The eagle-eyed of you will notice, while Jingles was noting the E50's reluctance to charge into the fight with low hp, he was actually moving slower because he had supplemented his hull armor with a dead light tank.
technically, WG did monetize teamwork. Back when WoT first came out, platoons could only be formed by people with premium accounts. Eventually they allowed free players to form platoons, but only with one person, and some time after that, they ditched the premium requirement entirely, and now platoons can be formed with up to three people in them without paying a cent.
I miss the days of teamwork with arty. One of my favorite games began with me accidentally fail platooning with my daughter. Boy did our team give us flack about it as good as they did dying to the enemy. Alone, told my young daughter not to fire her gun, to play hide and go peek. She scouted out the remaining enemy tanks and we clobbered them. Now they took that dynamic and allow tanks to shoot gold into frontal hull armour down corridors instead of letting arty spank them for static game play.
I totally forgot about the 2 player limit on platoons without premium.. Fortunately I had many friends who had premium time & I would buy a week here or there myself.
having a good teammate always makes things more fun & better gaming experience. my son & I play WoWs together sometimes - we voicechat while playing - are able to communicate & coordinate our movements. we once won 21 straight asymmetric battles in a row working together - one of the most fun times I've played the game
That was outstanding. It was always fun to try to keep a low health ally alive, because 2 guns in the fight are better than 1. E5 was a good player as well, "game recognized game".
This feels like one of those older WWII movies in which the unsung heroes fight to the bitter end, and only because of their efforts the rest of the army in that area are able to advance and take back a city or something
This video sent me down a rabbit hole about the KV-4 and all of its various proposed configurations (which, if you've never seen them, are all very silly). My wife thought it was adorable. Eagle Sword's heroics just keep on giving
Hahahaha - Jingles talking about the remaining Tds reminded me of the spanish Inquisition or life of Brian:"They have 1 advantage - theire stealth .....and theire heavy guns. Actually they have 2 Advantages - theire stealth, theire guns and they only need to defend. So actually they have three advantages".
The KV4 is a fun tank to play, the biggest issue is that small turret on the turret yelling "Shoot me, shoot me". The good team play with the E5. Now it's time to hit the mines again and gather them salts!
In my own defense, it's a crime I bounced off the hull of that E5 with gold. Jingles, peer through the ether and find the replay I sent you on December 4th, 2012. It's your destiny. Also, I wasn't aiming for the KV-4, the shot went wide and hit him by accident.
I used to love roflstomping in my KV-4 back when I used to play WoT, oh so many years ago. In the hands of a good player it was nearly invincible as long as you wiggled your turret to keep shots off the little mini-turret on top of the main turret
@@CP-tm7be I won't say Jingles is phoning in the WOT videos, but he definitely doesn't take the same care with them that he did a few years ago. He really cares far more about World of Warships and it is mostly out of the kindness of his heart that he keeps a trickle of WOT videos going.
The instant the battle loaded and gun was shown I was like "122 on a KV-4, are you having a laugh?" then noticed the standard APCR shell and gold HEAT. I guess a lot have changed in that almost a decade of last playing a KV-4.
Back in 2016 when I still played this game, I loved this tank for it's "reversed" armor profile. Normal tanks have best armor at mantle and upper front plate and have weak spots at lower front, sides and commander's cupola. Meanwhile KV-4 has cupola with equal thickness to turret front, frontal armor equal to side armor, upper front plate having same thickness, but worse angling then lower plate and a hole in the mantle. And it's fairly quick for it's mass, which allows you to install superheavy shrapnel protection, making you nigh immune to artillery and self damage on rams. I loved an ability to be annoying, even if 99% of battles in it were at 8-10 range ie max uptiers.
I haven't played tanks since you quit being a contributor but I started again a little in December and oh my god I didn't realize how tuff it can be. So i got a year of wargaming credits and may do the tanks and ships
Since coming back in Mid-December its been an awful experience of endless losses and worst of all me not doing anything more than 2 or 3 penetrating hits I just wished my teammates I had half the balls our KV-4 friend here has
How about a video series focusing on teamwork in WOT and WOWS. Might help to build awareness in the player base. Some of the best battles I’ve played have been along these lines. No reward from wargaming but rewarding nonetheless
Reminds me of my Alliance blocked mission. Was block some thousand and do a few thousand. Got permatracked on a corner in my e3 and died with 0 done, 11k blocked 😂
"The proliferation of gold ammo at this level", Jingles, Gold might as well be standard for most players now, to the point people are firing only lower penning hesh at heavies because Gold=Better
I WISH i still has my kv-4 replay from back when the missions got introduced. Took my KV-4 parked half way in the banana on himmelsdorf against tier 9 and let the shots fly in. Over 20K bounced , but back then gold Ammo actually costed you gold so ppl didnt fire them like it was nothing. And there werent a lot of high pen Guns back then. Trully in the heavy tank meta, the more armor the better. And if you angled it right no1 got through without reaching for gold. Now it's a complete gold fest. Gold Ammo means credits and are therefore no longer only for ppl with big pockets who could throw money at the game like it was nothing.
New game mode for wargaming to monetize teamwork: no matter how much damage a teammate does to another tank, unless you yourself damage it, that tank is still on full health even after someone leaves it on 1 HP: A kv2 splash damages an M4 Sherman? You still need to do 460 HP worth of damage (or whatever it is for that Sherman in particular) while the KV2 just has to fart on him.
WG: hold my beer... Team chat can only be used with world of tanks plus subscription and if you send more than 5 messages within the span of 3 minutes you'll then be muted for 1 minute unless you subscribe to chat extension DLC that you can buy only with the world of tanks subscription and if you cancel your subscription of wot plus you'll also lose the access to the DLC.
Our chief weapon is surprise... surprise and fear... fear and surprise... Our two weapons are fear and surprise... and ruthless efficiency.... Our three weapons are fear, and surprise, and ruthless efficiency... and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope... Our four... no... Amongst our weapons... Amongst our weaponry... are such elements as fear, surprise... I'll come in again...
Dear Jingles. if you knew what happened yesterday you would not have touched WoT replay today. Namely WG have solde WTE100 to 3000 people on EU for 100000 gold each. Yes 100.000 gold. Remember when they said that China server company was selling WTE100 for 120 Euro and that they can't control it and would never do that? Well they kept their word. They did not sell it for 120 Euro they sold it for more then 3x more. Need I say that they took mine from my garage and gave me Grille 15 that I hated? So you take something of me and later on you demand 300 plus Euro for it?? That is theft. Plus there is a special battle pass no one can really finish for free so it is shit to play. Everyone wants to play more to pay as little as possible for Tier IX M103 version called Rambo. I couldn't even play yesterday. I have tried and 3 games were over in 6 minutes. That plus this WTE sale = did me in. Alt F4 and GG WG!
The eagle-eyed of you will notice, while Jingles was noting the E50's reluctance to charge into the fight with low hp, he was actually moving slower because he had supplemented his hull armor with a dead light tank.
thats some impressive improvised shield!
Best spaced armor!
@@ewok40k Not like the loli-tank was using it anymore.
That was a big brain move right there!
Jingles talking about "impressive thickness" for 5 minutes was not on my Bingo card but im not complaining
I hope no one heard that out of context.
"Baby, I'm *relying* on that impressive thickness."
It's not about how thick it is, it's how you angle it 😂
But thickness itself is not enough, you need to know how to angle it :D :D :D
KV-4 does have an impressive girth for sure.
good on the E5 for giving the KV4 props for saving his bacon
Definitely a good sport. Nice to see him doing well after.
teared up at the end with the zoomed in chat. "My Hero"
Man knows who held the ladder which he climbed to the top.
GGs all around
I don't think any other channel would have bothered with this replay, which is one of the many reasons I watch Jingles

