4:06 That was a hit directly into the ammo, that's why it exploded. If you hop into the main menu of Squad 44, you'll find "Armor School". Click on that and you can take a look at X-Ray models of all tanks in the game. There, you can see there where vulnerable components of the tanks (especially ammo, gunner, tracks, engine, fuel tanks) are. Speaking of that, the most reliable way to disable a tank is by disabling its tracks or engine (rear) so that it's immobilised. After that, platoon lead (if your team has one) can call a bomb strike on it or friendly armour can destroy it. Anyway, an immobilised tank is much less scary already. I'd recommend you to try to set the fuel tanks on fire (check armor school). Those force the crew to hop out and extinguish the fire. You can kill them then and if the fire keeps burning, the tank will eventually cook off. Hope this helps!

The Panzerschreck vs Sherman issue (and the AT weapon vs Tank issue as a whole) comes down to hitting components not just the hull, knowing what's behind the armour you're going to hit is the crux of the matter. For example, the last rocket you hit into the Sherman, that's where one of the ammo racks is. If you had hit that from the beginning you'd've either blown it up on the first shot or on the second. On principle if a tank is being annoying, aim for tracks or engine, a stuck tank is a dead tank which can be dealt with extra ammo from a rifleman or a friendly tank or a commander call in. Further to 13:20, as SL you can hold T and use the radial menu to mark as a infantry or tank, as well as place a marker that only your squad can see so they focus it.
@SoulSniperYTАй бұрын
Hey man, thanks for the tips. I fully figured it was more of a matter of incompetence as I really didn't know exactly where to shoot the tank. I assumed the sides and back is best but was just messing around in that game so wasn't too sweaty lol. As for the SL stuff, I didn't realize til the last stretch of the game that I had been promoted to SL lol. But I've played multiple games as SL since then and put down rallies and used the binos with the t menu to mark stuff, etc.

I dont think its really about picking sides (i mean, for some people it obviously is).

No one talked at all and the whole gameplay for us was basically spawn die, spawn die, spawn die... For some people the more arcadey nature of HLL is fun, for others like me, its the complete opposite. In the end both games are completely different experiences.
@SoulSniperYTАй бұрын
There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a preference or only enjoying one of the two games. But there definitely seems to be a one or the other mentality when it comes to these two games. I mean overall I prefer HLL, but that doesn't mean I don't also enjoy S44. And when I need a change of pace or a break from HLL, I love that I can jump into S44 and get a similar but also very different experience. It's awesome. I just wish more people would stop shitting on the one they enjoy less just because they feel it isn't as good. Like the people who sit in the HLL reddit and discord and shit on it saying S44 is better. Or the HLL fanboys who hate on S44. Play what you enjoy and let others enjoy what they like!

@@SoulSniperYT I obviously agree with that. Its basically, to put it that way, common sense. No point in shitting on something thats fundamentally a question of taste and preference. But i still think that this "rivalry" comes from very small part of both communities. While most players have their preference, i doubt that any of them really care enough to go around shitting on the other game (at least, actively). To be fair, ive seen a bit of this on the steam forums, but i dont use reddit so i cant tell properly. I think its also a problem of people judging these two games in comparison with each other. Honestly, i dont think they are really comparable. They are truly vastly different experiences, which cannot be judged on "universal" merits of one game. Meaning, one cannot judge HLL on the terms of criteria that applies to post scriptum. The fundamental ideas behind both games are radically different, and that manifests in the experience being totally different. Its like comparing Battlefield and Call of Duty. It was never ever really comparable, but people still compared them.
