@@edward_slicer And why not? If we can have this thing at 7.7 sure af can it suffer in urban warfare like tanks actually did. Maybe then we'd get less shitty urban maps.
Kinda weird to see the SPG we had in our Battery while I was in the military, being driven around like a combat tank. Usually that gun barrel is pointing towards the sky.
I find it hilarious that you're facing majority of WWII tanks in this monster. Gen II thermals, autoloaded 155mm cannon, mega fast for its size, and probably the best HE shell in the game... this is truly one of those tanks that deserves an uptier.
That thing completely dominates even when uptiered. I have been playing a lot of 8.3 and I am actually happy to get uptiered and face T-55AMs rather than a team of this op shit.
Things like the 2S3M and Type 75 SPH are MILES of fun to use but the ammo being as hit and miss as it is can make them awfully frustrating to use sometimes. This seems exactly like a high tech version of them.
seeing as this video was posted a minute ago and Odd might still be hanging around, let me say this: Thank you for all your video content and effort. You are the best.
The g6 is only .7 br lower than it, it is actually funny how op this shit is. Also the survavibility on this thing is actually insane. I was not able to one shot it one, even with hesh.
As a former corporal in the Portuguese army, I never quite understood the gaijin's idea of placing artillery as tank destroyers, these are vehicles used for long-range attacks, not for direct combat. I don't understand how gaijin classifies these vehicles as being for direct combat
I think a part of it is they're running out of ideas of stuff to add to the game, so here's an artillery piece to shoot tanks with. As silly as it is, it does look like fun to use. At least if you're as good as Odd is....
What other role would this fill if not for direct combat. We already know artillery gameplay will never be added, so asking for it is stupid. World of Tanks already have that mechanic and it is one of the most hated features in the game. Being hit by an enemy sitting in their spawn for the whole match is just frustrating. If proper artillery mechanics were added, it would just encourage passive gameplay and camping.
i was matched up against one of this thing at 7.3 last night and this thing absolutely destroyed us, laser rangefinder and Massive HE Shell, 2000s tank going against WWII tanks yea seems correct to me
I dont think Odd realizes what bad gun handling means. This thing is far from the worst offender by the looks of it. Rolls out and stops pretty smoothly, sway is not too bad. Other long boys wobble for way longer.
The fact that it's Norwegian like me, has NVD, laser rangefinder, and a hilariously large gun, makes this a great partner for me. I've delayed buying anything for a long while, but this just went straight in the cart. No regrets so far. It's just fun. I really enjoy the slight ambush/sight-line playstyle anyways, so it suits me well.
@@thechickenmaster6543 well, that’s because it is lol Though “balancing” this thing will be basically impossible, and since people have paid for this, nerfing it too hard will end up removing the very things people paid for. Gaijin has put themselves in a bit of a pickle with this one lol
@@arminkaiser8933I love how you clowns everything "P2W" when your wallets cant afford jackshit. Its a glasscanon HE tank, you are having a skill issue lmfao
I Already see this thing going up in B.R to atleast 8.0 because aint no way a laser guided 7.7 tank with 155mm HE round is going to stay at this B.R hope people whoe get to play it now have fun.
14:00 pretty cool seeing the damage to your tank. the blown open container on the back of the turret pretty cool. don't think I've seen that on another tank.
I'd love to see you play a t114! It's got a similar sized ready rack and and LOL amount of penetration with the recoiless rifle. (Side note: the 50 cal has the same velocity, you can use it to gage your aim on the main cannon!)
Hey odd, now that the F6F has gotten a 2000lb bomb I think it'd be cool if you did a 4 man squad collab and coordinated 4 simultaneous drops to just bring in a wall of fire. Like it isn't effective but it certainly sends a message when 4 of those go off in a line
the detonating before hitting them problem i think is it proxying off the barrel in front of them, i would aim a bit to the left or right and i could get people behind things
That is a pefect example of a P2W tank , the amount of hits you survived with no dmg is insane . The T54's .50cal should have killed you , the direct arty hit should , the BTR-ZT should . You have 20mm armour and nobody penetrated you , there's a huge amount of RNG jesus .
I bought the vidar and played about 8 games and I didn’t have this luck but yea the laser range finder is pretty good. And sometimes the HE just doesn’t do anything to Russian heavy’s. It might just be a case of Oddz haveing god luck in these games
can you imagine being in a poor T92 and facing this MONSTER? or, for example, a Tortoise? or, maybe, even the Centurion Mk3? Or, the T26? from 3km away, you're not going to do anything against it, when it has a laser rangefinder and can instasnipe you....... something something Gaijin balancing. should be 8.3 min, imo
I used a ferdinand and faced two of these monsters and I'm just happy I did not get one-shot.. had a hard time killing it with APHE and it killed me by the 4th or 5th shot by the time I remembered I had HE..
