Love the chair story. Hilarious. I have to remember that line: First come first serve. That's right, you didn't come, so you didn't get served. So many people out there will say that they actually want to buy an item, and keep promising to drop buy with the money, but never show up. Screwing your chances of selling it to someone else who is really interested. Odd that she called just after your chair was sold too. I bet if she didn't see that the chair was sold, she never would have contacted you again.
in the beginning the O-I was a great tank.. it was very fast and moved like a medium..and then they F it up @ Claus..tell the story of tony 2 tone's girlfriend..barbara the bike..you promissed..keep it up man..greets from EU server
Couldn't wrap my head around extra controls in strategy game mode. Commented when you previewed the new mode, 'just give us the new maps.' The work is done, put them in the game.
Good video Claus! Really enjoying this line (just unlocked the Tier X) but after a few games in the Tier 7 I used all my Free XP and Blueprints to skip it! The Tier 8 is a beast for high DPM, low alpha ridgeline gameplay, and EVERYONE underestimates your turret armour! Tier 9 is a little trickier because of the TWO giant tumors, which you can't hide.
Yah, WG seems to not translate what the English speaking world is saying, very well. We play a game where the controlling company has no intention of learning English... so they will always be asking "what did they say?", and the answer will Always be, whatever an Ass-Kisser responds with... which won't be anything bad... in other words, the brown nosers will always say... "WG, everything is ok". When CLEARLY its not.
Your chair story reminded me of the phone calls I used to take when I was a field electrician. “Why can’t you show up now?” Well, I’m already scheduled elsewhere. “But this is an emergency!” Okay, if it is an emergency I can be there in a few hours but there will be an additional charge. “That’s not fair!” But I already have a job scheduled. Is it fair to the people that scheduled ahead of time? “But I can’t wait!” Well I can be there after my morning job is completed. “What time?!?” Between 2-3 o’clock depending. “Well I have plans this afternoon can you come earlier??”…..
Yes!! New maps!!! Like you, I cannot understand why WG refuses to play to one of their major strengths. And on this M tank, I just play to teamwork, top tier or bottom tier. If I can break tracks to keep a higher tier vulnerable for my team, than that's my role until We've knocked that one out. If the next situation requires getting behind a set of enemy tanks to unseat their defense of a map feature, then That's the thing to do.
Great video! The problem with WGs desicions in not unique and it happens to most large companies. The problem is that the people who actually make the desicions are so far removed from the daily user base that they dont realize how bad the desicions are. To make matters worse a lot of the top people in companies are not willing to listen to the guys lower in the chain because they think they know better, or they are focused on deadlines instead of getting a good product out. I see it every day, is not just WG.
Art of Strategy is so far off what the player base has asked for, if they really wanted to improve the game, how about a questionaire for players where they can list 1 thing that could be improved.... (I am sure maps would be #1 , lucky guess) and 1 thing that you enjoy about the game. Then after the data is collected and analyzed... actually use it... Just an idea
Maps? Tied for 1st I'm sure would be reducing/eliminating RNG, and MM (having no more than two tiers of tanks in any battle, having no more than 2 SPGs and wheelies in any battle, and if there are any wheelies in battle that there are the same number of wheelies on each team - preferrably no more than 1 per team)
What I want in game - 1) new maps 2) bring back old HE mechanics 3) bring back old hills and bushes that were removed when you made current maps HD from SD
I agree with you Claus , you are one hundred and 55.9 % right . no one else believes me when I say it or say that you are right . BUT YOU ARE FUCKING RIGHT!!!!
In this case I agree you were wrong. Claus the muppet. You clearly told her she can pick it up at any time (at least that's what you say in the video) - that kind of sounds like a "contract". She might have made arrangements to pick it up next day (if she does not drive herself) and you tell her it's already sold.
I heard an interesting business term. The "Hippo" (Highest Income Proposal). Because the highest earner in the room came up with the idea does not mean its a good idea. Hippos can sink a company. Very common in authoritarian regimes, Russia!!!
Oh that new tank smell! I just unlocked the last upgrades on the Standard B and my gosh that thing rips! I have been top 3 on the team in every match so far its so goooood 😍
Went down this line until tier 9 and didn't really like it that much. I play it now and then, but got some serious drawbacks. And yes, maps is the one complaint I have most about this game. Why aren't there a 1000 maps by now after all this time? Heck, just bring back all the ones they got rid of. Some are not balanced, so what? Most maps are biased toward one side, it evens out overall. I just want more variety.
