Re: 5.1.7patch
There is realism, and then there is common sense. Common sense would dictate that the better fire on the move for the sherman and co. was definitely a step in the right direction, but the 76mm still needs buffs across the board. Even better accuracy on the move, while at the same time standardizing ...

Re: Vampyre
so you think panzer elite is overpowered? ok. although i dont play this game regularly. but i think same thing with you. right? i invite you to come and play 1vs1 together. at least 10 times. i will play allies and you will play "overpowered" axis. we can try all doctrines. show me how yo...

Re: Poor Doctrine Design - Luft
I'ts because of that accuracy and suppression that the wirbel is better than the quad. Luft have many other things that do more that a good job of clearing out infanty @viper, no one is saying that you cant lose with luft. Also, keep in mind we are not balancing by 1v1. we are balancing by teams. At...

Re: Poor Doctrine Design - Luft
Let me now tell you the actual sides of the argument on this topic: - First side: Thinking Luft doc is pure OP, unbeatable in 1v1, and nothing can stop it. Thus, this side is suggesting Gebrigs, Hetzer AND Panther as well as SD2 to be ALL removed.. in addition of delaying Flak88s AND making Panzers...

Re: Poor Doctrine Design - Luft
I cant understand why the "luft=balanced/needs-no-changes" side of the debate ignores how the game actually works so hard? Do you guys just build hetzer's to counter allied units? Or do you also build 20mm cars, Falls, shrecks, AT guns? Like its not a question of just 1 unit at this point;...

Re: HE/AP Switch Cooldown Standardization
What else could be standardized? I'd say ambush bonuses for TD's. Obviously there would be differences between say, the bonus of a jackson or a hetzer, but stuff like the hellcat, wolverine and jackson could be standardized, or the jadgpanzers and the hetzer, maybe even the jagdpanther (all the low ...

IMHO, I think the best way to do this is by "balance crusade". A survey will give you a good feeling or what everyone wants, but it does not allow for discussion. I think the best way to go about it, it topics like this: how to we want to balance stuff, what logic will we use to achieve th...

Re: Doctrine Specialization: Example Firefly in the RAF doc and Grenadiers in Wermacht
I like the metaphor you used with rock-paper-scissors, but in reality its more of an office-max in terms of how the counter game goes... but that is obvious. (I am way more proud of this joke than I have any right to be) Anyway, I chose specialized docs; no surprise there. But for me, I always thoug...

Ah kwok! Happy to see that you are now part of the dev team. I see you have the people who don't want to see germans nerfed quaking in their boots!

Re: Allies OP
I completely agree. With allied units actually killing one German unit once in a blue moon, radical action must be taken to stop this imbalance. I suggest they also have an upgrade that gives the stuka rockets some sort of guidance system, and allow them to have 31 inch grenade assaults for the more...

Re: Forgotten USA light tanks
I mean, the issue is is that by the time you can get an allied LT on the field, axis has Puma, HT, sometimes pak/rocket AT...Its not so much a fault of the chaffe or Stuart as it is just axis outclassing allies in terms of quality at every stage of the game except for maybe at the very beginning.

4.) Nope. no troll.
