@Vietnamese farmer who's actually Vietnamese mate he explicitly puts anti tank into it thusly denoting its specified usage as anti armor. When in reality its anti-everything
TD is pretty crap against buildings, pretty sure I have seen a video showcasing mass team battle with Rhino VS TankDestroyed, and the TD loses with equal numbers.
Yuri Prime: we'll see about that *uses mind control and makes the infantryman change his profession to tank driver* Tank Destroyer: there's no armor I can't penetrate!
@Shadow Hedgehog am i the only person who has experienced the worst RA2 nightmare ever ? When you dont know the game to well and you make many tank destroyers but when you attack , your enemy spams conscripts at you and you give up on life as your units crumble and dont do anything to the enemy.
@Shadow Hedgehog lol that's an interesting suicide method, I've had many funny fails, chrono legionnaire in a Yuri base getting mind controlled before getting rid of the Construction yard, having my base so full of infantry that when a genetic mutator activated I basically lost the game (Spoiler: they thrashed my whole base and I was left with only my airport and barracks until some other player came by and swarmed my base), oh and I can never forget that I lost against a map.... You read right, I lost against a map, it was a map with a neutral fortress in the middle of the map and after I beat the other players I tried to attack the middle and I failed again and again despite having almost unlimited gold and over a thousand units. Oh I forgot the funniest part, my laptop battery died and by that time I have only destroyed a corner of the fortress after 10 attempts.
Tank destroyers is one of the best concepts but worst executed unit in the game. - It can't shoot while moving so against a player with actual skill, you'll land pretty much half as many shots in mobilized combat. - Obsolete toward anything else other than vehicles, it takes 12 shells to kill infantry and it's like throwing a pebble against structures. - Even the "tank killing" identity is piss poor as it's only slightly better than the other universal tanks that can do great against everything. It's taken down to 20% against a 1v1 vs Rhino, THE STARTING TANK of an entire faction. Doesn't sound too hot when it's specialized to deal with tanks while forfeiting speed, defense and versatility. Westwood was scared of making a true tank killer because of possible balance issues as the game is indeed heavily intense in mechanized combat... but instead of finding a middle grond (make it more expensive (1200) in exchange for granting it to do 2X the damage it deals to vehicles. Opponents then will counter it by using infantry if Germany mass produce it (as those tanks are useless against structures, they will exert 0 pressure and get annihilated by a couple of GIs. It won't be broken as they are still super slow and can get outmaneuvered by faster units. Just a random morning ran lol not like any of it matters now Do hope there are mods out there that actually give Tank Killers a place in the game tho, I love the concept and art design of it (also just a Germany fan in general)
I wish they made Tesla Tanks even better. It's not as bad as the Tank Destroyer, but it's worse than a Prism Tank. I wish they gave it the same Attack Range as a Prism Tank.
How about just extending the range of the tank destroyer while decreasing its armor? That alone could provide some interesting play - counter play where the tank destroyer serves as a pseudo artillery against other tanks as well as a possible flanker, but at the same time it leaves them open for being flanked by things like Terror drones?
@@danb4900 Another idea to fix them would be to just give them turrets and let them have normal damage against infantry. Would that make them worth using? Assuming the opponent doesn't put too much stock in tanks that is.
Nothing weird about that. If harvester damage wouldn't have been scaled down, Germany would end up being broken with only Yuri being able to counter it.
People quick to comment how a Tank Destroyer can't kill a conscript (a human can stay low and dodge non explosive projectiles with some chance, talk about how is it possible after firing 10 times NOT to deal more than 10% damage on a frigging stationary huge ass power plant.
There's a big reason why people still prefer to use MBTs than Tank Destroyers is that MBTs have a traversing turret. And can outmanuever TDs. But, yeah in a controlled environment in terms of damage, it's the TDs for the most part. And yes, hands down Rhino Tank is the best MBT. In equal numbers, sure the Apoc wins, but realistically, if the Apocs outnumber your Rhinos, that's your fault. Though one can argue, what about Mirage Tanks, then that's just fighting the wrong battle because you're going against instant-hit anti-armor. The Soviets have very crappy late game in general, their viable artillery options are just either Siege Choppers or Dreads, their fairly competent but it in pales in comparison to the likes of instant-hits lije Magnetrons or Prisms.
Well its true, sure cool game and all but... balance??... nope, and it can get hard to just laugh, hahah its a cool game who cares, when some units are just useless as hell. Good damge, decent cost, useless.. i guess it counter apoc tanks well on elite level since you can get 2 for 1 of them, you just need to get those 2 to elite rank. Also you can't really do much with them, unless your enemy decides to build tanks they are useless.. at least an MBT would be good in general. And that thing is only "decent" at the only thing it can do. Of course nothing beats the kirov in being useless, as seen in the video about anti-air untis killing kirovs.
Balance isn't exactly this game's forte. But that's just the thing, the imbalance makes this game fun believe it or not, eventhough there are situations where you cannot recover easily from; a lost MCV without a means to replace it, playing against a Yuri who knows the meta (there's a big reason why Yuri is banned in competitive play), etc. I think a lot of fun from it is just coming up with ridiculous strategies that may or may not work-- since there is the mighty Soviet Tank Rush meta and it's counter of just being faster than the Sov player or stalling until Mirage Tanks. There's great sense of accomplish conquering odds in this game is what I'm saying.
