btw: Body Armor?

or: Working AT-Guns, StG-44, Panzerfaust, Bazooka, Gorjunow SG-43, Magentic HHL-3?

No, the surprise will be much bigger, more than you can imagine.

Hehe,

Dibbler's been working for TWI and the IOM will go DLC with full support?

Impossible, I have a very active imagination.

I'd like this, although I'd be happy to simply have it released with a painless, autoDL install for the lazy and the inept.

Sorry if it went past my eyes, but what makes the difference in those German early and late war 9mm ammunitions? Does the later one have more gunpowder or something?

 

[Grayjack72]

I kinda feel like the body armor would be a bit of an advantage for Russia. Sure it slows them down a bit, but the head is a lot harder to hit then the body. I think the teams are pretty well balanced already.

I think it's just better propellant. That or just more efficient ballistics; lighter bullet higher velocity etc.

I believe it is mostly bullet weight reduction which yields the higher velocity. It is not outside of the pressure bounds of being able to be fired from the Pistol rounds - it has something to do with the coating on the rounds which could corrode the Pistol barrels quicker. Initially these 9mm high velocity rounds were painted Black (interestingly, TWI knew this as it is seen in the RO2 MP40 when you reload it, check ammo etc) but by 1944 this additional colouring was removed.

Oh the black coating! So are these those weird iron core rounds?

Yep

 

[mrsirr]

Yep

Oooooh cool :O

Progress update: IOM is not dead. Development is very slow. Likely to pick up pace during holiday seasons.

Happy Remembrance Day

Yeeesh :0
How effective is that thing compared to the PTRS?

original vanila PTRS had 34mm penetration on soviet side and 55 mm on german side ( if i am not wrong ).
Tremozl told me that in 1,15 PTRS will get 38mm penetration ( of german 1942 armor ) and pzb39 will be 33mm if i am not wrong.

We are also going to include 2 types of ammo for soviet PTRD/PTRS AT rifles later ( same way as HE rounds for snipers ), that will be regular B-32 with 30-35mm penetration and BS-41 with tungsten core and 38mm penetration

That has changed since the last update btw.

Really? i dont remember if it was changed in 1,14

 

[morticore]

Parameters of AT-rifles were changed in last Ro2 official patch.

 

[Panzer Jager '43]

PzB39 is effective against the T70 side armour and the UC. PTRS is much better against those two targets, but all AT Rifles struggle against the Panzer III, Panzer IV, and T34/76. So the advantage actually ends up going to the Germans despite that their AT Rifle is worse.

PTRS looks awesome! I see you're running it on Arad, did you guys fix that half track crash bug?
