Dude. The constant uptiers even after moving up or down tiers is so real and so frustrating. I consistently get 1-3 place on my team when we lose, and barely have time to crack 10th place when we win. Idk, but "You've been Shmeckledorphed"made me lol so that's nice....
Your never playing at your Listed tier. Always expect a Full Uptier and plan from there, A Small uptier and no uptiers are to be listed as Downtiers. Play the game like that and don't expect a Non Uptier EVER
Had the same problem, but it turned out I needed glasses, that coupled with playing with good lighting around solved it for me for the most part. Probably not something that works for everyone however.
Man, the T-44-100 is the villain of simulator while playing as Germany, they're extremely sneaky and often bush up their turret which is incredibly annoying when they're hull down. Also, heres another attempt of recommending the Conqueror.

you cant be more wrong lol. you're either practically useless if map doesnt fit it or stupidly overpowered if you can get behind a conveniently shaped hill and get LOS over the whole map. Both cases it feels like you're losing braincells

Always love these videos. Commentary is funny to listen to, the balance of action (killing players) and planning (flanking etc) is perfect; keeps you entertained without drowning you in action. Same goes for the edits; enough that it’s funny, but scarce enough that it doesn’t become a borderline slideshow of popular templates over content. ML Spooks
@@gammafox5431 it's really not. I have like 200 games with it and about 2.5 kd, it's certainly the best of the chieftains. You should play it like a heavy tank, take it in downtiers and avoid taking it in uptiers. In downtiers many tanks can't pen your ufp and turret, while you easily pen most things. Your lfp is pretty weak tho, so better to play hull down. Also at 8.3 it's mobility isn't that bad, gets the job done.
I feel the constant uptier struggle. No matter what br I play I get mostly .6/7-1.0 uptiers. It only started about 3 months ago but it's had been fairly consistent. Probably closer to 75% if games at uptiers. But it has made playing at tier feel like a dream so that's a plus I guess.
I feel the pain. It’s like 5-6 full uptiers then 2 partial downtier that somehow you immediately die in. Then boom straight back to full uptiers for another 10 games.
The Class-3(P) is a currently very interesting vehicle to play. its absurdly tanky sometimes and with the mobilitybuff on snow and sand you get in into ludicrous situations sometimes. Would be a great video to watch
You’re videos have taught me to the way to not be a typical German main. And for that I thank you and I am shocked I was one of those players at one point…
You should play the 2.3 Russian T-80, it has the mobility of a German super heavy, a turret that takes a full hour to rotate 90°, the armor of a truck and a gun that is almost as good as a .50 cal. The pinnacle of Russian engineering!
You should play the italian M47 (105/55), i love that thing. It has the same round as the first centauro, but at 7.3, paired with a good mobility and reload, it's just a joy to play it

Could you check out the t10a? Watched a guy absolutely annihilate the enemy team and then sit in their spawn and bounce shots till he was bombed. Idk if he was lucky or if it is great in a downtier.
T 44 and T 54 platforms have been my favorite in the Russian tree. Asking again for a video on the Super Pershing when time allows. My favorite tank irl and I had a lot of fun using it in USA lineups

Looks about right. Got the T-44-100 a while back, but was waiting until I got the IS-3 to start playing it. This thing is absolutely devastating, I cannot understand why gaijin even considered dropping it down to 6.7
ive adopted many small tanks in mid tier games and i gotta say, they not only work against planes but they also work against tanks! ive been bombed multiple times and they always miss me, tanks always for some reason shoot my pet first before they shoot me, they also double as add on armour

I feel like the crew replenishment should swap out your whole crew rather than 1 guy, especially because you can only use it once and on a cap
char 2c bis: I see this as an absolute win
Either that or atleast 2 crewmates.
Just allow a crewman of your choice to be swapped out each time you get on a cap would be fine (with a time out for each use)

Guys now I am %100 sure gaijin giving content creators good matchmaking to make warthunder look like a fun to play game

You should play the Type 75 SPH from Japan, constant over pressure with the proximity rounds and its a great spaa to boot.

That gun hits harder than the british government's recent economic decisions
so slow though

and also with decent armor
I remember top scoring with it in my first game using it. Its fun
There’s also this one other guys who keeps, ( and will keep), suggesting you play the British Striker
Could you do a video in class 3p? It’s practically forgotten about
Every time i see his videos the only thing i can think is how CNC Generals music is playing

It had that round since forever and it’s pointless since the BR-471B has much better slope performance.