@Tank50us You are supposed to start with "actually Jingles"
LOL
You just had to remind me of the days where platoons were free to everyone so long as the party leader had premium.
It's true, and because of that Teamwork is the one advantage that Wargaming have actively DE-monetized lol.
I really enjoyed this as it highlights the advantage of teamwork,
please do more teamwork type videos if you find anymore LOL
Thanks Jingles
good to see
IF he can find them...
Best times playing is when this happens. Very cool ! 😎
having a good teammate always makes things more fun & better gaming experience. my son & I play WoWs together sometimes - we voicechat while playing - are able to communicate & coordinate our movements. we once won 21 straight asymmetric battles in a row working together - one of the most fun times I've played the game
Best fun in the game is that rare moment when you twig someone is working with you
That was outstanding. It was always fun to try to keep a low health ally alive, because 2 guns in the fight are better than 1. E5 was a good player as well, "game recognized game".
I always get a little teary eyed when I see the good interaction of battle buddies.
This feels like one of those older WWII movies in which the unsung heroes fight to the bitter end, and only because of their efforts the rest of the army in that area are able to advance and take back a city or something
Finding a player willing to work together is a win unto itself these days, well played.
My favorite battles were when a random player worked with me in games. Win or lose that’s the best experience.
This video sent me down a rabbit hole about the KV-4 and all of its various proposed configurations (which, if you've never seen them, are all very silly). My wife thought it was adorable. Eagle Sword's heroics just keep on giving
Have you seen the Tank Encyclopedia articles on all the KV-4 proposals?
Hahahaha - Jingles talking about the remaining Tds reminded me of the spanish Inquisition or life of Brian:"They have 1 advantage - theire stealth .....and theire heavy guns. Actually they have 2 Advantages - theire stealth, theire guns and they only need to defend. So actually they have three advantages".
I was thinking about the, "Mr. Nesbitt has learned the importance of not being seen."
And a Fanactical devotion to the Pope. The four advantages.
The voice of Sanctuary in a crazy crazy world you’ve been needed this week more than you could know. Thankyou for staying on mission.
The KV4 is a fun tank to play, the biggest issue is that small turret on the turret yelling "Shoot me, shoot me".
The good team play with the E5.

