I did the math on this; OKW fuel tech costs aren't out of line with other factions considering the very high fuel price they pay due to their reduced income.
I agree that resource conversion kinda messes with that balance.
Their mp costs OTOH....need a mp increase.
Also, to OP: you're not meant to get all three officers as USF. You're supposed to get two; depending on map/match needs and your playstyle. Same for OKW who are also supposed to get three tiers only.

I've definitely killed them with 2 shots before. Definitely killed Scotts w/ 2 shots before as well.
Were the raketens vet and in camo? IIRC they get a camo damage bonus with vet |
Tbh it matters little either way for now.
I'd much rather the time was devoted instead to standardize allied squad sizes to 6; axis to 5 AND Adjust the dps/RA of ever squad so they remain as is now. |
I'd say standardize the squad sizes across all factions. Make Allies have 6 man squads; axis have 5 man squads (I'm ok with 4 too but they clump too much).
Also, brits have, expensive IS but cheaper Engi squads (who get even cheaper to reinforce at vet3) so while ost sniper is OP for brit IS, one can argue that he's not for engi. And don't forget you can put 2 or 3 lmgs on a brit engi section
Tl: DR there's too much variation in squad reinforce costs; squad sizes etc. Need to standardize first. |
I've gotten good use out of them as behind LoS ambushers and mid-range cover fighters. Never rush in with them, just drain mp that way. Especially good on Kholodny, ambushing around the bushes on enemy infantry on the main roads. Once they vet up they become beasts.
But as assault troops? Naa they're meh.
Personally the best way to assault, I've found, is to use snipers/mortars to focus on their AT and then cover those against their infantry using PGs/P4s/ They work well supporting armor. |
Yes USF are finally getting armor nerfs to Shermans and slower Jacksons because they rely on range. Other than that everything is set.
stop trolling the poor USF players. They don't need fake bad news right now. NDA NDA but all I'll say is keep the flags flying USF fans |
looks like ill be exclusively playing brits, till they get readjusted to be in line (strength wise) with the other factions
how about team games? isnt it rather retarded to have one side being able to do well in the early as well as the late game (sovs + brits [lol at USF]) while the other side is only good late game? im asking here, so dont get all "meh you cant stand the idea of an late game allied faction" cause that really isnt what its all about, okay?
thank you
edit: i totally forgot that im looking at this the wrong way... most likely. there will be more changes to the existing factions, right? so assuming anything based on how brits will perform (from this thread) without considering those changes would be futlie, wouldnt it?
Tbh most of the alpha changes to axis factions have already been implemented iirc. Only USF is left |
I'd happily trade the panther for comet |
Please do not post pictures of the comet, it is very triggering for us Alpha Axis testers
ya I remember.... |
I think we're all agreed that there is an imbalance correct? |
