Can folks fire HEAT and HEAT-FS through trees now?

That's my question.  I got shot from the other end of the map with heat yesterday, and did not think that was possible.

Some rounds are more resilient then others but in short you always could as long as you don't hit the trees hit box.

This was the jungle map.  There was no clear vis for him to see me at all.  Not only did he 1-shot my previously undamaged vehicle, he did it with heat he fired through the jungle from nearly the other end of the map.

Perfectly fine if he doesn't hit a hitbox

I am not sure if HEAT had some change...but it was NEVER incapable of crossing bushes...i got a few kills trough bushes (and trees). Sometimes i would get a detonation on the tree, i would adjust a bit to the side and the shot went trough...

As said above...it depends on what it has to cross to get to the target...and also think it depends on the specific shell (caliber?) you use...

Never had much luck with HEAT in any nations line if it wasn't direct line of sight, but I suspect the game dynamic's in AB are bit different.

not all heat and heatfs are equal.  in my exoerience for example Heat is far more prone to being triggered early (more sensitive) and french heatfs seems to be super sensitive also while german seems better at firing trough cover.

My experience is more MAP dependant...some bushes are less "thick" i guess...not sure which...
