OKW Panzer Commander: a completely useless ability that is far over priced for what its worth.

anyone who is even remotely paying attention still has 20 min to react to the ability before the shells hit

the range bonus is hardly noticeable if at all. (does give sight increase right or am i trippin?)

i suggest that a slight decrease in price per usage, and decrease in time it takes for shells to hit the ground, you know, where you can possibly destroy an AT gun if the player isnt paying attention!?

a sight increase of lets say 15-20? after all you are giving up the AI/AA ability of the tank.


we all know the panther is under performing, i think the reason being is not exactly its AT ability, but the fact that allied infantry is able to blindly rush it with no punishment at all, and givin how this game has evolved, panthers are just terrible. now take the comet, EXCELLENT AT capabilities, but that doesnt make it OP, its AI is makes it a great tank, the fact that its able to punish with squad wipes often. Therefore being able to defend itself with little or no support. i can say the same with many other allied tanks. i find it frustrating that most, if not all allied tanks can be fielded before a panther, and have a devastating impact on vetted infantry.


2 comets > 2 panthers any day of the week.
2 croms > 2 panzer 4s any day of the week.

a huge difference in "shock" value as well.

im on day 18 in a row of working with no days off. that being said, any illiteracy or lack of common knowledge can be blamed on that..

The commander is only good for the panther from what i've experienced and I find the extra sight range really helps.

If you are talking about the call down artillery heavy artillery as this has only a few purposes even on other commanders, area denial and hulled down positions such as houses emplacements etc.

As for the OKW panther underpreforming? i don't think it is, as for Ostheer panther? maybe, but that is because they don't scale as well as OKW.

Panzer 4s are crippled with the commander upgrade because they aren't doing the job that they'd usually do and that is be the extra meat and push for infantry pushes.

A panther is meant to take on armoured unlike the P4. however it does have some infantry support involved.
and if you want something really dedicated to hurting armour then you get a JP4.

If you let your opponent even get two comets out well that is your own problem for letting them.

A cromwell vs P4 is something on it's own and can swing both ways, it depends a lot on the engagement.

And for you to blame something on playing the game strait just shows us that you need a break. take a breather man. It's just a game, and it's going to screw you over as much as the enemy.

There is a lot they had and are doing wrong, and there are a lot of things they have done right.


As a company that wants to make money i think they had done some stuff to help "rake in the dough".

As a company that wanted to improve the game, they had tried, they tried listening to the community they tried to make the game balanced, in their own way i guess. However there were some instances that the behaviour was questionable.
They had continuously added things that the community screamed for. however they played it to safe and went reclusive everytime they were screamed at.
Their opinion on the people that made the community from what i've been told seem questionable at best. I feel like they should have just ignored the feelings of those people who seem the loudest with those negative responses.

What i'd've wanted to see more of was more theatre of war stuff, more scenarios for both single and co-operative play. Instead of focusing so hard on the multiplayer aspect.
Also i'd like to see them show more recognition to those who actually created content into the game and give them credit. weather it be a decal or an ingame skin or something.

I'd like them to fix more major flaws then minor ones in the game.


In the end i feel like they took things to personal and got disgruntled with how they were treated, instead of looking for the people that actually best represent the player base.


But this is just my opinion on things, I like to keep a non-biased view point on everything because to me it's just a game i enjoy. i'd love this game to go places and become great. because they made this game a good game and i feel like this game is the game for me.

Using raketen is not a rocket science, its just constantly hitting ground when its supposed to hit something.

Rocket science, LUL

IF you are constantly missing with it then there must be something wrong, how are you setting it up? are you just a moving it, attack target.

because you do want to set it up closer about half way into your ark or fire.

also if it is hitting the ground constantly then you aren't really making up for the elevation in which the tank or vehicle are sitting on.

I not trying to sound condescending or anything i just want to say is that there are a lot more variables to watch out for when using a raketen compared to other AT weapons, but the strength is that you can get the raketen close enough to deal an insane amount of damage.

and when you got a pair of them you can get two volleys off both and take out almost any vehicle more-so if you actually preserve it's vet. as we all probably know.

I play a lot of games as OKW so if you want to see some good games where i utilize the raketen well i can post some for those who are willing.

I am not that good but i'm not bad either.

Thanks for the solid reply. I guess i was on full tilt for no reason. I never thought of getting a panther. I'll also try to keep note on what is going on better.

Shreks are fine, plus there is really no need to get shreks on the sturm pio since it will only hinder it. you are better off with a flamer or a sweeper on a sturm.

a raketen or two will do wonders until you either get a puma for light vehicles or medium armour.

If you are having a hard time using a raketen then you need to learn how to use them properly. as it's not hard to get some success out of them even if they just push off a tank it'd doing it's job.
