I was once forced to watch 9 vs 2 fight, where 9 absolute simpletons went one by one and lost the match. Those 2 enemy tanks stood victorious and unharmed, i wasnt sure if i should laugh or cry. This game is just too ridiculous way too often.
I like the earlier video publishing Claus. Your videos used to come out at 8:00 AM in my central US time zone. Now they come out at 6:00 AM. I like it. It helps me get my day started a little earlier. Thanks.
Yeah, I'm in NC (so Eastern Time Zone) and Claus' videos would drop at 0800 which was good for me as I am retired and it was in line with my meds and breakfast. Then the time change hit and it was wtf!? They started dropping at 0900. Then I mentioned it to Claus, probably with a bunch of other people, so he changed the drop time to get it back in sync. Now it is 0700. Can't catch a break. But regardless of the time slot, unless it affects viewer numbers, at least we get the opportunity to have his videos to view.
Yeah,. ur right about the map,. I've been asking myself about that," Armor not hit",. wtf? you hit the tank,. so what happened in that case? Is it just Russ rng troll?,.you hit the freaking Rubber Duck or Nuts that glued on the Tank or the rear view mirror? It's kind freaking stupid like the other one,." screen not penned" that too is like wtf? Or do you think it's more like,. the DAs couldn't think of anything else to take up more percentage to, not penning and just made up something stupid to make it seem like the non pen percentage isn't as big as it is? That last game was a perfect example of a," all me player".
For new players, if you’re in an strv and getting circled by a light or med, take it out of siege mode. Autolock and you’ll rotate around quickly with the tank
Last Battle: Well "Mr Rocket Scientist", if he sat in that bush, he had been outspotted easily and then he is basically sitting in the open without any cover. Behind the house he might have been lucky, if that light has a greedy brainfart...... small chance but it is there. BTW ist that bush even large enough to hide all visiual points on a that large artillery? I doubt it. Conclusion: If RNG says yes you might win and if it says no, you have most likely lost.
There’s no way the SPG had anything other than an extremely remote chance of winning. Play that scenario 100 times and the SPG would win 5 times max. You’re being too hard on him. The Jagpz lost that game by panic firing like a clown.
Claus, it is obvious that you didnt play Arty for a long time. When you drive with them they are so quick that it is really hard to stop in these small bushes😂
I groan when I get the Oyster bay map. Usually seems like one side or the other rampages through the North corridor. Is't the 2nd map a revamp of what was the 'Swamp' map?
Oyster Bay and Outpost are going on my no play list. Making a huge, visually appealing map is pointless if it's designed so that only 25% of it ever has any tanks battling on it. I been meaning to cancel them purely because I get put on them so often, several times in a row some days, but now I can see why.
I've had my best TD games on this map, but I am a passive aggressive TD player sometimes I snipe where he is now or if I'm in a heavier TD I'll move up with the heavy tanks. It just depends
My internet sucks today. Didn't realize it until I logged in to wot and ran xp and credit boosts and got in battle with 999 ping! I wish we could pause the boosts instead of wasting them.
so many people love to hate arty but in truth, is there much difference between an arty and a camping TD? I've seen games where arty drives round shotgunning which were very entertaining
Yeah that first map is a good example, I eventually worked out best spots for arty is to line up with one of the gun-barrel corridors and farm heavies, in a TD that map is horrible. If nobody advances in the open areas, (which they don't cos it's suicide by TD), it's very boring, if you advance even slightly in a TD your gonna die quick.
Love this map so much it's on my no play maps. Those corridor battles I call ping pong playing. It's generally for lazy heavies who line the simplicity of the exchange.
What you see on screen isnt always that its on the servers! :D Due to the lags even if you don have any the servers tanks are not where you thing they are, its mater of meters and microseconds. :D
Speaking of "which came first the chicken or the egg"........I've solved the mystery. If we are talking about chicken or the egg, well the egg came first because eggs have been around longer than chickens But if we are talking about the chicken or the chicken egg, then the chicken came first, because a chicken egg can only come from chickens. 1000 year old mystery solved.
