OKW Flak HT vs US AA
Posts: 342
Permanently BannedHow does that make sense?
Proposed changes
OKW truck
OKW reduce set up time to 1.5 seconds (Considering this truck has no Machine gun this is justified)
Buff suppression to account for less damage than US AA truck. This will also assist in controlling US/Sov blobbing
For the love of god - Fix the accuracy when firing around obstacles.
Slight damage buff (but not more than US AA truck)
Decrease fuel cost to 45 again. This will at least make it more viable in 1v1 considering its OKW fuel
US AA truck
Introduce 2 second set up time.
Slight decrease in main weapon reload time (10-15% decrease)
Slight Hp decrease. Atm takes 3 shreks to kill....
Relic logic that they give allies a more powerful AA truck that has no set up time. Why is it no surprise that they seem to consistently ignore allied OP issues. Why the hell was another second added to the OKW HT. Who the fk comes up with these stupid decisions?
maxim spam, US rifle blob, IS2 NEVER ADRESSED, US AA as soon as one thread is made or EVEN NO THREADS made they nerf axis at the drop of a hat.
Look at the 1v1 streaks of top players and it shows you there is something wrong with sovs and US getting ridiculous W/L ratios.
When US has 90% WL ratio and recent Soviet WL ratio as over 90% THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE GAME. As opposed to OH getting obliterated by US and OKW being the worst 1v1 nation by far statistics wise.

The reload time on the US main gun is pretty long as well. I think the fires from the back aspect was meant to help balance it, but nothing can take advantage of the extra pen really.
It would help your argument if you proposed changes.

Permanently BannedI agree that they haven't got the parity right yet. Part of the problem is the behavior of the OKW truck shooting the ground and/or every obstacle between it and its target, when the US HT machine guns shoot through such things.

You do realize what that means, right?

Giving all flak weapons a chance to go through obstacles (since *some* shells seem to go through obstacles and flak doesnt seem to) buffs greatly buffs the 251/17 (flak halftrack) 2 cm flak emplacement, 37.5 mm base flak, ostwind, luchs, scout car cannon; simply because many of their bursts overshoot because of weird height displacement, or the flak burst hits the ground and does nothing.
The 251/17 is highly accurate, suppreses in half a burst, has a FREE vet 1 panzer tactician smoke ability (EXTREMELY useful in escaping EVERYTHING), with the major disappointment of having flak physics and hitting all obstacles between it and its target.
Needless to say, the only annoying issue with this is that the m15 can drive up to a set up 251/17, fire its cannon, destroy the 251/17, and wander off with a decent amount of health left. So you have to drive away in order to survive an m15.
Other than that, its amazing at being a vehicle where you set it up at a chokepoint and it would wipe all squads that come near. It takes a long time for normal mg's to do that.
Also, before the massive stuart frontal armor increase, the 251/17 was able to destroy stuarts from the front if the stuart doesnt do its stun shot.
But its a cool thing that a stuart's stun shot allows it to kill a puma.

I was a bit unclear with what I meant. I definitely don't want things going through cover and terrain constantly, but this thing will shoot through multiple rows of cover before hitting the target on some occasions (too many). I don't think this thing even overshoots really, it grossly undershoots most of the time.

Last time I had a 1gg1 with an Us flak HT vs the Okw flak Ht the Okw wins because his demage was higher

Permanently BannedOh man sorry but you are a fanboy you only rage about the allis xD

90% WL ratio for US and soviets vs 60-70% for OH and OKW among top players. Enough said.
And if you lose to OKW flak in US AA u must not know how to press S

-Decrease set up time
-Increase range to be slightly less than USF AA
-Doesn't need more suppression, already pins easily and quickly
Maybe change the damage of the USF 50cal mg, its too effective for a coaxial mounted mg
Thats about it i would think

I actually had a similar experience in a game last night. Drove a M15 into range of an already set up 251/17 and both trucks opened fire upon each other at about the same time. Both trucks did a ton of damage to each other but the 251/17 came out ahead.
That said, there were no object in between the vehicles for the 251/17 to accidentally shoot. The damage was close enough that a few missed shots would have turned the fight the other way.

However, it seems to powerful for its price. If anything, it should be the M15 which requires the setup time and the flak half track which doesn. The only reason I see the flak half track even having a setup time is for the fancy opening and closing of the armor plates animation to work, but this is not needed for balance reasons

I cannot how idiotic relics sometimes acts. the flaktrack was a bit on the up side before the nerf now its hardly useful at all

As it stands now the unit would be fine if a pebble on the road didn't block half of its shots. Terrain Projectile Collision is one thing they need to remove from the game.
If the OKW AA Halftrack got buffed, I would propose making it similar to the kubelwagon in which movement is unrestricted but in order to shoot it has to setup. So if you need to retreat, the unit could back up immediatly but only fire when it has been setup which would justify the current 3 second setup time.

Permanently BannedThe OKW Flak Half Track was close to the American AA Halftrack during the Western Fronts Alpha performance wise but got hit with the nerf bat while the American version was left untouched until the recent nerfs.

Yes i have no idea why they changed it so indifferntly. really not feasible atm.

Permanently Bannedokw track is worthless at the moment. it simply very unreliable as most shots simply are not hitting their target. the okw track can win from an us track if the us track already shot his load of its main cannon and is reloading.

Would be nice if a PIII was available in the same HT
