Miss clicked sorry |
Don't know what you are talking about.
Ost lategame is better than USF lategame.
But against soviet,plz.
Panther is the only thing that really counters is-2 and its inaccesible.A smart soviet player will always back his is-2 with zis and then ur in shit.You may ask..why don't u get pak to counter that?Well first u have burned all ur mp teching,second is-2 can one shot pak,while panther can't do anything to zis.
Tiger will lose badly vs is-2.It also loses to t-34/85s with mark target.
In terms of elite infantry ost has none,while you will see multiple shock squads roaming the field by lategame.
In terms of artillery ,B4 is the best emplacement artillery in the game.If u didn't have recon and dive bomb ur in trouble.Katyusha is the best stock arty in the game by FAR.What do you have against this?Lefh poopshooter?Panzerwerfer firecracker?
Try playing ost more before making redundant comments.Ost lategame only looks super strong when it plays alongside OKW.
This might be off-topic but I kinda agree. Although with proper early game adjustments it's not gonna be that hard to counter Soviet heavies. I think the "Axis blaming" is getting out of hand. I play all four factions (except Ostheer because I'm not good) and I think despite some OKW problems (mostly blobing) things are not as bad as people say they are. The thing is "general balance" is different than "unit balance". |
There a lot of dreams on this topic, the problem with HMGs being more effective is to make it more easy to spam and lock down the map with 2 or 3 of them.
HMGs are not hard counter to blobs, they[re here to slow down blobs and give you time to reposition your line of defense. Well in that way, they are hard counter since a blob suppressed isn't really effective. HMGs + grenadiers have really good synergies, suppress a unit and riflenade it is, in my opinion, one of the best early combo you can found in this game.
It's kinda easy to say, but early game specially as Ostheer you will lose map control if you always use one of your squads as a spotter. That's why most people prefer a Gren instead of a HMG, grens also scale better and you can eventually give them LMG. HMG42 on the other hand can not do it's job mid game. When USF has 2-3 double BAR, or even worse double LMG rifles. Not to mention smoke grenade.
That's why some people suggest a debuff for blobs. It actually makes sense and can resolve a lot of issues for all 4 factions. |
** Reducing the throwing range of grenades by 50% when the thrower is suppressed. (All type of grenades from all factions) **
It seem a good compromise. It would reduce the frontal charge capacity of blobs vs HMG.
Thanks.
This, Plus removed the received accuracy debuff on crew. |
If the MG42 needs a buff, what does the Maxim need?! Its cone of fire is only a third and even LMG Grens kill it frontally with one click for a rifle nade. It's absolutely mindboggling how this can be in the game where the counter to standard infantry gets countered by it.
Right now maxim is the best MG in game, although it has its issues. In general all MGs are under-performing. Maxim is the best, but as you said its suppression AOE (not the actual cone) is smaller, and Grens rifle nade sometimes insta-wipe a maxim because of the new cover system. As said before, reducing the grenade range when suppressed can fix that. Maxim also does more damage. |
Honestly, on a lot of videos where I see a plane crash happen, its on a blob. When thats the case I think, plane crashes are a nice feature.
On the other side, when I see on the videos here they crash into tanks repairing, Panthers, Stuka its complete bullshit.
It's very satisfying to see blobs go down like that, but losing infantry is more punishing for non blobbing players IMO. Combined arms have more upkeep, so re building your 2-3 infantry squad for map control is gonna be so hard. |

What you say makes sense, and it encourages players to use cover and positioning. But we still need suppression tweaks for crowd control.
But the thing is I won't think they change the vet/cover system at this point. |
Oh, so if there were a total war tomorrow and you were drafted to defend your country, of course you would refuse because killing people is bad ?
I don't care if he was a nazi or not, if he was a bad guy or not. He was a soldier, he did his job just like millions of other soldiers at the time. People die in wars.
Unfortunately, I will be drafted in case of war because of the laws of my country and even now I'm technically a soldier. But defending your country is different than following that weird mustache guy who kills his own people, Jewish people, poles etc.
But everyone has the right to think what they want, I do care if he was a Nazi or not, But you have the right to think what ever you want. So cheers, let's not argue mate  |
Well, he just did his job 
I don't wanna go off-topic and start an irrelevant and pointless argument, but that's not an excuse.
