German Rifle can Kill a Matilda II#175

The German Rifle can kill a Matilda II. This has been going on for several campaigns now. Under no circumstances, no way, no how, should a rifle be able to kill a Matilda II. It needs to be fixed ASAP. If an allied Rifle killed a Tiger, CRS would shut the server down immediately and fix it ;)

Question , Were the hatchs open?

Another question , Were you the Matilda that was killed by a Rifle?

No, I was not the one killed. I saw it happen though. Nily5000 killed Dontmove with a rifle in Matilda II. I have seen Spinx08 do it as well .

No hatches were open. Dontmove’s tank blew up so it wasn’t a matter of killing driver for example. Stats confirmed the incident.

When did this happen? As dontmove has not logged on today

Also Nily5000 has not logged into the game since 2024-02-23

That specific example was a couple of maps ago. You can check the stats easily. A variety of troops with a DE Rifle have killed the Matty.
Dontmove posted it in Gods of War. Scroll up.

Follow these guidelines when reporting bugs:

1; Personal Experience: Only report issues you have personally encountered.
2; Reproducibility: Describe the steps to reproduce the bug.
3; Platform and Version: Specify the platform (PC, Mac).
4; Evidence: Include any relevant evidence (screenshots, videos) if available.

Avoid Duplicate Reports: Check existing reports to avoid duplicates.
Accurate reports help the development team prioritize and address issues efficiently

That is hogwash OHM. Like I said, if an allied rifle killed a Tiger, you would shut down the server and immediately fix it. I know it would be a quick fix, that is for sure. You are so biased, it’s unbelievable.
The stats prove my point. Did you even bother to look at what Dontmove posted in Gods of War? Of course you didn’t…. Did you even bother looking at Stats? Of course you didn’t. Here is the clip from the stats. German Rifleman 144 1 144 Apr 15 15:10 240,479 3,022 79.58. Of course that is only one this map, but the DE Rifle has killed the Matilda II 3,022 times historically. There is your proof, now do something about it. Do I need to get Dontmove to post because he was the one who was killed by the rifle in a Matilda II? That is ABSURD!!

@Dan McAfee Any rifle of any country can kill a tank with a HE stachel, whether its a Matilda, Sherman, Tiger or a Stug.

Until you have more solid proof that in these cases, an actual rifle killed the matilda– you’re just complaining about years old HE satchel trick that can kill any moving tank. Also, which to my knowledge has been acknowledged and trying to be fixed

Lmao @ McAfee, I am surprised ohm even reads your messages.
You demonstrate that you have zero idea how finding+reporting+fixing bugs works. It is ok though because it is possible to learn if you are interested.
The stats do not prove anything and I can show you why on the training server if you would like. I can also help you bug test and show you how you can do it without requiring all of CRS secret tools that us plebs are not allowed to use for some reason.

Just let me know you can message me on discord

Post any relevant videos that you have and if they are long then please provide what time the footage is at. If you do not know how to post the videos here let me know I can teach you how to take video clips etc its super easy and very useful you will use this knowledge all of the time once you learn it.
no hard feelings
your close, personal friend,

First, what I saw and what dontmove experienced was a DE rifle shot from a building window about 30-40 yards away. I was guarding his tank from sappers. We both saw it. This happened a couple of maps ago and dontmove posted about it. During that map, both Sphinx08 and Nily5000 had MANY rifle kills on Matilda II’s. Neither has played much this map.

Second, an HE Satchel charge should under no circumstances kill a heavy tank. I have never seen this done and it has never happened to me personally and I have 100,000+ deaths. I would have to see a video of that because I don’t believe it for one second. I find that highly suspect. However, if it is happening, it should be fixed ASAP.

Third, thank you lovewing, I would love to know how to take video clips. I have a geForce video card and use the program in that software by hitting Alt-Z or something like that. Whatever it is, it truly sucks. Please do find me on Discord or drop me a note. Thanks for your offer.

S!

I just did a test on the matty that checks the armor for holes or gaps where a ray could get past. It’s tight. Other than having the drivers head exposed, drivers hatch open (or commander out) I can’t see a way for a rifle round to get in. As to the HE saps killing tanks, I too would love a video how to on that because I’ve never been able to replicate it. Having a vid how to would be a huge help toward geting that fixed.

Clip from couple patches ago. @Dan McAfee Better start believing.

@Oldzeke You can PM me if you want more details. I was going to go and film some testing, but everytime I try to contribute, the training server is broken.

Thank you :) That is a satchel clipping inside of a tank.

Thanks for posting Gretnine. I am stunned. That of course should never happen. It looks like the charge glitched into the tank? That definitely needs a fix.

Of course that still doesn’t explain how Sphinx08 and Nily5000 can kill a Matilda with a rifle shot. Special programming of theirs?
