It's tricky because 3 cp does seem a little late, but 2 cp can come out when you would usually just be getting t2 which is definitely early.
I think 3 cp is fine just to air on the side of safety. |
From what someone told me earlier, weapon cool down is how often each soldier pulls the trigger. So it still increases dps just in a different way than before.
I'm not sure if its still as good though, I would like to hear some people's opinions on what bulletins they like now since I haven't had tone to play the patch yet. |
T34s are my personal favorite tank tbh. But I only play 1v1 as Soviets so I've never had to face Panthers with T3. I can imagine that's a problem in 2v2s and up, since it's easier for Germans to tech up to heavy armor.
In 1v1s tho, I usually find that I can either trade my T34 with AT guns for a P4 which is a good trade for me, or have 2 T34s and trade 1 for 1 which is good for me again. |

Also, GTA V |
Just watched it, definitely recommend it's a fun match to see. |
I agree that side skirts are a little powerful on the P4. It's already a dope tank, I think skirts do too much for the t-34 to be a close enough counter tank. Given that P4s are more likely to survive longer than the t-34, then they usually have more vet than the t-34, making it harder to parody the P4 with your t-34s.
I disagree about combat engineers for the fact that combat engineers have more utility, not only with mines, but also with the m3 halftrack. Also not sure about the values but it seems like my combat engis usually beat pios 1v1, but only by 1 unit or so.
Also I disagree with your other stuff too. While pgrens are really good AT, if you give them only 1 shrek they'll have 3 mp44s, which would make them good at both AT and AI, which would probably be pretty unbalanced.
I think T-34s are fine with penetration the way they are. Panthers cost so much all around and are pretty easy to tell when they're coming so Soviets should be prepared with either su-85s or several AT guns + ram to take them out without just throwing T-34s.
You're point about the Tiger makes sense, but I think the Tiger could work either way, either as a powerhouse tank that shoots massive powerful shells that are good vs tanks or a breakthrough AI tank that can eat enemy fire while demolishing all infantry and clearing a path for your own infantry. I personally like it as an AI tank, but I think it could work they way you describe it too. |
And, like wat- max 10$ for all the commanders (even less with a bundle?) plz , what r u homeless? ಠ_ಠ
The problem people have with the cost isn't that we can't afford it, but rather the fact that I already paid 60 dollars for the game. I would like to have a balanced game for the money I paid before I have to start doling out more money for new stuff.
I don't want to pay for new shit when the old shit I already paid for isn't even finished. |

I'm fine with skins costing however much money they want to charge for them. It's an optional thing, and I can understand how if someone want to pay extra to make their army look cool that's completely fine.
Something that would be cool is introducing free commanders along with the paid ones. That way, people who bought the game won't feel gypped, and people who love the game and want everything will still have extra commanders. But WiFi said it, balance first, then DLC. |
- Agree. Vanilla conscripts are to vulnerable. Molotovs or houses are your friends now.
- Some what disagree. Molotov is solid imo as it does force your opponent to move which lets you get in more damage. Keep in mind you don't always have to throw it, you can bait an opponent and make them react and quickly cancel.
- Disagree. Shocks destroy LMG grens, all you have to do is get close. Aim grenades on the biggest clump or the man with the LMG to buy yourself an extra 1-2 secs of no damage.
- Agree. Penals seems harder to use verse LMG.
- Agree. Guards don't fancy but hey they shouldn't imo.
- Agree. Snipers.
- Some what agree. Maxims actually do quite well but you have to give them a lot of forward vision and catch the Grens at a distance.
- Disagree. Mortars are actually good verse LMG. The key here is to fight from long-mid range with Conscripts and force a cover shoot out. Eventually that mortar will hit and once you get it to vet1, no capping Gren is safe.
I sort of play it like CoH1 Rifles vs Volks spam, which I felt was the Volk spam was the BO with most potential aggresion if America screwed up a single time. Very similiar to that of Gren spam with LMG. With my Rifles I would always play it defensively but the moment you find the opportunity I pounce on it. In this case though my BAR's are my Shock Troops. I have that mindset and it seems to work against a lot of the high ranked Ostheer players that primarily just spam Grens/LMG and extend to T2 or straight T3.
In the mid-game stages I feel as I said my Shocks handle them find, T3 anti-infantry vehicles and T2/T4 arty.
Feel free to ignore my last post there, Stephenn just said everything I wanted to say. Shocks are my boys. Shouts out the shocks/kv8 doctrine. |
Back on topic, yes there are few infantry counters to MG-42 grens.
HOWEVER, mg-42 upgrades are way too expensive early game, which seem to be your guys problem. The german player really shouldn't have enough munitions to be getting mg-42s before you have a better later game solution to grens, either t-34s or katyushas. If the german is rushing his mg-42 upgrades, camp buildings. He won't have enough to use enough rifle grenades to force you out of them, and will be caught up with trying to wittle down one squad. You might not win the engagement, but while that's happening, you can use the 85 muni discrepancy for oorahed conscripts to cap all over the map while his one useful gren squad is tied up.
Basically, what I'm trying to say is, Germans are already a munition starved faction, if your opponent is going fast mg-42s you should be happy, just avoid that one squad unless you can hit it in force, take his cut-offs and camp buildings like there is no tomorrow. Then laugh as your t-34s come and shit all over his grens.
