Oh,and soviet t-34s look way better than german tanks.Well, that´s highly subjective then as I find every T-34 version ugly as shit. The turret belongs into the middle of a vehicle, goddammit! ^^
Anyhow, all games with asymmetrical faction design focus on higher numbers on one faction and the higher quality units on the other one. I´ve always been a player who preferred the latter. I just don´t like the "throw away your stuff" mentality Soviets pursued.

Umm... whatabout the Ostwind? And the Brummbar?
And anyway, Soviet infantry can do even less to German tanks, especially when you consider shreked Pgrens...
What can an Ostwind do against a t34? A Brummbar can be flanked and killed by a much cheaper t34. You must already lost the entire map if the opponent went for a Brummbar before you get a T34 or an SU85.
Let's switch that around to see what happens when Soviets have full map control from the Germans. One PIV would end up going against 4 t34s, or one PIV or Stug would have to take on a KV8 supported by AT guns, which the AT guns would definately kill the PIV a lot faster than a stug or PIV can destroy a KV8. You probably going to bring Tigers to this argument to which you shouldn't just blame the Tiger, but Relic's doctrine commanders because the Soviets can summon the IS2 the same way anyways.

What are you blind? the t34 is beautiful, especially 85 variant.

Soviets played chess with their armored force (smash vital positions with frontal armored attacks and then long range 'Soviet Blitzkrieg', sacrifice one chess piece to improve operational position) while short sighted Germans played checkers. (defend, lose ground, short range counterattacks, defend, lose ground,...)

The 'throw away your stuff' mentality won the Soviets the war in 43-45 and allowed them to perform the 'Soviet Blitzkrieg'.Meanwhile the western allies achieved the same by loosing much less men. All this disrespect for the individual that the Soviets had - it might won them the war, but I really don´t think treating your men like ants is cool.

Now that's a tank worthy of the Motherland.

If Yanks are getting Pershing again, Germany getting the Kingtiger, Jagdtiger,there is no reason the Soviets shouldn't get SU-100 and T-44. T-44 would be so awesome...

As awesome as T-44 is, its a post war tank really.

You should stop visiting amateur ww2 forums, you're obviously not learning much.

Well, Pershing was, if its in the game the t-44 should be in my opinion.

Soviets need only 3 tiers

Relic has already stated that they do not want soviet combined arms to be possible.

They also stated that soviet counterparts of units for that exact reason should be stronger/more flexible so 2-3 unit spam can overcome german combined arms. Reality? Exact opposite.

The opinion of a guy calling himself the Red bear/Soviet bear with the national symbol of Russia (a bear) wearing a Russian cap on a picture resembling an old Soviet propaganda poster is definitely totally unbiased and more trustworthy.

Anyhow, it would be cool to have a SU-100 and ISU-122 in the game. But then again, I won´t have them as I don´t buy extra commanders.

I am going off the limb to say you're an American you like the Whermatch/SS everything you know about ww2 is from cod/coh and you probably rarely if ever played the soviets.
Besides your comment is ungrateful you should be thanking people like me who actually play soviets on this crappy patch so people like you can enjoy playing around with your little pixel German soldiers, living out your Whermatch officer fantasies
