Just got a message ingame, with a link to this battle... what an honor, and a christmas gift from you to use one of my games in a video. Love your content, the fact that you think the same than me on the game, the updates and everything. Happy christmas everyone! I changed my youtube name, but you'll see that this account name in adress bar is still Mrtutur37 :D
yep, but sensitive snowflakes complained to wargaming to get it changed. sad that wargaming thinks so little of its playerbase that it forces these changes onto everyone. if people cant handle the chat without crying then they could just turn their chat off instead of ruining it for everyone else. free speech is constantly under attack these days by idiots who think they have everyones best interests in mind.
Joe Davys yeah that is the main reason they made chat the way it is now. Too many people just gave away locations of their teammates due to them being AFK (which is what I experienced most of the time when they did reveal their location), or they were mad at their team for reasons.
Blox117 this is so false, no one thinks this. People were fine with profanity filter and ability to turn chat on or off. No one wanted all chat to go away
I'm pretty sure that those medals are not the ones that Tutur got, as I'm 1000% sure "Orliks Medal" was not in the game back when the T-50-2 in the tech tree. The client is showing You what medals player would get now, as I guess that Wittmann's medal was removed from game files.
Man, anyone else have the issue of thinking everything added after you started as new? All tier 10s that aren’t heavies are new, E-100 line is new, is-4 comes before is-7, t110e5 is new, French ranks are all new
Hey, to think we were something with graphics like that. ahahahahaha!! I thought I was something playing this game on a laptop from 2010 back in the day.
KV-1S and Helcat were all you ever saw in clan wars back then. The KV-1S was so broken, it was as fast as a medium, decent armor for a tank of that tier, a crazy 120mm gun on a tier 6!!! and it had good rate of fire with 8 degrees of gun depression! Like truly it was a monster!
lol I remember all of these things you are talking about. I joined mid 2012, so have seen so many changes just like many of you watching. Crazy how far Wargaming has come, it is a shame they have killed the game for the new player base though.
“Back in the day” aka when game play trumped graphics and enlarging the player base trumped milking and shrinking base for more cash. Things started to go down hill around 9.3
Who remembers this being the active scout The Chaffee being the passive scout And the Vk2801 being the ramming derping light tank This is a throwback to when I was active on wot, they’ve added new tanks that are superior to mine and I just can’t keep up with the implementation of newer and better tanks, as soon as I got my 907 the 430u got released 😪
Good ol days mate, look at the team line ups on both side! no premium and no OP broken tanks! you could take a KV-5 with that giant R2D2 weakspot and still have a very healthy game. This is why i played world of tanks back in 2013.
The OG Chaffee was my favourite tank. Grinding how much XP in the M5 for it. Then spending 80k credits a game just to run the thing... killing E100s and Maus with it was the best. The t37 does not stack up.
Old Chaffee was the best, but the previous version of the Chaffee and T37 (as in, before tier 10 lights were added) were great too. 77 km/h on the Chaffee was a lot of fun, and the T37 had a monster gun (150mm pen, .38 acc) before they nerfed them both into oblivion.
Hell Yeah I loved this tank. Bombing it around all Tier 10 tanks Thank you for giving ne back my memories from my childhood. Love your Terrible content. Keep up!
QB, you got to remember, back then tier 5 light tanks could see tier 10 tanks which is why they had such crazy stats. I am glad they gave us back our T-50-2's.
Well like the T-50-2 it was fun because it was balanced for +5. Inc that high pen, insane view range and DPM the old Chaffe had. Tho now that's basically the nerfed T37 that comes close.
@@Balc0ra Lol the T37 of today isn't even close after WGing ripped it's teeth out and shot out both kneecaps. fucking .45 accuracy on a light tank with no armor is a bad joke.
Replays were enabled by default in Closed Beta Testing, and again in Beta Testing, QB. Once the game went live, you had to check the Replays setting in the Settings menu. There's even a thread about it in the EU WOT forum dating back to Mar 2012. In the 1st Closed Beta event, I had the Panther, and I've never had it since, and I have a saved Replay in that Panther. When 1st Closed Beta ended, I used the XP gained from the Panther, which was top of the tree in German mediums, to jump straight into the IS7 in the 2nd Closed Beta.
