Try using paks offensively.Ur saying ostheer is condemned to play only defensively till tiger.
The so called 'tank -hunter' panther has useless range it can't utilize on attack due to need for spotter..poor accuracy especially on move.And even if it actually flanked it ,its utterly poor DPS won't kill fast.Add to that it has to flee from the first AT gun and even harassed by couple bazookas into backtracking.This 1 tank tiger ostheer endgame meta has been going on since march and frankly its becoming extremely boring.Its even worse now that elfant is dead and buried.
completely agree. |
^the at gun isnt that bad.
1. RNG? i have had the at gun do pretty good against all medium wehr armor
2.cant comment too much on it because i dont play 1v1. but the same issues would effect any of the at guns.
3.agree. i think swapping ht and at gun is the answer.
4.rng again
5.effects all at guns. paks get one shotted by is-2 all the time. zis get one shotted all the time by tiger. |
^^ but cons should never be equal to gren dps? t0 and six man size is their advantage, or, was? i think they could use better mid range accuracy and maybe a bit of a durability boost. |
USF do not have any ZiS guns and this is where stug-e is problem.
at gun and half track switch makes the most sense. no idea why at gun is in t3, just comes out way too late unless you skip to t3, which screws you over because of no fast op ht. |
i hope for a couple new wehr commanders at least, another one with tiger/smoke combo would be nice, considering tiger is the only good wehr armor atm. im disappointed that their efforts went into single player, i would really like to see multiplayer balanced and the bugs worked out, there are alot of issues atm with bugs/freezes. |
German campaigns would be awfully depressing. "Hold out while you get bombed and shelled every day. Fight until you lose, again and again, and eventually watch all your men die in Berlin no matter how hard you try"
Alternatively: "Welcome to Russia. You freeze. The end"
... 1939-1942 the germans kicked everyones ass. allied fanboys will complain about anything... |
if e8 stays at 135 fuel, panther and p4(esp okw call in) need some serious reworking. |
And yet you stand by your decision that soviet balance should hang on commanders call in infantry purely?
I did see genuine thought and I know OZ posts constructively, but this statement baffles me. It's the absolute worst part of COH for me, the reliance on commanders. I WANT to play with silly, quirky mad commanders like armoured assault. You know why I can't do that? Because of people like OZ.
A race should not be balanced around the shit it gets as DLC. Advanced Warfare doctrine, locked behind the war spoils system is enough evidence of that. It's not cool, not fair and not enjoyable.
And if you are honestly telling me Grenadier blobs are fine for regular players, then sure, great, I'll buy that.
For a noob like me, your statements are baffling. "Don't know how to play their army" and "Maxims are easy wins". They are not. Maxims die to grenadier blobs. The counter to a blob dies. Yeah.
I want to understand your thought process. I really do. But its nice to see you ignored all the points in my post, and didn't provide any counter arguements. Good discussion.
you expect wehr to be completely dependent on tiger doc, but, its not fine when sovs have to choose out of all their over performing call-ins? maybe some of the commanders have been designed for team games and not so much 1v1 IE ARMORED ASSAULT. If i go is-2 4v4 i use armoured assault and it works very well. i dont think that is oz's fault that it doesn't fair so well in 1v1.
to let you know oz was pro soviet and katitof's bestest friend for a long time. then he played germans. |
2 mortars or 2 snipers.
Nothing more is needed.
When you have LMGs you can a-move with grens, gunner will always be sniped.
Its no rocket science and its effective since the maxim spam exists.
Being stuck in denial about snipers or mortars and refusal to make them doesn't make them any less of a hardcounter.
most people are arguing the maxim vs okw. dont know why you are going off about wehr counters. o wait, i know, you DONT want to talk about maxim vs okw, it will lead to the maxim needing nerfs. |
maxims need to die easier and have a price increase if you soviet "players" want the maxim to stay the way it is. thats facts. no one gives a shit what the top 1v1 players say really. no one plays 1v1. maxim spam is a huge problem in team games. |
