[@ultimatechad8738]

To be fair it's way more common in beginner tiers than in higher ones, on some tanks you can take full ammo load and use it as makeshift add-on armor (tho it can still be detonated, just way lower chances of that happening)

[@chillycanuck2566]

The APDS at 1.0 makes low tier Sweden so fun. Then you get to 3.3 and realize there is absolutely nothing in the tech tree until you hit 5.0

[@TinyBearTim]

They need to add all the German and soviet ww2 stuff to them then it will be good

[@erik_gaming7026]

bro you have never played sweden 4.3 its one of the most op line ups

Yesterday, a leak list came out that had what was called the Panzer6B on it, and I know what it is. It's the Tiger II P that Sweden got post-WWII for evaluation on how to make their Army better. If that list is true, Sweden will have it's first heavy tank in the game.

[@duck_iri]

interesting

[@Zxian61]

wont that be the first non-german tiger 2?

[@drawter3592]

oh my god

[@FlamieDoc]

Probably not. Like look at the Kranwagan, it has full blueprints made but gaijin didn't add it....yet they have tanks like ostwind/wirblwind, the funny pancake russian tank, Ho ri production/prototype and a lot of other stuff that didn't exist but still added. I'm starting to think gaijin really doens't want to give Sweden a heavy tank

15:25 Can we just take a moment to acknowledge the fact that even tho Spooks alone managed to rack in 15 kills and 5 assists, his team still managed to fumble the match? That's basically WT summarized in a single frame. Also vehicle suggestion for a future video: RakJPz 2 (HOT), it's very gremliny with 20 ATGM's with 700mm of penetration and can easily shoot tanks while fully behind cover

[@coreymoore1186]

[@Fatman221]

Spookston: "I wish I didn't get so many uptiers". The Gaijin representative dispatched to his house, looking him directly in the eye: "Absolutely fucking not".

0:10 The Swedish Strv. M/41 S-I is essentially a German Pz. 38T, which is essentially a Czechoslovakian LT vz. 38.

6:53 "You gotta keep em still to pick em apart" Spookston instant classic qoute 😭

[@OptiPopulus]

11:33 The reason that detonated the ammorack was either previous damage (which can happen to M4s when the shell pens but then has basically no energy left so the ammo eats it and the shrapnel, causing it to turn yellow/orange/red) or from RNG which is more likely. That ammo was on the other side of the tank so not much of the shrapnel got to it. Usually it requires the shell and the shrapnel from the armor to hit the ammo to kill it like with the Bofors Crusader at 15:13

[@Redeulous]

I have over 1000 hours but when I add up the time in tanks + planes I have like 7 days played in game.

[@shaddaboop7998]

3:07 One of the reasons there's so many inconsistencies in the damage models, visuals, etc between tanks is that every single vehicle in the game is modelled, textured, hitboxed, and rigged by outsourced solo freelancers. Gaijin obviously wants the submitted vehicles to conform to certain standards but overall they don't seem to care too much about consistency.

[@jdjhhfhh]

The fact there’s 3 1.0 tanks with same gun and ammo so fun to go for god mode with when you got a spare crew slot

"Making my way downtown, walking fast, faces pass and i'm homebound" but then again, only the first part and the music after that part i remember the best is it weird i find low-mid tier France to be my comfort tree? their heavy tanks are such a meme, their truck with the 40mm is fun, and ARL is basically a French KV1 I have a theory that solid shots work better if you shoot at the most armored part, because they produce the most spall which wrecks and kills anything.... i remember firing a 17 pdr at the most armored part of the KV1, and it died in 2 hits

[@BubblesTheAmoeba]

The armor on the ARL is just thick enough to give you false hope of not being penetrated. It is a heavy tank in name only.

[@AZREDFERN]

Another thing that makes APDS OP at low tier is the velocity of the round. A lot of distances require manual range finding. But APDS usually has half the bullet drop.

