He said that the Centurion 5/1 has worse rate of fire than the UDES 16, but I think he meant to say Centurion 7/1 because otherwise it's incorrect and it's also irrelevant since he was talking and comparing the UDES 16 to other tier 9 meds.
"234mm is bad pen" BC25t Ap, T-55, T-54, T54E1, E-50, Patton: "Am i a joke to you" ?" The Pen of the Udes is well in the middle of T9, its not that bad at all.
The standard pen is, but standard pen is mostly irrelevant since you should be firing gold at anything with armor. And 263mm the gold pen is terrible when the average for Tier IX tech tree mediums is 299mm (and 6 of the 14 tanks actually have 330/340mm). Further, the only Tier IX med with worse gold pen is the T54E1.
@@ARCNA442 ~260mm pen with gold or normal is totaly fine for a Tier 9 Med. Its only those Type4/5 which are basically immune at the front to your fire.

We also have a company called Bodafors, which im pretty sure that you´ve seen in-game, it´s a cannon manufacturer that made or makes (im not sure if they still do) cannons for tanks!
Hey QB! As you mentioned the "low pen" it reminded me the pen-armour race developed in a couple of years. This race gave birth of the Patriot and the infamous Defender. We don't need high pen. We need weakspots. One should not pen reliably the JagdTiger superstructure even with premium rounds in my opinion, it has a weak lower- and midplate. Besides Tortoise has 226 pen until you grind 81300 XP, after that experience there is no low pen. 😁
6:49 "Ohhh the GW panther caught me out but luckily were able to depress the gun over the ridge to be able to shut him down good stuff." wow that's a sound.
I always prefer the tier 9s because there's something fascinating about carrying tier X guns and pointing it at tier VIIs. And in some cases it's the same gun the tier X version of your tank carries.
The comment where QB says, "you can't pen heavy tanks from the front reliably". And I'm like, Well if I drive a heavy tank with good armor, that's exactly what I want. If all tanks can pen all other tanks from the front, where is the stratigic thinking in this game. If all you have to do is to press the 2 key, then it's just no use playing. All tanks should have different characteristics and if you have good armor you want to use it.
I agree with you. I think having a slow moving fortress rolling at you should really make you think twice about sitting there and just letting it roll up on you. Dabbing the 2 key to just punch a hole through like the face of the E-100 really sucks. I'm not saying that it shouldn't have weak points like the lower plate, but having a special ammo that totally bypasses the specific purpose of your tank is just poor game design. It just makes you not want to play the super heavies at all.
its pen isn't that bad its just not super high like some of the other meds like the Leo PTa or the Cent, and no one ever claims they are op. if the Udes 16 had super high pen and its gun depression, it would be pretty op
True and the gold rounds are better then the normal but not too good... Every gold round should be like this only +30 pen in place of from 250 to above 300.
still on first gun and only 3 battles. Haven't shot gold, but standard I haven't penned anyone except for clean 90 degree sides shots on a med. Stock turret, but I have been penned at every angle except for one ricochet off the gun. been hit twice for 1200+ by FV4005, but IT's not OP
This is probably one of the most balanced medium tanks, let alone new tanks introduced into WoT in a long time. I don’t really think that it should be able to just pen the fronts of equal or higher tier heavies or be able to play the long range support role. I think wargaming did a very good job balancing this tank and it will just need an effective commander to make it perform on the battlefield.
I am enjoying the Tier 8 but not winning a lot of matches. I certainly agree with your early evaluation. Soldier on mate! Always appreciate your vids QB. Best of luck.
Animalyze71 i literally face a maus and everything is red the only way is to yeet gold so either buff lower tiered vehicles or fix the damn matchmaking holy shit its been shit for who knows how long
@@fsdhuy Same with the Japanese Heavy...I was facing a Type-4 Heavy the other day and the tank's entire frontal armour was red. The lower hull was yellow but I could not penetrate it. I decided to just load gold and what do you know, I could suddenly pen the lower hull of a Japanese Heavy. I don't usually use gold ammo but in situations like the Japanese Heavy or a tank 2 tier above me, I have no choice BUT to use gold.
I must admit, this DocterZoef in Indien played really well. He cleared ltg and pantera, and then almost got QB with pants down with this smart move, bating QB to expect him from the right. Really good player.
This tank was designed to use 10.5 cm STRV 103 gun, so even if it is shortened I hoped it would preform similar to the 105 mm L7. Maybe on the lower side 250 something but down to 230 feels like a joke for something with mobility similar to Centurion tanks...
That tank almost looks cell shaded in this video, and with its sleek aesthetic and bright yellow and white makes it look like some kind of hyperion tank straight out of borderlands lol
I played with two guys who ground the tank and they kept complaining that all enemies would shoot HE at their turrets and overmatched it, that they would be set on fire the whole time and AND the gun would not fire where one aimed.
The end really proofs that many (older) german tanks are underpowered, he couldnt penetrate without using premium. One of those soviet Objects would have magically penetrated every shot.
Part of me is really glad that wargaming didnt make these vehicles the new Meta for the next 6 or so months. I feel they are balanced well for the first time in what feels like years.
witch equipment would you recommend: coated optics/ Gun Rammer / vertical stabilizer? That was what i find in other youtube videos. I ask because no one of these gets the "boost" (speedometer icon) or do you recommend now improved rotation mechanism or Improved Ventilation?
This tank is way to good tbh. But again, since using the vehicles are about as painful as using artillery it is good for the game. Just like artillery is good for the game.
The Udes 15/16 can easily block shots when covering ridge lines. I have blocked 4400 in one game and 5200 in another game. Both of which are on wot replays website. Damage was not impressive. but blocked damage was. In case people want to see in game name is alphaceti.
I completely disagree with QB. The pen on both standard and special ammunition should stay the same. Buffing it would make it OP and isn't he all about balanced gameplay? Clearly he hasn't fully recovered from being sick.
The UDES 15/16 is even more broken than the Super Conqueror when hull down, it's basically invulnerable to all but artillery at that point, and arty just got nerfed in the last patch so... Id expect a nerf for this line in about a month, along with a nerf for the Kranvagn, because its 'too good' (even though its actually fine atm).
It is the regular (English), I just had to re-listen to the start and they say: Let's roll out. Your welcome! :) Edit: Removed a random "were" that I do not know why I typed in.
Huh. So these swedish mediums take as much damage from arty as your average heavy tank then. Multiple times I'll get slapped for 400-500 by artillery a tier lower than me (often when I'm moving or think I'm safe), because balance I guess.
Xvm 1.5 update finally out so assume your mod pack is coming soon? Thanks QB - despite all the angst about xvm, your MP has greatly enriched the game for me over the years.
I've also been penned in the cupolas with this tank which is really silly considering the armor isn't that reliable. One game you'll bounce E3 rounds and then someone in a grille will hit the side of your gun, pass through it and penetrate the groove that the gun sits in which is hilarious. The gun is really unreliable I agree. Hoping the tier 10 is better
QuickyBaby can you tell me any good tier 5 or 6 tank that is good for farming credits, I am free to play player and I had VK 100.01P and Mauschen but I sold them( I can't remember why).
Is it worth playing any tank that has low pen and poor aim? Experience is strongly influenced by (personal) damage, and doing damage is mostly dependent upon penetrating. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful tank. Sure it can pen tier 8s, but if that's your goal just get a tier 8 with reasonable pen right?
