Making the faction more symmetrical has brought balance to the game but I really did enjoy OKW in its early stage because of how fun it was to play, it was in no way competitive or fair for tournament play or anything but with friends I loved playing against them. UNpredictable. Having to deal with big pushes and the unstoppable KT while panicking frantically was an experience all right. Reminds me a lot of the Battle of the Bulge film (1965)
Vet differences make both of them equally or more durable actually.
Bear in mind that it doesn't matter how many rifles there are, but the final squad DPS. For example grens and volks have almost the same DPS despite having different number of men in squad, therefore volks are considerably superior for only 10 more mp, however they fall short with veterance and upgrades taken into consideration.
Does the Stg44 upgrade not shift things into the Volks favour? I thought it might have, may be mistaken however
seems odd that they are almost equivalent to obers, I mean same strength as riflemen would make most sense to me and make it more symmetrical at least for allied factions, adding flamethrower for improved close range dps and anti building seems good enough on top of that. I haven't played with/against them yet so I don't really know though, just an impression
M24 Chaffee for US with the cavalry m3 half track group from AA would be cool with some off map smoke or something, sort of Bridge at Remagen inspired.
Brits/USF/OKW could use some love but vanilla factions are done with really I think
Also the fact that relic is relic im pretty sure they mixed up defensive and offensive.
Typical Relic incompetence, followed up by total communications blackout so no-one knows what's going on, fueling speculation which in turn results in many, many people being annoyed and very, very confused. At least they're consistent
they should like use twitter to communicate with the community to explain things clearly, but that makes too much sense. Also I got signed in ok with another e-mail I have, worked fine. went in-game - no notifications...
