It's a rare commander for a reason.
Get a kublewagon.
unfortunately vet two rifles have AT rifle nades that have almost the range of the Kubel wagon's machine gun. Its not fair just because it is rare |
panzer grens are actually used plenty. They have a different role that people still cant grasp. They win at short and medium range vs everything except shocks at close. You just need to keep them in cover like Sturm pios.
american late game does need help. watching streamers and from personal experience any game after 20 minutes becomes a huge struggle. All German infantry out scales basic rifle men, and at this time they have veterancy on their weapons teams and tanks which are superior. A P4 still goes toe to toe with the Jackson and it cost more. The problem with US late game is that when the populations start to even out and veterancy is gained, there is no way to really "swarm" your opponent to keep the edge. You are forced into unfavorable engagements in order to keep the MP drain going so your opponents can not get their really great stuff out. Really the late game problem is armor though. with no heavy armor, US faction cannot spear head any assault well on even terms. Their tanks are paper thin and still expensive in both population and resources. See, as a faction designed about mobility and having lots of cheap effective tanks, they sure are not cheap, so you cannot gain a numerical advantage which is needed.
if maxim gets nerfed at range, itll be fine, they do not need to buff the mg42 as well and really throw things out of wack
Bazookas still do terrible damage, I never see bazookas because they cost so much and do so little compared to getting an early tank or AT guns.
Pumas still over preforming. they still are an armored car that beats tanks. 1v1 it can still win vs a sherman not even using its aimed shot (which for sure puts the nail in its coffin)
panzer fusilliers need to be nerfed. I have been using them for some time now, they out scale, out preform every infantry in the game. I think the problem is that they retain such huge DPS at long range
US light howizer is pretty terrible, a small price decrease would still see it not used because it simply does not do anything unless it is barraging a building
Volks do not need an AI infantry upgrade just like conscripts do not. They just need a bit of a dps update to put them on par with Grens and conscripts. they do out scale other infantry
Jaeger infantry just like fusiliers need to be toned down
panther needs a fuel price decrease, It is too expensive to be viable very often especially for Ostheer which I'm glad Dane pointed out, the large tech cost really puts a hammer down on using them.
I highly disagree with the kubel wagon being useless
I dont understand how he thinks a jagdP4 is terrible. It has way more armor, plenty of penetration, and has a vet one ability that makes it undetectable on the minimap. Its veterancy is flat out amazing and allows it to outscale the heaviest tanks. A vet three JagdP4 in a 1v1 fight kills a KV2. there are no problems with it.
if anything the SU-85 needs a bit of help.
JagdTiger is ment to be the OKW elephant, It would be pretty unfair if it squad wiped all the time.
ISU still needs to be toned down slightly
Flack half track needs to have its set up time halfed. It takes 3 AT grenades to kill it, So its actually the mobility that needs help
Luchas is ment to be a gap filler unit, not to kill everything. Because OKW can place that truck first, What happens if you run into 2 heavy machine guns? you need the luchas to help deal with weapons teams which is why it is in that tier.

Well he mentioned how Elite troops is not broken, which I disagree on. Is rifle company worse? probably, but by no means does that mean elite troops is fair. |
Ok, just wanted to check |
I have noticed they do not take consistent damage and was wondering if they have armor or the "to hit" modifier that Pgrens have |
Only buy one or two of them as suppliments to your army. They are not effective in a hoard as you pointed out for various reasons |
Early reketenwerfer , keep it supported and into a building until you can get your first panzershreck |
Oh wow, "It killed my stuff nerf nerf nerf!" If you have only seen it once, go to the strategy section first and ask how it works before you make an embarrassing ignorant post. |
what a well written, well thought out and proven post. Props for not flaming, over exaggerating,or lying. You have very great points in this thread noting how the Soviet core design seems to be flawed even in the perspective of intention by Relic. |
Good afternoon relic,
People think i am biased. But this is not true. I ask for a balanced game.
All posters on this forum like to say "L2P".
Well here is the proof
Did it no occur to you that the game is not currently balanced
US players achieveing 80%+ W/L ratios with ratios e.g. of USA 48 to 1 and 96 to 11. These are ridiculous figures
Direct comparison of Von ivan
Example:
3.mTw.VonIvan9511 W/L ratio .896+7 - US forces
3.mTw.VonIvan1 W/L ratio .727+4 - OKW
mTw.VonIvan1009165 W/L ratio .85+9 Soviets
mTw.VonIvan1009165 .772 - OH
OKW and OH far lower.
Cant count the number of threads addressing balance issues with Soviet and US forces. Why is this never fixed. To bring this to par.
Current issues:
Early game:
Maxim Spam
US AA truck
USA BAR blob
M3/Penal/Guards
Lack of OKW AT options/effectiveness
OH grens sucking bad vs Rifleman
OH severe lack of options vs USA
Mid to late
Lack of OKW AT options/effectiveness
T-34 85 call in - OP
Panther sucking bad and being ridiculously expensive
IS2 - post buff
ISU152
wow what a bias post, Did you ever take a stats course or have to learn how to do a technical report? You just posted a number without knowing its meaning. VonIvan plays US faction WAY more than OKW. It has to do with he loves the faction and there are always like 80& axis to 20% allies players on so it takes a much longer time to find a game. Up until recently in the march deployment a similar situation also existed with Sovs ans Ostheer. |
