I know German Axis are somehow the most liked faction in the game(and maybe in most WWII games), But German win rate has reached a ridiculous level post merge.
My own Germany win rate post merge is 90%+ at BR5(I usually play at UTC (GMT+8) 23:00). USA can still fight germans because they have nearly infinite tickets, they capture points quickly, and P47 is really overpowered.
But Soviets just can’t resist German power. Soviets capture points slowly, they need more tickets for spawn per squad, they hardly restore tickets after capturing a new point. They are usually attackers in Berlin and defenders have extreme advantage on these maps. Also, Berlin and Stalingrad are city maps and houses make it difficult for CAS.
Soviets usually find themselves in a situation that even if the situation is completely favorable to them, they can still easily run out of tickets and lose the game. This is unfair.
Soviets need more tickets and better capture speed, or weapon superiority(which is impossible in predictable future).
I don’t understand how people still complain about p47. Fw-190D is no slouch with two bomb sets and cannons, plus I’d say it’s even 3x better against air targets.
i wouldn’t really take the d-12 as gaijin’s modeling of fw190s aren’t really the best though it’s still a decent fighter bomber but if you want a stronger option try the 188
Soviets needs a sharper playerbase, usually the worst set of players are there, noobs not vets. I have played all the factions and soviets are always a total carrying.
I honestly think d12 is the best multirole plane in the game. You’ll abolutely shred any air target you hit, which is why it’s so much stronger than p47 in air - if you hit something, 90% chance that the fight is over. Against bombers you are then exposed to gunners for a much shorter time.
The cannons generally do something when strafing unlike 50 cal, and with the bombs you are good for two passes and can take out hard targets as well.
Of course HVARs are strong, but I’d feel just as equipped to do CAS in d12 and then some. And knowing the plans they had pre-merge, p47 will probably get nerfed to the ground anyway.
fighter plane with 10hvars ?
No idea why ppl complain.
30mm does indeed work, il grant that.
Bombs, well they are bombs. And apparently due to sikrit kreml documents those are armed with timed fuse giving you all the time in world to simply go prone to and avoid the blast, unless ofc it landed in your pocket.
As long as you get the jump on, sure what comes to dogfights its dogshit.
Because I guess having better guns, tanks, another plane with 20mm gun turrets and 50% higher bombload vs comparable allied plane is not enough?
I guess you are right though, so let me rephrase: I fully understand why people complain, what I don’t understand is why axis mains are such a bunch of sad whiners.
Yeah the OP bombs, as above explained thanks.
With that logic m2 vs fg42 is fine because you get more ammo.
And you can always flank the tanks, NP free advice from allied mains during pz4 v jumbo.
Yeah, the whining of panther v jumbo, allies totally aint whiners nice try tho
Soviets should get more gear since their progression tree is very airy if we compare it to European Axis and Western Allies.
But as for everything else, they are perfectly fine with what they have. Federov is the best weapon of the game, AVT and AVS are good rifles and more versatile than all other SF rifles just worse at CQC.
USSR asked for IS-2 1944 and got Germany the Tiger II(H).
We did it when we started Berlin. Wasn’t IS2, but Volks and sticks plus pz4j vs t34-85… when pz4 did NOT have a patched gun (didn’t work well). On my first match as Soviets Berlin I made 14 tanks kills with the starter t34-85 I finished 2 pz4 with HE cause I had no more shells…
So. It wouldn’t even help them, if they keep relying on better stuff instead of playing better indeed.
Resolutely oppose the abuse of tickets to achieve the goal to balance.
More tickets will lead to longer game time which always be terrible.
Weakening German tank is a nice idea.
Nah I don’t think FW190 D12(or gold D9 with 8x50kg bombs) is a good aircraft.
JU188 is whole better.
FW190 has a fatal issue that it will it will significantly and uncontrollably deviate from its target during flight, making it unable to accurately strike your target area. FW190 D12 has a 250kg bomb so to some extent it masks this issue, but compared to other bombers, it is far from precise.
If you only focus on CAS efficiency, you would prefer the JU188 because it has 6x250kg bombs. If you are pursuing versatility, then choose the BF109 G6, which has 4x50kg bombs and is very efficient in precise bombing. If pursuing air superiority, choose BF109 K4 or G10. The FW190 is not efficient enough in both air and ground control, making its positioning awkward.
The strength of P47 first comes from its excellent flight performance. It can always maintain the best attacking posture when it attacks and make every attack precise. This is the most important thing for elite pilots, and of course, payload capacity is equally important, but FW190 gives us an example of how an aircraft with excellent payload is destroyed by poor flight performance.
I finished 2 pz4 with HE cause I had no more shells…
