Because stuff like this happens!

Took a IS-3 shot to the side and no damage and apparently it crit! (According to the IS-3 driving saying "lol ghost shell)

God bless Stalin for looking over my stalinium plated tank from heaven!

I proceeded to win that game by capping on my own solo undetected by the enemy IS-3 from over 60m away (He tried looking for me) and just as I capped 100 I shot him! haha (russian romulan stealth camo ftw)


They only had the IS3 and a KV-13 at the end.

I will give you an -1 because:

1. Soviet tanks have a bug that the devs like to call it "spaced armor"
2. Stalin was waaaay worse than Hitler and you said god bless him. Ow, i'm an atheist, but i still don't like that sentence.
3. Because you won the game due that broken spotting system.
4. Because you're just trolling.
5. Because you're just trolling.

Also, you created this topic only to get "-1"

I was joking about the Stalin thing xD

I'm not going to comment on the rest, but the spaced armor isn't a bug. The problem is that the game's way of telling you that you hit spaced armor sucks and it misleads a lot of people, but the armor itself does technically work exactly as it should.

Damn, I ran out of "-1"s already.

And too many T-50 have spaced armor...or i'm suck a bad player that i always shoot the tracks, or somewhere else? I know, there are some tanks that had/have spaced armor in real life, but not all tanks.

Ow, and now that we're talking about spaced armor:
SuperPershing has the most stupid spaced armor. Lower frontal plate. I was with my Panther 1 (4.1 reloading time) and i shot 8-9 shells in his lower plate. ALL shots penetrated, all shots left holes in the hull, all were 0 damage.
Yep, i know that it's just an super-tester tank, but, if they will release it like this there will be a lot of QQ...

Sadly i don't have the replay, as it wasn't enabled on beta client.

You think this is impresive? Pffff..

I just say Headshot  :P

So now, besides the countless whine threads about the Russian bias, some people purposefully make threads praising how much they like OP tanks, more precisely the KV w/ 152mm and the goddamn IS-3/4/7.

i just speak for myself, but i thought it was a cool pic (bullet between the eyes and so on) As i readed this topic i just remembered of it. And it is my personal proof that i was wrong about my assumtion that "0hp Hits" hits some modules/crewmember and not the superstructure..

dear administration: sorry for the doubblepost, as metioned before, i am absolute groggy atm...

Since it's obvious you havent seen this before, here you go - is3:



It should become quite obvious why didint the shot do any damage now. And about that "critical hit" message? my guess would be the shell ricocheted into the tracks but was'nt enough to track the tank.

word of advice for the future: when shooting an is3 from the side - aim low.

This, so much. People don't seem to understand basic ballistics. Anything fired at the side armor from above WILL be pretty much automatically deflected.
