You are absolutely wrong. 12 vs 15 seconds is life and death in city brawling.
Thank you for this detailed reasoning.
The reload time increase is an absolute joke…
T29 '“overperforms” because good players are using it.

He isn’t massively overreacting, this is just further proof that their idiotic statistics based ratings are garbage, the T29 did not deserve a reload rate nerf considering it’s basically a worse Tiger 2 105 and was always the Tiger 2 H equivalent, it was never worthy of being above it let alone should it have ever been considered for 7.3.

It is not and never was.
T29 was always better than Tiger II H and could be named a Tiger 2 105 equivalent, again T29 was much better.

It wasn’t better, it was a direct equivalent trading reload speed and velocity for better damage, having slightly better mobility and turret armor while having VASTLY worse hull armor - tell me, what major advantages did the T29 have to be a higher BR? (rhetorical, you don’t have to answer because you won’t find any). T34 is even worse in this regard as it had an even worse reload with vastly worse damage.

It already isn’t overperforming, they are just nerfing something for no reason, further, something people paid real money for.

For most players who might forget that tiger2 105 has a semi-automatic loader, which was recorded in old warthunder wiki
Bruh.
doesnt seem real
But Gaijin said
I also love how “rare” the Tiger 2 105 and Panther II supposedly are, yet I’m pretty sure if I started counting how many of them I see per match, its at least one of them every other match when I play from 6.7 to 7.7. Like I just died to one in my T29 that shot me straight through my turret cheek. Instead of ricocheting, it went through the first layer of the mantlet and the round fuzed and overpressured my turret, blowing up my ammo. Like, no joke I see more of them when I play 7.0 than I see the Maus at 7.7, its wild. I’ve seen teams with 3 or 4 Panther II’s all at once.
Seriously, with how common these two tanks already are, why not just nerf the “unrealistic” aspects of them and make them available for research around the anniversary like the Maus? Its a win-win for everyone. People who like them being exclusive still have a limit on who has it, and people who want it have a non-zero chance. On top of this, non-Germany players also win because they’d be more balanced once made a little more realistic.
But yeah, it actually hurts my soul to know that if I had played the game like 8 months sooner than I did I could have them, but now there’s literally zero chance of getting them. Like its crazy to think that I have a higher chance of getting the IS-7, Surblinde, or Object 279 than to get something as basic as a Tiger 2 with a 105 cannon, or a Panther that actually has a functioning reverse gear lol

There are so many solutions. Make them available on anniversaries. Or only available to people who have completely researched the German ground tree. Or give people who get to level 150 of a battle pass the chance to trade in the coupon upgrades in exchange for a vehicle that’s otherwise completely inaccessible (not just limited to the three German vehicles). Or hell, sell an “Ancestor Pack” on the store that has the three removed vehicles.
The only thing lacking is the will to do it.
It may be pure copium but I think they’ll come back one day. Just not for many many years.

Just like the IS-7, Surblinde, and Object 279, they could put them in Silver Lion packs as well. Possibilities are endless. I’ve even seen people say if they put all of the removed German vehicles into a paid bundle for a limited time they’d buy it

God knows I would.
I am just gonna drop this here:
move it to 7.7 if the T29 is 7.0
better mobility, better gun, faster reload, better armor

how is a tank with twice the reload time better at 0.3 higher br?
(armor ,mobility and gun handling is very similar, tiger II has much better hull armor)
Guess you are falling into the bullshit of a tank is as good as the stats players make for it.
How is it sane that after 9 years they decide to completely destroy the T29 capability to hold its own against multiple enemies in close quarter combat?
How does it make sense that the 12 second reload was okay for 9 YEARS???
And now suddenly gaijin says, lets fuck over everyone who bought it.

And T29 has much better turrent armor not to mention 12.7mm that allow it to destroy lightly armored vehicles and planes.
Lmao
19.4s reload is still not as long as other heavies, like IS-3.
Or maybe because trolls like to go around and abuse flagging on forum?
You can see my profile in WT if You want to see how I play with both vehicles.
Edit: Or are we talking about Tiger II H? Because if that is the reason then if You belive that it is better than T29 then ye… nothing can help You. (I thought about Tiger II 105 as You have posted a video of it)
When it comes to Tiger II H, You have much more firepower in terms of explosive mass, again 12.7mm, better armor and mobility.
