A Brit Judges New Wheelies...

[@alphaxalex1634]

I think it’s a lot better for the game’s health that they come in under-balanced rather have over-powered

[@Daktangle]

Shame it will probably take about 5-6 years for any buffs to come their way.

[@tungdapzai]

Without OP, how WG take money from players?

[@Loudnose]

It's not balanced, they don't really have mobility

[@3rg025]

I think its a lot worse for the game's health that they come in as useless and you can only play the several years old lines most of the time. The chinese bz line is useless too, i bet they will ruin the new japanese heavies too. The only tech three that is useful and was added recently is the italian td line.

[@kings_nemesis5995]

@@Loudnose it's cause of the wheel turning angle if they had at least 15 or 20 degrees they would be able to do more

My oldest uncle drove the tier 6 tank (staghound/hummer) in 1948/1949 in the Dutch West Indies. So that has to be in my tank collection. Nice video Quickybaby

thank you for uncle's service, even though i assume hes a brit and im an american

[@Peter-dy9sp]

@@bigtimemegaproductions he is Dutch. After WW2 ended in Europe lots of conscriptie young man where send to the Dutch Indies to fight the Jap, but they already surrended, so they came in a chaotic situation where indepence was declared and lots of European people who hardly survived the Jap camps where killed. It was tough but the most surprisingly was when after 40 years he went back to visit his fallen comrades on the Dutch graveyard he met his old opponents and there was a lot of respect and concept. He understands why they want to be independent, they understand that the Netherlands want to keep the situation as it was before WW2. And that the Dutch not only profit from the Dutch Indies but also invest a lot in infrastructure etc. As always the normal people have to fight the wars of politicians.

[@aleksaradojicic8114]

​@@bigtimemegaproductionsMore likely Dutch.

[@tristan38T]

I think with better camo and traverse speed, or I guess degrees of wheel turn to make tighter circles, and better terrain resistance they would be more pleasant to play and not overpowered but still lack an identity. Im going through the Staghound now, and the Cromwell is my most played tank. Glad you brought up that it does everything the cromwell does...worse.

[@bigear216]

I’ve found the 5-6-7 enjoyable to play, slightly different play style, a bit more cautious and the line isn’t over powered which is good

[@thesleepyweasel3775]

I'm on the Staghound now, and definitely felt more competitive in the AEC.

[@rycor9117]

I am at tier 7 and the 5 had a learning curve - then I decided to take the line up as a challenge. It is slowly getting better but you have to be a very cautious mid range sniper. I explained it to my friend as the Titanic trying to turn.

[@dekksherton6824]

dont try to turn plan your route like a udes 03 back or forwards

[@johnfarscape]

Its a shame, as in real life the AEC, Saladin and Staghound were very nimble, for sone reason WG didn't bother to watch the hours of video footage of them driving, lazy addition to the game imo.

[@franklieghley1595]

QB failed to show that you can't handbrake in these wheeled tanks.

[@Scorpiany]

You actually can handbrake in them. You have to hold W, one of the turning keys, and the space bar. It's not like a normal tank where you let go of W or space. Also, the wheels have to be at their maximum angle for the handbrake to work. Do it correctly and you can spin 180 in half a second.

[@JS-mp7fy]

The grind up to tier X is the most woeful experience I have ever had in WoT. Playing against tier X’s with a tier 7 gun is just stupid.

[@zeyuwang2227]

QB if you get into a nice matchup and don't need to fire gold, you can use the comsumables slot to change how much of each ammo you need, not just the consumables

[@NaabiXx]

He knows

[@QuickyBabyTV]

Literally said this in the video! ~But only with field mods... not useful for grinding the line...

[@arty59fl0ck5]

I think the idea with these was to make a line similar to the Cent AX line but lowering their performance in exchange for stuff like accuracy and high reverse speeds, which the lower tiers on the line dont really enjoy as much as the higher tiers. Im loving the Saladin's accuracy right now, 3 skill crew with the QB Commander makes the fight nicer

[@andreasbusse1271]

The AEC : first Game 2030 Dmg 😮, its brillant !!!!

