Feedback: Tanks
What is going on with this game??
I shot multiple shells from the M1A5 tank at the feet of enemy players with ZERO effect.
This game is SO inconsistent.

- @killCAMPERSSplash damage has been nerfed into nothing. Armor was replaced with paper mache. The physics of driving a 10 ton vehicle over a small rock that flips you over is awesome as well. Vehicles have been wrecked in the game for months in the interests of “balance”… mostly due to a small set of players who think infantry rules the world and are effective complainers. Decent vehicles might force them to have to use teamwork to defeat them as in past games, and they’d rather be lone wolves.
- @ATFGunr I don't know what the devs are thinking. But, they are trashing their own game to satisfy a handful of players.
Without talking about the turret speed (it is getting improved soon) and the restrictive cannon angle.
The only way one can "win at tanks" in BF2042 right now is to hide a distance away behind APS sentinels and sometimes having a repair servant for a good measure
- @UP_Hawxxeye Thanks. I’ll have to keep my distance next time I jump in a tank. The annoying thing about tanks, is that someone can shoot a shoulder mounted rocket at your tank, and they are no bigger than a pixel from where they are shooting from. There is no blast visual when they shoot. The rocket just appears out of thin air a couple seconds before it hits. There should be a visual, just like snipers have a glint appear when they’re aimed at you.
Reduced Splash Damage + reedonkulous netcode = super inconsistent game play, which seems even worse in vehicles and aircraft.
- @Adamonic Agree on all points.
The other day, I was actually having a good match when suddenly the server crashed. I haven’t been that pissed off in a long time.
On average, I might have one decent match a day no matter how many matches I play.
I’ve already given up on Call Of Duty with its horrible servers etc. Battlefield is starting to edge in that direction with the current state of the franchise. Too many broken launches. - @killCAMPERS me is this you? That is exactly how I feel.
I cannot play COD, just terrible right now.
I had a great match the other day, felt great, movement speeds, hit reg, everything, then I get thrown into the MM casino and the next round, I can't kill anyone, literally 1-10 before I had to ALT+F4 out. I am surprised I stayed that long but I was trying to figure out what was going on. There was no logical reason why my hit markers were not registering yet I was being one shot insta killed every time. - @Adamonic Exactly my experience with COD.
When it first launched I was being put on 24 ping servers. Now I’m landing on 73+ ping servers. Which is too laggy and unplayable. So, I end up shutting down COD. I’m close to uninstalling it.

Well the first thing you need to do is switch to HE shells.
They offer increased splash damage against infantry and in 2042 infantry are the main threat to MBTs not other tanks.
The downside to HE shells is their slower velocity and shell arc trajectory which makes taking out choppers a lot more challenging.
And they do less damage against vehicles compared to the Mpat shell.
- @Tank2042Man By the sound of it, the HE shells don't seem like a great choice either. Slower velocity. Less damage. Harder to hit choppers. Well, I'll give them a go and see what happens.
