Re: SNiped a tank

wth how did you do that was the tank heavily damaged or did you just hit the right spot?

Re: SNiped a tank

may be it's already about to blow by someone's AT.
btw the last one who shot always got the credit.

Re: SNiped a tank

what did you hit it with?

Re: SNiped a tank

i've done this with a pistol, same to a BH. How? watch them and if they get hit and are about to blow up, shoot at them with whatever you have. Just today I got a chopper kill with my g36c, it was on fire and just shot it, and since i was the last one to damage it when it went boom, I get the kill :p. Same thing if you shoot them and they crash into something, you get the kill

Re: SNiped a tank

its different with a chopper than a tank, with choppers you can kill them from full health with any weapon(knife and shock paddles excluded) with a tank thats not how it is. anything less than a grenade (explosives) or apc cannon (barral fired round).

Re: SNiped a tank

yeah, I"ve shot down choppers with the sniper rifle.. among other rifles.. I"ve even gotten a chopper with a pistol.. when I knew it was about to crash, I just popped off a bunch of pistol rounds... when it crashed, I got the credit.

Re: SNiped a tank

read what Claydough writes.

He claimes he shot a TANK.
And not a vehicle that is known to take damage from rifles (like helos, jeeps etc.)


Now did it realy say "claydough[M95]enemy" ?
or just "you[Killed]xx" ?


is it by any chance possible that you threw a grenade at him, he ran over your claymore, or that you shot lets say a Jeep or Helo which right after it, crashed into the tank ?


describe the situation more precisely... please

Re: SNiped a tank

Here's what likely happened:

The tank was already on fire from damage from another source (tank, ERYX, etc...), and the game registered his shot as the last thing to hit the vehicle before it exploded, therefore crediting him with the kill.

It happened to me with the G36 a few days ago. I was spamming the crew compartment on a blackhawk when someone hit it with a pair of Stingers. It gave me the kill because my bullet was the last thing to hit it before it exploded.

Re: SNiped a tank

and again:

you get credit from DAMAGING things in the last second.
But a tank normally recieves NO DAMAGE whatsoever from non-explosive rounds.

you, cs-evolution, shot at a Blackhawk, and ALL choppers recieve damage from rifles and even Pistols... but Tanks and APCs do NOT...

and thats the whole point of the topic here.(to figure out wether there maybe is a spot on the tanks that is vulnerable to normal rifle shots)

this thread is NOT about Helos.

Re: SNiped a tank

I realize this thread is not about helos. I'm suggesting even though the round didn't damage the tank, it still was registered as a hit. I'm not a moron, you don't need to lecture me.

Nah, it's just one of the collision bugs man.

Re: SNiped a tank

Ive killed many vehicles and tanks with the sniper rifle....just shoot the barrel or white gas tank trailer as it drives by, BOOM!! Actaully its a good idea at the beginning of a round, use the M95 and stay near barrels and gas trailer (or whatever they are), when someone runs or drives by, shoot it. Alot of people have no clue that being next to a barrel is a bad idea :)

Re: SNiped a tank

Actually, you're all wrong. The same manufacturer of the tank also made the "death star", used many centuries from now.

The death star's weakness was brought about from a small, quarter sized hole near the rear of the tank. This "exhaust portal", when hit by a sniper round, will result in a one-shot kill. :) :)

Seriously, I agree with csevolution, even if the round doesn't cause 'damage' to the tank, it does still make contact with it, giving him the kills since it was the last thing to hit it. Its not like the sniper round flew past the tank, the bullet made contact with it, period.
