If you want to hit anything All WW2 tanks could fire their main armament on the move - but couldn't really hit anything if they did. Of course success depended on the speed and the surface they were travelling on. But if you
The only thing unrealistic about the tank, is that you can move and fire the cannon while the tank is moving. Other than that awesome sounds, skills, and game.
@tatetalk Well, you can actually drive and fire a tank at the same time irl aswell. Ofc, that doesnt mean that they do it. Tank crewmen are tought to always stop to fire and then move cause otherwise its pretty much impossible to hit. Try running while aiming and shooting with a normal rifle, not very easy. So yeah, its ofc realistic that they can drive and shoot but that dont mean that you should :P
@tatetalk ah that is very much possible. But the "key" word being "some" :P But yes that is very much possible, I only know that some could fire while moving.
@tatetalk common mistake that people make is that tanks couldn't fire and move. all german tanks had the ability to fire and move at, "fire speed", or half speed. could still fire at full speed but you're not going to hit much that way. by 1944 if you had to stop in the open to fire you were dead meat.
@yajairaslave derp derp..not even modern battle tanks like the leo2 can drive and fire when the stabilisation system is off and u have to do everything manually...even at low speeds. so i think ur wrong about this one. leo 2 even has modern track suspension and still its hard to hit on the move, or merely impossible..im a tank gunner on leo2 so i know it
@Ultimatepanzer T-34 vs Tiger isnt really a fair game though. Put the Tiger up against an IS-2 instead and then you got a fair fight :P Heavy vs heavy
@Ultimatepanzer That may be, now I am only talking from "inside" the game so to speak. Put up a T-34 against a tiger and you'll get the snot kicked out of you any day (unless the tiger driver is a 10 y/o without hands or eyes). I really dont know "the stats" of the real tanks exept that both the tiger and IS were classed as heavy and the T 34 as medium. the IS-2 is many times refered to as the Tiger's russian equality aswell :) I also looked up the Tiger II, it had a 88 mm like the Tiger 1
@Ultimatepanzer Although even though the Tiger II had in fact the same 88 cannon while the Russian had 128. The Tiger II's cannon tube was alot longer then the Tiger 1 which gave it a much higher muzzle velocity and also, atleast in theory, a more accurate shot. So in short, the Tiger II could pretty much destroy any of the allied tanks but it lacked in other areas like maintanance and mobility. Something that the T-34 among others used :)
@pepparmostheelder King Tiger not only had a longer barrel than the 88 L/56 of the Tiger 1, but a longer shell casing for more powder. The longer barrel isnt what gave the 88 L/71 the higher velocity, it was the more powder.
That said, the Tiger 1's L/56 88 was more than adaquate to take out any allied tank at long range, to the last day of the war.
This game has some much tactics involved, You feel like you are playing with a Martial combatants as oppsosed to the lone wolf CoD players. YOu can just tell when in a game you are playing with people who have spent time in the Military.
to bad the tiger dont sound like this in the actual game without modding (pretty sure there is a soundmod 4 the game to do this) but still totaly worth your time to play this game i bought it 4 the tank combat and im loving the attention to detail 4 the infantry
ohh man i remember how much fun i had playing this game online! i remember 1 time me and a buddy in a tiger on the battle of kursk map i think killed like 30+ tanks! although the tank was destroyed like my friend coldunt move the tank because the tracks were destroyed and basically the tank was almost destroyed! man i dont know how many rounds just bounced off the tiger! we must have stayed at 1 place for like 30 minutes the ammo was almost out if only if we had another 30 minutes=[
ok most people are impressed by the tiger tank sound in this game. but im impressed withis your skill haha you killed like every tank in sight. whenever i try. it just bounces off them or takes like 3 shots. im bad at being a tank crewman in this game
@CaptainHammerlatte1 The sounds came directly from the worlds only running Tiger, at bovington museum, England. In fact you can hear the very tacks this recorded from, just type in and watch "driving a Tiger tank". Enjoy the footage.
At first install Red ORhestra Ostfront 41-45, later install Darkest Hour mod
(You will have two games: Red ORchestra Ostfront where u can play Russians against german in Ostfront, and Darkest Hour where you can play Allied against German in WestFront)
my computer is shit? yea if you want to call $4300 alienware shitty. And I will go play this game, since I can probably play up to 25+ clients and still not have a problem having low FPS.
yea your not 25, because 25 year does not act like a 14 or 13 year old (which is you) and cares about gameplay. Because a 25 year old would understand it is not about graphics but more about gameplay.
that is because you are a kid. I can easily tell just by the way you talk and the form of your vocab. And this game does not look bad at all. Your just a typical "kid" who puts graphics ahead of gameplay because you are a follower, and follower's, you do what everyone else does.
And why don't you admit your 14 years faggot?

game looks like shit, it maybe good by your standards but you put them pretty fucking low, Playing Battlezone on my Voodoo 2 looked better than this shit lol

