I owe all the information to the Hell Let Loose tank bible www.theline.gg/tankbible/#1

The Tiger breaking down before it reaches C rank is hysterical

Playing in a tank crew was the best gaming experience I have had so far in years

Playing this game with like 14 fps, tanks are my only option to play. It could be fun or could be extremely boring depends on your crew tbh

The Pacific Fighters / IL2 music brought back some memories.

The Jumbo was an Assault Tank so it makes sense it doesnt excell in tank-to-tank combat but is very good in infantry support

Like a week ago I was playing HLL and I was a medic and my squad was trying to protect a tank so we can have support on the objective. Long story short turns out the objective was captured and enemies started spawning there and we were all killed instantly

I will never be able to take this game seriously as long as a Stuart can take a direct hit at 30 meters from an 88 and still keep going

Each tank is good on it’s own until you get the Free weekend guy or “I just bought it an hour ago” guy.

Sherman 75 mm can do damage through the front of a Tiger if the Sherman is close enough in real life, though its not as efficient as just using a 76

They need to give the Shermans their stabilizers

Some tanks like the tiger or 75 jumbo is just done dirty in this game, for instance the jumbo was specifically created because it could deflect the German long barreled 88 that the tiger uses, and yet in this game? Nah

GuP soundtrack on the background, nice.

Me and two buddies have been exclusively tanking for the last month or so and you really learn to appreciate the strengths of the individual tanks and infantry who care enough to build nodes and support you. Had a Foy game last night where nobody wanted to build nodes and the Germans had three Panthers on the field by the end. US never got a heavy deployed in a 50 minute game. You can guess what the result was.

My first experience as a Squad Lead was today as a tank commander. Had a great mentor to help me out.

the tiger may not be good but its so goddam fun

I found you on rising storm Vietnam two steam pages ages ago good to see your still uploading

loved playing the games together especially in some of the clips! keep up the good work

Always love a good tier list video

I adore playing the Stuart. I always get stuck driving because nobody wants what is arguably the most responsible role in the tank. They either want the satisfying gunner role or the delegating spotter role. The driver in most circumstances is the one keeping the tank out of danger, finding the best angles and generally keeping everyone alive, the driver never gets to relax. The Stuart is a dream to drive, it is a comfortable drive, I love zipping across the map to deliver armoured support. Flanking heavies, breathing down the necks of enemy spawns and generally being the biggest pain in the arse and the best bang for the commander's buck, if you even need to replace the damn thing before it spawns in on it's own.

throw back to a couple days ago I was able to commanded the funniest crew. We became a tank ace in a single life and stayed in the same Panther the entire game.

I had one game recorded where we had 3 panthers, a Panzer IV and a recon tank in one game. I was one of the Panther The enemy basically had no more tank crews cause they had enough getting blown up. It was us versus an army of Anti Tank rocket guys. Possibly one of the best game I ever had. Once a rocket flies by. I just reverse to face that direction and 4-5 more rockets goes towards the front of the panther and bounces. Same on Panzer IV. The front of that tank bounces rockets all day.

Tips to make you're videos stand out: Timestamps and add what tank is on what team clearly when you first mention them

20:38 WAW Flashbacks Reznov yelling for 100th time: YOU JUST GRAZED HIM!!!

always loved getting to fight in tanks, ive struggled when they made them all less maneuverable

Nice touch of the WAW music at the end

7:40 HOLY CRAP is that the music from IL2 Sturmovik??? You triggered a childhood memory my friend haha

Stuart, when used properly, is the 2nd best tank in the game. Good list!

They need to add the Tiger II, Pershing, and IS2 but make it cost a lot of fuel and maybe only 1 per team, per match.

The Il2 music sent me back real quick ❤

Bro the IL-2 music was so nostalgic

actually i've seen a Panzer II killing the Stuart couple times because the Stuart is ricocheting off the front and the Luchs just smashing 60 rounds in his front. the best part is when u just stand beside and look at them, beautiful

Great HLL vid mate!!🫡🫡

had a game in the British light tank were I got around 40 to 60 kills by watching the Bridge and moving to different positions so it was harder for them to kill us, even at one point we pretended to be dead or abandoned and whenever I got the chance to kill someone I did.

