The whole idea of usability windows is flawed IMO.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Tommies are also worse out of cover then grens, meaning in equal, non cover engagement, tommies lose to grens in the open.

actually, it looks like the tommies now get a penalty out of cover as well. this make they worst out of cover.

There is no recording in all WW2 history of a piat actually knocking off a vehicle. Yes, it was THAT bad.

I remember reading a giant thread about the wehr sniper vs brits and their lack of counters on the alpha forums, a week later nothing was changed and relic said they were happy with the UKF balance

They don't really have penalty out of cover, they just forget how to hold and aim rifles when there isn't at least a tiny bush or twig near them.

Okay to clear some stuff up here Tommies accuracy will be the same no matter if you are in or out of cover. Out of cover you have increased cooldown and reload and when in cover you have decreased cooldown and reload.
The Bren is actually (slightly, still doing all the DPS formulas) better than the LMG42 due to having much less dramatic accuracy drop off, less time before reloading, and just straight up better damage. Basically in the things that count the most in the DPS formula the Bren has aces.
Basically your take away should be that you will be beating out Grens 1 on 1 with a large amount of reliability if you don't attempt to play hackysack with them at butt sniffing range 24/7. Stay out at range and in cover and you will do fine.
Of course this doesn't even get into Tommies having legit scary received accuracy for a 5 man squad once you upgrade....

Not necessarily agreeing with the notion of moving the sniper to T2, but regardless of that, the argument cuts both ways. British infantry sections are only buildable once there are plenty of counters available (MG42, sniper).
Applying this very same logic British Infantry should be given a chance to be on the field for a while before its hard counter is available. Therefore Sniper should come later.
If it's unfair for a Sniper to coexist with Allied light vehicles, then it is unfair for Tommies to coexist with German sniper.
My point is, units are plenty useful once there are counters on the field. The whole idea of usability windows is flawed IMO. A German sniper lasts well into the late game.
A fix is needed. Timing is not it.

Seriously, that's NOT funny in the alpha, and so as now.