I think one of the saddest thing in this game is the crap maps. How hard would it be to take the lay out of real tank battle scenes and portray them in the game. Or better yet, even just take real map topography from any real map and lay it down as the field of battle. I so look forward to trying out Steel Aces, that is promoting to use realistic maps with only real tanks that come from history not some napkin drawing.
Hey Claus - I have a hypothesis regarding the way people play this game; no real data but it feels right. (A) 1st assumption: WG prefers to categorize WoT as an arcade game, not a simulation. A lot of us still playing video games grew up in the era of the video arcade playing twitch games like Space Invaders, Frogger, Pac-Man, etc - suspend thinking and allow reflexes to take over. (B) 2nd Assumption - I hate to criticize some of my favorite movies but ... in "Top Gun/Top Gun: Maverick" Pete Mitchell keeps telling his fellow aviators "do, don't think" and "you think up there, you're dead". So it seems to me a lot of folks have been media-trained NOT to think in an arcade-style shooter video game. But as you point out - surprise! WoT IS ENOUGH of a simulation to actually require some real-time thinking during gameplay. So what happens, at least in the "good" games - the twitchers die quickly and the thinkers survive to have a close game at the end.
I have a different theory. There are tons of people with a low. Attention span and the modern Day internet with all those fast media, superficial attitude mupppets on tiktok just make this become the norm. Doesnt mean they are idiots but that they are raised that way and only a few people are menttally strong enough to compensate it. Earlier generations like mine who saw the upcoming of the internet as young adults dont have this problem so much.
The frustrating part is when some of us started in beta, and the game was MORE of a Sim, and we still LIKE that aspect of it, but 90% of your teammates are Overwatch graduates, and you're not going to get the thinking game you might want. I like a good blend, but would prefer a 60/40 or 70/30 in favor of sim, and WoT nowadays tends more toward 70/30 or 80/20 in favor of arcade shooter.
Here is how you know the game and MM is Rigged, IF the game/matches wasn't rigged you shouldn't have to wait in for a match for 2-3 min with 400+ players in queue after all it only takes 30 to make a match, my look at it is that MM take 90% plays with 50% + Win rate in one team and 90% players with win rates under 50% on the other team, that's why so often you end up wit a 3-15 results soo often, and you know your on the losing team then your first 4-6 FULL AIMED shoot bounce or don't penetrate even when shoot point blank with a Jg Panzer E100 on a tier 8 light tank
im watching these epic replays and all i see after an hard fought victory is loss of credits so whats the point of wining if you dont win nothink im confused, i want wen i win to win somethink that make my life easyer and feel good about it like credits, wging is greedy ps its all about the money in games and out games
Hey Claus.....Do you by any chance play chess. You sometimes like near the end of the game need to slow down and wait for your opponent to make a move and hope it's a mistake. I enjoy tank battle where you need to wait and plan your move or hope they make a mistake....Patience is a virtue. You don't need to run around like chicken with your head chopped off all the time. You seem to get bored unless you are running around shooting your gun....Patience. I for one like the suspense of waiting. Just saying. Good videos.
I recently installed xvm, it’s scary the amount of braindead players, Quite often I’m the only “green” player in game, it’s full of tomatoes, very disheartening for society.
Professor, you commented on these players, as if they only play this tank. How short minded, it made you sound. It's not like I haven't played my S1, more than any other tank. Or is it. I have a raider medal, and 9 kamikaze medals. I need you to be smarter, than you sounded in this one. My time is of great import too me. Tighten up sir !
I hope someone here might be able to tell me why I only see the same 6 or 7 maps on repeat. Its been 2 weeks of this and I am getting really tired of this game.
You talk over and over about the formula necessary in order to have an epic game. Muppets on your team that leave the damage for you, and even more clueless muppets on the enemy team that do everything wrong and allow you to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. And you don't even need to play perfectly, as we saw here today.
