The 279e should barely be able to turn as in the real world the prototype could barely turn due to its unique track layout. If WOT would severely reduce its turning speed that would be the perfect nerf. Then you would have a good chance to get to its sides or rear to shoot it.

[@RedXlV]

Just imagine, Wargaming's original plan was to introduce the *real* Object 279 as a Tier 10 reward vehicle. They even fully modeled it. They went with the Object 726 instead (and renamed it 279(e) for some reason) because the real 279 would've been even more ridiculously broken. It'd have the Object 277's 130mm gun, 55 km/h top speed, and thicker armor that's so sloped even Jaegeru HEAT shells would probably have less that 33% chance of penning from the front. The pre-nerf 279(e) was basically a Tier 11 heavy. If the real Object 279 had been added, it would be a Tier 12.

Good luck :D Not agains a buch of bot.. Will see instantly that this 279 not even good tank.. its bad actually..

[@chrisbowling3097]

The MM is so broken, when you try to improve, and you come up against this or the Chieftain and your team has no counter. The MM needs fixed, so that if you play this, then the other team gets one or you wait to play. Just like they fixed it with the EBR's. If they can change the MM for those, they can for these.

[@noobbody-gf8fh]

Sounds like a skill issue. Chieftain and 279 aren't very Op anymore. Sconq and 277 literally outperform both of them at this point.

[@Xelianow]

The huge problem is that this tank forces people to use gold to even stand a sliver of a chance, regardles of how well the 279e is positioned. There are people out there who either can not afford gold ammo or will not use it - and in those cases the 279e is just the most OP tank imaginable... I would indeed like to see an armor nerf, either by reducing the front plate so that you can actually pen it when face hugging and pointing your gun down or by reducing the sides of the front plate, so that it actually gets weaker when it tries to angle. I don't see a problem with the lacking lower plate or the fact that you can't track and damage it at the same time. Thats this tanks spirit after all... was bothers me more is that even when it doesn't use its gun depression, doesn't bait the enemy into shooting the tracks by rocking itself up a pile of rubble, but instead just sits out in the open or comes around a corner you can't pen it either. If it would require the player to do unconventional things in order to succeed that would make it a great tank. If you can drive like a complete donkey and still not get pened - thats the stupid part.

You should never be shooting this thing frontally, that's proof of poor location and tank skills on your part.

WG really needs to change the missions which you need to do in order to get the 279e, because some missions since the HE nerf are basically fckng impossible. Like those missions requiring you to do a set amount of crits over a number of battle or do x crits 3 times in a row.

And again, QG promotes toxic OP tanks and the toxic players abusing them (just look how he pushed/blocked the obj140 to get the kill on the Skorpion for himself...). And QB cannot even openly say the tank is still OP despite saying more nerfs could (should?) be done... QB, don't stop at just looking at the WN8 diff that is slightly above 0. Look more broadly and you'll see that EVERY OTHER tier X heavy tanks (except the VK 72.01k) have a negative WN8 diff, even the Obj260. This shows how much better these tanks are compared to nearly anything else.

[@nephalos666]

It was not nerfed hard enough. Neither was the Chieftain. Both the 279e and the Chieftain have armor that remains brokenly strong. They are allowed to see tier 8s (meaning this game you showed is not "impressive" at all in the slightest). And they do NOT have mirror matchmaking like the clown cars do. Nerf the armor, nerf their tiers (cant see battles below tier 10 and can't platoon with anything below tier 10), and FORCE THEM TO FIGHT EACH OTHER. One team has a 279e? Cool, means the other team has one. One team has a Chieftain? Cool, means the other team has one. Seriously, seeing 279e games and Chieftain games is NOT what we, your viewers, enjoy seeing that much. They're, to borrow a British curse, BLOODY BORING to watch.

STOP MAKING TANKS that have IMPENETRABLE turrets. BRING BACK WEAKSPOTS on all tanks. If you create a high DPM heavy than give it other limiting featurea like shitty armor. Its not hard to fix this game so players return thet just refuse to do it. They want people getting frustrated to the point of leaving so their oldest most competetive players can farm.

