Why do people still have problems with this light tank? It has 1100 hit points. You can kill it and basically two shots. It has a 30 second reload. It has no armor. It's a good tank to blow off steam
@@tonyturnmire8182 No tank at tier 10 should have a clip potential of 4,800 damage within 4 seconds. Even if you take into consideration the server delay update for the normal auto cannons the T249 even outperforms them in sheer HP shred. All other tanks that have a clip system that can mag an enemy tank takes way longer to do, think the 50 100 with its 100mm cannon takes 8 seconds to deal that 1800 damage and if you miss or bounce them you don't. You can still miss or nonpen over half the clip of the t249 and still destroy a tank. And it also has a ring of spaced armor that also blocks HE and other shells.
There is spaced armor around the trim of the hull. Which makes weird bounces. Its dpm vs light armor only makes the game a pain for people grinding tank. The only people thinking this is okay is ones that are pay to win when the tank line tanks should be better than the premium tanks. @tonyturnmire8182
I was taken out in an IS7 (from the front with low XP!!) and from full health in an Obj 705e (there's a 60mm plate in the back) by Vigilantes. So no matter what tank you play, you are not safe from this tank. I have been playing mostly tier 7 and tier 8's (with pref mm) lately, and with no Avre's, Taran's, Vigilante's, etc. to deal with, it has been a nice reminder how the game used to be.
Yes I wanted to continue testing out the Grille 15 but just can't. But I get bored fast of super heavies (At least the 'good' ones, the others are just annoying) so I'm just, not playing.
I didn’t think they would add something like this, I’ve played for 10 years now and I’ve seen a tank get released with good armor but bad gun. A tank with great concealment and bad movement. To hi-bye and your dead now. I played the CAT on Cold War. I play it great it had a good gun but not the best for armor and great movement. But after every gold tank was released they just replaced the CAT with “ hey it’s the CAT but way stronger” I went from on avg 10-12.5k games yes wins and lots of losses to maybe 2,200k a game. I 3 marked it and now I can’t even get a 4 mark (gold marks). I played the tank in its intended purpose and was rewarded with game knowledge, my placement on the map and the placement of my shots. Now I can’t even do anything cuz of the “BBBUUURRRR” tank I don’t even know the name because it that’s annoying. I stopped play WW2 cuz of artillery damage and complete BS deaths and BS RNG. I don’t think the game can survive if they continue on this path. I’m sorry for rambling and ranting it was a great video I hope to see more. This is my first time seeming any of your videos and i just subscribed to you because you feel the same way. Hope to see more from you
Its crazy how in literally one update, they absolutely trashed tier 2 and 3 in cold war and high tier ww2 with the wiesel and this thing etc. Absolute madness
As a Jagdpanzer E100 enjoyer myself, it has been amazing for me to farm my gold mark because of all the superheavies and the invulnerability to the Viligante. It's genuinely in one of the most workable states its been in for years because of the influx of these players which are trying to escape the tank with a 'balanced' 5k clip that swallows everything that can't force it to bleed.
This is exactly why I've started playin my Type 5 Heavy and Jagdpz- E-100 more even though I do not like playing very slow, sluggish and very detectable tanks for long. I may just go back to tiers 5-7 again, as well.
It is worse than that....a lot of players avoid tiers 8 to 10 because of it. The game is ruined so much that tiers 8 to 10 and eras 2 and 3 are a shitshow. Because WG is so ignorant and arrogant I have decided to put a end to it. So I quit for good this time, just because I am sick and tired of WG. Imo with WGs staff I do not believe there is any hope for the game.
I always play super heavies panzerkampfwagen 7 mainly so i haven't noticed for me but I do see the 249 just ignore the game with not much counter play on my "lighter teamates" so id say yeah, something need to be done
Not going to lie I did buy that new T249 and I have only played that tank twice on pvp mode and I no longer play it just for the simple fact it feels so wrong to delete top tear mediums from the other side of the map it needs a complete overhaul, but I will say this using it on the coop mode to farm snow balls and make 60k credits a game has been fun.