Great video

I like the T-70 light the most only because it kicks the ass of and Stuart viewing port

as a battlefield v player i can say that was really informative

All tanks S tier when used right. Shame they're never used right often. I recall one match as Germany my friends and I were in a Panzer 4 and we actually had to return to get more ammo, we and the Tiger were both doing amazingly hanging back to punish anyone popping their heads up sadly though in pushing our infantry does what they do best and run off and die stupidly leaving our tank vulnerable.

Recon vehicle gameplay, shows competent enemy tank crews, Light tanks shows single man tank crews. I think the 75 jumbo and Tiger should be given the ability to destroy fortifications with a certian number of HE, at least then they would have some viability, and it would make sense with the 75 having smoke.

The Tigers survivability wasn't solely based on its armor thickness. The Tiger often outranged its enemies, which is where the weak Sherman 75 myth came from. It didn't have the same range to engage the tiger. More over many games overstate the accuracy of these tank guns. It was almost unheard of to aim at a specific "weak point" again particularly at the ranges these battles occurred. When getting into closer range battles in and around towns and cities it made engaging Tigers and king tigers much easier for those reasons. for example Tiger 131 was "knocked out" by the fabled "tiger shot tarp" gun mantlet design you mentioned in the video. However it served a hail of AT fire for an extended period of time.

That panther WWE meme was accurate af

I remember when the Tiger was the apex predator of Hell Let Loose.

-Had the best games in the Luchs. Its really a hit or miss. -75 Jumbo should respawn automaticly after 10ish minutes and also not at the start of the game. -Recon tanks are the most fun to use. The russian one is for what ever reason the worst recon. I hate it. -Panther...

I would honestly hope that they add in TDs at one point bc it would be funny to actually use a Ferdinand. One can hope

At first I am very exited for the africa corps, but i hope so much, that they will bring in the pacific war. Nice video.

Well, the Panther is a medium tank, forcibly up armored by the man himself. A fun (not balanced) way they could make the Tiger better is to make its gun 1 shot everything if it penetrates, since out of all of the tanks it is the only one equiped with an actual "heavy tank gun" and not a gun used by medium tanks (tiny argument for 85mm, but the soviets used solid shot soo uh nuh uh). This should also mean that if the pershing or IS-2 or Tiger II or whatever other heavy tanks with actual heavy tank guns are added they'd have the same ability. They could also add tank destroyers where they could make differences between nations, for example since germany (by my suggestion/idea) has a heavy tank 1 hitting gun the americans should get something like the jackson and the soviets like an SU-122, where the SU-122 has heavy tank armor but if penetrated is 1 shot by all heavy tank guns, to not make it too strong, and the jackson would be faster yk medium tank speed, but would only have medium tank armor, or slightly worse, the germans on the other hand could get the stuig which would be the medium tank version of a 1 tapping machine, capable of 1 shotting a medium for the price of a medium, but also once again itself being weaker and having lesser-ish armor aswell. This would be a good point to mention that i dont play the game nor do I own it, just the balancing spiked an interest to propose a potential option for the Tiger to be comparable (or just better lol) than the panther and some other balancing ideas around that.

Note for the new tankers, you can absolutely use recons to wipe tanks on the enemy team. BUT you need to hold your shot until your within 10 meters and on their ass. You want to ass ride them as they turn, they will never be able to get you.

JUMBO 75. It is classified as an “assault tank”, basically an up-armored medium that’s meant to survive heavy tank shots. That’s it. That’s it’s one purpose. Survive heavy tank shots as a medium.

I highly agree with the stuart. There is nothing better than bullying tigers and panthers with the green small boi

I was in a duo Stuart as we had been having a hard time with Sherman’s (lost 3 to a panther) and we decide to just fuck it and run into the back lines. We come across the back end of a tiger and put two AP right into the back of it. Boom.

