You do have a point. But they will be mostly addressed in the upcoming patch.
Regardless, I don't get the reason for this hysteric "collective dickery". The guy is just voicing his opinions, even if it's not structured well or that detailed.
At this point are you really surprised that anyone calling for actual balance in this forum is being picked on by allied fanboys? They do not want balance, they want to keep the status quo that is easy wins for allies. |
Try out 1v1 and you can see that they aren't that "massively" underperformed. The things that make them feels underperformed would be either call-ins cheese (Both sides have this, just that the Allies have more varieties) or in the case of larger team games, more effective indirect-fire weaponry (Due to smaller squad size of Axis infantries + more variety of options for Allies in indirect-fire). Basically, that's it, actually. Allies' blobs can be control by MGs, if only there weren't so many mortars and arties lying around.
Nope balanced allied blobs just walk over your supported MG. A rifle terminator squad deals with 2 enemy squads easily, you know its balanced and shit. |
It would still require 8CP to be build so it could not come any sooner than now but only at the same speed or later.
The thing is that the game is balanced around 1 v 1 where the land mattress is no big problem. If a Brit goes LM he won't have enough fuel for tanks and have the armor disadvantage.
In team games you have a mate to compensate for that. The Brit can bunker in with a mortar pit + bofors to lock down 2 VPs and then barrage the hell out of everything with multiple land mattresses.
All of you have to keep in mind that Germans are much more vulnerable to Allied arty because of the following reasons:
Ostheer:
- Small Troops (Only 4 men for all squads besides Osttruppen)
- The faction relies heavily on its superior support weapons in pair with defensive gameplay: Mortars, MG42, PaKs, are all countered by artillery.
OKW:
- Designed around frontline HQs that get destroyed with only few LM barrages
- Extremely high costs for armor -> No AT capabilities without Raketenwerfers that get easily wiped with the LM.
Meanwhile allied troops (beside Brits) don't face the danger of full wipes with artillery that much. Five/Six men squads usually guarantee one or two survivors even after a critical hit. Also Mortar Pits have a huge range and can only be effectively countered by LeIGs which are wiped by LM barrages.
Don't nerf the LM into a useless state. But reduce the barrage duration and rockets. Panzerwerfer and Stuka have one single barrage whereas the Land Mattress has 30 rockets with a barrage that lasts about 10 seconds. You can't retreat your troops without the high risk of getting wiped while on retreat. Not speaking about PaKs that cannot retreat and die almost 100% because of the huge area of effect the LM has.
The LM commander is just too good. The commandos can wipe the floor with everything that is left after a LM barrage because they can spawn instantly at any building which is stupid. Make commandos appear from the glider just like the ones in other doctrines.
The LM commander is a pure anti Ost commander. Pesky MG 42 in a house? Here Flamethrowers for no Reason. Cant get yolowipes? Here have some op as fuck CQC commandos (must be close range because you know Allies have to dominate those engagements) with the most bullshit grenade in the game. What Ostplayer is not confined to his base yet? Here easy wipe machine to kill all the support weapons in one go. Not as braindead as SimCity but a strong contender. |
Are you serious? Then use infantry to kills his AT blobs, don't be a noob. Rifles with zooks or Piats cant do crap vs axis men with that. Don't fight anti tank with TANKS.......
Punish his AT blob with troops, rifles without BARS or 30 cals, are fucked
This is the biggest fucking bullshit. Allied infantry even with AT still DESTROYS dedicated Axis AI troops. But hey allied fanboys, am I right? |
Every new day, new nerf allies topic?
You know people can see you shilling for allies since 2013? |
while not costing the brit player time and manpower, that's the point.
why do so few people see that
Because it would kill the Axis OP meme and all those allied fanboys cant have that. |
AHAHAHA, no next please. |
British tanks are op as fuck, more news at 11! |
You are validating the claims stated by the OP by replying to this thread.
No it does not. Calling someone out on their bullshit is not validating them it is taking away the validity of their complaint. |
not with brits
Ohh yeah sorry forgot, Brits can still yoloskill everyone with 2 apm. |
