day 32 : you should try the jagdtiger sometime. it's extremly slow, doesn't have a turret, gets uptiers all the time, and most importantly, you'll have to play with german teams. the very definition of suffering

Sometimes when checking the distance the voices shout out the distance, before it shows it to you. Usually it is 50 m farther than actually. Meaning: knowing different languages is an advantage.

The Hungarian Nimrod AA/AT tank was similar, the Toldi and the 40mm arming it both originating with Swedish designs. Seriously, the Nimrod turret would've fitted the Panzer III, creating an effective FlaKPanzer long before Germany came up with the Wirbelwind.
@@nikoclesceri2267 sort of... the Nimrod took the predecessor to this (the Landsverk L-62 Anti I) and modified it for the Hungarians (they added an extra loader, doing so by making a larger turret), as well as improving turret front armour (from 13mm to 28mm) and later swapping out the L8V/36TR engine (160hp) for a Hungarian Ganz IP VGT 107 Type II (260hp according to some sources), and then some further minor differences. (also later Nimrods were modified to be able to load and fire 150mm Stielgranate rifle grenade: 180mm pen at 60 degrees HEAT with, 2.42kg of explosive, only 110m/s) this (the Anti II) differs from the original L-62 by haveing extra hull armour (20mm max vs 13mm on the Anti 1/Nimrod) and turret armour (20 vs 13, but still less than the Nimrod's 28) the Nimrod is thus 10.5tons vs this which is 10.7tons due to less armour overall, despite having more armour upfront. it also has a better power-to-weight ratio (especially the later Nimrods)
In case you're still in the mood for swedish tin cans, I'd love to see what you can do with the tiny swede 37 sabots, I've been using them for a while and they're endlessly entertaining. KV-1s and Su-122s never expect to get whammied with a stupid meme dart.
5:23 Oh my God, this gave me some flashbacks to the last stand mechanic. I'm so glad Gajin removed that, because it wasn't fun for anyone when tanks could still fight with one guy slowly switching between driving and shooting. Not to mention it made some tanks basically immortal under the right circumstances.
This thing sees 1.7 "enemies", yet works so easily at 4.0 and above. It is the perfect tool for seal clubbers. And Gaijin allows, even encourages it, it's almost as bad as the imbalance of CAS compared to any ground vehicle, and a perfect example of the very broken BR system. And why on a personal level I rarely bother to open the WT client. So much talk about how the "economy" is being fixed (and credit to Gaijin, at higher BR's it appears it is) but problems like this still remain, exasperated by their "events" that encourage selfish play. It can "one shot" an armoured ground vehicle, yet a lightly skinned plane will survive? (even heavily armoured planes have way less armour than a tank) How is that possible?
You said it yourself, planes dont have basically any armor, so the rounds for the 40mm dont get fused so they don't go boom, whereas when it hits a tank, the armor is thick enough to fuse the shell
@@gamerin4d Its almost as if SPAAs were designed to fire specifically at planes and held fire against anything that wasn't a plane, something a game cannot replicate due to meta-gaming on the players side.
@@holomatic1549you are absolutely foolish if you believe aa was only used against aircraft. And this vehicle, was originally designed as a light tank destroyer.
@@gamerin4d Your response is valid, but ignores the point the thing is totally "unbalanced" in a ground forces point of view. And even in an purely SPAA viewpoint, you'd expect that a player that was actually going to target planes would chose the rounds that could take out a plane (which are available), but no-one does, because... 1. Those rounds aren't that effective, especially with "real shatter" as currently implemented, and the very slow traverse/vertical movement makes low rank SPAA use difficult (skill issue, yep)... and 2. while you're trying to take out a plane, the rest of the enemy vehicles can see your tracers and have a free shot at you. Besides, there's no more points (rp/sp) to be gained trying to down air, while ground targets are so much easier. That's also why you rarely see a plane trying to provide "top cover" taking out other planes... ground vehicles are so much easier to hit, and with the same reward, so why bother? Why would you try to take out planes with your SPAA (or plane) when taking out tanks is so much more profitable and easier? Planes can continue to shoot/bomb/rocket ground targets even though the game declares them "destroyed", but if a ground vehicle loses the commander, just one crew member out of many, it then can't defend itself. (assuming the ground vehicle actually has an armament that can possibly counter air... like a 50 cal) My point , I guess, is that CAS in ground forces is not balanced in any way at all, and is far more problematic than the unballance of ground vehicles. .
