for me, i think its also the nostalgia of discovering the information Jingles is delivering for the first time. a time before a lot of Salty tears and proverbial water under the bridge so to speak... Jingles is always a channel I will enjoy.
+GRIZZLY_GUY It is just like those Mingles with Jingles episodes, where he apologizes upfront about the video being a short one, when it turns out to be something like 37 minutes :D
The game is but a shadow of what it once was. Utter crap. I'd rather work or listen to my girlfriend tell me how her day was instead of playing WoWS again.
@@Norwegian_Bastard Lots of fond memories as a Supertester.. before we started getting threatened and you know, generally being treated like trash by WG for DDDARRRINNNGGG to try and actually BBBAALLLANNNNNCEEE the game.. like we're supposed to, because.. why have us supertest new ships!? Now.. ST is just there.. and thats about it, they don't listen to anything ST's have to say about jack anymore. *Ahem* Stalingrad *Ahem*
Important: If you want to know more about the first raid on the Tirpitz that Jingles mentioned at 3:00, then look up 'The greatest raid of all' narrated by Jeremy Clarkson. It's extremely good and explains so much about the mission and the consequences on the Tirpitz
My maternal Grandfather grew up in Tromsoe during WW2. He was 10 when Tirpitz was attcked and capsized and remembers that cold, Sunday morning like it was last week. All my childhood, he has told my stories and memories from those day, many of them about the Tirpitz. Stories about just how big she was. How beautiful she was. Stories about when she sailed by, she was called a floating mountain. Stories about how the Tall Boy Bombs exploding, echoed throughout the mountains and could be heard many miles away. Stories about when she had capsized and layed up side down, she was still large as a hill. Stories about the scrapping, and recovering the remains of hundreds of young sailers, decomposed and blown apart. Stories about the germans forces in general and how they were nice, young men, who have chocolate to children. My grandfather is an old man now, but the memories of the days of his youth still beside him. Thank you!
***** Well I just figured that from the fact that they put so much resources in to putting them down. Have we met in comments before? Your name is familiar.
As soon as he mentioned St. Nazaire, I immediately got flashbacks to Medal of Honor: European Assault... man, the later missions of that game were evil...
The huuge Bismarck and Tirpitz being only tier 8 makes me wonder what the tier 10 german ships might be... H-class battleship proposals? H-44 with 8x506mm cannons ? :D
+Magni56 right, why would the germans get the biggest guns in an russian game anyway. Could have atleast added the H42. H-44 with 48cm and less of them wouldnt hurt that much and actualy rewards you with an good battleship compared to the allied ones atleast at the end of the tree.
Since Jingles mentioned Tirpitz during Mingles #200. A RAF Avro Lancaster called Easy Elsie crash-landed in a mire not far from my childhood home in northern Sweden during the Operation Obviate in 1944. The goal was to sink the Tirpitz as it was moored in Tromsø, Norway. Supposedly Easy Elsie was hit, lost two engines and started to leak fuel during the bombing run. With no chance to fly back to England the captain headed for neutral Sweden for an emergency landing on a mire/bog. The crew survived, but the wreck of the plane is still there. Btw, love your channel Jingles :)
Interesting fact: The Tirpitz's escape into the Atlantic from the Baltic Sea was the reason for Denmark being granted full rights to, in the event of another World War outbreak, mine the entire Kattegat strait and surrounding waters as it sees fit, with no electronic records of mine placement. We had a lot of mine-layers during WWII, but we were not given permission to use them before Germany occupied us. If we had, nothing would have gotten in or out of the Baltic without a lot of trouble.
Tier 6 maybe even 7 (has six guns which fired at 2.5 rpm IRL) probably. But the fact that it uses diesel engines makes me think that the engine won't break very easily.
+ProudToBeNoob Not sure how WG is going to implement the 'pocket Battleships' they had about the same armor and handling as the Cleveland/Pensacola class cruisers with 6x same gun type as the Bismark class, will change things up alot. All of the German heavy cruisers had larger guns than the USN/IJN ships of the same time and about the same armor and sea-fairing performance.
Fortus Victus No, not the same guns, the Deutschland class had 11" not 15". Plus the German cruisers had the same size (basically) guns as the USN, 150mm light cruiser guns; and 203mm for the Admiral Hipper class.
+Fortus Victus No, they weren't the same type of guns as the Bismarck class (15" guns), they weren't even the same gun type as the Scharnhorst (which DID have 11" guns). Similar triple turret design (2 turrets instead of 3, but still, different type of gun as well.) Also, the Admiral Hipper class didn't have larger guns than USN/IJN ships of the time either; they all used 8" guns. Caliber *length* - perhaps, I seem to recall the Ad. Hipper ships being around 8"/L60 compared to say, USN 8"/L55 or IJN L50. Lastly, none of the Kreigsmarine cruisers were very good at sea-keeping compared to the USN/IJN/RN cruisers.

