Heavy crit on vehicles from nades and fausts

unfortunately, crit chances are in the stats of the target, not the weapon, and they are based on weapon types. so, as far as i know, molotov crit chances cant be adjusted without changing all flame crits or creating a whole new weapon type just for molotovs.

imagine if your mortars had pinpoint accuracy at all times or tanks penetrated 100%. i dont think that would be more exciting at all. there is something satisfying about getting a direct hit with a mortar because its difficult to do (even if its not entirely skill based, its not entirely luck either).

look at some mechanics that had no rng before. AT nades and ram used to work 100% of the time. can you honestly say that was more exciting? i think its awesome that i can turn my tank just in time to force the AT nade to hit front armor and have it bounch off. the same goes for getting crew shocked by a ram. so i really do think the uncertainty makes things more fun, but thats just my opinion

Other day I had a vet2 tiger get immobolized (as in, cannot move at all) from a ram from the front on the first try. What the fuck.

I do not find RNG elements for vehicle criticals to add ANY excitement to the game.

I get excited when great players make brilliant plays, NOT when RNG causes bullshit unlikely outcomes.

This is just as bad as the sniper vs sniper RNG in vCOH that ruined perfectly executed counter-sniping.

Cataclaw: Do you really believe that adding a random chance seige tanks to miss or fungal growth not immobilize would make SC2 more exciting to watch?

There's a lot wrong with this game at the moment and this kind if binary RNG is one of them.

Other day I had a vet2 tiger get immobolized (as in, cannot move at all) from a ram from the front on the first try. What the fuck.

Funny thing is though (and this is a separate issue entirely), I thought that was gg right there but it turns out that the vet2 tiger is so tanky that a vet3 Su85, 2AT guns and another T34 couldn't kill it (this was in 2v2, in case you're wondering). What a joke.
