So yeah, let's hear it.
Time to see what people realy think about OKW, in terms of balance. Here is the most simple poll.
So you think OKW currently is:

Tie all the resource income from 1v1 to 4v4 the same and the game will be fixed.
That's easy. Make the sum of all resources from 4v4 maps like the sum of all resources from 1v1 maps.
At least make a try. I am sure what it makes the game unbalanced is the speed in where we pass from early to late game.

While true, it'd be better than +48 per player.

I play every game mode nad I voted for 1v1 and 2v2 for balanced and 3v3 and 4v4 OP. The snowball effect is just insane in 3v3+.

That means around 16 caches. 3200 manpower (equivalent to 12 squads or 800 manpower per player). Try that on a balanced game on early-mid and your team will have a disadvantage of 12 squads. I agree that caches can work on late game with no effect in your manpower but that's late game. The real problem is the lack of early-midgame on big maps. If you decide to spam caches in 4v4 the enemy will have a huge advantage and will cap more territory and probably will destroy some of your caches.
I'd be nice to test that.

Or just complete Relic's in-game survey?

No I'm talking about just 4. Each cache gives +3 to each player. With 4 caches that's +12fuel across the entire team. If they have 4 caches, which isn't uncommon in 4v4, that's +48 fuel added into the game every few seconds. Of course the mode is going is going to be a clusterfuck when entire teams are getting 12 more fuel then they would in an average 1v1.

It's crazy that you can boost the resource rate of your entire team for what's essentially the cost of an engineer of one player. Changing the default points won't have any effect while the crazy cache meta is still happening.
It's especially bad for OKW who isn't even supposed to be able to boost their economy in the first place. That weakness is completely erased in teamgames.

2v2 OKW being close to balanaced is what I find funny about 3v3/4v4s.
The fuel caches change everything in those game modes, most of the time a team winning or losing in the late game depends on how many fuel points and fuel caches they can secure.
Guess which faction benefits the most right now from fuel caches and is the reason they are unable to build them?
