@@alexturnbackthearmy1907 Kek, isn't it funny that real, legally regulated gambling - while unfair, is still at least somewhat reasonable... But "legal" "game mechanics" are so rigged against you that you have a better shot of landing on the moon than winning a prize?
@@frankerin8655 in what universe do you live in that you have a 1/1000 chance of winning the lottery. definitely higher chances of winning this tank than the lottery.
I love how the IS-7 is tons more expensive, but this thing is quite literally better in almost every way than that in exchange for a single BR increase.
I remember facing this beast in my 8.0 Italian setup with Aubl-hvg, R3-t120 and Centauro when it was introduced. It was immortal, could not pen it even from behind, totally balanced as all event vehicles were.
Yeah i had a blast playing it aswell being immortal when it first released also would give me a good laugh everytime people would try to revenge bomb and it would just do nothing
Seeing that Huey come screaming in over top of you legit had me humming "Ride of the Valkyries". Also those bombs failing to kill you was the most hilarious thing I've seen all day; I bet that CAS player was pissed and was probably screaming at his monitor like "why won't this bastard die?!"
I like how odd bought 3 BT-7 F32s when they were about 17 USD, and has 10 ITPs from when they were like 7. Mans an investment god (and knows powerful vehicles)
i remember in a 38th parallel match a 279 went to our spawn and was getting shot at by at least 3 people and absorbed like 20 rounds before i randomly shot the turret ring and killed him
I had some spare SL and gambled a little. Mostly boosters and other junk but I did get a coupon for the premium German Coastal ship Lubeck which I was able to sell for enough Gaijin Bucks to fuel my camouflage addiction
Yup the 279 cannot die to bombs probably only BIG bombs like the FAB-5000 or the new one, or with AGM but its still hard since you need to hit the hatches on top of the turret, in SQB its a nightmare since if you dont kill it with tanks is basically over.
I got the Ki-94, the plane that used to be $2K USD on the gaijin market, on my first and last 'gatcha' box thing from one of the last events. it dropped down to like 130 usd, still nuts, but I waited several months and when it bumped back up to over 200, I sold it.
I grinded so much for this tank it nearly broke my sanity. I grinded it using Japan aviation tech tree and actually managed to reach the F4EJ before I got this thing. Best event vehicle ever
I have the Oj279. I grinded the event. Spent no money to get it. Literally played blood, sweat and tears to get it. Basically became a second job to get
Same and no joke took a month off warthunder after the event only got to play a handfull of games with the 8.3 br until it got bumped up to 8.7 blood and sweat tears indeed.
The first day I got this thing after grinding it I squared up with a Tiger II and said aloud "what're you gonna do? pen me?" and he slapped me right next to the gun and hit the ammo in the back of my turret. Still remember that gigachad.
The prices crashing isn't because of people selling them to buy SL to buy crates. Its because you can get those vehicles from the SL crate and no matter how rare a few people are going to get them. Many of those people having only spent like 1m SL on it and seeing they can sell it to a buy order for 200+ GJN just dump it. Which tanks the price.
Play top tier You aint gaining that shit even with premium unless you have an incredible match Repair and restocking costs suck and default useless heat fs forces you to pay out the ass for apdsfs
@@commisaryarreck3974 bro, i have over 5k hours, i think i know how the game works lol. besides, i am playing 5.0 to 6.7, as that sweet spot with Germany and the Tiger P is so god damn lucrative! the Porche Command Tiger and the Do 335 combo is amazing for earning SL.
I remember carrying a match one time in Sands of Sinai, if I remember correctly, by by defeating a Obj 279 with my Ru 251. I felt so damn powerful. If I lost the duel it would have very likely carried the enemy team single-handedly.
Odd, I always love your videos. But, I have to say seeing you Kool Aid man those two tanks was exceptional. And seeing that Huey do a quick pedal turn and land on the cap with you topped it all. As always, your content is fantastic, and so are you.
Maybe I've just been blessed by the snail but I've gotten a lot of crazy vehicles from those silver lion crate events. So far I've won a BI, Jaguar E and a BMD-4
I was one of the 2 people who sold at that bottom 255... I thought its going to drop for sure not aware that the chances of vehicles dropping are even lower than at previous events.
i remember grinding out the event years ago. After hours and hours i completed it, but I never played ground back then, so I opted for the au-1 instead. I sold it a year later for around 300gjn. Much regret now :(
Getting this thing was one of the dumbest warthunder experiences of my life. It was during one of the crafting events that I had zero interest in so I was just selling off parts from it and buying keys to unbox crates. Wound up getting a KV-1E to drop which I had zero interest in and happened to sell within a reasonable ballpark range of the object 279. I think in total I spend probably around 15-20 actual dollars on the 279 at most with the rest financed off the KV-1E.
Omg Odd I’m so glad you’re ok from the stair fall, could be very serious!!! Keep chugging and making these absolutely amazing videos my Scottish friend o7
I'd love to see you play Staghound AA. Low tier is best tier, right? And with twin .50 cal it shreds enemies like they weren't even there. Go on, give it a whirl :D
As one of the noble weeaboo master race; I can all but confirm that a shark character of questionable morality would be something of a gang leader and the author of that series would /probably/ name that character Anchovy. Which would make all the underlings address that character as "Anchovy-sama(or Anchovy-aniki/aneki if it was a yakuza-esq story).
I had like 5-6 million silver lions because I don't want to progress after 5.7-6.3ish and already got all my tanks for usa, germany and russia (and most planes around 4.7), so I gambled 111 pinatas. I got: 1 million SL back and 1 decal. No cammos, no vehicles, no hats, no country balls, no nothing It was 109 times small ammount of SL/tiny boosters that expired/wagers and those stupid stars that give like 5k for some random bs

As a free player, there is 99.99999% chance I'd never play it. Well, sucks :/ The concept of "looks cool, so screw you for not playing some obscure event 5 years ago" is really demoralizing
I can confirm that: 60000 SL and I got a 30% xp booster (and I have 19000 SL left only.) It was a mistake, I know, but still, I needed that try. And now I have to grind for SL so I can order the last tank of rank 2 in the Swedish tech tree (and finally I'm not throw together with the German and Soviet heavies, only French and British ones)
Thank you for uploading great videos all the time, and please don't be tripping down the stairs and accidentally die! My life would be less fulfilling without a frequent OddBawZs video.

The building breach lol that's cruel and must have looked beautiful seeing it turn to dust and crumble right next to your enemy
it would be cool if you brought out the Tiger 6 and the Chi-ri II together because they're like night and day opposites of tanks
That Huey at 15:57 looked like he was about to drop off troops😂
Fun fact: This tank has external fuel tanks near the tracks, and they do not need FPE to extinquish, just let em burn and u get no damage!
i remember in a 38th parallel match a 279 went to our spawn and was getting shot at by at least 3 people and absorbed like 20 rounds before i randomly shot the turret ring and killed him
The Huey coming down to land on the cap was such a cool moment. Sometimes, CAS can be pretty awesome.
