OH MY GOD, OKAY, IT'S HAPPENING!
EVERYBODY STAY CALM!
EVERYBODY STAY CALM!
Stay F***ing calm!!!
I AM NOT CALM RIGHT NOW!
THE HYPE IS REAL
WHAT'S THE PROCEDURE
no u stay ca1m
STAB: Don't worry it's not an instruction.
Me, A Scotsman: MY LIFE IS A LIE!!!
hi OddBawz :)
Odd plz do vid on marder, and make a wideo on com :)
Hey Odd! Good seeing you here
ODD! Didnt expect to see you here but this suprise is a welcome one to be sure.
OddbawZ!! Hi
Rank II-IV will be funny with how many shermans there will be to talk about lol
Yeah it would be.
And here we have, *another* Sherman
I get so much shit from my buddies and clan mates cause I love my Sherman's they don't with the argument being the gun which can be very funny to hear
@@slouchygames1923 The 75mm around the BRs it normally fights is great and the 76mm is amazing. I get so many one shot side shots and it reloads quicker than the German or Russian guns AND you almost always get the first shot
@@slouchygames1923 i hate trying to penetrate shermans, since when I cant hit their turret cheeks, I have to use APCR which has 0 post pen damage. Currently I'm on BR 3.0 with my StuH 42 G and Panzer 3 M and H
tl;dr: i hate shermans
“The M22 doesn’t have much armor”
Me: bouncing panther rounds while drifting around a tiger
no armor best armor
That thing can bounce dm53 like it’s nothing
GAS GAS GAS GOTTA STEEP ON THE GAS
i have bounce a 88 in my m22 hell i never play it at 2.0 to boring so i play it at 4plus
edit have a king tiger and is2 kill on it
@@HeadsDisplay you need panthers too lol there panick and later anger is hilarious
I once watched an LVT take several APFSDS without dying in custom battles. I've never been so scared in my life.
What br was the lvt playing
@@ashbanaziz idfk, but that shit was terrifying
@@onlyrushb6428 Run
The LVT is in the top 5 for being the most underestimated reserve in the game.
your bullshitting, it gets hullbroken by apfsds but yea its a good ass tank
Wouldn't mind 'Tank Recognition' seeing how i have that 'its a tiger' syndrome.
Same here, a while back I was playing Sim, and blew a friendly P-38T to pieces cause I thought it was a BT-7
Just go into the hanger and preview the vehicles you’ll likely face and memorise the silhouettes. You have a great tool at your disposal.
@@sargesacker2599 sounds so easy...unless you have terrible memory XD
@@handtomouth4690 Mainly try and remember the colors Germans are gray,Japan is a greenish. This works in Sim for me anyway.
@@CJRacing57 Russia also likes their greens though
The man's just clubbing the poor, defenceless, low tier players
LOL ur username
Edit: if this seems mean, I didn’t mean for it to be, I just think it is genuinely funny
the RBT-5s tho
always the 3rd rbt-5 that gets you
Or players like me who hasn't even started on the US tech tree
*16 kills*
The Stuarts in this tree are all seal-clubbers of the highest order when used by experienced players. I can't tell you how much fun I had going back and spading the old American (and British) lineups that I had previously only played for a short time. Stuarts are probably now my favorite reserve-tier tank in the entire game.
it's really just like the t34s, reliable and fast with many more to come.
I was gifted a talisman for the M5A1 and it's always my go-to when RP and SL grinding.
@@TheZod00 See, I got one for the fucking Tetrarch, the hell is wrong with me and my luck?
BT5 and BT7 are my favorite Tier 1s
@@josephgraham3117 BTs are great, but they don't have stabilizers, and that can make all the difference most of the time. BTs are just faster with a punchier gun and APHE. Also extremely fun.
5:50 after the end of the US tree and the Addendum, I vote we get a video that's just Oxy listing where to shoot on each tank to take out the driver and gunner
Most often its best to shoot right of the barrel first or through the turret ring. Alternatively disable the barrel.
To imobelize I actually prefer aiming for tracks. Or wreck the gearbox if it's front mounted.
