Yeah I've bought a few and been enraged when they gave them out for free. It's no a cheap game when you start chucking gold around. I used to platoon with a guy who said he'd paid over 2 grand in real money over the years. They should also let your premium days stack when you don't log in.
Hey there, Petty! Wasn't seriously considering purchasing this tank when I first heard about it, especially given the plethora of testimony regarding how *good* it was on PC, and how *trash* it would be on console. In your vid, you *told* us how bad the tank is, and then you *showed* is how bad the tank is. Thanks for that! No way in hell I'd buy this dung pile! Especially not at the price WG are demanding for it! Don't get me wrong... I enjoy a delightful romp in a derp tank as much as the next guy. But, the brief moments of fun are *not* worth being forced to endure pure drudgery for *most* of every game you play! You really helped me dodge a bullet (and a *ton* of incoming enemy tank rounds!) by posting this video! Rock on!!! 👍✌️
Glad you found your answer 😄👍 I like it because it's a derp tank (derp is love, derp is lyf) but it's not a good tank, can have massive games because of the alpha and of RNG is on your side... But that isn't often
@@Petty360 I get the derp part. As I said, I enjoy a romp in a derp tank as much as the next guy. I just don't wanna have to *work* to have fun! Thanks again for your helpful video, and for your reply! Rock on!!! 👍✌️
Thanks for getting the review out so quick. I was considering buying the tank but was waiting for a solid review first. I think that you’ve made my mind up for me and think that I’ll give this one a miss 👍
I really thought about spending money to buy it which I barely do but you made me think twice. Good thing I waited for your review always so nice to have such an early review 🙌
When I tested the tank, I absolutely, utterly hated it. They did not release it as tested, they pampered it a bit; still I did not get any fun from it. And I am eclectic in my choices 🙂
i don't play it all the time; but i really like the Eradicator.........seldom do i have a bad match with it. 3 shot autoloader - not a terribly long reload and is very good on ridgelines. it also has enough speed to flank slower heavies. edit: just like most british heavies - don't expose it's lower plate.
Eradicator is very good as pointed out, it's definitely up there. As a Heavy the Charlemagne isn't too bad, just have to get used to the bad Shell velocity. Paladin Is good aswell because of the great DPM but wouldn't say as good as Eradicator.
@@Petty360 agree on all your thoughts. i got the charlemagne a couple months ago on special offer (4550). i love using it on ridgelines for short to mid-range shots. what i like the most is, when top tier, how much block damage i can get with i! most tier 8 matches i usually end up with 2000-4000 block with it (it almost feels like a troll tank in that regard) just the other day, i used a ridgeline on great wall. i had 5 tanks shooting at me - i ended up killing 3 with 2900 damage and 5200 block before i was finally finished off! i've used the paladin when i got it for free -ended up selling it because it's similar to the eradicator and i liked the autoloader better. i do think the charlemagne is a solid tank; but, i never tell people to buy it. it's not for the average player. i think the eradicator is a little more "user friendly" for most people. hey, thanks for the reply - love the conversation!
Last night I rebought this tank, no equipment or crew and managed to swing a mastery badge and top gun 4k damage 2k assist if I could share my replay, I think there's some good tips in there
@@Petty360 it really can be 😂 I just wish LC didn’t get rid of the splash mechanics. There was totally a viable middle ground between what we had (broken HE) vs now (small buff but major nerf in other ways)
It can be a meme. But it's not good. It's not good on PC but it has an easier time penning it's HESH because of their HE mechanics not caring about spaced armour
it is basically like the type 5 heavy but the shells are different it's British and has an auto reloading system.or the exact opposite of the gsor 1008
Its literally more expensive then most tier 8 super heavies... Sheesh... Like I love derp here and there but there's a line wargaming. There's a line. (Not to mention terrible gun reload and aiming etc) Also since I've now maxed out my current heavy tank lines to tier 8 (the highest tier I usually go comfortably due to silver loss rate with 9 and 10 and premium spam) What do you recommend if I want a tank that's hard to kill (atleast frontally) and hits relatively hard? (Preferably tier 8 or lower) Keep in mind I've played some of the slowest tanks in game so I don't mind it aslong as it's basically impenetrable from the front
For a tier 8, the O-HO after the buffs is solid for blocking and it's a derp! The VK 100.01P Is also good for blocking damage too and hits hard with 440. Problem with 8s is 9s+10s will possibly bounce on the good armour with standard but Prem spam destroys well armoured tanks
I like this tank, it's fun and I play games to have fun. Although you get God like RNG compared to me, maybe mine would improve if I started making videos 🤣😂 Seriously though GG I haven't had a game 4k+ in it yet . Well played 👍
Not sure about that, in very certain circumstances it can be deadly but they don't arise all that often, they've just removed the ammo swapper from it too which hurts it
Why pay gold for any tank anymore? It will be given away free in an op or certainly will be on discount relatively soon.

@@orbtastic - you are so right about premium days!
Yeh pretty much, never a good idea to get it at full price, always wait for the big bundles that are cheaper to pick it up or individual discounts
@@Petty360 👍👍 absolutely!

Maybe at a big discount for memes but certainly not for 10-13k
I really thought about spending money to buy it which I barely do but you made me think twice. Good thing I waited for your review always so nice to have such an early review 🙌
If you want it for the memes, definitely wait for discount as 13k is a little too much
Us console users appreciate your honest review. Plus cheers for you, on the effort you put into your channel for this game .👍
Thankyou very much for watching my dude 👍😁
Thx for the quick video!
No problemo! 😄
GG, many thanks for a spot on review.!!👍👍
Thanks for watching 😄👍
Great review. I will wait for this one to go on sale for sure! ... and I love the new "Pesh" terminology. Def gonna use that one!
😂 Pesh is great right, I'm gonna PESH the poop outta ya! 🤣
When I tested the tank, I absolutely, utterly hated it. They did not release it as tested, they pampered it a bit; still I did not get any fun from it. And I am eclectic in my choices 🙂
It's the same as tested, horrid for the most part but memeworthily derpy
what best tier 8 heavy british tank in ur opinion many thanks im returning player so been out for while new sub plus one like

Looks like I’ll spend my gold on the season US light tank (T41E2?). I am happy with the GSOR as well, which I believe was your suggestion as well.
GSOR is nice for sure, the T41E1 is a beast of a light tank
Last night I rebought this tank, no equipment or crew and managed to swing a mastery badge and top gun 4k damage 2k assist if I could share my replay, I think there's some good tips in there
GG dude.
I have the tank on PC. Three-marked it because I am insane... But I would love to do it over again with a single-shot option. Kv2 type feel to it
It can be so many memes.
And with pc it's easier to pen peeps with the HE aswell because of the HE changes which makes it even memeier
@@Petty360 it really can be 😂 I just wish LC didn’t get rid of the splash mechanics. There was totally a viable middle ground between what we had (broken HE) vs now (small buff but major nerf in other ways)
Wish I would have seen this video before buying this PoS, thought it would be fun like the PC version... not so much!
It can be a meme. But it's not good.

it is basically like the type 5 heavy but the shells are different it's British and has an auto reloading system.or the exact opposite of the gsor 1008
A big derp gun with decent pen and horrific shell velocity essentially
yes sir
Now this looks like memes! 😂 Possibly I’ll get it now or wait till a later date
It's definitely memey, price is a bit much for it tho
I love this tank, I average over 3.5k and love bullying tier 10s 😂
It can be a funny meme for sure
Its literally more expensive then most tier 8 super heavies... Sheesh... Like I love derp here and there but there's a line wargaming. There's a line. (Not to mention terrible gun reload and aiming etc)

There is no such tank but the mutant 8 sounds like what you are looking for, has pref match making too
For a tier 8, the O-HO after the buffs is solid for blocking and it's a derp! The VK 100.01P Is also good for blocking damage too and hits hard with 440.
Problem with 8s is 9s+10s will possibly bounce on the good armour with standard but Prem spam destroys well armoured tanks
Ggs
men this should have been a reward tank no way in hell this trash is worth gold for real
Who knows, it may be someday knowing WG 🤷♂️
You are right. It's just a meme tank, not for me...
It's definitely for a meme nothing else
Remember: Derp is BACON...
True 🥓🥓🥓🥓
👍👍👍
I Just Won that tank on WG stream. But I only play CW 🤭
Nice! Just derp about in it and don't take it too seriously
I like this tank, it's fun and I play games to have fun.
Although you get God like RNG compared to me, maybe mine would improve if I started making videos 🤣😂
Seriously though GG I haven't had a game 4k+ in it yet . Well played 👍
It certainly can be fun if the RNG god's have you in their favour, with the alpha it has meme potential, but most about it is horrid
Good review..but definitely not for me...🤣🍺
Cheers mate 👍
I'm happy and disappointed at the same time..to play on ps5..so I'm not in your legs...but I would like to fight with you...so goes life...my friend
Thank you for the review. All my questions were answered. I bought it anyway because...well it's a derp gun and a unique tank.
I like it because Derp is love, derp is lyf.
But its not a good tank, just can be funny
Aim time and reload… it’s a big no no from me.
They're very long indeed
Gonna save up my gold for the double barrel tanks
Whenever they come (hopefully at somepoint soon!
Wg buff this horrible tank plz !! The accuracy is on par with the type 5 heavy the tank is so bad tbh
Memey at times (if RNG is with you) but yeh pretty bad
Shi*t this tank so broken
Not sure about that, in very certain circumstances it can be deadly but they don't arise all that often, they've just removed the ammo swapper from it too which hurts it
Its a lot of gold. To much gold. Maybe when it gets 50% or more off... And it seems so boring... so slow. To much time to attack.
Yeh, when it's on big discount could be worth just for memes, but not at full price
@@Petty360 im wrecking this tank. almost all are firing both shoots. its such a easy prey.
13 k gold for this shit ahaha
Ikr, too expensive
My first fight against it is me getting too shotted while I was in my conquer
Ouch town population you bro! 😅
