Its easy, just play allies if you want for ez win. The "physics" here makes moving target harder to hit, its much more noticeable when you're playing axis for some reason.
I only now rely on combined arms on playing OST. Blobbing will get u nowhere because of how bad their infantry is. Combined arms meaning microing everything perfectly.
I finish most my games with only T3 with the exception when I feel like to play a tiger and I consider that throwing.
T4 units like the panther,brum even if its buffed is not worth it
Well yeah, i mean if you look at tourny records Allies have won way more than 75% of games, for a reason.
But they dont want to hear that, hence the scrap yard. |

So, just come back to the game...
Playing Allies is a laugh and way too easy, especially in smaller games.
Axis is still a total cluster fuck and stress feast.
I mean the Pathfinder and Brit headshot proc alone is totally mental, when the axis have to pay 45-90 munis and specific commanders for the same privilege vs LARGER squads....
The USF pak howitzer i dont think ive ever seen its auto-fire miss unless its target retreated.
Hell I just had a game where my StuG missed a T-70 4 times in a row, while it ran down 2 squads of retreating P-grens, not missing a single shot while moving at 50mph. While my StuG just misses and misses WTF is that about?
I mean does anyone really think this is balanced? Ill throw an olive branch, Asymmetrical balance is clearly beyond these devs.... start to copy and paste stats, lets see how it goes. At least on certian units like the Lieg+USF Pak. |
|
Hey guys. So just come back to the game, to torture myself with shit balance and even worse RNG,
But on top of this ive encountered an error twice now (out of like 20 games, so we'll say 10%)
Where the game screen goes black, and I get a windows popup saying "Failed to create dump file". As the game totally crashes.
Anyone else had this? |
maybe it can't face the gun forward
Makes it easier to run away while nailing and suppressing the shreks or raketens you have as your only counter at 5 mins.
Again, clone the stats on the OKW HT and lets watch the tears flow. |
|
Why does this not have a setup time? At least before it can apply suppression. I dont mind it moving and killing everything, But moving and suppressing WHILE killing everything, at the 5min mark... especially killing its only early game counter? Come on.... The OKW counterpart sends postcards informing the enemy of what its about to do.
Id rather the OKW HT lose its smoke and be able to fire on the move and surpress just as easily... who wouldnt? its fkin nuts.
No idea how this has skipped past the balance hammer for so many years now. |
Can usf get a sniper if the pak howitzer gets nerfed?
Or give the Ost a gun that 1 shots squads like the Pak does? A sniper you can retreat from, the Pak you just gotta pray that the blast radius and doesnt insta-kill your squad.
Also this would screw OKW. |
|
Back on topic? |
|
Sure, fix it vs aircraft (thats actually a bug not an underperformance). But also reduce its ability to insta-wipe infantry. = Tadaaa fixed |
|
Is this still a thing? Me and Karziel have won most of our recent 2v2's, but our stats say we're at -6.
Ermm Wtf? We've won the last 3, only lost 1 in the last 4 weeks, and had 1 drop hacker in the last week.
The hell is going on? |
|
I mean, all it needs is grens to have a 5-man squad, and cost 280. Gives them a new dynamic that also prevent them from being too easily wiped mid-late game.
OR... Make the Squad leader upgrade a stock upgrade. So they pay 60 munis for either a LMG42 (and stay 4man), or a 5th man and G43's.
When you think the USf and UKF get 2x LMG's per squad and 5 man squads, its not unreasonable. |
I mean, theres a lot of arguments in here like "Penals are the counterpart to P-Grens". But... think about it, the squad wipe potential is vastly different to output...
One mine = half a OST squad dead, = retreat.
2 snipers, and you have to run.
1 mortar shell or nade can easily wipe a squad...
Late game, a dozer sherman/HE round sherman, Scott, Pakhowitzer, Brit Centaur or even a IS2 can easily AND QUICKLY 1 shot a vet 3 gren squad....
As for a 5-6 man squad that aint gonna happen unless they position clump.
If you compensated cost for the 5th man of a gren squad, it would be fine. The only reason anyone would oppose that is either they dont play the game, or they're enjoying their allied win spree. (which trust me, ive done before, im not proud of it, was to prove a point). |
