Why can the anti tankers not take them out though?

I would like the ability to disable bots in tanks.

The reason anti tank people cant take them out, is they dont use their common sense and go for the weaker spots, instead they empty all their ammo onto the Front slopes of tanks where it does naff all, Often though and ive been on mumble with others who were trying, the Anti tank rifles have trouble even getting through the sides and rears of the Pz4 and T34, so its mainly pot luck half the time.

Edit..Id also like to disable the AI Gunners in the tanks, They are stupidly accurate as i proved the other night, as most of the those kills were from the AI Hull gunner and not actually by me as a player, For some reason beyond all realism the AI gunner can see and kill through smoke with headshots 90% of the time. The tanks main gun has a Coaxial MG, which if used correctly can be just as effective but its controlled by the player. I love the tanks and it was my favourite thing in RO1, and if used correctly can help Defend a cap point and in many cases can help cap one.

Very true another issue i have the tanks is that the AI FOV is crazy, I have found many times that i'm out of the gunners sight and they seem to spot me.


Also are there any large tank maps like on RO1?

We got rid of them because we found more and more that people would drive them to the allies spawn and with the AI gunners you could be pinned in the first spawn for a whole round. Without them the game is seriously so much more fluid with allies moving forward well. It's about 50/50 now on who wins.

Yea I've noticed that, but its nothing I've done as its a little unfair, usually just find a nice spot near a cap zone or sit in one and do my best to stay alive and provide cover for the troops.
 
Absolutely, they are vulnerable but by the time it was taking to organise the damage was done so we ditched em :).


I think its likely better on a larger server and happens less.
 
Grrrrr this is annoying me now:mad:

It can fine for a short while then for no apparent reason I cant respawn, i'm stuck in spectator mode.

It was suggested to press alt +f4 but no joy, any ideas? thanks.

It happened to me once I had reset the game.
 
Tanks are stupid in this game imo

A mobile AT man is not enough to combat it, you need AT guns... even if they are not mobile and are set at spawn points to prevent raping.

Its not fun seeing the tank driver rack up 100+ kills cleaning up almost half of their reinforcements... wheres the challenge in that, sit in a metal box spamming away.

Happened to me aswell about 20mins ago!

To get it to work again, change your role.. however it can respawn you and kill you suicide :o


Just had an awesome match on Loam's beer drinker server, 32 players is a lot better it was also a smooth server.
