Just a note: It's not that the 2-pounder is inaccurate. It's that there's a hidden barrel overheating mechanic in the game. Basically, certain vehicles when fired too fast will become inaccurate if fired rapidly. That is especially noticeable with tanks like the T-34-57. You usually need to wait a bit for your 3rd and consecutive shots for the barrel to cooldown or risk your shot going sideways. Not sure about autoloaded vehicles. I have no idea why it's actually not mentioned at all, Adjustment of Fire also reduces this effect technically, but it's in the game.

Nice tip, didn't know there was a thermal mechanic. (Although I did realise that upping the gunner skills reduces the effect a lot) I've noticed that the 17 pounder suffers the same.

You should try out the SARC Mk VI with the 6 pdr gun. It has great mobility, a solid gun and a shoulder stock stabilizer. It's probably the only low tier armored car that can give the Puma a run for its money.

This is the first time i see Spookston fly a plane

Could you do a video on the CA Lorraine. I think it’s a really underrated tank with its punchy gun and great mobility, but is really overlooked because of its poor armour and the fact it’s in the french tech tree.

Love to see Ram ll! good armor and really good rounds. 57mm is awesome

i think you should try the centurion Mk3 its bit of a monster tbh

Saw you also playing those Australian planes aswell, wish they could bring the CAC CA-15 (Kangaroo) into the game as it was a prototype Australian aircraft, that looks simular to the P-51 but had no inspiration from it, rather a development from the Boomerang actually, and was fitted with 6x0.50cals, but they also thought of fitting it with I believe 4x20mm Hispano cannons, the plane was also able to carry 2x1000ib bombs.

The BA-11 would be cool to see a video about, since ive ever met one other in a match

The AC.IV with the 17 pounder absolutely slaps when played right. It's so much shorter then most other allied tanks with similar guns plus you can hide in the most dirty places and just lay in ambush.

Now if only you could make the entire tank gold. Maybe someone could make a user skin to make the entire tank appear as if made out of pure Australium.

If you haven't, play the SARC 6 pounder. It's like the 234/2 and Crusader III had a child, but it was based.

The first 30 ish seconds felt like a punch, my friend, the Ram is great! Why must you lambast your maple neighbours

Your editing and comedic timing on this video was fantastic. Good work Spookston.

Those cheezy mech arena inserts are killing me, but im happy that you get sponsorships. You deserve it more than most youtubers fr, great video on another funny upside down tank

Day 3 of asking for the Black Prince

For the compression I recommend you to upload your videos in 1440p. Because KZread uses 2 encoders, and the HQ one is used only for 1440p or higher resolutions. Even if you record in 1080p, make your video to be rescaled to 1440p, you'll surely lose some quality because of the rescale, but the difference brought by the better encoder will completely compensate. I did the same with my rallying onboards before I got able to record in 1440p, the results were astonishing

Should try the pz38t for a video. Light tank rat mode. Also bonus points to see how high br you can take it up and still get multiple kills

That sponsor transition was really good spookston

It's so ironic that you're playing the Sentinel because I was just playing it yesterday and this morning along with the 57 mm mosquito. Also, I put your decal pointing to the hull machine gun cover 😆

That transition was smooth as butter cuz I legitimately thought there was a bird at the window lmfao.

Hey Spookston, if you haven't covered it already, I'd like to see a gameplay video on the m6a1. It's my favorite tank, but I'm not good at this game and it'd be cool to know some tips. Thanks for the awesome content!

You should try the Stug III (preferably the short 75 variants), it has over 100mm of pen, is speedy, and is a short lil goblin tank in every sense

This man single handedly made all of the British tech tree look unfun and made this tank look extremally fun to play and now I kind a want to buy it

'But again we're talking about awsies' had me laughing as someone from aus

How about a video on the T18E2 or the Chinese M64? Those are some tanks I've rarely seen and it would be cool to see your opinion of them.

Whenever I see this tank I think of the 'ladidadida schlob on me knob' song

I'm enjoying this type of content from you, could you do the Panther F one day? I'm quite enjoying it to be fair, and it's quite surprising how survivable it is when angled.

Now that I think about it this is a pretty accurate representation of WoT mixed with WT because you need to shoot enemies so much they might as well have healthbars, and the dispersion is just insane.

You should've slapped a bush ontop the hull MG (if you know, you know).

i love the command & conquer generals music in the background

Love the videos, they always make me laugh. Can you do a video on the amx-13 HOT, it always gets so much hate but I just love playing it. Killing top tier tanks with a 75 solid shot round is just so much fun
