Holy shit is Sittard going to be campy, demo the bridges and dig in boys!

@Alex

Seriously this again? I am only going to answer you once because I am not going down this rabbit hole again.

If you can play a full game without teching until IS-2 hats off to you. I have not managed to not field a tank for 15 minutes as Soviet against OKW since I will get destroyed by their infantry.

Sturms repair quickly, but you also get a free repair point with super fast repairs as a perk not a cost! That is a difference in factions, and whether you acknowledge it or not, it makes the units function differently.

So you are concerned about KT vs Jackson, but you seem really upset about the IS-2 KT match up, which is it, you don't get both. If you see an American player you don't have to get a KT, in fact you probably shouldn't. Maybe, gonna sound crazy, you should change your build order to defeat your opponent instead of relying on one super tank to destroy whole armies.

Please don't respond to this, I will not respond to yours.

The repair point pioneers are not Sturm pioneers in repair rate. Sturms DO repair faster because you can't make bunches of them to repair like the other factions can. And your first tech building as Soviets is free thanks to starting resources so going T2 and T1 or just T2 + Cons and call in infantry really isn't hard to do for IS2's.

Shocks, maxims, and what not + con spam can cause OKW huge issues due to OKW's lack of support weapons. Really isn't that hard to kill their trucks either.

I'm not concerned about the KT versus the Jackson, I'm concerned about why it needed a armor reduction to bring it down to the IS2's level when the only Axis TD's that can do over 200 damage to tanks with that high a penetration chance are Super Heavy ones.

The IS2 versus KT match up was already easy enough for Soviets (Not unbalanced mind you), the KT isn't some magical beast tank. It's very slow compared to the IS2.

And glad to see you refusing to discuss things because ~reasons~.

Let's face it. You're a USF fanboy. Nothing wrong with that in and of itself but stop trying to seem objective.

Under the guise of nerfing blobs, Lelic just nerfed OKW instead, leaving the second most popular blob (rifles with bars or that defensive stance BS/ paras) completely untouched.

Before we had USF dominate early and suck late vs. OKW. Now OKW got nerfed across the board and USF got a massive buff to late game.

This isn't going to create balance in the same way that giving Alex a keyboard doesn't create... well, anything useful.

How about you make a passing attempt to discuss instead of shitposting about me?

you said there is no point for spending 400MP when you can spend less and now you are calling Falls for 440...

As for STGs, they are amazing. Make Obers into LMG Grens at long range and Shocks at close range. I belive you can have both.

They nerfed the StG's DPS. And Fallsch are 440 but they A. Don't require teching B. Don't need munitions to upgrade their weapons and C. Have a snare.

At max range now the IR StG will be less than the LMG Grens at long range.

And how you want to do this since Fusilier vs Rifles at close range it's almost 50/50 and Jaegers won't stand agasint them at close range unless Rifles are damaged?
They have a chance when Fighting at long range but when Rifles caught you around the corner only Obers can kill them.
Obers can melt Rifles without LMG at any range. No other infantry below 400 can do that.


Outisde of the cover for both sides, 2 Rifles vs 1 Obers will lead us to 1 model of Rifle standing and dead Obers but this involves much RNG.

Dude the issue here isn't that the new Obers are shit (because they are not!), it's just that they are fairly costly when you can make units that do more than kill infantry while still being VERY GOOD at killing infantry.

JLI and Fallsch can both spawn from buildings, JLI have sprint and can sight for you while cloaking, Fallsch do a buttload of DPS at all ranges and have a snare that OKW needs badly, Fuss are a great meat shield that's cheap and effective while having flares. The G43 makes them even better.

Obers should have just had the LMG removed completely (because seriously fuck LMGs), and been given 2 regular StG's and a cost of like 340 MP, IR StG's remain the same. Instead we got the LMG nerfed and move to an upgrade, and the IR StG nerfed for ~reasons~ despite being 30 muni more expensive than the LMG.

So now the goalposts have been moved to 400MP and 60 munitions vs 280MP and 140 munitions? Why did you not say 280MP and 140 munitions then?

Even with these new criteria the results are:

At short range obers do 147% the dps that rifles with 2x1919s do to obers (411MP and 205MU equivalent in said rifles)

Medium range: 151% (421MP and 211 MU)

Long range: 158.6% (444MP and 222MU)

So even taking into account OKW 80% muni income, obers still come out on top now. USF have to spend almost twice as much on muni 140 MU vs 60/0.8 (75) to deal roughly 66% of the damage to obers as obers do to them. I don't see the problem here, obers are still going to bleed those rifles as they should. How it was before was over the top.

That's great, and I never said Obers were worse. But even if they are still better I don't really care because the cost efficiency isn't were I need it to be to justify getting them and then spending munitions on them when I can do the same thing with my call in infantry.

Scavenge, Luft, and Breakthrough are all fairly good doctrines, not really any reason not to just skip Obers can get out more utility focused infantry that help fill holes in your ability gaps.
