It would be so helpful if hmgs/support weapons wouldn't auto set up!

Have you found a solution? Can you share if you did?

And OKW can afford double leigs, they’ve been able to afford it ever since it could pin units.

Before leigs costed 320 manpower if I'm not mistaken, two of them would be 640 manpower. With less manpower you could field two heavy mortars that would rek leigs or two regular mortars. In the live patch leigs are cheaper yes but I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels that leigs lack AoE or range but the allies equivalent, pack howitzer, does wipes like it's nobody business and gets one extra fire more that if you are lucky enough you can hit a low health tank can kill it...

Broken strats like IS spam?

If I said spam I'm sorry, I meant that what is broken about IS is the fact that after you get bolster + brens the axis player loses all hope to win infantry engagements even hmgs can't stop them which I assume should be the logical counter to infantry...

I mean, you guys were crying about my 17 pounder.

First I don't think I cry about anything, I like to think I'm just pointing facts. Secondly, did I talk about the 17 pounder? If you want I can make a thread on how a non doc long range at gun get's self spotting flares compating to the pak 43 that is doctrinal, dies to a wind breeze and doesnt get any flare to self spot.

I feel a lot of the threads, especially regarding balance, are based on emotion

I do agree some players are emotional but again I think I'm just pointing out facts.

The crazy thing is that we’re telling you what you could’ve done based on our experience, but you just brush it off like “leigs are trash, mortars are too risky, 1 mg34 vs 6 maxims??? Plz”

I am taking your advices in consideration and I am trying to refute them/find a flaw to help everyone find the best way to deal with maxim spam. As I said before, and I'm sure some people agree, leigs are pretty weak. You need at least two of them to have the same effect that one regular mortar from any other faction has on the field and maybe you will need to be commander restricted to get the incendiary barrage just to counter this strat. As I'm aware okw doesn't have mortars and as I said before wehr does have a easier time countering this strat thanks to having sniper, good mortar, flame halftrack. Yes 1 mg 34 vs 6 maxims does sound crazy. That game, that you really like to talk about, my team mate did actually stole one maxim and it did nothing for him but again he probably was playing badly.

From a 2v2 perspective, you have so much to say in theory, but you lack the skill in execution. Leigs are a waste of manpower because you can’t AFK it near a battlegroup and still have it shoot to the frontline? With that logic, the mortar pit is absolute trash as well because one has to actually press a few buttons to barrage past auto attack range now.

I'm talking from a 1v1 prespective and everyone knows that leigs are pretty lackluster, you only really feel their presence if you have 2+ of them on the field while one pack howitzer from usf is very very well felt wiping squads that are out of cover and having various fire modes but that's another topic for discussion. I don't afk indirect fire and hope for it to do big work, I am even all for removing the cancer autofire from indirect fire so games aren't as cancerous to play when indirect fire is spammed.

What’s really happening is that you’re being presented with certain challenges that you dislike and refuse to adapt to. You have the tools necessary to overcome(mortar/leig) but you refuse to use them and instead whine about it on the forums. Have you thought about rushing a flame HT, getting a stuka, a luchs, smoke and flank, a panzer 4?

One might have the tools in theory but how effective are they? As I seid above leigs are only really felt when you have 2+ of them and wehr tier two is so expensive that in most cases you are better off skipping it seing how weak 2 units are and how much of an investment getting a flame halftrack is and it gets rekt basically when it gets in the field in team games (AEC/Stuart/AA halftrack/T70/Su-76) so it is really only viable in 1v1's tbh.

People need to think about what they can do to win with what’s available in the game right now, before crying on the forums. The patch is barely a month old and rank 1000s are apparently experts already calling for balance changes.

I'm not really rank 1000 and I do play the game a lot so I think that as a average 1v1/2v2 player I do have some valuable feedback regarding blance, I'm not crying. You tho might have good rank but I bet you have it by using broken strats as brosras used maxim spam and you used infantry section spam with double upgrade... With that in mind you do acknowledge that those particular strats don't really have a good counter and thus you use those strats because they are the most broken ones and the ones that win more games.

And tell your buddy that if he wants to “see” if exploits are true, he can do it in a custom lobby. But you guys did it twice in a row, so there must be more to it.

If he used exploits it was really only one time, I bet that when you find something broken you get so shocked that you just want to try it one time yourself to see how ridiculous it really is, I do this with everything I post on the forums so I am sure if certain units are broken or not so I can avoid biased posts. Can't say the same thing about you it seems...

When in vet3 with bars they can 1v1 grens with vet 3 + lmg pretty well. They also synergize amazingly well with indirect fire (pak howie is the strongest) and with jackson when they hit vet 2 thanks to the sight increase. They basically become the usf version of the spotting scopes for wehr. They are also amazing to crew 50 cals (that become self spotting with pathfinders manning them) but isnt worth to crew at gun because of the at gun vet 1 ability.
