I have to argue your point to some extent: Simply put, if you want all tanks equal, then all should be the same. In the real world, this EBR did have advantages and the extra 'wheels' were intended to act as both spaced armor AND wheels to prevent the vehicle from being immediately immobilized if a drive or steer wheel were disabled. Now, I agree that they wouldn't be able to drive at full speed or with full mobility before repairs. And receiving repairs on the fly is totally unrealistic… a better balance would be reduced speed UNTIL the vehicle stops for repairs. Additionally, a second hit on the drive or steer wheels should automatically stop the vehicle (or risk a collision), forcing an active repair. There ARE ways to balance it but a repair on the fly should not be permitted.
Hey Claus – Always luv yr videos – EXCEPT – when they hi-lite the wheeled clown cars, especially the EBR-105. So "No Fun for You" today as I bailed out at the 2:56 minute mark.
"Let me farm" good grief. NO! Somebody says that or "let me get the kill". NO! You get it if you can. Otherwise, I'm going for it because I want it too.
I once got a direct hit on an EBR with a 240mm howitzer AP shell from my T92 HMC. It should have punched thru it and turned the EBR into a steel doughnut but instead it hit a wheel and barely slowed the EBR down.
I’m not sure I agree with your stance on the statistics. I agree that statistics don’t lie but it’s all up to the person how to interpret what they are saying. For example the top 10 damages for heavies right now are mostly Amx 54 does that mean it’s easily the best heavy tank even better than a chieftain? I don’t believe so, different factors influenced it being in the top 10 like the recent buff and more players playing it on top of it being actually good now, that doesn’t mean just because it dominates the top replays doesn’t make it the clear cut best. Same way that the FV4005 or FV183 having the most top damage replays certainly doesn’t make it the best TD. The extreme results can be useful but it doesn’t always tell the whole story. For the record though I do agree about the EBR though, death to the clown cars!
The idiots at WG apparently wanted to attract NFS players and that's why they released this EBR fighter. This stupid car just ruined the game and stopped many players from playing it. All light tanks became unusable in front of this EBR contraption. They ruined the game, just with this car, even puncture proof…just tires and no puncture.WG fools are ruining their own game!!! I will wait for them to release flying tanks soon and to attract players from other games, so that in the end only their Bots will be allowed to play alone 😉
If any of you were paying close attention years ago to the original released video about wheeled vehicles by War Gaming, you would recall that they stated that they would have view range that was not as good as most light tanks, and they also stated that their guns would not be as accurate at causing damage on the move. Well, we all know now that we were lied to. Don't believe me, go look up the video and watch it. It took WG forever to address the OP nature of the EBR 105, but there so called nerfs have really done very little to change things. What I find to be the most disappointing thing of all is that no one has ever really focused on the biggest problem with the wheeled vehicles, in particular, the EBR 105. It isn't the the view range, the accuracy, the lack of taking damage when hit, or even the speed. It is the ability they have to turn on a dime and change directions, and no one ever talks about it. No one ever has suggested changing it. There is no way a tank is can turn its hull and/or turret fast enough to match the change of direction from the wheeled vehicles. Take away that single ability from the wheeled vehicles and I would be willing to bet that they would no longer be considered OP and would be a whole lot less toxic for the game. Claus was right in saying that they can do what no other tank can do. I get so sick of hearing the wheeled vehicles being referred to as tanks. THERE NOT!!! Let's call them what they are. They are cars. Cars don't belong in a tank game.
If they just made it go its historical speed, or atleast close to it the ebr would still be good but balanced. Not having the ability to get tracked would be more than enough of an insensitive to use it despite poor view range.
Let's not forget how EBR's can go forward & backwards at similar speeds. Transmissions can't do that, also does the driver have a swivel seat? . Jumping off 30 foot cliffs and rolling with no damage and always landing on wheels. and #1 BS is that it zigzags on ice, mud, snow, sand and never lose traction. Total BS
This reminded me of the 'good old days' when t50-2's used to run around the maps at supersonic speeds (70kph?) and if you hit them there was a large chance it would bounce off, haha, this is such a fucked game.
Say what you want but the game is no more balanced than it was before. I've been in way too many one-sided games. A person shouldn't have to play the same tank 7, 8, 9 or 10 times in a row before you can get 1 win with it. It's still a bullshit game that has become a straight up pay to win game or worst yet a cheaters game. Wargaming wants your money and they could give two shits about fairness.
You want to see ridiculous, there is a "Gendron" wheeled vehicle in tier TWO. When you get a game with tier 1 and 2, the wheeled vehicles make playing the game almost as bad as the tier 2 Pz II J.
Historically inaccurate: did not have a 105mm gun, only 90mm max. The crew should consist of: driver, commander, gunner and rear driver – meaning the commander should operate the radio as well. This inherently would be a nerf due to its effect on crew skill layout. From a gameplay approach: stupid fast with too much firepower, disproportionately beneficial crew layout (situational awareness and recon).
CLAUS what the fuck they put Quaky baby in WOT for his service as a commander. I really wanted you as a tank commander. Saying things like fuck you and screw you and do you like it like that and no fun for you. Man I hope one day I can and I'll put you in an AMERICAN tank not a RUSSIAN one. SO SCREW YOU WARGAMING.
I left tiers 8 through 10 bc of wheelies. WG fixing games with lopsided losses/wins by way of RNG, matchmaking and possibly expanded hit boxes was bad enough but I could deal with it. Adding wheelies was the last straw. I focus on tiers 5-7 with the very occasional tier 8 or tier 4 (like 5% of the time) and just have fun now. Since I don't play wheelies but play a lot of lights, I see them even less when facing tier 8 or 9 bc at least 1 enemy must be a tracked LT as well.
years and years people has been crying for EBR's soon they will remove the tank from the game for too much annoying people crying about the tank that they are incapable to learn how to play it and they're incapable to learn how to fight the tank, its a sadness !!!! I already give up to the game on the first EBR nerf !!!! EBR will be always my favorite tank in the game !!!! stop cry on EBR's KLAUS plz, u never give up lad, just because you brain and most of the brains of the players couldn't hold a fast gameplay as the EBR's gameplays are, insted of you guys choose to learn, you guys actully choose to complain about EBR's and this goes and goes for years, just unreal. this is my point of view of the situation that I can see !!! by the way I start to play the game in 2014 ! peace
Wheelies going 90kph and making 180 degree turns in the space of 3 parking spots would incur g-forces that the human body cannot handle without passing out. The crew would have to be equiped with G-suits (an inflatable suit covering most of the body below the head that applies pressure to keep blood in the brain). Even with a G-suit, they would still need to be wearing a large neck brace to prevent whiplash from the sideways g forces and the sudden stops and reversal of direction. Long story short,… The way these vehicles are portrayed in the game is a joke.
WOT- Ordinary promotion !!! (Haha 3-8-12000 Damage),you won't record 1/4 a quarter of what you see here in the game! Don't buy premium or premium tanks !!! it's even so unnecessarily the server determines the damage..determines by the victory and Defeat..min Damage opponent auto Victory/Big Damage opponent auto Defeat..You have a tank of 8 levels and are in a team approximately down and thus assembled from level 10 = Automatically win because you don't have a chance to shoot down Tier 10 = min Damage = victory..If you are on top partitions,Tier 8 Team assembled Tier min 6 = Automatic = Large Damage opponent = Defeat!! Block server..visibility,detection,damage,opponent damage, you can just do what you want: D !! it's wasted money !! In the game you really have more losses than winnings !!ask a question every day these liars give videos here with such success ask yourself what you play and have you ever recorded what you see here? probably not, so it's easy to play when the admin adjusts his game mode on the server and they deceive you here. Also note that they only offer you premium or 10 level tanks, where you have huge losses in the game even during the premium, especially if you use gold-i (premium ammo) !!! , for 1 battle minus up to 8-20,000 caches … if not more … hm. In addition, this company violates EU law in the freedom of speech and opinion of others in another language !! Thank you -info : Niltark, KRUHNX and Kronk_24 😀
I know lots of players hate arty, but it seems that arty has only mild impact on most games. Especially if games are lasting about 5 minutes- arty can only fire so fast. I would say even bad players can have an impact with an ebr. They just yolo, they may die but the whole team has been spotted
Much respect, Claus, but you limited your criteria to Tier X, making the title of this video click bait. Certainly it's a good possibility that a light tank in the other nine tiers you discarded are worthy of the title compared to the other tanks it's possible for them to face in battle. It's a little ridiculous to say (for example) that the M1 Abrams is the most OP tank and completely disregard every tank retired before it. Add "Tier X" in the title before "Light" and you're good.
I watched the whole video without getting dizzy. Thanks.

