@@Nyx_2142 The problem is the Maus *is* basically impossible to balance. It's armor is all but impenetrable to most tanks until you get to 7.7+, and then it becomes irrelevant, while its guns delete anything save for modern tanks and late soviet heavy tanks. Add on the fact that only one was ever built and it never saw combat due to logistical infeasibility and Germany having all but lost by the time it was complete, and the Maus never should have been added to the game in the first place. It, and other one-off prototypes or complete fantasy vehicles (Tiger II 10.5, Panther II, E-100, Obj 120, Coelian, etc.) should never have been added to the game in the first place.

From 4:51 to 8:50 that Normandy street fight was amazing. I was the T-54 and IS-2. I was in a squad with friends and we ran into you guys. It was such an epic battle and a fun match. Thank you TBLF for the epic battle. o7
The thing about street fights: The street always wins. Also, it was really hilarious to see 2 Mauses (Mais?), a 15cm TD, and a German M47 getting held up by a Foch, an AVRE, a BMP and an IS-3, all with eyes.
Me too. Its coming back once a year. Probably this December, so hurry to that 7.7 :D (if you put more than 1 rp into it you keep it) I admit its not great, but so unique.
Lolli: “You survived that, but Ham didn’t.” That’s because Hambone took it right in the dome and Bo got a near miss. Gotta remember they would prefer a Ham sandwich over a Bo-logna sandwich LOL 😆
That encounter with the foch... Incredibly frustrating that a 128 mm shell bounces off harmlessly. Especially considering that the gun spends most of its time masquerading as broomstick.
Ah the majestic Maus... Watch in awe as it lumbers up the battlefield so it can get shot in the barrel and immediately lose its ability to do battle. Magnificent.
That feeling when you refresh RUclips to see new "Recommended Videos" and Bo's new vid appears like a wild bear from bushes during camp in canadian forest. Just one minute ago. Did you realize, that if you turn your turret back, you've got Maus "Forward Turret" version from your Maus "Backward Turret"? :D
I've shot at the scope multiple times when we made this video, the only thing I was able to get out of it was a commander b/c minimal spalling. We later after the battle used the armor analyzer on the Foch and it really wasn't great. The best place to shoot was the turret roof right above the gun, which is a hard shot in itself.
@@Hambone001 I mean it's WT but it used to be a one-shot spot have to check it myself than EDIT: just checked it out and yes you only get the commander if you fire at it but if you aim for the part which is in between the optics and the roof you can set of the shells fuse which sets of the ammo and/or gets the crew Its pure RNG tho
Yknow, this is what it feels like to be in a jumbo at 5.0; you can bounce almost anything from the front, and with proper angling from the back to, but when someone gets to close or has a m18 (basically the object 120 of that br) your fked.
OP downtiered with a few tanks able to penetrate it if they know where and how and have the chance to do it (even fewer if we consider it from the front ofc), not so much when uptiered, yet early Churchills and Gun Carrier and several other heavies dominating downtiered even more, and suffering even worse when uptiered are still in the game, and they are not as iconic or able to bring in players and customers as Maus. Gaijin shooting their foot off.
See??? Why did Gaijin think that they had to get rid of the Maus? Its actually not easy to use and gets penned. Besides, there is a complete Maus in a museum in Russia. They slapped it together with Flex tape..
Even when they let the Maus play they put it against future tanks that it never would have faced as it was. Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus was a German World War II super-heavy tank completed in late 1944 the AMX 50 after its intended weight class, was delivered in 1949, The prototypes were tested between 1950 and 1952. he IS-4 Production started in 1946, too late for World War II. In October 1949, the SU-100P, together with the SU-152G and the SU-152P took part in state trials, which revealed flaws in the chassis of the SU-100P. Improvements of the chassis and elimination of identified flaws continued until June 1955,
7:50 That’s pretty much how every single “that’s what...” point goes. Big barrels and big tanks but nothing to show for them. The bigger you are the less your ability to do damage lol
Strange that a large section of the soviet tree is made up of prototypes but the Maus is removed. The E-100 you need a loan to buy on market to get, one would get the impression of Soviet Bias or something. When you fight a T34 you know it's Soviet bias for sure.
you should keep your turret angled when not able to fire / reloading or whatever you're just staring at the enemy , allowing him easy shots on your turret face after you fire , angle your turret tank shell by tricking them to fire at the well angled turret after they fire , you turn and eliminate them
This tactic relies on enemies not understanding how to attack a Maus. If you meet a smart enemy, they're not going to shoot the angled armor. They're going to shoot the turret cheeks or gun barrel.
Yea I mentioned it on the sands of sinai match when I said I need to get better habits with the Maus. I have a habit of pre placing my barrel and trying to figure out where I want to aim while the gun is reloading or re positioning. Just a habit from playing other tanks. This was actually my first time back in the Maus in 4 1/2 years lol
I was on a map in my t34 and there were 3 maus on the c point, can’t remember the name of the map, the maus looked like you guys, I was hoping to be in the video but I wasn’t 😂
You guys have been requesting us to dust off the Maus and here it is! What would you like to see next?