But telsa tank kinda main main, also grizzzly tank is kinda light and maybe it for defense, lasher tank shell kinda like grizzly shell. Flak track, IFV, gattling tank have same abilities is anti-aircraft
Are you sure? I think If I put 5 Chronosphere soldiers in the Battle Fortress and Bring Tank Destroyers im sure the Rhino Tanks and Apoc tanks are annhilated
The only "tank" in RA2 - Apocalypse. It kills tanks, infantry and air units the same, it regens, has a ton of HP and boy, the way an elite apocalypse fires...
Well it does its job well being a "Tank Destroyer" we're asking a little too much from it to be able to destroy a battle fortress tank or an apocalypse tank... They're both super tanks with unrealistic concepts, meanwhile the tank destroyer actually existed somewhat.
While definitely lacking... The strategy is to use these guys in a fixed position, preferably defensive. The yuri mission in Africa even suggests that, since you start the mission early on with lasher tanks rushing you. There's even storys of Germans in Normandy using tanks on roads, between hedges and really slowing the allies down.
Great to see those comparison. Thanks I didn't found the comparison of: Tank Destroyer 1st Rank VS War Miner and Slave Miner 1st rank. (As well as 3rd Rank)
In actual encounters the TD sucks. Most players just spam Grizzly and Rhino tanks, skirt around and flank you since they can shoot while moving. The TD has no turret and needs to turn and stop momentarily to shoot. It's useless against players, useful against the dumb AI. Fun fact: the TD is based on the real life Swedish S-Tank (Stridsvagn 103).
Never actually thought of how well armoured those ore miners were. Even the allied chrono miner impressed me and it's armours generally not as good as the soviet war miner! It was especially interesting to see the tank destroyer fare worse against their armour than the other tanks; on that note the other tanks seemed to have an easier time breaking through the ore miner armour for some reason.....
I suspect that the armor is actually so thin that the AP rounds of the tank destroyer just zoom right through, while the normal tanks fire HE rounds against them. ...Or, it could just be game balance.
Yeah that's an interesting way of looking at it; I do like that idea. During conflict certain shells will simply be better for other targets. Personally I would've initially thought well the ore miners are technically not tanks in the game and it generally received damage bonuses vs tanks rather than any other vehicle type but then there's the fact the tank destroyer did quite well against other *non-tank* vehicles such as the destroyer and IFV so it makes my theory debatable. :)
You can use Shift + Left Click to select multiple buildings, just so you know. That also enables you to set multiple waypoints from multiple production buildings at the same time. Edit: Also, you have to click each building individually, while holding Shift. The dragbox method won't work with buildings.
Neko_ValentinE_Butterfly Slave miner is one of the heaviest armored units(2000hp compared to 800 of apocalypse tank). Terror drones are infantries produced in the war factory.
I think when you go tank verses tank, you should take into account the cost. For example, the apocalypse tank costs almost double that of a tank destroyer, so you really should have two TD's against one Apocalypse for a fair comparison of what you can make for the cost. When you take into account the cost, the bank for the buck starts to go in favor of the TD. It has an armor piercing of 150 verses the grizzly's 65 and more armor. Just need some anti-infantry units a long with it for support.
Neil Roy making a fair comparison taking everything into account is impossible. Some units are cheaper and yet already stronger. I just keep it simple and I believe everyone can just get an idea.
I love the test setup but sadly it does not take into consideration the turning of the tank destroyer. I think with a turn-able turret the tank would be able to fulfill its function, It would be fine if it did the same damage as the grizzly tank to buildings and infantry
There's even a handful of TH-camrs focused on this game. If you still love this game, I recommend Bryan Vahey. He has a vast knowledge of the game and he also have good commentary skills.
Damn, Tank Destroyers are good against tanks, but really suck against Miner armor for some reason? One getting pwned by a Slave Miner is really stupid...
damn i love urvideos as much as spirit of the law for AoE II. I was missing that type of content to my another favourite RTS series. Big bow to You Mr tgSacred. :-)
Honestly, the TD does better than I figured it would. Everyone bashes them for being useless, but vs vehicles, they outdo pretty much anything other than top-tier anti-tank vehicles like the apocalypse or battle fortress. Sure, they are less versatile, but in massed tank battles, they are certainly an upgrade over any lower tier tank. The only other possible drawback would be cost/build time,but I don't know what the difference there would be
Yeah everybody pretty much knows the tank destroyer is useless when attacking an enemy base.However i think it is kinda funny they did not give the tanks machine guns to deal with hostile infantry.Like they do in real life. :P
@Wlof24 Yes indeed.Also They should have made the Abrams tank as a secondary allied tank unit.It would have been a good balance when the soviets started rolling out the apocalypse tanks.
Damn! I was surprised the Tank Destroyer did that bad against an Apocalypse! And it still shocks me how bad Destroyers (naval) are against tanks, even a Grizzly wins
Now I conclude that why Tank Destroyers is existed in Allied. Because most Soviet Tanks and other Vehicles are heavily armored. So Tank Destroyers is a great choice to counter against.
I don't actually think it's that war miners have thicker armor rather the category of armor is actually comparable to structural armor. This test actually confirms it. If a tank destroyer attacks structures they do little damage but not quite negligible. But if a rhino tank shot at structures, it would do much more in comparison.
8:43 reminds me of a lego red alert series where some allied soldiers are standing around counting how many TD shells one can take. Eventually the guy even catches one.