@@holomatic1549 Not just the "players side". Players are taking advantage... or reacting to.. what is most effective. Just like spawn camping and map design problems.
hey spookston :3 i know you either won’t see this or won’t care, but i’m going through a rough patch mental health-wise and binging your videos helps a ton :3
Attempt 7 at requesting the British Conqueror, should be an interesting play with it’s 120mm, serviceable armor and full plane stabilizer, a better choice compared to the american M103 which only has HEAT-FS going for it downsides are: APDS, British, Heavy tank (basically everything anti-spookston)
the conqueror is the worst tank in game. servicable armor? like when anything with 88mm APHE or higher hits the matlet, the crew dies of emotional damage, or the ammo explodes: or all the 17mm cast armor hatches, that will be OPd by anything? Or the general 30mm turret roof? what about the gun? the APDS is not a problem, the issue is that it is early APDS. so accuracy is terrible, and it shatters on literally everything. if by some miracle it hits the target, and pens it, the most it will do is emotional damage. not to the enemy, but to the player with the conqueror. Oh, it is slow as heck too.... The only thing it does better than the m103 is having a stabilizer the m103 is faster, has good armor, a much more potent gun (ap will pen most things, and it does fairly good damage, if that's not enough you have HEAT, or HE), and it has no ready rack, while the conqueror has a laughably small 8 round ready rack, that might gets you 2 assists before it runs out. oh, also the m103 will not get OPd by 122mm HE too...
„dude sweden is ballanced youre just bad” Meanwhile the cv90105 taking no damage after i direct shot it with a sabot round at it, then proceeds to shoot me through 360mm of composite armour to one shot my entire crew
1:07 Don't feel bad, the Chi-Ha Long Gun is a higher being from another world. Hardly a failure on your part to not one shot such a heavenly entity of calamity. With that being said you should totally do a video on it chief. Cheers.
You should try all CV90s in one lineup, you get one 30mm bushmaster, a 40mm for each of the CV9040s (9040B, 9040C, Lvkv 90C, 9056 BILL), two 105mms that both can fire ATGMs, one on wheels and one with tracks, and eventually a 120mm autoloading cannon with 600mm+ pen APFSDS
If you want absolute swedish gremlin low tier experience use the pbil m40, an armored car with 6 people in it, two way gearbox, an autocannon and it can go like 80kmh, and its on 1.7. Absolute gremlin of a tank at that rank
Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has. I am not gonna surrender in proposing this. (Day 73)
It will be harder. I played AB 3.7 for a long time and can say he can demolish some Panzers, open top SPGs and trucks. But unless it's CQC, Shermans, T-34s, KVs and up-armored Panzers (which is the bulk of Ground Forces in this tier) will make your day insufferable

@@PureFalcon1 It kinda makes sense though. America beta tested their equipment and sold it with bells and whistles when they got bored with old toys. Also, there are other vehicles to be salty about. Like Chinese ZSU-57-2 being the top dog with nobody coming close.
Man this thing is evil for it's BR Also (day 13 asking) you should try the Japanese STA1/2/3/Type 61 (they're all kinda the same), decent mobility, good gun and great sight magnification makes them pretty fun to play.
Spookston you should play the russian traktor tank destroyer, the Zis-30, its so hilarious to play with its wacky suspension and to use in an uptier day 19
Btw, this isn't actually a Finnish vehicle, it's Swedish. The Swedish just made 6 of these for Finland to use against the Soviets late in WW2. Interestingly, Hungary developed and produced their own modified version called the 40M Nimrod, of which they built 135 and used against the Soviets all the way through WW2. Hopefully the 40M Nimrod will be added to the Hungarian subtree sometime.
I've noticed that occasionally the L-62's HE shell will ignore all armour. I was in an M4A3 105 and one shot my turret face, killed the entire crew in a single hit, and the kill feed showed a HE shell just passing straight through the armour
Don’t you just love it when you finally research a overpowerred vehicle then spooks the makes a vid about it you knowing that it’s gonna get nerfed now
Your channel appeared on my recommended not long ago and your content got me into playing War Thunder. Although I struggle with the gameplay often, it's very satisfying getting those rare steamrolls! But on another note, it would be funny for you to try the Swedish Tank Destroyer: Spj fm/43-44. Not the greatest muzzle velocity or gun depression, but it's like hitting an ant with a car
I really only played WT occasionally and never watched any content creators. After watching WT videos, it made me realize how much I didn't know how to play the game. I had no clue you could adjust your gun sight for a range, turn your gun in the commander sight, turn off your engine, things that I'm sure are second nature to most players but I had no idea they were actually in the game.
Honestly, I think most players don’t know a lot of those things unless they’ve watched content creators or had friends that were already skilled in the game that taught them
Oh yeah, I've played this game since the ground side was in Beta and there are still moments where I just openly reverse or push when I think I can but just get slapped. Like in the moment I know what I am doing is stupid, but I am doing it anyway.
How this thing has been promising at 2.7 for like 2 years now without anything being done about it really shows how much Gaijin cares about balancing the Swedes.
If you liked this youd love the AMX-30 DCA. It shoots a belt that is APHE/APDS/APHE/HE. It shreds tanks, the apds gets thru thicker armor and the aphe nukes the inside of tanks. Its so fun
you should try the italian P40. its by no means the best tank, but you can angle it to holy hell, its gun isnt useless, and enemies will definitely underestimate you.
there was a point where you could go down to 1 crew, you held the forward button for the gunner to switch to the driver, and driver to gunner. crew agility was vital during that time
It would be nice if these 37/40mm vehicles got completely unmixed belt options, since they shoot slow having one inappropriate round has the potential to fuck you over, primarily with air targets, since you will likely get only one hit on them and if you happen to land a hit with an AP shell, then the plane just gets away. In addition to a “mixed ground” belt which alternates between the higher damage round and the higher pen round, such as a SAP/APC belt for this vehicle.
I had a thought about playing a chronologically correct lineup, like bringing the PT-76 or Concept 3 up to Cold War stuff, or other instances I may be unaware of.
I got God Mode in this thing. I LOL'd for a good long while after that. Got a side shot on spawn camping Leo while I still had immunity. Game had gone to Hell, team just fed and fed and fed and lost. I was the last person on the team. That is the best AA I have unlocked in Sweden, so I threw it in the line for the Hell of it. Glad I did.
As a Swedish main, I have no idea what a heavy tank is
It's like a strv 101 but even slower
As a british main i have no idea what a good shell is
As a german main, i have no idea what a good team is.

Attempt 14: please try the Gremlin tank R3 T106 FA sometime! It really fits the fast light tank playtime you like.
Spookston when the enemy team tries to leave spawn:
Do not.
Honestly I think a good nerf would be reducing penetration and explosive mass of the SAP round
Btw, this isn't actually a Finnish vehicle, it's Swedish. The Swedish just made 6 of these for Finland to use against the Soviets late in WW2. Interestingly, Hungary developed and produced their own modified version called the 40M Nimrod, of which they built 135 and used against the Soviets all the way through WW2. Hopefully the 40M Nimrod will be added to the Hungarian subtree sometime.
Day 291 of asking Spookston to play the Marder III H. Little gremlin sniper 😈
When you see a youtuber on the enemy team and suddenly your skill level drops to "Games Journalist"
3:30 Funny thing is, that is the best pronunciation of the name I've heard from a non-Swede.
Sometimes I feel helpless when planes shoot me, until I remember this shit is an AA.
love the emotionless commentary, just like me open up any war thunder german 11.3 match
I've noticed that occasionally the L-62's HE shell will ignore all armour. I was in an M4A3 105 and one shot my turret face, killed the entire crew in a single hit, and the kill feed showed a HE shell just passing straight through the armour
4:56 One shots tanks, doesn't one shot planes.Peak gaijin entertainment right here .SPAA btw
Hello Spookston, I would love to see you play the Dicker Max
Day 1
Don’t you just love it when you finally research a overpowerred vehicle then spooks the makes a vid about it you knowing that it’s gonna get nerfed now
Your channel appeared on my recommended not long ago and your content got me into playing War Thunder. Although I struggle with the gameplay often, it's very satisfying getting those rare steamrolls! But on another note, it would be funny for you to try the Swedish Tank Destroyer: Spj fm/43-44. Not the greatest muzzle velocity or gun depression, but it's like hitting an ant with a car
Playing this thing and one tappin everyone is pure therapy. I love it.
Everytime I feel down spookston posts. It’s like he knows.
I really only played WT occasionally and never watched any content creators. After watching WT videos, it made me realize how much I didn't know how to play the game. I had no clue you could adjust your gun sight for a range, turn your gun in the commander sight, turn off your engine, things that I'm sure are second nature to most players but I had no idea they were actually in the game.
Honestly, I think most players don’t know a lot of those things unless they’ve watched content creators or had friends that were already skilled in the game that taught them
Watching spookston play war thunder almost makes me want to play war thunder
I saw the thumbnail and was like 'well, yes, the Hungarians DID purchase it as the Nimrod precisely because it was supposed to be both AA and AT.'
I was really standing up when you said it's just you knocking your table
"I am a professional war thunder gamer"
"That sounds nasty.."
Yes. Yes it does, especially when you say it like that.
"Oh I hear bad guys" Spooks do you even hear yourself?
Btw I love the direction you've taken your editing, keep up the good work
Oh yeah, I've played this game since the ground side was in Beta and there are still moments where I just openly reverse or push when I think I can but just get slapped. Like in the moment I know what I am doing is stupid, but I am doing it anyway.
The gunner was a champion on Poland, injured and managing to traverse the turret and reload in less than a second at the same time.
"I'm a professional WT Gamer. That sounds nasty" 7:45
Thank u for making vacation better tank doggo - you never miss (except when the snail seems it so)
How this thing has been promising at 2.7 for like 2 years now without anything being done about it really shows how much Gaijin cares about balancing the Swedes.
If you liked this youd love the AMX-30 DCA. It shoots a belt that is APHE/APDS/APHE/HE. It shreds tanks, the apds gets thru thicker armor and the aphe nukes the inside of tanks. Its so fun
He already has made a video about it like a year or so ago
6:48 the lvkv has adjustable suspension, might come in handy for the future
This and the pbv 301 are both really funny. The pbv is so low in br its 48mm pen shreds most things it faces even frontally
im from finland so i understand the crew shouting and it just makes me feel more like i am in the tank when i play finnish tanks
bro yesterday me and my friend got absolutely obliterated by an L-62 Anti II, and today you post this?!
Spookston: "I don't think all my viewers are new to War Thunder"
Me with 3500+ hours: 😳🤯
you should try the italian P40. its by no means the best tank, but you can angle it to holy hell, its gun isnt useless, and enemies will definitely underestimate you.
with how much fun these videos are i would pay to be your editor
there was a point where you could go down to 1 crew, you held the forward button for the gunner to switch to the driver, and driver to gunner. crew agility was vital during that time
I honestly missed the feature but i understand why it was removed, especially in tanks where the driver is so far from the rest of the crew
@@DewaKrishna_ Im glad it was removed, It was easier to move to the next tank rather than trying to survive. Plus there was no crew replenishment.
It would be nice if these 37/40mm vehicles got completely unmixed belt options, since they shoot slow having one inappropriate round has the potential to fuck you over, primarily with air targets, since you will likely get only one hit on them and if you happen to land a hit with an AP shell, then the plane just gets away. In addition to a “mixed ground” belt which alternates between the higher damage round and the higher pen round, such as a SAP/APC belt for this vehicle.
May the Panzer III M rest in peace. 🙏
this made me remember what kind of a mess the sdkfz 6-2 was pre "la royale" where i'm pretty sure it got apcr with like 70mm pen
3:14 my man had one of the most dramatic deaths ever in war thunder
that Panzer dying from the fall tickled me hard.
Bro the memes this vid have been top notch. love animals :)) especially the shepherds looking around!
I had a thought about playing a chronologically correct lineup, like bringing the PT-76 or Concept 3 up to Cold War stuff, or other instances I may be unaware of.
the use of the death music of soap for the Panzer 3 made me really sad but it was perfect
I got God Mode in this thing. I LOL'd for a good long while after that.
Got a side shot on spawn camping Leo while I still had immunity. Game had gone to Hell, team just fed and fed and fed and lost. I was the last person on the team. That is the best AA I have unlocked in Sweden, so I threw it in the line for the Hell of it. Glad I did.
Spookston: Why did I say La-Go like the Japanese Tank
Gaijin on their way to invent a new fake tank: Write that down! Write that down!
the game would be 10x more fun if aphe didnt explode in a sphere
also the dog emotes are beyond cute, keep adding them :D
Swedish SPAA when a any amount of planes are in the sky: I Sleep
Swedish SPAA when a lightly armored ground vehicle is within 500m: REAL SHIT
