I just played a 1v1 with the new mg34 and...it really isn't drastically OP. An American rifle squad sat out of cover and was able to trade fire with it while suppressed without losing a model for 60 seconds. :/ The MG34 suppresses faster, but it's damage still stinks and it still isn't enough to hold back American rifle squads, IMO.

Edit: I think I will stick with specialty doctrine infantry over the MG34 still. Also that range nerf on the AA HT, didn't do shit, thing still was fast enough to get out of harm's way and into range.

They raised the fuel cost on OKW Flak HT to 55.....WHY, the thing sucked, why the cost increase?

there, most played as ostheer, but it's obviously not tracking all the games I've played for any nation

I also discovered theres a place in the world called the sandwich islands

Thanks, I am surprised you have played mainly as Axis, since you seem very pro-Allies on the forums.

I haven't played a lot of 1v1 or 2v2, but when I did it was against Soviets and they almost always led with Maxim spam that I just couldn't beat as the OKW. I try to flank and there is another one, I build the ISG and it misses every other shot and those that hit don't even kill a single model. The ISG is a really RNG-based gun and not a "reliable" counter to Maxim Spams.

The OKW DOES have a mechanics problem, as some have pointed out the Vet levels do make their infantry better in late game. The problem is getting to late game and I do think this is a problem with the faction over-all. In a game where early resource denial can make or break an army it does hurt a very weak early game army like the OKW. I won't go into many of the small details as have already been stated, but the faction does need some work in how it functions.

Right now many people are still getting used to how the OKW runs, both those using the faction and those facing it. The WFA hasn't even been out a month and although some people have become proficient at using and beating the OKW, I really think it will take a few months to get a better feel for the faction in the over all meta (it doesn't help that half the commanders are locked behind Relic's lottery). Only having 3 easily accessible commanders and not a year's worth of patching (like the Soviets and Ostheer) are going to make this faction a frustrating topic. The Americans I think are going to be an interesting topic down the road if the riflemen get some kind of nerf. Just like the OKW I do think the Americans have a different play-style than many people realize and it will take some time for more people to get accustomed to how they function.

So the video overall I think did make some good points, but also was just based off of one player's experiences. The over-reacting to the video I feel is ridiculous. I really doubt Relic is going to watch this video and implement every suggestion he made. So people, CALM DOWN.

Yep just lost another match due to allies who both were using assault grenadiers on the steepes, a wide open map where the grenadiers got chewed up before they even got close. Also they built 2-3 of them and only 1 mg and no mortars. We got pushed back to our starting area within the first 5 minutes. This is another problem with the "Trial" commanders is that people want to test them and have no idea how to effectively use them and end up collapsing the whole team.
