T 54D - Tank Review - World of Tanks

Must have been tired recording this so late... HOWEVER, hope you enjoyed it 😂

[@RyleeOfCourse]

Hahaha. We all loved it though.

[@BaldEagle7744]

😂😂 hilarious

[@doubleutubefan5]

QB's new favorite word is however. I guess "I digress" is put aside for now

[@jong-wonlee4554]

if we played a drinking game everytime QB said 'however', we'd be under the table in 3 minutes

[@aurigarvel727]

ALTHOUGH! HOWEVER! ALTHOUGH! HOWEVER!

Reason why am stop watching at 7:27. Enough is enough.

[@kevinrawding6730]

It’s not new it’s classic Qb and I don’t find it particularly distracting or annoying tbh.

[@gravityassistgaming]

It’s annoying lmao but true

[@RedXlV]

Just FYI, the ground resistances on the T 54D are *identical* to those of the T 55A. So it's not really that Wargaming set them that way to make up for the awful power/weight ratio, it's just that they used the T 55A as the starting point for this tank and never changed the ground resistance.

[@MikeMorrinson]

Something positive for me: Weakpoints, that are actually where you expect them, when looking at the armour-model. Nice! The gaps in the front-spaced-protection, the cupolas, the front when the tank is angled you shoot beside the spaced armour ... I like that.

[@nkzeta2315]

Yup, it's refreshing.

[@warshire]

It is how things used to be... wg got rid of that for some reason though... driver ports used to be weaknesses!

[@theroaringgun9679]

I hate now that every new tank that comes out always gets a micro patch before it releases. I feel at this point they're intentionally doing it.

[@afau1non]

@sakira8356it means that it is not tested which is BAD

[@cbell9100]

Totally fine to update before release. Years ago they never even had cc playing the tanks ahead of time and they would give a tank review a few days after release.

[@RyleeOfCourse]

We drink every time QB says “however”…😂

love to see some semi historical tanks being added, east german T-55 with spaced armour styled after the M48 "super" modenization package

[@tamaskosa4456]

The best they've added in a long time. A breathe of fresh air after all those concept rocket-propelled hover tanks and the ones with teletubbies skins.

[@Lemmiatem78]

Micro patches with both of their two latest lootbox releases should be very concerning

[@martinbenicek3465]

Why? Just dont use your wallet and enjoy the game. How does it really affects u that others pay for the game u like to play? I dont get it. I dont really care, I just pass. WG wants to make money like any other company. Do I care? No. Why should I? I pay for what I want to. If I dont I just pass, but I am happy that others do pay and keep the game alive for me as well...

Maybe "Experimental Turbo", so you get a measure of gun handling along with the speed boost?

[@deadzeddicious3684]

I really want to use the speed slot in the equipment tho. Perfect for a regular turbo. Maybe turbo, Vents Stabs? I know no rammer sounds horrible, but meh.

[@KingKobra98]

@@deadzeddicious3684 then put vents there instead

[@robinkhn2547]

It is interesting to see, that QB pretty much always picks a field mod. I think not choosing a field mod sometimes is also a valid choice, as it keeps that aspect balanced.

[@mortiss6]

Same, sometime the drawback versus the benefit not worth it.

[@timeforgottenprince8271]

A tier 9 Super Pershing. Interesting.

[@yetao501]

true

[@julienstrelow2653]

No its Not a premium. Its only a reward tank no extra credits

​​@@julienstrelow2653that's a mistake they made this patch, wot express said they will be changing it to premium tank in the new micropatch

not really. Superpershing has USELESS alpha and dpm

[@pakkade_le_rageux]

well that's the same for t54d

[@johnfarscape]

I found that it worked great with a turbo, vents and a rammer, keeping moving made the armour really work well, I just wish there was a decent tech tree tank with the same crew loadout.

[@gundamwf91]

This reminds me what the original T54 mod 1 in the good old days

[@oldewolfe6968]

This looks to be a Nice Replacement for the T-55A, also an East German Tank... Something to Look Forward to...

[@mattkelly6226]

Yeah but you pay for this

[@Jinny-Wa]

Paying is better than grinding arta missions@@mattkelly6226

[@jbjb8335]

not really a replacement, more like an alternative, id personally still choose the mobility and gun handling of the t55a

[@RedXlV]

Technically, this is a 1992 proposal for upgrading old T-54s and T-55s. In theory, yes it could have been done with all those T-54s and T-55s that unified Germany had just inherited, but it was really meant as an export offer for third-world nations that had Soviet tanks and couldn't afford brand-new replacements.

