Its common knowledge by now that its sucks playing as the Japs in the Pacific. The Italians are a little bit better but still suffer. None will complain if the game is not 100% accurate. Balance is also needed for a good game!
The current problem is a large gap in player imbalance. Not many want to play those nations because of their reputation. But this means only newbies join those sides and the reputation gets validated. So unless they take away player choice or make it harder to chose what exactly you play (like the merge) this issue will feed into itself and no amount of buffs can help (unless those buffs are busted and just flip the sides who gets the veterans).
Tunisia is not unbalanced in my opinion, it just needs more players on the axis side.
Usually it’s a 1-2 VS 10 player game and and the allies dominate, but on the rare chance that you get more than 3 player playing axis it’s very winnable.
Japs are just ok. The game already nerfed Allies and gives Japs stuff they didn´t or barely used for their high tier stuff.
As the comrades said:
Issue is not the gear itself. It’s the playerbase. The best guns don’t serve any purpose if only 2 players are using them against 10 foes.
the Japanese have no problem on the Pacific and their issues are also present for the Allied side, right now everyone is grinding before the merge so Japan mains are somewhere else, it also doesn’t help that players still don’t use the engineer as a support squad, and spend the whole match without building a single sandbag wall, but anyway currently you win more matches with the Japanese than the US( I am a Japan main)
I am not worries in any campaign about sandbags, more about
- Rallies
- Ammo boxes
Players still don’t seem to understand how powerful any construction is.
Many battles won or lost because of a rally point.
Japan has more players than the US in the Pacific, that’s all.
Japs have anti everything rifle they are good
I can see that based off your name.
Overall yeah that’s the big problem in Tunisia.
But there’s two remarkable piece of gear in the italian side that make the experience for any newcomer a hell.
Firstly the AB 41 against the A13, I do not mean in the sense of one being able to kill another, AB 41 can take the A13 easily. I mean in the sense of anti-infantry capability, A13 is a monster, it has a powerful machine gun that hardly overheat and has lots of rounds, the HE of 40 pound gun is decent. And it has smoke launchers.
In other hand AB 41 has an auto cannon as the main gun, auto cannon, sounds good huh? No. It comes with only EIGHT rounds which are capable of overheating as you fire it, as for the machine gun it suffer the same issue 24something rounds with the risk of overheating.
Secondly the MP28, it’s needless to say how bad the MP28 is… and that’s the initial assaulter gun for axis while the british have the superb STEN gun which has even more rounds (MP28: 20 x STEN: 32)
Hope the merge fix this issue soon.
lvl 3 i am i last 3 mins 22 secs in the game in Pacific so I don’t bother now the normady camp as Germans u get bombed with artillery strikes all the time so I last 4 secs in that game games good but vets just use new newbies like cannon fodder so prob delete the game as if you expect gajin to respond it doesn’t care and that same for war thunder as well if the balance is done and u can at least get some where it be a great gun
Tunisia Axis lacks any usable AT weapons until toward the end of the progression (except for explosion packs and TNT).
It’s a farce.
I thought it’s common knowledge that japs do not suffer at all. Italians do (). Maybe it changed. When I started to play Tunisia Allie’s 1 years ago, my win rate was 30%. Now it is 10l%
Bretta m1 is superb. Cherry picked examples do not work. The problem is with player number difference.
As if Normandy Allie’s get bombed less
You might want to wait until the merge to see what happens first.
I’m talking about the first gear that players in axis side gets… they are awful in comparisson with british
You get beretta M1 after a long grind.
Well, u can also say the carcano is better than the Springfield.
one big prob us forces have flame throws mgs and at weapons, the japs have nothing no mg emplacements which means the Yanks steam roller everything in sight I refuse to play Pacific cos the Yanks runaround frying every one and how do rifles men kill an entire tank crew - by shooting it lol the mg guns on the tanks are laughable the turrets to slow to engage men running at a tank with TNT haha nah its not cod that’s for sure