Jingles, tell us what you think about the return of the WTF auf E100 😂
Surely I can interrupt my school work for Jingles? Who am I asking, of course I can!!
School work!? Why aren't you in the salt mines!? That stuff doesn't mine itself you know?
I used to love roflstomping in my KV-4 back when I used to play WoT, oh so many years ago. In the hands of a good player it was nearly invincible as long as you wiggled your turret to keep shots off the little mini-turret on top of the main turret
A KV-4 game? how many years since one of those has been featured it's usually light tanks or newer tanks.
The POV in the last 2/3 of the replay was rough AF.
Yeah, sitting watching two smoking tanks. Not too entertaining, for once.
@@CP-tm7be I won't say Jingles is phoning in the WOT videos, but he definitely doesn't take the same care with them that he did a few years ago. He really cares far more about World of Warships and it is mostly out of the kindness of his heart that he keeps a trickle of WOT videos going.
I wish I could build a dream team of 15 tanks that would all be in battle at the same time! Thank you for sharing this with us and GG! 😊
E50 on 14 health and a dream. Also jagtiger providing much underapreciated support when needed the most
Thank you jingles always fun to watch your videos
oh Jingles, I really love your videos!
The instant the battle loaded and gun was shown I was like "122 on a KV-4, are you having a laugh?" then noticed the standard APCR shell and gold HEAT. I guess a lot have changed in that almost a decade of last playing a KV-4.
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition? Made my day, @The Mighty Jingles!
Teamplay. Rare to find nowadays in WOT
Awesome! More teamwork videos, please!
Great teamwork!

