Total BS nerfing the t29. Almost 2 second longer reload and a longer aim time is way to much. It's one of the original tanks in the game and with all the new tanks having high armor and reloaders etc it needed some advantages. Now it's just slow. Slow aim time, long reload and slow moving. Not cool WG.
All the recent nerfs were totally stupid and unnecessary when you think of the premium tanks in the game most people are playing why in the world would they be nerfing tech tree tanks. It really only hits free to play players hardest.
WG really love to nerf low tier tanks even if they're totally not op. For example: elc bis, M41 bulldog, hellcat, tier 6 and 7 ebrs, yet those totally op tanks take them years to nerf it...
Because they're looking at the winrate. If something is standing out, they nerf the f out of it. All the statpadders raise the winrate and then this happens. BS
Hey well at least they did it. They finally nerfed T67 and M44 this patch, both of which dominated at their tiers. T67's nerf wasn't enough to do much though
@@justabingbong For you but it's mid tier as it sees tier 9. It's also a tank based on a real tank, unlike many in the game especially in the upper tiers.
Why did WG change this tank? Simple, too many “Free to play” players like myself could play this tank at tier 7 and hold their own against tier 8 tanks, you could even be a PITA to the tier 8 power creeped Premium HTs. I’ll bet their data showed too many FTP guys enjoyed it, and lots of tier 8 Pay To Win noobs complained about it… As a FTP player I guess I’m getting what I pay for LOL
this feels just like when the italian meds got nerfed. Literally no one asked for it, sure the tank was good, but far from being broken, and now it's so bad in comparison to it's big brother T32. When not too long ago it was completely the other way around. Can't we have both tanks be decent, or is that too much to ask?
@@Aubital t29 has a tier 7 TD gun in a very good platform. Tiger has a strong gun in a shitty platform. you can still go hulldown and juck the lower tiers and fight against tier 8s easily as we saw in this vid. i see o problem in balancing op tanks. if they nerfed the pen or mobility i would be more upset personally. balance is important imo
@@M4xXxIkInG it was fine before. Again, compare how it stacks up against T32, they used to be similar, now the T32 is leaps and bounds ahead. The balance of the two vehicles is very strange to me now
@@Aubital I don't get your point it's like IS vs IS3, tiger p vs VK 100 and so on T8 will always be better than T7. T29 is still better than lot of T7 tier to tier to their T8 counterpart.
i would say currently the highlight of the american heavies tech tree line is the T32 it feels amazing and the gun is so stable that it almost feels like an strv td when you move or turn. Not that accurate, but the bloom barely changes
It was my favorite tank of all my tanks, back in a day when there was chat for both teams i had battle on Erlenberg when I holded the whole flank alone, one hull down T29 vs dying half of enemy team and someone from enemy team wrote "KILL THE FUC.. T29!" I need to frame that phrase :D
WELL WHEN I FIRST started got me that new t80 tier 4 and next thing your getting 1 shot by that dam t29 that day it did feel op god it used to be a three tier mm and that same t29 that 1 shot my tier 4 in his next game could have got 1 shot by a tier 10
I think the tank is still epic but with the 90mm gun. 2500 base dpm at tier 7 is crazy - it's more like tier 9 levels. 105mm though is done, probably good only for ppl who wish to grind through T29 line and sell if afterwards.
The T-29 already had the lowest DPM of any tier 7 heavy, now it's really a slug. The changes to the M103 were really a nerf though sold as a buff--I just sold it, it's not worth finishing the grind even though top gun and engine were unlocked. Not going to bother with the E5 as that sucks by all accounts. Might buy the T32 as that is the only tank of the line that was truly buffed and drop the M-103 crew in it, or just put them in the T-29 and throw bounty or bond equipment in to see if it helps. While it seemed like a good update at first, overall some pretty discouraging changes, the Italian TDs and T-29 worst of all. I've ended up playing more arty than usual and focusing on the Italian TDs.
I went all the way up to the E5 just before they nerfed it, the M103 never worked for me. After a while I sold both the E5 and M103 and just played the T29. Looks like I’ll be buying the T32 again, I have a good crew for it.
@@artm1973 really?! I'm not the best WOT player, but i marked it, and it was a joy to do it. Even in tier 9 games. Trust me, it was the best heavy tier for tier, in the game.
DPM means nothing when the gun won't hit anything anyway. T29 can still do what it always was doing. Sat hulldown (if able to get position before destroyed) and wait enemy to flank it.
I just got me the American Vehicles and was happy with stock T29 and the free T71DA. That hurt alot that one day finding P44 Pantera in garage with rammer removed.
