If in your opinion I have misrepresented in any pls explain which "People are too stupid".
Pls explain in your opinion which TD is better Panther or JPIV.
Because so far according to you Panther is easier to use and can do more while JP need to be fully supported.
And since this is about Pershing, Panther is better at dealing with Pershing.
As for your suggestion for M26 to have a crew that is not going to happen because it would be exploited to by the limit of 1.
please, Panther is not a classical TD like Jpz4. It is prem-medium tank or high weight medium that forcus on AT department.
Because panther nature, He can stand alone with EVERY ALIES GENARAL TANKs and Inf ( with pintle MG).
Is that make sense to you ?
- The idea of An exclusive Crews for M26 ( joke on you, I wrote "Pattton crew" for a reason) come from COH1 mod ( some COH2 mod have it too, I guess). M26 have a carry slot ( only carry 3 model) that carry Exclusive crew and major. that Crew take same popcap as major when pop out tank.
+ When M26 carry them, he had 100% performance and a new ability( maybe "on me" or break retreat skill on Campagin),small aura. If they get out then M26 performance will drop to 65-70% ( only driver and gunner stay in while tank commander, radio mand and loader get out) very logical indeed.
+ Vet 0 will have repair speed of RE vet 0, repair of vet 3 is same as Tankcrew vet 2 and unlock critical repair at vet 2 but faster active time than normal crew. You can put passive sprint and combat stats on vet 1 in case of losing M26 so that they are still useful on battle field.
+ Major can jump in too, give M26 ability to call IR pathfinder arty strike style (only 2 fast 155/240mm shell for 65 ammu, global cooldown with major arty barrage ), smoke nades ( less smoke shell than normal M4) and "On Me" ability.
- This idea can make M26 more unility, flexibale, mobility for it cost wihout giving any raw stat buff to acchive the goal "M26 suppose to lose to tiger". It also fix the cheese " jump out Jump in " USF and repair problem (so it can stay at 960hp/270 armor).
