Phly's videos are like fast food ads. They make the product look absolutely amazing after several dozen takes... only for the reality to hit you like a brick once you get to the actual product...
Perfect example of a certified Gaijin moment: When Phly gets a collateral on a Object 120 and a IS-2 but then the next clip shows a single sprocket saving another IS-2. Edit: Put the correct tank name.
@@csmitty2917 Ah ok thanks, I'm still unable to decipher vehicles from a glance and commit a bunch of them to memory unlike most WT players lol. I'll change it
@@csmitty2917 Yeah i see that now. Unfortunately, I still am not at a high enough BR to even think about IS-2's are anything of the sort so its less familiar for me. Still suffering in American Ground 3.7
Actually there are some areas in that plate under the sprockets of the M60 where the armour is only 38 mm. Another youtuber had the same issue when playing the M728 and then he discovered that on the protection analysis.
If only they gave APCR any semblance of angled performance like it had IRL. I love losing half my pen at a 15 degree angle! Still love it though. Mad props to you for doing so well with it.
Things like Phly's last match in the video are why I still play and have phun in War Thunder. Don't care if it happens on my team or the enemy's, doesn't fail from almost killing me with laughter ... That and awesome sim battles dogfights
Indeed, everyone knows the strongest, densest material in all of the universe is a Russian tank sprocket/road wheel. ;) And not because it's biased BS programming, no.
That last match shows just how much the scores need rebalancing for holding positions. You can lock down a point the entire game and get almost nothing for it.
Yeah, I discovered how well APCR was working recently when I started playing my M26 again and loaded APCR against the upper plate of a panther and managed to one shot the thing
the biggest problem with apcr is that its super niche. there are very few matchups where the main round of a tank wont pen, but apcr has enough extra to get you there. most of the time if your main round wont pen, having 20mm or so extra isn't going to help. so apcr only really helps for situations where your main round is JUST BARELY not penning.
@@foxboy64 In my experience, it happens more frequently than you’d think. Something that your main round would normally pen is just slightly angled, and your APCR will still go through. “A physicist will tell you something has million to one odds. A magician will tell you million to one odds crop up nine times out of ten.”
Ahhh i just love every new video, me going into yt, sees a new Phlydaily vid «whoooo ahh time to actually like wt»😂😂😂 ayooo u putting out a friday phly thing forgot what it was called😂😂😂?
fun fact. the APCR only works well on that particular M48 phly is playing there.. i still remember grinding me through that tank. i love the M43 M48 and M60 tanks especially those who are altered / modernized. and the german 7.3 is the only tank where the APCR work almost like a ballistic capped shell... i remember to this day that i was considering investing some gold to get to the M82 round.. untill i played the first battle in it. got out with 7 kills 4 assists and 2 caps.
NGL, what you did on Fire Arc, I've done on one of the weird single cap versions of Mozdok. Just quick capped the A point with an RU-251, hugged a building, popped smoke and kept refilling it. Pretty boring match but we won.
38th Parallel Map, if you're spawning from the south side, SMOKE THE C-RIDGE. Great way to bring the snipers out from behind the rocks while you cap the C point. Have a few tanks flank to the right for easy(er) kills.
War thunder chat is dead 98% of the time. I'm willing to bet it didn't go wild and was totally dead. If you care enough you can find phlys replay on the server and watch that exact game which will give you all squad/team/all messages for both sides
That's funny cause I think I figured this out the other day too. I ran out of APHEBC and used my APCR and got some crazy kills. Was like wow wtf is going on.
The best Vehicle for the dont be spotted challenge is the Churchill I. With smoke in the hull gun combined with lots of smoke grenades for its launcher you can essentially lay a constant path of thick smoke like its name sake with a cigar.
Your smoke rounds bit; when you laughed and started to cough all I could think of was, man he’s taking the snoop dog approach and putting more than smoke in those rounds 😏
I think I got a contact-high, from how much you smoked up on that third game! 🤣 _"Smoke Warfare"_ indeed! Phlynanigans at their *_finest!_* hahaha ❤️🤘 Shame the M22 doesn't have smoke rounds... 😏
Hi Phly ! As always lovely content , i do a game since some month and after asking around me nobody play that game so I think I imaginated a game myself The Ace Game ( War Thunder ) you are a young pilot in WW2 that try to be an pilot with a high kill board rules: - keep the same plane , can chance camo -has to be played in RB -each kills you make increase your board -to be counted in your board : your plane has to survive and if you get shotdown your pilot has to eject in time each death reset the board -the game stop too when your pilot eject in occupied territory ( POW ) -you can play that game in squad but all members of the squad should have the same model of plane -the game continue in time till your pilot live and can be played over a year if your pilot didn't die -the game kill board count only : -player plane -AI -ground target -naval when your game is over you can give a name to your pilot like '' Ivan fuckliovitch '' your board will say how many battle you survived how many time you got shotdown and how many target you destroyed player kills count has 1.5x more than bots ''exemple'' Ivan fuckliovitch -Yak-3 pilot 5 kills player /3 plane-bot so 5x1.5= 7.5= (7+3) kills and 1 un-confirmed 23 ground target and 2 ships lasted 3 battles = 3 months consider it as a '' new game mode ''
the last part, i do that with the sarc-c and 6punder... lol ive capped a few like this just smoke every where lol, but he is my fave.. apcr can be good but not great.
Thanks PhlyDaily! Leveling this damn leKPz with starting APCR shells was brutal til I switched it up to realistic battles. Thanks for the content! Now I’m playing realistic all the time!!
Good to see you find ways to have fun in a 'Game'. I also have a more rewarding game when I'm doing dumb shit just for me and challenges like hold 'W' with the Jagtiger.
I think your video's need to come with a warning that we are about to get a enter the phly zone and catch a glimpse of the mind of Phlydaily. Scary, glorious and twisted funny. Thanks for the vid.
Used that same smoke strat to cross Mozdok without getting killed, tho granted I wasn't so silly as to just sit on the point all match. It's so useful if only people could appreciate it.
@@petrkdn8224 You know just an APCR Shell which is supposed to struggle with anything angled going trough what is essentially a T54s upper front plate. Seems legit.
@Adam Rousek su 122 54 has 10° less angled plate, and also this is cold war apcr, which performs better than we2 era apcr because it uses tungsten alloy instead do tungsten carbide. Shell materials are accounted for, there is steel apfsds modelled in the game as well
I don't think they did, I'd be happy if you could point to the source of that information. They did (and still do) however use white phosphorus that can inflict horrible burns and is as much an incendiary weapon as it is a smoke source.