Hey Jingles can you make a playlist with all your historical videos? I absolutely love watching these. It would make it so much easier to watch them. Right now it's not easy to locate all of them and i give up. Thank you either way.
So almost 4 years after this video posted... I find it. I just acquired the Tirpitz... (WoW Blitz version) and I like the ship, but really need to learn to play her. I get killed a lot and I'm not doing much damage. But the first thing that struck me is the hit points.... mine has 10,000 less than the ship in the video. I don't know if that is because Blitz has different stats than the PC version, or because the programmers lowered it. The other thing I noticed is that mine does not have a spotter plane. Again... I don't know if it's a Blitz variant. I don't play the computer version of the game. At least not yet, anyway. Either way, I like playing her. But I need to get smarter and better with her. Thanks for the review! P.S. I really enjoy your videos!
That happens to me too. Strong in quarter combat but when the enemy is CV or USS BB...Most of time I’ll be screwed lol Plus tier 8 in blitz is where most top player would like to play. So it might harder to get better with Tirpitz with gorillas player around :=/
Thought I wouldn't like World of Warships. Jingles, your enthusiasm towards the game and naval forces of the world made me give it a chance. Great videos, keep it up! Love from Finland!
8:40 Wait. "If you can't hit the target, don't drop the bomb." How does that work because i heard that there was a permanent rule that no bomber should ever take its bombs back to base. Especially very heavy bombs like the Tallboy.
+RevanBladeZ That rule was in effect for extremely long bombing runs. Because if they didn't drop their load on the target, they would run out of fuel on the way back to the airstrip.
+mcsquizzy440 yeah, they weren't allowed to drop the tall bombs unless they could of hit their target. Otherwise they were told to bring them back because of their sheer cost
Marvellous introduction to a legendary ship! I was very impressed to see the thorough amount of work you have put in to give us a run-through of your impressions of the battleship in-game along with the historical overview as to why this particular ship is so very special. Earlier this year I read Patrick Bishop's book about Churchill's obsessive determination to get rid of the threat posed by the Tirpitz - I was amazed to find out just how much of the war was spent trying to knock it out of action. Incredible story! Thanks for the vid, matey.
Fun fact.. I know.. its 2 years late.. But he mistakes the Amagi for a cruiser and corrects it to a battleship.. aaaaand hes both wrong and right.. The Amagi-class is a battlecruiser consisting of Amagi, Akagi, Atago and Takao ( Yes no not that Takao. The Takao-class is a heavy cruiser and consisted of the 4 ships Takao, Atago, Maya and Chōkai )
I like the history lesson that comes with the new ship reviews. While I initially started watching your channel for World of Tanks, you are the reason that I actually started playing WoWS. Your channel is awesome no matter which game you show in your videos. Being a navy vet myself, your humor on some subjects seems very at home to me. Keep up the good work. Fair winds and following seas Admiral Jingles.
@@Platinumsniper european assault. Lomg story short you have a mission to ST. Nazaire. That was one hell of a game tbh. I cant say maybe it was in both games tho it was long time ago.
Qb did put up a video of the Tirpitz too but there is something special with you Jingles, narrating a review of a german epic battleship that pushes the quality up a notch farther than Qbs video. Good work!
Being from Campbeltown, Argyll my favorite part in today's video is HMS Campbeltown :) as a kid I had a tour of the type 22 HMS Campbeltown with the school and got to ring the original HMS Campbeltown's bell. The type 22 was decommissioned a while back and the bell given back to Campbeltown USA
+The Mighty Jingles Wow the first reply from the mighty man himself. I have a lot of gold so if she is put into the shop would she also be put in game?
I love how you do your research Jinggles. Very in depth and entertaining. As a British squid I would expect nothing else. One squid to another God bless.
Love the history talk as always Jingles but just a little physics 101. 7:40 - "The bomb was so heavy that it actually reached supersonic speeds in descent." The mass of an object does not affect its falling speed, the Tallboy was fast because it was streamlined and had angled fins which made it spin as it fell.
Looking at the Tirpitz I sincerely hope that the British still retain the fastest fire rate when they are eventually put in, considering the Warspite is tier 6 and Tirpitz tier 8 and the Tirpitz reloads only marginally faster it looks like this hopefully will be true. PS; From experience I know that the Amagi is a floating citadel, seeing Vava get one shot like that is just the Amagi in a nutshell.
why would the uk battleships get the fastest rate of fire considering the warspite has the largest guns at tier 6? although i have absolutely no idea what battleships they will have at the top tiers. i dont think their biggest constructed battleship will reach tier 10 so i wonder how that will work out.
DEANOGTO Because historically British battleships always had the fastest fire rate, it was so reinforced in the Royal naval to keep being the fastest loading ships that it led to many ships simply blowing up at the battle of Jutland because the British gun operators were cutting corners to get that extra few seconds of fire per minute.
Jingles! I have been going around the world spreading your mighty name and will continue so until the mighty jingles is mightier than all the other youtubers!