One time I got into a head on tank duel with another medium tank. Both of our dumbasses were firing HE rounds at one another for like 2 minutes. Unfortunately, the enemy tank realized our mistake just a moment sooner than I did and won the face off.

Very good video! Quick correction though, the tiger was front penned by normal 75mm shermans on multiple occasions (not frequent but possible).

Last night got a 30 kill streak with the Stuart and I only used the drivers .50😂

Im hyped for the Brits. Ive got an idea for tanks? For the heavies, the churchill MK.III as with that 6 pounder with APDS, it could mess up heavies. Cromwell for medium. Tetrarch for light and daimler for armoured car. One possible extra is the Comet. It could act similar to the Panther. Fast, very good gun and heavy armour. I was considered a "Heavy Cruiser" because for some weird reason the British called Mediums cruisers

lol i just wanna know one thing about 6 months ago me and cousin jumped into a M3 stuart light tank with the 37mm cannon, as Driver i maneuvered behind a german Panzer III L and my cousin opened fire at a range of 100 meters, putting 37mm cannon shells into the back of its turret and engine bay, it did absolutely nothing after eating around 8 shells to armor weak spots, then it turned around and one shotted us, pretty sure had been playing any other tank game like war thunder that III L should of been as good as dead.

Just went on a 156 player kill streak in the heavy panther

HLL looks really nice and good overall, but the tank combat systems look to be really simplified (I have never played the game so please tell me if I'm misunderstanding something here). For example, a puma should be more than capable of penetrating the side of a sherman, and a shot to the engine of the sherman (like at 1:15) should knock the engine offline, and stop them from turning around.

I like all the light tanks because I can run it better as a solo then I can in a trio.

Smoke in the sherman and jumbo is way to underated in battles. Two tanks 1 smoke 1 kills

Finally , My favourite section , TANKS !!!

Holy shit il 2 1946 music, big w

Puma is the best vehicle hands down I've two manned and three manned pumas and just ruined the enemy team by running around their back lines destroying heavy tanks and garrisons

Don’t want the jumbo 75 to get replaced. They should just add the other tank suggestions without replacing it. The jumbos played a big role in real life and I think it’s pretty fun to roll in one every now and then.

No wonder why I keep getting requests to get 76 jumbo and Panther when playing as the commander

I never played HLL, only watched a couple of videos but doesn't the Tiger have better side armor than the Panther? I didn't hear you talk about it so it's not a thing in this game perhaps? Then I think it could be a nice feature to balance the Tiger and Panther.

THE 75 SHERMAN IS S TIER ITS GODLY ALL YOU NEED IS 5 FRIENDLY TANKS SQUADS AND 1 ENEMY ONE AND YOU'RE GOLDEN

0:53 The il2-1946 music🫦🫦🫦

Heard you say it at least three times so I know it's not a mistake but a learned phrase so it is Disrupt. Dis-Rupt. There's no extra 'T' thrown in there (heard @ 0:18 and 1:51 for context). I'm Aussie too so I know how bad the schooling system is so this is just a day to learn the word the correct way! Great video and I only wish there were more vehicles in HLL. Any variety to the gameplay is a benefit.

Its funny that Tiger and Panther suppose to be the same size and Panther is slightly lighter. And Panther is designated as Medium Tank with 80mm of frontal armor. Has great Frontal armor and questionable side armor.

Just saw this video, a year after publication. What about a new one? Some tanks have had buffs and so on. Also the British are in the game now!

The jumbo's role had an offical name it was "Assault tank" because the american supply did not see a need for a larger gun since in the actual war the American tank crews encountered Tigers 3 times in Europe there was not a real need for a larger gun.

As an anti armor infantry its pretty east to get around tanks no matter the tank it just matters if you are fear them

dude the sherman from fury it's a sherman easy 8 the one on hell let loose is the new jumbo that finally recive the long awaited 76 mm gun that came in 1945 along with the easy 8 but i 'd really like if the devs could ad the m26 pershing in the game that tank it's 10 times better than the jumbo 75, FYI the jumbo 76 doesn't have a muzzle brake in the end of the barril.

