Default 1 thing i hate about bf-1942 - 09-11-2002, 11:03 AM

I hate the fact that piss ant infantry can take out a tank by grenade spamming it. Correct me if im wrong but bf-42 has an anti tank infantry, so why the hell can normal infantry guys take it out quicker than a guy who has a specialised weapon for dealing with armour?

I seen 3 axis tanks today get caught out all together with about 4 allies nade spamming the tanks and taking them all out before they could do anything about it. With any luck their first patch fixes this. I don't see the point of anti armour infantry if normal grunts can do the same job in half the time. cry:

I can definitely see that being an annoyance.

I can't run the game anyway, so I can't see it for myself...ah well.

the rockets are just useless, i saw more people getting infantry kills with them, or running up to the tank and placing dynamite on it.

maybe it's for "balance" where "there aren't always anti-tank people avalible"

If tanks were not affected by grenades (the way it should be) then teams would HAVE to have anti armour classes running about thats the whole point.

Pisses me off when im spinning along in my tank and some fucking enemy comes runing TOWARDS my fucking tank throwing mini nukes (grenades).

I mean how many other games do you see infantry attacking tanks with grenades? If they fucked over the tiger im gonna be pissed. That thing should eat and shite most any other tank in the game even with numbers against it.


Another retarded thing is jeeps ramming tanks and the tanks exploding, when this first happened to me i gave my monitor a good long eek: stare.

as far as i can tell the tanks are pretty identical in firepower and armor for each class on each side.

i saw some newbies try to grenade a m113 in operation flashpoint once, they umm...didn't make it angel:

i seriously hope bf1942 is moddable, i haven't heard anything about mods except for some TCs which confuse me a bit considering i heard there will be no SDK release at all, but there are a lot of little things that could make it more enjoyable

One thing I don't like is that it's hard to sneak up on the enemy, or even have a good sniper spot, I mean, if i'm the allies, then as i'm looking around the screen, I see red lettering, then I know the enemy is there. I don't mind seeing my own guys lettering ( like seeing your teams avator in MOHAA ). But it takes SOME fun out of the game if it's easy as hell to find out where the enemy is, anyone else agree ?

You must remember that these are Chi-Ha (aka Jap paper-tanks)
they only had about 6mm of armor in the back and 8 on the side or something close to that.

Running into tanks with jeeps is the best part of the game

Are you talking about singleplayer?
Because in multiplayer the red letters come up only when you bring you sights right on the target or if the target is really close.
