World of Tanks - Special 

"He's got a knife...that's not a knife, this is a knife." You've brought back very happy childhood memories, and I'd really like that brownie.

They don't like it being called gold ammo and yet the hit tracker that THEY PUT IN THE GAME colours "special" ammo......gold.

It's amazing hearing the difference between someone who is part of a CC program, and someone who no longer cares about one. I like the honesty better.

"No one uses Gold in Tier I-II Battles" looks like you haven't played that tier for a LOOONG time

Hey jingles...just wanna let ya know...the sound is way off on the first game and the gun was stuck in one position in the second game...the sound is also messed up on the second game as well

"Well, you know, it's his money." Not anymore it's not.

There seems to be a replay error at 13:17, because it seem as if someone fired a standard round in that battle. That has to be an error. Edit: Also, regarding the use of Gold in Lowtier games, I think that WG statistic is kinda outdated on that since I just grinded through low tiers on a techtree I hadn't played before and the ammount of Gold spamming Autocannon panzers in Lowtier games on the EU server is absolutely ridiculus currently.

(17:16) Jingles how is that "poor" guy on T110E3 fire 11 premium rounds if he only take 10 to the battle?! MAGIC!!!

I was just wondering what to watch on RU-vid and I guess this solves that question

even as beginner at WoT on 2016, i already realized that most people used prem/apcr/gold in everything worst of all im in sea server,where dignity or shame is non-existing. you can be in a tier 1 and be killed and bully by fully apcr loaded tank coz,most of them are bored or just venting anger from losing streak in tier 10s.

Gold ammo may account for only 5% of ammo fired in World of Tanks but it accounts for 80% of the revenue in World of Tanks!

Just as I got the IS4 as my first tier 10 they buffed the Maus by removing weakspots and Type 4 and 5 heavy got the same treatment I got into a hull down battle with a maus and realised I had to fire gold to have any hope of penning him. I’d need a high pen roll to get through his totally unangled turret front. He was doing nothing but angling the hull and blatting shots into my turret top he didn’t angle his turret at all, and despite my best efforts to wiggle, move and use the gun barrel to block it he could hit every now and again I lost that battle badly and realised “hmm, looks like I ground the wrong tank line for months” I stopped playing soon after, the “its an IS3 but better in every way that matters” Defender came out and Sir Foch rightly called out WG on their BS with the Chrysler heavy tank with 0 weakspots that you could only pen with gold from any non TD, looks like from there the decline has been constant

13:10 So he paid for the E100s shot, too. How generous of him.

Jingles: world of tanks is usually fun to play Since when was "carry or lose" a fun way to play? Don't get me wrong, winning against the odds is always nice. But when you have to do it for 80% of the matches you play, it feels a whole lot more like work

Guess i got my replay featured, i was the E3. I gotta say i used to basically always just shoot ap with the occasional gold shell here and there, but as of recent years everyone seems to shoot basically nothing but gold at me, i thought, why the hell not, fight fire with fire. Kinda sad the game has reached this point

Nothing like the calming voice of our Great Salty Overlord to go to bed to

So I have played WOWS for the past 18 months, recently started WOT for the past couple of months, I am now happier playing mostly tier 5 & 6 thanks Jingles!

This video just explained 50% of why i'd rather play ANYTHING ELSE than WOT

Just what I needed while battling insomnia across the pond. Well that and needed sleep. Amazing narration as always.

I know my sleep schedule is crap when I am still awake and Jingles posts a video. (I live in central United States)

Jingles missed the opportunity to call him Jack-O-pose

Jingles got this right. Playing for fun In WoT works if you gri.d to tier 7 & 8, maybe 9. Great tanks at those tiers and one doesn't need a bottomless supply of gold ammo.

This is what I love 2 battles in 1 video

Everybody talking about the audio... I am watching how jingles somehow messed up the Maths in the second tank destroyer game... where somehow a tank firing 10 gold shells at 5200 each came out to 11 gold shells worth of value... Note: Its because jingles counted a random other person's shot as well at 13:10 X3

In defense of the T-57, the first shot they hit giggitee with is actually AP. They then proceed to empty a clip of HEAT into him.

about to sleep -> jingles uploads -> no sleep for me

After 5 years I am watching the mighty again. Good to be back

Thank you Jingles for those entertaining replays.

When I played WOT I often ended up selling a tier 10 in a line to drop back down to the tier 9 because I won more matches and had more fun in the tier 9. (WZ-111-1-4 for example)

I love the Cobra Commander! I think he's hilarious.

The planners building the Tortoise -- "Well that's the body armour sorted. Now where do we put this biscuit tin?"

Just out of curiosity how old is the 5% statistic cause I can remeber the first time such a stat being given out was 2018 not saying it has changed much or the teir to tier spread has change (it's likely increased at higher tiers and marginally decreased at lower teirs) I'm only asking if that statistic is infact semi recent.