Ordinary promotion from WOT tips !! (Haha 3-6-8000 Damage) you don't get 1/4th of what you see here in real game!!! These bastards have a modified mod for promotions to see they are still in the top ranks, what he shoots is a hit!! if a tank hits him.. then a rebound... I guarantee that you won't have it that way!! and it will be the opposite on mil. % and besides... don't buy premium or premium tanks!!! it's useless anyway, the server determines the damage,,..determines victory and defeat .. If you upload min Damage to the opponent, the server will automatically flip and give Victory/ if High damage to the opponent - it is automatically Defeat.. You have a tank of 8 levels and you are approximately at the bottom of the team or on the bottom team composition, stacked from level 10 = It's automatically a win because you have no chance to shoot down Level 10 that is: min. damage = victory.!!! If you are on the highest rungs in the lineup, e.g. team level 8 to level 6 , Automatically = high damage to the opponent and you automatically = Defeat!! Server. BLOCKS....visibility, enemy detections, opponent damage, you can just do whatever you want :D !! it's wasted money!! You actually have more losses than wins in the game!! Ask yourself another question.. how many times have you recorded what you see here? (it's easy to play if you're an admin with a good game mode!), and this thieving company gives replays like this every day ... they're just lying to you and fooling you it's a great game, waiting for you to adjust the game mode to the minimum so that you can put real money into it!! Also note that they offer only premium or 10 level tanks, where you have huge losses in the game even during premium, especially if you use gold-i (premium cartridges)!!! , for 1 battle minus up to 8-20,000 cash... if not more... wt.
Dude you need to chill. I bet if you look at these games with fresher eyes, you’d see how these players made more complex and crucial decisions that you missed.
What is worse than dealing with morons ,is coming out of the army and knowing the correct tactics to use in that situation and still losing the battle because WAR SHAMING is such a f-ed up game that it is all by the luck of WG's stupid computer randomized bull shit........can we say -realizm kiddies
Maybe the Jeff was busy eating the third Twinkie in the jumbo pack and forgot he had to move.
I was once forced to watch 9 vs 2 fight, where 9 absolute simpletons went one by one and lost the match. Those 2 enemy tanks stood victorious and unharmed, i wasnt sure if i should laugh or cry. This game is just too ridiculous way too often.
every time I move to an aggressive position I am hung out to dry by my team ..so yes I will camp and let mikey do it
I like the earlier video publishing Claus. Your videos used to come out at 8:00 AM in my central US time zone. Now they come out at 6:00 AM. I like it. It helps me get my day started a little earlier. Thanks.
It's this weird time change thing. Some places change their time and some don't so the video release time changes.
Yeah, I'm in NC (so Eastern Time Zone) and Claus' videos would drop at 0800 which was good for me as I am retired and it was in line with my meds and breakfast. Then the time change hit and it was wtf!? They started dropping at 0900. Then I mentioned it to Claus, probably with a bunch of other people, so he changed the drop time to get it back in sync. Now it is 0700. Can't catch a break. But regardless of the time slot, unless it affects viewer numbers, at least we get the opportunity to have his videos to view.
Would love to see some more Claus gameplay!
Yeah,. ur right about the map,. I've been asking myself about that," Armor not hit",. wtf? you hit the tank,. so what happened in that case? Is it just Russ rng troll?,.you hit the freaking Rubber Duck or Nuts that glued on the Tank or the rear view mirror? It's kind freaking stupid like the other one,." screen not penned" that too is like wtf? Or do you think it's more like,. the DAs couldn't think of anything else to take up more percentage to, not penning and just made up something stupid to make it seem like the non pen percentage isn't as big as it is? That last game was a perfect example of a," all me player".
Adding and subtracting is the math I know. It's a wonder I even graduated from high school.
Ist just totally elective how the stupid program donates damage, has nothing to do with actual hits anymore, only dirty statistics
I've got my campground spot for the season picked out. Now all i need is Claus to cut loose so I can aggrevate the snooty neighbors. 😅
It also seems like the LT wasn't looking at the map.
New tee shirt idea…Not Effing Science!!
I'd buy that shirt 😉
Thanks for the chuckles!
For new players, if you’re in an strv and getting circled by a light or med, take it out of siege mode. Autolock and you’ll rotate around quickly with the tank
Some SPGs don't have any significant concealment so they don't think they can hide.
Last Battle: Well "Mr Rocket Scientist", if he sat in that bush, he had been outspotted easily and then he is basically sitting in the open without any cover. Behind the house he might have been lucky, if that light has a greedy brainfart...... small chance but it is there.
