....which are directly related to maps. USF late game is very mobile and hard hitting, but when all the maps are small and easy to lock down then USF late game is shit. Soviet late game isn't in as dire straits due to indirect fire but still you get my point.
Fixing maps should be the top priority.

Fixing map is the way for you to say "Don't fix anything, don't give anything to USF that could buff their late game, I'm happy with the current stat of balance in fact".

Usf is still second best faction in 1v1

pfffft...
1v1 format can be neglected cuz almost nobody really play it.
2v2 and 4v4 is what players prefer.
4v4 is what really should be looked at.
Unless imbalance is what really attracts people to 4v4...

Order of popularity goes 4v4 > 1v1 >= 2v2>>>>>>3v3.
1v1 and 2v2 are currently pretty balanced.

Except in a XvX game there are X times more players than in 1v1.
So 4v4 >>>>>> 2v2 > 3v3 > 1v1.

1v1 and 2v2 are the current standard for tournaments and competition for a reason; because they are both popular modes that don't suffer from (as many) horrible balance issues.
Like what is the argument here? I don't think anyone disagrees 3v3 and 4v4 are nuts.

No it isn't, I already said I think the factions could still use help. The fact I think fixing maps is a priority does not mean I think USF or any of the other factions shouldn't get any help. I don't think it's unreasonable to say USF late game suffers due to lack of ability to flank no?
2vs2 is now the most balanced game mode according to coh2chart.com

That's like saying yeah you can neglect professional soccer because only 0,01% of all soccer players play as professionals. So let them play with rubber balls to increase the fun.
1v1 is the most competive part without any doubt followed by 2v2.
Only because 4v4 is played the most doesn't mean it's the most important.
People play 4v4 because they want FUN (just like the usual soccer player).
But people usually play 1v1 and 2v2 for competition.
(Or just because they have no more friends that own the game like me

One way to control that with OKW would be to give them 100% fuel/muni income but adjust the prices upwards by the same amount. That means no effect on costs or timing but now they don't benefit as dramatically from fuel bonus activities (and this would have literally 0 effect on 1v1 balance).

That's a rather elegant and simple solution. It would add a tiny amount of balance in team games overall, but a tiny amount is still an amount, and better than nothing.

Maps are maps and we cannot design maps exclusively like Steppes to ensure USF has a fair chance to win like any other faction.
So instead of adapting maps, it is maybe time to gives the right tools to all factions to perform well on the majority of the maps.

Comparing soccer with coh2 is pushing it a bit too much, nein?
I think we have a low player base is coz the larger team games are not that enjoyable. Although most people play them. And that's where the money is.
Also a lot of people play video games for fun. I play quite a bit of LoL, a whole lot more than coh2, and its despite the fact that I know I will never play in south korea in a huge arena for 2.3 mil