[@desdeskok1914]

i've waited for this, let's see...

[@jean-philippemorin1176]

Started at tier 6 yesterday. Tier 6 is a very cool tank. The Speed is pretty nice, and I build for boosting view range and increase turning. The gn is ok. I had only one game on tier 7 so far. They are fun to ply so far

[@af601glock7]

I continue to be surprise at the use of the term "tanks" for the new armored car line. These vehicles were never intended to replace tanks except in the reconnaissance role. Comparing the two types of vehicles is like comparing apples and oranges.

[@Mando98]

I've been grinding these and I really enjoyed the tier 5 AEC. Tier 6 doesn't feel much better (especially when I end up on a tier 8 lobby) but I'm having fun. I'm looking forward to the tier 7 I also really enjoy that there's crew xp bonuses going on right now for the "roll Britannia" event thing so I've already started my my third perk. Made me want to grind the French tire tanks since I don't own any french tanks (been grinding for about a month) The wheels really bring a fun aspect to tanking for me! I hadn't played WoT since like 2016 and it's been fun getting used to all the new stuff in the game that wasn't around back then. (I don't remember premium tanks being pay to win but oh well)

[@captricharddee3634]

You ain't nothing but a Staghound, firing all the time, You ain't nothing but a Staghound, firing all the time, but with piss poor traverse you ain't no friend of mine.

[@ProjectXclusive]

Where's the brit tho ?

[@Grumpycat95]

Ikr 😂

[@Colinpark]

Staghound in real life was a very good armoured car and equipped with a American 37mm. Some were fitted with the Crusader turret with 6pdr.

[@antinotice]

I think some adjustments are needed here and there but... the whole line (except tier 10 but that one has alpha advantage) has exceptional gun handling which means there's no need for v.stab. So you have a free slot that can be used for... turbo which in turn makes those tanks the fastest medium tanks in the game (except tier 10...). They are not flashy but they have very comfortable guns (something you often only get at tier 10) and they are fairy mobile with high top speed. Honestly, I don't need much more than that so I'm quite satisfied with them.

[@ahvarregaard]

the suckage is stronk in this line

[@Mr_Bunk]

6:52 “Looks like an absolute freak…” as if any other tank in the game looks any better?

[@eruantien9932]

That the AEC is the first on the line is... weird to me. So, there's the Humber, which had a 15mm autocannon and later a 37mm cannon, the Daimler, which had a 2 pdr, the (Australian) Rhino, which had a 2 pdr, and the (South African) Marmon-Herrington, which also had a 2 pdr. Why the line doesn't start at tier 3 with the Humber, and the Daimler at tier 4, I have no idea. (Rhino and Marmon-Herrington being fine fodder for tier 4 premiums). (Also, the AEC had, across the marks, a 2 pdr and 75mm as well).

[@srdjandojcinovic5106]

so for average play this line you must put bounty equip....starting from tier 5....😮

[@jessefreitas44]

The last two British lines to come out makes me think WG hates the British.

Hi fellow tankers, how can you enable to see the equipment during the battle?

You may have found out by now but if not, it is mod

[@IDHPI]

QB you should try changing rammer for LNE, it really changes the line

[@QuickyBabyTV]

I will with a second build after field mods! Currently grinding so no access!

[@robinburt5735]

In the first game look at the scoreboard, some pretty high numbers on the wheeled brit tanks. A guy on Quickys side got 6 kills and on the other side someone got 3. The numbers are obviously a bit skewed as it is a new tank and everything but darn! 13 kills by three tanks that on paper have very dubious stats P.S Lovely paint job on the tier 7

[@DasDaniel007]

When I played the AEC yesterday, I noticed another thing in common with the French EBR. Even without armor, the wheels will eat some shots with luck xD

[@doitean1342]

I don't like the staghound. I got a Cromwell B as my first premium back in the day and have played the Cromwell a lot. The Staghound pales in every way except gun handling. The main issue I have is the turning radius. It is so inflexible I have a hard time maneuvering the gun into position on any sort of slope. I might just have to free xp past it.

