So.... They're introducing, a tank, they removed because the community didn't think it preform well, so they're gonna potentially add it back for those of us who are old enough to remember how bad it was, but, they giving it a heavy nerf, for a trade of 1 tier less, despite almost everyone agreeing the only thing the tank needed was simply, a down grade in a tier. But what would I know I've been playing the game since alpha, and I've out lived 90% of the developers left on the team.
They're going to ad it back... with it's unique characteristic ability nerfed (if slightly). And they're going to make sure that most players will have to scrounge up two additional crew that have no purpose anywhere else... they're salivating at all the $$$ spent re-training and up-skilling those two crew members.
I can understand why they nerfed the dpm, but this is just overkill, the tank won’t be able to kill anything except for low health targets. And relying on your team to get them to that low health is just a ridiculous feature of this thing. I was looking forward to it coming back, but I’m not very optimistic anymore.
I dont think for what that tank would even be good at now, no alpha, no DPM, big barrel of a tank, no armor, bad speed, not the best view range, bad camo, and SOME potencial for ramming, this tank would now be pile of poop
@ValiantVoyager yeah never be optimistic about this game if it is about german vehicles. If they made RoF about 13-13.5 i would be okay with it. But it is under 11.... what WG was thinking. And to be honest, i think they should have left 60km/h speed limit since the tank is pretty big anyway to be hard to hit it. With anything else, i would have been fine. Although my pessimist already told me this tank's statistics will be trashed before i watched the video.
@@Tsuku_yomi Considering the power creep and the newer super fast lights in the game, I think they should have left the weight and engine the same and BUFFED the speed. That in combination with not *completely* murdering the DPM could have made this a really fun tank to play again.

Welp, looks like this is actually going to be legitimately called the "Awful Panther" now because of the absolute OVERKILL on the DPM nerf. This logic reminds me of the Console version's awful Dev team and their obsession with nerfing every tank that's ported from PC to Console. The tank is pretty much ruined now. No novelty whatsoever.

I'd like to point out that the FCM 50t, which, just like the AFK Panther, never sees tier X vehicles, has: -better P/W -similar top speed -similar traverse speed -50% more weight (20 tons heavier) -better armor (helps when ramming) While the FCM 50t is a large target, the AFK Panther is by no means small.
Looks like its back to being the Awful Panther to me, 1.4k DPM for 135 alpha? That is atrocious, tier 6 meds have like similar HP and like 2k DPM with the same alpha. Also 55kph top speed, nah this looks just poor to me, have to remember as well its huge so easy to hit and the camo is bad because of that. So a slow, large, easy to hit light tank with no DPM and no alpha, sounds fun.
Remember fondly the ramming and the konisch gun. It was special and fun. One of my favorites. And then they took it away. They could have given it back unaltered. Hope to get it back for free.
oh i had so fond memories of my AFKpanther light tank, loved ramming things with it. usualy ran it with the stock tier 5 leo turret so it was harder to hit. sad day when it was removed.
Aufklarungpanther used to be mo favorite tank. Was super fast, had good view range and I loved the 0725 Waffe Konisch gun. I completed my StugIV LT15 in this vehicle. Looking forward to getting it back.
Same gun (Waffe 0725) that's on the VK3001 and 3601, used to be called the Konish back in the A. Panther days. Great Gun, slightly better than the L70 you see on the Panther M10 and all tier 6 Panther variants VK3002M, Pudel, Bretagne P.
thank you so much QB for your daily videos ! It is now many years I follow you and I hope you keep going this really nice work !! you gave me a lot of good advice to improve myself in the game thank you so much !!! You´re the best :)
I loved the old MM mechanics quiet well. AFK Panther with the 10,5cm derpgun was a nice ramm and shotgun tank! You dealed massive damage with the ram attack and derp for like 100
Hey, Quicky! I played WoT since 2014 and I last played in 2019... Do you mind answering me few question i get when I remember the good old days? 1. Do you think WoT has a future? 2. Do you think premium vehicles/gold shells are a bit too p2w and overpowered? 3. Do you think Artillery is unbalanced (as it was my favorite type of a tank to play, it hit me hard when they got nerfed) 4. And what do you think of War Thunder? as its a game that has tanks but is more "realistic", so we could call it a competitor to WoT which I think had 5x the playerbase. THANKS!
It looks like a very weak "reward" to me, just like the 167mm pen "Super" Hellcat from last year. As Meathead Militia would say, "Today we are giving you a free garage slot."
Honestly, I really wanted this tank in the game as a collector's vehicle. That way people could configure it with whatever modules they wanted rather than being stuck with a particular gun for instance.
QUICKYBABY! QUACKABOBE! QUIKYBIB! How about reviewing some "forgotten" tanks? (Non-premium) tanks with a really low play rate, or tanks that were removed from the tech tree (marder, Hetzer, etc)? Some tech tree tank you haven't seen in a long time?
I think that will be a well-deserved reward but i believe that it is next years! This year it will be Super Chafee!!! (or so i believe.. »» 2018: T50-2 [tier6] »» 2019: Super Hellcat [tier7] »» 2020 [?]: Super Chaffee [tier6] »» 2021 [?]: Aufklarungspanzer Panther [tier 7], thats what i think it will be. But i think that the tank needs to be a litle better then it is right now with those stats... I'm a Light Tank Guy i love them. But allmoust all LT's are kind of the "same" gameplay wise... this one really was not an ordinary LT, that was the main factor to make me love it. (by the way it was one of my 1st German tanks to Ace LOL), and i really liked it too, it was unique very diferent from all the others and it makes him stand off from the others, it was the true LT hunter!! Ramming LT's and Arty like a Boss!! But i think that this tank needs a litle more love to meet the sweet spot were we can count on him to fight back the competition...I would give him the 900Hp (or even 1000Hp) engine and the 60Km/h top speed, the view range could be better but i dont mind it too much for tier a tier 7 tank, 380mts is not bad... But the DPM really needs to be better, either buff only the reload time or give a small buff to Alfa damage and reload time to get DPM to 1800+ near to 1900. But i have other sugestion.... There was other thing that i miss from German Scouts from long long ago... Can you guess? Yes.... THE DERP 105mm GUN!!! give it back for this baby keep the low DPM and give it the 900Hp engine and the 60Km/h top speed. Imagine Raming and Derping with the same beast... That would be my Aufklärungspanzer!!!
I really hope it is the Aufklpanther. I loved ramming *EVERYTHING* with that tank, even the E 100 and the Maus (I never got to do ram damage to the latter, but I did ram kill the former). Favorite moments include: Ram killing an E 100 on Himmelsdorf, dive bombing a Tiger 2 from the lighthouse on Cliff, pissing off an IS 6 driver who thought Heavy tanks couldn't be ram killed by light tanks, ram killed a T95 to save an Su 152 on my team, and surprise an E 50 driver who thought he would survive the ram with my aufklpanther. I so hope we get it back.
On the original "Afkul Panther" day, I was going up a hill next to a heavy with the stock tank. The heavy won the race. :) Cross-chat was having a bunch of fun with the only AFK in the battle.
I think most people are missing the point here. I think what made the tank special was it’s weight. Because you could ram lightly armored medium tanks and giggle about it. Also the gun was hilarious. The German speaking wouldn’t finish speaking when the next shell was loaded.
On console this is a little under powered and it's NOT nerfed. However when a t7 ranked battle event happened it squashes the competition when played smartly. Ramming other lights for FULL health is just heaven.
@@QuickyBabyTV I really hope they give the Aufklpanther the same speed as it did in the past, the dpm needs to be buffed to deal with the ferarris that it will face, but at least I want them to give it the same top speed (if not more, to deal with the current meta) as it had in the past. I loved the Aufklpanther so much and have so many fond memories with that tank, one of them where I ram killed an E 100 on Himmelsdorf (which I sadly didn't upload the replay of), another one where I scared the shit out of a Centurion 1 player by ram killing him from behind, something that reminded him of the aliens from the Aliens franchise.
omg my Awesomepanzer Panther is coming back. my old aufkl crew became a panther 88 crew when it was removed and later became my Leopard 1 crew and now have like 5 skills. I distinctly remember grinding this tank and I always seemed to get Port and that one snow map with the Sturmtiger cameo and just ramming things to death when I was low health (other lights and all mediums except german). also its little brother the vk 2801 when it was rocking the 105mm howitzer. this was when the ru 251 was the fastest tank ingame. these preliminary stats do it no justice. you have the same (read bad) camo, iffy armor, reduced top speed, and reduced view range. I know wargaming is trying to put it in line with the nerfed light dpm these days but what made this tank one of my favorites was that you either shred your targets with your good dpm or ram/kamikaze them with controlled impact and maybe a spall liner. make aufklarungs great again
VK28.01 turret on panther hull, pretty much. That DPM is really low. I would be happy with 1600-1800 DPM. It should be similar to Type 62 or WZ-131 in play style. At the same time, SP I C is just sad. Low DPM, low shell velocity, SMFH.
Well, the "super" Chaffee is arguably the bigger chance for a well-deserved reward. Tho... who knows. As some have 10 years under their belt they might do something for those higher up in years vs just 4 years and up was it?
Looks nice, too bad they nerfed its characteristics into oblivion. Same with the Super Hellcat, that tank is an absolute joke as well. The Super Hellcat would be really nice to play if it had preferential matchmaking, but it doesn't, so it is underpowered af.
QuickyBaby, if I can give you one advice: instead of trying to say a bastardized version of the tank's name, what I always found useful is simply calling it the English equivalent. This is easy in the case of the Tiger and the Panther, but it works wonders with tanks like the Löwe (Lion), Nashorn (Rhino), or that Aufklärungspanzer Panther (Reconnaissance/Scout Panther). It's also easier to say Lynx than Luchs.
Why didn't they just keep it the same as before and make it tier eight, just like with super hellcat, but after the light tank tier rework it would even make sense in this case
wtf no that would make the armor completely useless. And the Super Hellcat is a joke. I'd understand if that tank would have preferential matchmaking, but it doesnt, which renders it useless. The penetration of this tank is abysmal for a TD, hell, the Scorpion has the same penetration on its standard rounds as the S. Hellcat has on its premium rounds. The S. Hellcat is barely better than the regular Hellcat, its a freaking joke and I can't understand why people don't hate this tank. I was really disappointed that this tank was last years well-deserved reward, since it is absolutely horrible. Seems they do it this time again. The dpm is waayy too low of the AFK and the top speed nerf as wella s the view range nerf is completely unjustified. This way the AFK is going to play more like a medium tank, but with that bad dpm it won't be competetive at all. And I have the feeling that WG hates light tanks anyway, just look how weak all of the tier X light tanks are. They are all completely useless, except for the EBR.
i used to have the auf panzer panther and i absolutely loved it mostly because it was fast and accurate (really accurate) but the fact they nerfed everything...now it’s only a worse version of the VK.28.01
I played this as a tech tree tank.. Hated it as a scout, hated it as a sniper, don't believe in spamming gold, but when you just rofl-stomp any other LT in the game with a ram. Man, do I miss it.
You mean how they gave everyone easy access to the low tier reward tanks, making our years of playing/collecting pointless? At least there are a few rewards players have to actually wait to get. This tank has to see a lot of OP pay2win tier 8s, this thing seems like shit.
It was called the awful panther back in the day back when it had a god tier fire rate, destroying the tanks identity but giving it slightly better matchmaking will kill this tank. I have it on console and it’s literally my favorite tank in the game.
WG: So, how's our planned well-deserved reward tank for this year? Supertesters: Well, it's far worse than before in comparison and yet the game has moved on since, as in most other tanks have become a lot stronger and so forth? WG: Into the game the tank goes then, thanks guys!
Wow ! Once again (not often) I totally agree with Quicky on a tank :) Started playin 6+ years ago and then the two most fun tanks in my garage were the ELC with real 90mm @ tier 5 and the Awful-Panther @ tier 7 !!! Their both gone and oddly my fav now is the Evil 90 @ tier 8 and the Luchs @ tier 4 which isnt real seal clubbing .....lol
I always wanted that tank back. I liked it when I saw it on the battle field, never got the chance to drive it myself. As for the new stats go...well, for me, I am not a fan of the fire rate nerf, other nerfs, I can live with though.
I quit grinding normal tanks because WG has given me so many premium vehicles that I'm having a hard time just getting all the crews trained up! I play my favorites every day to get through the daily missions and then use each of the newer premiums to give them some more XP.
thats all well and good but, what date are we going to be receiving the rewards and will we be getting the same sort of stuff as last year (aka - the couple of thousand bonds and millions of credits)?
I remember the day I rammed a t59 i this thing. At full speed down a hill managed to caught him in side and rammes him for his full hp. I loved it and its rof made me prema tracking a opponent felt soo good. Sad to see its rof murdering and its weight reduction.
The DPM nerf I feel would be sufficient I wish they would keep the speed weight and view range, I don’t think it would be OP. After that travesty of a tier 6 light we got for the 10 year celebration they could give us something good this time
I for my part QuickyBaby enjoyed the Aufklärungspanther back in the days of it being a tech tree scout. It was a special and agile tank. Since no one really thought it to be good no one also bothered to be carefull once one popped up in the match list. And yeah.... That carnage you could unleash by tackling the other lights straight in the sides or rear XD And if you needed to soften up a tank your DpM was more than capable of doing the job. The only issue i had was the size of the tank. A big lass that one :o But hey: Risk it for the biscuit i suppose :) I always love the more underdog tanks in WoT like the T69 and the Aufklärungspanther instead of the more mainstream tanks like the Object 257 or TDs like the ISU-152 who pack a punch like a horse dick but are moody as hell itself XP
Looks like I was wrong! The Super Chaffee will be the well deserved reward! I hope WG still bring back the AFK panther somehow!
The only way I'll come back to the game, is if they give me back AFK Panther.
yeh, was my favourite.
It’s on black market
Here because it's on BM right now but in a game full off physics defying, shot bouncing wheeled vehicles I can't see how this will have a chance.
@@staggabob yeh, I had a look and I don't think I'd have the same fun I used to have with it.

-better P/W
-similar top speed
-similar traverse speed
-50% more weight (20 tons heavier)
-better armor (helps when ramming)
While the FCM 50t is a large target, the AFK Panther is by no means small.
Oh, and also 20m additional view range.

oh i had so fond memories of my AFKpanther light tank, loved ramming things with it. usualy ran it with the stock tier 5 leo turret so it was harder to hit. sad day when it was removed.
Aufklarungpanther used to be mo favorite tank. Was super fast, had good view range and I loved the 0725 Waffe Konisch gun. I completed my StugIV LT15 in this vehicle. Looking forward to getting it back.
Just a shout out to all as an FYI -- the CVS is not available until Tier 8. Sadly!
QB, ty for your stellar review(s) and comparisons in spreadsheets!
Same gun (Waffe 0725) that's on the VK3001 and 3601, used to be called the Konish back in the A. Panther days. Great Gun, slightly better than the L70 you see on the Panther M10 and all tier 6 Panther variants VK3002M, Pudel,
Bretagne P.
I'd actually like a premium M7 or a similar sort of vehicle, used to love that tank when it was a medium
But the M7 is still there . . . as a "collector's vehicle" and a rebranded light tank
And nerfed it...
@@LeonidasRex1 Very true
I got addicted to your videos plz continue your daily upload thanks QB
thank you so much QB for your daily videos ! It is now many years I follow you and I hope you keep going this really nice work !! you gave me a lot of good advice to improve myself in the game thank you so much !!! You´re the best :)
I loved the old MM mechanics quiet well. AFK Panther with the 10,5cm derpgun was a nice ramm and shotgun tank! You dealed massive damage with the ram attack and derp for like 100
and the normal T7 panther has the same speed its weird ... its like a panther with less firepower and 4 hp per ton gain instead
and less HP! oh man its like a stock panther but with a team in the back that yells: "SPOT F**** SCOUT SPOT!!!11111!!1!" -.-
Hey, Quicky! I played WoT since 2014 and I last played in 2019... Do you mind answering me few question i get when I remember the good old days?
1. Do you think WoT has a future?
2. Do you think premium vehicles/gold shells are a bit too p2w and overpowered?
3. Do you think Artillery is unbalanced (as it was my favorite type of a tank to play, it hit me hard when they got nerfed)
4. And what do you think of War Thunder? as its a game that has tanks but is more "realistic", so we could call it a competitor to WoT which I think had 5x the playerbase. THANKS!
We never had a good Panther tank in the game since 2011... Thanks WG for the garage slot!
And credits
The Jagdpanthers are both good .
When i turn on translation: *The Afghanistan Panther*
Lol
It's actually Recon Panther
Was a favorite back in the day - never understood the Awfulpanther title
It looks like a very weak "reward" to me, just like the 167mm pen "Super" Hellcat from last year. As Meathead Militia would say, "Today we are giving you a free garage slot."
Rip meat head militia he made my childhood in this game 😂
Do i have to login to claim the reward ?
i still have the meathead militia stickers from that event way back when
Honestly, I really wanted this tank in the game as a collector's vehicle. That way people could configure it with whatever modules they wanted rather than being stuck with a particular gun for instance.
Super Chaffee: *stares menacingly at a distance*
Remember when the SP 1 C first came out and had a fun autoloader? Pepperidge Farm remembers...
QB: I can't believe it's November already
me: just November? come on fucking 2020 end already
QUICKYBABY! QUACKABOBE! QUIKYBIB!
How about reviewing some "forgotten" tanks? (Non-premium) tanks with a really low play rate, or tanks that were removed from the tech tree (marder, Hetzer, etc)? Some tech tree tank you haven't seen in a long time?
Good idea
yes that would be good, he could review a low played tank such as the mauschen

@@dudepants3 Australia, where it's springtime.
@@gz3zbz australia, the only relevant place on the opposite spectrum of seasons.
I think that will be a well-deserved reward but i believe that it is next years! This year it will be Super Chafee!!! (or so i believe.. »» 2018: T50-2 [tier6] »» 2019: Super Hellcat [tier7] »» 2020 [?]: Super Chaffee [tier6] »» 2021 [?]: Aufklarungspanzer Panther [tier 7], thats what i think it will be. But i think that the tank needs to be a litle better then it is right now with those stats...
I'm a Light Tank Guy i love them. But allmoust all LT's are kind of the "same" gameplay wise... this one really was not an ordinary LT, that was the main factor to make me love it. (by the way it was one of my 1st German tanks to Ace LOL), and i really liked it too, it was unique very diferent from all the others and it makes him stand off from the others, it was the true LT hunter!! Ramming LT's and Arty like a Boss!!
But i think that this tank needs a litle more love to meet the sweet spot were we can count on him to fight back the competition...I would give him the 900Hp (or even 1000Hp) engine and the 60Km/h top speed, the view range could be better but i dont mind it too much for tier a tier 7 tank, 380mts is not bad... But the DPM really needs to be better, either buff only the reload time or give a small buff to Alfa damage and reload time to get DPM to 1800+ near to 1900.
But i have other sugestion.... There was other thing that i miss from German Scouts from long long ago...
Can you guess?
Yes.... THE DERP 105mm GUN!!! give it back for this baby keep the low DPM and give it the 900Hp engine and the 60Km/h top speed.
Imagine Raming and Derping with the same beast... That would be my Aufklärungspanzer!!!
I really hope it is the Aufklpanther. I loved ramming *EVERYTHING* with that tank, even the E 100 and the Maus (I never got to do ram damage to the latter, but I did ram kill the former). Favorite moments include: Ram killing an E 100 on Himmelsdorf, dive bombing a Tiger 2 from the lighthouse on Cliff, pissing off an IS 6 driver who thought Heavy tanks couldn't be ram killed by light tanks, ram killed a T95 to save an Su 152 on my team, and surprise an E 50 driver who thought he would survive the ram with my aufklpanther. I so hope we get it back.
On the original "Afkul Panther" day, I was going up a hill next to a heavy with the stock tank. The heavy won the race. :)
Cross-chat was having a bunch of fun with the only AFK in the battle.
I was sub 48% WR on it originally, but I still liked it. I'm a bit of a Panther nut.
I think most people are missing the point here. I think what made the tank special was it’s weight. Because you could ram lightly armored medium tanks and giggle about it. Also the gun was hilarious. The German speaking wouldn’t finish speaking when the next shell was loaded.
I'm loving these daily uploads! Keep up the great work.
On console this is a little under powered and it's NOT nerfed. However when a t7 ranked battle event happened it squashes the competition when played smartly. Ramming other lights for FULL health is just heaven.
12:37 qb i remember t7 tanks can't use commander vision system right?
Right, you canonly use it at tier 8 and above, and i hate it because i want it on my 13 57f😅
Yes, secret nerf when equipment 2.0 dropped
Bruh
MY DREAMS ARE RUINED
@@QuickyBabyTV I really hope they give the Aufklpanther the same speed as it did in the past, the dpm needs to be buffed to deal with the ferarris that it will face, but at least I want them to give it the same top speed (if not more, to deal with the current meta) as it had in the past. I loved the Aufklpanther so much and have so many fond memories with that tank, one of them where I ram killed an E 100 on Himmelsdorf (which I sadly didn't upload the replay of), another one where I scared the shit out of a Centurion 1 player by ram killing him from behind, something that reminded him of the aliens from the Aliens franchise.
omg my Awesomepanzer Panther is coming back. my old aufkl crew became a panther 88 crew when it was removed and later became my Leopard 1 crew and now have like 5 skills. I distinctly remember grinding this tank and I always seemed to get Port and that one snow map with the Sturmtiger cameo and just ramming things to death when I was low health (other lights and all mediums except german). also its little brother the vk 2801 when it was rocking the 105mm howitzer. this was when the ru 251 was the fastest tank ingame.
these preliminary stats do it no justice. you have the same (read bad) camo, iffy armor, reduced top speed, and reduced view range. I know wargaming is trying to put it in line with the nerfed light dpm these days but what made this tank one of my favorites was that you either shred your targets with your good dpm or ram/kamikaze them with controlled impact and maybe a spall liner.
make aufklarungs great again
VK28.01 turret on panther hull, pretty much.
That DPM is really low. I would be happy with 1600-1800 DPM. It should be similar to Type 62 or WZ-131 in play style.
At the same time, SP I C is just sad. Low DPM, low shell velocity, SMFH.
Well, the "super" Chaffee is arguably the bigger chance for a well-deserved reward. Tho... who knows. As some have 10 years under their belt they might do something for those higher up in years vs just 4 years and up was it?
WG: a well deserved Reward the aufklarungspanzer panther
AEG:FINNALY THEY HAVE DONE IT
SPOOKYSCARYMIRNYTANKS2020 code for NA
ill try it
thanks. it works
Thanks!
What does it do?
Thanks!
I'm hyped to get this bad boy back. I've still got a four skill crew for it from the Ancient Times.
Looks nice, too bad they nerfed its characteristics into oblivion. Same with the Super Hellcat, that tank is an absolute joke as well. The Super Hellcat would be really nice to play if it had preferential matchmaking, but it doesn't, so it is underpowered af.
Starter pack for the release day: SU-152, T-29, IS-2, any tier 8 or 9 tank because it's propably going to be a lot of top tiers.
QuickyBaby, if I can give you one advice: instead of trying to say a bastardized version of the tank's name, what I always found useful is simply calling it the English equivalent. This is easy in the case of the Tiger and the Panther, but it works wonders with tanks like the Löwe (Lion), Nashorn (Rhino), or that Aufklärungspanzer Panther (Reconnaissance/Scout Panther). It's also easier to say Lynx than Luchs.
Is it weird that I wanted it back at tier 6 but with it's stock gun. I have interesting memories of not being able to pen tier 10 mediums from behind.
QB: *Pronounces tank name*
Me, who did German for a few years up to last year at school: not bad
Pronounce Panther like "panter" and you are fine :)
QB went from chill statistic reading to "I drank 5 Coffes and did coke befor recording this. Also I eate way to many sweets" I kinda like it :P
Why didn't they just keep it the same as before and make it tier eight, just like with super hellcat, but after the light tank tier rework it would even make sense in this case
wtf no that would make the armor completely useless. And the Super Hellcat is a joke. I'd understand if that tank would have preferential matchmaking, but it doesnt, which renders it useless. The penetration of this tank is abysmal for a TD, hell, the Scorpion has the same penetration on its standard rounds as the S. Hellcat has on its premium rounds. The S. Hellcat is barely better than the regular Hellcat, its a freaking joke and I can't understand why people don't hate this tank. I was really disappointed that this tank was last years well-deserved reward, since it is absolutely horrible. Seems they do it this time again. The dpm is waayy too low of the AFK and the top speed nerf as wella s the view range nerf is completely unjustified. This way the AFK is going to play more like a medium tank, but with that bad dpm it won't be competetive at all. And I have the feeling that WG hates light tanks anyway, just look how weak all of the tier X light tanks are. They are all completely useless, except for the EBR.
@@robinkhn2547 But its armor WAS useless as it went against higher tier tanks.
As a German, it's really funny to hear the word Aufklärungspanzer-Panther from QB. : D
i used to have the auf panzer panther and i absolutely loved it mostly because it was fast and accurate (really accurate) but the fact they nerfed everything...now it’s only a worse version of the VK.28.01
Finally after ALL THIS YEARS he finally hits his mic by accident finally this man was professional way TOO LONG xd
TAKE THAT MIC
I have been missing this tank so much I LOVE IT I really hope this is the reward omgggg
Drink a beer each time Quicky says the tank name
Your pronunciation of the Aufklärungs Panther is fine QB.
I played this as a tech tree tank.. Hated it as a scout, hated it as a sniper, don't believe in spamming gold, but when you just rofl-stomp any other LT in the game with a ram. Man, do I miss it.
This year's well-deserved award is the M24E2 Super Chaffee
You mean how they gave everyone easy access to the low tier reward tanks, making our years of playing/collecting pointless? At least there are a few rewards players have to actually wait to get.
This tank has to see a lot of OP pay2win tier 8s, this thing seems like shit.
It was called the awful panther back in the day back when it had a god tier fire rate, destroying the tanks identity but giving it slightly better matchmaking will kill this tank. I have it on console and it’s literally my favorite tank in the game.
I didnt remember this tank until you said Awful Panther and i was like "oh yeah that piece of shit"
WG: So, how's our planned well-deserved reward tank for this year?
Supertesters: Well, it's far worse than before in comparison and yet the game has moved on since, as in most other tanks have become a lot stronger and so forth?
WG: Into the game the tank goes then, thanks guys!
Loved this tank back in the day i was so sad when they took it out. Itll be awesome if they bring it back. I really hope they do!
very happy to hear this! :)
Wow ! Once again (not often) I totally agree with Quicky on a tank :) Started playin 6+ years ago and then the two most fun tanks in my garage were the ELC with real 90mm @ tier 5 and the Awful-Panther @ tier 7 !!! Their both gone and oddly my fav now is the Evil 90 @ tier 8 and the Luchs @ tier 4 which isnt real seal clubbing .....lol
That was one of my favorite "lights"
I bloody loved the Aufklärungspanzer Panther, never forgave WG for removing it
these uploads are really nice,
especially being bored in class. although the AFK panther doesn't seem that good with its reload and dmg
I always wanted that tank back. I liked it when I saw it on the battle field, never got the chance to drive it myself.
As for the new stats go...well, for me, I am not a fan of the fire rate nerf, other nerfs, I can live with though.
Thanks QB.
I quit grinding normal tanks because WG has given me so many premium vehicles that I'm having a hard time just getting all the crews trained up! I play my favorites every day to get through the daily missions and then use each of the newer premiums to give them some more XP.
It looks like the Panzer V/IV but without the spaced armour on the turret and the mini sideskirts
thats all well and good but, what date are we going to be receiving the rewards and will we be getting the same sort of stuff as last year (aka - the couple of thousand bonds and millions of credits)?
That lt bounced my fv215b 183 once, I was so pissed
Introducing the Rammingpanzer Panther a t7 premium light tank !!!
The daily videos are really appreciated!!
Well, I was hoping for the derp gun.
I remember the day I rammed a t59 i this thing. At full speed down a hill managed to caught him in side and rammes him for his full hp. I loved it and its rof made me prema tracking a opponent felt soo good. Sad to see its rof murdering and its weight reduction.
Commander's vision system isn't even available on tier 7 tanks and lower as far as I know
The DPM nerf I feel would be sufficient I wish they would keep the speed weight and view range, I don’t think it would be OP. After that travesty of a tier 6 light we got for the 10 year celebration they could give us something good this time
i was expecting the ELC AMX (the old version of the AMX ELC Bis)
Everyone: expects Super Chaffee
QB: I feel it will be AFK Panther, and if not I will be sad.
Me:oh no QB will be sad and his fans disappointed
I for my part QuickyBaby enjoyed the Aufklärungspanther back in the days of it being a tech tree scout. It was a special and agile tank. Since no one really thought it to be good no one also bothered to be carefull once one popped up in the match list. And yeah.... That carnage you could unleash by tackling the other lights straight in the sides or rear XD And if you needed to soften up a tank your DpM was more than capable of doing the job. The only issue i had was the size of the tank. A big lass that one :o But hey: Risk it for the biscuit i suppose :) I always love the more underdog tanks in WoT like the T69 and the Aufklärungspanther instead of the more mainstream tanks like the Object 257 or TDs like the ISU-152 who pack a punch like a horse dick but are moody as hell itself XP
Sorry to disappoint you, Will. This probably won't be this year's well deserved reward. We all know it is going to be the SuperChafee.
Gun looks like good ol' Könisch from VK 36.01H, that is why it doesn't use HE
We get a shiny new garage slot for Christmas. That's our well deserved reward.
I would sure love to have this thing. I’d think I’ve been around long enough to get it. I remember wanting it before it got removed.
