    Thank you all for watching! I will say this is probably my most controversial tier list to date with some of my hot takes here haha I wanted to also say that Kamikaze and Crimson Fury go hand-in-hand to me. I just prefer playing as Kamikaze for the freeze special so that's why they get a bump up to C-Tier. Otherwise they pretty much are both D tier characters IMO.
    I know alot of people are going to say Juggernaut deserved S tier for being broken and I honestly agree with you! My only reason for preferring Darkside is because of their amazing maneuverability/speed along side their broken ram damage. Plus, in online play Juggernaut is not very good at all. Sooooo Darkside Wins :)
    Lastly, Warthog is NOT Trash tier, no matter how much I hate him for just being MID after going through literal hell to unlock him. Yes, we all hate him. But he's still just MID... not trash.

    Shadow's special gets more powerful the further it travels. After a few seconds, a direct hit will do 90 damage. It can be tricky, but pulling it off is devastating. His secondary also doesn't just explode when you lob it. If it doesn't hit anything, it will sit and cook like a remote bomb, and once it is charged up it does pretty big damage. Give my boy another chance!

      I didn't know about the longer distance = more damage with his special! That's actually really cool. Personally I still prefer meat wagon overall as the more fun character to play as, but I suppose I'd probably bump shadow up to an A tier then if that's the case where it's just a skill gap making his special feel less powerful

      Yeah, the secondary special can do 120 damage and 130 if a opponent hits it. Plus, it can damage multiple enemies. The world record in the second race was done with shadow. The guy killed the enemies before getting to stadium. I did 3 minutes or so in dual juggernauts by just using shadow, without garage and without using juggernaut on twisted difficulty. The same in mean juggernauts. Also, the only way I could get gold on twisted without using the garage or juggernaut in the endurance match in watkyns harbor was by using shadow.

    Reaper is easily my favorite in this game, because it's energy gauge refills so fast. And that alone makes it so strong even with the low armor. Plus when Reaper uses energy moves it costs less than the other vehicles. So good speed, great special and can spam the energy moves a lot more than the other vehicles.

    @alexmichaelraccoonplays8777 10 місяців тому +3

    As for juggernaut, you really need to use turbo dash (learned in the training mode) and he will obliterate everything. Also, it works better in teams, since the second player can use the turrets as the juggernauts in the story mode do. Also, the freeze missil doesn't affect juggernaut. Juggernaut can use the absorption shield more often than other vehicles, so when you are about to get hit with a freeze, use the absorption shield, you will send back a fully charged stalker missile and you will get back your energy (you can do this also when playing as other vehicles), but again, the absorption shield can be used like 3 or 4 times when playing as juggernaut before depleting your energy.

  • @alexmichaelraccoonplays8777
    @alexmichaelraccoonplays8777 10 місяців тому +2

    Axel and warthog special do chain damage. For example, if you hit an enemy with axel it does 70, then 80, 90 and 100. If you manage to hit a single enemy 4 times you will do 340. Or you can do 70 damage to one enemy and then 80 to another. (I don't remember well if it really starts doing 70 or 60. I did like 3 minutes or so in the mean juggernauts event with Axel. I know crimson fury is the best choice for races, but I also won the diesel city race with axel.

    Don't forget that Sweet Tooth's special also goes through pretty much everything to hit its target. And when you learn him and figure out the bot mode he can be pretty strong. Sure it's over the top but that's what "Twisted Metal" is all about lol. TM 2012 Sweet Tooth is my favorite version ( vehicle wise). But that's my opinion lol. Awesome video BTW.

    I already commented about shadow in another comment lol. But, the secondary special can be used as a remote bomb. It does 120 damge when fully charged if you detonate it close to an enemy and it damages multiples enemies. If an enemy hits it without you detonating it, it does 130 damage.

    I played this game all the time with my brother while online vs was still available. Sweet Tooth is honestly OP. Go into flight mode with mega guns equipped and it homes in on enemies dealing great damage. I cant remember if it was nerfed bad or not (I think it was nerfed a little for sure)before online play went down, but I remember that being near broken. Talon was also great with mega gun homing but had less armor than sweet tooth, so it sometimes had trouble facing off vs mainly sweet tooth in the open. You can use shield to stop freezes when you see them coming, or make a getaway behind something if you're flying and under fire. I played reaper and talon the most, but tried all the cars somewhat.

    Junkyard dog's secondary special also works like the coffin of shadow or a remote bomb. The longer it stays, the more damage it does (60 damage). I also beat mean juggernauts with junkyard dog and it also took me like 3 minutes or so. The secondary special online heals teammates instead of doing damage to enemies. And junkyard dog can also do decent ram damage. And that's it. I don't have anything else to say. Sorry for spamming comments. I hope my thoughts help you change or at lest see the vehicles from another perspective.