[@FlirBlitz]

APDS at 1.0 is wild

[@aiedenoldstien9751]

Gajin was seriously on something when they added it

[@aiedenoldstien9751]

@shahramtondkarmobarakie1824 Russia gets all the heat because they have so much stuff that basically doesn't exist in the game. Such as tanks with features they don't actually have. They also have gotten almost every gap filled while other nations don't. Though also Sweden doesn't get as much as they don't have the playerbase like the Big 3 have. Which some of their vehicles are ludicrously powerful while others are just sad. It's a 50/50 gamble

A friend absolutely loves low tier sweden and often brings them to higher tiers as a meme and actually manages to perform ok. I've seen him kill centurions and one shot centauros with APHE, I've also seen him snipe planes off the air with the sabot. It's a stupid bunch of vehicles at such a low br and think it would be very fun to see you attempt the nuke thing with these.

day 116 : you should try the jagdtiger sometime. it's extremly slow, doesn't have a turret, gets uptiers all the time, and most importantly, you'll have to play with german teams. the very definition of suffering.

[@eriktheos6022]

RIP Gunk. Truly a real one

[@juusolatva]

2:15 I think you might be able to kill tanks by ramming into them with an airplane in Simulator Battles, but that game mode is a whole another can of worms in many ways, since friendly fire is enabled for everything and not having 3rd person view can actually be quite scary as well.

[@edgychico9311]

This is why Gaijin nerf the APDS is because it seem to OP and now it shoots like a rifle round but doing no damages unless you hit the crew or other components inside the tank. However it's still good too.

[@foreignfat6009]

That one round where you mentioned how a puma was spotting a lot but not killing, i wonder if that was me. Last weekend or so i had a task to get spotting assists so for a few games I'd sit back in a light tank spamming V on the enemy.

[@tiseril]

The softhead ammo is bascially arrows at low tier. It's amazing, the damage is lackluster but the amount of pen makes all of it guaranteed

[@thefinnishphoenix7412]

I'm a low tier and I used to play Sweden until like 3.0 I think, at those tiers the APDS started to feel very underpowered. Could very well be skill issue on my part, but I kept getting a lot of non-pens, especially against T-34s and the KV tanks. You are too good man

[@ragnarokinfall8565]

Here is a challenge: Use the BMP3 but only HE , the round is good enough to overpressure tanks in 9.0, you have lasefinder and fast reload, the only downside is the slow speed of the round.

You should play with the Italian m42 75/34, it's an interesting tank when played right.

@@phaan2856 thank you

[@_spooT]

Swedish tanks don't joke around. I've had so much fun playing low tier back when it was released. Rapid firing SPAA that can used as a tank destroyer and anti-aircraft, high-velocity peashooters that reload just as quickly, and to top it off, the 75mm autoloader with 4 rounds. doesn't matter if they barely have armor if the enemy can't see you first

[@supercow3647]

i love how sweden get sabot rounds at reserve tier it makes starting off with it so much easier

Spookstin: wow this tank is so special it has apds at a low tier! Basically ever singular non high-tier Swedish tank having sabot:

[@XanderTuron]

6:25 I think you were getting trolled by volumetric shenanigans on the Turan's driver view port; it's a separate small piece of armour the same thickness as the rest of the upper glacis and it occasionally eats rounds.

[@Onionrings09]

for refrence, the first american tank with sabot is the the m41a1 at 6.3 and sweden gets it at reserve teir.

Thank you Mr Spookston

[@Phantomenace1]

Spookston you should try the French TCM, it’s a r3 with 2 20mm guns and it’s a truck, might be fun, might be hell

[@StatiCraft3712]

Sometimes it doesn’t do enough damage because there wasn’t enough armor. You’re essentially over-penning. Sabot will create more spall the more it deforms, so it does better the more armor it’s punching through. Up to a peak, obviously. So when I play this vehicle I actually try to hit angles and slopes near the weak spots to try maximizing spall

[@Juel92]

Nice to see this vehicle. I used to request the S-II variant back in the day when I played it. Like the Strv 103A it doesn't matter much that it's regular APDS because the fire rate is so good.

This is a little late but if you think you have tinnitus but haven't been diagnosed and can't think of how you got it there's actually a good chance you have impacted or excessive earwax. It will trigger the same ringing tinnitus can and has some other similar symptoms. If you've got health insurance or a GP through other means it's good to see a doctor as they'd be able to tell and help immediately, but they also sell over-the-counter ear drops that can clean out your ears and could make a difference.

[@gafeleon9032]

The reason you couldn't pen the toldi on the ufp is because it has applique armor and gaijin models APDS to shatter in the first plate and non pen the second It also happens on the ufp of the porsche tiger/ferdinand/elefant