I came here because I wanted a reply, but now you've given the replies to somebody else, so now I'll have to go to some other channel to find a reply. GJ Claus!
Again an wonderful, funny video, thanks Claus! Get well soon... Some new maps were great. I have not tried the strategy bullshit Mode, and will not do it. I want random battles in my not much available time for playing. Cheers from Munich.
I don't know what did You did with You voice, but wow is awesome ! Please keep it is sound unbelievably better than usual ! For me it's change for better. Good job mate :)
So true,real life is comedy. As for the M-ll-Y im still undecided.I had a t-29 like 4yrs ago and then got discouraged with it for being slow but alots changed in game since so you may be right claus
I have no interest in Art of Stradegy. It reminds me too much of Panzer General, which is probably much more fun, even though it's around 30 years old now.
Well played Claus, hope you feel better soon. I once had a strange occurrence many years ago. Working in Salisbury (UK) I was walking to my car when a woman came up to me and asked "Do you mind if I ask you a personal question" fire away I said. She goes on to ask "If you had sex with a 17yr old, would you go back to your wife?". Thinking on my feet I said it depends how good the sex was!! To which she then said "I thought so" and promptly started giving this chap who was with her a very public lambasting. My point is, the fairer sex can at times be quite bizarre in their thought process.
I also liked new maps, and I write in a review that it's a great idea and what do I get?? 15 old maps that are there for 10 years, and some maps don't even circulate thru matchmaking. Thank you WG for nothing!
If I wanted to play a strategy game, I would play one. If I want to blow up tanks I play tanks. Can't believe they actually thought people would be interested.
I would like to see the new maps, I could not play them as I did not have any tanks at the tier needed. Another game mode that they had one year that I enjoyed, was the one that they had during the world cup that was like Rocket League, soccer with tanks.
Good morning Claus. FYI, your daily video has been at the top of my feed every day for years when I log into RUclips in the morning. Now suddenly in the last week or two, I have to go to your channel and hit the videos tab to find it. I don't know why. Maybe because I didn't watch your Elden Ring video that one day, not sure, but I thought you'd like to know. There's pollen in the air, it's probably allergens.
Just don't grind this line, unless you like low alpha heavy, so you can't trade but just support. Armor does not work. Want working armor get a good tank that can be hull down without a dinosaur weak spot. Or a good side scraper.
Would love Dragons Ridge & Port maps to be Hi-Deffed and brought back. As for AoS, no thanks. I did play one of their first games many years ago (Pre WoT) called Order of War (RTS style) that was pretty entertaining.
Hi Claus I was playing last night I played 21 games my average time in game was about 3 minutes, I started out at tier 3 and got too tier 8 were I jumped into my SU 130 PM I made it to the end of 4 games and made credits. I stopped playing at that point,the gun on the SU130 is very good, when do you think it will be turned into garbage.
Well, Wargaming is not quite in the Disney class of corporate eff-ups but it ain't that far either. Should have called "Art of..." "Command and Conquer" mode.
As you just had covid how are you feeling during recovery, brain fog, aches and pains, taste come back or did you not lose it, sound a bit stuffed with cold or flu or is that leftover covid?
Im 100% with you. Some times i think the tasting of the "new maps" is just another game mode. They never wanted to being the maps up. Ive never played art of strategy, cause it looks like sht.
Love the chair story. Hilarious. I have to remember that line: First come first serve. That's right, you didn't come, so you didn't get served.

I call O-Is (and the other Japanese superheavies) BLTs. Big Lumbering Targets. Especially when I play them.
in the beginning the O-I was a great tank.. it was very fast and moved like a medium..and then they F it up @ Claus..tell the story of tony 2 tone's girlfriend..barbara the bike..you promissed..keep it up man..greets from EU server

I will pray for your speedy recovery, Claus Kellerman. Keep up the good work 😁
Yes I was wondering the same thing about those maps. Long overdue for some new ones.
Yah, WG seems to not translate what the English speaking world is saying, very well. We play a game where the controlling company has no intention of learning English... so they will always be asking "what did they say?", and the answer will Always be, whatever an Ass-Kisser responds with... which won't be anything bad... in other words, the brown nosers will always say...

Get well claus.
The chair sale story is hilarious lol.
Thanks for the upload!
