      hey oddbawz i was wondering if you were aware about the modification research bug in air RB that has been around for 2+years and goes something like this.
      join a game and leave before the match ends.
      You then start another match, which ends BEFORE match 1 ends, and you successfully research the module "new enginge". You can then select a new module to research.
      Now however, match 1 STILL contributes ONLY to the already researched module "new engine", effectively giving you 0 XP, as the progress is NOT transferred to the newly selected module.

      12th time asking you to play 8.7 Sweden, the gist of it is that you get constant downtiers to 7.7, you face German teammates more often than not, and you will see a lot of king tigers. Also include the Saab 105 g. It’s stupidly op with a full bomb load. T55M, strv103c, strv104, ikv-91-105, veak40, and rush with the itpsv90. IT IS STUPID FUN.🤩

    The tank that actually brought top tier to its knees is the Str 122+ and Leopard2A7. Seriously it is crazy how strong Germany and Sweden are now, a team with Germany and Sweden on the same side is has almost 90% chance to win, even more so if the other side has US.

    • @themilkman8554

      Dude yes. The fact that side shots sometimes only kill 1 crew member or even sometimes ZERO damage is unplayable. STRV and 2A7V take anywhere from 2-5 shots to fully kill with pixel sized 1 shot kill shot areas from the front. Spall liners NEED to be removed from all or added to all 11.7 tanks to slow down the gameplay or balance it out. It's ridiculous.

      And yet, german mains will endlessly cry about the so called "russian bias" and "chinese bias" while driving the best damn tank in the whole game. I would challenge them to try the Soviet tanks a bit and see them swear about the horrible gun depression, the slow reload and the turtle level reverse speed that we have to deal with during the whole tree. In addition, everything after the T-34 has slow turrets and slow up and down gun movement. Russian bias has just been a meme or a coping mechanism for quite a while now.

      True. If it were a T-80 variant it wouldn't be that bad, but because it's a slightly better T-72B3M it keeps the 22 round autoloader and 7-ish second reload instead of the 6-ish on T-80 tanks.

      yeah, I was gonna say this. Apparently, it's news to people that tanks aren't invincible. Literally anything can be destroyed by almost anything else with a lucky shot or just the right circumstances.
      and don't get me wrong, I don't think the T90 is a great tank. But tactics and logistics are almost always the deciding thing on what makes a tank survive or not. Same as WT applies in real life: The best armor is just not getting hit in the first place.

      @@gaiofattos2 The point isn't that the BMP-2 is even really objectively better than a Bradley.
      It's that there's really no reason it couldn't - in theory -, do the same to an Abrams. And I say in theory, because on paper, there's really no reason a Bradley should've been able to destroy a T90, either. And the same thing has happened with a lot of vehicles, albeit rarely.
      Essentially, it's like saying Batman can beat anyone with prep time. In theory, sure. But in practise, pretty much any tank can be destroyed just given bad enough circumstances, or the right things being in the right place at the right time. Hence logistics and tactics.

      Even if 2 bmp catch the Abrams like the Bradles did to he the t-90m. The Abrams can always hit reverse gear and get out of the ambush.
      While i know that "many thing" can beat a Tank, its important to see how pathetic was the whole bradley vs t-90m thing was, they didn't have tow missiles or even apds to fire at the T-90m and they manage to get a mission kill on it.

Two of those nukes have been with this tank. I hope you have fun with it. For the Israelis
    takeout either the gal Batash or the merkava mark 2B both of these things are really good and I honestly could not decide between the two these two tanks are tied for my second favorite in the game. For the Israeli tanks, all I can say is that they’re quite similar to British vehicles in the sense that they might not be the fastest or the most well armored, but they do pack a serious punch.

    @williamludwick77 Рік тому +2

    One of the drawbacks to Top Tier is that there are no (or very few, not enough) large maps like 5+ km size maps. The main issue is that these tanks, IRL, are meant to be used at longer ranges (like 2-3 kms) for delivering shots and better survivability. The squares need to be like 0.75 - 1 km each, and yes while that will make for longer times to get to positions, it would make it more realistic in terms of how tanks are really to be used in modern warfare and less short-range or urban warefare (although there still needs to be this in rotation).
    Additionally, the optics need to be more realistic, where some of these tanks and shots in general, wouldn't be such "lasers". How often would breaches and guns take damage or be taken out IRL? Too often tanks seem to have way to strong of an ability to locate an enemy and fire a round into small areas like a driver port, when in reality it would rarely happen - or at least not that frequently.
    Now I know the goal of the game is to drive money and make gameplay "balanced" but more often than not, it feels like the outcome is decided before the game even starts. How oftern is the experience where you play one nation or another, and shoot against someone with little to no effect in one game? Then use the same vehichle in another game and completely roll over similar or same tanks?

    Hello Odd! I love your content, you are one of the reasons I started to play WT in 2023 december, soo far I have 87 hours in the game. May I ask you, or someone can explain me how the tickets works? Because okay, both teams start with 18000 tickets and lose tickets if points are captured by enemy, or your teammates are dying, but... how much we lose if for example the map is 3 capture points and all points are the enemies? What if they capture 1 point or 2? how does this work? If I cap a point, do the enemy instantly lose some tickets? every minute you lose a amount of points? (tickets/minute lost would be the right formula?) and how much tickets you lose for a light tank, or a heavy? the same? I think if you see this, this could be even a great youtube video, because I haven't found any good explanations on this topic, and for example me, who would try to play the game for winning, I would be interested in some situations, what would be the best for me to do. Love your stuff, used your code at the store, hope it helps. Might get into your Merch too, because it looks sick! I love youtuber merches :)

      It isn’t, all tanks are useful in combat as both a tool and a moral weapon. The T90M is just more vulnerable to being destroyed and worse at protecting its crew, so it gives less room for error. If you put a T90M in the hands of a competent crew and unit commander the T90M will do well, but Russia doesn’t have much of those

They have also shown themselves to be really good irl, this isn’t the first time they been in combat. After the T72’s not good combat record, the M1 abrams has seen the most combat and overall has done extremely well

      Avoid FPV’s and being alone would be more realistic since it litteraly took two bradleys just to take out the optics and turret ring forcing the crew out of the tank since they couldn’t perform operations, if the tank wasn’t alone tho it would have been a different story

    Wasn't there an order from Stalin that basically said any retreat was to be treated as treason and desertion? If that was signed into law and nobody bothered to repeal it after the fall of the Soviet Union, then the terrible reverse speed might simply be tank manufacturers complying with the law.