It should have a completely different nerf... Bigger cupola, or added different frontal weak point + it should have only tier X matchmaking, tier VIII and even most of tier IX, just can't pen it, all it has to do is to hide cupola and farm. This tank is a proof that even a complete 500 dpg noob can just buy a boosting service for like 200$ get it unlocked and feel invincible in almost every -2 matchmaking. Its just stupid and should not exist. Same thing goes to VK 72.01 and T95/FV4201, except for these two at least people can't just get it straight away from boosting companies lol.

It's an OP tank that is available ONLY to the best players or players willing to fork over $$$ to a boosting company (which WG does so little to prevent their use 😡). Now anytime a Tech Tree tank begins to show a slightly higher win % it gets nerfed hard, sometimes 2 or 3 times (Progetto 65). WG needs to leave the tech tree tanks alone, even if slightly OP, because EVERYBODY can get their hands on these tanks. WG just adjust the missions so they are more achievable for average players. This kills 2 birds with 1 stone. Gets the 279e into more average players hands, which will lower the win % and it KILLS the use of Boosting companies. Just the opinion of this old Tread Head.

I obtained this tank only after years of effort and shortly after the nerf. I am fine with the Nerf with the exception of the pen reduction. I don't see why this tank gets less pen than an average tier 10. Seem like BS to me. That being said, I still think its better than any tech tree heavy. I will also say its not as good as the raw win rate of 55% suggests. Most of the people who play this are 53 to 60% overall players. I don't think a sub 50% player could earn this tank. You still have to think, its not bullet proof. Been using to complete last couple 260 missions.

[@mortichaione3309]

It still destroys everything the average player learns through progression to be decent in the game. No lower or frontal weaknesses, and even the side armor is just trolling even seasoned players.

Quickybaby Just stop Qe arnt all like you i play the game how i like. Stop dumping on tanks. Maybe try mariocart because all are the same. You never say anything nice about anything

[@moitp2]

I am sorry, but when I reed some comments, many people probably never played the tank or dont understand it. People wants an armour nerf but cant understand that if you do it, the tank basically becomes useless because of shape of the hull. Even now, if you have a taller tank, it's not that difficult to pen on flat terrain. The main reason why it can bounce so much, is when players are angling the hull. On flat it's pennable and you still have two cupolas that are not that small. People dont understand that nerfing a tank doesn't mean to destroy it. In the current state, the tank is fine. When it can angle, that can be toxic, but is it worse than a 705a side scrapping ? Not sure.

[@animalyze7120]

To be fair the 279e is more Hype than anything else. Easily flanked especially if you are in a platoon with another medium or heavy. The nerf wasnt much but it did put a bit of a leash on this thing. For the amount of time and effort to complete the missions for this tank it should very well be special. Folks don't know how to fight these things and cry in fear and frustration. If you play enough CW's you soon learn how to deal with these things and they aren't so OP feeling once you learn it.

[@masterkaljami6822]

I am not impressed. Blud won against tier 8 tanks and almost fumbled those duels in the beginning. I still don't like how easy it is to play the 279e the armor is so forgiving and and lover tier tanks can't pen you unless you throw completely.

WU TANG WU TANG

[@Lemmiatem78]

Tiger Style seems to prove he is just the usual scrub lord carried by an OP vehicle, facing terrible opponents and has no idea what to do in game as he continues to whiff shell after shell into the M-VI-Y turret

[@didrasrc9219]

People that facing 279e think that this tank is broken and op, also forgot who is driving this tank, and how they got it in the first place, in reality is all skill difference, a good player will farm you while driving any tank !!!