Fun fact: the M79 AP is just a solid round, no explosive filler or whatever, its uncapped, not even have penetration cap or ballistic cap, the M61 APCBC, armor piercing capped ballistic capped, have both of those plus HE filler with more penetration, Luchs never used the 20mm KwK 30, it used the 20mm KwK 38 which had almost double the fire rate and they had something called PzGr. 40 HVAP rounds with around 50-ish mm of penetration, API it shots are barely around 38mm of penetration, the 50mm gun on the Sd.Kfz 234/2 Puma fires the PzGr. 39 APC round, its a penetration capped APHE round around 100mm of penetration, maybe a bit less The point i try to make is while HLL is a very good game, realistic and all, its tank combat sucks, oh how much it does, Enlisted, while not quite like HLL, got the tank combat miles better. I for one would try to make a mix between Red Orchestra 2's quality features like the interior of the tank + Enlisted's tanking mechanics. Ah, just ignore my ranting, its just my honest opinion to be fair

I now use Stuart more than 76, so much better at f'ing up infantry and will fuc up a panther easily with patience.

Still can’t believe there’s no Britain in the game. I kinda get japan not being there since they would have to add island maps and stuff. Britain though was in the war from the start with so many iconic vehicles to add to this game and weapons. Really hope to see them eventually. I also hope for japan just bc Germans being only axis kinda sucks.

Huh.The difference between the hll puma and the warthunder puma is astonishing

Panther my beloved❤

now to add the Firefly and Cromwell.

No panzer 3? Sad engine noises

Haven't watched it yet but if the panther is not the best I am leaving. Fastest reload when it comes to heavies, good height, suspension is the best right after tiger and its fast

Wish downshifting didn’t screw the whole driving pocess up. Legit down shifted in the panther, and I could not get faster. Driving legit is hard af.

I've 1600 hrs on HLL. Since the last update, whenever I fire my mg as the driver in all tanks, the tank jumps into neutral gear, meaning I can't move and shoot at the same time. Any ideas how to solve this, guys?

Wait, can the Luchs really not kill a heavy tank from behind? I once took an M4 Sherman down with a full mag and a partial bit of another one...

did just the engine from the tiger broke on its way to the list?

I couldn’t destroy puma with american 75… guy was parked behind a house and I was hitting his fender at an angle and couldn’t even damage it 😂

I hear the Panzer Lied in the background of Panzer 4 😍

Panther > Tiger pog good list :)

I wish the IS-1 got it's 122mm gun to counter it's weak armor and mobility, that'd be funny i think.

The 75 M4 should have better anti infantry capabilities, as its HE shell was more effective than even that of the 90mm M3 gun.

Tbh nowadays anytime I see a hame with the soviets it’s always “T-34-85” I’ve never seen anyone give the KV series any love.

bro forgot what an heavy infantry tank is fair tho .💀💀

11:58 And on that point i can't give a thumps up anymore. I had no idea people still believes that myth.

So you can defuse a satchel. Good to know

In what software do you create your videos?

Well i think the jumbo opinion here kinda depends, i played with a very experienced sweden and we cleared the entire army and their garrisons alone because our team sucked and we tanked so many rockets and a panther head on.

i want Vichy France and Italy added with the commonwealth update with north african maps, so we can really have a world war, not just everybody vs the germans in europe like every other ww2 game

smoke rounds are underrated

Fun fact the panther isn't the immortal god tank it may seem as there is a spot on its front where the 75 can rip through like butter this spot being the turret the panthers turret will not stop the 75 unless you hit the mantle so if you hit the turret not no the mantle you can frontal pen the panther with a sherman 75 and for this reason I usely like the tiger more despite no one shooting the spot instead the reaction most players give to a panther is run away

You know what surprises me is is that you are not allowed to use the 105 jumbo
