It's not bad, you just need more than 1 to deal with Axis armor. It has bad damage and penetration, but has good rate of fire. And for heavies you'd better rely on Jacksons to do the job.

It's the best AT gun in the game *IF* your using AP rounds. It's already got the best ROF, AP rounds gives it slightly better penetration than the pak/ZiS/6lber. It's veterancy is really good too.

Thats just lie, right? AP rounds only increase its penetration to rakketten level, or am i mistaken? Besides
paying munitions for your at gun to actualy pen armor is the dumbest idea i ever heard.

why


It's okay with vet. The problem is keeping the vet as it is wiped easily. As someone else pointed out, it's good for P4's and below. The other problem that it has is that it is a munitions hog if you want to use it well, and USF always seems low on munitions.

The actual one in WWII was disliked by US troops. For some reason, instead of just copying the 6 pounder, the US changed the design and ended up with something that had much lower penetration and other design flaws.

So when you're wrong you are mistaken, but anybody else is lying? And you are wrong. The 57 has 130 penetration at max range, the AP rounds ability is a 50% bonus. 65 is 50% of 130, giving you 195 max range penetration. Pak40, and 6lber have 190, ZiS has 180. The 57 is also the only AT gun that gets a pen bonus with Vet.

It's reload time, vet 1 ability, and wider arc are the reason it has to. It's better at literally everything else, there has to be some trade-off.

Where did you find the 130 far pen? I only found it to be 115. Was it buffed?

Wait, is the 57mm THAT good? And why do i learn this now? xD

I used a 57mm in a game recently and i held a Panther with it, a M10 and a bazooka equipped Echelons. Didn't know that vetted 57mm is better than both Pak and ZiS

It’s cuz LT tier > Capt Tier so you don’t see it that often.

Its penetration was buffed over 2 years ago, in June 2016 patch.

Yup it's by far the best as long as you are willing to throw down Muni. It's probably the least accessible tho, hence Gentleman's point.

It’s also only 270 mp If I remember correctly so it’s very good. We will likely see a lot of it in the future USF tech changes

Baller vet 1 too. it's almost free range since why the hell wouldn't you cover your AT guns' flanks anyway.

it seems bad because axis tanks generally have high armor values, and get even higher with vet 2 skirts. but as others have mentioned, the abilities it comes with, and the vet bonuses make it a really good at gun.

You have munition = great AT gun.

No muni = underwhelming.

(Fairly off topic)

It's about time a lot of myths died. People will spam "raketen LUL" when a rak misses a shot any other AT gun would have too. People will spam "IS2 LUL" when an IS2 completely whiffs a shot from its main gun (and then completely overlook when it fires again and destroys 3 models). These confirmation bias threads and comments get old really quickly.

Last Thursday, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
Last Thursday, 09:34 AM

20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.

14 Mar 2025, 10:45 AM
Rosbone: It is an indicator of the very short sighted capitalist view that plagues any company where leadership does not understand the product.
13 Mar 2025, 20:00 PM
Rosbone: They dont care about Coh3 or Coh in general. They are just trying to grab cash by ripping off the small user base they have.
13 Mar 2025, 19:58 PM
Rosbone: Just making mistake after mistake after mistake.
13 Mar 2025, 19:57 PM
Rosbone: It is clear they crapped out an unfinished game. And are now barely supporting it as they make new smaller games. Coh3 is stillborn. It will be meh for at least another 2-4 years. Meaning they killed the whole franchise instead of growing it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:56 PM
Rosbone: For a thing they could fix in minutes. Literally minutes.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: If I did play coh3 and was mainly a skirmish player, I would be pissed and probably stop playing. And it has been like this since release. Why? I would not tell my friends to buy a game I am not even playing. Lost sales and angered users.
13 Mar 2025, 19:53 PM
Rosbone: I am just saddened how Relic keeps hurting themselves by not fixing 5 minute things like menus. Why anger users with stuff that could be fixed in minutes???
13 Mar 2025, 19:50 PM
Rosbone: I was wondering why people think I was raging. I think it was when I said "because coh3 sucks so bad". That was not my opinion. Just a general feel from top players/streamers. I dont play Coh3 and have NO opinion of it.
13 Mar 2025, 19:48 PM
OKSpitfire: You can rage as often as you like btw, you usually manage to make it pretty funny.
12 Mar 2025, 11:18 AM
Rosbone: So it was a systemic failure across multiple disciplines and check points.
12 Mar 2025, 04:30 AM
Rosbone: Knowing how companies work, I imagine a new hire making the menus. The API they are using is complicated and things were hard to figure out. But at some point QA or management should have addressed these things. Usually within 6 months of starting.
12 Mar 2025, 04:29 AM
Rosbone: @theekvn I dont hate Coh3 or Relic. I just dont understand how you work on Coh3 for like 7 years and the menu system is worse than if a Programming 101 student made it. Feel free to explain it to me.
12 Mar 2025, 04:07 AM

12 Mar 2025, 03:54 AM
theekvn: you rather go 76 to unity Whizbang 2.0 or go home.
12 Mar 2025, 03:52 AM
theekvn: also US tier 4 is 145f and Sherman pen 140 nerf is too much.
12 Mar 2025, 03:52 AM
theekvn: Whizbang lock behind CP, meanwhile stuka is techtree progress
12 Mar 2025, 03:51 AM
KoRneY: @aerafield It's possible that it is underpriced for what it is capable of now, no need to go full retard and take it immediately as a massive problem. It costs 60 more MP than a pz.3 and in 2v2 the barrage can be quite strong.
07 Mar 2025, 19:14 PM
OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....
06 Mar 2025, 16:35 PM
aerafield: USF already is by far the shittiest faction in terms of countering blobbing and turtling, now they supposedly have one overtuned tool locked behind a BG and it's immediately a massive problem?
06 Mar 2025, 13:33 PM
Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?
06 Mar 2025, 12:13 PM
OKSpitfire: A powerful, doctrinal unit that outperforms stock stuff? Colour me shocked! :P
06 Mar 2025, 10:49 AM
Willy Pete: Cool you wanna lose your stock lategame arty too then?
06 Mar 2025, 03:20 AM
Lady Xenarra: WTB Whizzbang for DAK instead of Stuka, 5 fuel cheape, 60MP more expensive and next to impossible to dive. :rofl:
05 Mar 2025, 20:27 PM
Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.
04 Mar 2025, 02:58 AM
Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.
04 Mar 2025, 02:55 AM
Rosbone: Relic wants Coh2 to fail so players will migrate to Coh3. It is hard to blame them since Coh3 sucks so bad. It needs all the help it can get.