And to add to what I said before I have bounced so many shots in that T249 on coop mode…. How???? Wargaming really needs to look at this tank and fix it
Yes. And the mini gun has made playing any other light tank pointless. And I’ve played my Rogul Dorn way more than before. And I prefer the sneaky mediums which I’m afraid to play.
I've been playing for almost 9 years now, and this is the worst thing they've ever added to the game. We have to play the heaviest of superheavy tanks just to be on the copium of "I'll only take chip damage", and that chip damage is still substantial. Play anything other than the heaviest of tanks and you're literally just accepting that you're at the mercy of these little gremlin tanks. Playstyles like going hulldown as a heavy turret medium are invalidated by the massive chip damage T249 has, despite how effective that is against some of the best anti-tank guns in the game. T249 will still shred you. You aren't counterplaying the T249 by playing superheavies, you're mitigating damages.
I’m even getting scrapped in super heavies. Somehow using one with 2950hp is getting one shot and I’m toast. Had recently also been lined up with a shot and the game “mysteriously” glitch and then I get control again just in time to watch my tank explode, or had shots hit and do damage then without anyone moving they suddenly become invincible. Thankfully it’s not every match but geez…
This is what happens when WG introduces yet ANOTHER ridiculously OP into a game that is nearly broken. Veteran/savvy players have to react. And all of this is so unnecessary. If WG made absolutely no changes to the game since pre-6.0 - bear with me here - the player base overall would still be much happier with the game than they are now.
Totally agree from where coming from .I really think that WOT slipped up with this . Can fully understand people playing it but for tank to appear and completely change the coarse of the game. All seems a bit unecessary to me ..
No. But then again that's because I'm a Super Heavy Main so they were always my most played, followed by Assault TDs. I play much more varieties these days. And many of the Super Heavies I love haven't gotten very many matches recently. However I have somewhat avoided most thinly armored tanks Tiers 8 and up since the T249s release. Very toxic tank.
There isn't a strike team. It was an empty, holding statement to placate the community whilst they wait for it to be forgotten. They no longer acknowledge its existence on Twitch streams.
I hate the t249, it's completely busted and op. I only play super heavies in tier 10 now or I only play tiers 7 and lower. I miss play my light tanks and lightly armored TD's at tiers 8-10...
My Charlemagne contract was completed this morning so nothing else other than slow dailies to complete for this dying game. Ironically the daily Xmas chest dropped a TOW Wiesel epic drop that hardly even excited me.
That's what I'm saying in tanks out there that would do just this kind of damage just like the artillery they would one shot tanks but no not no more in the game it's too fake now keep the game interested & hard most of us like it like that they need to bring the artillery back
I find the t249 just a giggle tank stress relief tank. I don’t think WG needs to nerf per say but they can reduce the number of them appearing. Like limit them 1 per platoon and at very least reduce it to one or two per team per game. If they do that I feel more ppl will move on and play different tanks. If they do that by the end of January the hype will be gone.
You are exactly right there's nothing wrong with the tank. The games don't last long anyways you got nine minutes to kill the enemy team. I could see if they took the time limit off, but that tank has no armor. You can kill it in two shots.
Yeah if they nerf it and ppl bought the way it is then they should offer a refund. And it needs to stay in mode it was in. The pc just came out with the squall now QuickBaby said it’s a giggle tank. This is the same and they should limit in platoons and in games. I think that will take care of your issues but I am also in agreement that the chip damage needs to go. That I agree with u on
Big difference between this tank and the squall... the Squall does 800 damage in 4 seconds while the T249 does 4000 more damage in the same time frame for 4800 damage in 4.3 seconds. I get the gun is fun cause brrt, but why can we not nerf the tanks damage to be more like that squall? Dropping the damage down is what's needed, not MM and platoon limitations because those do not solve the issue of too much damage in too little time. We can't make the comparison to PCs autocannons and ignore the huge difference and damage potential brother. If we balanced ours to match PCs the tank would be fine. 4800 damage in 4 seconds is too much. 800 damage like the squall would be fine and what I wanna see. So nerfs are necessary for the T249 its as simple as that.