[@beobang9854]

My Indien panzer crew works for this tank, it’s what I’ve been using anyway, and so far have loved it, it’s great as a support medium for being a bullet sponge so you’re team can dish out the faster shots while you bounce the enemies

[@EraOfJack]

I don't think this tank is crazy OP, but it does make me wonder if we're starting to see a shift from bad tier 9 premiums to now competitive, to eventually OP like what we saw with tier 8 premiums. I'd hate for tier 9 to have OP premiums that rivaled tier 10 vehicles like how some of the tier 8 premiums rival some tier 9 vehicles.

[@brianhoyt2469]

Fun fact, if you take a drink or shot everytime QB says "how ever" you’ll be smashed 8min into the video! 😂

[@douchejoe1510]

how many "however's" can we fit in a given video? Looks like a new QB drinking game!

[@Bogdan_Gld]

It looks well armoured, However, if i ever get this tank, I'll get penned everywhere as always. However, I'll stick with my Kpz-50T

[@edelmann4388]

when one can afford it, experimental survival and fire control are valid options too. Survival for added hit points and the buff to modul HP like fuel tank and ammo rack as well as tracks. Fire control system gives you the vert stabs and the gun laying drive to reduce bloom on movement and lowering the aim time significantly. 3 slot maybe vents is the way to go for mor overall improvement. also you can avoid to choose the 9th field mod to not have a bad effect on speed or viewrange

[@animalyze7120]

There will be 500 of these on day 1 and within a week you'll randomly see 1 in a battle every so often, just like most other "Focus" tanks they put in the loot boxes. I won't be buying any more of those boxes till they let you decide which tank of the lineup you wish to receive each time the win comes up.

[@moose8337]

Qb's bot comments are wild

[@hellothere8411]

What bot comments

[@exelibrium]

Would make sense if you could put the East German emblem on it

[@RedXlV]

This is actually a 1992 upgrade package for the T-54 proposed by Blohm & Voss, so the West German (or more actually, unified Germany) emblem makes complete sense. (I think that means this is the most modern vehicle in World of Tanks, BTW.)

[@veoa416]

So this tank takes another build very well: Experimental turbo T3 preferably, Experimental hp T3 and bond/bounty v-stab. You'll end up having ~420ish view and 2300 dpm but you don't have to aim as long as you'll have 31%+ reduced dispersion on the move (I'd spend 10k a match for the smooth ride directive too, for another 5% boost). Other than that, you'll end up having more internal module hitpoints which helps it's rather weak fuel tanks and ammo rack.

[@Atochaf1]

First battle is 15:0... And anybody not talking the MM problem, the 15:0-3 battles... Especially the CCs don't talk about it. Because it's good for them. They make a lot of money from wg, youtube, twitch and they don't want to spoil that. It's such a shame!

[@MAXimaler_MUC-gt4we]

Tonight I will make a drinking game out of this video having a shot every time he is saying „however“!

[@davidballantyne4492]

Just to note, the 54d was released as a reward tank, not a premium today (14th). Then it was patched in the afternoon to earn like a premium t9, but it will now SHOW as a premium until another patch tomorrow.

[@shalakabooyaka1480]

Bet this would do well with experimental turbo and hardening with bond vents. Thats a lot to invest in a t9 tank though.

[@Tohtal1]

It's only a reward tank, definitely not worth it

[@descartes2404]

QB: So overall this tank is amazing against tier 7 and tier 8 vehicles. So basically the same as with any other tier 9 tanks with some semblance of armor

[@johnmccall4528]

I heard from a WG employee a while ago. Apparently, the dispersion values seen in this video are FINAL 😬 (for now) and the update was to fix a bug where the tank wasn't showing up as a premium.

[@oscargraeme9451]

QB please for once drop the vents man! On a tank like this vstabs would be so much more useful for quickly getting shots in and not having to expose yourself as much especially on these closer range maps where view range and cammo aren't important.

[@BlackhawkWoTConsole]

Eventough i play on console and not on pc. I really like your content and find it very useful even with the differences between the games. By the way thanks to you i researched the Maus and even on console its amazing. It even replaced my Is-4 as my favorite tank! When using its armor the correct way it really is a fortress on track’s with a very good gun!

[@mehmetozturk771]

Don't sidescrape, you will reveal through track weakpoint, if you just peek normaly you won't reveal any weakpoint with the angle since your track is following the side of the building and other track is behind your front.

[@charlieliao8021]

Looking at this in my tier 8 tanks......yeah I'm scared, can't even pen the lower plate with gold.....

[@isaacpiegat6735]

why not take extra view range modification and then drop vents for vertical stabilizers? this would seem more sensible.

