Key word "was" since the whole British tech tree is just pain
Nah, I disagree I still enjoy playing it really much ! :)
Same I enjoy playing british tree,maybe sometimes gets frustrated with the speed but u can always play some other nation in the meanwhile while taking a break from the slowness of british tank
That's just not true at all...
yeah the problem is that they nerfed APDS...they shatter continuosly!
The British tree is only pain if you dont know how to play the game
Always the worst when an old great tank gets power-crept and is no longer viable in the current meta
i get annoyed when everyone is playing it bc its so powerful, and then no one is playing it. theres never a happy medium
@@MotherScreng What you are experiencing then, is the boringness of modern gamers. People only use the best now, everything else is simply grouped as "the rest".
8.7 is one of those brs that’s a lot of fun to play because you get a lot of 7.7-9.3 games but rarely get uptiered to 9.7 and in full down tiers it’s extremely OP and you avoid the premium cancer 10.3 games.
The British tech tree is great for teaching people to slow down and be much more careful of sight lines and noting where the fast bois can pop up. You are the defensive line and flank protection
First goal of any war thunder match, trying to get out of spawn without being mauled by your team mates. Great vid as always Jon. The chieftains, although not great are my favorite tanks in this whole game. Something about them.
There are 2 solutions to making the Mk.3 and Mk.5 great again.
1. Bring them back to 8.3 where they truly shined.
2. Give them APFSDS (eventually because of it they may get moved up again but with APFSDS they'd be dealing with a lot of stuff much easier).
their apfsds is insane even at 9.0 lol, its basically DM33-105 but out of a 120, so it gets far more spalling than the 105 APFSDS. Just revert the nerf to the APDS and moveto 8.3.
i enjoyed my mk5 and mk3 8.7 lineup a ton yestoday grinding to 10.3 uk atm using those tanks, they are pretty solid in hulldown situations still, and the 120mm apds can work somewhat okey(even tho not apfsds tier of good). and rld + tank speeds are diff drawbacks.
chieftain mk 10?vid
I remember back in the day when the mk3 was added it was absolutely insane t10 couldn’t touch the lower plate and neither could leopards or m60s the mk3 when it came out was so op I stopped grinding my main nation to grind to the mk3 I used the black prince it was fucking painful lol
"(Techtree) used to stomp so now its their turn to suffer is a bad mindset to have"
>The british TT not being mentioned by those same people ever
I really love nearly everything in the UK ground tree from 8.3 even up to 9.3.
It's so much super nice stuff. The Chieftains Mk3 & 5 just work, the wheeled tanks are great (yes, even the rooikat mk1). MTTD is just hilarious, VFM5 is amazing (although being the same BR as TAM 2IP is weird).
Overall its just a lovely experience.
The mk 10 is awesome because the armor works in uptiers
The MK.10 is an absolute beast too! I use 9.0 England frequently it’s a solid lineup
Heyy thoughts on the of40? I love the speed + laser rangefinder + 105mm combo at 8.0
love the videos and streams keep it up!
Facing this with 7,7 France is scary
Once played this on berlin. Sat hull down in back of map who game and got bashed fot playing the way it was ment to be played. (I dropped 10 kills or so and 1 heli)
Man this game gets more and more shitty by every update, I’ve basically lost interest in playing this game. Yet I will continue to watch my boy Jon
You should play the Khalid.❤
its very curvy😉
Hey guys, what was the BPA squadron name again? There should be 2 now i gues ?
2Head, you need to join the discord first and post your name in the application channel
khalid vs rooikat which is a better purchase?
I like the rooikat its a flanking monster with great speed retention, doesnt spin out like stryker or radkamp. I want the Khalid, might get it next sale because very good maneuverability and good round, decent armor but just need to play more carefully from what ive seen
really depends on your playstyle. Slow and methodical with good gun and turret, or fast scout tank?
I bought the Khalid, really liked it at first then started raging at how incredibly powercreaped it is. Downtiers are insanely uncommon while I get uptiers 8/10 games. In those uptiers you are outclassed by everything. Even at your own tier the Khalid isn't extraordinary, good shell but you sadly enough can't take good advantage of it due to its 9...s reload which is incredibly painful when you can face tanks with 5s reloads. Good vert turret rotation but the horizontal speed is subpar, mobility is actually pretty good but its armor is horrid. A 8.3 hull at 9.7. Overall it's an alright tank in a downtier or at your own tier but it's just not great in an uptier, which are incredibly common due to how many 10.3 premiums are running around now.
@@DewthWishWould really not suggest it, I was tempted by it's raw stats as well but trust me the tank isn't that good in the current meta. Armor is bad against everything but 30mm autocannons. Turret handeling feels really bad to me (I find horizontal>vert), reload rate is horrid 9s doesn't feel much more than 7s but boy do you feel it in game. I honestly prefer the L/44 leo over this thing.
Day 26 of asking Jon to play the Chinese PT-76
