These MoD guys always pround posting

but we lost

My point is how common, and devastating a simple JPIV in combination with indirect fire is, too effective for cost.

You make it sound like I have limited experience in this game. I am telling you from a player who uses the JPIV regularly that it is too good. It is too easy to get vet with, and at high vet it is far too effective.

Please calculate me why its cost effective, show me the numbers and compare the DPS to SU85, Jacksons etc. It's on par, its just has higher survivability because OKW can't press out tanks every time you lose them.

You might be experienced in 4vs4, but in 1vs1 & 2vs2 you can perfectly flank, smoke & catch JP4 out of position, since maps are not bottlenecks like in all the 3vs3+ fun modes. Double AT guns shut down every JP4 play and no, they are not instantly countered by a Panzerwerfer or Stuka because again its not 4vs4.

Couple of things here. You tire me with your fan boy comments. You also cannot use attack ground, as was already pointed out, because the JT will fire at 60 range, you must close to 40, and then when you do he continues to back up since you have to stop to use attack ground.

All theorycrafting aside, I ONLY give advices I actually used in the game. 60 Range only works with a spotter and the problem you describe only concerns medium tanks, which are NOT the counter for the JP4.
I use always double AT guns, and have destroyed countless cloaked JP4's in that way. If you don't manage to do that, its not my problem I'm perfectly capable doing this and so is every other player then.

Overperforming units do not get a pass because the faction is weak.

And by what do you define overperforming? To use this terms you need to do calculations which then prove your point. I don't use the word therefore. Its lethal to tanks and weak to its counters (At guns), while costing a respectable amount of resources and opportunity costs due teching. No over performance here.

How do you hunt down an invisible tank in a faction with the most handheld AT, forward retreat points, and the cheapest and also cloakable AT guns again?

You don't need always to destroy tanks in order to counter them. All you handheld at and raketenwerfer won't do anything against 2 at guns. Keeping units at bay or shut their play down means to counter.

JT cloak is stupid as it is implemented. I like the mechanic, but the recloak rate is crazy fast. It is already extremely hard to hit (small target size), has amazing vet, can spot for itself, is relatively fast cloaked, and is available very early. The damage bonus at vet 5 is outright stupid, it already fires ridiculously quickly at that point and with the bonus damage it nullifies everything on wheels/treads. It should receive high accuracy and penetration out of cloak at vet 5.

It's one of the units that hasn't been nerfed into the ground yet. Which still keeps the stats and bonuses relic once had in mind for OKW with their vet 5 system. In addition its an important crutch right now and it needs all the survivability it has right now, since spending 135 fuel in mid game also means high opportunity costs, since you can not tech for obers or get any anti infantry vehicles out soon. Hence its survivability needs to be higher than the tank destroyers of other factions, because OKW can't pump them out like other factions.

Competitive modes play 50%. Large team games another 50%.

I play all modes. 100 % for me

If you nerf riflemans, you simply again remove USF from game.

The vet 3 changes were made in order to decrease mp bleed of rifles in late game. There are 2 Solutions for this, either you reduce this vet bonuses further, so Riflemen don't enter the matrix at vet 3. Or you can give decreased reinforce costs on vet 3 as a bonus.

And play more? Can you explain this my wife and childrens? I will very grateful to you.

True. But then again why do you post in balance forums were you game knowledge is rather limited? Strategy sections offers more for you here.

The bad news is that this is probably all you will get for OKW.
While its confirmed that USF get 2 additional new commanders



After 1 1/2 years of waiting for new OKW content I'm more than just disappointed.