Did they also drop the pen, why would you need more gold now? I thought they nerfed the gun handling but not the pen. They buffed the toxic 90mm used in tournaments and by P2W players but nerfed the 105 because regular players use it and can do well with it. I suspect now many people will never finish the grind through the T-29 to the tier 8s and above.
Yep. Basically any non premium tank that does well is nerfed or made only competitive with gold ammo. They nerfed HE but not HEAT. For what reason other than $
The bad gum handling makes hitting weakspots (where I suppose that everyone aims) less reliable. Using gold makes those weakspots bigger, allowing you to compensate the handling and accuracy
Of course the classic tanks had to get nerfed so you’d have to press the 2 key to try to pin +2 mm heavies. Good luck since you need about 260 pen to reliably pen their weak spots
I'm grinding it at the moment, and haven't used gold once, haven't come up against anything that normal ammo can't take care of, including the vipera. It's more of a accuracy issue, as it will take a few shots to hit the spot sometimes
That tank gave me hell with missing fully aimed shots. If they changed RNG for it, it is worth aiming longer BUT HIT TARGET instead missing... I've started playing it with 90mm long time ago, so at least can shoot multiple times (and missing less)
I created new account and came to Wot to play mostly T29. Those nerfs are to much. Nerf to aim time and DPM was brutal enough then they make it even more sluggish. T29 was always strong but only in obvious situation, open field or puch for punch it often lose having low DPM. Tank was perfectly balanced. Big fat middle finger WG 😑
I used to view the old T29 like the old T57 when it was top dog, I loved playing them but I didn't play them much, felt a bit like cheating. My WR in them is way above my average WR, if you know how to play them and what not to do, they were just head and shoulders above everything else at tier.
Back in 2014 when I started out and joined a clan, it was in my early grinding days and was advised to get to the T29 because it was a good tank and wouldn't regret it. So eventually got it and this was when I think the 'ears' were still part of the hit box, so a target for the enemies to shot them. They they took its 'ear' out of the hit box and then the turred changed completely.It was always my favourite to use in TB's and even won 'The King of the hill'.......once...😀 The onwards to the T32 (not as good except smaller profile), T34 on to the M103 and stopped at the T110E5. Also went tup the German HT's and Russian HT's plus TD's, then 2016 became bored with the introduction of new HT's like the Chrysler K and KF, Anyway now it seems the T20 has been neutered a bit so perhaps nut as fun as it used to be....
WG is just doing what it always does: removing fun and encouraging more gold spam. It's amazing how they screw you over left, right, and center, and people are still giving them money.
90 mm full gold all the way, even before 105 nerfs. Faster reload makes up lower alpha - also funny when people try to rush you thinking you have the big gun but find their HP disappears.
The armor is t29 bigest advantage but the 105mm gun was the second best thing. It has the alpha to trade against many of the other tanks. It has the penetration that is good enough to not spam full gold even in tier 9 games. It had acceptable dpm and gunhandling. I just want to drop it here that i have about 12000 games played over 6 years or so and just over 1000 games in t29 and another 1000 in a kv2. Witch of my favourite tanks will be next to have their balls cut.
they also nerfed the Skoda T25, the Crusader got nerfed by being moved 1 tier up, I guess they want to nerf all the fun/competetive tech tree tanks that are still left (wonder when they decide to shit on the Cromwell)
Tier for tier it was the best tank in the game for me and my play style. I had a 59% win rate in it with over 600 battles. I won’t allow it the disgrace of subjecting it to failure. I will retire it and allow it to maintain its grace. So many new tanks in the game, the T29 needed the stats it had in order to remain relevant. 75% of my matches in this tank were T8 matches. This tank didn’t need nerfing. If it was a Russian tank, they would have left it alone. The American tanks have few heavy tanks that are competitive. Thanks WG. Another reason to leave the game.
T29 turret was already quite OP in tier 7 and they fucked it up again. Anything with around 210 pen can go through the cheek, and the commander hatch was also a weak spot. Nowadays good luck even with tier 10 tanks.
Hy Skills, thx for VDO. Today i cry T29 has been washed with a too strong soap. This super tier has became the sadow of is self. Sad very sad. Greatings.
1 year later and I have to giggle about all those crying about the nerf. It's still a very nice tank and I play with the 105. Works all fine for me. "Adapt or perish", that easy bro
It's not playable now. Plying it while it is frustrating? Why? What for? Smaller peepee is playable only with gold only, so - killed for next few updates until they buff it again. This is what they do - they never balance, they throw tanks in extreme changes.
