"Same BR as an IS-6, not sure how that happened." We ALL know how that happened Bawz. It's the same story for EVERY good vehicle. People play it, realize it's good. Some Russian/German/American main cries their way onto the forums. More people play it, realize it IS actually good. Gaijin sees tons of people are playing a good vehicle and raise it's BR because fun is not allowed.
The T29/Skyshark combo is one of my favorite duos in the entire game. Both helped me massively for grinding when I got them about a year and a half ago. One of the first tanks and planes I had a fantastic time in as a newer player. The Skyshark alone helped me master energy retention when doing CAS with how it flies.
Protip: If you see a T29. T30 or T34 - don't aim at the side of the turret unless you're using HESH or HEAT. Thing bounces like crazy for some reason. Took me 4 shots from the long 8.8 before it went through one time.
Long 88 can just pen the front of the turret,mg port and lower front plate Only thing that will go through the side of it's turret is heatfs or decent grade dart
They only gave the T34 and T29 half their irl armor on the front plate. You can literally shoot this thing anywhere that isn’t the gun mantlet and punch a hole straight through it (edit: provided you’re using something larger than a 75 of course), and even then because it only has 60% of its irl armor on the turret cheeks you can punch straight through those too with a half decent shot.
probably my favorite looking tank, when I starded playing this and the T34 gave me nightmares whenever I saw them because how armored they look, I just panicked and shot anywhere:)

I bought this thing to shotgun through Rank IV. I hated it at first until I finally figured out how to use it (knowing weakspots helps too). It's a fantastic tank, just has a big head lol
Hi Oddz. Thanks for persevering and posting even though you’re having PC issues. Love your work so hopefully your new PC will deliver for you so you can keep creating the great content. You’re the first thing I look for each day!
Average german player: 1)Picks the most overpowered tank at its BR 2)Dies in a fight that was an easy win 3)Instantly picks plane and divebombs as revenge 4)Loses the game because caps were completely ignored
I've played the t-29 so much I have made almost 10mil SL in it. I've learned it's ins and outs and how to kill almost any vehicle it faces, gotta love the overly confident is-6s that rush me thinking I can't kill them then I punch through the mgs on the mantlet.
This damn thing and the T34 is my greatest fear when I'm in the T-44-100. I usually don't fear much, my angled front plate can deflect long 88s after all. But those American heavies, I know if I miss that first shot, it doesn't matter how well I've angled, that shell is going clean through me nine times out of ten
Odd, tell me your secret to identifying a single pixel of a tank, completely covered in foliage and other cover, knowing it's exactly 1,684 meters away, and identifying it to be the French version of a t-34
i love when tiger2s ferds and jags finally meet their match and get matches like this because in small city maps when german heavies get downtiers its almost unfair u have to flank no other choice...that being said i did take out 3 tiger ps numerous tiger 1s and a ferd all with a t20 on stalingrad capped 4 caps and got 16k rp yesterday but tnats with good teamates...i had the same map full uptier again in my t20 later and my whole team just overpushed and payed for it
Fit like, I came across your Chanel after watching FD for so long. Really enjoying it and hope I g to learn tips as I watch. Keep up the good work, from a fellow Scot’s man.
OMG BawZ I remember a few years ago when I first watched a video of your when you were at 40 something thousand subs it’s crazy how fast you blew up after you reached 70 you took off like a rocket, my hat is off to you man and I love you videos dude they’re always so perfect
I tried grinding out the US 5.0 hell just so i can try the T34 but gave then that 50% sale made me get the T29 as my first ever premium and got my first nuke an hour later. T29 has served me well in both WT and WoT.
The ~7.0 BR premium tanks are always banger choices to grind the bulk of a nation's tree. T29, IS-6, Ru 251, Tiger II H Sla. 16, Cent Action X, Somua SM and EBR 1963, and so on. The multipliers and costs at that tier make for consistent big money and you can grind out through rank 5 easily.
Funny seeing this and thinking how much better it is over the T34. In both WoT and WT (well before they nerfed it on WoT lol) that APHE round is so much better than the APCBC the T34 has. Even though the pen is disgusting fun. Haven't played my T29 mainly because of germany 7.3 which is fuckin annoying to deal with and so is dealing with 8.0. any chance for the T32s Odd? Pls?
Bought this a week or so ago, great lineup with the T34 and T26e1-1. Surprisingly not alot of people know where to hit them. Ive gotten 6-7 kills on a few occasions and thats alot for me!
T34 being at 6.7 is still pretty much a crime for sure. Its armor can bounce even long 88s (Russian cannons are even more useless against it) and is literally just a better King Tiger overall with a bigger reload rate and solid shot (which let's be honest doesn't really matter, since the shell is so big, it causes tons of spalling). Facing it with 5.7 vehicles is scary and my only hope is flanking it (hard to do especially if the player doesn't drive into the middle of the battlefield.
Because on WOT they actually gave it the full armor thickness the actual T29 had. Both it and the T34 have the lowest amount of any of their irl models, with the majority of those tanks having nearly twice as much as they do in game. This was the American equivalent to the King Tiger and Gaijin didn’t like that so they made it unrealistic as per usual.
Oh I loved the T29 at 6.7, helped pull my mediocre ass to some really fun times. I haven't played it since it's moved up though, took a long break and still am getting back into playing somewhat correctly lol
The first time I fought this was getting a "slight" uptier in my tiger e... I pretty much rage quit after I couldn't pen anywhere and he simply oneshot my perfectly angled tiger
Is-6 better than this at all except gun depresion wich changes gamestyle, can't hulldown camp but you don t have to camp if you have stalinium at your side. Tbh i took the m46 tiger as a filler but i like it more than the t29 at 7.0
I hate shooting mg ports, highly unrealiable, it's most of the time absorbed by the mg itself or you get volumetricked and do no damage or aphe penetrates and gets absorbed the machine gunner
Load 33 t13 shells only that will store the shells on the floor making them harder and to hit and that means you won’t get one spotted by tigers especially since where the shells will be stored has loads of armor making this tank even harder to kill

@@uhoh4480 Sherman's are extremely un-noob friendly but once you can aim for the weak spots then yeah you just need to break their cannon and track and side if your alone with them

That pairing is my favorite pairing, I've spent countless hours here blasting people.

I hate shooting mg ports, highly unrealiable, it's most of the time absorbed by the mg itself or you get volumetricked and do no damage or aphe penetrates and gets absorbed the machine gunner
That is currently the best tier to play. At least you don't get splattered by missiles from helicopters or drones.