That's insane
Broken ? Klaus it's utterly f@#*$&d mate.
wow
There is no balance especially in latest mode THE Onslaught
I once got a direct hit on an EBR with a 240mm howitzer AP shell from my T92 HMC. It should have punched thru it and turned the EBR into a steel doughnut but instead it hit a wheel and barely slowed the EBR down.
more muppets drive the ebr instead of pros so it doesnt matter..its not really op
Absolute trash game and trash developer, goverment levels of ineptetude and money grabbing.
Manticore have no gun elevation

After 6 years of playing. The EBR made me quit lol.

I can't tell you how many games are ruined by these unrealistic wheeled vehicles. You have to wonder how any serious gamer would play one.
Wargaming idiots need to ban that fuckin tank from all garages like he was never in the game
Cause the Manticore takes real Skill.
EBR's will NEVER be balanced. They need to to be removed. PERIOD.

22,411 out of 27,930
its nice that some tanks are better that others.
Wheeled Armour Cars are and will always be a blight on WOT.
looking forward to the new sequence.
thanks claus
WG made the French light tanks fast and sneaky so they could run away from the battle as is tradition. Little did they know…

More impressive that 9 out of 10 matches took place on the same map

For some , not known reason, they don't want it nerf it. I don't get it.Really.

Is it me or is it a cliche that the tank that can run away the fastest is French , everybody knows dat …
Mange la merde !!!!
Maybe not allowing CVS for wheelies would help too

Fun fact:
AMX means:
(A)telier d'Issy-les-(M)oulineau(X) = Issy-les-Moulineaux's (small city part of Paris suburbs) Factory
.. And: for the hundred's time: tyres are Michelin's "increvable" pneumatics …not filled with air… Plain bubbled caoutchouc
Question: If you are playing tennis with a class player, are you asking him to cut his leg to be not too good?
I would pay 30 bucks a month for some sort of super premium account that would allow me to remove wheeled vehicles and artillery from my matchmaker….
That spotting assist was awesome, love the EBR
This man called himself a muppet 😂🤣 i love it
Much respect, Claus, but you limited your criteria to Tier X, making the title of this video click bait. Certainly it's a good possibility that a light tank in the other nine tiers you discarded are worthy of the title compared to the other tanks it's possible for them to face in battle. It's a little ridiculous to say (for example) that the M1 Abrams is the most OP tank and completely disregard every tank retired before it. Add "Tier X" in the title before "Light" and you're good.
I hope we're still friends. 😛
