The m18 is actually a hellcat and you can still see it with the name m18 hellcat in the garage, the jackson was called m36 slugger
@luketfer
2 жыл бұрын
Yup use to be M18 Hellcat and M36 Slugger. However the Slugger name has always been hotly contested as being possibly fictional and invented by model kit makers. Hence why it's now called the M36 Jackson. Even the Jackson is an unofficial name that nobody quite knows where it comes from (since it's named after a Civil War General most people think it's a British nickname for the vehicle which follows suit with the Grant, Lee, Sherman etc.).
THIS is the World of Tanks I miss, when I had loads of fun, when I was actually thinking about playing it all day, when it was exciting to learn more about the game. Sadly have moved on since the game changed too much…

Sadly I think the same game brought to current day would be a total mess. While there are some bad things that current WoT has (premium better than tech tree, stupid high tier meta), the old WoT was kinda "fun" because most people are still very clueless and just not really competitive about the game. A modern player would be mad when they are told to play pz 38 na meeting the old tier 9 IS-4 without sixth sense even existing, or playing stuffs like the old tier 3 meeting a KV with KV-2 turret and 107mm gun.

Its funny, how WoT has changed, how maps were added and discarded, new tanks and so on. Its funny to play on Xbox, because it includes all maps and tanks that has been or even aren't in the game yet. Having 3 tier 10 tanks in the line to superconqueror is only an example. Or premium obj. 268 v5 - obj. 268 with a turret. Uts fun to play dragon ridge, port or province. And many more. But importantly - THE WT AUF 100 IS THERE TOOOO.

KV1S was a terror raid boss on the battlefield for my t-34 back in the day, I think I had nightmares about it lol... Thanks for the trip down memory lane QB!
Aaah these old gun sounds... So better than today sounds, a lot more vivids and louder.
I wish you could do more of the classic tech tree tier 7-10 tank guides and how to play them ,the likes of Centurions and IS....ect since many features have been added. Great video though, loved it.😁😁
That was a Time we never forget

