Who would've guessed that a "Recon vehicle armed with a 20mm anti-tank cannon" was good at taking out tanks. Why Gaijin made it an SPAA is beyond me. Give it all of the historical features, including it's stab and APDS, and put it up to 7.3 together with the other R3 as a light tank
@@atomic4440 its not removed. You can see the STAB in game. It's just that it got nerfed (like thats gonna change anything.) But im all for putting the r3 where its SUPPOSED to be, and given the light tank designation, and its APDS round.

The R3 actually had a fully built and tested prototype. It was not a mock up. But that being said, yeah, it is silly having an armoured recon vehicle built in the 1980s, that is faster than any other vehicle in the game, and equipped with a stabilised autocannon, thrown into 4.3 (originally 3.3) fighting nothing but World War 2 tanks. This thing should have been placed at 7.0 at least.
@@thethyphoon. Maybe if its attributes were left as is, and it's current vehicle class is maintained, then sure, but if this vehicle was given scouting, it would fit in very well at 7.0. It's one of the fastest vehicles in the game, and only comes close to matching other vehicle around that BR. Also historically, the R3 T20 was a "reconnaissance vehicle", which is by definition a vehicle made for scouting. I want the R3 to play the way it was designed to be, that being a reconnaissance vehicle, but Gaijin instead decided to make this weird pseudo-SPAA meme car from the future that functions more like a speedy tank destroyer than an actual SPAA, and nothing like it was originally designed to be.
Casual Historian: “Italy’s military was stupid during WW2.” Italy in War Thunder: “You want stupid? Well now you’re gonna get it!” *spams 4x4 vehicles*
R3 was "balanced" for unskilled scrubs to 4.7 BR and people still complaining in chat about how OP it is. It's hillarious! People who can't handle of being flanked should consider ARCADE MODE. It seems every vehicle who does that is too strong for them.
Oh, yeah, let's have a 80's afv fight vehicles that have been obsolete for almost half a century by the point of its introduction. What could possibly go wrong?
Weird, when i play it and get ambushed by tanks while hunting planes the gun never pens, not even when shooting open topped spg's in the rear. Is there any way to penetrate tanks like in this video? Because boy i get salty when im murdered by a bunch of t-34 while looking up for planes like a dumbass
Do 34s ambush you in close quarters? If so, you might want to decrease your engine volume and increase other players' engine volume in settings. If they get you from far away - try to stay away from obvious hiding spots, use your mobility to get to unexpected places (I've been killed a lot by R3s and EBRs hiding in plain sight behind a pile of rubble, behind a bush, behind some rock high on the hill etc). In general, getting higher than your opponents' visibility cones can reach is an easy way to get kills. If you want to hunt tanks - stick to areas of dense vegetation to stay away from planes, you might also want to stay in shadow of buildings (I've destroyed other tanks and been destroyed myself this way, you can hide a panther in a sufficiently large shadow), although this works only on not-so-vigilant players.
best vehicle in the entire game, its the only one i enjoy and i dont get stressed when i die because i know im the actual devil. best part is when you kill heavy tanks, nothing more satisfactory than a dead kv1.
Unlocked this thing couple of days ago. For the first I’m actually having fun in this game. Though it gets pretty boring after a while, time to grind Sweden I guess
War of Thunder basically turns into a point-and-click adventure game when you play as the R3. You just have to find a bush or a street corner and ambush unsuspecting players.
@@emmanuelchavez7748 Nah. Anyone of these guys could have been killed faster with a good medium tank at 4.3. Ive never seen an R3 go on a game long streak like a solid medium can. Theyll get a few kills on unaware players, then get swatted. Shitters complaining about something fast and annoying, much like when the M18 was introduced.
Im surprised everyone isnt yelling at munitions lol when i play my r3 everyone shoots at me and tries to push me outta cover and drives infront of me on purpose. I guess its all they can do to slow down the awesomeness that is the r3. The hate sustains me 😎
@@arya31ful no i mean my teammates try to push me outta cover if i hide for a quick sec for reload or crewreplenish or something behind cover. I said "tried"
@@psicho9217 Now tha's just bad sport. I understand a lot of player's sentiment towards R3 T20, but actively hindering your own teammates from contributing is also "cancerous" by itself. tbh i didn't use R3 that much because my PC always hiccuped when i go way too fast on it.
Everyone likes to exaggerate how good this thing is, it’s penetration has been nerfed to the ground. It never had to go through these things. If you fools that didn’t even try playing with the damn thing keep on telling it’s op, check the maps munitions plays in. He gets an average of 1.2-1.3 kills every match. Don’t forget that munitions is way above the average player. Almost every kill he gets, he gets it in a different map, meaning he got them in a different game. He probably died a lot too, he wouldn’t put those in because the video is supposed to be criticizing gaijin like everyone else already isn’t. “Ohhh this thing can kill leopards!” Yeah, it can, because modern mbts have very different armor configurations compared to the past. Try the IS-3 for example, it can’t pen it. Saying this vehicle is overpowered won’t fix shit and you all know it. Don’t be so similar to everyone else. Don’t be sayin somethin cause everyone else is sayin it. R3 isn’t anything near OP in its current state. Learn gaijins technique first. They buff a vehicle to heaven so everyone starts grinding for it and nerf it to the ground in a few months. Please don’t act like a braindead, question what you’re agreeing with.
While I agree on the R3 T20 not being able to kill heavies and cold war mediums, you can still murk enemy tanks if you aim at the right pressure point. And if you're destined to die anyways, take out the enemy's tracks or barrel, and make them your team's ez prey. Remember that it's a lovely day and that you'll be shiny and chrome.
Well done, you cured your depression by giving others depression. Hopefully you are proud of yourself.

You can not create or destroy depression, you can only transfer it to others and vice versa.

Yes, this is a joke. I don't use the R3
This thing can even kill top tier MBT such as T90 and Leo2A6 up close.
What to expect from MBT side armor tho
Pretty sure both of those have more than 55mm side armour with the skirts, but I don't doubt they gaijin finds a way...

Depends on the ammo type, look at the pen values of the ammo when you choose it

Should i grind it and become what peopel hate im still rank one but also a 8.3 top br
Is a like a yes?
One mans depression is another mans amusement
This shit gives me depression
Depression can't be created or removed. It can only be transfered from one to the other...
This thing was 3.3 and rank II when came if I am not mistaken, and had stabilizer and no reload at all lol
Jesus
they had to make you play italy somehow I guess
One of the worst things to encounter in War Thunder...
*The Italian R3*
"The italian r3" That implies there are more, oh god.
THE R3-T20 can also give you depression.
The 5.3 uptiers are the depression givers
deserved
This is what happens when a Cold War vehicle travels back in time.
i got bullied for like 3 games in a row by the same r3 and i get recommended this, i think its a sign.
what nation is that tank in (nice vid)
👍
he is passing the depression from himself to others
Boy i sure do love playing as modern vehicle against ww2 tanks
love the sound editting
The only thing that can cure depression better than playing the R3 is nuking it with a 152mm HE round
Removes YOUR depression but gives OTHERS depression
R3 is perfect way to deal with EBRs, fight cancer with cancer.
ah yes, 1940's pz IV getting bullied by some '82 naval boi, lovin' it
Bro to top this off u should play the EBR next. Now that’s what u call double cancer
The only time it cures my depression is when I destroy the tank. Then it gives anxiety because it probably has a backup.
You know what's funny. People don't show the 250 games you've suffered through just to get a 2 min video.
That tiger 1 has a tunnel vision
