In my opinion they're all as good as each other, designed each for different purposes to fulfill different roles. The Trench Raider is excellent in CQC, specifically trenches, the Flametrooper is also good at CQC, but less effective against individuals, rather larger groups, the SMG Sentry is extremely effective taking out individual enemies in CQC, but worse at larger groups, the Infiltrator is good at supporting friendlies and just generally being a nuisance, and the Machine Sentry is best at taking g out large groups of enemies on the move, making it perfect for clearing and capturing flags
Oh hell no. However we should have been allowed to use it as a melee weapon. Out of bullets? No worries, beat the shit out of your enemy with this massive gun.
Zach Guinta Pull bolt out for a quick melee weapon while using the gun would be a heavy one. Fuck sake just using the bullets themselves they could be thrown to hurt people.
The few times I've used this monster I've loved it. Kinda hard to get though because it barely spawns, and when they do anyone near it sprints directly for it lol.
Honestly i think that it's the best elite class. Today i got a 30-0 killstreak with it in St. Quentin Scar, mostly the village part of the map. I just shot people left and right
KriticalKris Anytime I really enjoy the vids like having good fun on my vacation they make it that much sweeter Any plans on weapon guides on any other games and franchises?
Probably be doing another series on the Battlefield V weapons. No plans on any gun guides for other games at the moment, but I might decide to do them on something else too (if I get the chance) at a later date
The Tankgewehr is inferior to the American 50cal in pretty much every way (and by extension the Russian version, I think, since the measurements are nearly identical), so by the time of WW2 having a Barrett would make much more sense. However, later in WW2 tanks were far too armored for an AT rifle to work, at least frontally, which is why they largely stopped using them for that purpose. Besides, the Tankgewehr needed an angle (I think 45 degrees) to actually penetrate a Mark 5 frontally, according to The Forgotten Weapons.
Awesome Lord I know what I'll take, if it gotta be a war weapon then a Solothurn s18-1000 or an mg42, if not then a 2s7 pion to reach out 50 km and fire a nuclear artillery shell at the opposition
Did you know this gun had such powerful recoil it could break the users arm if not shoulderd right and you could not fire more than 3 shots before you would be to sore to fire this thing for the rest of the day because there's no padding on the stock of the rifle
gabe the dog Dickerson Not true. The 13mm round is about the same as a .50bmg in terms of recoil. The rifle is also heavy and has 1" spikes on the bottom of the bipod legs to help keep it into the ground.
@@danielespinolajr1 It's nothing but a rediculous claim to say that it will break your shoulder after a few shots. It's just another myth, based on ignorance. You guys have been watching too much simple history lol. If you do firmly believe that it is so dangerous to shoot, then _prove_ it. I'm genuinely curious to see your argument.
Love this elite class and this Tankgewehr 1918 is also on the Lamdship in its tank Hunter version with the driver having the ability to fire it. To me this weapon is actually devastating to the Artillery Truck and the Russian Putilov Garford but the assault tank can tank the shots from this rifle.
This is probably my favorite specialist kit in the game it's super satisfying to pick off guys with this thing and having a sawed-off shotgun as your secondary is not bad either
It wasnt ment to destroy armoured targets, it was supposed to wound and kill crew and damage things inside. And it want just a larger m98... it had 4 locking lugs instead of 3, it had an m88ejector largened, didnt have a split receiver and had gasport holes.
Technically it could destroy armoured targets by hitting fuel tanks and other important mechanical features (housed within), rendering the vehicle useless in a combat zone
KriticalKris but destrction involves absolute annihilation, or just basically blowing the target up. Im not trying to say that it was impossible for this rifle to blow up a tank, but basically every time a bullet entered a tank it did nothing or little besides wounding and damaging through spalling or direct hits. Almost never did it ignite fuel, as there was no incendiary filler in the ap bullets, and the chances of igniting the fuel just by some sparks are slim. The gasoline would just snuff them out after a hit. Im not sure how ammunition reacts to a hit, so im not sure wether that would lead to a fatal reaction.
I know it's now much of an exciting weapon, but I would really enjoy seeing a wex flamethrower review before you cease to create Battlefield 1 videos. I just think it's really fun to use and get massive kill streaks with and would personally adore watching a video on it.
I'm just focusing on the bullet based guns, so unfortunately I've ruled the Wex out, I wouldn't be able to get reliable stats and there'd be nothing to compare them too if I could.
I was actually playing bf1 when I saw the notification for this video, even though I was almost at the top of the leaderboard, I still backed out of the match just to watch. I wasnt disappointed
I would be inclined to debate how effective it was IRL, as often it would take a 90 degree shot to even penetrate a tank, and anything else would pretty much bounce.
And now, we’ve come full circle. The best sidearm, the most powerful shotgun, best SMGs, SLRs, and then the troll gun. What could we be missing? THIS, THAT’S WHAT!?
