Spookston’s equivalent of a bad match is my equivalent of downloading hacks

[@_Anato_]

Because he has his own engine volume dialled right down, and enemy/other engine volume dialed right up. Which allows him to hear around corners and like 200 m away which gives a MASSIVE advantage, the same as purposely using ULQ and he's scum because of it. You see it all the time, he'll be doing something, with absolutely no input visually or on the map and suddenly will come to a dead halt, turn around and be like "There is an AMX-32 back here". And 4 streets away through 7 buildings there will be an idling Leclerc waiting in an ambush position. It's basically wall hacks and is as scummy as ULQ like I said. I have my sound settings both at max and I can't hear shit over the sound of my own engine unless I either turn it off, or something immensely loud is right next to me.

[@zaleost]

I often found the simplest way to increase your odds of getting a one hit kills with the Centurion is to be focusing on an objective that specifically requires you to get assist kills instead. Almost every time I have that objective and decided to play Britain, I keep finding myself one shotting most enemies (either by hitting their ammo or catching to front section in just the right position for the shrapnel cone to actually get all crew members) and get far fewer assists than I was hoping for as a result.

4:50 The Centurion's mobility was optimized for good maneuverability, top speed wasn't seen as very important (Agility was to be about equal to that of the Comet). The fuel consumption wasn't actually that high, its low operational range is more a result of its relatively small fuel tanks. Other petrol powered tanks with similar engines used about the same amount of fuel but often carried more of it (546 liters vs 760 liters on the M48). As for the ingame performance the top speed isn't that much of a downside in my opinion, most tanks at the BR usually don't go much faster offroad anyway. It only gets a little annoying when you're in a downhill locked to 34 km/h while everyone else zooms past with longer gear ratios.

You should play the British tier 2 Sarc MKVI 6Pdr. It is very fast ( I call it the Super Awesome Race Car ). It has the British 6 pounder and is very good for 3.3. It goes by no armor best armor and if you get shot in the turret you die no matter what ( 3 crew, 2 in turret). It’s got a .50 cal on top for AA and shredding milk trucks. It’s funny because it recoils a ton, and no matter what will land on its wheels probably to counter the recoil. I also think that the crusader II is fun. It’s I think 2.0ish and is super fast, good fun and I believe ( in a British tank) APHE. it is great for capping points, running along the sides and flanking the enemy. Day 6

spookieston mah boi did u really go “eep” in video at about 3:48

[@hawkstable8889]

What would you think of nerfing APHE so it would explode in a cone to close the gap between it and solid shot by a little? I think it would be a good change since it would require more careful aim and remove some instakill weakspots which shouldn't work, and it's also realistic since most APHE rounds don't contain enough explosives to actually nullify the forward momentum of the shell fragments. I think it would also be good to make fuzes work unreliably on angled armor, as was often the case in reality, premature detonation would also be realistic but probably too frustrating.

[@tm1182]

Absolutely not, and I don't even use APHE

[@daskollektiv4593]

the fuzes being unreliable would be a bad change but the aphe being realistic would be a good change but wouldnt really affect very large aphe

[@hawkstable8889]

@@tm1182 Can you elaborate on your point a little? I'd be interested to hear why you think that, because at the moment APHE is a little too forgiving in therms of shot placement in my opinion, since you could literally hit an empty spot on a tank and one shot it because the shell explodes in a full sphere. It also makes no sense from a balance standpoint that APHE is literally just better than solid shot in every way, especially considering some tanks (British and French) don't even have the option for APHE. Compare the 5.3 AC IV in the british tree to the Panther D in the German tree for example. The Panther is arguably undertiered anyway, but look at their guns, both have about the same pen but the Panther gets APHE and therefore has much more reliable damage output. There's also the fact that sometimes solid shot just refuses to spall at all, making it even worse. It should also be noted that the British stopped using APHE after the 2 pdr gun because they found that it caused little to no extra damage compared to solid shot while also having a chance of premature detonation.

[@tm1182]

@@hawkstable8889 it doing "too little damage to justify the cost" makes sense IRL, because a solid shot penetration or an aphe penetration would both take the tank off the battlefield IRL. I don't think they should nerf the APHE in game because I think the realistic solution would be to buff apds and solid shot, I run mainly centurions @7.3 and my APDS sometimes does literally nothing when it pens. No spall, just straight through, happened a few days ago on a leo 1 side shot. A 9 pound metal dart going 3-4k FPS penetrating armor sounds like it should always spall to me. The other thing I disagree with is the shot placement being too forgiving, mainly because when I use APDS i find that due to projectile size I run into far fewer volumetric issues than when I use APHE, especially larger caliber APHE that gets caught on everything with volumetric. A very slight buff to apds and solid shot would be the solution that I believe would fix the problem without ruining things for others who play APHE centric tech trees.

[@sigstenbockgard8080]

Horrible idea honestly. Making a shell do less damage doesn't make the game more fun for anyone, and you should never make a game less fun because "muh realism" (volumetric shells was such a great addition am i right). There is a very simple solution which would make the game more balanced and more fun for everybody and that's to just buff the spall on solid to the point where you actually have to think if the penetration trade off is worth the little bit of extra damage. What you're suggesting could have the effect of making APHE practically useless, which absolutely noone wants.

I think I remember reading somewhere that when the US Army tested the 17 pounder, they discovered when firing APDS, the gun only had about a 50% chance of hitting a Tiger-sized target at 500m?

[@duplicafly98]

that test was skewed, they wouldn't admit this british gun was better than any similar counterparts they had. Unfortunately, and like the retreating french for example, it's a lie that has been spread far and wide so much it supplanted the truth.

[@poguemahone5476]

That sounds accurate. I think the 1st round was good but then the barrel needed cleaning to get the accuracy back😅

6:03 bro shit his pants

[@chiefkalif9675]

Twitchy index? May be trigger finger. I think that's a symptom of carpel tunnel. I got it when I first started working as a butcher because I was pushing down on the knife with my index finger and no one told me I shouldn't do that until after I got the trigger finger. Got so bad at one point that I could not open my finger on its own, had to pry it open with my other hand. It went away on its own when I stopped holding knives wrong and got one of those keyboard cushions.

0:25 I swear I saw "money well spent" caption when I watched it for the first time.

[@malec8517]

It gets me that Spook cares more about missing the shot, then why his finger is twitching 🤣

[@alexroberts3634]

I've been feeling the pain with my Conqueror's APDS.

Gaijin artificially crippling the UK tree every chance they get

The Semovente 90/53 M41M! It's lovely and a wonderful TD to play even when up-tiered!

[@Britisher11]

Always makes my day to see a new video of yours get posted Spookston, you suffer a lot in this game to make such quality entertainment for us so the very least you deserve is appreciation for it! I'm a big Centurion fan personally but I can very much see and understand why none of its variants are the type of tank you like yourself, so hearing that the Cent Mk. 2 isn't an unmitigated disaster in your opinion is excellent news considering I'm trying to grind as far as I can for it before restoring to GE so as to not drive myself insane lmao As for suggestions since it's practically ritual for comments at this point, I'd be interested to see what you think of the Japanese STA series tanks, and the Type 61 they're prototypes for - they're clearly inspired by bits and pieces of the M41 and the M46, and it results in a bit of a curious set of hybrids that are distinctly American-styled and yet not quite the same either.

Centurion mk3 was a good tank at 6.7, but since they moved it to 7.3, the British tech tree is ended for me

[@NH-wc4nx]

and now they make another Centurrion that has stab at 6.3 (stab was the reason why the Mk3 was moved to 7.3)
