And you're going by three Steam forum posts?
Sure, I don't view Steam forum posts as lesser than CoH2.org/GR.org posts.
Let's see:
CoH2: You have lost all of my love!
Stunned : Everyone is going OKW
Don't play allies for now.
They're very active and emotional at moment which reveals a lot about the state of CoH2, or at least the latest patch.
Let's look at CoH2.org: Not quite as dramatic but similar points being made.
Most are expressing discontentment over the latest balance changes.
OKW is OP...and Brits are nerfed too heavily... some reporting a loss in FPS.
In 3v3 its just ridiculous how overpowered OKW is at the moment. I've played two rounds back to back today where the axis team got out kingtigers at MINUTE 12."
Wow.
I don't understand the UKF nerfs. Maybe a slight nerf here and there would be good, but they have just decimated the Croc and Churchill. IS's suck now, the heavy armor sucks now, its basically just a shittier Russia now with garbage emplacements.
Infantry sections are now the crappest infantry in the game.
this is the biggest issue, along with zero indirect fire
The churchill nerfs were completely uncalled for after the previous nerfs. The vet nerf for croc made sense. But then you've got sextons, firefly amd firefly tulips completely untouched.
When making changes to a faction, every unit in said faction needs to be briefly looked over.
Exactly !
Ah. I feel a bit nostalgic reading through the forums... Was anyone else there back in the CoH- OF days when Brit players were constantly hated by the large portion of the community? Mainly, they broke 2v2 and were painful to play against.
In the end, I feel that Relic nerfed them too heavily... I feel Relic made faction-design flaws that they've carried over from CoH1 into CoH2 that are, once again, frustrating the community.

I'm not trying to flame Relic. They've constructed some great RTS games that have given us all a tremendous amount of joy (and tears, lol).
It would be just wonderful if they could learn from past mishaps and make better quality balance changes... RTS games like CoH are a dying breed and I want CoH2 to be the balanced masterpiece that it deserves to be.