I am soooo relieved that you've recovered from the 'Vid' Claus! Now you should be immune from it!!! :P Take care and have a cookie!
Art of Strategy is so far off what the player base has asked for, if they really wanted to improve the game, how about a questionaire for players where they can list 1 thing that could be improved....

Me thinks Russian marketing studies are similar to the mystery math used to calculate credits.
@@davidlabedz2046 I think they use something called, variable math.
@@davidlabedz2046 they have Common Core math
Well see, that makes too much sense.
I don’t care what tanks you play or even the game. I keep coming for the life stories 😂. Thank you Claus 😎
Some people never learn how anything works
I'm 43 years old wot muppet and I'm here because the histories, they better than the game hahaha. I'm very glad that you are getting well. Thanks man.
Where's my chair??! 😡
You're right it is comedy gold. 90 % why I'm subscribed to your channel. 😀 👍
What I want in game - 1) new maps 2) bring back old HE mechanics 3) bring back old hills and bushes that were removed when you made current maps HD from SD
BIRDS CANT BUY CHAIRS CLAUS
I played zero games in this mode (50k+ in WoT). The Art of Strategy is perfect for toxic players....when they lose, they can rage at themselves.
I agree with you Claus , you are one hundred and 55.9 % right . no one else believes me when I say it or say that you are right . BUT YOU ARE FUCKING RIGHT!!!!
Is the chair still available ?
These random ranty videos are far superior to any gameplay! Keep it up Claus!
Yup better now that I'm watching your video get better soon
Welcome to Claus Consulting where we're not afraid to say: "STOP! That's a stupid idea." LOL
The introduction of the stupid clown cars was war gamings coca cola moment for sure.
Loved the bird story.
New Tim Horton's recently opened here in Paisley, Scotland. I've never been in a Tim Hortons in my life. True story.
talking about map rotation, I usually only see about five during around 3-4 hours of playing. It would be nice to see more variety.
In this case I agree you were wrong. Claus the muppet. You clearly told her she can pick it up at any time (at least that's what you say in the video) - that kind of sounds like a "contract". She might have made arrangements to pick it up next day (if she does not drive herself) and you tell her it's already sold.
Well done, lad. GG's - hope you get over whatever is wrong with your health, soon.
You tell them Claus ... you tell WG how they suck! Keep it up buddy :)
I heard an interesting business term. The "Hippo" (Highest Income Proposal). Because the highest earner in the room came up with the idea does not mean its a good idea. Hippos can sink a company. Very common in authoritarian regimes, Russia!!!
Oh that new tank smell! I just unlocked the last upgrades on the Standard B and my gosh that thing rips! I have been top 3 on the team in every match so far its so goooood 😍
Good to see your feeling better clause

YES!! New maps we need new maps. We spend our hard earned money on this game we deserve new maps. No wait we demand new maps war gaming. 😂
lots of luck we your demands , do you honestly think WG gives a damn what you want or think? Thats why no one gives a damn about this game anymore
with
It's about the story, Claus. That's what history will remember.
Again an wonderful, funny video, thanks Claus! Get well soon...
Some new maps were great. I have not tried the strategy bullshit Mode, and will not do it. I want random battles in my not much available time for playing.
Cheers from Munich.
I don't know what did You did with You voice, but wow is awesome ! Please keep it is sound unbelievably better than usual ! For me it's change for better. Good job mate :)
Gotta love Story Time With Claus.
And clouds your spot on about the maps, it drives me damn crazy. It’s almost as bad as matchmaking
So true,real life is comedy. As for the M-ll-Y im still undecided.I had a t-29 like 4yrs ago and then got discouraged with it for being slow but alots changed in game since so you may be right claus
I have no interest in Art of Stradegy. It reminds me too much of Panzer General, which is probably much more fun, even though it's around 30 years old now.
You're right Claus, but yet did very well !!
Thanks for the great content...
Well played Claus, hope you feel better soon. I once had a strange occurrence many years ago. Working in Salisbury (UK) I was walking to my car when a woman came up to me and asked "Do you mind if I ask you a personal question" fire away I said.

To which she then said "I thought so" and promptly started giving this chap who was with her a very public lambasting. My point is, the fairer sex can at times be quite bizarre in their thought process.
Wargamming most likely employs a huge committee of diverse people that must all equally have the same amount of input on every decision.
I loved the T29 ! Great tank !
