This is a real lesson, thx a lot. I very appreciate your "loud thinking", it is very useful to know, why you are decide to do this and that... much better than tons of MasterAce vids here on yt. plz keep going....
the REAL cromy did a great job. I am going up the UK medium line now. I have my tank maxed out, but my crew is just 100 pct. Learning the feel of the gun. every time you get a new guy it works differently. Good guide and a bit of fun too.
This review is being redone right now. A better, and hopefully much less annoying review video will be out next Friday. Either way, thanks for all your support guys, I never would have imagined this video would become this popular! New stuff is on the way, as soon as I stop being lazy! -S
STRAIKER Dude, I'm ok with your HUD overall, it's a bit too much for my taste but hey, everyone has his opinion. The part I really don't think should be allowed is that reload timer for the enemy tanks in the bottom left. That is by all means cheating and meets all criteria that Wargaming have put out. The reload times are something that you should learn, instead of just being spoon-fed the info, thus giving you a massive advantage over anyone not using that HUD.
+Vulgar_Display_Of_Power Thank you, if you like this one, I'd recommend you check out my t29 review, and some of my newer stuff. In my opinion this is probably one of the least efficient reviews in terms of how I used the time in it, so if you like this, I think I really like my newer ones a bunch more. Cya around! -STRAIKER
I've been checking out some of your vids, they are all simply yet well explained. Do you mind if i put a link to your channel in my WOT clans forum so some of the others can come and learn how not to noob ? I dont have good stats in game as i never took it seriously and was usually drinking and tanking which is never a good combo and i didnt even know about youtube vids for the game for the first 7k games or so lol, i had a steep learning curve from then though and am getting better. :P. I have the same name in WOT on EU servers , title of the best PanterA album made. Keep up the good work man and see you on the battlefield
Am I the only one that ever needed to fight anything that's Tier 8? Like...that IS-6? In your average game, you don't need that much gold, but if you want to carry a game like that, it is absolutely necessary. Due to how this game is balanced, I run a lot of gold rounds in most of my tanks, because often that is the difference between winning a game, and losing. Or having a good game and an OK game. I subscribe to the philosophy that one should use gold when they cannot afford to bounce. I can penetrate almost any tank from the front with an equal tier gun without gold. However, for those tanks for that I can only penetrate about 60% of the time, I will load gold to ensure that a bounce on that tank is not the difference between me losing that fight, and me winning it. It's just how I see gold rounds. They aren't technically necessary, but they do they make the game a lot more consistent when RNG decides that you are on its bad side. Either way, to each their own. :) -S
I feel like you run a few more Prem shells than necessary. I run 14 in my Crom B and barely ever use all of them. And it's not as if it's stopping me from winning games- I'm running at 64-65% WR after 400 games (my overall WR is 58 (and I don't platoon)). So performing well can be achieved without such a liberal use of premium shells. I understand your point of view, and really the use of premium shells comes down to the discretion of the user- however, with many good streamers/youtubers showing their loadout, some players start to believe that using premium shells makes you a good player (not taking away from your skill as it takes skill to know when to use different types of shells in different situations- this is just an observation of the effect of carrying so many). Your philosophy is sound, but in my opinion, doesn't require so many premium shells for carrying games (especially with a high rof/dpm tank.
The crommie, when played right I agree. But I swear it’s a bit of a scitzo. I performed like a real killer in it but I can count on one hand how many times that happened. In tier 6 clam wars it performs well but when playing plain vanilla battles in the random contests not so much.
Lol @16:50 "still a damn dgood dame." I do that so often... I think that's why I picked it out without trying. good on you for these vids tho. ill be sure to watch more. philspamoni NA
Cromwell is very bad for grinding WN8, the gun handling is very bad, must be very very lucky if your shots goes where you have aimed like 3 seconds and Cromwell has so bad camo, people can spot you from like 200 metres when you're not moving in a bush. Also Cromwell is so big tank that you can't escape because people can shoot you lucky RNG shots.
What am i doing wrong? Whenever i play the cromwell im completely useless. I cant penetrate anything, nit even weak spots. I have zero armor and cant trade. Its precesion ia horrible
+Jayson Morgan I am not familiar with the Xbox version differences, but after a quick Google search it seems like the Crom/Crom B and Knight are very similar, but the Snakebite is more mobile with a much worse gun.