Apparently, all-chat was removed because of so many people using it to reveal the positions of their own team's arty (and less frequently other tanks) to the enemy. Personally I still think it should come back.
@-T-X-M- but don't you agree? I would rather have a mate who writes nothing but plays like a teamplayer than vice versa. The chat is negligible. I support the idea of introducing the all-chat again but I am also strongly against distracting and distracted players. Nothing kills more the fun than this. Battles have to be entertaining by the events in the battle not the chat.
@Eric Manning Here is a comment from me: "Look at this chat. It's so alive and vivid. Wargaming should open the chat again. But with the restriction that only players who are not destroyed can use the all-chat. This will make the chat fun and vivid again but it also prevents that mates will write the location of friendly tanks to the enemy. And every another kind of rage (e.g. a destroyed player insults the enemy one) will be vanished. I think this is the best way and idea to introduce the general chat today. It was mostly fun at the beginning and in the middle of the battle where most or half of all players survived. And most bad things happened at the end of the battle where most players are destroyed. So yeah, this how the all-chat should be added again." This is my whole opinion on the chat.
@Eric Manning For this problem Wargaming could easily add such a system after the battle (like Blitz). So after the battle you can give a short feedback like "Likes" on Facebook. But yeah, ofc it's not the same like doing this in the battle but I guess there are more idiots who will insult the other player than people like you. My idea is just the beginning. Everything else will depend on the player base. But even this idea will make 90% of the chat like it was back then without giving bad players the chance to reveal their mate's position or to insult the player who destroyed them. Glad that you like it :)
Merry Christmas for 2018!! I wish all of you the best of luck on the battlefield in 2019. And to you QB, keep up the good content and stay a happy camper! ;P
I remembered being able to talk to the enemies... Miss it! Been playing since 2011 aswell! Played closed betas for World of Warships and Warplanes aswell!
I played in that age. It was definely not. There was no way to battle against a kv-1s in a crappy vk36.01. There was only 4 tanks that could be used, all the other tanks was absolutely bad. Do you remember the t49? And the ELC AMX before bis? Maybe it was better than nowadays but 2015/16 was definely the gold age of world of tanks. In these days the bad bug was fixed, the overpowered vehicle was deleted/nerfed and it was all balanced more or less. I remember the tiger II as a good and balanced tank. Now it is absolutely obsolete (and it is still my favorite tank). From 2016/17 it started to exist again overpowered (premium) vehicles and the game went fast back in the old "unbalanced situation". Now there is premium equipment....lol
@@altagerfigaro_ex1ita473 Ya you make fair points I guess I would have to go back and play it again to really remember how it was...Maybe what I should have said was it was the period of WOT that I enjoyed the most,I stopped playing about 6 months ago because the game is just broken at mid tiers and playing tier 10 all the time gets old..cheers :)
You did the right choice to stop playing wot 6 months ago.... Last monts were really embarrassing in wot... There are a lot of thing that i can say but I will say only one: now the IS-3A is a tier 8 premium tank with pretty the same characteristics as the standard IS-3 BUT with an autoreloader. So you can smash 3x (390 dmg) shots in just 6 seconds and later you can decide to fire every shot one by one (in a faster reloading time than the standard IS-3) without reload the entire magazine. And dulcis in fundum: the only way to have this tank is to find it in premium (RANDOM) loot boxes: so you can get it for 6€ or you can spend even more than 200€ without finding it
this is sooo nostalgic for me … I used to suck back then, whereas now i'm above average, yet i'd love to go back for a while to re-experience those golden days :)
Damn, I'd love to play WoT as it was back in 8.6, it was such a great game that day. Really sad what they did with it. Not even the recently proposed changes to WoT will make it great again. (unless they nerf OP shit premium tanks and massively nerf prem rounds)
If i remember correctly, having T-50-2 or Chaffee was very often the mark of elite tanker in those days. You needed double much XP (maybe 60k or more) to research them on tier V, so less people were researching them. But the good T-50-2 scout was part of the succesful game, because tanks had lower vierange.