New maps and improved player skill balancing between teams!!
I also liked new maps, and I write in a review that it's a great idea and what do I get?? 15 old maps that are there for 10 years, and some maps don't even circulate thru matchmaking. Thank you WG for nothing!
If I wanted to play a strategy game, I would play one. If I want to blow up tanks I play tanks. Can't believe they actually thought people would be interested.
Feel better soon Claus
CLAUS- you need IVM, NAC, Quercitin, Zinc, Vitamin C and D. If you take a lot of D, find some with K2 in it.
"it's not a tumor" 🤣🤣
Get better soon and good video and stories. :)
I'm interested in the chair. Is it still available? 🤣
Claus you have now entered the new world of retail.
The OI was looking for the chair you promised her.
Just the bad dispersion is enough to bin this tank.
Spot on Clausman, spot on.
Been playing 8 years and Totally agree
When can i come and pick up my chair?
100% Agree they need to just put the new maps in the game. More interested in that than new modes or tanks.
Do you play them stock and grind the upgrades? or do you free xp it to max?
I would like to see the new maps, I could not play them as I did not have any tanks at the tier needed. Another game mode that they had one year that I enjoyed, was the one that they had during the world cup that was like Rocket League, soccer with tanks.
get well my friend
the gun on the MIIY is one of the most inaccurate guns I've played in the US line of tanks.....freakin awful
great video
Good morning Claus. FYI, your daily video has been at the top of my feed every day for years when I log into RUclips in the morning. Now suddenly in the last week or two, I have to go to your channel and hit the videos tab to find it. I don't know why. Maybe because I didn't watch your Elden Ring video that one day, not sure, but I thought you'd like to know. There's pollen in the air, it's probably allergens.
"Do you have to be a rocket surgeon?", Claus, 29.4.2022
you sound sick bro...hope u feel better soon!!!
Haven’t started this line yet. Probably going to start it when I get back home
good luck with that
Claus hoarse voice is actually very cool!
Just don't grind this line, unless you like low alpha heavy, so you can't trade but just support. Armor does not work. Want working armor get a good tank that can be hull down without a dinosaur weak spot. Or a good side scraper.
Would love Dragons Ridge & Port maps to be Hi-Deffed and brought back. As for AoS, no thanks. I did play one of their first games many years ago (Pre WoT) called Order of War (RTS style) that was pretty entertaining.
hope you feel better buddy
if anything for maps, NO MINES past tier 7
🛑🛑 I hope you feel better buddy 🤒 👍
I was a bit worried about you there.
Rest up, and don’t over do it. 💯👍
Great games with great stories👍👍
Hi Claus I was playing last night I played 21 games my average time in game was about 3 minutes, I started out at tier 3 and got too tier 8 were I jumped into my SU 130 PM I made it to the end of 4 games and made credits. I stopped playing at that point,the gun on the SU130 is very good, when do you think it will be turned into garbage.
If they could why not WG work with google maps i mean they have pics from all over the world to get ideas from idk but maybe be worked out
Well, Wargaming is not quite in the Disney class of corporate eff-ups but it ain't that far either. Should have called "Art of..." "Command and Conquer" mode.
Sounds like a good idea
I think they should've named it "Fart of Stupidity"
I agree with ALL your rant - best wishes.🤑
...and yes...Bring on the new Maps, Wargaming!!!
Good video. Feel better soon.
I just finally got m2y fully upgraded to play with and I haven’t got the honeymoon yet...
"It's not Rocketsurgery.....!" haahahhahahahaah
As you just had covid how are you feeling during recovery, brain fog, aches and pains, taste come back or did you not lose it, sound a bit stuffed with cold or flu or is that leftover covid?
Lol that kijiji lady doesn’t know how the buy and sell works lmao 😂
Ya that Bump on top dose not help that's for share . SKK .
Good storytelling
I've got the tier 7 and I agree it's almost totally inferior to the T29. Still, it's an interesting looking tank...
I play the tier 7 with the stock turret becouse the big weakspot on top of the turret disappears. 🚙🚗🙂
tier 8 and tier 10 are lovely
Hey Claus - feel better guy. New Maps? Ja !! New game mode with bots? Nej !! Re: chair - so, Canada has "Karens" too.
Im 100% with you. Some times i think the tasting of the "new maps" is just another game mode. They never wanted to being the maps up. Ive never played art of strategy, cause it looks like sht.