@ well I can see your argument. If they do nerf it like u say then I agree chip damage should go. Because I know I don’t get crap if I don’t penetrate. I can agree to a point of limiting damage to say 2,000 or even 1,500. But if u do that and ppl did buy this tank the way it is right now there should be compensation for them. Because when u sell a tank for money in a certain way then nerf it then ppl should get a total refund if they so choose or compensation like a certain amount of silver, certain amount of gold back, skins or even premium time. There is another solution to this problem bring the squall in like in pc at T8?and take the t249 out but give the squall free of charge to those with the t249. Now that would be a good way to settle the argument all the way around. And also beg them to bring in the Tiger Maus because I would trade my T249 in for those 2 tanks to be brought in from pc version to us.
the refunding can happen and I'm okay with that. The other solution just sounds unnecessary and the Czech lights will come to the game eventually and coexist with the T249. So no need to do that. I suggested 1500 in my review but I'd be fine with 900 to 1500. 2k is still too much.
@ I agree the 1500. And I hope you’re right with that on the lights. So what about the Tiger maus? Because I would love to own one here on the console. But then I do like German tanks. When I started 9 yrs ago that’s the tanks I fell in love with.
@ and I do see your point. I still see it as a giggle tank. So I just laugh when I run into it. I find it fun and I go get another tank and play on. But I do see that u and Clone make money off your content and it would be frustrating to u guys because I can see it ruining games for u so I can see how it affects u. So I am understanding and I was just thinking and making suggestions because WG seems to nitpick listen unless ppl speak up. Like the gambling crap. So my suggestion for the squall is because WG doesn’t discuss anything ever or ask the community anything apparently so I was hoping these suggestions might entice them to make changes.
This is so true, the T249 needs a nerf as soon as possible adding a cool down to it like the gau 8 would make it a lot more balanced
Why do people still have problems with this light tank? It has 1100 hit points. You can kill it and basically two shots. It has a 30 second reload. It has no armor. It's a good tank to blow off steam

It's practically pointless to even play wwii tiers VIII-X
Its crazy how in literally one update, they absolutely trashed tier 2 and 3 in cold war and high tier ww2 with the wiesel and this thing etc. Absolute madness
The T249 was the perfect reason to finish grinding the Type 4 & 5 Heavy that i put on the shelf years ago.
Haha right. I very rarely played my Type 5 Heavy but when the T249 rolled out, I dusted my Type 5 off and off I went lol.
I did the same had type 4 in garage for a while and grinded out to type 5 after t249
I did for the maus. I already had the type 5. The t249 still annoys me. I bought it and I don't like playing it because it's so broken.

No tank has ever forced a meta change as fast as the T249.
At least give it the overheat option the same as the GAU in Cold War. Also reduce the pen to under a hundred.

That's his secondary gun, not the main gun that takes a couple of seconds.
Look. They need to implement One Up One Down. Period
I don't play era 2 anymore either and i used to love my era 2 mediums 😢
Because of the Gau-8? or the Wiesel? or Both?
@@JustaConedef both. Used to love playing in the m60 rise and the 2av but you just die instantly to the auto cannons
I have the T249 and 100% agree it needs to be nerfed
I play my derp wagons with HE to counter them
Yeah I been playing my heavy tanks just to survive a bit longer. the time to kill is to high it's not a call of duty game
i stopped playing tier 8 & higher cause of that tank
i am cause their needed so badly to stop these less then 1 minute matches from being total unbearable loss iv become desensitized to it
Yeah I'm gonna step away from tanks and play ships for a while and have some . Let me know when wg figures out how to balance their game
