The CM11 in the Chinese tank tech tree has been one of the more heavily requested vehicles on this channel, and I do not understand why. It's an M60 that gets the cannon of the M1 Abrams but that's about it. It is a good vehicle for sniping, but that isn't really my playstyle. Had some funny Gaijin moments in this one, hope you guys enjoy.

I feel like the m60 ambt is closer to being a mini abrams, 120 cannon, 1200hp engine, really good optics and thermals

I have a strange compulsion to call every M60+ like M60A3TTS, M60 Super, AMBT, Sabra, Magach 6, M60-2000 or M60 Block 3 as Crusader. Thanks, Command&Conquer: Generals😂

I would go with the OF-40 (MTCA) for the title of mini Abrams. The acceleration and mobility feels similar, the tank has a stepped deck and a .50 cal on the roof. No Armour - best Armour makes it tanky.
I think you'd enjoy playing the 1951 EBR, ARL-44, and AMX-13 DCA 40 - the DCA now has a 90° /s traverse speed, the ARL basically has a laser gun for its armament, and we all know why we have a love-hate relationship with the tech tree EBR

Little tip : you can actually just hold lmb even if it's not automatic (such as a 6s 75mm) and it'll still fire as soon as you can fire, possibly saving a few frames compared to spam clicking, possibly saving your life.

It feels like a WMA301 that can't be .5 called and doesn't wobble as much, completely not worth the 0.6 BR increase, especially compared to wheeled light tanks of other nations. (not to mention the end of the line costs)
@KingdomOfDimensions
Жыл бұрын
It has abysmal maneuverability and gun handling. Speed/accel more like an M1128 than other wheelie boys, only slightly better reverse than the PTL with significantly worse turn radius, and like most Chinese vehicles it has pretty bad gun depression. This isn't to say it's bad, it has great pen after all, but it has major downsides that limit how and where you can play.

You should play the SARC 6Pdr ( think that’s how it’s spelled ). It has a short reload, super fast and a .50 cal on the top for track shenanigans. The crusader II is also very fun, it is a light tank with good depression and elevation, APHE and super fast. Also it’s low in BR so you are basically punching toddlers in the face.
I really appreciate how you don't sit in the garage for 10 minutes showing off stupid crap and pixel hunting. Just straight to the action and good jokes.
Could you play the panzer 2 with the 50mm, the baby tigor, arguably the cutest tank in the game
fucked up how i have no interest in playing War Thunder but i always watch you videos as they drop. genuinely fun videos dude, i love your commentary lmao
thank you for playing this spooks, I was hoping the late M60s would get some love. Please let the world know of the M60A1 RISE's plight
Hey Spookston, you should play the upgraded centurion like Israel's Sho't Kal Alef/Gimel/Dalet, Swedish Strv 104/105, or South African Olifant. I thought it might be interesting to see Centurions fight in 8.3- 9.0 like CM11
@juusolatva
Жыл бұрын
both Sho't Kal Dalets (the older UK one and the Israeli one) pretty recently got thermals too. when it comes to the Olifant, the Olifant Mk.2 is probably the most heavily upgraded Centurion in the game. on the other hand the Olifant Mk.1A only really has a better engine, a laser rangefinder and access to APFSDS, while the Sho't Kal Alef is even worse off, since it only gets a better engine and HEATFS. notably some of the upgraded variants also lack the extra armor on the UFP, which the Centurion Mk.5/1 and the Centurion Mk 10/Strv 101 come with.
@thomasmacdonough288
Жыл бұрын
The Olifant Mk1A is a travesty. Not only is it a glass cannon, but it has a *7°/s* turret traverse. Glorified casemate tank, no idea how it stays 8.3. the Mk2 should be good but I always do awful in it, maybe because it's such a huge target? Ig it feels clunky. The Sho't Kal Dalet is an absolute monster though, same with Strv104/5s are very strong. This just my personal preference though.

