Opel blitz is a fuel and munition cache for the price of one cache, why would you prefer a cache?
I dont see how panther is inaccessible when you have to wait longer for a tiger, especially in teamgames. T4 is good with the pwerfer and panther buffs. Just never fir a pwerfer at max range.
Getting a panther costs same or more than tiger,it can't touch infantry and is far more vulnerable..especially now with bazooka infantry.Far better to go pz 4-tiger.how many panthers u see in wehrmacht games these days..very few.In 3 vs 3 and 4 vs 4 maybe.
Opel bonus is lesser than caches far as i remember. |
Is this patch already in effect? |
Opel was greatly buffed for 1v1, making the doctrine even stronger in tourney games and it was already most popular one.
T4 is valid, just not for 1v1. Panthers are fine after the buff.
Tiger got better AI and AT then IS-2.
In short, L2P.
In 1 vs 1 opel would be a lategame luxury,because one would rather always get a cache.Only useful very late game...so no...basically another desperate attempt to force wehr players to use the gilded panther over tiger in team games.Another failed one at that.
Panther is not fine after the buff because its still inaccesible..the fact that i can't use my main stock tank and u consider that 'fine' is what shows ur utter bias.So no u L2P.especially germans.
Tiger is where it has always been..last lategame wehrmacht armor standing. |
Somewhat surprised by this-moderate nerfs to right things m3,aa truck,volley fire.
Good buff on ppsh.
But relic's ostheer hate continues unabated,now opel eliminated.T4 still dead.As does the incredible panther hate across both german factions..desperately trying to make players use the overpriced panther..by first nerfing tiger,now opel and still no use ..lol. |
really barton? the game has just been released and you are already complaining?
I'm dissapointed in you, test the game, for a week or two, then complain about balance, soviets might be OP, OKW might be OP, whatever might be broken and stuff, but it must be tested.
m3 doesn't need more testing unless u were sleeping for the last 2 months.. |
What is airdropped combat group and what is withdraw and refit?
Elite rifleman training i'm guessing is rifles version of troop training? |
competely agree with Barton, more different faction, more difficult to balance,
the only way to counter that is all faction have similar tier structure
HQ: different upgrade
Tier 1: infantry and some support weapon
Tier 2: some support weapon and light vehicle
Tier 3: medium vehicle and medium tank
Tier 4: Heavy tank, tank destoryer and indirect fire vehicle
all tier structure will be linear,player dont really care about the different tier structure of each faction, they do really care if it is good unit.
this will solve almost everything and easy to balance, Relic, however, choose a hard way
This would kill all versatility. |
With grenades,pack howitzers and soviet flame,satchel,don't think this will be a huge problem.Camping is not a necessity for okw after trucks being independent of resource system. |
For pak43 the range nerf basically kills it due to its narrow arc and huge turning time.
Nerf for elefant is more damaging than isu,though it remains to be seen if isu still 1 shots at 70 range. |
Panzergrenadiers received a 15% reduction in incoming fire, making them more durable.
We will soon see if its worth anything..i don't have much hope.maybe if it was 20 percent or 25 percent.But AOE ptofile will help. |