Actually there are some areas in that plate under the sprockets of the M60 where the armour is only 38 mm. Another youtuber had the same issue when playing the M728 and then he discovered that on the protection analysis.

i have never seen APCR perform this well, good on you phly!
Yeah, I discovered how well APCR was working recently when I started playing my M26 again and loaded APCR against the upper plate of a panther and managed to one shot the thing
Wtf is this RUclips update I can’t put the video at anything over 480p 😂😂
The APCR is actually kinda nessecary on the high tier 90mm m3 american Shermans since the APHE doesn't cut it against tigers and panthers.
HILARIOUS! The Music was PERFECT
In Fire Arc Phly reminded me of the medic guy from Hacksaw Ridge movie 😂
APCR is situationally powerful. I pretty much always bring a couple of them if they’re available, just to crack the harder targets.

I have used the smoke strategy before. It works very well in small alleys when you have something to hide behind

I remember not long ago where spalling didn't happen bellow 60mm from what i odserved but it got fixed.

Hi Phly ! As always lovely content , i do a game since some month and after asking around me nobody play that game so I think I imaginated a game myself
The Ace Game ( War Thunder )
you are a young pilot in WW2 that try to be an pilot with a high kill board
rules:
- keep the same plane , can chance camo
-has to be played in RB
-each kills you make increase your board
-to be counted in your board :
your plane has to survive and if you get shotdown your pilot has to eject in time
each death reset the board
-the game stop too when your pilot eject in occupied territory ( POW )
-you can play that game in squad but all members of the squad should have the same model of plane
-the game continue in time till your pilot live and can be played over a year if your pilot didn't die
-the game kill board count only :
-player plane
-AI
-ground target
-naval
when your game is over you can give a name to your pilot like '' Ivan fuckliovitch ''
your board will say how many battle you survived
how many time you got shotdown and how many target you destroyed
player kills count has 1.5x more than bots
''exemple''
Ivan fuckliovitch
-Yak-3 pilot
5 kills player /3 plane-bot so 5x1.5= 7.5= (7+3) kills and 1 un-confirmed
23 ground target and 2 ships
lasted 3 battles = 3 months
consider it as a '' new game mode ''
the last part, i do that with the sarc-c and 6punder... lol ive capped a few like this just smoke every where lol, but he is my fave.. apcr can be good but not great.

I’ve one shot panthers with center of mass shots with M26 Pershing 90 mm APCR to the upper plate so it seems it’s at least somewhat viable now,
Recently unlocked the m48 so im stuck with apcr for a few days
Take a shot every time phly says OHH
Only the king Goober would try to smoke himself for an entire match 😆😆😂🤣🤣
I remember spading the glorious pt-76 was a complete nightmare. Since then I can´t trust APCR