Hopelessly OP that thing. Superior to the Object 120 and should be at least 0.3 br higher. I am interested in buying it maybe later during some sale after it got the proper Br. , but at the moment it just feels just p2w dirt easy. Reminds me of the Su-11 issue.
Give the Turan III a try, it's like a Hungarian Pz IV H, but much more mobile, especially in reverse. It also has the same gun as the IV H but I feel like it has better gunlaying, although that might just be the newness Also, it's in the Italian tree so you don't get German teammates as often 👀
This things is amazing. It's a one shot obliterator. It's quick too! I've been bonking tanks and helis with VT all day! Best premium I've ever bought...so far!
When i heard this thing was being added with the equipment it has I said there was no way this thing would be below 8.7, it would be crazy OP anything below that. I was half right.
Eventually there will an artillery tank where you click on the map and it fires a round there with 89% accuracy, unless of course you hit a mountain on the way down. (Large arch upwards every shot)
Yeah, I don't understand which part about it isn't good. Been playing italy 8.3 and it was my first time being happy that I got uptiered because I finally didn't have to face vidars.
“They can look after themselves.” I have enough experience in this game to know exactly how false this is. Edit: I’ve had packet loss so bad before that the game has phased me into solid objects. There’s a building on Rhine that had a Sherman embedded in the wall at one point.
It is broken as fuck. Really mobile, has a laser range finder, short reload, good thermals and is literally impossible to one shot. No matter where you shoot, unless you are firing large caliber HE you can not one shot it from the front. Funny thing is, the G6 which is worse in basically every single way except for turret traverse is only .7 br lower.
I do not get how your audio is so clear and precise. It sounds like a garbled mess in my game even using eq profile specifically designed for war thunder by my headsets manufacturer.
Been binging your videos. 1. EETS A CHIOLD...will never not be funny. 2. Thanks for the good teaching you do. seriously im better within 3 or 4 games after binging your ass for the last few weeks. 3. Thanks for the content dude, you are an awesome dude.
Seeing the loading mechanism is interesting, because Czechoslovakia prototype tank Skoda T25 was actually using this mechanism as well, it is a slightly worse autoloader because it has a magazine esentially that the loader replenishes and it acts as an autoloader for as long as the stowage is filled with shells. I would honestly like more of these tanks. Maybe even add those tanks under Soviet tech tree, or hell even at some point they could create Czechoslovakia tank tree and fill it with some prototypes or paper vehicles because those are at least realistic.
I played around with the proxy fuse in test drive. It seems you need to rangefind and aim a good part higer and then it can oneshot even the heavy tanks sometimes. But its real inconsistent
It would be really interesting if snail did an event on a mega large map and only arty would be allowed. The arty sniper duel would be epic. Top down or drone to see what are you shooting and balistic headings and coordinates in the scope view.
The Leopard 1 did not deserve to be 8.0. 7.3 was a good BR for it, sure it can be annoying to fight but people were crying about it for no reason. The is-6 stayed at 7.0 yet is extremely overpowered and nobody really complained.
@@Igzilee 7.3 was an absolutely atrocious BR for it. 8.0 is no better, the answer isn't putting these vehicles too low, its pulling the BRs further apart.
Seems like heavy tanks are coming back into their own, the HE even has issues with the front of M48s etc. Unless you gurantee you can hit the top of the tanks its definitely kind of a niche vehicle. It exels on open maps where you can sit outside of the visibility range and pop people using the thermals and range finder but city maps are hit and miss when anything can sneeze on you and your dead.
I had a match yesterday where it felt like everyone had these things on the other team, good time killing them up close with the Sd.Kfz. 234, surprisingly easy from the side
reason you got all the skins at the end of the first match is because they changed the requirements to unlock them, you had already met the new requirements before they were made, so you were rewarded :)
One has to wonder why an artillery piece has a laser range finder, considering it would be firing from at least 10km away and out of LOS. And anyone care to bet against it going up to 8.3 within a month?
I will never understand Gaijin and what makes them choose a BR for vehicles (definitely money), but my god I had to face against a team of 3 VIDAR's and they are just horrible to fight against. I might go down in BR for awhile.
