So I'm having issues with soviets post patch. I play on a regular basis and have a decent ranking, but post patch I have lost a lot of rank going from 243 to 559 in like 10 days. The axis, especially OKW, feel so strong now. What is the soviet meta in 2v2 post patch?

Is it me, og is this rather late compared to other lights vehicles like it. I mean the puma is 0, and you build it. The same goes for the USF mechanized commanders light vehicles and so forth. Shouldn't the same go for the greyhound, seeing as it is an alternative to the stuart?

The mortar needs to be like what Mirage is doing in his mod. So big ups to Mirage for that one.

My way to fix the stuart is to buff its MGs. In real life that little tank could have like 5 or something MGs firing at once. Nerf the main gun to AEC levels and replace stun shot with a smoke canister like the shermans. This would give it some utility that requires micro to either attack or escape.

Rifles ain't as op as you make them out to be, sure they be good, but not gamebreaking unless they have double m1919, which is an atrocity. Double bars are okay. The problem lies more in the 4 man squads and their bunching. I made a post a while back where I suggested to have a sergeant upgrade with an MP40. This 5th man would be attainable through individual squad upgrades for a munition cost after BPH 2. He would not offer much in terms of medium and long range firepower, but would help survivability and short range capabilities. Of course this would warrent something for conscripts as well, but if you buff vanilla inf to be more on par with western front armies, then the whole balancing proces will be easier.

The .50cal needs to be a 5 man squad, it dies way faster due to more precise axis infantry, a flanked .50cal is a dead one, where a MG42/34 actually have a better chances of surviving. Anyhow that''s my oppinion on the .50cal.

Now things that really needs to be fixed in IMO are: forward retreat points, ambient building spawn, Mortar pits(needs to be replaced by a mobile mortar squad) and all the god damn call in meta XD but that's their own topic entirely!

In my opinion the BOFORS is mosty okay(the barrage does need some tweaking), but the problem is the mandatory mortar pit that always supports it. Take that out of the equation, and the bofors is not such a big issue anymore, seeing that most indirect fire or attack ground will at some point force the brit player to brace, and then you move in.

And has received accuracy 0.85, where all the other AT guns have 1, except the USF... It has 1,25 :'(