Relating to what Jingles said about enjoying the game but avoiding tier 10. Does anyone else just love playing vehicles around tier 5 and 6? My reason is that I just love the battles around that tier. They feel like the perfect balance of stupid fun, skilled teammates, and competitiveness imo

Understand the bigger knife reference? Jingles, according to my dad, it stemed from a distant relative of my family. She was working in a book shop when a guy tried to rob her at knife point. Family legend has it she said "oh, you have a knife, well I got a bigger one!" turned around and grabbed the cutting arm off a broken paper cutter, and chased him down the street with it. The story was featured in a news paper when the movie was being made and the producers decided to do a play on it. Again, can't confirm since I am too lazy to research it myself, but its fun to think its true. Any who, thanks for your content.

Great fun video. It would also be funny if you had calculated the cost of all the gold rounds the enemies fired at the E3 in the game, because that would also be a substantial amount :)

Ah yes the Tortoise commanders hatch. The "weakspot" that still seems to bounce anything that isn't a tier 10 loading gold

I love the Cobra commander, his lines are hilarious.

Thank you for your Work, Mr. Jingles

Shooting gold with E3 is actually a pretty good choice. 5200 credits for 750 damage is cheap compared to lets say 4800 credits for ~400 damage you get in most tanks. Not to talk about obj 140 which will lose credits even when shooting regular ammo.

The E3 player was a bad shot and literally didn't need half the gold rounds he fired.

Just what I needed after a long night shift on the railways

Jingles... can we get some more of the HMS TOG adventures?

So, if one shot costs 5200 and he got 10 rounds with him.... 10x5200=57200 right? Jingels, please never change!

04:05 "It's going to be really bad news for the Lowe". I was going to say "dead tanks don't complain" but this is WoT and the battlechat is full of those.

If I'm not mistaken, both the AE Phase 1 and the 703 II were basically pushed out into the line of fire by bunghole teammates in the ST-I and Lowe. Also, since I'm already typing, the Tortoise killed the Lowe well before the 50TP got to the corner.

I think they meant it to be the 5% of the tanks weight in gold ammo :D

Gotta love a game where it's easily possible to Win a match do really good in it and make a massive Dept at the end. 😎

3:30am still havent made it out of the coal mine, please send water and supplies overlord jingles

I like 'Cobra Commander' for one reason only @Jingles - GI Joe was a big part of my childhood :)

Got back into WoT recently. Platoon only, low tier only, mostly Luchs platoons. Fun again 😁

Somehow watching the Tortoise rolling along dishing destruction made me think "exterminate, exterminate!

Jingles you should see current ranked season. From all games I have played I was only once hit with standard ammo and then even that man switched to premium. And I’ve played more than I want to confess. You get like 4 Kranwagn’s on the ridge joined with two STB-1 and occasional vz55 plus someone takes a TD. Mostly if team splits you lose while other team pushes one side together and you get f-ed in 4 minutes. Than you have those that want to lose, separate and hide and snipe just to be top of the losing team to snatch the chevron. Finally you also get people that come with you and say they will support and then stop and pull back leaving you to die just to die one by one minute after it instead of pushing together with what was superior numbers on that flank. But no we are 6 tanks and they have 3 tanks so if we push it will hurt. Let’s stop and wait maybe we give the enemy the time that they kill our other flank with superior numbers and flank us and give us surprising but sex. And that all mostly happens in 3 to 5 minutes and with the golden shower rain of the premium ammo. Two STB-1 tanks hull down, who wins? One that brought more gold shells.

That low life e-100. While not having played WoT in years I was telling the dude to just slap a HE round on it. Should do the trick.

I love how jingles calmly says Gigity throughout the entire second battle lol

I have not touched any of my Tier 10 tanks in the last 3 months. And I have quite a few. Even Tier 9 is turning into a gold fiesta. Drive out in your E75 and see how many normal ammo you attract.

"So have you guessed what it is yet?" Is that a Rolf Harris reference? Seems you are having Aussie flashbacks.

Wow that battle chatter in the tortoise sure is something. As an American, I think it's fair to assume all British people actually sound like that and jingles uses a voice changer to keep the ruse up

Jingles you counted one of the E100's shots as one for the E3.. so the actual total would be 5200 less.

I have cobra commander on one of my lights (although it's a cold-war era tank which pc doesn't have). Never gets old

I wonder how that statistic has changed. When I first heard about the 5%, I thought it could be possible if you include all the autoloaders in tiers I-III, but nowadays, when I visit lower tiers, meeting a Pz. I C that is not firing full APCR is a rare ocassion.

Never mind Jingles, I'm sure that Serb was having a 'Jingles moment' and mixed up his figures. It's 5% standard ammo and 95% premium!

That ammo price counter reminded me of Harley Davidson & The Marlboro Man. Cost of Bullets scene.