Jingles got this ri. Teamwork, when it happens, simply works!
The only team game that doesn't directly reward team work.....
Holy crap a 3-5-7 mm in this day and age. Maaaan, I haven't seen this template in a long time.
I enjoyed that so much I'm going to watch it twice.
That was wholesome
I was so expecting this to turn out to be a game of throws
The best Landship is Friendlandship
*singing* C'mon! C'mon! Get down with the thickness! You gotta angle! Get down with the thickness!
I haven't played tanks since you quit being a contributor but I started again a little in December and oh my god I didn't realize how tuff it can be. So i got a year of wargaming credits and may do the tanks and ships
I'm also still on that mission and have been on it for quite some time. it's very very hard even with well armoured tanks
Morning lads 🫡
Good afternoon Gnome Overlord. Love you!
Since coming back in Mid-December its been an awful experience of endless losses and worst of all me not doing anything more than 2 or 3 penetrating hits
I just wished my teammates I had half the balls our KV-4 friend here has
How about a video series focusing on teamwork in WOT and WOWS. Might help to build awareness in the player base. Some of the best battles I’ve played have been along these lines. No reward from wargaming but rewarding nonetheless
I always remember a KV4 video that you showed here that got over 10k blocked damage, was insane, LOL
Tried to find it on the channel. but no luck.
Last time I was this early Centruian was a rank, not a tank.
Reminds me of my Alliance blocked mission. Was block some thousand and do a few thousand. Got permatracked on a corner in my e3 and died with 0 done, 11k blocked 😂
A great watch
Kv4 is my favourite t8 tank
Figure out what server he is on and we can send him some anon gold or something! That was some damn good work for the team and I will support it.
"The proliferation of gold ammo at this level", Jingles, Gold might as well be standard for most players now, to the point people are firing only lower penning hesh at heavies because Gold=Better
Woo top 5 lol another great video from the gnome overlord
What button do I have to push to load this "Teamwork" consumable of which you speak?
Kinda wish we'd seen the shots received stat. It would have let us guesstimate his actual damage blocked
If you got rewarded by the game for teamwork, they'd make it a point to figure out a way to monetize it.
Not spamming easy ammo, people being nice and templaying? Is this a dream?
Good luck for the HT mission N° 12 / 15 ... i give up (nice team work from our Hero in KV-4 - G.J) 😅
wait when did this tank get a gun with APCR as standard? was it always like this?
Jingles, there is a reward for teamwork: brothers in arms
Jingles, you sound like the Spanish Inquisition!
Team Work makes the Dream Work!
When did the KV-4 get a 122 with HEAT rounds? Last I remember it, it had the 122 from the IS only.
Isn't there a way of activating free camera when showing a replay so that your view is not stuck on the dead tank?
I WISH i still has my kv-4 replay from back when the missions got introduced. Took my KV-4 parked half way in the banana on himmelsdorf against tier 9 and let the shots fly in.

Gold Ammo means credits and are therefore no longer only for ppl with big pockets who could throw money at the game like it was nothing.
I just figured out how to monetarize team work. Don't all shoot me at once.
How do i send in my replays to you?
That's the way to play the kv-4 nowadays
no one expects the spanish inquisition

lol impressive thickness
I gave up on the game because... WHY CAN'T I EVER GET TEAMMATES LIKE THIS ?!?!?!?!?!?!
✌
Why does this video feel like deshapu
👍
What kind of bullshit is that dmg absorbed by tracks doesn't count???
I rather watch a TD camping a bush raking up dmg and kills tbh.
cute game
It looks like a Russian TOG.
Our chief weapon is surprise... surprise and fear... fear and surprise... Our two weapons are fear and surprise... and ruthless efficiency....

seems like they could have won by capping after killing the amx
Spam of gold as usual.
😉😉
is the WoT replay that bad or did you choose to stay with the dead tanks?
[insert shotgun clicking joke]
Useless early comment
Problem with wot is 1 good game is followed by 100 rubbish ones.

No views in 17 seconds? I think hes dropping off ://
wtf was that... that was no fun 2 watch
War gaming going down in a ball of flames. Couldn't happen to a more incompetent bunch!
