new version 5.0...jeeps are more vunerable ...interesting... i was begining to think i might be paranoid ( i'm just kidding geeze )

german 222 is still 'funnycar'. Moves fast and hard to kill.

mosh

[AmmoSgt]

ok , so i am not kidding , no sooner did somebody announce that US jeeps have been dumbed down in 5.0 on this thread ..another thread starts trying to up the cost of US Infantry .. it just doesn't stop

too tough??

heh, i've found myself reminiscing back to the days of SP-1 where the jeeps had just a smattering of armor protection on the front grill so could at least deflect some small arms fire.

Now, everytime i poke the nose of my jeep out in hopes of mowing down some impetious inf units i either eat a PaK or a bullet hits my radiator putting me out of commission!!! :rolleyes:

Now i just hide them till the shooting stops and the smoke clears

Jeeps? What jeeps?!? I'm having to manuevre my PzIIIE to get rear shots at Mae Wests... while they sucefull shot at my little PzIs and Pz 35s (Pzs IIIE were a little far, but I guess that those 50cal will call it butter...).... and I thought I was lucky to get USA in 39 for a campaign 39-49...

I think something should have wrong in the download - I didn't manage to get a good campaign running!!...

Just my 2cents worth, while its still fresh in my mind. Just got finished a multiplayer game, Ge vs US, 5/45. I (german) riddled a 50cal jeep at about 10 hexes away with a quad 20mm AA gun, hit 5 times before it blew. 5 times! The jeep wasn't moving or dug in. Now I could see getting shot by a MG34, but a quad 20mm? In the same turn a M3 Halftrack took 4 hits from a 88mm/71 AT gun before it blew.

i guess my main gripe (and from what ive read its a mute point now) is that ANY thinly armored vehicle be it jeep or truck what ever nationality should be toasted when running a muck through enemy lines....that was my point...........sometimes these threads take on a life of there own......kind of on the same note motorcycles seem to melt away fairly easy, which they should . usually a couple shots from almost anything will do the trick , which to me is right. no protection .....pay the price. with v5 sounds like one must put together better recon teams other then the cheapest vehicles.....