Of course superior positionig will give you a shot at the biggest weakpoint.... the sides.
@@Darilon12 I mean Oxy did explain the general spots to aim for but I was more leaning into the fact that we like hours-long oxy videos (for example I’d love to get an annual/semiannual Addendum series where he talks about vehicles that have been added, BR changes and his new lineups, etc.) so one where he just goes over every driver/gunner shot would be welcome
@@sentinelxcix2526
Speak for yourself
@@Darilon12 my rule of thumb is “when in doubt, turret ring it out!”
@@GoodlyData86596 for moving targets I'd say:
"First shoot the tracks, turret ring is next."
HE UPLOADED JUST AS I STARTED WATCHING HIM AGAIN
Same
LET'S GO , been waiting for this since I watched Britain!!!
He's returned! Welcome back, Oxy!
I’ve never played America, nevertheless, still gonna watch it!
You're lucky
Me personally, as a Russia-Main-Player, would definitely recommend trying it out, it's quite fun
Complete opposite: ive unlocked most of the tech tree but im still watching this
America is so trash don’t play it
@@dhirpatel7187 I’m just bored and enjoy his vids lol
14:35 all hail the M2, king of the machine gun!
I actually think tank recognition could be very handy, specifically for Russian tanks in the upper tiers. Between 8.0 and 10.0, the US tiers I play somewhat the most, I have trouble sometimes differentiating the various soup-bowl turreted Russian MBTs.
I have a simple guide, if it looks Russian, pen the lower front plate or shoot the barrel, then figure out if the rest can be penned
Worth mentioning is that the F3F-2 keeps its speed like crazy for some reason. So much so that a worthy strategy is to fly into the battlefield, turn off the engine so that enemies don't hear you (essentially turning a plane into a glider), throw two bombs through the enemy hatch, and then run away before the enemies know what has happened. It's an incredibly fun style of play, and it can also be quite effective
Ps: Ok, maybe not the speed. The lift. The lift is insane
When I was in Canadian Armoured Recce, training on enemy vehicle recognition was dominant so as a relatively new WT player, I'm interested in learning that recognition aspect in everything pre and post '70s and '80s. So, yes please. ;)
2:18
two minutes in and ive already fucking lost it
why
I've been waiting for this. LET'S GOOOOOO!
Just when I started playing America. Gramercy!
Your quality comes through again. Thank you for another superb video! I have been playing WT for 6 years and I still find this more then useful.
A tank recognition guide would be very useful in distinguishing between different variants of the same tanks Oxy, especially for intermediate players who have already grasped the basics and are starting to learn about situational differences. Great idea!
When the world needed him the most, he came back.
Thank you for these reviews Oxy. They have been extremely helpful for me as a newer player!!!
@Gary 'Roach' Sanderson germany for me.
@Gary 'Roach' Sanderson No worries. I too chose Germany.
@Gary 'Roach' Sanderson Yeah, Some of them are brutal!
@Gary 'Roach' Sanderson I started with America, switched to Germany and mained that for a while...started Russia at some point, then was playing British tanks just as they came out. All while playing planes as well.
Now I've spread myself out between US, German, Russian, British, and Japanese tanks, US and German aircraft, and US, German, Russian, and Japanese bluewater fleet...yeah I play a lot of stuff, lol
Been stuck at Tier 5 German tanks for years now, not because of struggle, but amount of new stuff. I had just gotten the Maus just before Tier 6 vehicles came out. I had skipped the medium tank line for the most part at that point, so I had to go back and grind up through that whole tree(spading as much as I can because that's what I do) by the time I was done with that, Tier 7 had been out I think. And everytime I'm about to move up into Tier 6 a new Tier 5 German vehicle comes out, this time the Marder. I could easily skip them, but the completionist in me won't, lol. I guess technically I finally have stepped into Tier 6 now though because I'm using the 8.3 M48 now.
Sorry for random paragraphs of reminiscing, lol
Hell yeah, this is gonna be nice to listen to
I would love for you to cover the air trees as well with the same style, even though you are mostly a ground player.
