Pretty good post.

What I find out of most posts on this forum and by extension Official forums (this happened for WoT too) is that most players have no idea what they want from the game, it often works like one unit has been unreliable in a game and people complain about it, either that or they get rolled over by a unit and then complain.

If there isn't any reasoning behind the OP that encompasses several reasons, its usually a waste of time.

Unfortunately, bias and fanboyism tends to make the really good posts (like yours) get turned into relative noise because its a lot easier to post on something that's definite and polar than something that requires you to think

Just a few replies to your OP

1. Vet 1 cap point is really useful, it can win or save games sometimes
2. I'd agree with pathing of vehicles being terrible, infantry is passable though.
3. Relic really do need to do side armour, not sure about angling though because unlike MOW, you don't have direct fire controls so relying on AI to do that will open another can of worms.
4. Yes to custom hotkeys
5. More sidegrades needed, yes, similar to VCoH

But yeah, I feel relic worry too much about the stats to the point where they only look at the stats, rather than focus on faction design during balancing. That has been apparent in most of the recent patches tbh.

Play Sovs, balanced challenging game where both you and your opponent will have fun

OKW : need a infantry buff, may be a fuel buff but it does not need any tank buff, you still have better tanks in the game, and with a competent Osth mate, you can easily bring the infamous tanks

USF : Sure take smoke from them, give osth the ability to nullify everything with sniper and mg42.
You can't compare USF riflemens and Soviet conscript, Soviet are early infantry, are powerfull in numbers, but lack any late game potential(countered by the soviet design of call-in infantry specialist, it suck hard). USF riflemens ARE THE ONLY LINE INFANTRY of the usf, nerf riflemens, remove smoke, and you will se RE spam again.

UKF :Take back AT sniper, why not make a auto surrender versus werh in that case ? Sniper is a "forced to produce " unit versus Osth to play the sniper war. IS cost reduction was necessary, you couldn't field more than 2 (if not more than one) because of the bleed.


Osth need help and redisign, as OKW need it too. BUT IT DOES NOT REQUIRE A ALLIED NERF !


You know what, You saw Soviet as the most balanced faction because it's the weakest faction, I don't know about 1v1, but in 2v2 (classed a competitive too by lelic), soviet are support faction, forced to go t70/ katyoush and let the "real" factions field potent battle tanks.


Osth should be redisign to be close to UKF, OKW should be redisign to have potent base infantry like any other factions.

But please stop the nerf allies.

Lelic make this game company of blobs, company of "you got one line infantry, you don't need combined arms beside ATG (USF and UKF)" vs "Company of useless infantry that need Combined arms to hold the line".


Poorest design.

Most of my posts were relating to the 1v1 scene. But anyway I'll go through it

1. Yeah OKW has the best tanks but they don't really come out because they get pushed off the map, by the time they are able to field those tanks, the counters are well out already.
2. Why should Ost be redesigned when its doing reasonably against Sovs and USF. It's UKF which is the new faction that should undertake major redesigns if there are design issues, not Ost.
3. No, getting rid of smoke is not the end all when it comes to MG42s, there's something called flanking unless if that's too hard for you, then by all means spam smoke in front of the MG42s. LTs and captains should get smoke if its needed so much rather than Rifles IMO. Snipers are another problem but USF does have a few counters it can bring out in 4-5 minutes if the Ost player is spamming MGs too.
4. UKF bleed was the thing that stops UKF from pushing out and being too aggressive earlygame. And yet even this was still possible prior to the buff as Aimstrong had made clear in OCF.
5. The alternative to snipers can be the one used in VCoH where an infantry unit gets a sniper rifle that can snipe for munis. Either way, the AT ability that the sniper currently has is pretty bullshit IMO.

Soviets are not weak, they are anything but weak, they are really strong earlygame, (conscripts are still sturdy units at all stages of the game) have good midgame control and have strong units endgame too, so i don't get where you're getting it from. Of course, its not as easy as USF and UKF but they are still a strong faction. Maybe its not as strong compared to USF and UKF in 2v2, but its still really strong in the 1v1 scene.

Leave him he never played vs a good wermaht player thet spam mgs in biuldings ... even smoke wont help there ...

Name one map where you don't have enough shotblockers to deal with mgs in buildings, Semois, Ango, you had ppl killing mgs in vcoh all day long. Ditto for Langres.

The only 1v1 map I see has problems is Minsk Pocket although I never play that map because its a terrible, boring 1v1 map which is too big and too linear.

ye but the 25mins of suffering makes it worth when the first salvo hits directly in the blob

Bahahahaha yes It would be glorious :3
