It has NO MG and must rely on its cannon until vet 2 where it unlocks grenades.
kyle said that, but there was a an MG fireing from the hull. So I don't think that's the case. It still seemed pretty weak though. |
On Paras, aren't they? I thought it's free on rangers...
Nope, they are just really durable rifles. |
We should all bang
It wouldn't be gay, it'd be masturbation.
...ya'll are doodz, right
No, I identify as an apache helicopter. |
Tiger crews, german vehicle crews where well trained. They rotated the turret and the HULL the same time.
Tiger vs Pershing didn't happen afaik.
Pershing saw combat but arrived late... it was over. "After training the tank crews, the T26E3 tanks were first committed to combat on 25 February, with the 3rd Armored Division, in the fighting for the Roer River. On 26 February, a T26E3 named Fireball was knocked out in an ambush at Elsdorf while overwatching a roadblock. Silhouetted by a nearby fire, the Pershing was in a disadvantageous position. A concealed Tiger tank fired three shots from about 100 yd (91 m). The first penetrated the turret through the machine gun port in the mantlet, killing both the gunner and the loader. The second shot hit the gun barrel, causing the round that was in the chamber to fire with the effect of distorting the barrel. The last shot glanced off the turret side, taking off the upper cupola hatch. While backing up to escape, the Tiger became entangled in debris and was abandoned by the crew. Fireball was quickly repaired and returned to service on 7 March."
lol, the pershing lost yet still kind of won.
Funny enough the only other time the USF fought a Tiger was with shermans, and the shermans won. |
Well I'm plenty excited. This is all i could have ever asked for from an american heavy. You guys are way too focused on heavy vs heavy fights, like it matters. 1v1 heavy fights with 0 support are rare.
Benefits of the Pershing:
1. Can turn to fight really fast, and will be very hard to flank
2. 50 range means you out-range every other heavy at low vet.
3. Mobility lets you avoid AT guns easier
4. Combined Arms lets you self spot and out-range everything except TDs
5. Smoke can be called in anywhere to cover it from AT
With all this I don't give a shit if it can 1v1 a Tiger. Lower health doesn't mean shit if they can't actually hit you. |
wtf is this
you are telling me that USF player will only field 1 pershing that cant fight a panther and cant take a beating for a heavy tanks cost????
we asked for the m26 pershing NOT a panther with a m26 pershing skin,if these stats are for the USF version of the heavy tank then they should not be limited and/or reduce the price of the tank
IF the above options dont sound good then buff the damage of the pershing to 240 and increase its armor to 360 and the HP to 900
i cant accept that a panther is better then a doctrinal heavy tank hp wise,armor wise,price wise and last but not least SPEED wise
They said the pershing will beat a panther.
Watch the stream. The pershing is really mobile for a heavy and that's going to be it's best strength. It might lose to the other heavies, but it can also circle strafe them pretty easily. |
Artillery doesn't even counter these units anyway. Even well timed barrages will only manage to do 200 or 400 damage at most, which isn't really dangerous to these high health units. So it's doesn't really matter. |
Thanks!!
What about auto-facing of LeIG, Packhowie and the currently underperforming axis troops (read: late game survivability)? This isn't a Q&A. It's a pershing thread. Just because a dev popped in to say something, doesn't mean it's time to interrogate them. |
IRL it was basically a more armoured tiger I. That would be helluva boring in game since we already have that with IS-2/tiger...
They said it had more armor then a Tiger in-game. It's armor is in between the tiger and panther. |
Brad said Rangers had 4 weapon slots. That means you could put 4x bars/zooks on them too. |