I can tell Jingles isn't a CC anymore. Let the salt flow! ;)

I remember a few years back (4 i think) when i was playing my superpershing and people called me a cheater/goldspammer because apparently that is what you are when you have some knowledge of weakpoints and they do not and keep bouncing of the fake cupola .. also lovely video jingels :)

This is a great new episode of BLACKMAIL

Who remembers Team battles with 5 t8's and 2 tier ones? The amount of shame i dished out with my mighty T1 cunningham with browning gun. When they lose to a starter tank, world chat was still a thing. Even the enemy team dogs their teammate for losing a 1v1 to it. Anything that had less then 50mm i was there plinking away.

Tortoise goes so fast, the sound of the gun firing only gets to us a couple seconds later.

I usually avoid tier 10 because of this. I tried ranked battles this year and I found it an absolute shit show - you are either dead VERY quickly or the other team is dead very quickly. Would like to get to Division 2 to get my grubby little paws on the reward tanks - but I think my sanity would suffer too much. Oh well.

Might Jingles having watch a RU-vid video on naval operations just beforehand Desert Storm, I found out you used to be in the naval forces, while I was in the US Army. So now I watch your WoT's videos with a great deal more interest, Brother. By the way I'm IRISHTOM, CC of MLVET Clan. LOL HOOAH AATW!!!!

Glad I went back to armoured warfare It may be smaller, but damn if it doesn't just feel better

I love the gold spammers at T10 when I'm in a Russian/Chinese heavy - those plonkers who don't understand spaced armour.

I will say this though. Props to the tortoise player in this game, he did fabulous and deserves to be highlighted in your video. However, even though the tortoise does indeed have a cupola that can be penned, it is a rather small one which you can't even hope to deal with at over 100 metres. The tortoise according to recent statistics even in WGs own (rip vb addict, btw) the tank is actually overperforming for most people who get it, at about 4-5%. Meaning if say a 45% would be playing this, they could easily have this tank at 50% due to how grossly overtuned this thing is. But hey, if that isn't WoT, I don't know what is :D

Day 9: My research has finally has shown results! The bush somehow has a symbiotic relationship with the tank! Hopefully during the next few days I can get more results. Fortunately the bush hasn’t suspected a thing.

That first tank sounds like Cobra Commander... Edit: Thanks for the confirmation Jingles!

I'm a rare breed. Only fire gold when I desperately need it or I'm out of AP in me e3. Once had a battle (I believe sent in the replay to you 3x iver 3 months jingles). I bounced over 11k damage and never fired a single round of gold either

I did get the Dundee reference, although I remember it from Rifftrax who keep repeating it!

I regret selling my tortoise for the credits to afford the death-star, best 120mm in the game hands down

The man bounced a 155mm gold round on a shitbarn

Cobra voice over is clutch!

"Which is really likely to be bad news for the Lowe"... the Lowe...that Jacko killed before the 50TP ever got to that corner :O

Lying with stats is an art.

I assume the statistics about gold ammo vs. standard ammo count a tier 2-4 autocannon round the same as a tier 10 170mm round, despite the fact that a tank may fire several hundred of the former versus perhaps a dozen of the latter in a given battle.

4:03 strangely enough Jingles I don't think that 50TP is the worst news the Lowe got this match

Gotta love Cobra Commander TC. His voice takes me back to my childhood. 🐍

Can we get some love for the voice,the legend and pacifist - Cmdr Deluvian. Who embarks on the greatest journey in Elite Dangerous to day.

"Numbers do not lie, but its hella easy to lie with numbers."

Crocodile Dundee. Where's my brownie? Brownie point, you say? What? Do I need to spend the "Brownie Point" on a "Brownie Crate" for a chance to win a brownie?

Nice GOLD ammo you got there Wargambling!

anyone else having a huge ass sound problem with this video, like the sound of him shooting and kill something is a few seconds after he does it?

"that's not a knife" this is a knife" *thug proceeds to run away* classic comedy lol love those films

the cobra commander sounds like a bad audition for the role of skelletor, what Muppet at w.g thought that voice was a good idea?

... and then Jingles pulled a shiny big tank-destroyer from the back of his trousers...

This is why tier 9 is far more fun and much more enjoyable than tier 10 ...

"Well, I see you've played Knifey Spooney before"

Mighty Jingles Classic

That additional track from the t110E3 . looks like snowplower track lmao .

hahaaha i loved the cobra commander!

There are some fun tier 7 tanks that stay useful at tier 9. Gotta check out Sprocket where you can build your own tanks. The game isn't fully playable yet, but already quite fun to play with.

Never been this early for a Jingles video. Probably means I should be sleeping...

I fire very very few premium shells ( I try to play as much for free as I can) and I can still pen majority of tanks just fine, the key is firing at weak spots. I agree 80% of tier 10 players fire premium, though even in lower tiers, like 4-8, have been firing more premium the last few times ive played in them. Wouldnt be a bit surprised if the number of premium shell usage has climbed up closer to 25% overall. I try to win through skill while it seems others try to win with their bank account, no way some players can win at the rates they are without paying for all the credits and gold they purchase. I ripped through my credits super fast trying to do a few games with just premium shell loadouts and went at times 100k+ in the hole a game. Impossible to maintain without whipping out your bank card....
