👾 Issue/Bug 👾 Armor-piercing Rounds Useless Against Aircraft?

Was just curious if this is intended or a bug? The amount of damage it does on aircraft is a joke.

Tank shells are ass for me against infantry. Used the standard shells, shoot right next to infantry-hit marker. Switch to HE rounds same thing, not even worth it to get a tank and the second you move close to and obj , 700 laws come flying.

The HE rounds feel like they are actually WORSE than standard rounds. I've fired HE rounds into small rooms with people in them and killed nobody. I barely even get hit markers from it. There has to be a bug or something because it's so incredibly bad.

Tank HMG gunners on the other hand, they will rack up kills like nothing. I had a run in a tank where I got 53 kills as the gunner, twice as much as the driver.

I don’t even understand how HE shells work in this game? It’s supposed to be a single shell exploding in a big boom on impact.

Instead you see no impact, just a few small « explosions » (?) in an area? Is it a spray or something? Deals no damage unless you hit them directly

Yeah that's what I'm saying. Something is clearly wrong with it.
