Spookston trying to figure out why he gets all the air attention: 1.: You're in an asu-57 2.: You're covered in bushes You totally deserve all the attention, not gonna lie there.
@@robertharris6092 Yeah it's hard to counter them if you don't have a dedicated vehicle to take them out Last game I played after dying once to a bomb I spawned in a Wirbelwind. But my aim wasn't amazing after 4 years of not having played the game my aim wasn't so good and I got strafed and died. Then I spawned in a Hetzer. I got strafed and died immediately after losing spawn protection. I still had some spawn points left so I spawned in the flak sfl. I thought that maybe I won't get killed immediately, or maybe someone else will shoot them down, but no I died immediately to a plane for the 4th time in that match. The game can be fun sometimes But mostly it's just suffering because of planes in my experience. And I guess it's not for me. I'll stick to World of Tanks Blitz. At least Wargaming didn't ruin that version yet...
Bush camo is super effective. Not only for hiding weakspots and making you unrecognizable but it makes it very easy to be overlooked when people are looking around for some tank silhouette.
The goal is not total stealth (though if you can achieve it, super), the goal is merely to cause just enough hesitation that you get to shoot (or scoot) first. Hiding weak spots I've always had mixed results. In real life, the goal was to break up the vehicle. In an era of infrared sensors and "fire and forget" however, that becomes much less important.
@@hhale It's still very important, many just struggle with the stuff that works. Russians got "Nakidka" (Coveralls) kit that hides the vehicles enough to outsnipe enemy in thermal vs thermal engagement. Ukraine got their Oplot T-84 tank with very low side skirts NATO is all over the place. They only start to get a consensus that drivetrain heats up too much and need some sort of good compromise between length of skirt and offroad capabilities. That's why Abrams X prototype got these weird wavy skirts with rubber-fabric screens on the tips. Out of all westerners, I think Japan is on top of the game with Type 10. Offcourse, there are brits, with their Challenger II, but brits can stuff themselves. With WW3 chances rising, I think we'll see very interesting one step forward, two steps back dynamics with active protective systems. ATGMs are bane of tank's existence, and hard-kill protection system feel obligatory, However, system requires RADARS to operate reliably and both sides got both satellites and Electronic Recon planes, which got capabilities to get ELINT reading on any radar as far as 400km away from their location. Which is not enough to provide effective fire, but enough to shoot ARH mortar rounds, artillery shells and missiles.
That’s how ground players in tanks look we look for silhouettes. When we are in a plane we don’t look form silhouettes, we look for any movement and any differences in terrain.
Love the doppler effect edit for the shell zooming by you at 1:28. Made me flinch and wanting to nope out of there, without being the one who is playing.
I'm surprised Spookston hasn't put in an edit of Rattlesnake Jake freaking out when the bats in Rango flew over in the shape of a hawk. That exact reaction is how I imagine most ground RB players feel when they hear multiple C.A.S. plane engine sounds at once over them but they're in the middle of the trees and can't see the sky clearly.
They’re both rather good, but the 906 has a bigger advantage due to its br, with a full stabilizer, potent APHE, and quicker reload. Plus the fact you have a large lineup to back you up at 7.7. 8.7 just isn’t as good
Despite being too broke to contribute myself other than by watching, it makes me happy to see a longer outro segment just because of the number of patrons now. Looking back 1 or 2 years really makes you realise how well you've done and how far you've come with hard work. Glad you're doing well in the whole YT thing and making something out of it too, and hope to see more.💙
Reminds me of a group of arseholes artillerybombing the point from their nestled up positions far back, it was Eastern Europe, somewehre behind the enemy spawn's treeline. Bastards wore the entire forest for half the fecking match.
I could tell you were losing your grip with reality little by little lolol. I have a love hate relationship with bushes so it just equals out to meh most of the time lol. My quest for the Super Pershing will not end. Requesting this tank when time allows:)
you can block your view with bushes, on RB you are actually aiming from your barrel. On SB game forces you to use gunner sight and you will just block it if you try to stick bushes on all of your turret.
Actually, if you choose to use the gunner sight view instead of somehow sticking a camera inside the barrel, it does get obstructed by bushes, much like commander view sometimes does
hiding in the shadows works a bit to avoid getting bombed. the lighting is a bit broken and it will make your blend in quite well. i use this to avoid drones for a bit, until they have thermals, then just become the lorax and hope the trees help you.
