Reactive armor is easily one of the most overpowered things in the game.

of course! Do you know how fun it is to make a javelin (after being target painted from a soflam) end up hitting your RA instead of the top of a tank? Oh god the rage mails. Good times.

do you just turn to the side?

is this why sometimes I swear I get hit by and RPG and nothing happens

[hgpucom]

Yeah pretty much. For rpgs and other tanks firing at me, i just turn to my tank left or right when ever someone shoots my RA off on one side so they end up shooting the other sides with RA still on. If a jav is coming down from above i just bot foward and then brake and boost backwards so that it hits me at an angle. It works better with abrams but any tank can do it.

guided missile normally disables any tank, and ignores RA by i think at least 50%

I don't think reactive armor works like that
if it hits the armor, it does no damage
if it doesn't, it does full damage

[Mr.jacksaunt]

The guided missile probably does damage through reactive armor, just as a balancing thing.

[hgpucom]

Nope. it's either a hit or miss with guided missile on RA. If it hits a side with RA it just blows it off. On rare chance, it will do minimum damage such as there are times that i notice when ive been hit in the rear with a jav or guided missle that after blowing my RA off, it does like 4% damage or so but that's it.

i've always damaged tanks even if they have RA

[hgpucom]

Because you're hitting them on the top of the tank

[Night Fox]

and I'm pretty sure you still get the hit marker even if it hits the armor

[Ceist]

Because you're hitting them on the top of the tank

not at all.

[Night Fox]

not at all.

how do you know you're damaging them? and are you sure that the armor hasn't already been blown off on the side you're shooting at?

Man I finally had a few good games on BF3.

I love my SV98