BTW ist that bush even large enough to hide all visiual points on a that large artillery? I doubt it.
Conclusion: If RNG says yes you might win and if it says no, you have most likely lost.
There’s no way the SPG had anything other than an extremely remote chance of winning. Play that scenario 100 times and the SPG would win 5 times max. You’re being too hard on him. The Jagpz lost that game by panic firing like a clown.
Claus, it is obvious that you didnt play Arty for a long time. When you drive with them they are so quick that it is really hard to stop in these small bushes😂
And the bushes are so small that there isnt no cover for big arties anymore. :D
Yeah. Live ist hard for Arty players
Aced Strv 103b on mines 1h ago, 6k dmg. Was very fun, but like you said, this is 1 out of 100.
They were confused, they didn't know what they were doing. It happened so fast.🙃
new monthly feature, "Muppets of 2024, March edition"
Have fun on your summer camping and kayak trip
I liked it when there were places on a map you could go that you weren't supposed to be able to go.
I'm glad they fixed the exploits. Now they need to get rid of the cheaters.
Claus on Fire today?...... Da. 😎
In the first game if you want people in the center on the airfield, put a capture flag there…
That, now THAT is an awesome and logical idea, therefore WoT would never do it.
To get the consistent damage to mark the 103-B it really needs to be played as a medium tank.
I groan when I get the Oyster bay map. Usually seems like one side or the other rampages through the North corridor. Is't the 2nd map a revamp of what was the 'Swamp' map?
I dislike heavy tank gameplay and detest TD gameplay....I've pretty much given up trying to complete the campaigns, I just get really annoyed.
AWESOME CLAUS**💥💥💥🤟
Oyster Bay and Outpost are going on my no play list. Making a huge, visually appealing map is pointless if it's designed so that only 25% of it ever has any tanks battling on it.
I been meaning to cancel them purely because I get put on them so often, several times in a row some days, but now I can see why.
Tell it like it is Claus!
Quite right Claus, flanking would kill enemy and help teammate ! .....sigh.....
I would call this map a commitment map
Bushes block vision Claus.. 😊
I've had my best TD games on this map, but I am a passive aggressive TD player sometimes I snipe where he is now or if I'm in a heavier TD I'll move up with the heavy tanks. It just depends
My internet sucks today. Didn't realize it until I logged in to wot and ran xp and credit boosts and got in battle with 999 ping! I wish we could pause the boosts instead of wasting them.
that strv dude, press w!!! so passive
so many people love to hate arty but in truth, is there much difference between an arty and a camping TD? I've seen games where arty drives round shotgunning which were very entertaining
I can play arty but never had the patience to play a camping TD.
So boring...
Yeah that first map is a good example, I eventually worked out best spots for arty is to line up with one of the gun-barrel corridors and farm heavies, in a TD that map is horrible. If nobody advances in the open areas, (which they don't cos it's suicide by TD), it's very boring, if you advance even slightly in a TD your gonna die quick.
Love this map so much it's on my no play maps. Those corridor battles I call ping pong playing. It's generally for lazy heavies who line the simplicity of the exchange.
Yes I'm gonna add that first map to the no play list.
2:51 if you look closely that was a miss but whatever. If WG says it's a kill then I'm must be wrong.
What you see on screen isnt always that its on the servers! :D Due to the lags even if you don have any the servers tanks are not where you thing they are, its mater of meters and microseconds. :D
Mind yer blood pressure Claus.
If only they had watched the game before playing it.
With they (WG) would double the map sizes…
Rocketry is an engineering discipline, it's not science.
Claus is swearing....tme for a vacation mate lol
the first map is a lot of fun imo.
Tell me you never play TDs without telling me you never play TDs.
lol... actually mediums@@wobblyboost
Stock gun or not, the Object should use HE against the STRV.
Speaking of "which came first the chicken or the egg"........I've solved the mystery.
If we are talking about chicken or the egg, well the egg came first because eggs have been around longer than chickens
But if we are talking about the chicken or the chicken egg, then the chicken came first, because a chicken egg can only come from chickens.