Hello Quicky and merry Christmas to you and your family :) I really appreciate that you find the motivation to provide us with high quality content for such a long period of time :)
Quicky how bout you take us down memory lane on some old type 59 battles before it was ever nerfed. Ps, how much longer are the Christmas boxes going to be on sale for.
I remember when you used to have to use a text command to see the server crosshair and how it was literally possible to have your visual turret turn 180 degrees in the opposite direction of where the servers thought your turret was aiming. That's probably why that T25/2 fired when he did.
That KV-1s was absolutely broken back in the day. Could 2 to 3 shot equal tiered tanks, had great armor and was pretty mobile. I do not miss that ridiculousness at all but I would take that overpowered tank any day of the week over what WoT has become now. All the loot boxes, over powered premium tanks, over buffed armor and the horrible match making has ruined this game.
Best thing about the KV-1S was that when a Tiger II proxy spotted you around corner he immediately reversed and got scared of that 122mm gun. Its pretty OP when a 2 tiers higher heavy just does not want to trade with a tier VI tank and rather reverses lol
@@shmekelfreckles8157 lootboxes are not only a problem in WoT, but in the entire gaming industry. That cancer needs to be cleaned, same with microtransactions. Keep in mind that wen you buy a lootbox in a game, you are literally throwing your money at a glorified gambling system created to fuck you in your ass. Don't buy lootboxes, don't do it on WoT, or any other game.
@@3men219 Fixing WoT is EZ. Get rid of Loot boxes; Improve MM; Use ranking system for MM; Nerf arty, limit 1 per battle; Bring back all chat; Nerf premium tanks(improve economy for them so they still earn good money but are not dangerous to the normal tanks so much); Nerf japanese heavies or even delete them; make tank classes more useful, being super heavy tank in current state of the game is pretty much useless.
Holy crap, I totally remember this. I totally remember looking down a barrel of a KV-2 on himmelsdorf because he suddenly appeared without me knowing lol. Scary thinking you spot a tank but they appear on your screen late to where they're already aiming at you....
WRT what you said about Bölter's Medal: I joined WoT in very early 2013 (16th Jan to be exact) and by that time the medal was gone - I clearly remember my struggles to get my first Radley-Walters as some sort of milestone achievement and know that Bölter's was never in my grasp as it was gone before I started playing.
Got a Bölter in april 2012 in my ARL 44 (ua-cam.com/video/G5vX0jUznKM/v-deo.html). There were still tier 5 KV with 107 and 152 mm guns, tier 5 Pz IV S, and tier 6 KV 3 (KV 1S was not yet seen as "the" OP heavy tank in tier 6).
Thinking back, just started playing this game one month before that replay came into existence. Didn't get far enough for the T-50-2 before it was removed though and still managed to become a passionate light tanker to this day. What I particularily like about that video is, that it is showing how awful that game actually was. And yet it seems like most of the community are complaining about WoT not being like it used to be. OP tanks? Supposed pay to win mechanics? Bad match making? The nostalgic filter at its best. Tanks man, and happy holidays.
Back when I started WoT, the T-50-2 was actually my first objective and I had some very fun games with it before it was removed. Now, the Chaffee is the only one left of the elite trio that hasn't been nerfed too badly.
This used to be my favourite tank for a very long time, playing with this against Tier 10s was the funniest thing ever. I clearly remember bouncing a shell of a T110E3 once with the gun mantlet :D
Oh I remember plenty of times getting shot up by a good player on a faster computer in lower tier games. They would zip around a corner put around into me then be all the way back into the corner before my system would even ping or let me see them! It was mind boggling and quit maddening, Made me buy a whole new set to just to play this game rofl!