Shane Villis First, I run Brothers in Arms. Second, a combo of sixth sense, snapshot, smooth ride, situational awareness, and camo on the loaders. For the third set, I'd recommend finishing up the camo, and put Recon on the commander, plus the critical hit skill plus safe storage on the loaders. After that, as long as you then put camo on the commander and clutch braking on the driver, you can do whatever you want with the other skills at that point.
thanks mate,much appreciated.i went through the cromwell onto the Cent 7/1 and sold the cromwell.then joined a clan not long ago that uses the crommie for CW and Skirms.So had to buy it back and now have to work on getting skills/perks on it.Being a shitty player after 23k battles,makes it difficult to play it well
+Clarence Pantaleon You can see them pretty clearly in my garage, but in no particular order, Brothers in Arms, Sixth Sense, smooth ride, snapshot, Recon, situational awareness, Deadeye, camo, safe storage, clutch braking, and repairs after all of that.
Go for this: Commander: Sixth Sense---then BIA, then Recon, then Camo, Gunner: Snap Shot---then BIA, then Camo, then Deadeye Driver: Smooth Ride---then BIA, then Camo, then Clutch Braking Radio Operator: Situation Awareness---then BIA, then Camo, then repairs, Loader: Safe Stowage---then BIA, then Camo, then repairs,
Dude you have 1340 displaying on your xvm lol like that is not unicum by a long shot ur wn8 is avg at best just because you have one decent game dosent mean your unicum like who tf would take binos over coated optics and thats if you take optics at all... Moral is get good before you try to teach other ppl bs with your clickbait titles
Aimbot looks like the center crosshair or "aiming reticle" jumping to targets. This isn't that. in 9.15 there was a replay bug where if you used server side crosshair, it would jump around to crap in replays. Not an aimbot.
Cromwell is hands down the best medium tank by tier. Maybe not the best gun handeling but Its just better in everything else.
This is a real lesson, thx a lot. I very appreciate your "loud thinking", it is very useful to know, why you are decide to do this and that... much better than tons of MasterAce vids here on yt. plz keep going....
Thank you! I'm very happy you appreciated it! I try to do that with all of the replays I commentate on!

I love this tank, and drive it like I stole it :)
Good tank, crap user as in myself, lol

MartoradGaming This review is 6 months old. I run vanilla now. There's a similar comment thread down below.
Good video, informative with good clear commentary and some very nice gameplay used to show what the tanks can do. Cheers. Subscribed.

Link me where ever you want good sir, and I thank you for the compliment. That's also some nice history behind that name.
Regardless of CW loadout, Prem shells aren't as necessary as people think on the crommies
Am I the only one that ever needed to fight anything that's Tier 8? Like...that IS-6?

Gotta say this video was amazing👌🏽
Lol @16:50 "still a damn dgood dame." I do that so often... I think that's why I picked it out without trying. good on you for these vids tho. ill be sure to watch more. philspamoni NA
Yeah, it was....special
Cromwell is very bad for grinding WN8, the gun handling is very bad, must be very very lucky if your shots goes where you have aimed like 3 seconds and Cromwell has so bad camo, people can spot you from like 200 metres when you're not moving in a bush. Also Cromwell is so big tank that you can't escape because people can shoot you lucky RNG shots.
The Cromwell B isn't "faster" it just has better acceleration.
What am i doing wrong? Whenever i play the cromwell im completely useless. I cant penetrate anything, nit even weak spots. I have zero armor and cant trade. Its precesion ia horrible
Not usable anymore....gets shreded by armored cars with HE and steath TD's...at least the crew is usable with BIA as 0 skill
The Cromwell B is WOT Blitz has 13 degrees of gun depression. Sucks it only has 8 degrees in WOT.
I was playing in RU1 and I did 5.5k dmg but somehow we still lost the game... nobody in my team didn't do more than 1k dmg.
Great help cheers, now subscribed.
what is the mod?
Really great video!
What's the difference between the Knight, snakebite, Cromwell Berlin and a fully upgraded Cromwell?
