It's always a treat dealing with these sweeping generalizations about how the game operates.

I ran one test were 9 shots from that weapon resulted in 5 kills under "combat" conditions ( ie NOT a static test with the tanks lined up nice and neat ) and under "combat conditions", in reality or in the game, a 55% shot to kill ratio is hardly ..."it doesn't hit the broad side of a barn" .

The second test, also under game "combat conditions", had 40 missle launches and 24 hits which resulted in 22 kills. That's a 60% shot to hit ratio and, once again, as in the first test, a 55% shot to kill ratio.....all under "combat condtions" and once again this is hardly ...."it doesn't hit the broad side of a barn".

Is it ?

And all that is with the stock weapon we have in the the game now and fired at various ranges. Nothing altered, nothing changed from normal.