I just had to say many thanks for introducing me to Fiaura the Tank Girl on RUclips. She does World of Tanks, World of Warships, Armored Warfare, and other gaming videos. She also livestreams Wot on RUclips. She works hard growing her channel and has a unique viewpoint and style. Folks are missing something if they do not check it out. Expert gameplay, commentary, and humor. She more than a pretty face, though folks, she does well there too. Welcome back Adm. Jingles.
"She's more than a pretty face though folks, and she does well there too" Lol, Fiaura is a dude, and rather hard to look at. Excellent gamer though, with an ok show (pretty good replays).
I feel that it's worthy of mentioning that I live extremely close to where the Tirpitz was sunk, it's no less then a 10 minutes drive from my home. We have the Tirpitz monument here as well as the Tirpitz museum :)
And this is why you follow Jingles' channel. I have seen 3-4 other Tirpitz videos, all just listing stats and comparing Tirpitz to other ships, but this video is a whole history lesson too... :-)
This video - Back in the day when the Tirpitz and Bismarck were some of the best ships in the game... when the game was simpler, less nonsense. Ya know... a good game. RIP World of Warships 2021.
i literally don't understand my relationship with Wows anymore :( I used to have a 64% wr in the closed beta but since it went into open beta my wr is horrific. Most games Im right at the top of my team but it doesn't seem to matter how much i do :/ I know its all about luck with teams and everything, but it feels like its really stacked against me xD Shame because i used to love the game
Ok, dumb noob question time from player who plays this game from Alpha; how the hell do you get that high top view when shooting your guns? As seen on 18:17?? I think I haven't seen any key for that function in game...
The game play was great as always, but I’d watch this video just for the Tirpitz history lesson. Wish you would do this type of video more often, but I’m happy to take it when I can get it. I’ve probably watched this particular video 4 or 5 times in the past 2 years.
@@Vatsyayana87 It is not a shame tho. Why is anything Nazis did a shame I dont get you people. Yea Nazis killed people but I guess Russians didnt I guess american 2 attomic bombs were not a crime against people and civilians.I mean truth to be told in war all sides commit crimes and I am not deffending Nazis or anything I am pointing out a fact. A Carpet operation from British was also well planed and executed to destroy to nothing German Cities I guess yea and this was a plan to do to all of them in Germany not 1 or 2 but all. This is all fine and not forget that these >Nazis pulled Germany out from economyc colaps developed the fearsome millitary and airforce and also built 2 of the most feared batlleships in Europe in quite short time plus Authobahn built by them is in use even today. So yea they also did great things. I will also say that Tirpitz and BIsmarck are great things sad they both sank and we never saw them in their glory.
@@rtwiceorb770 Its really simple to get, yes we all have done incredibly ugly things, but I do think there is a difference in doing those things because you're back is against a wall because of an evil group threatening all peace for humanity, and a group doing those things without provocation, which makes them evil like the Nazis and Japanese of WW2. If our bombers had any sort of accuracy whatsoever I promise you there wouldn't have been "strategic bombing" or maybe the atom bomb, though that was just as much because when it comes to invading Japan, there are not really any civilians, the women and children would have attacked us like a military force. Bombing them so severely brought their population to the same conclusion as it was forced to come to one way or another. But it saved many lives of the side that was not going around raping and murdering millions without provocation. The enemy powers of WW2 were the pinicule of evil of modern history. Except italy, they were just cowards trying to be as selfish but couldnt perform well enough to even be considered a threat to the world whatsoever. Nobody would have been hurt by England or America untill they were forced to act in a defense of terror and annihilation. Japan and Germany at the time were doing the worst crimes possible because they wanted to. That is the difference.
@@Vatsyayana87 that is quite wrong what you said beacuse the first world war and what your good and nice side did gave germany or these bad guys pover. But its a history lesson and its a long story. Long story short trade deals america france UK to Japan not giving Itally what was promised after ww1 if it joins and treaty of versailes which was a direct hit on german economy. These things got you war again but who cares good people won
@@rtwiceorb770 You didnt explain anything of why what i said was wrong? I was explaining why the entire world hates Nazis, not what Nazis used as their excuse to be evil. The treaty of WW1 is a different story and in my only slightly educated opinion, the Germans deserved to be treated badly because they were all about sparking that horrible war, they were looking for any excuse and just allowed Austria to be the catalyst. Though there were a dozen countries begging for a reason atm so i dont only blame them for WW1 like so many do. And to hell with what was promised to Italy, again during that war they were nothing but greedy cowards only doing what was better for them at any cost to others. I dont say this as just a whiny American, for i am Italian as well. But through both of those eras Italy was nothing but shameful.. I dont consider the US and UK only nice and good, but i do consider their form at that time as much better then Germany Italy Japan and Russia of those times. Im just glad that we are all MUCH better people now, though Russia still seems to have a slight question mark to their worldly objectives.
20:52 the shells of the tirpitz also seem to fly much faster i think i remember something like around 12 sec or so for max range... when i played it at gamescom...