1000 year old mystery solved.
I think of it as the Fortnite map. Yes. A big useless center. Thanks Claus!
God d_mn Claus, you sound like my brother with the back seat driving...
Happy algorithm comment
First game looked very much like an episode of 'Carry the Stupids', even if most of them were on the enemy side.
When playing as an SPG, sometimes being outside of the bushes is better because the bushes are obvious targets for counter-arty fire.
Ya. Because they were scared of counter battery fire from a STRV 103 and LT100. Smooth brain.
I think one of the saddest thing in this game is the crap maps. How hard would it be to take the lay out of real tank battle scenes and portray them in the game. Or better yet, even just take real map topography from any real map and lay it down as the field of battle. I so look forward to trying out Steel Aces, that is promoting to use realistic maps with only real tanks that come from history not some napkin drawing.

Even then it comes down to WOT to determine the outcome. Fully aimed NOPE!

Your hair looks better today.
Hey Claus, are your friends Bob and Pierre going to join you on your camping trip? That be awesome. 😂
Here is how you know the game and MM is Rigged, IF the game/matches wasn't rigged you shouldn't have to wait in for a match for 2-3 min with 400+ players in queue after all it only takes 30 to make a match, my look at it is that MM take 90% plays with 50% + Win rate in one team and 90% players with win rates under 50% on the other team, that's why so often you end up wit a 3-15 results soo often, and you know your on the losing team then your first 4-6 FULL AIMED shoot bounce or don't penetrate even when shoot point blank with a Jg Panzer E100 on a tier 8 light tank
dont quote me on this,but apperently it is that complicated .
Isn't camping what you do, Claus ?
Maybe the Jeff’s don’t like “bush”. I like bush. Never leave the bush!
Great video 😂
Wait? WOT is a team game? I thought it was everyone for themselves and the heck with the team.
is'nt the obj a premium tank?????
bond turbo makes huge difference on strv
im watching these epic replays and all i see after an hard fought victory is loss of credits so whats the point of wining if you dont win nothink im confused, i want wen i win to win somethink that make my life easyer and feel good about it like credits, wging is greedy ps its all about the money in games and out games
Empty the bank to Ace your tank, it is crazy.
obj283 is a premium tank
strv carried the stoopids!
Played 2 rounds on Oyster bay and banned it immediately, awful map imo
AY UP CLAUS
You think its bad for the 103B, try being arty on a map like this.
why callin it the Seige Mode, "Camping' mode more appropriate for any1 sitting in a bush most of game.
Hey Claus.....Do you by any chance play chess. You sometimes like near the end of the game need to slow down and wait for your opponent to make a move and hope it's a mistake.

I recently installed xvm, it’s scary the amount of braindead players, Quite often I’m the only “green” player in game, it’s full of tomatoes, very disheartening for society.
Haven’t played in years. Waited for new maps, and this is it? What utter rubbish. WG is just trolling the players with this.
Agree, this map is sux. Only great wall is worse.
Professor, you commented on these players, as if they only play this tank. How short minded, it made you sound. It's not like I haven't played my S1, more than any other tank. Or is it. I have a raider medal, and 9 kamikaze medals. I need you to be smarter, than you sounded in this one. My time is of great import too me. Tighten up sir !
I don't get why you feature so many EU server games, i'm sure we have plenty of NA camo net warriors to watch lol
for the same reason you do
This map looks nice from overhead. Other than that it sucks.
Someone controlling the game 😢 my tank keep firing while it move I don't even touching keyboard and mouse 😢
I hope someone here might be able to tell me why I only see the same 6 or 7 maps on repeat. Its been 2 weeks of this and I am getting really tired of this game.
Secondies!
Please come back to Twitch
Poop map

Dude you need to chill. I bet if you look at these games with fresher eyes, you’d see how these players made more complex and crucial decisions that you missed.
Crap map gold eater
arty is toxic to the game
First
What is worse than dealing with morons ,is coming out of the army and knowing the correct tactics to use in that situation and still losing the battle because WAR SHAMING is such a f-ed up game that it is all by the luck of WG's stupid computer randomized bull shit........can we say -realizm kiddies
