The general changes you propose are okay and some of them could be included in the next patch. However, don't think this game needs anymore big factional (eg.tech tree, sniper,etc) changes since this game is far better in balance than it was couple of years ago.
If I could change something major in this game, it would be the maps. I mostly play 2v2s, 80% of maps are soo bad in regards to path finding, being way too narrow, little room for flanks,etc... |
It doesn't need a nerf. The combo is locked behind the doctrine and it's the main use of T34-76 past the first tank stage (where it's mostly used vs infantry and light vehicles). That doctrine is a definite counter to heavy tanks with RAM as it should be. It's a muni vs fuel duel. You spend 200 muni and a t34 to kill a 230 fuel and 640 manpower heavy tank. Is it a good trade for the axis? No, but that's the whole point. Besides, the combo is mostly used vs front line heavy tanks like KT and Tiger, not the heavy tank destroyers that sit behind and snipe. Again, it's a risk to field frontline heavies vs that doctrine. You can't really complain about an ability that drops bombs in a straight thin line designed to destroy tanks.
To add to this post, the T34 ram wont always deal critical engine damage, I think the probabilty of that happening is 50/50. So, if there is no engine crit, the heavy tank can just dodge off the IL2 bombs pretty easily. Hence, making the T34 ram+IL2 combo a very high risk and high reward maneuver. |
You know it is a spicy meme when one single replay featuring one very creative player using an extremely niche strat starts a full on balance discussion.
Suggestion: Since current evidence indicates that there is a single person using this strat in somewhat high tier games can we rename this thread to Nerf Adamir - until this naturally becomes the new feared brit tryhard meta that everyone else was too blind to use
I'm using it everytime I play team games so.... works like charm. |
That is true. The camo needs a nerf on all similar units. So that you can't walk lategame half a map in cover with full speed. It has nothing to do with l2p
A simple fix would be to move the running camo to vet 2/3. That's it. |

"Apparently"
Probably just read that here.
Could be but it is not officially confirmed so he is only spreading information that is based on speculation which is fake news, goddamn these americans and their fake news... |

@1:10 he says the patch was an apparent panzerfusillier fix lol |
Well, too bad for you, because they are infiltration units, camo IS their gimmick.
Falls get it with vet, because they have potent long range weapons by default.
They could be still be used like other Assault units like Pgrens, Shocktroops, etc. where you send them on flanks. They would still have stationary camo so still can throw a bundle nade and wipe unattended units. |
Because one was cheapest anti tank gun with no tech requirement that's not exactly meant to sneak past enemy lines and the other is special doctrinal unit specifically made for exactly that?
Let me be clear, I'm not against commandos sneaking behind the front lines and taking out units with PIATS. Just doesn't want it to be at 'vet0', move the moving-camo to vet2/3 like falls.
Do the same for stormtroopers too if it is possible. |
So the whole map is carpeted by arty and hence a lot of yellow cover and you complain that a CQC unit that excels in cover is OP. Furthermore, the commando PIATs are only good vs light vehicles. To sum up, you have a specifically-specific scenario that suits one unit and you call it OP. My God what this forum is becoming.
Remember the time when Raketen could camo and sneak behind lines to takeout rocket arties? This commando+PIAT combo is just that...so why shouldn't this be addressed when raketen got nerfed? |
Units with high scatter are affected more though
So like the Panther, which already has a questionable stationary accuracy... |
