OKW can be killed in less than 5 minutes

No more volk shreck blob is great. But having to pay 400MP + 55F for medics after I open with mechanized is just too much.

It's pretty messed up that OKW healing is tied up to teching choices. Now, when you also factor non-linear teching into account it's a mess.

What if we changed OKW healing truck like this:
- The Med truck starts off with medics when it spawns; but only offers healing (no forward reinforcement)
- To unlock T1-unit building + forward reinforcement, an upgrade needs to be purchased

- Supply Truck costs 100MP/15FU (like now)
- Setting up the med truck costs 100MP/5FU (or 0 fuel)
- It takes 200MP/35FU to unlock T1 building options and forward reinforcement point options

(T4 should obviously require either T2 being setup or T1 with the unlock being researched; same with King Tiger)

This would:
- Give OKW healing that's not -that- tied to teching
- Retain teching/sidegrade costs that are comparable to what the other factions are paying for

yea but compare the patch they are different and there are still many bug

Because bugs equal balance and you should always judge balance based on bugs, because they are features now and will never be fixed, its 100% fully intended for volks to lose fausts at certain vet, therefore OKW AT weak, right?

I feel like they need tank hunters obers buildable from hq at the begining, which come with 2 at rifles and can upgrade to double shrecks, their combat stats significantly weaker and vet different from regular obers for reasons. Shreck pios is a joke, and rakketen, while good overall is just not enought to hold on its own even with phausts around and it also killed too easily (bunching, no green cover, 4 crew members).

Or just make obers buildable in HQ, double shreck upgrade after 1truck, 1 lmg upgrade after 2trucks, can have only one; it would open some strat possibilities.

Still, too early to tell for sure, mb its just my first impressions from stomping OKW whole day and in reallity OKW just needs to spam pumas hardcore.

You have to be careful with your words, people here are getting crazy and they'll think because you struggle a bit on the micro of your raketen, the faction is UP.
OKW still has more AT option than any other faction, shreck/pfaust/raketen/puma/jpz4/panther/doctrinal jagtiger.
People here are getting crazy because the shreck blob is gone. They don't assume it but a vast majority of them were only relying on it to play the faction, shreck blob was their bread and butter, terribly good vs tanks and sufficient to hold infantry with a couple of flamnade.
Now they need to learn to play the faction again and they are getting mad because of it. they have to build HMGs, to make choice in their teching, to wisely select which upgrade they want first, shreck or STG, keep munition to use faust and maybe build a PUMA to effectively counter light vehicle play.

Hahaha, I'm so glad I uninstalled this game a week ago.
From what I read now 2 of 2 German factions are unplayable against 3 viable Allied factions.

In the past I'd rely on SP medkit if I went Puma building first. Is this option not viable anymore?

Jump back to quoted post23 Jun 2016, 13:31 PMDomine

The medkit doesn't even heal one squad

Compare that shit to the UKF medkit

It hasn't been changed then.
In that case I don't see the reason why shouldn't you be using it as temporary heal until you get your truck like you did if you went Puma first before the patch?
