And why would 222 need any utility of bazooka?
It already have upgrade that allows it to effortlessly win against more expensive light vehicles like M20 or greyhound. I'd gladly trade M20 bazooka for armament that actually is useful against light armor.
it doesn't need it. the bazooka should still be taken into consideration though as it does have an impact. 222 can kill the M20 but die to the crew bazookas for example. i've had that happen to me from both sides.
Thats not really the take away, since again the 222 also has a cannon. M20 doesnt. The 222 statisticly is a better anti infantry vehicle than the M20. Way better.
I dont know the stats or the math behind the cannon's damage but the Cannon isnt awful against infantry at close range. maybe at longer ranges... but at close range the cannon is nasty from my own ostheer experience.
the cannon is meh against infantry and tends to fuck up the MG. it's not a significant change to the dps afaik. the stats don't seem to be on coh2-stats.com though. the 222 does have better dps but MUCH lower survivability than the M20 for multiple reasons. if it dies it's not doing damage anymore. that does come down some to player skill but there still RNG, pathing, etc.