I hearby query the one and only Spookston of yore to entertain us with the prospect of utilizing the amx-13-m24, for it is so inherently unsightly that it gives the kingdom the chuckles.
Devil's advocate, as much as ground matches feel like Air RB right now, if there is any vehicle that deserves a swift smiting in all of WT, it's the shrubs on treads.
Play the bt7a at top tier.it's fast maneuverable and small basicslly what you like. It has 70mm of aphebc pen ( it's actuslly closer to 90) The explosive filler is enough to kill most afvs and can pen the sides. Of tanks.
This literally. The BT-7A (F-32) is my dream tank to get. I love the BT tanks so much and the BT-7A (F-32) is the most uptier viable out of them. I just hope when the next crate event starts, the BT-7A (F-32) will be included and its price will hopefully go down to 30 euros as I would gladly buy that that under that price, it's just too price-y atm.
Admittedly the reason bushes are scummy isnt really cause of the camouflage and sneak aspect, but because people use them to hide the weakpoints of heavy tanks
I loved playing this so much when it came out. Playing this in sim is some of the most fun you can have. I mean, not as much fun as the KV-220, but close!
When I tell people who don't play the game that one of the most OP things in WT is literal bushes, they all think I'm joking. *furiously gesticulates at the evil bushgoblin ASU*
Can we get a "boom-lance" video where you just maneuver and side-ram barrel-stuff people in the asu, t55, or breda? Something with no turret with enough speed to make physical contact before firing
I think that the lesson we've all learned today is to put the bushes on the top of your vehicle (it's easy to spot tanks from air, they're all uncovered, but a random fat bush wouldn't draw much attention I think)
Video recommendation(one or multiple videos): Play a variety of anti-aircraft/interceptor and just go doomslayer on anyone who dares to deploy CAS, partly as revenge against CAS but also as repentance for using bushes.
Strange string of emotions watching this one.. On the one hand I feel your pain of getting constant revenge killed by CAS. On the other hand my brain was going "he deserved it for being a scummy bush tank". EDIT: I initially didn't think much of the decoration bushes, like "oh cool a cosmetic thing for people to play around with". Then I started seeing things like KV-1B, Jumbo, Panther, , and the front of them look like the front of this ASU-57.. My opinion immediately switched to bushes being a form of P2W (yes I know you can get 'free' bushes), that are super easy exploit and ruin everyone else game experience with.
Hey spookston i know you hate slow tanks soooo how about you play a tank with a very slow reverse and do a reverse only challenge. I think it would be fun to see you suffer (love your videos)
I find myself in the strange position of watching your videos intently even though I currently don't even have WT installed. I just find the videos enjoyable. Which is meant as a compliment. Also- the use of C&C Generals music in the background stirred nostalgia something fierce and I had to go play a generals challenge map... or 3. It also helps me live less 'dangerously' since my watercooler on my rig died and graphically intensive games tend to overheat my CPU(s) now... I know... that's not a good idea but I'm poor. I'm scraping up to afford a repair. Also also- 'Double bushed' was a term I likely overused during my 'tenure' as a WoT player. I *do* still have that installed, but it makes my rig run very hot and it is... less enjoyable than it once was, so I'm not playing that either. but I digress. Good video, keep doing you. And slamming German mains and 'soviet bias'...
1:15 i think it would be cool if they actually made you use the gunner sights in RB like they do in SB. It would also prevent people from completely bushing up their turrets or shooting out of a smoke by putting the barrel just out of the smoke.
I feel like they need to up SP cost of fighters by 30% and switch light tank spawn cost with heavy tank spawn cost. This would greatly reduce early cas SPAM and it would make sense for scouting to reduce cas cost etc.
There should be a limit of so many planes per team at a time, and also how many can be used in one match in total (maybe have it so capping a point gives +0.5 plane spawns to the team). Furthermore have it so planes can't be spawned before 5 minutes into a match.
I was kind of hoping to see the "I think his mate saw me" clip from Meet the Sniper but with the amount of times you died to planes there was nowhere it would have fit in
Thanks for the video! I dislike planes in GRB too, I feel like if I'm playing good, have survived for a longtime and made a dent in the enemies vehicle count I get strafed, bombed or rocketed.
Today, I've become the very thing I swore to destroy.