I am relatively new to your channel but I really like the history you give on these ships before going into the gameplay. I have a lot of WoT videos to go back and watch. Thank you for your content, it is very informative and well put together.
Jingles! There is a fairly old card game called Naval War, published by Avalon Hill. It may not be produced anymore, but it is like a card version of World of Warships. You have a fleet of different ships, with different caliber guns, like 15'', 14'', 12.6'' and the monster 18'' of the Musashi and Yamato. You draw 'Salvo' cards, and play the appropriate caliber 'salvo' with what ships have those guns. There are also carriers from the US, UK, and Japan. It's a very fun game, and I think you would very much enjoy it.
Didn't the Brits switch to metric a while back? It's really, really annoying to have gun calibres given in incomprehensible inches. WoW gives all info in millimeters, so use that please!!
+AAA9734 You know, it's not that hard to "comprehend" inches if you're willing to take two minutes to commit to memory that one of them is equal to roughly 2.5 centimetres. Seriously. It's not even a hard conversion to remember. Stop blaming the imperial system for your own ineptitude.
Saint-Nazaire is in Brittany. The huge Joubert drydock built for SS Normandie was the only port on the Atlantic capable of servicing the German battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz.
fun fact, all the german ships in game atm are ''premiums'' the Bismarck, Tirpitz, Hermelin and Dresden all 4 are booked as ''prems''. (yay for getting to play with her at gamescom :3) loved every single second of the time I had with her ^^
torpedos canot penetrade his armor bombs canot penetrade deck armor but in game every torpedo and every bomb 500lb will penetrade tirpiz Tirpiz is a weak ship in world of warships! Shame
I remember my granddad telling about the raid on the Tirpitz. He was flying one of the Albacores. He seemed to think the water was too shallow and most the torpedoes hit the bottom of the bay.
If anyone has played the Classic Call of Duty, remember that ship you got to get on and destroy equipment in? Yup, The Tirpitz and I didn't know that until I actually looked at the ship in detail.
One of the major developments for battleships during the 1920s and 30s was a significant improvement in engine power, which is why WW2 battleships could go 27 knots plus, and there was a blurring between battleship and battlecruiser.
Hey Jingles did you know that the Germans actually built three hulls for these battleships although the third was turned into an aircraft carrier known as the "Graf zeppelin". They actually stopped construction of it but it was meant to carry 46 aircraft, 16 fighters and 30 dive bombers.
Hey Jingles, I've probably watched all your videos in the past 3 years and just wanted to say that this one is put together exceptionally well. I really enjoyed it despite not playing WoWS myself. Just don't get your hopes up too high though, you remember what they did with the Löwe when it was a beast in WoT.
Excellent history lesson and review as usual, Jingles. I don't play WoW - only WoT - but I still enjoy these reviews. And who knows, just as your channel drew me into WoT, one day it'll probably draw me into WoW too.
Oh wow jingles my heart droped their when you said Lossiemouth my home town :) RAF lossiemouth had also been a place where beufighters flew and is still a major RAF base today.

Since Jingles mentioned Tirpitz during Mingles #200.
A RAF Avro Lancaster called Easy Elsie crash-landed in a mire not far from my childhood home in northern Sweden during the Operation Obviate in 1944. The goal was to sink the Tirpitz as it was moored in Tromsø, Norway. Supposedly Easy Elsie was hit, lost two engines and started to leak fuel during the bombing run. With no chance to fly back to England the captain headed for neutral Sweden for an emergency landing on a mire/bog. The crew survived, but the wreck of the plane is still there.
Btw, love your channel Jingles :)
Without a doubt, this is the WoW channel. Jingles' passion for ships shines through.
Interesting fact: The Tirpitz's escape into the Atlantic from the Baltic Sea was the reason for Denmark being granted full rights to, in the event of another World War outbreak, mine the entire Kattegat strait and surrounding waters as it sees fit, with no electronic records of mine placement.

Hey Jingles can you make a playlist with all your historical videos? I absolutely love watching these. It would make it so much easier to watch them. Right now it's not easy to locate all of them and i give up. Thank you either way.
up
Wait a battleship with torpedos and it is german?
Shut up and take my money :P
+Feuer der Veränderung Many Battleships had torpedoes, it's just the Bismarck and Scharnhorst class were unique in carrying it above water.
Take my house,my wife,my car,and ma virginity if you want,I REALY NEED THAT SHIP XD
This is one of the best WoW videos I've ever watched, as well as being one of the best videos on the Tirpitz I have ever watched. Underrated AF.
So almost 4 years after this video posted... I find it. I just acquired the Tirpitz... (WoW Blitz version) and I like the ship, but really need to learn to play her. I get killed a lot and I'm not doing much damage. But the first thing that struck me is the hit points.... mine has 10,000 less than the ship in the video. I don't know if that is because Blitz has different stats than the PC version, or because the programmers lowered it. The other thing I noticed is that mine does not have a spotter plane. Again... I don't know if it's a Blitz variant. I don't play the computer version of the game. At least not yet, anyway. Either way, I like playing her. But I need to get smarter and better with her.