37:50
YES! Absolutely! i'm an arcade scrub and this information would help me break into RB matches!!
Oh boy I'm here for this. Highest country I have, A lot of tanks I love and hate, I'm excited to hear your opinion on some of my favorites.
Well, my Saturday just got leagues better. Thank you Oxy!
Yes! Been waiting for this :)
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONGGG THANKYOUUUU
I absolutely love the stuarts, flanking and running around like usain bolt with a gun
26:12 Having "the drop on the enemy" timed for a real drop of a tank is precious
I'm a bit late to the party but I love these videos and am glad you can make them again, at the same time my gameplay improved after implementing some of the advice you gave with your Russian Ground forces review videos so thank you, keep up the great work and Congratulations on making it past 50k subs!
You nailed the part about the M2A2 a lot of players often tend to forget that sometimes some vehicles are fairly better than others and altough it can be frustrating when you are starting you shouldnt really feel bad for "losing" against them, Instead you should focus on how to beat them despite the odds (Whenever possible as of course there are times you just cant) and enjoying that feeling when you do
Love how you're not cutting corners even in really low tiers.
I would love to see a recognition guide btw
this is your first video that im watching and its awesome. Keep up the great work!!! :)
My great uncle was enlisted in the Marine Corps, and I believe he was a gunner for an LVT(A)(4).
He described "An amphibious tank with thin armor, incapable of defending against anything stronger than a machinegun. Even a .50 at the right angle could make it through. We had a howitzer, and our job was to float off the coast with a dozen other tanks, and shell the island one end to the other while the infantry came in to take the land we'd destroyed."
After the war he became a missionary in the Philippines, mostly doing humanitarian work. That was where he met his wife, who he'd live with until they both passed away last year.
I wish I'd had the chance to talk to him more, not just about the war but the world and how it was back then.
He seemed like a great man, who despite having no choice but to fight, still wanted to repair the damage he'd inflicted to those islands. It was his life's work, and only stopped when he and his wife were debilitated by various health issues.
i love playing the m2a4 and m3 super aggressively rush firing and backing off flanking people its a super fun tank. Thank you for your videos i listen too them over and over when im researching just makes itn easier to remember things.
Much anticipated as well as appreciated Oxy!
wow thanks this helped a lot, im pretty new to war thunder and was always dieing but the deff helped
your reflexes with regards to shot placement depending on target is so impressive
LETS GOOOO
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR FOREVER
I just have to say thank you for all the hard f'n work you put into these video's. Also, finally, the American ranks. 👍
"Don't take the Catalina into GRB" My man, have you SEEN what 4 sea mines can do to a team?
I just started playing the Germans and was having trouble until I found your videos. My buddy is wanting to start up the US tree so glad your back with these, been looking forward to it. Thanks for all the hard work.
43:41 I like how the dude is just chilling in the back
Yes!!! Thank you, Oxy! I've watched every one of these videos so far and have been eagerly awaiting your US ones. Once again, you video was excellent! Cheers, mate! o7
Yay new Oxy vid! Great to see you back
26:09 That kill was smooth af
Watching Oxy play makes me mad/jealous/ happy all at the same time. Not really so much mad just jealous I can't do 1/10 of what he does and happy because he's so much fun to watch. Great work as usual Oxy.
As a player since 2013 and only played planes, this is nice for finally getting into ground forces. Subed
Awesome video, can't wait for the rest of the series!
YES! IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! Great video as always, Oxy. Can’t wait for Rank II and beyond!
I was no joke looking on your chanel for this video yesterday, and now it's here lol
When I first started playing America was the first ground tech tree I ever played. I got the M13 without even knowing what an SPAA was, and so i used it like I used every other vehicle I had back then, to fight tanks, and it actually worked really well. I would often find myself on the enemy flanks just absolutely destroying everything through their rear armour and I didn’t even realize it was supposed to be for planes until I had been playing the game for a while longer.
We love you oxy you work hard for us and you deserve all the support you get.
