and they are not BARs for a reason. 1 BAR costs the same as 2 (or is it 3?) and again dont need anything but trying to get tanks as quickly as possible to get, it doesnt stop you from building units and doesnt require you going to base to get them. they arent as good because it would be IMBA for them to be.

(also when i say idky people think stgs are bad and you come back with how they are worse than BARs it sure reads like they are bad, so sorry if i assumed)

they are a great upgrade on a great unit that has literally no draw back at all.

also doctrinal does make a difference. doesnt matter if current meta commanders have them or not, i bought them, all, its the age old question of "why should i be hamstrung and unable to compete if i dont pick a certain commander"
volks got them becasue they lost their shrek, but they didnt need them and it only further enforced the WFA design of "dont diversify your BO and lump your infantry together with fire on the move weapon upgrades that work well at all ranges"

its bad design for both, but at least the BAR has some impact on decision making (bad BAR blobs are every bit as cancer as there is)

And what's the fuel cost on top of teching for the STGs? And the per gun price? Bars are better but Bars are a choice the stg is not. The stg is a 100% no Brainer. Getting access to them doesn't delay your Armour, upgrading to them doesn't effect your field presence. There is literaly no reason ever not to get STGs the very second you can. Bars are better but that doesn't make STGs bad. Fucking players wanting everything to be the exact same is what's killing this damn game... Christ.

Every single C&C title with exception of first.
Halo Wars(yeah, I know, a stretch, but still).
Whole homeworld series(Desserts of Kharak included).
AoEnline when it was still alive(no gear stats mode).
Supreme Commander 2(don't know much about 1).
CoH1 to an extend(plenty of cheeze, but there are ways to counter it all).
Now, try not to lose your shit here:
DoW3 last balance patch.

Offtopic but frankly mortar pit should be reworked IMO. It makes axis players rage and it hamstrings Brit players who don’t want to use emplacements. If nobody likes it why is it still a thing?

On topic: only issue I take wth usf really is how stupid their teching system is. You either get all the suppression tools and no real at or all the real at and no suppression tools and an rng popcap sink (pack howie). That and maybe lacking in the garrison clearing department despite being a super aggressive faction. I’m always in awe when I play the vanilla factions and I can just grab a flamer and start roasting garrisons so easily or just huck lava nades about with okw. That being said ost doesn’t need to be any more vulnerable to usf.

You say that like STGs are bad... I'd kill for a non doc good at all ranges, great for bobbing all your infantry into a death ball kinda upgrade when I play EFA. kids these days ain't happy with their fancy omnipotent infantry and bonuses for teching up... Back in my day if we wanted durable infantry they couldn't fight for a damn, or if they could they were expensive. They sure as shit weren't core infantry... If they had a snare they had to pay for it, if they had a weapon upgrade it was because they needed it... Wfa has made yall soft

What are you talking about? It's common place to see Pgrens drop shreks

Soviet is in every aspect, better than USF and UKF

AT guns are by far superior in penetration,damage and they have artillery
