Since someone decided to invis my first post....

Potentially problematic:

Croc callin

Royal engineers with snares.

Elite vehicle crews from USF

Valentine/Sexton combo

KV-8

LeFH in overwatch coupled with maximum vision trucks and flares everywhere. Also its 1-3 vet is matching ostheer which is a massive buff, all while having better base scatter stats.

5 man grenadiers

Stug E

Other things which are too vague which raises concerns are the M10 HEs, perimeter overwatch from UKF, M-42 AT gun, and stormtroopers honestly look terrible.

The description of everything is a mess. Lack of spaces and bold.

+1 A lot of things are incredibly vague.

But I'm not talking shit! That's something you do, to anyone and everyone who complains about how USF who gets abused by OKW, because they perform what USF gameplan used to be much better than they ever could by virtue of having a better starting unit, a light vehicle that can cap, cheaper mainline infantry that can build green cover and access to MG/ATG without needing to choose only one. Even their specialized light vehicles being better than what the USF has now.

I could just go AFK and let you Pridepost about that, just like ullumulu is doing as of late, maybe you'd like to do that too? ... You know that you can just disagree with me and say that you know better without being a douchebag, but if you are tired of us 5-6-7 others complaining about OKW, let me tell you aren't the only one tired of something.

I wouldn't expect any better of him, he has always thought that attacking the person behind the argument is the way to go.

Yes this isn't an insult or anything. I don't do this to random players who are looking to improve their game through tips and better micro. I do this to players who see the game through 1 dimentional glasses because there is zero possiblity that they are the absolute perfect player and everything they complain about is unbalanced.

I have tried to disagree to without acting like an ass for years. But again i'm doing this vs multiple people who will simply not consider any other point of view because their point of view is through a single gamemode and a single faction. There is no #ADAPT for these players, or at least it looks that way. It's complain here to try and change things they actually give them trouble because they want to upgrade their rifles with 2x BARs, drag box around all 3-4 + free squads, and click around the map. I've helped many players in the replay review section previously and I've offered it to a few of these players as well, but they don't want help, they just want nerfs vs the factions they play against.

1v1 tonight, crossroads, 3hrs and 15 minutes from this post. 00:00 Zulu. You can take OKW. Join "looking for group"

Could have been pulling from memory and misremebered. 2 whole points off isn't a big deal, certainly not a reason to be a cunt about it

I don't want to be hostile, but when the same 6-7 people who ONLY play USF just say whatever they like inorder to get USF to "braindead tactical nuke I win" status you can only be nice for so long.

Did I really say OKW T4 is better than USF? Oh no, I just say USF superior late game is a myth and by your own description you are acknowledging it. Pz4 and Sherman, Jackson and Panther or Jpz4, one faction rely on a unique tool to counter armor while the other has a variety of choices and a complete army covering all aspects of the game by the moment the T3 is built.

You can't simply compare Riflemen late game in a vacuum with Obers when the first is lacking half of his support by design or to delay is own late game. When Obers hit the field, you have HMGs, Raketen, Luchs + Puma or HT + Leigs + map vision already giving you various advantages.

I repeat myself but nobody says OKW is OP or anything else, nop, but have too much advantages early game, nobody is asking for a direct nerf but an adjustement that would only bring more balance for those 5 first minutes.

It's simple, we nerf the OKW.

This guy says nerf OKW, therefore if something is receiving a nerf it must be OP.

By saying "USF being superior lategame is a myth" you are saying that OKWs lategame is better. OKW t4 is the OKW lategame unless you want to count cheesey AF rak blobs and argueably the Stuka in teamgames. It doesn't matter if OKW has access to more diverse armor like the JP4, p4, KT, and panther if the jackson can shut all of them down. Futhermore, you MUST compare obers to BAR rifles in a vaccum, otherwise I could just say "support your rifles with 50s and you'll win every engagement". Why can't the MG34 have damage to win its own engagements like the 50cal? Why can't raks be a normal AT gun instead of cheesey as shit? I don't know apparently some people enjoy having cheese in the game because it's "diverse".

I don't know why you keep focusing on this, the problem isn't that OKW beat USF for the 5 first minutes, it is that USF is design to beat their opponent during that time or they lose. USF isn't design to perform comeback unlike Ostheer is. USF late game superior to OKW late game is a myth, the only reason people think so is because of skill gap between players on matchmaking. A same match with a more balanced factions would see the USF player wins the same game faster.

OKW being superior to USF early game is fine if USF is given all the tools to come back, and not one tool or another aka T1 suppression or T2 AT options, but both of them on each tier and being less commander depend as Ostheer also is.
And since it is not likely to happen because of USF/OS matchup, OKW early game has to be tone down.
There is a need of a logic behind the design, if you design a faction around gaps and strong decision making (T1 vs T2) as USF is today in exchange of early domination, you can't suddenly take it away and say "it's fine, they can still comeback"...

And don't get me wrong, nobody is even talking about having USF early game superior to OKW, but a more balanced situation, a 50|50 where the best player takes the lead of the game.

Stock OKW t4 is GARBAGE compared to USF lategame. I don't know where you get these fanatical dillusions that the HE sherman is somehow worse than a P4 that relies entirely on RNG to make its cost worth, and a KT that is so laughably bad its seen as liability to buy rather then an actual worthwhile investment. The Jackson can handle any piece of stock armor OKW can field with enough support and the scott is a solid piece of indirect.

Meanwhile OKWs lategame AI includes, the KT which has IS2 scatter on a chasis that is 50% slower. The P4 whose AI is out matched by the HE sherman in AoE of the main gun and T34 in MGs. The p4 has to even purchase an MG to get the same DPS as the T34s MGs all for the bonus of shooting to the sides and rear. And lastly there is Obers, which arrive far later than standard mainline infantry who can simply match their power just by double equipping machine guns, all while having 5 men.

Try OKW before you try to balance them.