Why nerf low tiers tanks like this if most matches are again tier +2?, at least 1of 3. Is absurd. They messed this tank up, they went too far with the nerf and now it's not fun to play. Ahhhhh yes, but it spends more premium ammo to work, which is what matters to get our money. One more step on the way to making the game unplayable and having to uninstall it.
Tier 7 used to be one of the best tiers to play for casual players. My guess is that wargaming is trying to make tier 7 less fun and force more players to tier 8 and above.
Why do you think so, because they nerf overperforming tank. Like, it wasn't enjoyable when you face T29 with IS or Tiger p. I think less of them in MM is healthy for T7.
@@shibito5442 i think so because that is the kind of thing that wargaming always does. everybody knows you have to spend more credits to be competitive at tier 8 and wargaming is constantly introducing credit drains.
@@USSWISCONSIN64 I think it's the only nerf it needs, I mean I can sit hull down infront of any tier 7 heavy with little fear, even tier 8 find it hard to pen, I would of made the cuploa a bit bigger and nerfed view range a little.
tank is still op. I played today made easy 2.8k in 2 games and marked the tank in 115 games. Its strong even against t9 tanks in certain situations. Nerf was not needed but it is what it is.
I had just unlocked the M6 when the changes happened. While the M6 became a tank that was no longer a 'grind', the T29 hasn't been that way. Once you could hold your own against higher tiers, and have more good games than bad, but now, it's just average. Still great when hull down, with all those tier 8"s shooting gold at you, and it does nothing, it just takes longer to reply to them. I hope the good things I've heard about the T32 are true...
A Tier VII which could outmatch most of the VIIIs. Now after 10 years they (wargaming/wot-devs) figured it's too strong. cudos. Looks like warging starts to regret their live decisions 😂 We'll see how far that goes. Maybe be they even relocate the EU server back to Germany. I'm dreaming.
This tank is friggin food for arty. Aim speed is non-existent. Turret armor is a joke vs. Tier VIII. And it's sloooooooooow. Completely butchered and unplayable.
This is bullshit. Why WG would nerf "Iconic" tanks. These are the tanks that changed history of tanks. Yet we get super prototype OP tanks that IRL SUCKED!
I find it comical that players have been crying about hull down meta for a couple years at this point aka chief, kran, and even now with minotauro. Yet now when the best tier 7 heavy is being nerfed, suddenly WG is the bad guy for listening to complaints about tanks with no weak spots when hull down.
absolutely t29 is shit now. The gun accuracy is meh before but after the nerf is even shittier. Aim time sucks.now. Turns like frwaking battleship more. I had a game that i need to do trades but enemy snap shotted me everytime. He high rolled me extra, i miss 3 times and I low rolled of 230 damage the damage of in 105mm gun. Better to sell this old tank now
This was WoT way to make T29 premium tank - Nerf the shit out of the TOP gun and let people spam APCR using M3 gun. -------------- Absolutely disgusting WARGAMING! After playing 1.18 for a while there's not much good about this update apart the maps. I'm loosing interest playing this game for every update and I consider myself a new player so no wonder why veteran players are complaining... WG has done nothing, NOTHING to nerf the REAL OP tanks from tier 3 all the way up to tier 10! Is this what WG wants? WoT is getting boring......................
but: how often you are in a T7 or lower battle? 90% +2 MM, and nearly any T9 and many T8 pen. the Tower like its paper. it´s a nice tank, but bevor 1.18 you could push but now its a drive to a pos. stand, wait and hope. my opinion and not my playstyle for this tank
Putin: nerf American tanks. America: we don't play wot, zero Fs. I mean come on let's face it wot is a scam and you can't scam a scammer Americans invented scamming right now we are scamming the entire world
T29 nerf is why i stopped playing this gamr, came backin 2024 and wot is in a death spiral, and russia expects us to believ them about anytjign else......

Reasons are very clear.
Make the tank more attractive for gold spammers and less enjoyable for casual players.
Money, money, money.
Baboonish dance in a WoT video is like the dance at Matrix reloaded or at Pulp fiction. It is not crucial, but it is very funny.

WG is just doing what it always does: removing fun and encouraging more gold spam. It's amazing how they screw you over left, right, and center, and people are still giving them money.
Exactly my analysis.
Want DPM?
Spend gold ammo.
90 mm full gold all the way, even before 105 nerfs. Faster reload makes up lower alpha - also funny when people try to rush you thinking you have the big gun but find their HP disappears.

only if top tier. 99% tier 9 battles i gues.
My issue is that now you are funneled into the gold spam gun to be competitive. Great
I deleted my T-29. They should have left ALL tech tree tanks as they were.