  • @alexmichaelraccoonplays8777
    @alexmichaelraccoonplays8777 10 місяців тому +1

    Yeah, every car can do ram damage, but Mr. Grimm does like 5 ram damage lol. Darkside has 290 hp, warthog has 300, juggernaut has 400 (at least the offline version). Also, the juggernauts we fight have 300 damage and they take double damage if you hit them in the red point or in the doors where they are open. I think this weakness is only a weakness the juggernauts in the story mode have. I think the online juggernaut has 700 hp. Also, the minigun darkside has can be used the same way you use the talon's turret, which means you don't have to keep pushing the button, instead, release the button to save your bullets if an enemy goes behind a wall to protect himself, and then press again the button to keep using the same special. I think sweet tooth has 250 hp and jubkyard dog has 260. With heavy vehicles use turbo dash to do even more ram damage. Turbo dash is something you can learn by playing the training mode. 😊

    Maybe it was in the early beta days or shortly after release but, I specifically remember much of the community response around Talon that it was TOO GOOD in multi-player settings.
    Though its entirely possible changes were made, or specific modes in multi-player Talon's ability to pick cars up (friend and foe) fly away into the cosmos was incredibly gamebreaking.

    One of the best things about ST's special in black is that he can hit the 10/10 hits' damage bonus the zoomy missiles have twice, meaning that if you manage to get it right it hits like a truck (moreso than darkside's special, which is this expression taken to a literal sense lol).

    @darkside9547 10 місяців тому +1

    Even though i havent played Twisted Metal 2012 yet,
    Here's my thoughts on the vehicles based how on how i see it.
    . Meat Wagon: I found it surprisingly on how they manage to bring an ambulance car in the Twisted Metal for the first time. All i can say about the vehicle is that it looks pretty good and the design looks pretty wacky better than having it as ambulance truck. Its special weapon its pretty humorous consider you're sending patients to explode at the other vehicles hence why its Meat Wagon. For being an ambulance vehicle for its first appearance in the Twisted Metal game it wasnt bad.
    . Outlaw: Similar to the TM black version except, aside for being a SUV, it feels a little faster and its special weapon looks better while using blood missiles. Its design its pretty neat although i wished they added its tazer weapon.
    . Junkyard Dog: I am surprised that this vehicle makes a comeback since TM Black but not Brimstone. What can i said about this vehicle, it's pretty decent, i like his color design and its special its pretty cool although a bit sluggish to use, although its fitting for Junkyard Dog since he collects disfunctional cars and throw them at the enemy, too bad it has to be Yellow Jacket LOL.
    . Roadboat: I fucking despised this car for many reasons:
    1. Its slow as fuck hence why its called with that name.
    2. Its special, while it may look neat to see it as magnet weapon, its pretty weak.
    3. Its design looks something that Roadkill could have been if it was badly damaged ir heavily armored.
    Dont know why but they should have brought back Thumper ( due to its design) or Crazy 8 ( due to its eight ball pool ball).
    . Shadow: It ok but its design really doesnt have that same gloomy vibe as the other versions of Shadow heck its flame tattoo painting really doesn't fit at all with Shadow. Its special weapon it's good especially with the detonation sequence. Ok but not as charming as the other versions.
    . Roadkill: Its design its neat but its special weapon kinda sucks, if there was any chance its special weapon should have been the classic boomerang from TM2 or the Steel Dagger from TM1 to give a nice reference. There really isn't anything to say about Roadkill except it has decent armor, speed and handling.
    . Vermin: I like this car simply because it feels like Google Eye's succesor, its special weapon its good and its design its cool although his color should have white to give a nod reference to Google Eye, aside from its speed and handling this vehicle its unique along with Meat Wagon. I like how when you use the special the music starts playing.
    . Axel: its special its pretty effective but for some reason it feels off, maybe its because Axel isnt the game but its vehicle is. Its handling its ok and speed its decent but its armor isnt good. Dont know why they put this vehicle in it, guess its just starting to feel overrated.
    . Reaper: Basically Mr. Grimm with a new name. Its special its a one hit kill and one of the main reasons( my opinion) why it could be handy on the Twisted Difficulty. While it may not be as fast or has agile as the other motorcycle versions, its still effective to use due to its deadly weapon.
    . Death Warrant: Basically Roadkill but with a different design and different stats, it has the same special weapon as Roadkill and its still sucks. For me the special weapon could have been a powerful version of the napalm or some sort of weapon disc. Not a fan of this car aside from it's speed and its design feels like TM3 Spectre.
    . Crimson Fury: Still fast but its armor feels worse, almost as bad as its TM1 self. The main problem i have with Crimson fury is its special weapon which is a flamethrower, it should have been the laser beam from its previous incarnations. It may have the speed and handling but its looks and feels harder to olay as Crimson Fury.
    . Sweet Tooth: Its design its cool but also bulky, it has a stiff handling feel and sluggish speed. Its first special weapon its quite good kinda like Spectre's ghost missile but its second one doesnt look as cool as the one from TM Black and it feels overrated and unnecessary. Still fun car to play as.
    . Talon: As much as i found Warhawk unique in TM Black, Talon isnt worth to play as unless if its for certian situations( like the final boss). In fact, Talon doesnt even fit in Twisted Metal at all, the reason why Warhawk fits well in TM black is because he is the final boss. Its Tri gun special weapon may look cool but feels weak while the one in which it grabs the car and release it from a great height can be quite handy but it feels overcheap LOL.
    . Darkside: Pretty powerful to be honest but its design feels stiff and awkard to play as. Its special weapons are qyite effective especially the Tri Gun and its classic Ramming attack ( i do like the horn sound he does when you use the ramming weapon). My only complaints are its sluggish feel design and stiff handling.
    . Kamikaze: I dont know why but i feel that Spectre should have been in this game than Kamikaze. Its has the same special weapon as Crimson fury, excepts its stats are a little better than Crimson Fury's but thats not saying much. Dont get me wrong Kamikaze looks cool and decnt to play but if i were to choose between Spectre and Kamikaze i choose Spectre. The irony is that while the vehicle its called Kamikaze it isnt a japanese car, in fact, is a german car.
    . Juggernaut: Technically Darkside except 2.0, its pretty OP to play as and feels as stiff as Darkside, its design could have been better as it could have been a different type truck instead of being like Darkside. It's most powerful weapon is its ramming since it equals Reaper 's special weapon.
    . Warthog: F@*k Warthog!

