Obviously the mobility of the ZA-35 is a nice upgrade over it's counterparts, however the even nicer upgrade is the addition of IRST. Being able to zoom around with your giant radar folded down and still lock onto and eliminate aircraft is great, really catches them off guard!

I used to live where there wasnt ever any snow. I only saw snow for the first time when i was 14. When i turned 28 it finally snowed for more than one day and I had it collect on the ground. I made my first snowman....at 28. I LOVE IT. even if the driving is hard and the idiots come out. I enjoy it.
To fix the bombing/pancaking issues you had with the buccaneer I would seriously recommend flying it fast at low level instead of dive-bombing - the plane is designed with extreme low-level attack in mind, so it should hopefully work in the role a bit better
Odd - "Cause I play video games, I can't see a thing" Also Odd, staring at a pixel on the screen, "OH thats an F14" where I'm staring at the same spec trying to figure out if its dirt on my screen or not
DUDE I WAS THE SHILKA. I ACTUALLY KILLED THE GREAT ODDBAWZ?! also when you lost your ammo in the first match, second life? I actually ammo racked you with the t55amd but it just destroyed it and didn't give me a kill. I was so gutted. Cheers for this memory tho bawz!
11:19 😶🌫Even back in 2001, you could choose a map in Return to Castle Wolfenstein. You could set up a server with your own map rotation. This is one of the things that bothers me most about WT is not being able to choose a map or map rotation. And that map banning/dislike feature is a joke. It seems whatever I choose there is what I get the most!
Hey Odd do you remember when south Africa was teased and they had a SAM version of this thing? It had like 2-4 launchers. They took it out for some reason and I wondered if you knew why?
@@richhomiefire9787 Gaijin adds plenty of paper tanks, when they feel like the German or Soviet trees need an additional pointless thing. In the same manner they add paper ships and paper planes.
That lag/packet loss thing has been happening with me quite a bit lately too. As you said, not saying that there's any PL but everything is behaving as if there is some. Makes things a bit tricky
I love it when you blow things up and create carnage. When you get in a tank or aircraft and wander around like a lost dog it gets boring. Just get in a fast God tier vehicle, flank, and destroy the enemy team. It is what your amazing at!!!
imo they should make a south african tech tree, not finland or some other random country with 97% borrowed vehicles, my country has a lot of unique and independently made vehicles and they're extremely good for being 1980s-1990s era, such as the rooivalk heli, or the rooikat, but i would feel so bad for the british tech tree basically becoming unplayable
I rarely play the upper tiers. It just doesn't look like much fun to me. The fact that I'm a mediocre player at best doesn't help, but this video just reaffirms my feelings toward top tier.
The ZA is what every Falcon dreams of being when it grows up ... That or the Swedish Marksman. Also, for some reason, when the radar dish is stowed, the turret reminds me of the Alien queen's head :P
Love the lineup videos! It's cool to see a couple of vehicles/a full lineup. That being said, I'd love to see a lineup of the worst low-tier vehicles you can think of
@@errornamenotfound2513 I'd say they are roughly equivalent. You trade the APDS belts, smoke grenades, as well as the ability to carry any amount of backup ammo, for speed and engine smoke. They are equally good at killing aircraft, but the Gepard can destroy heavier ground targets, while the ZA-35 is better at killing lighter ground targets since it can get into positions faster.
You can aim the bullpups with the lower part of the reticule, its very accurate. Also scimitar has around the same dry thrust as the F-4 Phantom. Nothing else climbs like it in it's tier.
@@gruminator1 ok it'll be a bit hard to explain without a screen shot but, on my vid here ua-cam.com/video/po6_03JQ8NM/v-deo.html if you pause right at that time [8 mins 27sec] you can see I launch a missile predicting the enemy will be at the lower part of the cross on my reticule by the time the missile arrives. Basically, using the upper tip of the lower part of the cross on the reticule you can aim where the missile will hit. I do it this way because it means I can immediately change direction if needed to avoid AA .etc, I don't have to manually guide the missile in. Hope that helps and I hope youtube leaves the link I put to show what I mean.
I've been having that render issue also. I will be looking at a tank probably 250 meters away and then they will disappear, then all of the sudden I get killed by them.
i remember back in the day you could actually change some setting in the ini to get better rendering but now EAC wont allow you to do anything anymore.
That freaky looking it’s a Gepard on concept 3 Chassis oddbaws I have a challenge for you try to get 10 kills with m22 Saphei at 7.0 put bushes everywhere on m22 while doing the challenge
Day 8 of proposing the challange I came up with to Odd: The cxhallenge is called "Basket Bomb": Your goal is to acuurately drop a bomb into any open top tanks' turret basket (e.g. M10 / M18 / the big german td's / the german AA's etc.)! Extra points if you use a very low-tier aircraft like a biplane, for the funnies. I think that would be extremely fun and it would make me so happy if you gave it a try
Probably a good chance to win the GE for submitted videos if you could pull it off. I like the idea, you should def try and see if you can get some free GE.
Dive bomber would probably be easiest just in terms of attack angle and aim. Sterling would be easiest because you just huck 27 500lbs (250s?) at them and pray.
Wish we could trade locations. I know everyone says “you wouldn’t like snow if you had to deal with it everyday, but i hate sweating. I’d take snow over any weather.
@@chrisstopher2277 I love my visits to Colorado. Used to go snowboarding every spring break. Down here in south Texas, we get lucky if we have more than a couple days below freezing
Hey Odd, this was a perfect video for me as a proper Britbong I don't suppose you'd ever do a dedicated video on the Buccaneer S.1? I've got a series of interesting historical skins for it on WT Live and would love to see them in action!
hey odd, you should hop in an ASU-57 and put the basic bushes on the front and snipe, it’s so much fun because no one can see where you are hehehehe (do this with spookston for extra points, you guys are so much fun to watch together) and thank you for the epic video 😎😎
I have noticed that at this br the games are always very 1-sided. Not because 1 team dominates but because half the other team just gives up or leaves after 1 death. It’s so annoying.
I love snow its a great thing about owning a land rover, just go around rescuing people its great fun 😂 Pulling people out us fun and can be funny watching cars and motorbikes slide around, whilst 4x4 drivers laugh 😂 sadly sold the landy after 220k miles so I cant do it anymore
Somehow the sidam 25 is the same tier as this aa. Proves how much gajin hates italy. Edit: You said the sidam has high velocity guns. It actually has very low velocity guns capped at 3 km. But it has 60 apds rounds with high velocity if that was what you were talking about.

