    Splash damage from Tanks

    This was something that bothered me enough after playing all these weeks that I had to jump on here and make a post asking others what they thought. I have become pretty decent at using the armored units, but one thing keeps driving me nuts. I can't count how many times I've laid a shell no more that 2-3 feet form some guy crawling around w/ AT rockets and they are unscratched. I had onetime a guy was hiding behind a stone rail on the side of a stairway in one of the MEC cities and i put @ least 3-4 shells up there only to have him pop up and take me out. It just seems to me that if an 88mm shell or bigger hits within a few feet in an enclosed area it should do more than it does. But then again , I've had tank duels where i hit the other guy 3 times and I get popped after 2, or even 1 every so often so I guess not everything on this battlefield makes sense. Just had to throw that out after playing this long. Similar experiences anyone...?

    I agree, splash damage from Tanks rounds should be increased..

      I agree and a little more torque for the hills and less damage when you barely hit a little bump...

          Not to mention your tank can't even CLIMB that foot high bump. Apparently EA figures 1,500HP Gas Turbine = 15HP lawnmower

            i agree the damage is feeble, it anoyed me when i first started playing bf2 but ive got used to it. In 1942 an Nam' did the tanks have a much larger area of splash damage or am i just thinking wrong from what seems a distant time?

                The tanks in BF1942 were a load of crap.

                  He's talking about when you go over a bump I think.

                      I am not satisfied with the splash damage either. As a tank you should be a big, infantry murdering machine. Granted C4 and anti-tank rockets hurt but still, the shells should masacre if they land within a few feet of a person.

                        I think the tanks are focused on anti-veichle not murdering troops as we have APC's and Jeeps that do the job very well........ but MORE SPLASH DAMAGE! please :evil:

                            Haha, yes I know it is aimed for that. But really, this is made like a triangle. Infantry is inferior to armor. Armor inferior to air. And air inferior to, uh, AA and noob pilots :)

                            Just saying that you should have your butt handed to you when you are staring at a tank.

                              Maybe they could make 2 different kinds of rounds like in Point of Existence. That way you can change shells when needed.