Thanks for the review!
P.S. I really enjoy your videos!
That happens to me too. Strong in quarter combat but when the enemy is CV or USS BB...Most of time I’ll be screwed lol
Plus tier 8 in blitz is where most top player would like to play. So it might harder to get better with Tirpitz with gorillas player around :=/
Thought I wouldn't like World of Warships. Jingles, your enthusiasm towards the game and naval forces of the world made me give it a chance. Great videos, keep it up!
Love from Finland!
8:40 Wait. "If you can't hit the target, don't drop the bomb." How does that work because i heard that there was a permanent rule that no bomber should ever take its bombs back to base. Especially very heavy bombs like the Tallboy.
+RevanBladeZ There's exceptions to every rule.
+RevanBladeZ That rule was in effect for extremely long bombing runs. Because if they didn't drop their load on the target, they would run out of fuel on the way back to the airstrip.
+mcsquizzy440 yeah, they weren't allowed to drop the tall bombs unless they could of hit their target. Otherwise they were told to bring them back because of their sheer cost
+Conor5291 *boy
Marvellous introduction to a legendary ship! I was very impressed to see the thorough amount of work you have put in to give us a run-through of your impressions of the battleship in-game along with the historical overview as to why this particular ship is so very special. Earlier this year I read Patrick Bishop's book about Churchill's obsessive determination to get rid of the threat posed by the Tirpitz - I was amazed to find out just how much of the war was spent trying to knock it out of action. Incredible story! Thanks for the vid, matey.
Catching up on the many interesting videos
Love how you add in a quick history lesson on the real ships
You are seriously the most mellow gamer I have ever seen. Definitely makes you more interesting to listen to!
Fun fact.. I know.. its 2 years late.. But he mistakes the Amagi for a cruiser and corrects it to a battleship.. aaaaand hes both wrong and right.. The Amagi-class is a battlecruiser consisting of Amagi, Akagi, Atago and Takao ( Yes no not that Takao. The Takao-class is a heavy cruiser and consisted of the 4 ships Takao, Atago, Maya and Chōkai )
I really appreciate the little history lessons you give in these videos. I'm a total war history nerd and I eat this stuff up.
26:00 The Amagi is now a Cruiser.
Classic Jingles ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
*laugh track and 90's Sitcom jingle plays*
I like the history lesson that comes with the new ship reviews. While I initially started watching your channel for World of Tanks, you are the reason that I actually started playing WoWS. Your channel is awesome no matter which game you show in your videos. Being a navy vet myself, your humor on some subjects seems very at home to me. Keep up the good work. Fair winds and following seas Admiral Jingles.
I remeber that raid from Medal Of Honor European Assault.
+swack24 Same.
Wasn't that in Medal of Honor Allied Assault?
@@Platinumsniper european assault. Lomg story short you have a mission to ST. Nazaire. That was one hell of a game tbh. I cant say maybe it was in both games tho it was long time ago.
Qb did put up a video of the Tirpitz too but there is something special with you Jingles, narrating a review of a german epic battleship that pushes the quality up a notch farther than Qbs video. Good work!
Domination games can't end in draws, Jingles. The team with the most points when time runs out is the winner.
in other words the team with most points wins when timer runs out.
+Pete Mason No, the most timer is winner when the points run out. But you were close!
+frealms The timer always wins.
+Rdlprmpf12 lol so true
+Einsig an Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio fan?
Thank you Jingles for these long WoWs videos. We can learn about the ships history and at the same time see some really good gameplay.
So...
Can the Warspite get her torpedoes now? Since we're doing that now?
+Captain Carthage if they're mounted on the deck of the ship, maybe. If they're mounted underwater in the hull of the ship, no.
+Captain Carthage Tirpitz actually had torpedoes installed during 1942 refit. They were supposed to help her at raiding somehow.
+Frid Kun obviously land torpedoes.
+Frid Kun ...and the Warspite was built with torpedo tubes.
+Kasai
What possible difference does that make?
Being from Campbeltown, Argyll my favorite part in today's video is HMS Campbeltown :) as a kid I had a tour of the type 22 HMS Campbeltown with the school and got to ring the original HMS Campbeltown's bell. The type 22 was decommissioned a while back and the bell given back to Campbeltown USA
Sir Jingles, Would you happen to have a date for this beauty? Also what might she cost?
+Pandemic4444 A date, I do but I can't say. Let's just say don't start reading any long books or you'll miss it. Or short ones for that matter.
+The Mighty Jingles Wow the first reply from the mighty man himself. I have a lot of gold so if she is put into the shop would she also be put in game?
+The Mighty Jingles It's going to be premium only isn't it? :(
+Pandemic4444 On the 29th
+Pandemic4444 Your profile pic makes me dislike you on 16 different levels. i am restraining myself hardcore because the salt mine overseer is near.
I love how you do your research Jinggles. Very in depth and entertaining. As a British squid I would expect nothing else. One squid to another God bless.
I remember watching Jeremy Clarkson talk about the events of San Nazaire with the commandos.
That was a pleasure to play against you and the Tirpitz Jingles, thank you. [Well if you remember me, i doubt it...]
ah, the Tall Boy... the MOAB of the WW2 :)
at the time it was biggest bomb ever, only to be surpassed by Grand Slam 9000kg bomb in 1945
And then the Mericans came in, with their new fangled nukes! Damn kids!
+Toby Wood Well, the atomic bombs were not bigger.
In terms of size atleast ;P
+Blueeagle Ahem: Tsar Bomba
Nathan Peterson I didn´t know that Soviet Hydrogen bombs were ready in WW2.
we speak of "at the time", being 1945
Blueeagle Oh, ok, but yeah let's go with they did have them, that would definitely make history interesting :P
Love the history talk as always Jingles but just a little physics 101.
7:40 - "The bomb was so heavy that it actually reached supersonic speeds in descent."
The mass of an object does not affect its falling speed, the Tallboy was fast because it was streamlined and had angled fins which made it spin as it fell.
Looking at the Tirpitz I sincerely hope that the British still retain the fastest fire rate when they are eventually put in, considering the Warspite is tier 6 and Tirpitz tier 8 and the Tirpitz reloads only marginally faster it looks like this hopefully will be true.
PS; From experience I know that the Amagi is a floating citadel, seeing Vava get one shot like that is just the Amagi in a nutshell.
why would the uk battleships get the fastest rate of fire considering the warspite has the largest guns at tier 6? although i have absolutely no idea what battleships they will have at the top tiers. i dont think their biggest constructed battleship will reach tier 10 so i wonder how that will work out.
DEANOGTO Because historically British battleships always had the fastest fire rate, it was so reinforced in the Royal naval to keep being the fastest loading ships that it led to many ships simply blowing up at the battle of Jutland because the British gun operators were cutting corners to get that extra few seconds of fire per minute.
Quantum Shock
wow but what do you reckon will be the uks tier 10 battleship?
+DEANOGTO most likely the hms vanguard tier 9 probably lion class and the king george as tier 8. just my guess
DEANOGTO Probably Vanguard, or a similar paper design, although Vanguard had a quadruple barrel turret so, there's that.
Jingles! I have been going around the world spreading your mighty name and will continue so until the mighty jingles is mightier than all the other youtubers!
I just had to say many thanks for introducing me to Fiaura the Tank Girl on RUclips. She does World of Tanks, World of Warships, Armored Warfare, and other gaming videos. She also livestreams Wot on RUclips. She works hard growing her channel and has a unique viewpoint and style. Folks are missing something if they do not check it out. Expert gameplay, commentary, and humor. She more than a pretty face, though folks, she does well there too. Welcome back Adm. Jingles.
"She's more than a pretty face though folks, and she does well there too"
Lol, Fiaura is a dude, and rather hard to look at. Excellent gamer though, with an ok show (pretty good replays).
Your strategic play by play is invaluble for any that play this game
U just earned a new sub! First time watching and it was great 👍🏼
26:02 ...so I don't run into this cruiser.....
*amagi: Am I a joke to you?!"*
I feel that it's worthy of mentioning that I live extremely close to where the Tirpitz was sunk, it's no less then a 10 minutes drive from my home.
We have the Tirpitz monument here as well as the Tirpitz museum :)
Royal airforce cant hit tirpitz wow
Tirpitz was blessed
The best part of the video was the history at the beginning. I knew some of the information, but putting it all together was great.
2:48 Medal of Honor: European Assault anyone?
That 10 minuets at the start or "story time with jingles" is worth 2 years of subscription alone :)
So German battleships = British heavy tanks (almost) confirmed.
+Daniel Allen except faster :D
+Daniel Allen German Battleships = IS 3s :)
+Daniel Allen seems like german battleships are kinda like german tanks, with low caliber, accurate fast firing guns
+Daniel Allen Wait no more. The leaks are here. :ritastatusreport.blogspot.nl/2015/08/chieftain-on-supertest.html,
+Daniel Allen Ummm.....nooo, German Battleships = German Battleships :)
I love quickbaby's videos, but have been waiting for Jingles's Tirpitz video for ages!!! [Settles down, gets the popcorn]
you're nagging my toe with that pronunciation of Nagato xD
I've watched this video, I don't how many times, still worthy of a re-watch once in a while.
I am going to enjoy getting this ship.
And this is why you follow Jingles' channel. I have seen 3-4 other Tirpitz videos, all just listing stats and comparing Tirpitz to other ships, but this video is a whole history lesson too... :-)
Tirpitz was not designed as a commerce raider. She was a Plan Z ship.
Like the Yamato, since the creation of the Iowa
Well it would’ve acted as a commerce raider, just as the Bismarck did.
This video - Back in the day when the Tirpitz and Bismarck were some of the best ships in the game... when the game was simpler, less nonsense. Ya know... a good game.
RIP World of Warships 2021.
i literally don't understand my relationship with Wows anymore :(
I used to have a 64% wr in the closed beta but since it went into open beta my wr is horrific. Most games Im right at the top of my team but it doesn't seem to matter how much i do :/
I know its all about luck with teams and everything, but it feels like its really stacked against me xD
Shame because i used to love the game
Ok, dumb noob question time from player who plays this game from Alpha; how the hell do you get that high top view when shooting your guns? As seen on 18:17?? I think I haven't seen any key for that function in game...
Shame how most big badass ships were sunk by aircraft instead of epic gunnery battles between other ships.
The game play was great as always, but I’d watch this video just for the Tirpitz history lesson. Wish you would do this type of video more often, but I’m happy to take it when I can get it. I’ve probably watched this particular video 4 or 5 times in the past 2 years.
The Tirpitz's story made me cry. Such a beautiful ship lost forever
yeah except its sole purpose was to ensure the starvation of women and children.. The only shame is that it was commanded by Nazis.
@@Vatsyayana87 It is not a shame tho. Why is anything Nazis did a shame I dont get you people. Yea Nazis killed people but I guess Russians didnt I guess american 2 attomic bombs were not a crime against people and civilians.I mean truth to be told in war all sides commit crimes and I am not deffending Nazis or anything I am pointing out a fact. A Carpet operation from British was also well planed and executed to destroy to nothing German Cities I guess yea and this was a plan to do to all of them in Germany not 1 or 2 but all. This is all fine and not forget that these >Nazis pulled Germany out from economyc colaps developed the fearsome millitary and airforce and also built 2 of the most feared batlleships in Europe in quite short time plus Authobahn built by them is in use even today. So yea they also did great things. I will also say that Tirpitz and BIsmarck are great things sad they both sank and we never saw them in their glory.
@@rtwiceorb770 Its really simple to get, yes we all have done incredibly ugly things, but I do think there is a difference in doing those things because you're back is against a wall because of an evil group threatening all peace for humanity, and a group doing those things without provocation, which makes them evil like the Nazis and Japanese of WW2.
If our bombers had any sort of accuracy whatsoever I promise you there wouldn't have been "strategic bombing" or maybe the atom bomb, though that was just as much because when it comes to invading Japan, there are not really any civilians, the women and children would have attacked us like a military force. Bombing them so severely brought their population to the same conclusion as it was forced to come to one way or another. But it saved many lives of the side that was not going around raping and murdering millions without provocation.
The enemy powers of WW2 were the pinicule of evil of modern history. Except italy, they were just cowards trying to be as selfish but couldnt perform well enough to even be considered a threat to the world whatsoever.
Nobody would have been hurt by England or America untill they were forced to act in a defense of terror and annihilation.
Japan and Germany at the time were doing the worst crimes possible because they wanted to. That is the difference.
@@Vatsyayana87 that is quite wrong what you said beacuse the first world war and what your good and nice side did gave germany or these bad guys pover. But its a history lesson and its a long story. Long story short trade deals america france UK to Japan not giving Itally what was promised after ww1 if it joins and treaty of versailes which was a direct hit on german economy. These things got you war again but who cares good people won
@@rtwiceorb770 You didnt explain anything of why what i said was wrong?
I was explaining why the entire world hates Nazis, not what Nazis used as their excuse to be evil.
The treaty of WW1 is a different story and in my only slightly educated opinion, the Germans deserved to be treated badly because they were all about sparking that horrible war, they were looking for any excuse and just allowed Austria to be the catalyst. Though there were a dozen countries begging for a reason atm so i dont only blame them for WW1 like so many do.
And to hell with what was promised to Italy, again during that war they were nothing but greedy cowards only doing what was better for them at any cost to others. I dont say this as just a whiny American, for i am Italian as well. But through both of those eras Italy was nothing but shameful..
I dont consider the US and UK only nice and good, but i do consider their form at that time as much better then Germany Italy Japan and Russia of those times.
Im just glad that we are all MUCH better people now, though Russia still seems to have a slight question mark to their worldly objectives.
20:52 the shells of the tirpitz also seem to fly much faster i think i remember something like around 12 sec or so for max range... when i played it at gamescom...
Kiel is my hometown! =)
I am relatively new to your channel but I really like the history you give on these ships before going into the gameplay. I have a lot of WoT videos to go back and watch. Thank you for your content, it is very informative and well put together.
the Bismark was not sunk it was scuttled
It was sunk. How else did it end up on the bottom of the ocean?
I remember getting this ship back when it was first released. I can’t believe how many years ago that was.
Yay finally a german battleship! Raaaar!
Jingles! There is a fairly old card game called Naval War, published by Avalon Hill. It may not be produced anymore, but it is like a card version of World of Warships. You have a fleet of different ships, with different caliber guns, like 15'', 14'', 12.6'' and the monster 18'' of the Musashi and Yamato. You draw 'Salvo' cards, and play the appropriate caliber 'salvo' with what ships have those guns. There are also carriers from the US, UK, and Japan. It's a very fun game, and I think you would very much enjoy it.