Yeah pretty much, SA pretty much carries the UK Ground Tech Tree to being fun, despite it having way less vehicles than actual UK vehicles

That speed brake on the Buccaneer took me by complete surprise....
Me too, holy shit the size of it
fun fact the yak 38 does not get flares but the S24 rockets actually work quite well for that

SA tanks are nuts, yesterday ive had 9 kills with sarc fully uptiered
Pretty sure the A-4E player was using guided bombs that's why he was climbing, just freaking use AGMs and be useful for once...

Great video 👍
Unfortunately, it pretty much sums up why I'll never bother this and higher tiers.

damn, those pylons on the scimitar is frikking HUUUUGE!
may be having a stroke but I remember reading they changed render distance of tanks to 4km unless you're in a scope
Yes, but can we add even BIGGER wheeled vehicles with moving spinny bits on top?
Happy new year mate. I hope you recover quickly from this thing. Take care!
2:46 *COULD* get on the marketplace until oddbawz did a video on it and I’m sure now what’s left costs a fortune 😜
Just realized that the World of Tanks premium garage is the same as that garage
Could you do a video on the M163?
Thankful that I bought the event buccaneer cheap before this oddbaws video 😂
If you havnt tried it yet, driving on the new ice actually feels realistic. Just dont try it on Stalingrad.
I would have had the sea vixen in the line up as well.
Gajin likes to stay behind, with the map picking and SBMM. Both would bring in players.
This thing really needs some ammo protection.
@24:10 Well, I mean it does kinda look like a submarine.... hehehe
It looks so easy to just missile enemies from above for a free kill.
Odd you should try the Matilda III, the "russian Matilda"
"...Annnd on today's video, Odd's going to show you how Gaijin allows you to turn your jet into a submarine..." 🤣🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤣...
Wait you aren’t using the Falcon, and Cheiftan Marksman as well? I thought that’d be the overpowered lineup