[@majesticraithier5332]

introduce tanks underpowered, then monitor their statistics over time and buff them as needed to fit their intended role

[@thepanzerjager1746]

Don’t you just love it when Wargaming makes it harder for new players who have to grind through those lower tier tanks and can’t just buy their way into the higher tiers. Unless they spend actual money which is exactly what WG wants us to do.

[@csh5414]

Play better then. New players have never had it so easy.

[@brycesakal3717]

I’m just going to say, for now I am only grinding to the tier 7 because it looks like a lot of fun and I want to try and Mark it as high as possible.

[@miguelteti83]

I'm interested in getting to level 10 Concept No. 5, but from level 6 to 9, which one is worth having? As if to say whether it's good or bad playing, this tank can't be missing. Or none and just focus on level 10?

[@lpanades]

The tier VII shoots better than my Grille 15 fully aimed at one third the distance.

[@matufujiwara7493]

qb fully missing the overpowerness of tier 5 and 6. tier 5 tank said has 120pen and 180 gold pen. this is more like tier 6 pen. t34 85 has 144 pen and 180 gold pen in tier 6. the smaller calibre guns usually have even less pen on regular rounds. and tier 6 staghound gold pen is again more of like tier 7 pen. this makes it super easy for them to pen with gold rounds. and this is overpowered because your armor wont matter much if you get a bulletrain from a gun that has next tier penetration. i really think that rn they have been very well balanced so really. gj wargaming.

[@The_Racr1]

Hey, hey did a jingles and misnamed a tank. Called the M8A1 an M4A1

[@quarteratom]

60 km/h at tier 5 on a medium is pretty good IMO. 90 alpha is bad though. More alpha is always better.

[@Loudnose]

I'm at Tier 7

[@whya2ndaccount]

Let me guess wheeled vehicles aren't stopped by Dragon's Teeth? So not only are they in no way similar to the real vehicles, where a real vehicle existed (e.g. the Staghound with its real 37mm gun turret replaced by a Crusader 75mm gun [which it never had either, topping out at a 6pdr] turret), but they somehow have "tank like" obstacle crossing capability.

[@corriemooney9812]

It's all in their reverse speed and good guns. I'm starting to love the 1010.

[@kripperinoobviousino6019]

Not flexible enough, there's many tanks that can do that but better and don't have to suffer with atrocious camo and no armor

[@matufujiwara7493]

i think siegfried is much more balanced. previously i never went south cause i knew it is lost every single time when defending.

[@nomar5spaulding]

I tried one game in the AEC earlier. I got a map where I literally don't know how to stay way back and be a support tank, and I was one of our top tier mediums in a battle where winning the medium flank is really important, so I didn't want to leave myself totally in the back. I got part way to where I wanted to go, took a hit to the wheel, instantly aquired approximately the same mobility as a damaged engine Maus, and was killed before I could even do a 180 degree turn, let alone escape. Also, my turning circle was so wide I started literally driving off the map up the edge of a hill I didn't know could be drive up at all... It did not go well lol.

[@jhonylg4045]

for me in my opinion the Scheme A is the better looking of them all

[@jariheimoluoto4959]

In my opinion the tier 7 is better than comet. I hate comets low standard pen. So far i really like the tier 7 wheelie.

[@3NC3PH4L0N]

180 gold pen @ tier 5 is absolute cancer for a wheeled light tank... you dont even have to think, you just press 2 and start blasting

[@strategicmind2652]

they should have made them fast meds with good camo to make up for the horrible DPM and armor, QB should really play the buffed Brit heavies, as WG forgot to buff their gundep.