With the computer I have I can run 5-6 clients of the most high ended game up to date. I could care less what the fuck you played, because I can easily go get it now.
You must be excited, your mustache is probably coming in very soon. I know it looks patchy right now, that's why you're so angry. Once your whiskers start coming in you'll relax and won't need to blow off steam on youtube, just because someone says a game looks like shit shouldn't anger you, it's your hormones. I know you think your young hormones have nothing to do with this, but trust me, you're in your rebellions stage youngster.
No I dont have a mustache, but If I wait about 2-3 weeks I can get it about half way to full.
And how am I angry? going crazy trying to think of insults that have nothing to do with what I'm talking about, I think you are the pissed off one here.
And now your talking about young hormones when you were just talking about me having a full mustache? how are those two possible at same time.
uneducated about the human body AND your a hypocrite, All signs of a 14 year old.
umm no that is actually normal, why don't you go ahead and google mustache's? and you will see they take many weeks to grow out fully (for a average person)

RO is a lifeline to anyone with tactical thinking who wants a multiplayer experience.
@chrisiv84 You sir, speak words of truth. I opt for realism in games (RO, DH, ArmA 2, and hell I even play the BF series from time to time), graphics DO NOT make a game. Does MW2 look good? Sure. Does it require skill to play? Not in the slightest. Because of this I hate call of duty.
@zombiehunter96 it does require skills. But a different sort of skills. when you talk to a player that does play MW2 the only skill they know of is the ability to aim, maybe doing a headshot while performing a backflip, in their world that would "PWN" whatever the feck that means. In Darkest Hour theres a whole new set of skills required, which in turn, 15 year old players cannot achieve, and just end up quitting. Im actually happy they don't, if you ever seen MW2 community, you'll understand.
Through the eyes of an adolescent, games which require skill and cunning tend to look like shit. Orchestra/Darkest Hour feel like Disneyland compared to ARMA2 and Prject Reality Mod. ^^
As much as I would like to agree with your comment, I cant deny that I am a big battlefield fan, not so much of the new ones but games like bf2 and vietnam were amazing.
History channel is interviewing the guys who fought the tanks: German, British, American. Everyone of them said the best battlefield tank in that war was Tiger. I'll take their word for it...they have more credibility than most hacks on this site! :-)
I never said strong armour, and its armour was quite easily penetrated by AT guns and later models of allied armour, the crew being well trained and experienced doesnt mean the tank is good. Its like if there was a good driver in a bad car, still doesnt make the car any better. Also, I said the gun could outrange most allied tanks "early in the war" later the allies. Fighting against inferior tanks does not mean it has good armour. The Tiger was very vulnerable for many reasons.
Its armor was never easily penetrated. Its gun could outrange most allied tanks even late in the war. And anyway, early, late, all that doesnt even matter...fact is this tank, thanks to armor, firepower, and crew, was able to hold a 6 to 1 kill ratio till the end of the war.
Actualy the allies main gun didnt work for shit on the tiger unless they got a lucky rear shot it would most likely bounce off. The brits added a bigger gun for this reason which was called the firefly and that one could take a tiger out alot easier.
Yes Tubester...which means its not a bullshit tank. A bullshit tank is one that didnt do anything, but is hailed as great. The Tiger has, as you say, strong crews, strong armor and a strong gun...which means it is not a bullshit tank.
Now, if it had a weak gun only destroying armored cars, and if it had weak armor but against infintry and armored cars weak armor doesnt matter, but everyone was saying its a great tank, well then it would be a bullshit tank.
Ummmm, no, Tiger was in fact bullshit tank, the only reason why it was at all effective was because of the well trained crews and many battles on the eastern front being fought against weaker tanks, along with the fact that it has a decent gun that can outrange most allied armour early in the war.
LOL tubester101we says the Tiger is a bullshit tank. Then he says:
"Only reason the Tiger was effective was because of the well trained crews and many battles against weaker tanks (meaning it has good armor), along with the fact that it has a decent gun that can outrange most allied armour"
LOL, good crews, good armour, and god gun...in other words, not a bullshit tank! LOLOLOLXXXX
wtf, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. if it was better then allied armour it's not a fucking bullshit tank, man do you realise how fucking retarded that comment is?
Tiger turret speed and reload speed is well accelerated vs. RO:OST. Was this a change you added or what Darkest Hour will give us? If so, DH better give us a lot of Shermans and instant respawn. Even though its accurate where we lost 3 Shermans for every 1 Tiger with the fourth got him...it isn't going to make for fun gameplay! 3LW
The German tanks in the stock RO are a travesty. The AB mod fixed all that, and the DH mod incorporates an even better AB as standard. According to Tripwire, and their "exhaustive research), it took around 30 seconds to reload the Tiger's cannon. Ramm Jaeger, the chief developer at Tripwire, is a lying cheating scumbag.
I don't know how the Allies got their tank crews to fight. This video is an accurate example how German technology bent Allied tanks over and screwed them in the rear. If I was an American or British tank crewmen in Normandy, I would try to get a transfer or get injured. Call me a coward but it would be the smart thing to do. Villers-Bocage and Barkmanns Corner are good examples too.
while it's true that defensively the German armor had the upper hand with thick armor plating, they were also surprisingly slow. Allied armor was significantly faster and could out-maneouver (sorry can't figure out the spelling)the German Panzers with ease.
First off, they had conviction, secondly, most Allied tankers NEVER saw a German tank. I know someone who fought through Italy and France and he said his unit never once came across a German tank.
You have to remember that the Allies outproduced the Germans significantly, and that the Germans had only a fraction of those tanks remaining when the western Allies invaded France. There was literally 20 Allied tanks for every German tank, and so about 14 of 20 tanks never fought another tank.
I love that. Did you just overlay the sound of the "driving the Tiger" video from YouTube? Or is this sound really incorporated into Darket Hour? Because this is what a Tiger really sounds like indeed!

