    I somehow had the mental fortitude to grind out the UK when there was only a single Chally 2, no South Africa, and no ADATS. Somehow I've managed to keep on top of having the tree completed (UGH). I'm convinced Gaijin has an unwritten rule stating that "Britain will never have its moment in the sun". Even the air tree tends to be viciously underwhelming considering the pedigree. Yet, the biggest shocker of them all is that the Royal Navy is woefully impotent (for the most part)- that's just bloody rude lol.

      Funniest thing is British get nefted from how well we are doing because the people who consistently play British Ground RB are the only one who were willing enough to learn the mechanics and capitalise on it. the Lynx's manification is nefted because they wanted to sell Rooivalk. AH Mk. 1 and other variants are missing their IRCM and IR shields but those modifications exist in Russian KA-52 and Mi-28NM. Starstreak is supposed to reach Mach 3 and not have a cap of Mach 1 on speed. Chally 2's manlet is poorly modeled in which results in less protection.

    1:22:05 I am a warrior gunner IRL and I can tell you that it could be so much worse.
    If you fire all 6 rounds you have to do a complete unload and reload which takes over 30 seconds to do, you have to fire 3 rounds, insert a new clip, rinse and repeat. If you fire 4 rounds and load a new clip you have a gap in feed and the 30 second reload starts again.
    The none stabilised gun irl is worthless on the move, you may as well strap the cannon to a speed boat, you’d have about the same accuracy. What’s funny is that it actually has a stabilised sight but you can only use it in “surveillance mode” it’s just a big fat tease

    99% of the time the British tanks aren't actually that bad, it's just the map design and the massive amount of "overtiering" that occurs in the tech trees that makes them look awful. I find it hilarious that guns that were designed to eat WW2 German and later Cold War Russian tanks were nerfed because they were doing exactly that. I take great satisfaction in having obtained nukes in several of the tech tree vehicles because of how rough Britain gets it, my first nuke was in the Ratel 90 on Mozdok ffs xD

    I love British tanks. I also think shell shatter was only supposed to be for Britain (because of Gaijin's long tradition of shafting the British tech tree) and realized it would be a little bit too obvious that something sus happened between a devastating wife and a random Brit.
    TLDR: Shell shatter is a mechanic put into the game to fuck Britain running but affected some other tech trees too.

    The British tech tree used to be the tech tree for skilled players bored doing well with Americans, Germans, and Russians counterparts. Personally, I love the British tech tree out of heritage and self-loathing. Highlights that I adore are the Daimler gun-go cart, the Crusader III, the Cromwells, the Sherman Fireflies, the Comet I, the Charioteer VII, and the Centurions (yes, even the Mark I). Basically, the cruisers with a few long-range sniping outliers here and there. Favorite support CAS includes the Swordfish (for the memes), the Mosquito FB Mk XVIIIe (speedy flying 6-pounder go brrrr), the premium Thunderbolt, the Wyvern, the Spitfires, and the Hornet Mk. III (last two for exclusively anti-CAS/Counter-air). Give it a try if you want to hone the skills picked up in other tech trees, it’ll make you a more proficient player.

      I started with the British Tech tree when I started playing a year and a half ago, been enjoying it, despite the tanks that should be good being shafted by the way the game has been built. I started playing some other tech trees when my crews are locked, and bloody hell, aces every other game. I can play aggressively too, as opposed to having to react to the enemies like in the British tech tree, others get to dictate the flow of a match.

    • @dr1Voss48
      @dr1Voss48 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@agiliteka I think it does make you a better player when you become proficient with British tanks then move on to other tech trees.
      - High penetration but relatively low post-pen damage guns/rounds force you to become something of a sharpshooter for critical components.
      - You learn to adapt better to terrain because of the common mobility limitations in the tree.
      - You learn to rely on positioning rather than armor because of the lackluster protection in most British tanks.
      - Nifty cruisers like Crusaders, Cromwells, and Comets accommodate the need for speed in the shoot-and-scoot lads.
      - Excellent Close Air Support options (Typhoons, Wyvern, early Mossie, Spits for counter CAS, etc.) to help mitigate costs.
      Main-lining the British tech tree is like training with wooden weapons that are twice the weight of their steel counterparts. Sure, it can be wonky and frustrating and may even cause unintentional injury but it betters the player. It embodies the “plucky Brit” sort of character that seems to permeate British military history. Despite its shortcomings, it’s my favorite tech tree by far.

    When you learn how to use the Archer its actually amazing, played defensively its a neat tank destroyer that unlike any other British tank can actually escape superior enemy forces without having to turn around first since its already set to drive in the direction awa from the enemy.
    And IRL it was actually quite noted for this ability by its crews, who appreciated being able to shoot and scoot away to the next defensive position rather than getting caught by the Panzers while turning around.
    Also I’ll defend the 3 inch gun carrier since its got stupendous amounts of armour with angling, so it absolutely chews up many of the light tanks that get spammed about in the 1.7-3.7 range

    After I recently started to grind all major tech trees, I must say that British rank 1 was overall the most enjoyable rank 1 for me. Compared to Russian and German rank 1, none of the British vehicles were frustrating to play and if I were to introduce somebody to Warthunder, I would start here to make sure they have decent first play experience.
    As for 1.0 SPAA I must disagree here. It has very nice mobility, gun traverse speed and firerate with good sized magazine. Compared to other starting AAs, this was very pleasant SPAA to play with. Only downside are small caliber guns, so its unusable against most ground vehicles.

    Fun fact, the Polish Firefly actually isn't a carbon copy of the tech tree Firefly.
    Unlike the tech tree version, the Polish tank uses the standard non-lengthened Sherman hull and the old radial engine as opposed to the famous 5 welded-together bus engines.
    In theory this should make the Polish Firefly a bit slower, but since they didn't have to extend the hull it's also a lot lighter, resulting in a power/weight ratio that's ever so slightly better than the tech tree Firefly, at the cost of more recoil.

    Britain is by no means a bad tree, but it's greatly held back by nerfing and overtiering from gaijin. They claim it's because if stats that we're not allowed access to, but the reason the stats are so high for British vehicles is because the only people who stick with them are the maniacs willing to fight an uphill battle. If they were properly balanced on capability it would bring more players into the tree and lower the overall skill level of British mains, same as when they release a high tier premium it bombs win rates regardless of how good it is. More players means more casuals.

Only early Tech tree that has better rounds is the Swedish tech tree. The APCR rounds in rank 1 to 3 are amazing.

    1:17:20 Fun fact: the Olifant Mk2 is in fact not the last centurion, as the TTD is surprisingly based on the Olifant, and therefore by extension based on the Centurion.
    Very accurate representation of the British TT though: pain, with a few good bits.

    Minor correction on the Tetrarch; it was designed as a successor to the Light Tank Mk VI, and was intended to solve the problem of previous light tanks only having machine guns. Unfortunately, the War Office didn't think that was actually a problem, and so trialled it for use as a "light cruiser", and it lost to the A13 Mk I - which was both already in production, and had been designed according to the light cruiser requirements (unlike the Tetrarch). Someone took pity, though, and a small number of the tanks were built as Light Tank Mk VII Tetrarch (A17), and they were actually issued to units that had lost most/all of their A13s in France at or before Dunkirk.

    Just started playing recently, put maybe 20h in, all Britain, no premiums. I wouldn't call it fun, but it can sometimes resemble fun in the right match.
    That being said, I feel a great sense of tranquility when I play. Of course every US, German and Russian tank can one-shot me, and my solid shot does nothing. That's the game, apparently. No rage, no salt - I expect to get (at best) a neutral K/D. It's very zen. Can't get angry about losing if you never expected to win.
    Glad to hear that it only gets worse at the higher tiers. I thought 2.7 / 3.3 was bad, but apparently that's just a warm-up.

    I got the cent mk2 from the battle pass a while back and that kicked off me doing the British tree. I was not properly prepared for what I was going to be dealing with. I will say, I love the MK2, shell shatter and all. But BR 4.0 to 6.7 has been an existence of sorts. I think the rate of shell shatter is a bit overkill because I can shoot a Tiger2 in the same spot on the flat next to the gun and 40% of the time the shell shatters, while the rest punch through, seems to be arbitrary anymore. I do appreciate the video discussing the vehicles.

    I think its criminal to not mention that the Vickers Mk.1 has a monstrous 6.5 second reload, and a 5 second reload with an ace crew.
    That thing is an awesome urban brawler, with high speeds and a quick reload to compensate for low spall damage
    I also think the hulldown armour on the chieftains have not been done justice. Having practically impenetrable turret armour lets you peak with perfect confidence of being able to recieve hits.
    Also, Chieftain Mk.10 being at 9.0 actually gets it downtiered really often, since it can't meet 10.3 modern vehicles, while being able to bully 8.0 vehicles.

    The 1980s was one of the longest periods of Tory rule with not a single labour government. Not to mention the fact that MBT-80 probably the most famous cancelled british land vehicle was initiated in 1979 under Labour Jim Callaghan and cancelled under the Thatcher government. Not only did Thatcher slice apart the Royal Navy, she was also responsible for the privatisation of BAe and British shipbuilders and the subsequent collapse in manufacturing that followed.
    Now yes Labour have made many terrible defence decisions in the past, the most infamous being the 1966 defence white paper but also some incredible ones like the construction of the Queen Elizabeth class and Operation Journeyman, Jim Callaghans sucessful attempt to prevent an Argentine invasion of the Falklands. But so have the Torys, the 2010 white paper that crippled the navy for decades to come, Thatchers withdrawal of Falklands guard ships and attempted sale of half the navy to Argentina and of course the cancellation of MBT-80 and many other armoured vehicles in the 1980s.
    We can’t just blame Labour governments for bad defence decisions out of ignorance or carelessness becuase it doesnt send the right message or come across well at all. Messing up defence procurement is a Bipartisan British specialty that both Tory and Labour are responsible for.

We're a tier 1 manufacturing partner for the F-35, we developed the ASRAAM when other countries dropped out (though Germany did later create the IRIS-T as a result of their initial cooperation) and are paving the way for 6th generation aircraft with FCAS/GCAP/Tempest.