Got to love the ERA that's nearly at a 90 degree angle next to the gun
I still think it would be fun to see you test out the bmp-3 considering i rarely see people discuss it or play it in war thunder and on other forums.
Lost count of how many videos I've asked but here's to hoping for the Sturm Emil eventually
I don't know why but this video pleased me greatly 😂
“We fired half our ammunition for 2 kills” is every war thunder match i’ve ever played

My neighbor worked on this project back when Taiwan couldn't get Abrams. General Dynamics was like let's just stuff everything from the Abrams into the M60 for you guys and call it good.
This made me remember the m60 AMBT, a tonk i happened to use a bit up until i managed to get like only the first half of the abrams kitted out...
Idk if that would make you suffer or have fun but Lepkz M41 is a vehicle that i would love to watch you play, kinetic ammo and light tank combo is either a curse or a blessing.
Bro really pulled the: "bad luck pal"💀
This is definitely one of the tanks ever
Aft 09 is absolutely underrated in my opinion, so it would be fun to see you try it since its fast, ammo in the barrels dont explode the tank so peaking over ridges is 100% (ish) safe, and the atgms are hilariously overpowered (1200mm pen, tandem, super fast, can be fired rapidly with a fairly short relaod)
@gsilvy4k570

I don't think this is an underrated opinion at all. From everything I've ever heard and from personal experience, the aft09 is very well known for being undertiered, just like every Chinese wheeled vehicle.

yah i am waiting for this about few weeks
The thing with not penning side of that t55 is because its lost its pen when going thru building. Its a thing since a bit time apperently happened to me for the first time a month or two ago
Yes! Spook, thank you for doing this vehicle. Now, time for its brother, the TTD, in a video soon, eh?
i dont think the way i clicked the video before the thumbnail loaded is healthy
Would love to see you playing Magach 3 and how you handle it. At 7.7 I am really struggling with competing with tanks that have thermals and stabilized guns.

I use this like any other frontline tank i play (t80bvm, leo2 etc) by pushing in, ive straight up dominated matches in it, it is capable at top tier as long as you can aim, like any other 105 gun carrying backup, i also almost use it exclusively at 12.0 since i play with the other top tier Chinese tanks and i have no issues making it work.
"Do they not have a rangefinder?". Bold of you to assume they know how to use rangefinders....
What do you think of playing some other funky m60s? Like the megach 7C, 6C or gal batash? Most of them have nice little things like a laser warning, laser range finder, high pen rounds, thermals, and funny looking composite screens, there not super good but i think there ight

You should play the AMX 30 (1972). It my favourite tank in the game and i think you would have a great time playing it. Nice video btw
2:40 Your round loses pen when it goes through obstacles. You fired through 2 buildings
Spookston - be happy and satisfied with life. Challenge: impossible
You should try the class 3 P, only tank I've played that seems to go faster in snow and on sand and is surprisingly survivable for the biggest armored car ever
wake up honey new spookston video just dopped
Man says: "is this our top speed?" At 48 km/h. Me, sitting at 5.7 Germany in a Tiger E: *chuckles in snail pace*
The 105 on the m60 series is literally the same gun on the M1. The ONLY difference is the infinity collminator (For the muzzle reference system, MRS) out at the end of the gun tube. The thermal shrouds and the bore evacuator are the same other than possibly the slight difference of the end thermal shroud due to the location of the infinity collminator.
Nice gameplay! Also could you try the British RAM tank destroyer?
8:27 I'd find it weird if you didn't know that already, but if your gun is reloading, push the left click down already and you will shoot as soon as you finished to reload :)
I don't think i ever met this tank at the battlefield
2:42 since the last update, if you shoot through a house, and due to some miracle your shot does not disappear, it will lose all of it's pen. i tested it, and a t-55a apfsds (and apds) cant pen the turret side of a zsu-57-2 if shot through a small building. good job gaijin i guess
