They are a great support unit. If you put them behind Riflemen during fights, they do a great job. You can also use them to crew AT guns and MGs, as they have the same spotting range with the weapons they crew, so they have a bigger line of sight than standard crews |
A lot of it really does though. And that’s an area pros are very useful in giving advice. It astounds me that there’s so much hostility towards the opinions of the people who are objectively the best in the world at this game as a whole.
There's a reason people are hostile towards them. Give advice, do it in a gentle manner. When you go to get a job, the boss doesn't tell you "learn how to work". He TEACHES you. He's there to answer your questions, help you do something a little bit better than you previously did. This is how you teach/advise someone. Does this thing exist in this forum? No, not at all.
I don't degrade Imperial Dane and every Imperial Dane when i say i don't like him. I don't like his attitude, i never questioned his ability as a player. I have watched his streams and i like how he plays (his playstyle as Wehr is what i want to deal with when i play games, not the irritating MG spam i see in my rank). But when he starts the shit about balance, i really wish i could punch him in the face. |
I said something similar and got perma banned
This is why i don't want to have any kind of advice or conversation with "pros". Everything comes around "learning to play" |
I game TWO options. We don't need to balance around pros. But if we're going to balance around the average Joe, we shouldn't care about the winrates of a tournament of the top 20 players in the world.
I will agree with u on Imperial Dane though. He is still my favorite caster. What he says about Ost being underpowered is almost completely correct. However, he does rage far too often when he's losing and blaming Relic on balance when sometimes he is partly to blame.
If we are going to ingore the tournaments, then we can do the following things :
-Ignore people giving stupid ideas
-Discuss possible changes and WHY we believe they are good
-Use actual argument on why you thing a certain thing will/won't work if implemented
-Stop being toxic and start giving advice
-Make the game easier to play for everyone without constantly trying to balance it
On Imperial Dane now, i won't disagree that he's a great player, but his attitude is what pisses me off. I hate that kind of behavior. Wins and losses are in the game, you should be able to accept both. Nobody ever wins everywhere, and nobody ever loses everywhere. Simple as that. |
This is not hypocrisy. This is the knowledge about how the game works. Players outside of the top are not affected by inter-faction ballance at all thanks to matchmaker. Even if one faction was clearly better than the other, the matchmaker would still find you such matches, that your chance to win would be close to 50/50. And even if the number of players is small, you still get half of matches for you to lose, no matter what are the factions involved.
This is the reason why ballance opinions are so varied and usually players who play one faction seem to say it is the weakest. They get close to perfect ballance from matchmaker, but they justify their loses with "OP" and "UP". In effect, it is easy to find a match where both sides believe the grass is greener on the other side and that their side is UP.
Let's sum up then. We have a crowd of people who believe that some faction is underpowered or overpowered even though you can mathematically prove that they play in ballanced conditions. And these people can't agree on anything. Do you really think they are the right source of information to chose future direction of changes within the game?
If you really ignore those people complaining about that stuff and ask for nerfs and buffs which are also insane (as i have mentioned in another post, nobody -sane though- asked for AR-15s to Riflemen and AK-47s on Conscripts, or G36C and G3A3 on Volks and Grenadiers). Every faction has some pros and cons, and if i want to write them down, i will need to create a new post for that. Ignore people saying stuff about nerfs and buffs, stop spamming to people "l2p" all the time, and start giving advice. What i hate in this community is that everybody is toxic as hell. Give advice, be friendly, stop asking for someone's rank (nobody spends the same time as someone else in the game, so there's OBVIOUSLY a skill gap) and try to talk about balance in a logical manner. No, giving the Jackson or the AEC the armor of a M1A1 Abrams, the speed of a Ferrari F1, the damage of a nuclear missile and the cost of a piece of paper, IS NOT A LOGICAL THING! |
Yeah, asking the pros. The hypocrisy at its finest. I will say it plain straight, i don't give a damn about pros, and a game is balanced so that EVERYBODY can play it. Want to balance it around pros? Ok then, all the players will leave. Have fun pros playing with each other 10 consecutive matches. I still remember how Imperial Dane got mad when he lost a 2v2 game and when i told him that it's funny that he complains when he loses 1 match out of 100, but when he wins 99 matches out of 100, he says nothing. I got a nice block from his stream that day. If this is an objective reasoning, then fine, whatever you say... |
HK G3 is good, almost everything HK does is actually good (mp7, g3, hk416..)
But g36 is undeniably trash.
Except HK416, i'm really going for HK MP5. |
Where ?
Google. And also, in game it is categorized as a medium |
A Pershing firing on Panther at max range has around 85% to penetrate and 100% with the AP shot.
A Panther firing at Pershing has 73%.
Panther is not tank, it is TD and it is especially design to counter Super heavies like IS-2 and Pershing that may cost more fuel but have tech cost. And I would say that it can counter them with absolute ease.
It's strange because Panther is mentioned as a medium tank

vet1 rifles is the same as vet0 except for AT grenade. M8 coming at 5cp and it wold be risky to fire canister on Volks because they have panzerfaust
You aren't supposed to send M8 alone, but accompanied by Riflemen and Echelons, and a M20 if you want.
Considering what a trashy rifle g36 HK is, it would probably be balanced or even up
People also claim that HK G3 is trash, but people who have served have a different opinion |