I never said strong armour, and its armour was quite easily penetrated by AT guns and later models of allied armour, the crew being well trained and experienced doesnt mean the tank is good. Its like if there was a good driver in a bad car, still doesnt make the car any better. Also, I said the gun could outrange most allied tanks "early in the war" later the allies. Fighting against inferior tanks does not mean it has good armour. The Tiger was very vulnerable for many reasons.

Its armor was never easily penetrated. Its gun could outrange most allied tanks even late in the war. And anyway, early, late, all that doesnt even matter...fact is this tank, thanks to armor, firepower, and crew, was able to hold a 6 to 1 kill ratio till the end of the war.

even though t34's were better than say a Panzer IV......better tactics and crew defeated numerous t34s.

Actualy the allies main gun didnt work for shit on the tiger unless they got a lucky rear shot it would most likely bounce off. The brits added a bigger gun for this reason which was called the firefly and that one could take a tiger out alot easier.

Depends on the allied tank. A Sherman Firefly would take out a Tiger 1.

Yes Tubester...which means its not a bullshit tank. A bullshit tank is one that didnt do anything, but is hailed as great. The Tiger has, as you say, strong crews, strong armor and a strong gun...which means it is not a bullshit tank.
Now, if it had a weak gun only destroying armored cars, and if it had weak armor but against infintry and armored cars weak armor doesnt matter, but everyone was saying its a great tank, well then it would be a bullshit tank.
calimar28 2 years ago
Ummmm, no, Tiger was in fact bullshit tank, the only reason why it was at all effective was because of the well trained crews and many battles on the eastern front being fought against weaker tanks, along with the fact that it has a decent gun that can outrange most allied armour early in the war.
tubester101we 2 years ago
LOL tubester101we says the Tiger is a bullshit tank. Then he says:
"Only reason the Tiger was effective was because of the well trained crews and many battles against weaker tanks (meaning it has good armor), along with the fact that it has a decent gun that can outrange most allied armour"
LOL, good crews, good armour, and god gun...in other words, not a bullshit tank! LOLOLOLXXXX

Silnius 2 years ago
Tiger turret speed and reload speed is well accelerated vs. RO:OST. Was this a change you added or what Darkest Hour will give us? If so, DH better give us a lot of Shermans and instant respawn. Even though its accurate where we lost 3 Shermans for every 1 Tiger with the fourth got him...it isn't going to make for fun gameplay! 3LW

The German tanks in the stock RO are a travesty. The AB mod fixed all that, and the DH mod incorporates an even better AB as standard. According to Tripwire, and their "exhaustive research), it took around 30 seconds to reload the Tiger's cannon. Ramm Jaeger, the chief developer at Tripwire, is a lying cheating scumbag.

You forget my friend Shermans excel in country side terrain.
So long as your drivers zerg rush the tank you will be able overcome enemy tigers.
also M10's should be watching over open terrain.

I don't know how the Allies got their tank crews to fight. This video is an accurate example how German technology bent Allied tanks over and screwed them in the rear. If I was an American or British tank crewmen in Normandy, I would try to get a transfer or get injured. Call me a coward but it would be the smart thing to do. Villers-Bocage and Barkmanns Corner are good examples too.

while it's true that defensively the German armor had the upper hand with thick armor plating, they were also surprisingly slow. Allied armor was significantly faster and could out-maneouver (sorry can't figure out the spelling)the German Panzers with ease.

Tell that to the thousands of allied tankers who lost their lives in hopeless battles against German armor.
PanzerAce88mm 3 years ago
First off, they had conviction, secondly, most Allied tankers NEVER saw a German tank. I know someone who fought through Italy and France and he said his unit never once came across a German tank.
You have to remember that the Allies outproduced the Germans significantly, and that the Germans had only a fraction of those tanks remaining when the western Allies invaded France. There was literally 20 Allied tanks for every German tank, and so about 14 of 20 tanks never fought another tank.

I love that. Did you just overlay the sound of the "driving the Tiger" video from YouTube? Or is this sound really incorporated into Darket Hour? Because this is what a Tiger really sounds like indeed!

Yes, driving sound is from tiger video.