The AEC should change it's name to AEG because basically it's like fighting with a fridge on wheels

[@someul]

[@thesnazzycomet]

is it that difficult for Gaijin or Wargaming to model British vehicles properly? they both seem hellbent on ruining them for no reason. I mean at least wot included several real british armoured cars, but its little things like giving the Saladin wank HE pen despite using a gun designed exclusively to fire HESH or HEAT rounds...

[@forgerofsouls9126]

Almost feels like WG saw that other recently released lines felt over-powered when they came out, thus, they wanted to actually have a balanced tank line. But, in doing so, some of the tanks feels...all over the place in balance.

[@antinotice]

There was no overpowered tech tree since...Czech heavies? And that one only had OP tier 10 (and maybe tier 9). Since then we had italian TDs which are strong but not really OP, american Yoh heavies that nobody even plays, chinese heavies which are... mediocre at best and japanese TDs that have some gems but are nothing special in the end.

[@forgerofsouls9126]

@@antinotice It's also not just the tech trees. It's also the premiums. People have been complaining for a while now about how new premiums seem to be OP. The new medium tank line, was obviously made to be more balanced compared to past attempts. As you pointed out, two of those lines, were meh. So, it is not just about overpowered lines, but, also under powered ones as well.

[@antinotice]

@@forgerofsouls9126 Sorry, but you didn't say anything about premiums in your original comment. I don't understand your logic - how the new line was made to be more balanced when pretty much every tech tree since czech heavies was mediocre at best (maybe with an exception of italian TDs). Premiums are a separate topic because premium tank that comes with the new tech tree is always stronger than tech tree vehicle and this is true for very long time now and this time is no different.

I’m so frustrated with these tanks. Currently using the Scheme A with stock engine and wheels and it takes like 30 seconds to turn on the spot. My Tog turns faster. With several wheels popped you do 1km/h it’s like a joke. I bounced off the rear of a light tank and then wasn’t even mad cause it’s only 100 dmg anyways. If you like being an underdog and putting yourself at incredible disadvantage this is your line

[@csh5414]

It’s the same as the Brit light line. Garbage. I can understand balancing but what I can’t understand is making them painful to play. This line is for players who have grinded out all tanks and are bored.

[@AverageWotPlayer-tx8pd]

At least they are not over-powered 😁😆and they are playable🤔. Turning on the spot is really bad, at least good gun handling. I think tier 8, 9 and 10 will be good enough.

[@Xelianow]

The changes on Siegfried Line spawn are... not good. Absolutly not good. Yes, it is nice to be able to choose which flank you want to go to. But.... ...the north was always the achilles heel for the attackers. It was already very very difficult to attack, but was at least manageable because you would arive at the ridge line the same time as the defenders. Now it is nigh impossible to attack the north because the enemy already awaits you. When defending Erlenberg as a faster heavy or medium tank with at least decent gun depression going north was already a great option. Now you win the north almost instantly and can start to roll up the enemy from there on by crossfiring into the town entrance or flanking through the fields. Untill now some tanks were kinda forced to play north simply by spawning there... now so few people actually want to go there or at least cover the flank by sniping from A2/A3 that the defending team bascially starts the match with an already won flank...

[@chromiumphotography5138]

Sorry just had to point this out @12:14 - not only does it have two extra wheels, one on each side ...

[@wolfbane8290]

The introduction of wheeled vehicles and the horrendous impact that the EBR had on the game was precisely the final straw that made me quit World of Tanks. Seeing Wargaming double down on the formula, despite giving wheeled vehicles poor gun depression and weaker armor ignores the game-breaking impact that wheeled vehicles' SPEED has on what used to be an early game grace period for positioning and strategy. Admittedly these two vehicles aren't quite as broken but Wargaming's additive decision making rather than removing the initial problem just reinforces the conclusion drawn years ago that its complete lack of care for the quality of player experience is just the norm now. Good riddance.