Half of Russian tech tree: *inconspicuous whistle*
Their other excuse was it not fitting in the BR system for matchmaking. The same BR system people have begged them to fix for years. They've fallen victim to the same power creep that WoT has.
Then they leave the Maus to fight things from 1972. That is just wrong.

8:41 The eyes of Death
You know a tank is heavy when it has 8 reverse gears.
@Johan Jacobs if it was French it would only have 1 forward gear though, instead the enemy came from behind
“We have 12 reverse gears, ‘cause we like to get out of trouble faster than we got into it”
The Germans thought they created a tank to turn the tide of WW2.
They had no idea that they actually created a time machine to 1960’s armored warfare.
5:48 is the most terrifying sight I’ve ever seen, a Foch, AVRE, bmp3 and an is3 down the same road!?!
*"You came to the wrong neighbourhood bud!" Pulls out Stalinium knife*
and they have eyes to judge you
It's just like that scene from saving Pvt ryan when the guy sits and the wall comes down and they have a standoff against the wounded Germans😂😂
The eyes glaring back made it even more terrifying
I was at the back with a cent. Mk 10
I wish I could've gotten the Maus...only reason I started playing War Thunder...much sadness...
me to but luckaly i got it jut barrely tho
Just abuse the T35 in BR 1.3 , its waaay more fun to play than the Maus... You're literally a goliath amongst a bunch of little ass tanks...

Shame I couldn't get the Maus before it got removed
Honestly it ain’t worth it right now
Just unninstall this stupid game, let giajin go to hell where they belong... hell and bankruptcy...
Say what you want about World of Tanks, at least they keep around fun ground vehicles without subjective interpretation of what's "historical."
@@Zorro9129 They have said there tanks were historical when a lot of them aren't.
I like how you don't angle your turret during your main gun reload. Every OG MAUS player must be disappointed.
That encounter with the foch... Incredibly frustrating that a 128 mm shell bounces off harmlessly. Especially considering that the gun spends most of its time masquerading as broomstick.
15:43 bo: “oh look bombs bounced off me”
Ham: “wha- aHHHhHhHH”
Man this thing is going to be come rare now isn’t it? I don’t think it’s avalable on the tech tree anymore if you didn’t have it already is it?
Correct they took it and a couple others out and have seemed to replace them with East/West German Cold War Vehicles.
Love how maus barrel is made of cardboard but IS4 can shrug off a 128mm to the face no problems...

7:18 1.3 vs 7.3 on the kill feed? Wow!
The wiggles gave me the giggles.
Shot Of The Day award goes to Hambone for this video, I think.
We have been blessed, LONG LIVE MAUS
That missile trade at the end was amazing. Impeccable job as always Bo and co.
Funny how literally EVERYTHING broke on Bo, but NOT ONE of his crew got hit. Maus is stronk.
The chaos created by the Maus is sometimes either underwhelming or oh god how do we kill it. Great video as always
My god. It's beautiful. Good job Bo and crew, I hope it wasn't too hard to get all the footage for this!
I would pay good money for them to implement a TANK only mode
Bo must have Buddha-level patience to put up with Hambone's constant blocking and ramming.
Thank you god bless for posting another Mause video
It sucks that they removed the maus I was really hoping to get it even tho at the time I was only rank 2 in the tech tree at the time so sad.
They saved you alot of frustration by removing it TBH, think was the worst tank I ever unlocked. Pretty much useless.
@@BType13X2 I can see that since you would need your team mates and also getting bomb all the time.
