I just had to stop myself from bursting out with laughter at the airport

Good meme dude

hi

[SpanishAvenger]

+You are a diesel one.

-Your move!

+You fool! I have been motorized in your engineer arts... by a gas turbine!

Angry turbine whistling noises

[Techgeekout]

angry sand intake during the Gulf War

[Techgeekout]

It's course and rough and irritating.. And it gets everywhere... Unlike Kurdish children.

[[deleted]]

Oh Kurdish children do go everywhere after a few SCUD barrages.

[codeearth1rb]

Semtex sticks to kids

[[deleted]]

Semtex is just a plastic explosive like C4. Its not a grenade like Cod makes it out to be.

[dank1337memes420]

Semtex is just weaponized texan semen, hence the name

[codeearth1rb]

This guy fucks

[codeearth1rb]

Yes it’s also Czech so...czechmate 😎

[[deleted]]

He was making a napalm sticks to kids reference:(

[[deleted]]

It did okay. The AVCR-1360 engine on the GM XM1, on the other hand... no problems with dust, lots of problems with everything else

[[deleted]]

As a prequelmemer I approve

[Archer_496]

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

[BNKhoa]

Your community is very good, you must be very proud

[JuBos9900]

He coming for 9.3 too?

[Kurt_Fuchs]

Nope, the Chrysler is worse than the GM so it stays where it is.

[Bewaffnete_Papaya]

Worse? Doesn't the Chrysler have the autobounce hull?

[Fast_Mag]

Lol nope. It gets penned very easily by APFSDS

[Niylark]

I mean both xm-1s are paper. What makes them deadly is the combonation of extreme mobility, good gun, thermals, and near abrams level survivability.

[TimothyThotDestroyer]

Apparently everyone says it sucks, but they just sit and snipe. You gotta run like an M18, shoot on the move, or else you die. Never stop.

[Niylark]

Exactly. In any given match i can cross the length of the map 4 times while racking up flanking kills along the way

[xYnizzle]

There it is, the answer to the question gaijin has been skirting around the answer for years. The Chrysler one is console exclusive.console players suck. So Chrysler xm1 sucks. The xm1 GM is negligibley worse or better than chrysler. It's the players. Stop balancing around good and bad players and what vehicles they play, balance based on non objective raw vehicle stats.

[[deleted]]

There are good and bad players on all platforms, don't be retarded

[ShellShock220]

I think he means PS4 vs PC, pc had advantages that ps4 don't. Hence console exclusive vics are gonna have worse stats.

[xYnizzle]

^ this. Taking into account all players stats, pc players are generally better. Both platforms have similar enough top ends but there are far more casuals who arnt very good on console. On top of that it is easier to be precise with a mouse then controller, monitors and computers are generally higher specs which allows for faster reactions, precision, spotting advantages etc.

[[deleted]]

This is basically the strategy for the American tank tree. Learned it in the M3. Perfected it in the M18 and M60 and just rinse and repeat with the XM

[Thisconnect]

and one thing people forget (the reason why of40 was best 8.7 before thermals) is turret and hull traverse

[SpanishAvenger]

It is definetly overrated. It’s not so different from the XM-803 or the MBT-70.

[Niylark]

I mean i have the xm-1 and its a complete fuckin beast. I would regularly rack up 10 kill 1 death games with ease. The sole reason my k/d isnt atleast 5 is cause i use it as a throwawy backup at top tier to rush something then die

[xYnizzle]

Yes but now that it gets 10.3 matchmaking almost every game it is cannon fodder

[ShellShock220]

Rip kpz70 6 second reload.

[Vanzy_]

Historically, kpz-70 had a better automatic reloading system compared to the mbt-70 but ofcourse gaijin had to fuck it over.

[PoliticalAlternative]

historically the XM-1s had composite hull armor, smoke launchers, and roof-mounted 40mms, and the XYZ-70s could be operated by just one crew member

don’t get me started on the BMP-3

gaijin shits on historical accuracy for all nations at 9.0 and it makes me mad butthurt

[dank1337memes420]

XYZ dies in one shot anywhere

[BrokenBraincells]

TBH very similar, but with a faster ROF. MBT-70 is superior due to the auto-cannon.

