Su85 is 115 fuel / 320 mp ... panther is 165 fuel /440 mp and requires battlephase 3 upgrade at hq. Do the math Mr wiseguy.
Su85 in this game can reverse away from any flanking attack which means flanking it is not really rewarding as it should.
panther irl was able to curb stomp su85. So if you have such simplistic statements like "Tanks are a poor counter to tank destroyers" kindly dont post especially if your a soviet fanboy
Next please ....
uh i don't know if you know this but, there is a prevalent thing that is very important in coh series. its called
balance realism always will come second.
so in a game of chess an TD should kill a tank unless ofc its flanked. (which is a another very important part of coh series). if you want more realism play Men of war its much more realistic if thats what your looking for. also as far as realism goes tank battles mostly took place at a range of 2000 meters so yea... one more note the panther is much newer tank and more advanced technology wise so ofc irl it could curb stomp a su85. the su85 was on top of that build off the t34 chassis. like most TD's of the time they build them off of "MBTs" (shermans, t34s, tigers, whatever they could find etc...) -__-
i however agree that the panther does need work in it's current state. im just not sure where, so im gonna let the devs decide that.
also stop calling people Communists or Nazis just because someone doesn't agree with you its stupid, silly and most importantly immature. (inb4 goodwins law