I remember an even older battle on that map, in 2012 or 2013 I think. There were more bushes just off the far NE curving road from the North cap to the town and I'd hidden in one with my Marder 2. It was before proximity spotting was in World of Tanks and an enemy literally just drove right past my TD in the bush without seeing me. :)
Ah, the good old days...Watching this video i remembered Stalingrad and Kharkov, the only two maps that had their unique music intro back in the day. Its a pity WG has not released them in 1.0
You make an IMPORTANT mistake at 1:18. Light tanks were - indeed - considered as having a +1MM. However, the 'old' tier 5 tanks - chaffee, VK2801, T-50-2 - were matched as a tier 8 tank, being able to see tier 10 frequently. The only thing of the same tier they could see was artillery, as those tiers were only getting up to tier 8, and other light tanks.
i still remember my chaffee game, in a tier 10 match. (highest XP i ever got in it.) ran out of ammo on a T100, good times and chafee gun was monstrous at that time
I started playing world of tanks in 2013 and seeing this makes me miss the old gun sounds... Felt more powerful when shooting a 122mm and having that sweet beefy sound, now it sounds more like an airsoft gun to me..
I had 1500+ games in this thing -- it was so insane. I actually got a Steel Wall in it fighting against Tier IXs (one time only) as enemy shells hit at weird angles and ricocheted off as I zigged and zagged along ridges as I ran away (no physics to worry about then).
Before i had the FCM50t i acutally used KV1S for making credits while derping 390 alpha into Tiger IIs and T34s. It acutally worked pretty good as a credit maker.
I miss the old Chaffee with the T37's turret. It was extremely mobile and the 76mm gun was AWESOME. I remember I grinded 55K exp in 3 days from the M5 Stuart because I really wanted it so bad. Good times.
Merry Christmas Quicky and fans. I remember loving this tank till just before they took it out. The new terrain and limited physics made it super hard to control at the speeds it was going. The one this from watching this I wish they would bring back were the great minimaps. The mm now has me scratching my head wondering what is where. Sometimes with the little terrain changes and the mm so hard to read for me I fill like I don't know the map as well as I should.

Remember when the classes were rock-paper-scissors balanced.
Like all things should be

The game has not been the same without the ability to taunt the other team.

Now it is absolutely obsolete (and it is still my favorite tank). From 2016/17 it started to exist again overpowered (premium) vehicles and the game went fast back in the old "unbalanced situation". Now there is premium equipment....lol
@@altagerfigaro_ex1ita473 Ya you make fair points I guess I would have to go back and play it again to really remember how it was...Maybe what I should have said was it was the period of WOT that I enjoyed the most,I stopped playing about 6 months ago because the game is just broken at mid tiers and playing tier 10 all the time gets old..cheers :)
You did the right choice to stop playing wot 6 months ago.... Last monts were really embarrassing in wot... There are a lot of thing that i can say but I will say only one: now the IS-3A is a tier 8 premium tank with pretty the same characteristics as the standard IS-3 BUT with an autoreloader. So you can smash 3x (390 dmg) shots in just 6 seconds and later you can decide to fire every shot one by one (in a faster reloading time than the standard IS-3) without reload the entire magazine. And dulcis in fundum: the only way to have this tank is to find it in premium (RANDOM) loot boxes: so you can get it for 6€ or you can spend even more than 200€ without finding it
I remember those days, I started in around May/ June 2012.
hello QB merry Christmas and thank you for all you do!
this is sooo nostalgic for me … I used to suck back then, whereas now i'm above average, yet i'd love to go back for a while to re-experience those golden days :)
Damn, I'd love to play WoT as it was back in 8.6, it was such a great game that day. Really sad what they did with it. Not even the recently proposed changes to WoT will make it great again. (unless they nerf OP shit premium tanks and massively nerf prem rounds)
But Frontline
They are never going to nerf them. SerB is more likely to run out on stage ass naked and start smoking meth first.
Favourite thing back then with a scout was killing a TD like the jagdtiger by hugging its side, especially before they could move you by pushing.
Great video! Keep up the great work, Merry Christmas!
If i remember correctly, having T-50-2 or Chaffee was very often the mark of elite tanker in those days. You needed double much XP (maybe 60k or more) to research them on tier V, so less people were researching them. But the good T-50-2 scout was part of the succesful game, because tanks had lower vierange.
