Finally a place to spill your guts, let all that trapped in rage out.

I did it as tribute to 2.45, please share your stories, videos and screenshots

[Flippy Warbear]

Wonderful video, but made me so ashamed...

[Butcher]

2.45 in a nutshell. EPIC!

[LuckyOne]

If the fail is in lack of proper aiming skills then I agree... Otherwise, where's the fail here?

Ok I admit some shots were a bit stupid, but nothing that can't be explained by dodgy hit detection and few angle mod quirks... Oh, yeah the Shermans are bugged, but everyone already knows that...

Thanks. don't be, 2.45 probably brought me as much laughter as it did rage.

Perhaps the video could be of some assistance to devs for the coming patches.

Some nice battle communication you have going on there Blitzi 

[Musti]

2.45 in a nutshell. EPIC!

Sadly, yeah. Hopefully the future will bring us something good, like properly good.

I must say that it pisses me off but not much (nothing?) was done with it since 2.45 release afaik. Hope this video will be enough to make some dev do sometihng about it without stupid excuses like stories about sherman which can survive with most of it's engine cylinders down, 88 not being so effective like people used to believe etc... 

Current tanking system flaws ruin whole fun too often!

That's not hundred percent right Jan, but I don't want to go that much into detail.

What defenetly needs a tweak is Panzerfausts bouncing off from angled faces, because that is just nonesense.

Great video Bltuzwolf, enjoyed it

Skimming the video I'm actually not sure if that is the case. When angle mod kicks in, you get a hitmarker, but no or only little damage. In the video there aren't even hitmarkers, which would indicate that the hits don't even register. That would point to a hitbox issue. Also, many of the vehicles seem to be driving when it happens, so maybe the hitboxes lag or something of the sort? Anyway I'll let people more knowledgable ont he subject figure it out, it's just the impression I'm getting.

If a certain Dev was still around, he would refuse to change anything because:

a) Blitzwolf obviously can't aim!
b) he forgot to write and say in the video "how it feels".
c) he is just a player and does not know what he wants. He is not a game designer!

*Brofist bumps Blitzwolf*
I can feel your pain, buddy. Everytime I battle communicate, I do.
Video added to my favourites. Link it!

[Gotkai]

Excellent Blitzwolf.

Oh my god? Hitbox issues? Sure? NEVER seen that before in FH2 2.45...

Try 42 seconds. And all the other times the hitmarker shows. Just saying.

My personal favourite: 1.08: "Sherman." *Plong* "OKAY!!!"
(*crazy assed flaming in Swedish*)" had that so often.

That is probably one thing that is a bit off with the tanking system. Shouldnt it be the PENETRATION, and not the damage that drops at high angles??? I hardly thing that because a shell hit at a steeper angel it woul make less damage... but it would shure hell have a less chance of going trough the armour.