I agree with Water Racoon, that would be extremely broken, imagine a whole squad, 1 with the Sentry, one with the Villar Perosa, one with the Grenade Launcher Martini Henry, then someone else with the Tankgewehr, maybe if they give them a massive nerf, but that’s it
I took down a landship at full health and in close quarters with this beast and a couple anti-tank grenades. It was very satisfying to that tank go up in flames!
B R U T A L Before the K-bullets and this Tankgewehr, they had to reinsert the point of the 7.92x57 Mauser bullet in reverse, and was used as an improvised anti-materiel bullet until the K-bullet was made.
One thing I hate about this game is snipers need 2 shots to kill unless it’s to the head. I would understand you’d need another bullet if you hit there legs or arms but come on. So this gun is amazing and I love that it’s a one shot one kill gun.
Seeing the Tankgewehr makes me really sad because of the way the elite system works in BF1. I wish it worked more like Star Wars Battlefront where you could buy the Tank Hunter Kit with enough score rather than having to find it
Sorry man, I'm not doing the sawed off shotgun (basically because it's the same gun as the model 1900) but I do talk about it in the model 1900 guide with comparisons if you wanna know more about it 👌
Everything about this gun is so satisfying, even the reload feels so good.
Joseph Karakowski I love how badass the bolt-cocking looks
Joseph Karakowski how can i get it?
Nipa a I think he goes over that somewhere in the vid. At least he does in his other weapon guides
@@nikkenumba1947 I believe you can only use it when you manage to get the tank hunter kit spawned on the map
Best part is putting artillery trucks in the dirt
seems ideal for home defence
if ill have a home remaining after i shot this
Darth Revan lol!!!
House hunters gone wrong
You’ll have a home but you might not have a shoulder
Doesn't make sense it cannot kill a horse in one shot..... :/
Those heavy-duty bulletproof horses
But so much as touch it with a saber and it dies immediately
Because shrek loves donkey
No, those horses are vehicles
FasoOoLi Shami Horses are the new Behemoth
A rifle so powerful it could break the shoulder of the user if held incorrectly
T-Pose legend FD48 not dislocated!?
AC130 chan ah shit you know what I mean
AC130 chan it could also break it. The huge amount of energy in the round is transferred into the recoil, so you're lucky if it's only dislocated.
Damn son
T-Pose legend FD48 seeing as there are more powerful rounds today that can be shoulder fired, no lol
My shoulder hurts even just by looking at it
Vladimir Putin The only way you hurt your shoulder is from patting yourself on the back for all the human beings that you may disappear.
My great grandfather said that the germans would but rags and towels at the butt to stop the recoil
I love using this thing for the sound alone, just vicious.
"Deleting squishy infantry targets" I don't know why, but this had me dying 😂 Love the content Kris, keep it up dude!
Best Elite Class?
🤔
ReconPro
Yup
ReconPro
I find you everywhere
A Supreme Edgelord who does minecraft tootorials The trench raider is definitely good, the flame trooper however is trash
In my opinion they're all as good as each other, designed each for different purposes to fulfill different roles.

ReconPro 13.2mm can wall break tank???(Tank gewehr)
Rifle caliber: Bloody Huge. Perfect description! XD
I’ll be honest, I mostly use it to annihilate foolish snipers who think they can challenge a god
you use it right, it should be an anti sniper rifle instead of an anti tank rifle hehe
Lol they need a scope, what peasants
Same
Should do 5dmg to the soldier shooting it each time you fire lmao
Oh hell no. However we should have been allowed to use it as a melee weapon. Out of bullets? No worries, beat the shit out of your enemy with this massive gun.
ManUtdBoy13 pull the bolt out and just club people
Zach Guinta Pull bolt out for a quick melee weapon while using the gun would be a heavy one. Fuck sake just using the bullets themselves they could be thrown to hurt people.
Maybe 2 damage? Or 1.
notforsale today 41 pounds
A rifle so big it cannot even put a dent on a moving horse.
Kris, your videos are absolutely legendary. Already looking forward to your BF V weapon vids!
Damage: Brutal
damage: insta death
Damage: one shot ki8iiiiiiilllllllll!¡??!!!!!!!??????!!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best rifle in the game

I don't even play BF1 but your videos are so good to enjoy..
Weapon Guides are so well planned out and the editing is amazing
Love your videos buddy
Cheers man
KriticalKris Anytime
I really enjoy the vids like having good fun on my vacation they make it that much sweeter
Any plans on weapon guides on any other games and franchises?