+Jayson Morgan I am not familiar with the Xbox version differences, but after a quick Google search it seems like the Crom/Crom B and Knight are very similar, but the Snakebite is more mobile with a much worse gun.
what skills/perks do you run on the cromwell mate?? i've got 6th sence and repairs on crew@95% atm
Shane Villis First, I run Brothers in Arms. Second, a combo of sixth sense, snapshot, smooth ride, situational awareness, and camo on the loaders. For the third set, I'd recommend finishing up the camo, and put Recon on the commander, plus the critical hit skill plus safe storage on the loaders. After that, as long as you then put camo on the commander and clutch braking on the driver, you can do whatever you want with the other skills at that point.
That feeling when you reply on an ALT account.....
thanks mate,much appreciated.i went through the cromwell onto the Cent 7/1 and sold the cromwell.then joined a clan not long ago that uses the crommie for CW and Skirms.So had to buy it back and now have to work on getting skills/perks on it.Being a shitty player after 23k battles,makes it difficult to play it well
I get ya! Well I wish you luck, and I plan to do more vids soon, I hope they help you!
thx mate....i've actually started to use some ideas from you,so will see how i go lol
Well played, not the best commentary but a good game.
11:15 is that mod legal showing fv304 reload time?
Completely.
its no longer legal now
THEWACTHER OF WAR True enough. There are officially mod standards now that determine that using reload mods are finally illegal.
^
What equipment are you running?
Good video.
What are the Crew skills for the Cromwell? Reply pls. Thank you.
+Clarence Pantaleon You can see them pretty clearly in my garage, but in no particular order, Brothers in Arms, Sixth Sense, smooth ride, snapshot, Recon, situational awareness, Deadeye, camo, safe storage, clutch braking, and repairs after all of that.
Can you order them pls? I have a bad crew skills. Pls! Thank you. btw. Luv ur vids
Straiker? Pls? Huhuhuhu
Go for this:
Commander: Sixth Sense---then BIA, then Recon, then Camo,
Gunner: Snap Shot---then BIA, then Camo, then Deadeye
Driver: Smooth Ride---then BIA, then Camo, then Clutch Braking
Radio Operator: Situation Awareness---then BIA, then Camo, then repairs,
Loader: Safe Stowage---then BIA, then Camo, then repairs,
Thank you so much!!!! It helps me alot
I am trying to get my tird mark on cromwell but its hard
The Cromwell is the best tank, to colonize the shit out of the other nations!
Long live the Queen!
But not Nigel Farage, UKIP, the DUP, or the EDL
lots info there thks
+James Wighton I'll have a t29 review out tommorow, and it should be much better than this crom review, which I will be redoing soon.
the one tank I fear in my kv-2 when their in swarms
+herp a derp herp a derp Like fucking bees.
i soloed a kv2 in my t67 face to face a few games ago lol, not saying it was easy but he only got one shot off that luckily missed
Just curious - why is the reticle so 'spastic'. Is that a mod?
+Carlos Rodriguez No, it's just a replay bug from 9.15 for people who had the server reticle enabled.
Nerf? When? XD
Its been nerfed. Not very good anymore
Nice Info there, just wish I could understand more. Horrible mumbling.
"No harm no foul" ... "but I'm definitely gunning for him now" ... so there is foul. Do you always say the first thing that pops into your head?
Obvious troll is obvious.
NICE aim-bot mode
pro
+hell cat Casual
Another video of some one using cheat mods ..... I never understand why WG doesn't stop this crap.
Other than the cheats, well played.
Dude you have 1340 displaying on your xvm lol like that is not unicum by a long shot ur wn8 is avg at best just because you have one decent game dosent mean your unicum like who tf would take binos over coated optics and thats if you take optics at all... Moral is get good before you try to teach other ppl bs with your clickbait titles
I know of at least one 3700+ wn8 player that uses binocs on it... but what would they know right?
looks like aimbot 2 me......
Aimbot looks like the center crosshair or "aiming reticle" jumping to targets. This isn't that. in 9.15 there was a replay bug where if you used server side crosshair, it would jump around to crap in replays. Not an aimbot.
well good :)
:P
11:25 looked kinda dodgy to me , it was already locked on the coupola before you aimed there
22:26
lol
This is a good video. This time note is just a memo, to see what other tanks, besides Cromwell are well rounded
u sound like ur 18
Don't tell anyone, but I'm actually 4!
War thunder is better
