Tactics Need help taking down the tiger with ptrd.

[jh1990]

Is it even possible?

 

[kapulA]

I doubt it,unless with a perfect hit in the back turret/engine...

 

[.KilrBe3]

Its possible, With a Perfect hit in the ass

 

[kfnguy2]

I've fired up to 12 rounds at a tigers engine/ammo storage with PTRD and recieved no results!

 

[Hyperion2010]

You cant unless you find a bug.

 

[ViViD]

If anyone ever does i going to pack up RO and send it back to Tripwire and tell them to sell this game to EA. For realism would be out the window.

Well start shipping, I just killed a tiger with one shot it 12 times with no effect then it got hit by a couple of tank shells and was on fire and i shot it once more and it blew up.

Thats one of the fun parts of being a ptrd soldier: knowing when, who and where to shoot. Needs lots of testing, playing and dying.

It's a lonely life, with lots of crawling, but when it pays off, you feel like the king of the world

PTRD's are far more fun shooting Infantry!

If you want to bust tanks as a grunt pick up a Faust or use the satchels.

There is something more rewarding about getting up so close you can smell the diesel, and diving to avoid the following explosion

Well its also nice to play as a PT Team, especially if there is a Bottleneck on a Map

 

[[CiA]Stiletto]

Oh man...distributing six PTRDs around and laying an ambush for those poor beleaguered Panthers is a trip.

Especially when you get a good ripple fire going. BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG pause BANG BANG BANG BANG...

 

[Dabnorfish]

Gotta love tank drivers who park in tall grass fields

 

[Piron]

Or in the centre of a village, or next to a forest.

Seriously, the PTRD is a POS weapon that was out of date by 1942/43 and should not even be included in the later war maps. It has a zero chance of taking out panthers/tigers at anyrange/any shot. It simply cannot peirce the armor anywhere on these vehicals.

RPG43's would be a lot more effective.

I agree. It would be much better if the developers put molotov cocktails in the game instead

 

[Bolt]

Actually, iirc, i read that one tiger (or panther, doesn't matter - heavy german tank) was taken out by anti-tank soldier RIGHT IN FRONT ARMOR. God damn me, if i know, how did he do it...

 

[LemoN]

actually the tigers weakspot is his side and not the back
the devs really should rework the ptrd
that it does kill nearly everything when its damaged stats that something is CLEARLY wrong with either the damage model or the weapon itself :X

 

[Denwad]

rear armor is 82mm

side armor is 82mm, but the armor behind the road wheels is 60mm, still unsurmountable by the PTRD
