    Help killing tanks

    Hey guys I've been readin the forum for a little bit and love and it and figured it was time to post. My question is with the AT what is the best place to hit a tank to kill it quickly? Sometimes It'll only take two AT shots to kill a fully healed tank and sometimes it seems like it takes 4. Any suggestions?

      If you wanna kill the tank in 2 AT rockets then you can use either the front of the tank or the back of it. You have to shoot right into the tracks of the tank, not from the sides but from the front or from the back. If you hit it well, the rocket will do half damage to the tank, which means the second one will put him out, I tested this myself and tried it in multiplayer and works great.

        If the turret is facing away from you, you will always do 1/2 damage no matter where the body of the tank is facing. you will do 1/4 damage to sides and front if turret is facing you, youll do 1/2 damage to rear if turret is facing you. So.. wait till turret faces away from you before you fire or hit it in the rear. Didnt know about the tracks, Ill try that out soon.

                  also if you can get above it, there are vents/exhausts on the rear.
                  hit them and youll cause sh** loads of damage.

                    I have heard that if you manage to fire a rocket straight down into the commanders hatch (where the machine gun is up top), that you will kill the crew inside.. Havn't been able to test it

                      I dunno know if the Tank was fully healed or not, but once a tank was coming towards me down a slight slope. I fired the AT rocket but I shot a bit high so I lowered my sights and the rocket followed, hitting the gunner and blowing the tank up. Don't know if it was a fluke or not but it sure worked.

                              I've had it a few times where the other tank was coming down an incline (or I was backing up and the tail climbed up a bit on a ridge) and a shot into the turret will take it out with 1 shot.

                              The sad part is it seems the incline doesn't have to be hardly anything.

                              If two tanks are on different heights, but both are level, no effect. Their code just looks for the target tank to be not perfectly flat.
