So about Satchel charges.

[Obi-Rotta]

I played as german and planted satchel charge at front armor of Jumbo Sherman 76mm and It got destoyed. Then in another match I played as american.
I planted satchel charge at side of panther, bomb went off and tank got in flames then it revered at my AT mines behind it, they also blew up, but panther was still not destoyed... wtf is this logic?

Place satchels on rear of tanks and you wont have to worry about the logic.

Well you see, the tank player would come here and whine they were killed too easily. I know I know, you snuck up on a tank, put some mines around it, then placed a satchel. Well dumb dumb you should have also called over 3 other AT players to help out.

You were denied the equivalent of a melee kill all because you didn't stab your victim 6 times.

Still requires more than one.

BootYourFace that is not true, I have always been able to blow up tank with 1 charge from behind. But I am just asking that why can I take out enemy heavy tank from front with 1 satchel charge, but I can't take out medium tank from sides.

You can't kill a tiger or jumbo with 1 satchel in the rear.

Tank damage in general is very inconsistent. Sometimes it takes 3-4 rockets to the side of a light tank to kill it. In reality one should be enough. Even at the front.

Yes you can blow them up with one satchel, on any side. But atm there's a bug that sometime even a satchel on a greyhound can't kill it lol

Wtf is this? Am I playing a different game? A satchel will absolutely not 1 shot all tanks.

Its a bit like bullet penetration =) I would guess Black Matter respond to these complaints their usual way "Everything is working as intended... And if you still have complaint send images to us otherwise we wont lift a finger to actually to do some QA".

While they can just open game editor in 10min and check map or a feature in one hour or two. While actually reading debug logs... from the editor.

usually, the bug happen to me on US vehicules (2x today on a stuart and a 76 sherman) and only 1 time on a tiger, otherwise it will always blow them up in 1 charge

Do you put the satchel on the floor, or do you place it on the side of the rear? Because both don't "one-shot-kill" it. You gotta place in on the direct rear.

[Obi-Rotta]

Splash radius in satchel chargers are also ridiculous, you can plant bomb on enemy tank and go hide in trenches that are behind house and you still get killed by its blast radius.

[HungryHunter]

Killed an IS-1 with a satchel charges today. A clean drop on the backside and 30sek later it was gone.
Overall i never saw this thing "miss" even when i put it ones on the side of a tank.
Is it not just 15m onehit? Can it not even kill when placed on the road next to it?

[Vovin]

I had a satchel yesterday on the rear of a panther. I put it on the exhaust, and not directly on the rear, and it didn't destroy the tank. I assume that was the issue, but who knows.

[FrodoScrotom]

Has I said, there's a bug where even on the rear of a light tank like the stuart or the greyhound it won't kill them, so there's definitly something wrong there
