As you rank up (and you still need to) you will be matched with skillful allies. The road up is hard. This is true of all factions. I remember the first game as OKW in 4v4 I had more damage dealt than my entire team combined with an added 10,000 damage to boot, as such we lost badly. Needless to say, not great teammates. Now that I have ranked up I don't run into those players as teammates anymore.

Push through you will notice a significant increase in the efficiency of the skill matching.

Also please do not lol at players looking for advice, it is a fair problem.

While it is true you can run into players with limited experience in allies, with teams that are better constant pressure is still hard to pull of and not well rewarded.

The OKW player can drop a med truck just a little ways back and make an break point that requires enormous amounts of focus to bring down. If the Wehr player has a mortar HT good luck.

I rarely if ever float mp at the beginning mid of a match, but I still feel completely out classed by obers and the gren spam. They get more efficient units and some at lower cost. Meanwhile the lost of a rifle for me means I lose the vehicle snare. In team games the late game arrives so quickly the allied advantage in the early game is weak. Weathering the storm with even partial control of on vp and 1/3 or sometimes less of the map is more than enough for Germans to win. Once the German tanks arrive allies will slowly be pushed back as they give up mp to damage but the German player only loses time to repair. Over capitalizing in infantry, especially by American, results in huge upkeep cost and no room for tanks. Frequently I cannot get back on the field because I have lots of vet infantry I have nursed to the late game, but very few tanks, and over 1000 mp I cannot spend on anything. Meanwhile the German players are resource converting to unlimited artillery and 1 or 2 super tanks.

Moral of story, yes allies have to be aggressive but in team games the opportunity to use early game to their advantage is limited. Also being aggressive offers many opportunities for disastrous engagements. Meanwhile Germans can hold back and slowly bleed Allies while waiting for their laser guns and reactive armored space tanks with mind control smoke.

Agreed, all mg's fail to halt blobs. If a blob walks into an mg it should be forced to retreat not just stop and kill the mg.

Priorities...Relic has them, but they make no sense.

I hope we do not win this event.

EDIT: Think about what OKW is facing at the start of the game: Rifles were are bar none the best early infantry unit in the game and come out with no teching, con spam which is very easy to do, and then shocks which will normally come out before you get your scher up and Obers being produced to count.

I think you really underestimate the power of the Volks. If you are getting over run by infantry you can use the 10 munition grenade volley (in a number of commanders), pick a commander with an MG34, or use a Kubel. Volks in cover do great. Kubel against shocks is great. Force him to smoke early and then use volks to pick away at him. You can quickly move the kubel to keep the shocks from advancing, and if the kubel dies you still get the fuel back.

To top that they can build green cover, have a ton of abilities, get good grenades, are a large squad, get excellent vet bonuses, and are cheap. The upgrade to shreks also makes them potent against infantry in cover since they can blow the cover away quickly. Seriously what more do you want with this unit, it is the Swiss Army knife of units?

I agree with you that OKW needs a counter to early vehicles, but right now volks are straight up stupid. For cost they cannot be beat. As they scale in vet they become extremely potent, this is why we see volks blobs so often.
