Well, Ive been watching another indie company game

Hmm, is it project zomboid?

[EIRRMod]

Hmm, is it project zomboid?

Oh yes.

[TheIcelandicManiac]

Thanks for the honesty 

[Tymathee]

i'm a suck up, i go for anything eirrmod says, so yes

[Demon767]

Don't forget that the 88 suffers the same changes as well. 88's not only have the same poor accuracy, but will also require 3 hits to bag an ATG.

Nightrain, you'll have 1 CCT with 7 Croms.

Rifle, it was at 1.5, now it's at 1.25.

the nerf was more to atgs vs 88 than 88 vs atg, just saying

[TheVolskinator]

I can say that 88s with arty officers reliably LOLWTFpwn ATGs. I faced 8thpistol with his and they blew everything I had out of the water.

Yep.

[aeroblade56]

makes HVAP upgunned shermans look better then TD currently because of price changed and survivability.

[Smokaz]

had fun trying to to take out a 88 with a 70% hp pershing and a 57mm, engagement starting at a range where my units both could fire

88 won

i was a witness i saw the stream.

[pqumsieh]

And you don't see what you did wrong in that scenario?

[Smokaz]

yawn, pq

this was more than doable before, there was a balance to the 88 vs 57mm, aka they were both lethal to each other and 88 would not auto target a at gun over a vehicle or a tank, so a sleeping axis player could see his 88 destroyed by omg imba 21 pop of at weaponry vs 8 because a 57 would also actually deal damage to it, now 88 just laughs at them

(also quite lol how a sherman deals more dmg to a 88 than a pershing, hee hee hee axis4lyfe)

not impressed by 88 buff vs at guns

[Demon767]

I don't know why they changed the 88 vs ATG. i thought it was a fine counter to both.

[pqumsieh]

Well I want to ensure everyone we don't put our ego before the game. We will test the changes for a bit longer and determine whether things need to be tweaked, reverted, or maintained.

However, I stand by my point that I don't think your scenario was a good tactic versus an 88. More over, it's anecdotal for now until we can get more reports in.

[jackmccrack]

Today I saw Stuarts severely maim light vehicles with just a shot, and against those same vehicles, Staghounds bounced.

[Demon767]

staghounds bouncing, intential... too some degree

[Hicks58]

The Pershing has never been a viable counter to the 88. The best you can hope for is decrewing it because it has ridiculous modifiers against the weapon itself... Something I've not liked since the dawn of CoH, but I've dealt with it.

I'm fine with the 88/ATG changes, I've never liked how the 88 is essentially a do-it-all platform. Any area the 88 covered was free reign for Axis armour because no ATG's could venture there. Now, you can effectively support infantry pushes with ATG support without an Ostwind/PIV/couple of Puma's/etc coming along and face fucking you.

But running a Pershing into an 88? The only time that's a good idea is if the 88 is at 30% health or less, considering it takes 6 rounds to bag it from full health.

My final note here is this - Adapt to the new changes and employ new tactics before crying foul. If a variety of new tactics prove ineffective, THEN you should speak up.

Did I miss something here? Did you try to use a tank to take out an anti tank gun and have concerns it failed.......

Then later you claim that it used to work, so for that reason you are unhappy with the change...?

You are loosing credibility Smokaz.......
