I use this tactic in World of Tanks and sometimes it works quite well
How it works is like this - the bigger tank rams a smaller tank and will crush it/cause x amount of damage, if both tanks are roughly the same they will cause x amount of damage, depending on HP left 1 tank may die, light tanks ramming bigger tanks tend to cause no damage and actually inflict damage on themselves because its the lighter tank
So i was in a skirmish with a Madrugar with nearly 10k armor and i saw a milita tank out with around 2.5k armor so instead of killing it with my turret i decided to ram it
What happened next is stupid and needs to be fixed
I rammed the hell out of it and it blew up his tank and also took all my shield and armor which is over 10k
A 2.5k armor milita tank somehow kills my 10k armor tank when i rammed into it
How?
With my tank being the obv stronger tank with armor up the ass how did it blow up?
The impact takes what maybe 2-3k armor and just say the explosion takes another 2-3k that means i still have around 3k left for actual undamaged tank yet it still blows up
It makes no sense |

Anyway, Why are you ramming tanks? Dude, just barely scratching a wall can do 1k damage to you. Why would you run into another EM shielded, armored vehicle using who-knows-what for power and propulsion?
Because why not
I saw the shield/armor stats and thought il have a go, im not too fussed that i lost a tank but come on i should have whacked it and come out with at least half armor and not blown up |

Ramming a real world tank, you may break it, but it won't explode. Everything in DUST explodes (well except clones, which seem to just turn to ash).
Also, yeah, physics are off right now.
I accounted for that
I have a 10k tank at least and i rammed something with like 3k if tht, tank explosions in this game cause like 3k if that
I know LAV explosions cause about 1.5-2k damage
I should have had HP left to spare after smashing a paper tank like that |
