That's why this game has become pay to win now

Come to console where this is still possible

You know the fact that you put, “(except for the Rhm Panzerwagen)” speaks volumes to me. Because that tank has been introduced over 5 years ago and WG, without apology, have left it in this sorry state every year since then, (uncompetitive) I just feel so sorry for newcomers, who love everything German tank related (as it is one of their most popular nations). They go through a very dark tunnel, but never find the light at the other end of it. Not to mention every German Light Tank from T6 and up.

the T-62A is still a very good tank, but most of the community got used to the hulldown good gundep meta so they just can't play with no gundep tanks decently

Everything comes to a end.

Indeed, the tier 10 was a huge letdown even before the nerfs compared to the tier 9.

M53/55 was the most terrifying arty The fact that it could just switch targets and not have to move the tracks meant that it could aim at moving targets quite reliably

@@Jim_n_the_wilds fun fact… the M53/55 also joined the likes of the FV304, M44, Lorraine 155 51 and the SU-8 in being mountain goating Arty. I found that the M44 was the best of the lot after the 304 ate a batch of mobility nerfs… but the M53/55 also made for a surprisingly effective battering ram… I had plenty of ram kills by using the front corner of my tracks to mitigate the self damage scoring kills on many mediums and heavies… sometimes multiples in a single match. That said, I personally love the T92… but a big part of that probably has to do the fact that my first T10 grind was the Object 261… and let me tell you, after grinding the Soviet 203s, every other vehicle’s gun traverse feels downright generous.

Just how many mediums, TDs, and heavies do you think the M53/55 is faster than?

@@larryselkirk426 Between heavies and mediums, it can outrun 70 of them from tiers 9 and 10.

I loved it and did great in it. It is definitely made entirely of fires and ammo racks, but it is simple to change your playstyle to mitigate those problems, at least it was for me and i am not the best by any means, lol.

T-62a, fv or 268?

@@blek3539 I’m assuming 268? Since the other dude said ammo racks.

Wrong. The day that wot started dying is when they started to introduce (and never nerf) tanks that were 'balanced' around gold rounds. being able to buy gold for silver.. fine, but you'd ultimate never really used it because it ws only needed for 2 tanks or so, now you need it for 80% tank because all that get played are those gold-balanced shitstorms of tanks.

@@skorpion7132 It was their way of causing a money-sink and it worked. People spend tons of silver on the rounds to the point where they are standard rounds and WG gets to keep people playing/grinding to make even more silver.... or people will just exchange gold for them or buy premium tanks to earn more. It has nothing to do with players having fun or what is good for the game, it is about what makes the most money and players playing.

Hello I am a newer player and I only paid money for the CS 52 LIS. I am only shooting gold ammo and i still made 3 mil+ in the past 2 days. So I dont really get why people complain about Gold Ammo. Even if I die early and only have about 1.5k dmg, i still make like 50k profit lmao

@@melugem because the money isnt the point, its the fact that people can afford to only shoot it and they are just straight up better but you can only afford it with premium tanks or account

@@allthingsmotorized1885 if u dont have 10 bucks for a month of premium idk bro. u can get a lot of t8 premium tanks for free easily

Tell me more

Yep, and now it and all arties and any tank that relied on HE are now utterly neutered, limpdicked shadows of their former selves that arent even worth playing anymore.

@@kelvisshandei before the SPG changes the t92 had the most DMG per shot.

the good old days

@@kelvisshandei T92 did 2250 damage before rework (still does 2250 on wot console)

you ever tried removed speed govs on your T62?

@@anthonyhowrard526 but don't that thing destroy ur engine for that ?

@@Tomoki_Robo If you have it on for a long period of time it'll damage your engine, though I've found my luck in the 62A to require a fire extinguisher over a premium consumable. Turbo/Rammer/Optics is my standard setup and it makes up for the originally pretty lackluster mobility.

yep, that was good WOT days. Now its just pay to win game.

I was scrolling the comments and thought that "hmm thats a familiar looking profile picture". Didn't expect to see you here.

