Make bigger maps with less obstructions so a flank is more feasible?

The Elephant is not OP.
The ISU is op.
BUT the elephant is OP vs the ISU. So if the ISU didn't exist the elephant would be not OP (or viewed as op, because he isn't OP).

And the Elephant is a bit usefull against IS2, and because of Company of Callins, the Elephant is often a good choice, because you neeeed him vs the OP ISU anyway.

Really? Is this your logic?
Elephant was crazy OP long before ISU. The meta was different so it was rare to see one. Why would you wait for super late call in if you could have a bunch of T3/T4 tanks roaming the field due to German armour being far superior.

Someone said you can build ZiS and counter Ele this way. Well from my experience it doesn't work because I can snipe Soviet tanks without even getting into range? You want to rush in and close the distance? Go ahead! My support is waiting for you while I'll retreat my Ele so it can still snipe your tanks from the distance.

Play something else than 3v3 from time to time to see things as they are.

The Elephant is not OP because in 1v1 it is useless.

I don't give a fuck in other mode.

Well, a balance to the elephant could go both ways. Its range could get reduced, but it could be made more useful in 1v1s too.

A unit can be op in other gamemodes you know. Doesnt matter if you dont care.

Well I don't give a fuck about what you give a fuck about, which cancels out all the fucks. I guess it's still OP.

If you want to see what happens when you spam ISU, I suggest you view this replay.

That would require Relic to remove maps that were built for 1v1 from the pool and make them design their own maps, which would take far too much work.

Edit: Be sure to pre-order "Western Fronts: This Time Will Be Different, We Swear" now!

Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete The lack of April Fools this year is odd lol

Willy Pete: @Rosbone not dead yet. when that happens the font will switch to Papyrus

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st"

01 Apr 2025, 20:29 PM

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy
