Designing & Building the Most Destructive of Tanks - New Tank Design Game - Sprocket

well hello there everybody dre here and today we're gonna design tracked vehicles of war because we're gonna be checking out sprocket now this is a tank game like no other the idea is pretty simple you design a tank from the ground up and survive as long as you possibly can while fighting enemies whether it be attacking or being attacked depending on the scenario you choose now where this game truly shines though is in the tank designing you can customize freaking everything and i mean freaking everything and i am oh god yeah we're gonna take that the war but yeah i'm so excited to just get in here and actually try and do this right i think for the start though we should get weird but the amount like just the amount of customization is is is quite insane i mean you have to choose your powertrain your tracks of course which are obviously very fun to play with you can choose like even where your tensioner wheels are hell you can even change your sprocket designs your sprocket mounts all these other things the uh it's actually quite overwhelming with the amount of things you can do in this game so of course for the start here we're gonna make an absolutely stupid tank and uh see how long that lasts it probably won't be a long surprise surprise but yeah i just wanna design something absolutely massive so of course we're gonna go straight to the heavy gun's weight can we hold on can we please oh i can't stack them that's no fun can i put two on here or is it one per no yes so let's put one of these low profile ones down here because yeah you know what two is always better than one oh oh i hate this game now i i was gonna have a freaking tank with so many turrets on it all right so we can't do that but let's just make a huge heavy tank i don't even know what kind of mantlet i want probably this big guy right here that looks pretty fun to play with i mean you can even see your armor uh effective thickness if you played something like world of tanks you'll kind of understand how angling armor is important generally if the armor is more angled you have a higher chance of ricocheting and the effective thickness of said armor is going to be thicker because if you think about it if a piece of metal is bent you have to go through more of it than if it was straight so this armor where i i'm i'm putting the mouse right now has effective thickness of 234 meters where the actual piece of metal is only 150 millimeters thick so basically you want to angle your arm is that a barrel or are you just happy to see me imagine if i just had this gun on hiss oh that'd be so freaking stupid wait could i just make it thick we're gonna up the caliber of that to a boom tube there we go you know what no i actually do want to see if we can do this right um so we have internal space here we're obviously way over the internal space right now because our caliber's so high but i think once i expand out the turret size we should be able to get more internal space right now we wouldn't be able to play because we're using 6.10 i don't know if that's meters or whatever it is of space where we only have 4.52 so essentially we just need to make a tank bigger to uh deal with the size of this cannon all right but we're going to extend that barrel make it nice and big i don't know i mean you don't really want too big because then i'm assuming the reload time is going to be longer oh yeah you can actually see your base reload time here oh the details um i'm assuming it's the caliber going to yes obviously a smaller gun is quicker to reload so let's let's maybe go a decent size we probably don't need to go crazy though i doubt there's going to be many hard tanks for one of the first scenarios let's do something like that and we'll up the shell length to 0.5 meters you can even change the starting thickness let's have a thick boy at the start there we go that looks exciting i'm also going to add more length just to increase velocity that's going to make it easier to aim let's go back to the base though i want to do the gun just because guns are fun but we should probably you know work on a turret that can handle this beast so we're just going to oh no dude okay i'm gonna have to move the turret all right we're gonna up those cheeks a little bit so it doesn't look so weird it looks pretty weird let's be honest here but it's my first tank design we've angled it quite a bit okay we haven't angled it enough clearly it's still got pretty low thickness okay there we go it's a little confused because the armor wasn't doing very well because you can change the thickness so we want obviously the front to be a thick boy all right so i'm happy with that armor now let's design the hull because we haven't touched that at all first of all let's make these tracks a little bit bigger so yeah we're going to go to mobility first actually we're going to up the powertrain so we can either do a clutch breaking or twin transmission i'm gonna keep twin on um oh wow we can even change like suspension freaking oh my god this is this is gonna take me forever just design one tank i love it though oh yeah look at that all right so we want to keep this kind of low to the ground it's already a big target we don't want to make it bigger but i'm assuming we want a little bit of suspension so we don't you know bounce around like crazy i can throw some spare tracks on here i wonder if it works as armor because often that was the case um we'll throw some on the back obviously we want to expand this out a bit i don't i i don't want a crazy design i want something that will hopefully actually work so there we go that looks good i'll change those to those i just like those better you can change everything though this is so cool i'm just having fun designing a tank now suspension oh you can change total suspension designs i don't know enough about suspension to be playing with this let's just keep it with that one all right and i think that's good we