Your only duty is to pay attention to everything that moves, rotate the gun, and then point it to where you think the enemy is. From the gunner position, you get an even smaller field of view, as you’re practically looking through the gun’s sight while the driver operates the tank. But step up into the gunner’s seat, where you’ll have to decide what kind of ammunition to load and where to fire, and that pulse goes up a notch. Similarly, you’ll want to bring your vehicle back to base to resupply ammunition and deal with repairs whenever you have to.Īs a driver, you don’t get to focus on fighting aside from firing your gun to suppress whatever is in front of you. ![]() And trust me, you don’t want to be a tanker running around the battlefield with just a pistol in your hand, hoping that you’ll get another vehicle. Resources, if it wasn’t clear, play an essential role in this realistic World War II experience, and that’s why it’s crucial not to waste anything. I don’t know what happened, I just died, as I was handling the gun, likely firing at nothing. ![]() I am happy to report I did trick someone into using their anti-tank weapons on my Panther, but I had to wait for minutes to get the job done. An unmanned tank stuck in the woods still counts as an in-play tank for your team, and you’d better make sure you destroy it. You see, you need resources to spawn other tanks, and you have a limited number of active tanks on the map to simulate a real World War II battle as closely as possible. The only responsible thing I could do was to make enough noise, and hopefully take out a few enemies in the process, to trick them into killing the tank. I was foolish enough to think I could save the armor and navigate it through the trees, but boy was I wrong. In one instance, a driver blocked a Panther tank in a densely wooded area. One wrong move, and you’ll make mistakes that will end up costing the lives of your teammates or your own. That means you get a limited periscope view, and that might not be enough to get you all the information you need about what’s happening around you. Also, you only get to experience the first-person view of a tank driver. You also operate the front machine gun, although there are no sights and you’ll never know if you hit something, and need to familiarize yourself with the map so you know what roads to take to get to the next objective as fast as possible. If you’ve got a microphone, you’ll probably want to talk to the gunner who’ll tell you when to stop, where to go, and what to face. Also, you’ll have to forget about frags, and have a lot of patience.Īs a tank driver, you have to start and stop the engine, shift gears up and down manually, and make sure you always face the enemy. In either case, your role is very clearly defined, and it’s teamwork that will help you win. When you join the armor team, you can either be a tank leader, which means you get an actual weapon, not just a pistol and a pair of binoculars that can trigger support actions or a crew member, which means you’ll be driving or operating the tank’s gun. What they pulled off, based on my limited time with the beta, is incredible - a gaming experience that will force you to rethink everything you thought you knew about shooters - especially World War II shooters.
