Killing the worst tier 8 tank in the game is apparently amazing now, rofl. It's not like the KV-5 can totally damage the VK45 anywhere without aiming, right?

don't kidding me... Chaffee... When I got my Orlik medal (Kill 3 enemy tanks, those are 2 tiers higer than you, with a light tank) I got 1830 xp with NO PREMIUM account... I was sooooo suprised, cas I have neer seen 1830 xp with standard account, so for me It's not surprising, that Chaffee won :) Good Job anyway ;)

My thoughts exactly..The chaffee instead of scouting, sniping in town?(i would like to see how he dmg the type without gold :Smile_harp:  )
Then goes around doing dmg in targets that dont bother about him( exept maybe the tiger which is either with dmged module or with dmged brain)
VKa defeating kv5(gj although as mentioned before is the easiest heavy t8) then randomly sniping half dead targets?W8ting for others to bring them down to the last shot.
Maybe these guys did much better but the video you made shows me just that.

Chaotic mix of multiple replays. No info about battle. Strange camera angles. Makers of this video, please learn from your Russian colleges.

Uhm.. Chaffe has best dpm in the game.. why only use it to scout?
Its a waste if a chaffe does not shoot, at least on a map like this where the team needs no scout at all.

And M24 Pens Typ without Problems with normal AP Ammo...
Oh i have my max XP on Caffee ;) (2806XP)

Chaffe doesn't have the best dpm in the game in general, but out of light tanks.

example (damage per minute):
Chaffee:2118
SU-152: 3151

Anyway it's still hard to compare it with automatic loaders which has better dmg burst.

Anyway I'm a fan of light tanks including chaffee and i know it's not a suicidal scout or only for spotting, but anyway going to the city into a spot, where you don't have safe escape root isn't smart. Most heavy tanks will 2-shot you before you get away. Also, city has narrow corridors, so unless enemy is turning his turret, you can't penetrate him frontally(unless you have the time or possibility to shoot some weakspots). And you can't go around him, because his colleagues will kill you. That's why people here are saying here that it wasn't a good choice to go city. He actually started being useful when driving as a fast med on the east side of the map.

I agree with you. Btw there were so funny replays in there. Also it occured to me how much work it is required to watch all those replays every week and make a video. And it's paying off. Cuz it's another motivation for players to be working hard to make something extraordinary. Because if you will, you can be in taken in the next video. If only eu community management would be almost as good as ru.

Well, they pay gold as well. 1000-3000. So, not only getting in youtube drives them to play.

I have a feeling some rude text was exchanged when that Is-4 was killed by a tier 5 tank :Smile-hiding:

Anyways nice video :D

Did i ever say chaffee shouldn't shoot? eFse7en's reply covers me, no need to add something more.

Could not agree more. The cuts were too short, impossible to follow what was going on. Sorry to say this, but very badly directed video.