still need driver support and gunner site to work we still gotta very much design the crew let's up the engine here we're gonna go for a heavy engine it's still gonna be slow yeah as you can see we definitely don't want light engines uh we can even go advanced here oh my god number of cylinders up it ah that's the max we can do you can customize the rpm you can even up to up the idle if you want jesus you can change the gearing you can add more gears if you want we'll keep it with the suggested i don't know if i want to get this deep into this game but that's actually insane okay so now we gotta choose where our crew goes so commander can go in the turret i think we can make him the radio operator as well i don't know if we need a radio operator for this job but we probably should have one so we have a loader we have a gunner and we have a driver can we do two loaders sometimes it makes sense to um do two loaders i love how he's a passenger at the start i would like him to be a loader as well oh you can only have one loader big tanks often have two loaders so that's kind of lame put a commander coppola on the top of this not really a smart design for a coppola but we'll throw it right there all right we got a viewport port for the gunner i'm assuming that's to aim down sight so we're going to throw that i guess right here and then the driver's in the hull so we'll put him right in the middle at the bottom i'm assuming we need an antenna for a radio system so we'll throw that in the back where it's hidden through hatch at the bottom here you can kind of see the scale of this thing now with the crew hatch i don't think we'll be fighting in the dark but just in case we'll throw some headlights on it i don't think we need brake lights logs are always smart these were used to go over uh like ditches and whatnot and it's also added armor so well at least in real life i don't know about in this game we can also throw a gun at the commander's hatch just in case i don't know if i can use it but i hope i can alright is that everything of course we gotta just camo it up well watch this thing be a total failure but it's so big and stupid let's try it out it's way too big like we have so much extra space that's just added tonnage design must be under 40 tons for this mission uh we're 43. okay so i guess we got to redesign our space a little bit and we are just within range that's perfect the turret's bigger than the actual hull but it's gonna be so fun to use okay uh design must be for oh damn it i must have made it a little bit bigger okay hold on we'll just get rid of that a little bit does it work it freaking works it is the stupidest looking tank i've ever seen i can't even rotate it i'm being shot right now i should probably focus oh my god it doesn't it hardly moves it doesn't go up what did i do wrong all right come right into my crosshair i don't know why the gun depression isn't working please come here i can hardly move this was not a good design yes come on come on ah just why are you so tall there we go goodbye bennett so yeah not the smartest tank design you generally don't want to just max out your turret size and it's so heavy i can't even turn it i actually can't turn it it's a good thing my turret turns pretty fast i put a lot of torque into that because without that would be screwed i'm still reloading by the way thanks for stopping you definitely would have killed me if you kept going um getting hit by the side now this was a really bad tank design i think we gotta go for like a light speedy tank or at least like a medium design i'm actually stuck in the ground now i don't know if it's because it's so heavy or what that i mean i got two tanks but that was not optimal all right so we're gonna go for a light tank design can you see the difference that's going to hopefully help out a lot i'm going to keep it nice and light and hopefully speedy so we just want crazy angles on this thing that's looking good much better i gotta learn how to angle this are these these yes there we go okay i just want a little bit of an angle with that nothing too much keeping a nice low profile much better looking tank so far up that frontal armor again we want to make sure that's nice and safe all right so we have a baser load time of 2.5 seconds now i upped the caliber just a little bit this is way better i what was the reload last time like 10 seconds at least we're still a little bit heavy mostly because of the crew so we're gonna have to up this turret a little bit just to fix fit everything in there it's 81 of the crew i wonder what crew do we have in there if i can move a crew to the hall that would obviously be good commanders in the turret if i throw them in the hall we now now the hull's having issues but that should be way better and then i can customize this turret a little bit more because i want the turret small the smaller it is i'm assuming the faster it rotates and that's obviously important because the front looks good but the back is not the best so we're gonna up those cheeks a little bit because we have room now and we're going to angle the hell out of that because it has no angle right now just because we have the space to do so that way hopefully we bounce a lot more now we need to angle the sides as well because we can so there we go something like that that at least has more angles and we're gonna have to have unfortunately a little bit of a bigger hole we dropped the field down that's gonna help out a little bit i don't know how much fuel i'm gonna need hopefully i don't run out because that would be annoying oh interesting what was that that i just pulled okay so the bottom i guess i had the bottom really thin so i didn't have to actually change much at all i think this is good we're maxing out once again pretty much except this time it's only 16 tons let's see if we can whoa why the hell missing component gunner's site oh yeah you know what we should probably return why was that there was that a glitch wait can i put spawn in two oh so if i