I used to repair tanks in the army, not us army.
We had the YP,YPR and leopard tanks which we maintained tested and even drove, shooting or swimming as long it floated .
Like mark81150 said just at the end of ww2 they started to use heavy weapons on the Sherman, and that the allied forces took away the recourses from the Germans they where in short of leopard, especially the new leopard 2, and other tech they had.
If the allied forces did not come in on time, they would be over run by Germans, england was at the brink of being over run, Germany was developing some weird things, like rockets and rocket planes, leopard 2, the mouse, e100, panzer IX panzer X and the Lowe(lion), the last three never came into actual production,as the war was almost over, and they where short on recourses.
In short they where just in time or we all would be speaking German by now.
Now back to the games like war thunder and world of tanks, hitting a tiger 1,2 IX X in the front, with a light tank and kill it (usually one shot), no way possible.
A TD and hitting it from the front with a light tank and kill it, no way.
Those tanks had to be hit from side ways(difficult to find the weak spots and actually hit them), or hit them in the back.
So a actual damage in game is not representing the real truth, but then again it’s a game.
Apart from that lately i see tanks(war thunder) driving straight up onto rocks that are almost vertical, and kill a heavy with just one shot hitting it on the front, cheating you tell me.
Now the fifth of may, you see tanks around here on display, on the streets, you can go into them but not drive or shoot with it, then you have to go to a open day at the army, and if you are lucky you might drive and shoot with a tank, from old to new.
I,m not glorifying Germany, but i must say the Germans had some bad ass equipment, and lucky us in the world, some never ever came into production , or where destroyed while they where on the assembly line.
Hey Joe There is a game called supertuxkart wich it’s a clone of mario kart, and they are making the version .8.2 and it could be interesting se what you think about it, when it be finished, even when I know it’s very far from what you ussualy review you posibly give it a 1/10.
Cool… never worked with any armored units while I was in,.. Air Force SP, ground combat specialist, we were the light infantry that defends US Air Bases around the world. I was an M-60 gunner,.. the Rambo machine gun.. never fired the weapons of WW II.. but it looks fun.. My uncle was in Armored in Vietnam, M-48 Patton.. bigger than the three we see here, 90mm gun.. had his last one shot out from under him, an RPG, killed his crew.. he survived only because he was riding on top of the turret. Tank crews are not impervious.. and we lost so many in WW II, some in Korea, Vietnam…. I salute any man who put his fate in one of those.. in the combat infantry,.. the first rule was, stay away from the tanks.. they draw fire.. again, hats off..
.
Greatly enjoy your videos Joe.. I’m a bit old for a gamer,.. 55, and have been playing them since Pong came out. Pacman used to be an arcade game in bars in and around the base.. first real game love was Morrowind.. my wife and I played that one together..
Frak !! Siting in Sherman tank must be awesome 😀 here in Czech Republic last year we have US army in Pardubice City and im looking into M1 Abrams … such a nice memories 🙂 but Sherman is Sherman …
It would be legit to be able to ride in a tank with Angry Joe!
Funny enough my family owned a military museum in North Wales, UK .. for a few years .. and we had a 56 tonne Chieftain Tank there that was kinda rusted on the outside. My and me cousin spent 3 hours trying to pry open the main hatch which. although unbolted, hadn’t moved in 10 years … Going inside it (finally) and playing with all the controls, yeah .. you realize that you can’t be a 6 foot tall person and not get cut to ribbons on all the sharp surfaces they have inside.
We never got ours to drive sadly but having your own tank to play in was kinda cool .. even if all we could do was manually move the turret around and pretend to shoot things as we pressed every button we could find 😛
Was one those tanks the same of those depicted in the movie “Fury”?
Dude…
I’m a jealous bastard, Joe. It’s a gad dam TANK!
Boom!
Boom!
🙂
You…you…a tank. You lucky piece of… horsenuggets
You lucky son of a…
That is AAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Yes, I am still waiting for him to do RWBY.
RWBY is a very nice series, it have dmc influence in it (thats a good thing 🙂
and i see how you try to advertise it, but i think you in the wrong place, because RWBY is not a game. its true that he does reviews of fims and trailers. but this films are big deal in the geek culture. RWBY is more of a anime. i would respect you more if you were saying something like…..
“hey guys, i know it got nothing to do with any thing, but maybe you like it. its called RWBY”.
Actually I just wanted to see his reaction to the trailers, not doing a review. There is not a lot of RWBY reaction trailer videos. How about the Nostalgia Critic see the trailers since he did a reaction to the Red Wedding of Game of Thrones (even though it was shit), so why not.
I’m glad that Angry Joe didn’t load that M3’s gun cuz he would have lost his thumb lol.
Wow, look at those puny 37mm and 75mm cannons. To think that 120-5mm is now standard caliber for modern MBT’s.
Those are restored WW2 era tanks, there nowhere near as advanced as modern tanks.
Back in those day’s the 75mm was good enuf to knock out those German tanks from there flanks.
It was effective against the German Panzer Mark IV… which was their most commonly used tank… Those were produced in the thousands.. the Tigers were in the hundreds..
.
The issue was never resolved, and a lot of tank crews were sacrificed until the Pershing heavy tank was produced, using the American made 90mm anti-aircraft gun, the biggest gun they could then mount on a tank.. That gun was able to knock out Panthers and Tigers from the front, but came late.. only in the last few months of the war..
Holy crap Joe. You are so lucky. Looks like you guys had a great time.
EA’s lucky that wasn’t that tank or else i would showed them what i felt when i saw ME3’s ending.
correction: that i wasn’t in that tank
i wish i was there with you Joe you have Awesome skills
So jealous…
That is all I can say.
Awesome! Awesome to the max!
holy crap joe