I feel your pain brother 😔

My brother in pain...At least after last update i can't even run this game so the world seems much more colorful

Skill issue imo just quit

Yeah. Back in the day people who were good with that tank didn't try to hide it but rather they tried to maximize its view range and use it for active scouting driving around in the open and spotting tanks before they spotted it. Back in the day it used to be really good active scouting tank but required a lot of skill to be played well. And if you ended up in a situation where you had to engage the enemy, it did really well with its shots while zigzagging on the battle field at full speed. That's why the gun is so accurate.

yeah QB is way to critical of this tank. I do top3 by damage on my team consistently with this laser gun

@@test_nametest_surname1794 it's not a good tank realistically, but it's the kind of tank that can only be used by a player that is good with it and has the right equipment on it

I guess If someone got it back in the day from tech tree sure then you should do this, but If need to buy it for bonds and then use even more bonds to make it playable, then that is just stupid because there are just better tanks that dont require bonds to be playable

@@festusfive9157 yeah I only play it when I am in a mood for adventure. Don't expect to win or dominate just do my best in worst 😅

My fv215b gun was shaped like a banana - I'd just miss the whole tank, or hit & bounce, so was left with a bad heavy, that couldn't even do damage. Yes to getting ammo racked, set on fire, crew injuries to... My worst situation was meeting a t8 French scout head on in the open at close range, i was on full health, he nearly beat me as his 1st or 2nd shot ammo racked me.

Yeah, same for me.

Nobosy plays a t10 tank with 75% crew and no equipment, after the hundreds of games it takes to get to t10 you should have that much…

I agree, not the "worst" tank with pimped out crews and prem consumables

Who the hell plays t10 with 75% crew and no equipment?

Personal win rate and tanks win rate doesnt really tell a lot about how good or bad you are,I have 3 accounts,all free to play,I have the IS-3-II on all of them,on one of them I have 52% victories on the other 50 and the third one 43,I have around 200 battles with it on all accounts,it doesnt really say anything about how I play,its really about luck and mm

@@DV-1701 I have 65K battles and a 48% win rate and have got so much grief, been pushed into fire and tkd because `I am so bad` I played thousands of games not knowing anything about the game. played about 5k battles in tier 3tanks and had 50000 xp on one because I did not know about crew training. I play lights most of the time and I get told how bad iam. From August 2021 I am in the top 5k for spot dmg. I can get salty at other players, so if the camp base when top tier hvy, but I never ever talk about their stats. Also I have problems using a keyboard having only feeling in my little finger and down half my ring finger so using a keyboard can be a challenge. I know I should not get salty as I do not know who is on the other end. They could be a kid and or have mental health problems. Sorry for the essay lol but thought your comment was refreshing to see.

@@anthonyhowrard526 wow,the first few sentences perfectly described me,I had 178k experience on T-50-2 since I loved the tank but never knew about crew training,and yeah they are a lot of people who just complain about how other people play,and still after so many battles I am nothing but an average player

they are still good enough def playable

As much as I would like to see some love to the Cent AX it's not coming. I think it's on purpose like that. All other X meds got something special but AX is just this nothing all round medium tank.

They need got buff the fv215b It’s so underpowered How did WG miss this tank when buffing all the other tanks

@@luke_angelo don’t get me wrong I do love my AX, but man it’s getting crap compared to other mediums. It’s also such a big vehicle. If it was smaller it would probably be okay

I think the CentAX should get the premium BESH from the Cent 7/1, and the spaced armour on the turret cheeks that the Caernarfon AX gets. That would buff it in a way that is in-line with what is in the game already.

@@gregoryclark8217 this would be amazing. The 7/1 was by far more fun to play because of the Premium HESH. And that spaced armour idea is a good one

@@MeatTwizzler K-91 wasn't a thing back then. Obj 430 was the other tier 10 tank. (I was just talking about before the Obj 140 was buffed.)

@@MeatTwizzler All good.