Didn't the Brits switch to metric a while back? It's really, really annoying to have gun calibres given in incomprehensible inches. WoW gives all info in millimeters, so use that please!!
It is in millimeters
+AAA9734 You know, it's not that hard to "comprehend" inches if you're willing to take two minutes to commit to memory that one of them is equal to roughly 2.5 centimetres.
Seriously. It's not even a hard conversion to remember. Stop blaming the imperial system for your own ineptitude.
+AAA9734 yes because Inches are SOOOOOOOOOO hard to remember.
tokul76 yup, and if it's an American ship it the proper name is in inches, unless it is otherwise stated.
+AAA9734 Imperial unit definitions are based on metrical ^^. Food for thought
Looking at old gameplay reminds me of the games early innocence.
OMG it's Hitler's super warship and I have to say that ship is a one of a kind also I have to say this ship is a FUCKING bad ass mind my language.
+Fallout_guy88 Well, its one of two of a kind. Its one of two bismark class BBs
+Fallout_guy88 "mind my language" on a jingles vid you must be new here
+jakekillify Though you could argue that because of the modifications Tirpitz received it was unique and therefore, one of a kind.
+jakekillify the tirpitz was 1 meter longer and 2 tons heavier so its kinda one of a kind, especially since it has torpedos.
+Fallout_guy88 Hitler's super warship would be the battleship design "H-44". Look it up.
Saint-Nazaire is in Brittany. The huge Joubert drydock built for SS Normandie was the only port on the Atlantic capable of servicing the German battleships Bismarck and Tirpitz.
the fucking boat game again?
+theknifesong Piss the fuck off.
+theknifesong Oh you noticed that, did you? What gave me away? The dirty great fucking Battleship in the thumbnail?
yes. the fucking boat game again.
+theknifesong A..A..Actually those are are military warships, not boats. You can't fit such big guns on a boat.
+theknifesong I may not enjoy the game in particular but Jingles voice is soothing so I just deal with it without making a tantrum.
fun fact, all the german ships in game atm are ''premiums'' the Bismarck, Tirpitz, Hermelin and Dresden all 4 are booked as ''prems''. (yay for getting to play with her at gamescom :3) loved every single second of the time I had with her ^^
torpedos canot penetrade his armor bombs canot penetrade deck armor but in game every torpedo and every bomb 500lb will penetrade tirpiz
Tirpiz is a weak ship in world of warships! Shame
I remember my granddad telling about the raid on the Tirpitz. He was flying one of the Albacores. He seemed to think the water was too shallow and most the torpedoes hit the bottom of the bay.
19TH COMMENT! OMG UP VOTE MY COMMENT!
+Najeb johnson (ROBLOXFOREVER) i down voted it.
I up voted it HA
:D :O No.
Love going back too ur old videos so much has changed
Good to have you back my lord. Dang but I like this ship. I believe it will suit my play style very well.
If anyone has played the Classic Call of Duty, remember that ship you got to get on and destroy equipment in? Yup, The Tirpitz and I didn't know that until I actually looked at the ship in detail.
I always highly enjoyed his WOT videos but IMHO Jingles has found his true calling in WOWS. Best WOWS RUclipsr no contest.
This has stood the test of time quite well. Good work, thanks, Jingles.
whatttt??? 6 years ago and recommended to me rn
Me too. *▪
Only Jingles can show of this beauty and give me a history lesson to boot. I want this ship now!
I miss Paul's old videos. But the video where he plays the Yamato is my all time favorite.
I love learning about new ships in these videos. Thanks Jingles.
One of the major developments for battleships during the 1920s and 30s was a significant improvement in engine power, which is why WW2 battleships could go 27 knots plus, and there was a blurring between battleship and battlecruiser.
I really like that you tell us the history of the ships and tanks. Keep it up!
man i LOOOOOVE that u tell all the story about the ships/tanks!
Hey Jingles did you know that the Germans actually built three hulls for these battleships although the third was turned into an aircraft carrier known as the "Graf zeppelin". They actually stopped construction of it but it was meant to carry 46 aircraft, 16 fighters and 30 dive bombers.
Hey Jingles, I've probably watched all your videos in the past 3 years and just wanted to say that this one is put together exceptionally well. I really enjoyed it despite not playing WoWS myself. Just don't get your hopes up too high though, you remember what they did with the Löwe when it was a beast in WoT.
Excellent history lesson and review as usual, Jingles. I don't play WoW - only WoT - but I still enjoy these reviews. And who knows, just as your channel drew me into WoT, one day it'll probably draw me into WoW too.
Oh wow jingles my heart droped their when you said Lossiemouth my home town :) RAF lossiemouth had also been a place where beufighters flew and is still a major RAF base today.
Euan Souter, Elgin lad here, served at Lossiemouth in my 22 yrs. Miss the North East.
