is anyone who play Berlin campaign as Germany always get curb stomped and losing match in streak? for some reason matchmaking in Berlin campaign is the worst for axis player while other campaign is good or somewhat balanced for Battle of Tunisia and Moscow in my experience.
Game has too few players to populate all four campaigns with experienced players on each side.
Also lately developers just commit everything, to make new players quit the game. Things will change in Berlin when they introduce some new toys for the Axis.
For some reason, there are obviously fewer players in the Germans in Berlin than in the Soviets. This is why the Germans always lose.
Such as STG44? To be honest, I think that fighting fierce battles in relatively balanced Berlin is not as easy and fun as relying on equipment to crush the US military in Normandy. However, it seems that the number of senior players in the Normandy German army has decreased recently, and it is hard to see the Panthers and MP43.
answer from me that in these days is playing berlin;
Yes.
8 matches out of 10 are a lost one.
bots are often stupid when it comes shooting who is melting their squad leader and bot buddies.
( yes, mainly because of ppsh ).
so just like any campaigns, get stompted until you upgrade enough to stomp the enemies.
but regarding the players… all i can say is.
i just defend or attack for two points, decide to make 10 minuts dedicated to be bobby the builder and still on the top .
it’s germany after all.
h i s t o r i c a l experience of loosing.
outside normandy. there, there are more competent players.
in order to have somewhat fun and prevent of getting stomped is to play with actual friends.
but no, tunisia it’s actually worse ( in my honest opinion of course ).
In Berlin axis just not have players.
Guys with FG 42 2 not can be defeated.
Yeah once Axis gets as populated as Allies you absolutely won´t want to play the Soviets. Soviet kit excels early game but Germans get the supior small arms and vehicles later on. It doesn´t help that allies players shit the bed the moment “Rush B cyka blyat” doesn´t work.
Honestly most campaigns seem to have bots these days.
On normandy, more often than not, US teams are bots with 1-2 players, axis teams generally tend to be players, on Berlin, russians usually are players, axis teams are mostly bots.
Over in Tunisia, Allies have players, axis are mostly bots.
On moscow it’s hit and miss depending on the timezone. Though moscow tends to be mostly players.
Really makes me wonder how low the playerbase really is.
I think people greatly exaggerate the skill level of the average fps player. I just had two axis players quit on Tunisia that were a combined 4 kills, 8 squad wipes.
See I haven’t been seeing that issue, I have been playing on all campaigns and I haven’t run into the “mostly bot” team issue, unless it is because a large number of players quit. I think the problem is more of a faction imbalance, being able to select which faction you play as is going to create a player imbalance due to the fact if given a choice, a lot of people will not willingly play as the Germans.
Apparently, the only players for the axis in Berlin also adhere to this tactic.
one of the reason could be that the allies get the better starting gear earlier on like pps smg series + ppsh box at the mid lvl ish (SVT Sniper vs Pre Kar Sniper )and most of the interesting unlock for axis are the later stages or mostly last lvl and considering player do on average and without premium they are gonna take a long time to get to those lvl