    Crimson fury is obviously the best choice for races. It's even faster than kamikaze. The flamethrower does slightly more damage than that of kamikaze, but not too much. The bemefit of Kamikaze's secondary special is that you don't have to use energy to freeze the enemies and it can freeze multiple enemies. If you have two or more powet missiles, you can shoot them when the enemies are frozen.

    Phew oh man as Roadboat main all I can say is ouch. You missed quite a few nuances that make him respectably balanced while not being overpowered like all the top tier shadow users from back in the day. First off his main special while not ubber damaging on a straight up hit had great tracking and was one of the only weapons that could be fired with inertial, i.e you could do a hand break slide and angle it to home in and curve around corners. This allowed it to follow cars on curvy roads where as missile would auto track where a car was driving, and hit walls. It also could bounce off surfaces, and had a hidden multiplier so it would do quadruple damage up to 150 same as reaper if you hit someone on the first bounce! The magnet could also be used with mega guns for some player pissing off hijinx "nowhere near as bad as pre nerf talon though." Or to hold an enemy while your team ganged up on them in multiplayer. Truly the best utility, and team player car in the game imo.

    I think Reaper should be ranked higher simply because in the footage you used you got so many kills with him in a short amount of time, it was basically performing as well as darkside, except you have to actually avoid damage rather than trade damage. I personally never used the rpg it was just a death sentence, the flaming chainsaw didn’t take long to recharge or light it on fire so it was a quick 2 hit on light characters

    Warthog is the worst version of axel. His shock wave only damages opponents in front of him. Axel is faster and has the ability to jump super high. Warthog has more armor but it also has a weak point that takes double damage. For example, a flamesaw from reaper will destroy Warthog if it hits the weak point.

    Death Warrant actually has higher armor and speed than Roadkill, whereas Roadkill has a stronger special and can rear fire for drop mines
    Also this video is Shadow slander the special doesn’t act like Meat Wagon at all, it’s the usual Shadow special where you manually detonate, except it gets stronger over time (and the damage goes up surprisingly quickly)
    Shadow’s special also bounces off walls, and even non direct hits can get 60 damage, and since you have a camera in the corner it’s pretty easy to blow it up near people

      I didn't say that it is the same special as meat wagon, but that it acts about the same. Clearly they are different haha The only part of their special I forgot to mention was that it does increase it's damage over time before it hits the enemy! With that being said, I would bump Shadow up to A tier to match meat wagon in that regard, even if I still prefer meat wagon overall.

      ​@@VicariousNickGamingmeat wagon's special acts more like vermin's special. Meat wagon's primary special does 40 damage, goes on the ground and can be rear fired, vermin's primary special goes through the air, does 30 damage and it is faster than meat wagon's primary special but it can't be rear fired. As for the secondary special, both meat wagon and vermin shot their specials that are controlled manually. Meat wagon's secondary special does 90 damage, vermin's secondary special can do 50 or 100 damage. Meat wagon has 210 hp, vermin has 205 but it's fastert than meat wagon. I already said everything about shadow but I forgot to mention shadow has 240 hp. So, meat wagon is more on the same level as vermin, they both have a secondary special that work "about the same" and they both are exposed when you use the secondary speecial. I even prefer vermin over meat wagon. Lol
