Berlin axis is literally unplayble (with low lvl equipment)

im lvl 8 and i just cant compete im constantly against good players with ppsh and ppd, i dont have the equipment to compete and even if my team is decent we are all low lvl.

i dont think its a problem of balancement with the equipment itself (no ppd and ppsh are not OP) but even i quitted axis berlin bc it was just too frustarting, i am playing this game to have fun and i dont want to farm a side that is frustarting and enraging to play, so if someone has a solution to it you’re free to open a debate under this post.

Perhaps they should widen the map a bit ? with more open areas. Idk nothing about those maps but could be something. The map seems pretty narrow looking at it from youtubers but havent seen that much of it so to speak. Heard about snipers active on it though so should be room for that

There is no real solution, just russian factions where everyone spams 3 assault squads with ppsh which is like 3 times as good as every german mp.

So the only thing i found enjoyable is just to play Tunisia, no ppsh spam there no other full auto rifle spam as well. Ofc ppl like to play assaults and so on there as well, the thing is just no gun there seems to be mental imba like the ppsh so everyone has a good time.

right so, if you are level 8, you already made the heavy lifting.

minding sending here a few pic of your current active squads?

Around lvl 10 os when you get the some very strong gear
G43, mg34, panther, stuka are all very strong

I feel you. Its Berlin so Berlin is all about the CQB power which is what the Russians excel at the most. Early Germans dont get alot of great things but become better later. I stuck it through for the FG42 II and Tiger but dont worry, reinforcements will arrive when they announce the StG44 :wink: I’ll be looking forward to returning as I do miss the maps and how its much more infantry focused as compared to wide open areas of Normandy

Rn I can’t but I have the radio man squad 5 ppl (all are equipped with g43)

A full assaulter squad with mp3008 and 1 Erma

And an engineer squad with 1 engineer 1 assaulter and riflemans

And I really dont know if I want to invest in mp40

are you crazy :slight_smile: MP 40 is the sht. You buy that instantly young man

Interesting point. I guess right now the best SMG the Germans get would be the MP35 or M38, both are great, but thats a while down the road

i see.

well, people above aren’t necessarely wrong.

but i found a few ways to mitigate:




and if you have an additional slot:

if you manage to reach level 11.

ap mines will be very helpful alongside at mines.
don’t forgot those.
for the rest, nade spam is the berlin way.

if you need to progress somewhat faster, you can do it in custom matches.
for how shit they can be, those are easy for farm due to lots of different equipment combined.

and then, if you struggle to get squad point, just do custom matches on your own against bots ( although, slow xps for campaign, and slow soldier veterancy ).

so that way, you can mitigate.

and last but not least, if you have others campaings with g43, mp40s, mg34s, upgrade them there, and than transfer. that will save you time behind the yellow tech tree.

but it’s up to you.

Fair enough but since i know youre an good player being an pinch purse isnt needed at all ^^
I mean im currently arming all my soldiers with FG42s atm even my mortarmen xD + all AT guys have mines as my Snipers has AP mines. And everyone has good pistols to xD I mean they have been on the top of weaponry all the way up here to so its not like its an issue

You can always get bronze from those weapons later to so its well worth it if youre being and teching as an assaulter that is

Also to add this is my best hipster move yet xD Best buy ive ever made for my well deserved fighter pilot. Not sure yet if i want an AP or AT mine though…

In my experience, Berlin is a bit rough until you get the MG-34. Next milestone is Panther. After that you are good to go. Also i would suggest unless something better comes in the coming update get the Gewehr 43 (golden weapon) if you have a spare gold order. One of the best guns in game and it helps a lot in Berlin axis grind.

G43K is absolutely insane with its burst fire. Transfer one from Normandy to get 2

how about you try these as a new player instead:

-Moscow vs PPSH and MKB
-Normandy STG and FG42, Jumbo and Panther
-Tunis with no pioneers

The problem issnt campaign imbalance, but its just that new players are canon fodder until like lvl 15 or something.

If it’s unplayable then either 1. switch your side or 2. play Axis in another place other than Berlin, don’t force yourself to eat shit

new players are always cannon fodder in every game ^^