Skill Is it still Epic?
This is the first UA-cam video with the new map. Am I right
Look how they masscacred my son
Wait they Nerf t29 4 what?
Armor nerf to the turret and remove the tracks on the frontal hull makes more sense than ruining the gun on it.:/
Exactly what they should of done.
@@zGJungle As a long time fan of the T29/30/34. armor nerf to the turret of the T29 makes sense as it's tier 7. anything else?
@@USSWISCONSIN64 I think it's the only nerf it needs, I mean I can sit hull down infront of any tier 7 heavy with little fear, even tier 8 find it hard to pen, I would of made the cuploa a bit bigger and nerfed view range a little.
tank is still op. I played today made easy 2.8k in 2 games and marked the tank in 115 games. Its strong even against t9 tanks in certain situations. Nerf was not needed but it is what it is.

T29 requiescat in pace 2022 goodbye
I had just unlocked the M6 when the changes happened. While the M6 became a tank that was no longer a 'grind', the T29 hasn't been that way. Once you could hold your own against higher tiers, and have more good games than bad, but now, it's just average. Still great when hull down, with all those tier 8"s shooting gold at you, and it does nothing, it just takes longer to reply to them. I hope the good things I've heard about the T32 are true...
Even if the T32 is good now the M103 and E5 both suck. I'd say don't bother with the line at all.
They are true, i sold the T32 years ago. after they nerfed my T29 I repurchased it and its a dream....
A Tier VII which could outmatch most of the VIIIs. Now after 10 years they (wargaming/wot-devs) figured it's too strong. cudos.
Looks like warging starts to regret their live decisions 😂
We'll see how far that goes.
Maybe be they even relocate the EU server back to Germany. I'm dreaming.
It's all about forcing players into higher tier play. Same old maps
This tank is friggin food for arty. Aim speed is non-existent. Turret armor is a joke vs. Tier VIII. And it's sloooooooooow. Completely butchered and unplayable.
7tie, T29 OP
👍
they had 2 nerf it cus its a free 2 play tank which is played by alot of people.
simpe as that.
Pls make a video also on French tier 5 heavy bdr. Wg nerf it
This is bullshit. Why WG would nerf "Iconic" tanks. These are the tanks that changed history of tanks. Yet we get super prototype OP tanks that IRL SUCKED!
What did the do to me T29 😭😭😭
Wargaming loves tho destroy players Dreams t29 and why they nerve emil2 and kran (becouse all tanks have the positivs and negatifs)
I find it comical that players have been crying about hull down meta for a couple years at this point aka chief, kran, and even now with minotauro. Yet now when the best tier 7 heavy is being nerfed, suddenly WG is the bad guy for listening to complaints about tanks with no weak spots when hull down.
absolutely t29 is shit now. The gun accuracy is meh before but after the nerf is even shittier. Aim time sucks.now. Turns like frwaking battleship more. I had a game that i need to do trades but enemy snap shotted me everytime. He high rolled me extra, i miss 3 times and I low rolled of 230 damage the damage of in 105mm gun. Better to sell this old tank now
This was WoT way to make T29 premium tank - Nerf the shit out of the TOP gun and let people spam APCR using M3 gun.
-------------- Absolutely disgusting WARGAMING!
After playing 1.18 for a while there's not much good about this update apart the maps. I'm loosing interest playing this game for every update and I consider myself a new player so no wonder why veteran players are complaining... WG has done nothing, NOTHING to nerf the REAL OP tanks from tier 3 all the way up to tier 10! Is this what WG wants? WoT is getting boring......................
I tried T29 after nerf, and it still works, it's still a very powerful tank with 105mm gun. It was OP for tier VII. Saludos!
but: how often you are in a T7 or lower battle?
90% +2 MM, and nearly any T9 and many T8 pen. the Tower like its paper.
it´s a nice tank, but bevor 1.18 you could push but now its a drive to a pos. stand, wait and hope.
my opinion and not my playstyle for this tank
@@Gollog99 with t29 you can bully those poor tier 9s 👍👍
Remember only 5% of all ammo fired it gold ammo 😂😂😂
Putin: nerf American tanks. America: we don't play wot, zero Fs. I mean come on let's face it wot is a scam and you can't scam a scammer Americans invented scamming right now we are scamming the entire world
ggs
T29 has been trash for along time. The nerf just made it worse. Its too old school because it has weak points.
T29 nerf is why i stopped playing this gamr, came backin 2024 and wot is in a death spiral, and russia expects us to believ them about anytjign else......
Time to sell mi T29 😥😥
typical wargaming, piss off players and make customers leave the game.....They always hate players!