Finally, the American Tech tree. Thanks Oxy, I've been waiting since the first Ground Forces Review and Analysis.
So entertaining to listen to. Thanks for the great video ❤!
Love what you're doing m8. Keep up the amazing work!
Oh yes, the legend is back!
I love your format. Over explain early so you can save time later is smart. Intro to game videos are tedious because they often repeat themselves and bore the viewer. 10/10 job
The return of the King
I like the idea of a tank identification guide. Being an exclusively high-top tier player now, I still quite like a good bit of seal clubbing myself and a guide like that would have some interesting tidbits of knowledge :3
I've been waiting for this for a long time
26:11 "Getting the Drop" on your enemy. Terrific bit there. :)
Hidden gem of war thunder content youtube channel.
I was always very late to watch the other tech trees and I'm extremely happy that it's continuing. Great upload.
Great to see you back!
Welcome back! We love you and missed you, glad you're back making vids. Hope everyone okay outside of the Internet
for how good the video is I am very surprised that you only have 50 000 subs , you deserve more and I hope you can get to 100 000 subs.
M13 is great, I´ve had loads of fun - and kills with it. Much more used to fiftys than 20mm.. I barely shoot down aircraft with those.. Good analysis.
Same with the M2A2 - I love it! Loads of fun tanks here - the M3 GMC is another fav, especially now that you can get a 6s reload - and not 10 as it used to be.. Very nice to knock stuff out with!
27:32 I love this part hahaha
I just started playing the US so I could get the Independence day decal. (started the US tree from scratch with 5 hours notice before the task closed and got the decal with 8 seconds to spare haha) And I noticed the EXACT thing you are talking about here with the M2A2. It's just a heck of a lot of fun, and every kill is so much more satisfying because objectively you shouldn't really be doing well in it. Plus I don't even care when I get killed because it's half expected anyway. It's also GREAT for getting early caps and setting up for an ambush when other light enemy vehicles come to de-cap at the start of the match.
A VERY fun low tier vehicle.
These vids are great for new plays, thanks so much.
I'm so happy you're continuing this series!!
I missed the M8 Greyhound event by 20 minutes in the 5th year anniversary, and I'll never get over it
@Daniel Walder I can't put the chinese greyhound up for sale on the marketplace for loads of money
Thank you for posting this, I always enjoy your analysis, wit, and insights! You asked if we would be interested in seeing a video on tank recognition, count me as a yes!
That guide would be awesome, especially with the T-34s and Panthers!
I've been looking forward to this.
Yay! American tech tree... I was looking forward to this to see ur verdict on the M8A1 bc I have been having very mixed success on it, so wanted to see the play style. Thank you!
Finally we are blessed by your great advices) Thanks a lot for this series, we all waited for it)
Hell yeah another oxy video about damn time!
I was not expecting you to talk about aviation rank I as well. That was a pleasant surprise! Considering I’m more of an Air RB person.
Thanks! This video will help a lot since I never use ground forces. Another thanks for the line up, I always over think it 😅
Awesome video man! Subscribing and I hope to see more videos like this
Sweet video man, just couldn't fall asleep to it because of the wt music
Vehicle identification guides sound like a splendid idea. There aren’t really enough relevant newbie guides for war thunder around.
yess. YESSS. YESSSSSS. My fav country is now finally be featured !!!!
tbh you explain techniques so well to new players in your new vids
This man deserves more subs
Ngl the m2 is funny cuz of all the machine guns
YES BEEN WAITING FOR THIS.
A few days ago I was randomly wondering when the next one of these was coming. Hype.
YOU DO NOT REALIZE HOW UNDERRATED YOU ARE
You deserve the subs man
All of these videos are great
21:35 “Boss, those are just kids...”
What perfect timing, was planning to grind USA as my first tech tree but the first tank's guns make me cry
I never clicked so fast but had to watch on parts since I didn't have enough time to binge it all.
You're the best Oxy, I just got into war thunder a few weeks ago. And these guides have helped a lot! Wish I found them earlier lol.
Nice video as per usual! and very informative!
Oh, this is going to be good.
