Depends on the game mode.

While in 1v1 most factions have more or less the same chance to win the game, the stuff is more complicated in 2v2 and above.

While usually Germans have been better in team games and late games, the UKF emplacements rape the shit out of the Axis atm.

Balance feels okay.

I would however change volks as I think they are slightly over performing.

Tone down UKF mortars and bofors so that they are easier to destroy.

Change Wehr sniper ad give it slightly less hp.

Rest seems fine.

This is BS at least for me. Every time someone says about volk blob i think its low level l2p. Juat very low level.
Not just think, Im sure about it.

I think balance was perfect until WFA was released, then I think balance was moderate to good until british were released.

Now I think the game is in a semi balanced, but simply not fun state to play in.
-cheese tactics
-OH fighting for its life
-click to win abilities (counter barrage example)
-cheese tactics
-emplacements
-alien like technology
-cheese tactics
-OKW/USF blobbing
-cheese tactics

British is no doubt just a cash grab for relic

"pretty much balanced for 1 vs. 1" and " every faction has something they can abuse" pretty much sums it up.

No faction feels like the red-headed step child the way that USF was for a while or Brits were post launch mega-nerf patch. Of course you're always going to have fanboys on both sides saying otherwise. Personally I find OST the most frustrating to play as but I think that's because my Sniper micro isn't as good as it should be :P

Ost, USF and USSR are all well balanced.

UKF, remove brace and then remove the stuka, flame attack benefits etc to level the field.

OKW, replace shrek with faust. Buff rakken but remove ridiculous clock. Add side tech.

THEN

can we please take a look at some of the units that really, really, really need attention:

penals
M3 HT
Greyhound
KV-1
all static artillery (vs one click stuka callins etc)
sexton
valentine
standard churchill


In an ideal world I would remove all FRP's and loitering airstrikes too . Then reduce the effectiveness of all handheld AT (except piat cos lol) but one step at a time eh ;)

I wonder in what world people think Ostheer is balanced. I mean seriously. Pros are fighting like madmen in ESL to always have the allied faction pick over their opponent, obviously BALANCED. Only HelpingHans was able to make the faction work this week end. But noone cares. OK. You're right guys, nerf OKW, the only viable axis faction in a game where axis have 2 factions versus 3. Next allow Allies vs Allies in tournaments, so people won't even care about axis anymore.

Wow..just wow. Never thought you'd fall to this level.

On-topic: balance is a lie.

Ostheer is the best designed and most balanced faction imo. No overperforming units save the Sniper (not vs. Soviets though) and probably Ostruppen. It's just that the other factions have issues.

Playing a fair few 3v3 ATs lately and OKW is very tough to deal with.
