There isn't actually any proof to this but whenever I play the Italian m26a1at 6.3 it slaps. I always bring the m332 da 90/50 apcr and I constantly hit just the best one shot on kills. Just crew nock outs ammo racks whatever. It's obvious that I just have conformation bias, but I'd like to see your luck with the round. I must express it is only with this vehicle I feel this luck.
@ 2:31 I've often said that the spawn area shouldn't be one or two small, restricted areas, but instead allocate at least 2/3 to 3/4 of the map edge (even "bend" this around a map corner if needed). Let the players decide where in that space they want to spawn. That would help to avoid the spawn campers (both close in and across the map snipers), it's also give ground vehicles a chance to spread out and not be such an easy target for the planes that bomb the spawn. It wouldn't penalise the players that like to employ those tactics, no need for silly tank marking on the map, that has dubious effect. It won't fix the map designs that seem to want to channel you into 1 to 3 fire lanes that head to the caps, but it's be a definite improvement.
I know as i play 3 or 4 games and get no kills but get killed often ...unless somebody just drives in front of me. 2000 hours on the game and i still suck at it. I should have spend that time picking my nose ..at least i would have gotten something out of it ..a booger
Many reasons to it since he is on PC he is at a huge advantage plus he is technically smurfing as he is highest level playing low br as well as PC specs making him able to react faster and then also connection to the game
@@Sten05how is pc better for tanks ? I play on console. I tried pc but I couldn’t even control anything. I can see for planes because joystick is the way to go which is why I don’t bother playing planes
i recommend taking 18 shells, it boosts surivability A LOT and its usually enough, otherwise you can refill pretty fast at a cap, at that point you usually have to wait to refill ready-rack anyway
I love how you and spookston have a decent amount of videos covering the same vehicles. After I watch one, I frequently go to see if the other has made a video on whatever vehicle you covered. Thanks for all the consistent, awesome content.
Ah the Somua! The best memory I have of it is that I was in your last video about the Somua from 2 years ago and you chuckled at my Firework placement at the start of the first match. I recently got it in a sale, its fantastic.
It was worth the watch just to hear you say Somua with your funny french accent over and over...couldn't help but crack a smile and laugh 🙂😀 thanks @OddBawz
You have absolutely nailed it. 80% of the time people crying in chat about having shit team/teammates, I check their player card and yeah they are usually worse than me. I will happily admit my skills in this game equate to an absolute dumpster fire.
Yep. I have also seen this, or if you check their player card they sometimes tend to be inexperienced and newer. On the flip side, everyone should try calming down and instead DMing someone flame when they dominate the game, compliment them on their skill and maybe you’ll make a new friend.
I always enjoy seeing your vids because you exhibit the attitude and sportsmanship that I wish all players did. BZ! BTW, you have more than enough "bullets", what you run short of are "shells".
It's also pretty quick for a HEAVY tank. OH ya that be sick if they let you pick where in the spawn you would spawn and that would be like how AirRB use to be where you could pick what airfield you wanted to take off from, but they took that away from us all.
So glad you posted. I need some motivation. I'm trying to grind out the History Pages "Lib of Paris" with French vehicles, and... its rough with all the freakin' Summer Event cheaters and 1 and outers...
Love your videos, will never be able to play most of the tanks you play cause I can't wrap my head around buying a single tank for 30 plus dollars, sometimes hundreds.
As a player that has nearly 1,000 games logged in this tank... it's not the monster it use to be. 1) You have alot of shells in the mag, but it takes forever to reload the mag if you're not on a cap. 2) Its reverse speed is painfully slow. And 3) A lot of players are ware of the trash neck armor. A good tank that's frankly not as good as its tech tree counterparts.
I mean... Anything you're playing against... for the most part... can kill a king tiger lol. Especially in an up tier. I play my slant 16 a lot and never feel like I am safe from anything lol. I love your vids. M8... You're a gem for sure.
I like how spookston put his mighty 10 kills in his thumbnail lol. Id imagine that is a big achievement for someone like him. 10 kills in a busted premium for a busted nation..... Welp time to watch odd get like 25 in a single game or something :)
Everytime I see a video about the Somua I get intense ptsd flashbacks to the times I played it, went around a corner only to seee an IS-3 staring at me
I've always thought and still think people are sleeping on the Surbaisse. It's only 6s RoF but has 19rds in the first order and a gun that will routinely 1 shot anything you look at, at the same BR. It's mobile enough for a heavy tank and can hull down as much as you can realistically ask for. My only issue with it is the turret "elevator" gets damaged alot often makes the gun droop so you can't even work around it and its repair time rivals breach repairs.
I feel like you're right, that toxic people generally suck to put it bluntly. I don't do so well in tanks generally, but i've had many a hate message from people i have shot down in air rb😂
I’ve now told two players to calm down and take a nap after receiving hate messages post game in War Thunder. It’s usually rare, but I haven’t experienced that since CodMWII in 2009 lol
I've noticed that the team's have much more diverse lately. maybe it's just in flux of players ? but it's nice. more games have been really close. i personally would like to see you pull out DORA fw190-13.
For anyone getting this tank make sure to pair it with the f4u7 and the might mousse rockets and if you use the custom oridance feature you can bring 3 1000 lb bombs along with the rockets. I have completely wiped entire teams by doing this. I also like to point out that the Somua can get uptiered and fight enemy t55a's which have apfsds, laser rangefinder, and is fully stabilized. The only thing you have against it is a faster reload, but if they are smart, they will just kill your turret crew and just widdle you down as you are unable to do anything.
Oddbawz, you should try the T-10M, the highest heavy tank in the Russian tech tree. A lumbering oaf equipped with totally obsolete rolled homogeneous armor, at 8.3.
Implants are also a big concern as you have to gamble to maybe get what you want, and that's a big maybe. Not to mention the cost to move them around in your own inventory, that sucks big time!

Somua=croissant new meme audio unlocked. Also, why must I be a skill issue player.
Loved the intro
As an Arma player, i relate to the struggle of holding alt to turn the camera in War Thunder and then holding C to turn the camera in Arma
Nice to see you play the Somua! If you like tanks with high pen and fast reloads, however, you should definitely check out the Jpz 4-5.

"We are just gonna be shooting children.....the American viewers can calm down" - Oddbawz 2023 💀💀💀
I always love it when Odd calls British tanks by their traditional names.

The somua was absolutely mad a few months ago when the replenishing rate was bugged so it took like 5 seconds to replenish the ammo
“Take their lunch money” 😂
Yet another mythical tank that never so the light of day.
So glad you posted. I need some motivation. I'm trying to grind out the History Pages "Lib of Paris" with French vehicles, and... its rough with all the freakin' Summer Event cheaters and 1 and outers...
All time great intro.
Miss ya odd
Take out the Italian P40 and showcase the APHE and HEAT, they're both very much needed but for very different situations which is interesting.
As a French guy, I should buy the Somooha
Baws when needs a video idea:
Funny dog guy

Somua OP, hands down one of the best tanks in the game
i love that the designers put a little placard all ovee the vehicle like it is a sportscar
because it basically is, its so fast for a Heavy
Every time Odd was low on ammo in the autoloader, I could only think of the "I need more boolets" guy
"The American viewers can calm down." Savage burn mate, savage!
Odd you was right about the open top. M18. I hit theB cap and backed out of there.
I mean...