[@user-rv5ok2he6x]

Micropatch 1.24_2 release note 14 March 2024: "The T 54D has been assigned Premium status, meaning it now earns additional credits and XP, and can also earn bonds. It will be visually indicated as a Premium vehicle in game interfaces later. All players who received the vehicle before the patch release will receive 100 bonds, 300,000 credits, and 2 Personal Reserves for +300% to Free and Crew XP for 1 hour as compensation after server maintenance is complete."

[@davidlatimore5423]

Having played a few of them now in your standard tech tree tier 9 medium tanks, these guys are the BZ, of the medium, tier 9 line... Yes, there are gaps in armour. Try hitting them while they are moving back and forwards. Try exposing your tech tree medium to get into a position to get to those gaps. Pay to win at its best.

[@marv1nperator]

Why prioritise Off-road driving over Smooth ride? Makes no sense with those ground resistances.

[@wote2760]

WOuld you say that the armor is similar effectiveness as the Iron Arnie? This is possibly what i consider a MBT. A tank with decent armor, gun, and mobility.

[@QuickyBabyTV]

Similar yes!

[@williamwalworth3151]

QB you keep forgetting that the char mle 75 is the first tier 9 premium tank in the game

[@1stJohn_3_16]

False. It was the Strv K. All the first tier IX premium tanks in this game were heavies.

[@gangfire5932]

I lost track of the number of nested "howevers . . ." in the script. So what crew skills should you take? Well . . . all of them. 😛

[@mitchellfalls7860]

Whats QBs problem with vert stabs??? This tank needs it and refuses to use them

[@DarthV506]

Another tier 9 german tank with the 105... still haven't figured out why the kzp50t only gets 320 alpha with basically the same gun as the kunze, leopta and t54d.

[@bikebudha01]

You have to gamble with real money to get it now. So I won't be able to get it for a couple years - because I'm not a sucker. I would run vents, turbo, and experimental engine level 3 - to really beef up the speed. Would not bother with multiple builds. It's solid stock, and the small benefits aren't worth the small reductions.

[@zeusdwyer3147]

I got lucky from 100 boxes and got the T54D, Jagtiger Proto, K2 and the AMX so glad the luck of the Irish was with me lol

[@livingproof4788]

150 boxes to get all tanks except forest spirit, amx 30 and char mle. Friend got super lucky and got in 50 boxes: Forest spirit, Emil, K2 and Amx 30. That makes it 10 EUR per tank. Lucky shot there. Ah he also got arround 100k free xp aswell.

[@yeetha4532]

Literally got this tank in the second box I opened. Glad I only bought 5

[@somerandomguyfromthebeyond1821]

Somewhere in the distance you can hear HEAT spammers crying into a blanket at the sight of all that space armor

[@zanaton1989]

It's the same shit as Iron Arnie, only that his weak points were covered more and a Tier 8 from the front won't be able to hit him unless he has 330 penetration.

Dude he said however so many times I literally had to pause the video at a few points to avoid clicking off entirely lol. It’s okay to take multiple cuts sometimes QB

[@AlexRoivas]

even though this is a made up tank the Germans did upgrade the M48 tank with armor that looks like what this T-54D has. though I would expect this tank to actually have a better engine than the stick T-54 engine

[@aleowyn]

The T-54D is listed as reward tank, thus it wont earn you more credits. And its more comparable to the the T55A, which is a better tank and you can get that for free with some effort.

[@DavidsFishEmpire]

It was a half a day hiccup on WGs side. They patched it 7 hrs after this video. And pen is God like for a prem with that reload and gun stats, add armor and mobility to it too. I have over 80 tier 8 prems. This is my new money printer. BY A LOT. Averaging 120k a game

[@stoptellingmewhattowrite]

Looks like a t9 German Iron Arnie-esque thing.

We should campaign to ban loot boxes, why is WG so greedy? Also how demoralising is it for newbies at TIER 7 when faced with this kind of tank. cheers fella nice video.

[@aleksandarpetrovic5727]

Thinking this tank is any worse than any better armoured tier IX heavy that also has 300-400hp more besides T-54 already existed for a while with the identicam armor layout. The only thing I wonder and didn’t really pay attention to is whether hull front weak spots are big enough to reliably shoot at then and a good player that moves properly and plays him with turbo will screw you hard If you try aiminc the weakspot, It will also hard punish a tier IX/X players that try to pen it with heat.

Yep. So do a lot of other meta stomped meds XD. But yeah, they could re-ignite super P sales by giving it at least 280 alpha, or lower reload by a good margin and give it 300 to 330. I would actually play it again XD

If WG wants to make money, they should rent extra slots for equipment and supplies instead of constantly introducing new tanks into the game.
