T-29 not ageing well

feels like the T-29 isn’t as good as it was 6 or more years ago every tank at 6.7 has a round that can pen it from the front like its made out of paper and don’t get me started on the HE tank destroyers just aim in its direction and boom, centurion mk.1(6.0) legit what is armor to that thing, panthers(6.0) and the t-34-85(5.7) can pen it in the mg port/top of turret, and now all the Heat/Heatfs rounds it verses it is just a ammo rack waiting to happen even with less ammo in tank, and still you have to aim with T-29 rounds to even get a kill unless its a light tank.
Also some how can’t survive a 100kg bomb from over 10m when i personally have dropped more then 100 1000 pound bombs on an is-2’s roof and it brakes its tracks…
please fix this…

I still find it to be extremely powerful

it’s gun may be powerful but it’s a “heavy” tank and how many times have you been killed from the front of your tank like it was made of paper… specially with the is-2 having the better BR-471D round or even just the tiger 2 can pen your tank anywhere it wants with new armor pen mechanic’s since, cause atm it may as well be a TD or medium tank without the benefits of ardy or cheaper spawn cost

rarely? conventional ap/aphe needs to hit the weakspots usually and HEAT vehicles at that BR are pretty easy to deal with as most have awful soft stats. If I get uptiered I just assume the armor is unreliable (but still often works) like how you treat any heavy tank in an uptier

IS-2’s gun is worse than the T29’s gun so it’s not a great comparison

Tiger 2 still has to aim for weakspots

I find it quite enjoyable to play, the horizontal traverse and reverse speed are what save it from 6.7, also the fact that the T34 is at 6.7 already with no APHE

OP is a damn good player though, I hope I don’t see him in his T29 when I’m in a Tiger E lol

you say it like a T-29 dosn’t have to aim for weak points and deal with a longer reload then a tiger and have a huge gun barrel that everyone aims at to make the tank useless for 24 seconds + the re-reload if it gets damaged cause you know can’t load a gun if the mantle isn’t broken but the gun barrel is :/ and you also can’t say tiger has a hard time to find a weak point against the t-29 lower hull 100% gun mantle 90% of it top of turret 100% of it mg port 100% lower turret bounce shot 1000% then tiger 2 oh thats just both sides of the gun that can be fixed by glitching the game by turning left and right so your game can’t get target on the cheeks :/ and hit the barrel that dosn’t break cause of the sleeve.

no? I didn’t say that at all, T29 gun just has a faster reload than the IS-2 with enough APHE to overpressure almost anything

you’re just exaggerating how easy it is for the KT to kill the T29. That’s all, the weakspots are pretty easy to miss especially at range and you can hide them with bushes/terrain/concealment… I play both KT and T29 and they’re both excellent tanks.

and yet 1 is higher then the other cause…? you don’t make a good point and why do you have a second account liking all your comments… pretty sad tbh

Sitting in the open will generally cause you issues.

Dont stare at them while reloading.

nothing to do with sitting in the open…

so your saying give them the side of your turret to get ammo racked right…

cause the T29 is overall better to me, it makes sense

??? are you really claiming I’m liking my own comments? Dude grow up. I’ve just been talking to you and you come with this rude nonsense

If the tiger is hitting your lfp through a hill or rock, sounds like a bug.

Wiggling the turret is a good strat. Doesnt work 100% of the time but it helps a lot.

Just checked OP’s stats to see what he’s on about, he’s doing great in the T29 so I think this is just rage bait.

really cause you looked up my over all kdr from when they added the kill counts to today… good work how about you show me your win ratio mines avg 64% with leader of 79% nothing to do with how well i play it’s how bad a tank is doing compared now get off your high horse… in the last 2-3 months i’ve been playing Italy doesn’t really give you that info dose it…

??? I literally complimented you by saying you do too well to have this opinion…

Are you the same guy who claimed I had a 2nd account that I was using to like my own posts when you didnt like what I was saying? when I was saying it politely even?

Bro has a k/d of almost 4.

How high does it need to be for the t29 to be balanced?

My k/d on the sea vixen is good but you dont see me making a thread saying that it needs to go back to 8.7.

because it would be counting my time when i was playing 6+ years ago when it was 6.7 really how hard is that to compute… and i was with a decent squad that i’d play with to get scores like that… it’s like comparing super man(me) to an apple(avg player) new tanks that have been added since then are stronger and more agile like, no1 used a t92 cause it was trash now it’s bis only took 4-5 years, m56 was beast then 3-4 years it turned into a joke, mbt-70 out leagued everything now it’s a also a joke of a tank how dose showing stats for my whole carrier change anything it doesn’t…

I recently spaded the XM803 which is a lesser kpz-70, about a week ago it doesn’t seem like a joke at all
