So PZIV's ammo blowing up because of frontal penetration? Thats not realistic bro
I never said frontal penetration, I said destroyed. IMO in SB every penetrating hit should be kill, 2 hits to kill tops.
On any tank, ever.

Besides, try to play Russians, it's not better at all.

In otto carius his book i just read that it took 4 hits of a tiger on a t-34 before the crew gave up.
So tell me, if it has to be so realistic, why do they need to blow up after 1 or 2 hits of a smaller gun?

If you penetrate the front of a pzIV, the shell will still be traveling inside( or the shrapel ) and most litley bounce and ignite the ammo (if suffient kinetic energy is left).

Because the shell stops traveling the moment it penetrates the armour
We need to be able, to throw Thermos out of Spotterplanes.

Not blow up, just get a kill, any normal crew would just bail the tank after the first penetrating hit,no one would sit there just to get killed. Anyway, we had this discussion on these forums many many maaaaaany times before.

True, sometimes its better to play dead till darkness and then run for it instead of run right away and get machinegunned down.

Tiger II Henschel, what a beast! Don't ask me what my team did because they all died, leaving me to defend the base against I'd say 10 enemy tanks. I managed to kill 9 in total (2 kills before my team died), surviving countless hits from T-44s and SU-100s and what not, before they finally encircled me.

The engine sound is ridiculously cool, the sounds of shells bouncing off the front armor and ripping off parts of the sideskirts were deafening! It was amazing. I felt invincible. Shame the game doesn't say how many hits you survived.  ;D

Beginning is a bit weird, I was firing at a T-44 who was apparently behind some kind of object or hill that wasn't rendering for me.