"Not a tank I can't break" is an accurate voice line considering it's utterly useless against anything that isnt a tank
A question mark in the middle of the sentence will complete the illusion
since most players and the ai tend to go tank and veachle heavy and not combind arms etc the tank destroyer is more of a counter the pvp matter.

@Invadersir I already have. :D
Steven Green Wünderbar.
hence proved Apocalypse is the father of all tanks.
Shut up prism tanks is the best in this game
This could have been the Rhino Tank spam counter but they couldn't even get that right.
Next video 100 elite tank VS 200 elite sniper it takes forever to fight
haha
just use the genetic mutator to turn the snipers into brute, game over
@@eksine then it won't be the fight between sniper and tank so we can just use nuclear missile on those brute and game over......
@@itsme8049 we can use nuclear missile on your base too, and game over
hahaha hey eksine and To Me can i add you both on fb so we can play this game someday
what were they thinking when coming up with the firing sound of the Rhino tank? it sounds like it's got hiccups.
3:00 Tank destroyer: "Not a tank I can't break"
Enter Terror Drone.
[...]
YEAH RIGHT.
Jejking Terror drone is infantry. It can fit inside Flak Trucks
My god, i only now realised - it's JgPz E100...
Damn! I was surprised the Tank Destroyer did that bad against an Apocalypse!
And it still shocks me how bad Destroyers (naval) are against tanks, even a Grizzly wins
Now I conclude that why Tank Destroyers is existed in Allied. Because most Soviet Tanks and other Vehicles are heavily armored. So Tank Destroyers is a great choice to counter against.
Missing Tank Destroyer vs Navy Seal
Or vs slave
I don't actually think it's that war miners have thicker armor rather the category of armor is actually comparable to structural armor. This test actually confirms it. If a tank destroyer attacks structures they do little damage but not quite negligible. But if a rhino tank shot at structures, it would do much more in comparison.
At 7:24 you can click on the building then hold shift and click on the other 2 separately it will select the 3 buildings
Conscript: ma gonna end this man's career.
8:43 reminds me of a lego red alert series where some allied soldiers are standing around counting how many TD shells one can take. Eventually the guy even catches one.
Oh, the C&C Legos series by CNCNZ...
Yeah, those were funny...
(boop)... 97... (boop)... 98...
"Nö armor's töö tough"
Less damage on metal plated Power Plant
😳
Suprisingly good against naval assets huh
It stood no chance against the instrument of doom
If the tank destroyer could shoot while moving it would be one of the most OP units in the game, if not the best.
German accent for this is dope!
Tank destroyer: "Not a tank i cant break!"
Apocalypse Tank: *Laughs in russian*
Didn't know the TD can kill ships that quick...
No armor's too tough-
Slave Miner: LOL
Now I know where is all world free time lives.

Tank Destroyer : They Need to Get through me First
Ore Miner : Haha Me and my Machine Gun Go bRRRRRRRRR
Apocalypse tank：Who are you?
Tank destroyer：I‘m tank destroyer.
Apocalypse tank：what destroyer？
Tank destroyer: Tank destroyer.
Apocalypse tank：I can't hear you.What destroyer？
Tank destroyer: T。。。T。。。。some one is calling me，see you later

That conscript in the end...
Tank Destroyer VS Slave

Prism tanks is the best in this game
Fact:
The Dmg of tank destroyer at vehicles are the same as The Missile of a Harrier
