive mechanics against these.
I highly advise you to reread its first ability on the screenshot :sibHyena:
