The German Tiger heavy tank is infamous for being a tough vehicle, especially in War Thunder. So what if you it and made it even beefier? The Panzerbefehlswagen VI P (Pz.Bef.Wg.VI P) is a modified version of Ferdinand Porsche's heavy tank design. It has an electric transmission and double the frontal armor of its tech tree counterpart. It used to be a higher battle rating but Gaijin lowered it to 5.7. It's a fun tank, but working with less-than-stellar teammates can be frustrating.

Bro this is the perfect tank for the average tiger player who doesn't even try to angle.
bro everyone's heard this joke over a thousand times its stale
Wait, that was a joke?
Ignore those unmotivated fools. A joke is a joke and that was a nice one.
T-34 85mm HE: 🤠
I swear when I see the Porsche Tiger the player is angling it… they got their Tigers backwards.
I love how he says not to angle at the start...and continuous to angle in every encounter or worse, approach them sideways.
true
muscle memory
When I got the IS-1 and IS-2 I was so used to angling in the KVs that I just kept doing it for a few games
He did it with the b1 ter, and wondered why he had horrible penetration. He wasn’t using the main gun of the tank, the hull gun is a larger caliber than the turret gun, in the b1 ter’s case.
@@gipsydangeramericasmonster9632 On top of that, he called the Skink, one of the best low tier SPAAs bad despite not even spading it first and literally using stock ammo. That was the day when I realized Spookston's opinions don't matter much.
"Where's my team?"
The most quoted phrase in WT
Along with "how did that not pen?!", "skill issue", and "fuck you cas"
@@sauce2611 dont forget "RUSSIAN FUCKING BIAS"
@@sauce2611 honestly. starting engine fires might be my favourite thing ever in war thunder. cas goated
I was looking through the comments at the end of the video and as I read that that, spookston said it
@@MrWeenuk21 You're horrible! You're an irredeemable monster!!!!!
They actually only used one of these as a command tank. The rest were all turned into Ferdinands.
Or used as training vehicles as far as I know
From what I've seen. With the exception of 1 command tank, and a few recovery vehicles. All got turned into Ferdinands
its also not really like they wanted to use it, more that Porsche decided that he was gonna win the trial anyways and had already produced several hundred hulls that they were now stuck with
@@YouSietse Porsche didn't decide anything, he got a full contract from the Waffenamt for a 101 vehicles which matches perfectly with 1 prototype, 10 troop training vehicles and then enough vehicles to equip 2 heav tank battalions of 45 each.
And that didn't really help the vehicle really did it now.
Whenever I faced this thing as the US in a 76mm anything, I faced the same mental gymnastics as a Tiger H1 player shooting at a Jumbo Sherman.
cant you still kill the jumbo with the tiger? i dont get it
@@MrWeenuk21 machine gun port for the Jumbo and cupola for the Tiger.
@@cqpp i main Germany and whenever I get put against Germany i usually get several cupola kills every game due to me getting killed by cupola
@@NotGrimman yeah that's what I do asw, especially in tournaments. The 76 shermans and t-34 85 is absolutely great for this.
@@cqppits much easier to just brawl with the jumbo and shoot panthers and tigers in their turret cheeks with the apcr. usually takes 1 shot on each side to kill one
Oh my god I'm laughing so hard at these intros please never change them
@removethatpfp usubhhumanssackoffshiitbbittcchh yeah
the last time i played 5.7 germany, i got 15 kills, i was the only german on a russian, italian, swedish team, it was so nice, my flanks were covered, AA did its job, and people scouted and called out positions
Amazing that the reason it went so well was because lack of German mains lol
The last time I played 5.7 Italy, I got 3 assists because my only teammates are German.
This match was an absolute blowout BTW, my next match was against the Germans and my team then got ROFLStomped by said German team.
@@that1connor583 once in a lifetime
@@andrewmacias-brown1818 this was yesterday. And the day before. And last week.
This is far too common.
@@that1connor583 so you are saying they are amazing teams? Lol idk I have really bad win rates but kills and stats are great. American and Russian teams are usually stronger
Great take. Bushes are P2W. You can cover up a tank and completely break up its silhouette so that the enemies don’t even know what they’re shooting at. That’s clearly an advantage.
Exactly, and if you're part of the old guard when bushes were released. You could get a 12 pack of large and small bushes, 6 each. It's crazy now how they broke it up so you can only have 1 of each with the new bushes.
I love these gameplay videos. Hearing Spookston laughing at the situation and his own joke is fun
"I am currently losing my sanity" and other gems
@@reinbeers5322 "This game broke me on a daily basic" is my favorite
There's a movie about the guy that went to Alaska and died, called Into The Wild, his story is wild and i'm glad Spookston knew about him too. It wasn't confirmed what killed him, but the popular theory was he ate poisonous seeds (not potatoes) and he either got paralyzed by the poison and died of starvation or he died from the poison.
The seeds he ate were from a plant called "wild potato", so Spook isn't that far off. The poison weakened and paralyzed him because he was starving, which weakened his body.
@@thenumbah1birdman Fun Fact: Potatoes are in the Nightshade family, known for being poisonous!
@@erictheepic5019 That's tomatoes. Nightshades are a fruiting plant/shrub/tree, not a tuber.
I thought he died from “rabbit starvation”? He was mostly living off of small game like squirrels and rabbits, so no matter how much he ate, his body would just not process it at all after awhile because the meat was too lean.
@@Smetrix that's the other issue. His diet was not good to begin with and he was malnourished and starving. This meant that he was vulnerable to the toxic enzyme in the seeds of the "potato".
Spook you probably get this a lot but your content is legit entertaining when you're just having fun playing the game
How does he get 5k? Premium sl bonus?
As a German Player, I too feel your pain in having lack of teammates and having to deal with the most blind and stupid people ever. : /
I just play this game with friends now, props to you as a C.C for being abke to shoulder this alone for footage. I really liked your Oddbawz video a while back.
Never in any game have I seen such braindead teammates than playing Germany in WT
@@pablolarrain385 Seriously, it’s the bane of my existence. I get eight to fourteen kills in a match, but somehow. WE ARE STILL FUCKING LOSING. Never trust a German player to get shit done. Ever. : /
Try US GRB 7.3 :D dropped from over 60% win rate @6.7 to under 40% winrate @7.3 while still performing better (better k/d, more caps, repairs, assists)
Yeah, while grinding the Sturmtiger event, I went down to 5.3-5.7 Germany because I thought it would be fun.
It was not fun.
German teams at that BR are so egregiously smoothbrained, you’d think they were bred in a laboratory to find out how stupid humans can get before they choke on their own spit.
@@BoarhideGaming I think its fun, plenty of meat shields to drive around obliviously while you're just farming people who think you're just another braindead german player. People will call you a hacker if you're even slightly above average.
Besides that jape, I regularly play germany 6.7 and I rarely have a problem with dumb teammates. Maybe they all get sent to my games and there just aren't any more left for you xd
I've been keeping a steady 57% winrate for over a year now playing mostly germany 6.7
The thing I love about the Porsche Tiger is that it can effectively fight IS-2s because most of them see the tiger turret and they just shoot center mass and non-pen the 204mm of armor, sometimes the 122 doesn't even fuse on the commander's cupola
You getting surrounded because the team is sitting in the back is so relatable it's the most infiuriating thing in this game
People don’t want to push, die from a sniper in a great vantage point (cas doesn’t go after them because bombing spawn is easier) and then have to pay the repair cost.
@G. Williams yeah they are too scared to die where they could cover the repair cost by helping teammates going for caps I see this in top tier and it's insane how can people be still garbage after grinding for so long
Lmao, helping teammates is never gonna cover SL repair cost, the only way to do that is to get like 4 kills and not die or get 2 caps by yourself because gaijin are masters at discouraging teamwork, the German tanks are specially shit for getting kills from up close, so you get entire teams of people who don't want to pay repairs and stay sniping out of spawn because most maps are urban as fuck.
@Haxler that's a skill issue you can get those kills by killing ennemies focusing teammates and if you know the strength of your tank things are easier there are so many tiger players for example who don't know the concept of angling the armor
The Porshe Tiger was my first premium tank and i do not regret it one bit. Every now and again I bring it out to relive the glory days.
Porsche *
@@EddieFly00 too late to change it now f
@@HEATSEEKR is the armour good at its BR do u bounce a lot of shells?
@@MrPhoenixWT the only two problems that I have with it is that you cant angle it and the turret neck is taller than the other tiger tanks which can lead to shot traps.
@@HEATSEEKR do u think it performs better in its BR in terms for noob friendly instead of sumoua as it is same price? Sorry for a lot of questions lol
Part 9 of asking for 76 jumbo
Ok, but... M-51 Israeli Sherman
@@TheDragonGamerTV M 51 Palestinian Sherman
T-34 Calliope would be a good one I feel like
Don’t ask, no one likes it except for people who don’t have the self respect and play it
Spookston, I appreciate that you're one of the few WT youtubers that refuse to abuse bushes and call it what it is, shameful. Keep up with the good content.
I mean, do whatever you feel is “honorable” at the end of the day, it’s a game. If I can use something so that I don’t get shot in a weak spot for the 10th time, that’s what I’m gonna do lmao.
Y’all act like clowns thinking you’re worth something just because you don’t use bushes
@@ConnerV cope
@@ConnerV unfortunately they have to keep "coping things in the game. Down tier stuff for "casual" players to keep up.
@@ConnerV I may be a scrub but stuff like abusing bushes and spawncamping actively detracts from the game experience for everyone.
I like the aesthetic of foliage on tanks, but I refuse to use them in game, they feel dirty
What about putting them on the top of your turret your your tank can have some hair?
It is historically accurate
Love the intro
Love the gameplay! love the commentary and all the sound effects you put into the video. Keep up the great videos!
This just might be my favorite tank. The 280g TNT equivalent filler APHE is glorious and unlike the regular Tiger you can actually rely on the armor more than not. You can even peek a corner at a slight angle just enough to get the barrel clear while still hiding the weak cheek.
Churchill VII pls
The "I can't pen you. But guess what, you can't pen me either" tank
Compared to your older videos (rambling and gameplay) your new style is hilarious
Nice gameplay combined with funny commentary and memes
I love it!
"I don't feel like working out today, maybe tomorrow." What I say to myself every day
Oh cool a fake spookston is attempting to scam me
Among across that many Shermans is probably the most historically accurate thing in a game ever. Now you know how it feels to be a German tank commander in 1944-45
I wouldn’t say so, 90% of the tank kills on allied sides in the western front were Canadian and British encounters, not so many shermans
When Ferdinand Porshe lost the Bid to Heikel, there was a Poroblem...
About 90 of em.
This is by far my favourite German heavy tank, makes me feel like I'm in my IS-1 having such a weird armor scheme and good reverse speed, I laugh every time someone shoots off my barrel and I reverse out of sight immediately with the enemy just looking confused
These have become very entertaining. You have a nack for good gameplay and comedic commentary
Id love to see a video dedicated to (tank) maps, maybe a ranking of the worst or best designed would be great!
Spookston do a vid on the IS-4M, its only fair you talk about the other old king of ground rb since you've covered the Maus plenty already.
00
I really like the cat clips you insert sometimes! They're great :D
You posting a video puts a smile of my face. Thank you
Spook: “Hey, not a bad match”
11 kills
Me who has trouble getting more than 5 on a normal basis “ah yes not a bad match”
That moment Porsche was so confident he got them to build 100 hulls before it was even tested.
Id love to see you play the AML-90 as its one of my favorite tanks, The fast speed and amazing gun just makes it so fun to play.
Great video!
Also that Billy and Mandy part, as well as the metric ton of shermans was pretty funny. ^^
They recently improved the mobility of the Porsche based tanks in game! Hence the better mobility!
I'd be glad to see Obj 268. I've tried it not long ago and the thing turned out to be really fun when not uptiered. Its surprisingly extremely tanky in 6.7 battles, and high velocity 152mm cannon using APHE is just obliterating everything. Plus, for its size and amount of armor its not as slow as you would expect it to be
The object 268 and ISU-122-54 are god tier casemates. Way better than the german ones. Though i guess nobody uses them due to all the shit before them. (su-85m is good to). Having over q KG of explosive filler is awsome in an APHE too. And the 14.5mm is insane. It can actually pen the m41s turret and kill the gunner. Iv killed 3 or 4 m41s that way. And ofc is great for killing planes going for a bombing run.
Its really great on squadron battle too (at B.R 6.7). Tiger II (H) will struggle to kill you, the only thing that can pen you from the front is some light tank with HEAT-FS or APDS. Pople rarely use light tank in squadron battle because it's very risky, once you get spotted by an enemy, then you will be strafed by their plane.
god his sound mod sounds so GOOD DUDE
A very dangerous tank indeed, well played it is even more and deadly with a good team
You should play the 2.3 Russian T-80, it has the mobility of a German super heavy, a turret that takes a full hour to rotate 90°, the armor of a truck, and a gun that is almost as good as a .50 cal. The pinnacle of Russian engineering!
It was assigned to the tank company that had the Ferdinands, as the command tank.
My favorite ww2 German tank. It was very unreliable, but innovative,
Innovative in ways to commit Seppoku while not being japanese
@@nahuelleandroarroyo so innovative, that the only other nation on earth to test this system was the greatest economy on earth and they didn't implement it either
Incredible Intro
I Love how The CV Version has Better Reverse
Fitting
i think the humor is a good addition to your content :)
Hey i have glitch that as soon as I go in a game it gets stuck on the help page where the tips are given??
I also lost 25k sl for friendly fire but I had shot at the Mig21 which crashed
These bugs have starter after patch 4.76
I love its gun noise, its different from the Tiger H1 I believe.
Is it? It shouldn't be, it's the exact same gun
@@CrazyDutchguys he has an audio pack it’s not just the tiger
@@CrazyDutchguys I know its the exact same gun as both were competing prototypes. ill check this afternoon.
The reason why the Ferdinand and the tiger Porsche actually feel very mobile is bc they use electric engines. Despite being 1940s electric engines, even if the vehicles are underpowered, electric engines are actually more powerful “per horsepower”.
I love the sounds
I swear this is the one German rank I fear while playing the IS 2 cuz it’s the only tank I have to aim a little bit on cuz that front plate has eaten my shells a few too many times for comfort
Lower plate exists my friend
@@farrel2114 but that requires me too aim, and that’s the thing I try avoid when playing the IS 2
@@mbgaming1017 flank it, you can outflank it even with IS-2 because the turret rotation is very bad. Also the mobility is worse than the regular Tiger I.
Good player on an undertiered silly tank be like
8:24 spookston momentarily becomes thanos for some reason
Gotta love the high pitched bang it makes when shooting
I think it's bad when a game you would be proud of is disappointing and annoying for someone else, lmao.
This is one of my faves (I use bushes, idc) but surprisingly and seemingly half of the people on the war thunder subreddit labels this tank as their worst tank they bought.
Great video keep up the good work.
Can you do the SU100Y
That reverse speed is awesome. I usually play World of Tanks but having fast reverse is awesome especially during a hull down fight.
8:50 This makes me feel so much pain. If I had a nickel for every time a German player bumped into me from behind because they have tunnel vision, I'd own every premium and event vehicle in the game.
This video came up in my suggested videos feed but I still haven't gotten the notification for being subbed.
This is my favourite tank in the game for some reason rofl ty for the content! cheers
Hey spookston I've been enjoying the gameplay videos. My suggestion for a vehicle is the tech tree amx 50 surbaisse
Potential history made a great video on this tank, highly recommend.
I don't have this tank but I do have the base model Tiger P which is my favourite tank both in game and irl despite it's "quirks" (being terrible). On one hand, it doesn't have the improved frontal armour but it is at 5.3 instead of 5.7 and is several tons higher and has a higher top speed in both forwards and reverse.
Did not expect a reference to Chris McCandless in a Spookston video but nice
the intros keep getting better
I’d be interested to see you play the PTZ89, basically a high tier doom cannon
Reminds me of when I was working through the Russian tech tree and I was in a t34 and there was 4 Porsche Tigers wiping out the team and slowly advancing on our teams spawn
They were so cool I wish I had the footage of the battle watching them just slowly and seemingly calmly watching each other’s backs and crushing the opposition
Awe inspiring sadly I’ve never been able to find them on my team or face them again in battle
Thanks Spookston for the trip down memory lane 😊
Oh and maybe you’ve done so already but have you used the German M47?
It’s price is ludicrous but I got a test drive for it once quite a while ago and it was somewhat fun to play
i bought this one with the anniversary event, and i can say it is insanely good
I haven’t seen someone use the Leclercs in a while. I feel that’d be a cool video
Great video
"Got to remember not to Angie my armour"
Proceeds to angle his armour in every clip
Reason this was sent to the front was to act as a command vehicle for the 653rd heavy Tank destroyer battalion, one of the units using the Ferdinand, giving them some parts commonality
Nice video, can you play with the Sarc tank next?
Not only that it was converted into one of the most heaviest tank destroyers out there and still had the mechanical issues
When you got bumped and your shot chance tossed, the immediate high emotion, is a mood 👌 🙌 😄
That hellcat player XD I mean I've heard of friendly artillery killings but bugger me that's a new one for me XD
Damn I got mentioned! Glad to see this tank getting some love!
Hey Spookston, I would appreciate if you could play Sho't Kal Dalet. Pretty fun tank to play imo. Great video as always.
Next to the leo2A4 (123) this thing is by far my fav premium tank.
More videos like this. I have a better time watching someone enjoy themselves than giving a lecture
You should try using the VFW. It’s an amazing glass cannon. Great reload and is amazing at 5.7.
I'll be honst, Spookston seems like a really nice guy to talk to outside of videos or games
You should use the Early heat slinging PT-76B, it's been a favorite since I spaded it.
Please play the Alecto I, it seems so damn goofy. Saw it for the first time today and immediately fell in love.
What I would like is the ability to test drive any vehicle You want either being researched or not. They already give us the option for Premium vehicles or the next vehicle you are researching in a Tech tree.
You should play it's worse cousin, the Pz.Bef.Wg.IV J it's so bad I love it
The sound of the gun is too good haha.
I would love to see some Crusader ‘The Saint’ gameplay because that tank is epic
That Tiger I randomly drowning is so relatable, same as the whole team dying in like 2 minutes
Still available, a friend bought it for me on my birthday a little while back
Video topic: Carefully spectating teammates, they're fascinating creatures
Dude, freaking generals music and a Grim Adventures reference?
Have a subscribe.
are you ok? your happiness level is just going up and down the hole video
You should play the Conqueror Mk2. Because it is the Conqueror Mk2. Keep up the good content!!
How this guy just casually drop nukes like it’s no big deal
I would really like to see a t64A video. I have been using that and the t64b to get a t72 and its reverse makes me laugh every time.
Pather running into spookton, welp time to add that to his driving Ed idea!
The amount of times this dude had skill issues is insane new record for that for sure
You should do the M48 Super, it can be surprisingly good.
I've always wanted to get this tank
The reverse speed is also a good counter for some cas situations where the cas player has pretty good aim
If ur moving in either direction ( especially if ur expecting a bomb)and the bomb is dropped where u would be, with a long enough delay, you can start in the opposite direction and get far enough for ur armor to save u even from the biggest of bombs
Usually TDs also have good reverse speed but are open top or have paper armor so death no matter