Hopefully gaijin will add the Pzh2000 for Germany, it has lrf, thermals, direct fire optics, paranormic sight, and a few other features, it should be 7.7-8.7
It being 7.7 and potentially facing things like the King Tigers or T26s is fucking laughable especially after they moved Leo 1 all the way to 8.0 lol. This thing is getting moved up once the snail filled its greedy pockets on the initial sale
So that is the tank that was shooting my whole team from across the map ...I had just started playing 8.0 with my p.o.s T-54 ...I'm now back to playing 3.7 and 4.3 at least I can leave my spawn at this rank
g6 and Auf1 at 7.0, just 0.7 Br lower and about 2 full BR lower in actual performance. AND recent decompression to get modern technology away from WWII vehicles, and then they do this shit. Its actually unreal.
can you redo your video on the M2A2 at 1.0, i think it was 3 years ago the last time you covered it, be really cool to see you play the smallest main gun in the game

Seeing how long the barrel on this sucker reminded me how different and frustrating this game would be if barrels hit terrain.
Don’t give gaijin any ideas
There are a couple vehicles that do have barrel physics, such as the Swedish Bandkanon
More should have it.
Then people might actually have to play their roles.

As a former corporal in the Portuguese army, I never quite understood the gaijin's idea of placing artillery as tank destroyers, these are vehicles used for long-range attacks, not for direct combat. I don't understand how gaijin classifies these vehicles as being for direct combat
US TD doctrine was to be direct fire artillery that can rapidly deploy. And it’s the most sensible category as it’s not a tank or SPAA.
I think a part of it is they're running out of ideas of stuff to add to the game, so here's an artillery piece to shoot tanks with. As silly as it is, it does look like fun to use. At least if you're as good as Odd is....
Because they are russian.
We know how shitty russian tactics are.
So of course they have shitty ideas and things in a game with combat vehicles.
thats what the norvewegian army wanted this thing to be able to direct fire
What other role would this fill if not for direct combat. We already know artillery gameplay will never be added, so asking for it is stupid.

I will never understand Gaijin and what makes them choose a BR for vehicles (definitely money), but my god I had to face against a team of 3 VIDAR's and they are just horrible to fight against. I might go down in BR for awhile.
I did ...After 3 games playing against these and getting blasted 5 seconds out my spawn ..what's the point? I'm back to playing 3.7 and 4.3
I agree with Odd, this thing I’ll be bazonkers at 7.7 😂
Hopefully gaijin will add the Pzh2000 for Germany, it has lrf, thermals, direct fire optics, paranormic sight, and a few other features, it should be 7.7-8.7
It being 7.7 and potentially facing things like the King Tigers or T26s is fucking laughable especially after they moved Leo 1 all the way to 8.0 lol. This thing is getting moved up once the snail filled its greedy pockets on the initial sale
yeah theres no way this thing is balanced at 7.7 lol, especially as ive noticed at 6.7 you mostly get uptiered to 7.7
This thing can fight things in top tier lol
The cope tears are delicious.
Because of the rp changes, I finished researching the M105 earlier, and I took it out to play, big mistake, Vidar showed me some flames
Most maps in warthunder are not even large enough to fully use this type of artillery. Some of these guns can hit targets up to 20miles.
This tanks haunts my m56 at night
I love how the norwegian tank has swedish speaking crew, unlike other sub-nations like Finland
Developed in South Korea, exported to Norway, but Swedish crews lol
Peep that 9kg of explosive mass on those last two shells... that should overpressure just about anything
The best thing about the vidar is you can 1 shot anything from the front if you hit the roof
So that is the tank that was shooting my whole team from across the map ...I had just started playing 8.0 with my p.o.s T-54 ...I'm now back to playing 3.7 and 4.3 at least I can leave my spawn at this rank
This thing can easily be 9.0
g6 and Auf1 at 7.0, just 0.7 Br lower and about 2 full BR lower in actual performance. AND recent decompression to get modern technology away from WWII vehicles, and then they do this shit. Its actually unreal.
M107 PF is best when aerial targets are doing gun run at you. 155mm F3 is best when you want to personally remove a being
seeing this thing played and being added makes me wonder when they will add the paladin that would be exciting to see.
you got to play the A2d-1. since the last update it got a 4000lbs bomb which is super funny to play with
can you redo your video on the M2A2 at 1.0, i think it was 3 years ago the last time you covered it, be really cool to see you play the smallest main gun in the game
The PF actually detonates above tanks as well.
You need to play the Csaba before the bug is fixed. You can lose your entire turret crew and still shoot
16:40 yeah, mate, using this at 7.7 kinda deserves it
wow mate You doing large tanks right now, do You know what tank is large to ?
Yes You right it is Tortoise ! :D
m1o7 shell is crazy when u aim right above a tank it shotguns and one shots the tank
