Hey Spook, I'd like to see you play the Stug III A. It's a really overlooked low tier TD that can work as a brawler with decent armor, good mobility and a quick-reloading point-and click HEAT dispenser.
@@WyvernCV I was more referencing carcinisation, a phenomena where crabs have evolved separately dozens of times because it’s peak performance. A ton of things that are referred to as “crabs” or “crab-like” are actually distantly related.
It's kinda surreal seeing yourself get destroyed by Spookston. My heart stopped when I saw a M4 on the battlefield cuz I knew it would get the shot off first and I knew there was something up when he was decimating our team singlehandedly. Keep up the good work Spookston! I was GameCubeGuy in that first match
I don't have a specific vehicle in mind but I really like watching you play tanks you find funny. You cackling like an absolute goblin while sneaking around is MINT
The hull machine gun is covered up as well! No week zone on the Front Plate. The 500hp engine is nice too, the quickest sherman at low tier. Beast of a tank!
@@danawr45 It really isnt. Try to shoot it and enjoy 10000 non-pens and ricochets, even with panther by some reason (ESPECIALLY M51, i hate this mf and its bugged turret armor). Hull is weak and gives you one shot - one kill, and does not posses t34 bugged armor level qualities.
Hey spooks! Was wondering if you would play the breda 90/53? I got to use my rental today and consistently had games of 7-9 kills minimum in it. It's insanely fun. Only thing it lacks is depression, meaning it should make for a very happy video :)
That goes for the Vickers Mk. E, which introduced the T-26, a massive force of over 12k tanks if I remember correctly. It also happens to be in the Swedish Tech Tree, as the first tank of the Finnish subtree.
Introduced lol. Did you know that out of 6 soviet engineers who were in the UK Vickers factory not a single lived up to the euro ww2 start lol? (source Bratinskyi)
@@thedevilneveraskstwice7027 If I remember correctly, the T-26 was obsolete by WWII, and was many an interwar tank used in the Russo-Finnish war and a few others. While it would still see some action around that time, it was no longer top of the line.
In my opinion instead of playing a specific tank in war thunder, you should throw a curveball and play some random tank game. For instance find a Roblox game with tanks and play that. Extra points if you insist that it’s just a new warthunder update. Also love the content it is the only reason I play war thunder… so on second thought you are responsible for a large amount of the pain in my life.
Same thing for me, I think it's because it loses the sherman most known weak spot, the machine gun, and at this br not every tank pens a sherman easily on front
@@Neox_ Yep plus it's 3.7 right? so it's basically a 4.0 tank playing at 3.7 without its weak spot. Only thing is it's not got it's 50cal but the 50 cal is luxury anyway, survivability helps more surely? The only other stuff is superficial, the camo doesn't look great and it doesn't look as sexy as the other Shermans without it's machine guns.
Great day when Spookston uploads lol these Shermans are always fun. Btw Spookston you should play the Ratel 20 or 90 soon, its big get meh mobility but having an ATGM at 6.7 is great especially on factory map since your just tall enough to shoot it!
you should try out the Rooikat Mk.1D! -76mm apfsds is pain 76mm apfsds is pain 76mm apfsds is pain- i mean uh 76mm apfsds always one shots everything, kills crew members when hitting them directly 100% of the time, never disappears randomly, never bounces off of anything, and never fails to explode ammo after hitting it directly
After doing some digging, I realised you havent done a video on the 75/46 M43, and I think you would enjoy it. You will absolutely not regret playing the 75/46 M43 (Its a gremlin-small vehicle with surprisingly good gun-handling and enough armour on the superstructure to tell alot of smaller guns to go home and sleep it off)
I love this tank, getting the trifecta of major power mediums is really fun. I recommend trying the IKV103 and taking it into higher tiers. A little broken as 16 degrees of depression and 400mm pen heatfs at 4.0 but being really squishy
Speaking of Sweden getting tanks from other nations, they could get a Tiger II, as they got one after WWII for use as target practice. But for balance reasons, it's gonna be a premium, of course.
It feels weird actually being awake at this time and watching a spookston video when is releases.. not gonna complain though, it's fun! Also spook, I think you should try out some of the earlier Patton tanks, would love to see a video on an M46, since it's basically a modified Pershing!
