I wonder how many people have left/quit this game or at least took a break because the Balance/meta is too shit.

We have CalliOP, 1919 zooka blob, British Standfast simcity and Artillery cover for some months now ;) and apparently they didn't bother to fix it in the "AEC balance patch"

I, for one, definitely stopped playing because it's so boringggggg.

Either you abuse the shit out of indirect fire and LMG or OKW inf runs around like swarming ants.

Instead of quitting i #adapted.
How?
I switched factions

From ostheer Main to soviet Main and because of that I found the fun in the game again.

Actually, if you start playing the game from the other side, you'll quickly notice that both sides have their kind of things that they abuse.

For more, I'm more bored of the whole building hopping meta that somehow took over in the last few months.

Since the beginning of time, Relic has given both sides OP stuff as to Balance.

I took a break for a year because I got sick of Relic not fixing the problems and the blobbing and spam metagame.

I took a break once for personal reasons... Recently I got a little fed up with the game and started some RPG's. It's not the meta that bothers me - I play all factions and suck equally at all of them - it's the stream of patches that came on the 2nd semester last year, I felt alienated.

How about not to abuse things and try to play a cool/normal strategy?
That way you will have double the fun when you win.
Because in my pov, thats more fun then abusing things and winning.

+1

But building 5 maxims, spamming calliope, blobbing volks/rifles/LMGs makes ppl feel so good because they get very good results with very little effort - they start to think they're actually good at the game. Those kind of "strategies" are easier to implement than counter, that's the problem really...

I'm currently inactive, but that has nothing to do with the game, but the fact I'm moving & have to focus on job/studies at the moment ;)

The only way I can enjoy the game is trying out non-meta stuff and making it work. Like Recon and Mech at the moment.

Taking a break at the moment. Fasting from digital games.

I used to play a lot up until leIGFest. After that, I've been more hesitant. I haven't dropped it, by I play a lot less ladder games and a lot more custom games against friends.

I have not been playing much these past 2 months, maybe a couple games a week. Not really because of the game, but I've had a bunch of stuff going on and other games I wanted to play instead in my free time.
