For anyone wondering yes, this thing is very effective at top tier. I’ve seen a 2C bis eat 12-15 105mm Rounds simply because it has no armor and half a French platoon inside
So you're telling me that when I play War Thunder I get sniped from 500 meters away through smoke, but Spookston's enemies cannot see a schoolbus-sized monstrosity from 50 meters?
was on a russia map (mozhysk or something like that) and there was 3 2c bis tanks on our team (I being one of them) we formed a flying wedge and slowly but surely pushed the enemy cap and won the match (the rest of our team providing flank guard and repair support) felt like we were made to lead the [land]navy into war...
I mean the ontos m51 and a few other things could probably deal with it plus it would be so big and slow it would not be able to do much against bombs and it would just be permanently disabled from broken tracks and barrels
Just saw someone bringing this monster to 7.3 and get 3 kills with it. Literally everyone struggled to kill it because at this BR everyone uses APDS so it takes multiple round to kill each crew members, unlike APHE which can one shot anything.
Yup and no matter what the tier almost 8kg of explosive mass in a 42kg package dropping on your head is going to ruin your day. It has a rather slow shell so VERY parabolic (aka it arches high) so it make hitting all that soft thin armor up top easy.
@@nil981 My T-54 (1949) doesn't have HEAT round, only APDS and APHE. I didn't use APHE because it was a full uptier so I thought APDS is more reliable to use. 3 shots and that mf still didn't die, finally someone lands a final blow and grants me an assist.
@tuveuxdugateauxalex7162 I believe this one was converted back to normal then changed agian but this time with more armour. I think it was something like 90mm.
The tank was also conceived for crossing canals, which are numerous in the region near the french/belgian/german border. Because like the Maus no bridge would support it's weight...

Have had Kursk banned for the longest time because spending half an hour crossing the map in a heavy tank only to be shot from the other side of the map is...a little infuriating
The 2C is the highest tank ever made with 4,015 meters of high, The Maus is smaller than this monster with its 3,66 meters of high And the 2C is a little longer than the Maus So yeah , definitely the largest tank ever made like said at 0:25
You should make a video on the VK 45.01 (the porshe tiger), unlike the other one, its at 5.3 and has less armor, think it would be interesting to see Maybe you'll get uptiered less :)
I like how it was designed to have a giant skid on the back to help with crossing trenches. Trenches that if they were actually so wide as to require said skid, would be nothing more than artillery round traps.
Dear Spookston, it is I TheSacredJonah, thank you for killing me 3 times in that 1st Poland match. I feel honored having a meme made for my awfulness in WT. :’)
hey spookston! been watching your vids for a while and i love your channel, if possible, could you do a review on south african military vehicles? (the rooikat 75/105, olifant mk1 and mk2, rhino and the ratel). i'd love to see your view on them as i love my nation's vehicles and would be interested in your opinion.
I use the mouse wheel for small gun adjustments, keyboard up/down arrows for big ones, and I push the wheel down to reset the elevation. I need small adjustments for tanks like the Obj 120, and big ones for the AVRE for example.
Was playing the tree version of this. It's hilarious when a tiny tank pulls up beside it. According to wiki " It was, in total volume or physical dimensions, the largest operational tank ever made". I saw a great tank museum video about a tank (I'm sure it was this one) and you can literally walk into the engine compartment and walk around it like you are in the engine room of a cruise liner or something. IT should have a pool and tennis court on top.
I wonder how people at 2.7 not notice a tank the size of a freight train with a full consist behind it. Then again this is 2.7, so many players at this br are somehow both oblivious to huge tanks yet fully aware about lights.
As someone who mains France (yes, I love being tortured every time I open up this game) I use the 2c bis to basically serve as mobile cover for my teammates. I don't bother carrying more than like 20 rounds I just drive around, help repair, and block enemy shots
They nerfed the overpressure In the last update, wich made the su go down cuz of the only good thing it had was the Canon. He still overpressures good, but only in higher calibers and with a well well placed shot
I think youll find the turning radius is yes. it uses all the turning radius of a city block. also, I now want to see the british mark IV from WW1 to compete to cycle of oldest tank to newest