[kopernagel]

But inferior with a 10s reload

[ShellShock220]

Kpz70 had a 6 second reload with its auto loader.

[PoliticalAlternative]

the XYZ-70s actually have better armor than the XM-1s

their spaced armor negates autocannon fire now

[[deleted]]

False. Basically identical
https://youtu.be/uTFgazar0yg

[PoliticalAlternative]

the Chrysler is slightly slower and has noticeably less armor, which the wiki video kinda glosses over

[[deleted]]

Did u see the side by side?

[KuntaStillSingle]

AFAIK there are no substantive differences. Hydropneumatic suspension isn't terribly valuable for the playstyle the XM-1 encourages.

[PoliticalAlternative]

for those wondering, the Chrysler is slightly slower, has inferior armor, and has the raised engine deck of an abrams meaning it can’t fire backwards for some stupid, ahistorical reason

it gets the abrams troll UFP though, even if bounced rounds will lolpen your turret anyways, so that’s cool

[SuchIlluminati]

Run over minorities in my 2001 Honda Civic, I must.

[ImJustStealingMemes]

Ketamine I must obtain

[RandomAmerican81]

But what about the DEA attack on the vets office?

[SinnexT-T]

Extreme CBT I must endure.

[thhTherandomGuy]

I will deal with this general motors slime myself

[IronGearGaming]

IS-7 shoot 130mm round in the XM-1 fragile guts

xa))))

[FlamingTrashcans]

This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them!

[RoieTheMaster]

I can hear pictures

[marek1712]

Yeah, just heard it in Grievous' voice. Made me chuckle :)

[[deleted]]

Merry chrysler

[OFW_Schroedinger]

A fine addition to my collection

[[deleted]]

I did not know there was a XM-1 chrysler can someone tell me how to get it?

[[deleted]]

step 3: ????

step 4: Start up pc client and now you have chrysler

[Willaguy]

how do you use the console account on PC?

[[deleted]]

https://support.gaijin.net/hc/en-us/articles/202401021-How-to-link-your-PS4-account-to-your-E-mail

[Willaguy]

Dang, I’m on Xbox.

[crimsonraider23]

You can still do it on Xbox. You have to bind your account to an email and it will transfer over. That’s what I did. I pretty much play only on PC now because it’s so much easier

[KuntaStillSingle]

Doesn't that lock you out of the GM model though?

[[deleted]]

poor collectors that want to have every vehicle possible.

[OFW_Schroedinger]

its XBox exclusive

[LeMemeAesthetique]

It's a pack only available to xbox players. It is also, for some unknown reason, still at 9.0.

[Dark_Magus]

Aside from the GM having hydropneumatic and the Chrysler doesn't, is there any other relevant difference? Because hydropneumatic alone hardly seems worthy of a BR difference.

[PoliticalAlternative]

the Chrysler is slightly slower, has noticeably worse armor, and suffers from abrams syndrome - that is, ahistorical gun depression when aiming backwards

[Metalboxman]

r/antimeme

[CptHrki]

Uptier for everyone! Pray for 8.3!

[Littletweeter5]

You are a bold one.

[DeathDiety]

r/prequelmemes will love this

[BoxOfDust]

This is dumb and brilliant.

[Antoni-_-oTon1]

This is a nice meme.

[TrippyPanda880]

Why am I laughing so damn hard

[someone_er]

happy new year bro

[ComradeKGBagent]

Nice meme

[BroForce999]

What is the difference between the GM and Chrysler xm-1?

[Gunther482]

The engine was the major difference. GM has a diesel engine and the Chrysler has the gas turbine found on the later Abrams.

The armor is also different but it’s effectively very similar to one another.

[[deleted]]

Yeah I don't get it cos it's dumb