keep my tank light it it ups it because you gotta remember it was 40 tons so it allows me to have another tank that's insane okay so this is probably gonna go a hell of a lot better okay but we still need the driver's sport and the gunner site and then we're the good all right not the best place for a gunner's site we're gonna see a lot of our turret but that's okay i don't think we're gonna need to see too well all right aside from that i think we're good we don't need to worry about anything else let's just get out there and see how we can oh yeah it's so much better i can actually rotate it this time and we can see the tanks coming in it's actually speedy as well oh this is actually is this a decent tank all right hopefully the armor can withstand the attacks why can't i shoot what what what did i do wrong why can't i shoot return to the designer what am i doing wrong is it because i put the loader in the hall is it really going to allow me to put the loader in a hull when i can't reload the gun in the freaking turret that's got to be it i just want to see is this is this it yes i'm reloading now that was actually it why would you let me put it in the hall if you can't be in there all right team come on bro let's do it oh this actually feels good we got bullet drop just missed him thank god the reload time's insane this guy's doing way more than me this is great he's already killed three what what is he looking at oh god there's a tank beside us oh i don't want to be hit by the side take him out take him out how am i so bad teammate help me there we go i'm helping uh this guy's faster at me at spotting them it's almost like the commander in the hall's a bad idea because they can't freaking see this is so cool though i didn't know that if you keep the tank light you just get more tanks on your team did we do it i thought there'd be like a congratulations you win but no we i i guess we did it i hope i can save this tank design because this is much better than my big one all right so that went honestly a little too well so that was ambushed let's try um railway sounds fun so the tank worked out last time let's just use it again win the battle okay it's looking like i have more space now for whatever reason so we're just gonna i think the best thing would be to up our firepower a little bit i feel like there's gonna be harder enemies actually let's just look at our armor okay armor's now green everywhere that's scary so what before that let's just up our armor a little bit actually and add a little bit more armor to the gun mount as well and let's up the caliber of that gun a little bit i don't want to go too crazy because then the reload times get insane all right that i think that should be good it's not perfect but hey it should be a lot better i don't even know what i'm supposed to do i got a team of four this time though and i forgot to get the commander's coppola but that's okay i i mean he's just gonna stay in the tank i guess oh this thing is so fast this feels like a very nimble tank i love this design i'm so happy i made it looks like we got an enemy way in the distance over there i thought i saw something maybe i'm insane nope there he is there is something in the distance shooting at us not much cover here this has got to be the worst map design i've ever seen i mean can we have a freaking tree maybe oh a little bit high a little bit high zoom in got him oh i'm not petting though not petting this tank oh yeah okay you know what we got to get a side profile here we like track him i'm not even sure oh did you see that ricochet wow you know what the visuals are not the best but that was actually cool so we need either higher caliber or we need to get to the sides of them all right maybe we just need a little bit of a different tank design one i can't believe how fast this is okay long reload time that's because we have essentially a ship cannon on this can i even lift this okay i can't i can actually lift it yeah you're not getting through that armor i maxed this thing out oh it's gonna take a while to learn how to aim this thing though 20 second reload i'm just gonna let them come to me oh i feel like a walking fortress they're getting a little close though if they do get behind me i have no armor did i kill it oh i didn't didn't account for um bullet drop i guess we're gonna have to start backing up no no no no no oh hi there how's it going this was a bad tank design okay maybe making something so tall was not the best idea so i got a teammate looks like he's pretty far away still have an extremely high powered gun on this but i think this should do enough to uh actually take these guys down alright i see one coming over the distance here the thing with this map is you can't really hide anywhere so you just gotta focus on sheer armor there's a guy yeah i see him right over there oh did i i don't know if i bounced off him or the railroad track all right you know what we have lots of guys coming this way let's keep my armor pointed towards them there we go i feel like i'm actually holding out now oh you're so lucky all right come on there we go finally i can at least penetrate these jerks and they can't seem to do well on me so as long as they don't get behind me i'm okay oh this is so cool done all right next one and how did that go underneath it must have oh you're you are so lucky we did it we okay i must have actually got him so he must have got the final guy on my side okay that feels good with this massive beast well it's nice to see some weird tank designs do indeed work and on that guys we're gonna wrap up this episode of sprocket here i just wanted to quickly show you guys this one because i think it is so damn cool i don't know any other game where you can customize every angle of a tank and it actually reflect how the armor works in the game so yeah i had a lot of fun with it if you want to see more of it let me know in the comments below and yeah as always guys thanks for watching and liking i'll see you in the next one [Music] you