Back then i had fun playing it... xd
Hello Quicky and merry Christmas to you and your family :) I really appreciate that you find the motivation to provide us with high quality content for such a long period of time :)
Quicky how bout you take us down memory lane on some old type 59 battles before it was ever nerfed. Ps, how much longer are the Christmas boxes going to be on sale for.
I remember when you used to have to use a text command to see the server crosshair and how it was literally possible to have your visual turret turn 180 degrees in the opposite direction of where the servers thought your turret was aiming. That's probably why that T25/2 fired when he did.
That KV-1s was absolutely broken back in the day. Could 2 to 3 shot equal tiered tanks, had great armor and was pretty mobile. I do not miss that ridiculousness at all but I would take that overpowered tank any day of the week over what WoT has become now. All the loot boxes, over powered premium tanks, over buffed armor and the horrible match making has ruined this game.
Best thing about the KV-1S was that when a Tiger II proxy spotted you around corner he immediately reversed and got scared of that 122mm gun. Its pretty OP when a 2 tiers higher heavy just does not want to trade with a tier VI tank and rather reverses lol
I like how you mentioned lootboxes firstly as if it's a problem in any shape or form.
@@shmekelfreckles8157 lootboxes are not only a problem in WoT, but in the entire gaming industry. That cancer needs to be cleaned, same with microtransactions. Keep in mind that wen you buy a lootbox in a game, you are literally throwing your money at a glorified gambling system created to fuck you in your ass. Don't buy lootboxes, don't do it on WoT, or any other game.
@@3men219 Fixing WoT is EZ. Get rid of Loot boxes; Improve MM; Use ranking system for MM; Nerf arty, limit 1 per battle; Bring back all chat; Nerf premium tanks(improve economy for them so they still earn good money but are not dangerous to the normal tanks so much); Nerf japanese heavies or even delete them; make tank classes more useful, being super heavy tank in current state of the game is pretty much useless.
@@vanjamenadzer That is a pretty long list for an "easy" fix
The KV-1s with the 122mm is still a tier VI soviet heavy in the mobile version, ‘WoT Blitz’. It is still terrifying, especially in a platoon.
Bring back allchat!
I somehow got a steal wall medal with that beast (1500 games played with that tank)
No one will ever see this
Seen
Holy crap, I totally remember this. I totally remember looking down a barrel of a KV-2 on himmelsdorf because he suddenly appeared without me knowing lol. Scary thinking you spot a tank but they appear on your screen late to where they're already aiming at you....
Wargaming up to their antics again putting in OP t5 premiums like this monstrosity
You forgot to mention that tanks used to move in 'teleports' back then, making it even harder to hit fast stuff on the move.

guy lortie you too!
WRT what you said about Bölter's Medal: I joined WoT in very early 2013 (16th Jan to be exact) and by that time the medal was gone - I clearly remember my struggles to get my first Radley-Walters as some sort of milestone achievement and know that Bölter's was never in my grasp as it was gone before I started playing.
Got a Bölter in april 2012 in my ARL 44 (ua-cam.com/video/G5vX0jUznKM/v-deo.html). There were still tier 5 KV with 107 and 152 mm guns, tier 5 Pz IV S, and tier 6 KV 3 (KV 1S was not yet seen as "the" OP heavy tank in tier 6).
“When my computer was so bad”... im still on 20 fps over here
Thinking back, just started playing this game one month before that replay came into existence. Didn't get far enough for the T-50-2 before it was removed though and still managed to become a passionate light tanker to this day.
What I particularily like about that video is, that it is showing how awful that game actually was. And yet it seems like most of the community are complaining about WoT not being like it used to be. OP tanks? Supposed pay to win mechanics? Bad match making? The nostalgic filter at its best. Tanks man, and happy holidays.
Back when I started WoT, the T-50-2 was actually my first objective and I had some very fun games with it before it was removed. Now, the Chaffee is the only one left of the elite trio that hasn't been nerfed too badly.
