Yet it [Puma] still gets owned by the US AA truck in a 1v1 fight. Amazing
It's the other way around, believe me. There are not many ways for an american player to chase and kill a well microed Puma. Bazookas, AT guns, and basically every vehicle and tank (except Jackson) can be avoided or kited to death.
In a competetive game, the Puma should only die to surprises and ambushes: M20 mines, a pre-patch demo charge, a Stuart getting close and using his stun ability, a tank rush from multiple angels and - my personal favourite, since i only knew about it since yesterday - slowing the puma down with smoke rifle nades and then finish it off.
This is a really interesting shoutcast that shows how brutally efficient the Puma can molest even the heaviest tanks: [youtube]