A Sherman Can Be Used for Almost Anything, Clearing Mines, Shooting Stuff, For Floating I Mean Sinking, Setting Things on Fire, Rocketing Stuff, Dozing Stuff, Engineering Stuff, Heavy Armor Ones, Low Armor Ones, Big Gun Ones, Small Gun Ones, maybe even for food delivery. Anyways good video!
@@davidty2006 Well...other churchills with 76mm cannon could (historically and in wt) use american ammo. 4.7 one even has m61 shell from us, but it doesnt have a filler by some reason.
Spookston you should play the Eland 90 Mk.7 from the British tech tree its everything you love, being fast, small and just very funny, the only downside is the 90mm heat doesn't like to do damage sometimes
Of all the Shermans, this one's probably the best since it doesn't have the massive gaping weakspots on the front of the tank like most Shermans do. These things were horrendous to fight against when you're playing with T-34s, it's like seeing your imminent doom rapidly approaching you.
pretty great to hear someone having a good time :) People often trash talk shermans but they are definitely capable in the right hands! Fun vid, Mr Spookston
I love your content, Spookston. I love the memes, the audio ones and the visual ones. The way you talk about things and your sense of humor are so endearing, to me. I get excited when I see you've uploaded and often feel joy while watching your videos. I like the more technical videos, too. I appreciate what you do, man.
Warthunder: the game where the answer to the question "What tank am I going to face in this battle" technically can always be "A Sherman" no matter what nation you are playing or going against.
I only ever seem to have luck with properly busting barrels while playing Britain and aim for barrels as my opening shot pretty often if the enemy knows my position. Maybe solid shot just works better at breaking them or something
Day 11 You should play a tank with hydropneumatic suspension (recommend the MBT-70) But the catch is you have to drop the suspension as low as it can go for the whole match.
Hey, nice. I gave WT a try recently and this is the premium I allowed myself to buy just to help skip some stock grinds and such. It's got surprisingly good armor. The gun is so-so in regards to velocity and penetration, but when it rips it really rips.
My fav tank in game is the Chi-He, got 7-13 kills in 4 games (losing about 18) but still its so much fun when it works, that Japanese 57 just does work
genuinely my favorite sherman variant, probably the best of the ones armed with the 75mm. another really good amazing perfect vehicle that gets so many kills is the ratel 90, which i think you should play
Uptier to downtier in each class, SP: Light tank/Medium tank: 100/110/130/150. Heavy tank: 100/120/140/160. Tank destroyer: 90/100/110/130. SPAA: 70/90/100/110. Feel free to like for Spookers to see. Also thanks for the wonderful hoodie, sir.
I'm literally wearing Raycon E25s right now. I hate the awareness mode and reliability tends to crap out when thr battery gets low. But they're pretty inexpensive for the audio quality you get and they are incredibly comfortable.
i think it would be fun to see Spookston play the KV-2 but with the G-530 shell, which is very funni. And maybe an updated video of the Centurion Mk.5 AVRE/FV4005, cause big BESH round is basically a nuke fired from a cannon.
glad you covered this, I've been playing it for the last 2 months and am glad you pointed out the flaws and strengths so other dont have to lrarn the way i did lmao
As a Germany main he genuinely scares me. Especially the Swedish and premium Sherman’s. They are my worst nightmare. The reloading rate makes me panicky every time and I end up choking my shots 😭
the only issue i have with any of the shermans is the machine gun port you can always be one shot with that weak point so a tip for that always try and angle dont go face to face unless there is cover to block the machine gun port
Spookton, some people hate the Sherman because it has a dreadful spading experience. Unspaded the hull traverse is terrible any movement other than a straight line slows you to a crawl. It's a really nice tank fully spaded but some people get a bad impression early on.
Sherman tanks is one of my favorites tanks of ww2! I like all of the Sherman tanks that are in war thunder and all of the Sherman types! I just like the Sherman tanks it’s a nice tank to me
Have you seen that they basically gave the BMP-2M top attack now? With the new overpressure updates the missiles now also act as 152mm HE :/// And still its only 10.0..
3.7 sherman is so good! I dont have the sweeden yet, but will buy it when it's 50% off italian sherman is also good, I got ace crew with it at lvl 29 crew lol