Tbh I love the graphics. Not so much the tanks, but the environment. I just love old school graphics, kinda like mowas: 2
This used to be my favourite tank for a very long time, playing with this against Tier 10s was the funniest thing ever. I clearly remember bouncing a shell of a T110E3 once with the gun mantlet :D
We need more freetoplay games from this man
They just gave this tank out recently on pc.
It’s a fun time
Oh I remember plenty of times getting shot up by a good player on a faster computer in lower tier games. They would zip around a corner put around into me then be all the way back into the corner before my system would even ping or let me see them! It was mind boggling and quit maddening, Made me buy a whole new set to just to play this game rofl!
Ah, the old days. I actually have replays from way back in 2012, seen this game change a lot.
I remember an even older battle on that map, in 2012 or 2013 I think. There were more bushes just off the far NE curving road from the North cap to the town and I'd hidden in one with my Marder 2. It was before proximity spotting was in World of Tanks and an enemy literally just drove right past my TD in the bush without seeing me. :)
Merry Christmas from Alberta, Canada where our motto is “ITS FUCKIN’ COLD!”
Ah, the good old days...Watching this video i remembered Stalingrad and Kharkov, the only two maps that had their unique music intro back in the day. Its a pity WG has not released them in 1.0
It fills me of nostalgia when I hear those old cannon fire sounds
You make an IMPORTANT mistake at 1:18. Light tanks were - indeed - considered as having a +1MM. However, the 'old' tier 5 tanks - chaffee, VK2801, T-50-2 - were matched as a tier 8 tank, being able to see tier 10 frequently. The only thing of the same tier they could see was artillery, as those tiers were only getting up to tier 8, and other light tanks.
Well, it was a video of a T-50-2 that made me start to play this game back in 2014.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane......Merry Christmas y'all
Remember the old Chaffee? Tier 5 that went up against tier 10’s? Love that little tank
i still remember my chaffee game, in a tier 10 match. (highest XP i ever got in it.) ran out of ammo on a T100, good times and chafee gun was monstrous at that time
Back in my day, T18 was a tier 2 tank destroyer, KV-1S was a tier 6 tank and Province was still a map.
I started playing world of tanks in 2013 and seeing this makes me miss the old gun sounds... Felt more powerful when shooting a 122mm and having that sweet beefy sound, now it sounds more like an airsoft gun to me..
I had 1500+ games in this thing -- it was so insane. I actually got a Steel Wall in it fighting against Tier IXs (one time only) as enemy shells hit at weird angles and ricocheted off as I zigged and zagged along ridges as I ran away (no physics to worry about then).
I remember getting the kv-1S. Had about 1k games in that tank before being removed and replaced.
Ah the days when tanks like the KV and this (the original) were in the game, nothing can replace those memories.
I just started playing again last week and I've been having a ball, but THIS is the wot I remember.
Thanks for this video Quacky, I really wondered how the oldschool T-50-2 was like!
i remember my second tier 5 being a chafee and having to look up "chafee vs maus" because that was a real concern-- though king tiger were more often.
Before i had the FCM50t i acutally used KV1S for making credits while derping 390 alpha into Tiger IIs and T34s. It acutally worked pretty good as a credit maker.
I miss the old Chaffee with the T37's turret. It was extremely mobile and the 76mm gun was AWESOME. I remember I grinded 55K exp in 3 days from the M5 Stuart because I really wanted it so bad. Good times.
Back in the day Pascucci's medal was for *three* arty kills. It got shortened to 2 back in like 9.7 or so.
Merry Christmas Quicky and fans. I remember loving this tank till just before they took it out. The new terrain and limited physics made it super hard to control at the speeds it was going. The one this from watching this I wish they would bring back were the great minimaps. The mm now has me scratching my head wondering what is where. Sometimes with the little terrain changes and the mm so hard to read for me I fill like I don't know the map as well as I should.
Oh the memories.. I remember how frustrating it was to snipe at t50-2 and hit the tracks with no damage done.
fancy graphics don't make the game better RIP WOT
