UKF got beat with the nerf hammer (again).

Seriously? This used to be a fun faction before the winter patch last year and now its been neutered pretty badly considering the increases to pop, weird Bren nerf, and the neutering of the call in heavies particularly the Crocodile. They get these nerfs and they still retain their major weaknesses like no snare for infantry, no mobile artillery or smoke, no good CQB units with out a doctrine. UKF now sucks worse than USF.

I am a USF player and so what do you want to USF be the worst dont you want balance. You only thing you care is your main faction british and not other factions you know i am GLAD they finally nerfed the OP thigns on UKF

I play USF more than any other faction myself and they are finally in a decent spot now. I used to enjoy Brits until the last two patches, mainly this last one. Upping rhe pop on their units so they can't build anything late game, nerfing the Crocodile repeatedly because it can actually kill Axis units! The horror! The pop count increases for all factions were unneeded and uncalled for accross the board but they impacted UKF the most.

I think they need to give UKF infantry Sections access to smoke with the grenade side tech like the way USF used to be because as it stands now OST will shut you down hard with their T0, insta-pin MG42s and you can't do much about it until teching to the platoon CP but by then its often too late as they've already locked down their strategic points on the map while their MGs are vetted up and their panzerfausts are unlocked so you can forget about using the WASP UC.

Correct me if I'm wrong but commandos feel almost required now and that's just so you can abuse the cheese camo-nade strat. That is until OKW get obers with IR's or an IR HT then its simply GG.

I've not played enough this patch to fully appreciate the nerfs/buffs(?) but off the bat I struggle a hell of a lot more in infantry engagements.

Late games really show the UKF weakness however, so much yellow cover that obers go toe to toe with an MG and win without so much as a sniff of suppression, or volks walk up to it and flame nade it, your crom/FF/Cent get penned by AT guns consistently and 1 faust can ruin your day, then the FF fails to pen but if you go AT guns to up your chances, Stuka/Werfer with flares/searchlight says hi.

It's relentless, you're always on the back foot trying to counter a counter that is then countered by something that.. has no counter!

Least this is my recent exp from 3v3 games.

Its no secret that Brits are in a difficult spot for two main reasons; their poor design that creates large holes in its capabilities and having a number of junk/poorly performing units.

Fixing the design to plug the holes will be a tricky one and will require a good deal of rework.

Fixing the poorly performing units however, will go a long way towards giving the Brits more options and should be the first place to start. Get the full roster up to par and then we can think about possible changes options.

Has anyone else noticed friggen Grens out preforming Infantry Sections? Wehrmacht's budget unit is killing a much more expensive unit and one that UKF depends on. Wehraboo whinning destroyed a once fun faction, sad.

Hold on for a second. Does it mean you are trying to justify P2W?