Probably be doing another series on the Battlefield V weapons. No plans on any gun guides for other games at the moment, but I might decide to do them on something else too (if I get the chance) at a later date
KriticalKris Alright
Looking forward to your next video
Keep it up man best wishes and much love
this was my favorite weapon from BF1, I only wish we could equip it as a primary. I hope DICE add it to BFV, unlikely, but it would be nice
They definitely wont, closest you're getting is the 2 AT rifles which are slightly worse versions
The Tankgewehr is inferior to the American 50cal in pretty much every way (and by extension the Russian version, I think, since the measurements are nearly identical), so by the time of WW2 having a Barrett would make much more sense.
However, later in WW2 tanks were far too armored for an AT rifle to work, at least frontally, which is why they largely stopped using them for that purpose.

Can’t wait for your BFV weapon guide !
I got a triple kill with this last night.
No, not a vehicle kill, three infantry lined up perfectly, thinking they were in good cover.
aww yarh just the video i've been waiting for
WHEN THE WORLD BREAKS DOWN AND THE APOCALYPSE IS COMING, GET OUT YOUR TANKGEWEHR 1918 OUT FOR MAXIMUM PROTECTION ;)))
Awesome Lord and broken shoulders
and when I mean protection I mean *PROTECTION*
Well I know what I want for Christmas jk
Ali-A?
Awesome Lord I know what I'll take, if it gotta be a war weapon then a Solothurn s18-1000 or an mg42, if not then a 2s7 pion to reach out 50 km and fire a nuclear artillery shell at the opposition
Does it even have a bullet drop off?
C Y K A O N M Y B L Y A T yes but it only comes into play at like 300 meters or something
Are you going to do the Martini Henry grenade launcher
Nope, sorry dude, just doing the bullet based weapons
KriticalKris awww so no wex
I just rather have a martini. Shaken not stirred.
Weapon Damage: BRUTAL I love it!
Did you know this gun had such powerful recoil it could break the users arm if not shoulderd right and you could not fire more than 3 shots before you would be to sore to fire this thing for the rest of the day because there's no padding on the stock of the rifle
gabe the dog Dickerson the German and Austro-Hungarian soldiers in the trenches got around that by adding their own DIY padding using jackets.
gabe the dog Dickerson Not true. The 13mm round is about the same as a .50bmg in terms of recoil. The rifle is also heavy and has 1" spikes on the bottom of the bipod legs to help keep it into the ground.
Callum Turner Ummm Yes True

If you do firmly believe that it is so dangerous to shoot, then _prove_ it. I'm genuinely curious to see your argument.
And then you realize the inventors of this weapon wanted to make an automatic version of it.
HANS, GET ZE MASCHINENTANKGEWEHR!
I laugh hard when the damage says its BRUTAL, nice video dude keep it up :)
Love this elite class and this Tankgewehr 1918 is also on the Lamdship in its tank Hunter version with the driver having the ability to fire it. To me this weapon is actually devastating to the Artillery Truck and the Russian Putilov Garford but the assault tank can tank the shots from this rifle.
In my opinion this is the most important of the elite classes, with the team helping along it's a game changer
I wish you had this gun for the assault class but only had 3 or 4 bullets for it
Brutal and close call, two jokes in one video? This might be my favourite one yet.
Edit: then again the entire kolibri video was a big joke
I was honestly wondering if you’d do this one. I’m glad you did
This is probably my favorite specialist kit in the game it's super satisfying to pick off guys with this thing and having a sawed-off shotgun as your secondary is not bad either

A 13mm round, could break the users shoulder if not used correctly, but it can’t kill a god damn horse with one shot.

KriticalKris perfectly understandable, thank you
The world: *2020
The world if the Tank hunter rifle had a magazine and was self loading: *3030
never clicked off a porn so fast.
Orokins ur my hero
GET THIS MAN A COMEDY SHOW FOR HIS FUNNY AND ORIGINAL CONTENT!!!11
I was actually playing bf1 when I saw the notification for this video, even though I was almost at the top of the leaderboard, I still backed out of the match just to watch. I wasnt disappointed
Amazing
I would be inclined to debate how effective it was IRL, as often it would take a 90 degree shot to even penetrate a tank, and anything else would pretty much bounce.
It was really meant to knock rivets loose
Ladies and gentlemen, the world's first dedicated antitank gun.
Is it just me or is it everytime I need health there is no health kits or pouches only ammo. But when I need ammo there's only health kits.
And now, we’ve come full circle. The best sidearm, the most powerful shotgun, best SMGs, SLRs, and then the troll gun. What could we be missing? THIS, THAT’S WHAT!?
Amazing video! You put a lot of effort into this and honestly the best in game review I have seen on UA-cam!!
Dude, spare me the history lesson, I got Gun Jesus for that.
Skip forward if you're not interested, nearly everyone else likes the background knowledge
Almost as powerfull as kolibri ;)
the tankgewehr is a mere pea shooter compared to the beastly kolibri #kolibriOP
_almost_
I used it more as a sniper than anything when I played bf1
It's too bad he didn't cover the Wex flamethrower but overall, I'm enjoying these bf1 weapon guides
Very well put together video! The history lesson about this gun was very interesting too! Thank you for this sweet video bro. Keep it up
" There is no 'overkill.' There is only 'open fire' and 'I need to reload.' " 4:42
I could bayonet charge with it in the campaign. Is it a glitch
Can't wait to see these guides on the bf5 weapons!
Dang never knew there were laser cannons in ww1
What stats are there to say, it’s what everyone uses to insta-kill you from anywhere or shooting down planes instead of destroying tanks...
Dice should put extremely difficult challenges to unlock the elite class weapons
William Diaz idk about you but i dont want to get obliterated by a villar perosa every 10 seconds
I agree with Water Racoon, that would be extremely broken, imagine a whole squad, 1 with the Sentry, one with the Villar Perosa, one with the Grenade Launcher Martini Henry, then someone else with the Tankgewehr, maybe if they give them a massive nerf, but that’s it
The tankgewher is like the barrett.50cal of ww1 but does only one shot at a time, but I don't really care,I think it's badass for sure 👍
Imagine using this weapon for hunting bears or target practice
I took down a landship at full health and in close quarters with this beast and a couple anti-tank grenades. It was very satisfying to that tank go up in flames!
I’ve seen one at a museum in Alabama on a vacation too see my uncle it’s huge.
Damage - BRUTAL
Me driving a St. Chamond: *OH SHIT THAT’S A ANTI TANK RIFLE TAKE IT OUT NOW BOYS!*
Did yell know in real life they only fired twice before letting the second person shoot because it would break the shooters shoulder
Am I weird that I actually hunt tanks with the tankgewher? I normally hunt tanks standing still and repairing.
So powerful it'll destroy your target, and your shoulder. In that order.
B R U T A L
Before the K-bullets and this Tankgewehr, they had to reinsert the point of the 7.92x57 Mauser bullet in reverse, and was used as an improvised anti-materiel bullet until the K-bullet was made.
Martini on steroids
you really have to feel bad for the people who have to lugg that big thing along the battlefield.
i think that being isolated from the hot zone to fire tanks securely compensates you carring 20kgs guns
Imagine this thing with a high powered scope and a magazine
So a modern day anti material rifle ? A 13 mm is meh search up the anzio 20 mm anti material rifle
@@aliabbani2974 13 mm is still no laughing matter
I’d say if you want to know more about this thing’s history, the guys at Forgotten Weapons have a good video.
First time took the Tankgewehr, got immidiatly bayoneted in the back.
The only thing difficult about this gun is trying to get the kit before anyone else 😅
I understand why this isn't a sniper weapon...
One thing I hate about this game is snipers need 2 shots to kill unless it’s to the head. I would understand you’d need another bullet if you hit there legs or arms but come on. So this gun is amazing and I love that it’s a one shot one kill gun.
A good tip to kill elite classes easier is to use K bullets. It destroys them
Awesome! Hopefully you do the Wex Flamethrower as well!
my most favourite elite kit alongside with trench raider kit.
I love ur videos!!!
How many are left to do?
Seeing the Tankgewehr makes me really sad because of the way the elite system works in BF1. I wish it worked more like Star Wars Battlefront where you could buy the Tank Hunter Kit with enough score rather than having to find it
Hey kris, love your vids man could you maybe make 1 on the handgranade?
5:07-5:10
Eh,close enough. VERY CLOSE!
I need 90000000000000000 of those to buy ok
Yes! The hit scan beast lol. BF1 is still the best FPS ever made imo
that sound... uhh... i hope they bring this weapon in BFV and make it the best Anti-Material rifle
imagine this rifle has scope on it
no man, tank or even plane will be safe
1 shot 1 kill 👌 love it
those grenades lmao 3:11
Thanks for the history part
Blowing up camping artillery truck and motar tanks: Big mood
I like trench raiders
Cod be like: Tankgewehr with 120x scope, extended magazine, foregrip, no stock, Silencer, and full auto mode
The youtube channel forgotten weapons did a video on this and its penetration is nowhere near 22mm.
Perhaps the best elite weapon(at least my favourite)
Hey Kris I’m wondering, are you thinking of making a new/updated gun guide for the General Liu?
Probably not dude, though it basically just uses the same damage stats as the Gewehr 98 with the same sweetspot zone
God I wish this wasn't an elite class exclusive weapon
Sawed off review next ? Please
Sorry man, I'm not doing the sawed off shotgun (basically because it's the same gun as the model 1900) but I do talk about it in the model 1900 guide with comparisons if you wanna know more about it 👌
KriticalKris ok 👍🏼
Actually it can penetrate 26* millimeter of armor not 22 (in irl)
Imagine the Tankgewehr as a machine gun.
6:03 antitank gun btw