[@cipinassssss]

nope both t95 chieftain and this obj 279 is still toxic as can be + almost every person playing with these tank spaming gold like motherfuc,,,,,, decrease armor dpm and gun handling + limit match making to 9+ only or 10 tier only playing against this if you are tier 8 thats i wana jump from cliff or be submarine

[@Tikuros]

Maybe it is just the years of conditioning speaking, but I don't feel any less dread when I see one of these vehicles. But I certainly seen more fall than ever before

[@shapeshifter7676]

If they nerf it more, what would be the point of doing those missions at all? I think this is enough, a reward tank should be better than others, it's a REWARD ffs

[@lxrd_cs]

The funniest way of annoying 279 players is to shoot the weakspot under the gun, ofc RNG will rarely allow that but still

[@hybridwolf66]

279e is so OP, there are no amount of nerfs that will help. I should not be forced to spam Gold to have a prayer of a pen. No thumbs ever for a 279e video.

[@yms6892]

The lack of gold rounds fired at him is nuts

[@curlywhitfield8100]

I don't enjoy watching a 279e video. Where the skill in playing a tank that most others can't damage.

[@loboptlu]

So 5 km less,100 hp less and a little less dpm ,great so it has become less impenetrable and not as dangerous anymore , good joke thats not a nerf if you can’t still pen it .

[@davidwaxter66]

dude cant even aim properly against the m-vi-y and went against tier 8s and 9s. played against bots to get a good game. cant nerf the tank enough if bad players can still do well

[@icroxreplays8957]

everyone in the comments are forgetting that only like 2% of the best playes have obj 279e. ofc that is op in the right hands.

[@CristiGhici]

A true Wu Tank Clan fan 😂

[@julianlaustsen1991]

the nerf wasn't enough, it has to much frontal armor... it needs bigger cupola.

[@davidupton5252]

It's probably people like me who refuse to engage it as it's simply a waste of time, I still refuse to engage it as it's wasting my time it feels like I'm pissing in the wind it's a rock with a gun I tend to drive in the other direction I don't let this thing hit or kill me prefer other red tanks do that this thing still ruins games just being in it.

[@goranhajduk1992]

The most common reason for nerfing that tank is this: that tank and many other tanks shouldn't be in the game at all. It is just a blasphemy for this game.

[@DvdV1337]

Its should be locked at tier 10 mm only. Good luck in your tier 8s vs this op thing.

[@Rap7OrZ]

Good thing they nerf something that is really hard to obtain, but premium crap like the bz is still doing fine

[@rustedniddleslinger9475]

I'm leaving this game solely because of that cancer bz 176

[@liambanning3674]

This tank is an absolute misery to play against, its right up there with the BZ-176

[@TROLGUY999]

Mid game for mid player in OP tank. Nothing special.

[@TIJUANABC_664]

what about Type-59? i been bouncing rounds and non pens half the shots :/

[@yourstepsister2471]

This Aim is horrible. Dude can’t seem to hit coupolas from 5 meters.

[@Jorgeilie]

are u playing vs bots? because in NA all ppl shoot gold to 279 and arty dont stop hitting you

[@sanguinius1284]

Best thing about the video was, the 2 players at the beginning chatting :).

[@caesar6790]

Obj 279 worst than IS 7 right now, wg turned it to "walking garbage ", not worth to gain it.

[@peterstubbs5934]

Tanks like this screw the game up

[@u_mad_broo2373]

Watch how many crykids, crying bc they cannot get 279e🤣

[@mathiasgds6318]

Will there be a tier x rating video? And or a tier 8/9 premium tier rating? I would loooove it

[@moose8337]

It's crazy, on console, the 279e is considered kind of bad, its armor is decent, but nearly every shot in the side will ammo rack it, Autoloaders will pop its lid at an almost 50% chance. I will say, it's almost rare to have standard shells fired at you in tier 10 on console. Our economy and silver earn is astronomical compared to pc.

[@robinkhn2547]

guess thats cos the terrible aim u have by playing with a controller has to be compensated with gold rounds lol.

[@na8291]

world of tanks blitz stays winning

[@moose8337]

@robinkhn2547 we have keyboard and mouse support and no, aiming with controller isn't hard, if it is for you, you're just brain dead.