Man that cromwell in the first game was in a great mood
Time goes so fast i had one old account from 2012 and i dowloaded this game because of you i watched you play games before world of tanks i took many breaks from this game but still like to watch your videos
Thanks for this trip down memory lane QB...back in the day this was one of my fave tanks, nice to revisit just how Beast it used to be
My friend introduced me to this tank, loved it so much lol! The power of that alpha, the blasting gun sound, fast.. that tank was the king of tier 6
I still remember that day when I take out my brand new stock Tiger on Himmel and face IS-4 on tier 9 1v1. That nightmere still hunts me down to this date😂
I like hearing the more descriptive crew comments. "That's gotta hurt!" "We finish him off!" and "I Think that one went right through."
Gotta love the the classic WoT chat there in the first game he showed, I can only imagine the salt in the second match that Quick actually had to censor it.
Nice old video ;) Thank you! The sound in the first battle was so much better than it is today... It's just brutal...
This series is insane for the channel and specially for me, love the OG wot material, would love to see ELC AMX games plus some arty when it was good like M40/M43
It's been so long since I've watched or played this game. Thanks for the Nostalgia Quickybaby. I once used a Luchs to ram one of these off of a cliff into the ocean on the Cliff map. Those were fun times.
glad to see the "before it was nerfed" series making a comeback!
I remember some of the old mechanics and metrics of WOTs as I started playing in Nov. 2013 in my first account. We still had tier 1 playing against tier 10 tanks, which was challenging.
Oh man that's nostalgic. Also the phantom T-50-2 just teleporting everywhere.
Man watching these old KV-1S replays almost made me cry. God i miss those times
Quicky... this was awesome! need more of these "remember when..." videos.
The "Spicy Chat" was definitely "Spicy Baby" 🤣
Ohh Widepark... The church at the corner is in the town I live (Eger, Hungary)... Loved that...
I remember QB responding to my comment in 2015 talking about the KV-1S being one of his old favs.
Damn...this video is so nostalgic. Kv1s was my first tier VI vehicle and that was the only tank I played (literally every single day before and after school) back in the day before they nerfed it. Good old days...I played 3000 battles before they nerfed it and only a few battles after the nerf. I was so disappointed when I saw there's no KV1S in my garage anymore. KV1S you'll always be in my heart!!!! Thank you for this video QB, it brought some great happy memories.
I love these throwback Thursday history of WoT videos. More please!
when ever i hear these old soundeffects reminds me when i started playing the game in primary school
Pz IV with schmalturm and kv-1 with kv-2 turret. Those was my first credit makers ;)
I think this was the one single vehicle that made me fall in love with this game back in the days. :) Cheers QB! :) And by the way, a series about tanks before they got nerfed/removed is a great idea - WT E100, EBR 105, and I guess many others.
Seeing the PV 4 with the Darth Vader turret and long 75 is a massive throwback also, great video
I really wanted to see the chat on that second replay, and yes this tank was a nightmare to play against
Thanks for the memories. The KV-1S was a monster. So was the Type 59 -at 1st - roaming around in a wolfpack platoon of Type 59s was almost unfair. Also, shoutout to the Vk 36.01 when it was a medium -- that tank was also a beast.
Being in WOT since beta, I'm loving these trips down memory lane. Its amazing to see how this game has grown.
Happy to see him back to the series
Tank Company battles with the KV-1S, Hellcat and/or Cromwell. Some callers wanted a Grille and a T-50 to scout.
12:30 THE MEMORIES MY GOD I REMEMBER THAT THING WOULD POP UP AFTER THE BATTLE ENDS
Love seeing these old videos! I'd love to see a replay of the old T18 (?) tier 2 American TD at it's peak. The Marder 38T and the Hellcat during their prime!
The sound when you were firing💯
I miss the old school post game stats pop up after the battle. Brought back memories hearing that music that i completely forgot about
As originally a Beta player, thanks for the trip down memory lane! The 'remove speed governor' was added. Early games never used to have them. Earlier game also didn't have the crew skills such as 6th sense. The in-game chat comments are quite amusing let alone the cross chat back in the day stirring up the opposition 😂 I'd love Wargming to bring back these older patches, tanks and maps.
Great episode man
Another episode of a beautiful “Before…” series. Massive thank you)
I remember, we won a T6 tournament with these lol. The strat was just to stack these and hopefully have a decent plan.
Great video and memories QB! May I suggest: 1. The VK36.01 (before they changed/nerfed the gun) 2. The Hellcat. The Hellcat was as outrageous as the KV1S, but for very different reasons, and 1. The original (ERB who?) battlefield speed/you can't hit me terrorist... the PZ-1 C. I can't remember the number of times we would taunt the opposing team in chat that we were going to do laps through their lines.... before the battle. Record was three full laps--whilst spotting out all of their arty and TDs :-D.
I forgot how 122 cannons sound. Awesome! Today cannons sound like staples
Great video QB was really fun to watch the old gameplay and loved seeing how the game used to be again. How about some replays talking about tank that were removed too? like the WT Auf. E-100
Keep up the good work. Love this series!
YES KEEP IT COMING and the old school chat when you could talk to the enemy team
Love the old school vids! Love the new stuff too. Whatever makes you happy it's all good. Slainte!

That post battle stats screen on Karelia brought up good memories
fun fact: that music was from a strategy game from WG that is called Order of War (probably also in Operation Bagration, but I have never actually managed to try it)! :)

Keep up the good work! 😃😃😃 Btw, is it ok if you could add a playlist for the "Before it was Nerfed" series, please? Thanks and have a great day ahead! :)
I remember those days. I usually play with a friend using M6. He picked and then wait till the return...the 1s was terrifying
man these old replays make me feel some type of way
IS7 tech tree tier 6 gave me a great boost grind in crew skills before proceeding to grind for IS7 tank. Good memories.
I distinctly remember the first time i fired the KV-1S 122mm, back when I had 200 games or smth. So awesome