Same, I will always have a fondness for that tank unrivaled by any other T10. Even if i know it’s been crept into near complete uselessness.

Quit in 2018, and this video pains me. Look how they massacred our boi.

I checked that out and to my surprise, there's a whole host of lights that are heavier than RHM Pzw, it only clocks in as the 11th heaviest if we disregard the unreleased T-44 ltwt and the comically rare Aufk.Pz. V. In T9 and 10, T-54 ltwt, WZ-132-1 and Ru 251 are heavier.

@@miskakopperoinen8408 qmgg

Isn’t WZ best ram scout tho?

@@miskakopperoinen8408 Yes, I did warn that there are heavier T9 scout tanks heh. Okay, I typed "is" but "are" would have been better worded. But if you get into an all tier 10 battle, then you know you're likely the heaviest scout in the battle.

@@aynersolderingworks7009 IIRC, I think it's tied to tier 10 WZ, but panzerwagon is faster. Note: I haven't played WoT for a few years, but I used to own & play every scout except for the French EBR & Russian scout.

not sure about the FV215B since it is quite weak overall compared to other heavies but agree with the T-62A, has the highest dpm of all russian meds at 3000 dpm

@@Hagurmert yeah so when I actually started the tech tree for the obj140, I bought the T62a instead haha

*premium

@@santenz8460 It's name is highlighted in blue and thus it's a collectible tank. The Chieftain on the other hand is highlighted in yellow, thus it's a premium...

don't regret anything in video gaming world. it's not worth the bad mood you gonna get, now or later everything will be changed even you. i am release player in wot and played the game for 3 years straight spent like hundreds or even a thousand to convert exp to buy crew etc. back in the days even garage slots were for money. no free in game goods no missions or events to save money. so i unlocked all the max tier tanks patch after patch they kept added new tanks. i quit wot when the Chinese tech tree were added. because i felt i beat the game and now they copy their old content (china are russian modified copies) in 2018 i came back and found out all my top tiers get power creeped to death. i laughed and said fair enough. no regret. long short if there is anything about a game I would ever regret about, it will be my time only. try to enjoy your tank. and make sure you play to have fun and not you Live to have a fun.

sounds like a you issue

FV does have good stats. Players forget that a spoon is not a fork and play it like a spoon. Ihave a blast sharpshooting enemies

He meant his team I think

He meant that his team is down 10 000

make the gun more like a leopard 1 situation. i think it would be fair because everything else of that tank is just trash yaknow

Maybe they could give it some sort of ridiculously good camo after firing stat, make it more hidden sniper than just a bad scout

@@edwardcardona717 so the tank has atlest SOME advantage? good and creative idea

You did indeed forget something. TVP T50/51 gets 2% extra camo at full field mods and at T5, has access to a field mod that gives 3% camo. Furthermore, camo skill scales with basic crew skill so if you use slotted standard vents, food and BIA, you get another ~2,3% of camo value. Switching slotted standard vents to bond vents gains you 0,3% more camo, using the vent directive gains another 0,3% camo. A fully tricked out TVP T50/51 without bond or reward equipment, exhaust or directives has a stationary camo value of 34,5%. With a 25% bush, that is 59,5%, not 52%. However, this specific tank has a decent argument for taking exhaust mod. It's an autoloader with 410m base VR and gets 3% extra from field mods. If you play with slotted standard vents, food and all vision-boosting skills (BIA, SA, recon) and with the vision slot empty, your VR is already 488m, 494m with bond vents. With slotted exhaust, your stationary camo increases to a neat 42,5% with moving camo of 35,9% TVP is an autoloader, so can't use a rammer. You will want vents anyway. VStab takes the slot that can't boost any equipment. 2nd slot doesn't have a pressing need for anything and can go for pretty much anything. The 3 choices I'd see are vents, CVS, VStab for digging out scouts, turbo, vents, VStab for embracing your inner blue hedgehog or vents, exhaust, VStab for extremely comfy invisible flexing that's only rivalled by Bat-Chat and light tanks.