Seriously most maps are utter trash or only fun at certain BRs. Have had Kursk banned for the longest time because spending half an hour crossing the map in a heavy tank only to be shot from the other side of the map is...a little infuriating
6:15 bro did a trickshot
Only in battlefield
Loonytunes ah death
Low BR means that you often find that you can flank people in a barely mobile apartment block with surprising ease.
The 2C is the highest tank ever made with 4,015 meters of high,
The Maus is smaller than this monster with its 3,66 meters of high
And the 2C is a little longer than the Maus
So yeah , definitely the largest tank ever made like said at 0:25
You forgot about K-wagen. Its even bigger.
@@deauthorsadeptus6920 but never made
@@deauthorsadeptus6920 It was longer, but not as high
@@gwetraus9426 and much wider.
There are 2 types of tank survivability. Armor and crew. Respectively Maus and 2C Bis.
Hey Spookston, on your video on WZ305 you said you need to make another one about PTL02. Would be cool to see it next.
6:58 quote of the day.
You should make a video on the VK 45.01 (the porshe tiger), unlike the other one, its at 5.3 and has less armor, think it would be interesting to see
Maybe you'll get uptiered less :)
He made one on the premium Porsche tiger recently
@@michaelstepchuk9354 The other one yes, i mean the marketplace varient
I like how it was designed to have a giant skid on the back to help with crossing trenches. Trenches that if they were actually so wide as to require said skid, would be nothing more than artillery round traps.
It’s less for trenches and more for rivers at this point.
10:54 the fact that in any case
Dear Spookston, it is I TheSacredJonah, thank you for killing me 3 times in that 1st Poland match. I feel honored having a meme made for my awfulness in WT. :’)
hey spookston! been watching your vids for a while and i love your channel, if possible, could you do a review on south african military vehicles? (the rooikat 75/105, olifant mk1 and mk2, rhino and the ratel). i'd love to see your view on them as i love my nation's vehicles and would be interested in your opinion.
"From one super heavy to another, merry Christmas" must be one of my favourite qoute tbh 😂
**vine boom** 6:58
Glad to see someone finally covering the name sake of the "Apex Predator" update.
That is a literal land ship, in not only size and crew amount, but also in maneuverability and dimensions

Some time ago I had a legendary duel with a 2C bis on my P40. One of the peak highlights in my time playing this game.
Audio cutoff at 10:45. A mistake or did you accidently say the n word?
Why did you assume that 💀
Probably said or the fact that I’m fighting shit ass low tiers that don’t know what they are doing
He said "and" bro
I use the mouse wheel for small gun adjustments, keyboard up/down arrows for big ones, and I push the wheel down to reset the elevation.
I need small adjustments for tanks like the Obj 120, and big ones for the AVRE for example.
Genuinely, the amx 30 (1972) could be very good fun for you. Good speed, good gun and a potent 20 mm coax. You could enjoy it
Was playing the tree version of this. It's hilarious when a tiny tank pulls up beside it. According to wiki " It was, in total volume or physical dimensions, the largest operational tank ever made". I saw a great tank museum video about a tank (I'm sure it was this one) and you can literally walk into the engine compartment and walk around it like you are in the engine room of a cruise liner or something. IT should have a pool and tennis court on top.
If you play this with one or two homies it’s probably gonna go better
Everytime that things hits a target I hear the scout saying "Bonk!"
When the panzer 2 hits you with that dollar store 20mm
This tank is hands down the most OP tank in the game for it's battle rating.
the commentary related memes make this golden, so good dude
Oh, I hope the 75mm version comes to the tech tree and the up armored 75mm as a battle pass or event vehicle.
I wonder how people at 2.7 not notice a tank the size of a freight train with a full consist behind it. Then again this is 2.7, so many players at this br are somehow both oblivious to huge tanks yet fully aware about lights.
Idk what's more disrespectfully hilarious, being crushed by Spook or being dragged around as his trophy lol
I need a compilation of every time spookston does a “flapjack close-up scream” edit at 8:24
The char 2c bis is my favorite tank, ever.
It was the only super heavy tank to see combat. And is the current largest tank in WT.
As someone who mains France (yes, I love being tortured every time I open up this game) I use the 2c bis to basically serve as mobile cover for my teammates. I don't bother carrying more than like 20 rounds I just drive around, help repair, and block enemy shots
2S3M maybe? idk what it's like now that overpressure isn't completely broken, but I've had fun with it
They nerfed the overpressure In the last update, wich made the su go down cuz of the only good thing it had was the Canon. He still overpressures good, but only in higher calibers and with a well well placed shot
@@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS I feel like that kind of makes it more fun though, at least in my experience it feels more rewarding when you hit a nice HE shot
@@destroyertank1 yes
Proximity shells are still solid
Both as AA and just nuking you can see by penning top armor
@@commisaryarreck3974 true, i forgot abt the proxy shells. It was very fun to shoot planes bc they were never ready for it
I think youll find the turning radius is yes. it uses all the turning radius of a city block. also, I now want to see the british mark IV from WW1 to compete to cycle of oldest tank to newest
9:20 “poo” *gets the eradication punishment*
it can really 1 shot a tiger 2
I liked this tank before it was even in WT.
Though I did not know about this variant with this turret until it was revealed in the files.
gaijin supervisor: "so pretty much you got a 70 ton fortress that can crawl anywhere at 13 kmh, take an entire salvo of 5 75mm shells, and lob 50 kilogram bombs at anything it sees every 17 seconds?"
dev: "yes"
Gaijin supervisor: "not broken at all! put it in at 1.7!"
Imagine covering it in bushes and brining it to Top Tier
