Lets try again - nerf soviet body armor, its OP and unfair and you know it

Yeah I’m tired of all these proto types and stuff like don’t get me wrong it’s unique but if we really did go down a HA World War 2 game we would see a lot of thing differently lmao and definitely a lot of unbalanced battles too like Tunisa 1943 Berlin 1945
Kv-1/2 being in 1941😭 Germans using jets and lastly US dropping nukes(this one’s a joke but you get what I mean lmao)

Well, only most infantry men would be armed with K98ks, while at least one dude has to carry the light machine gun of the group (which would be the Mg34 for BR1-2 and the MG42 for BR3-5 (both belt fed)).

Free French forces mostly recieved American and British weapons since most of French stock was in France/ couldnt be moved to Britain, which was either given to Vichy France or integrated into German supply system and colony/ exile forces had insufficent numbers and outdated weapons in store.

Given how shitty the maps are, this is actually better.
Dont think anyone will really missy shitty-ass ahistorical D-Day or Ver-Sur, especially if the Germans attack on D-Day.

Are there any though? Even SG isnt that historical iirc.

I think that is better than waiting for the Super Pershing and people bitching about reload time. And I think giving Soviets the A-20, Hurricane and P40 as TT planes makes me wonder how that is not already given.

I dont know. I think that one went out when the Soviets got Panzerfäuste, Thompson M1921/28 and Bazookas (not even including their premiums) and Germany the old skinned PPSh and the Croation mod.

Ahh okay but even then when it comes to it like maybe French squads and stuff wouldn’t both sides get the same equipment like don’t get me wrong we know Germany for taking French equipment but it’s kinda dumb that some French weapons that were used in ww2 aren’t used by French squads until now

issued in summer 1945. please tell me battle that was fought in summer of 1945? last battle was battle for okinawa that ended on 22 of june 1945. so technically it was in ww2, but it didnt see battle.

i know that… that is why we have relatively balanced game and not HA game.

most of the french arsenal ended in german hands. also there is whole vichy france and germans used french arsenal against allies.

Yes and no

“The M2 carbine was sent in small numbers but was used in the final fights in Okinawa” probably the cave fighting in Okinawa so yes it technically did see combat just not as much as other weapons

Well, France mostly fought with its main equipment in 1940 and 1939 if you include the Saarland.
French tanks for instance may actually fought more in Axis hands as they were used in the Balkan, Eastern Front and later even on D-Day (and I think they also gave those tanks to Eastern European allies). The Germans even modified tanks such as the B1 to their needs.
French infantry arms were partially even produced for Germany during the occupation, at least the MAS-36 was. And this rifle was kinda rare during 1940 as only 250k were made with vast majority being used in France only while most French units still relied on the Lebel etc.

Also, technically the French are not included in the Allies TT in form of squads beyond a event squad and a premium squads, which are technically not even French, but Arabs/ North Africans.

Correct terms is Maghreb :nerd_face: :open_book:

The impact of the enemy’s 10% body armor is far less than the 70% of the idiots in the team that caused me as much damage.

But even if you hold 35% and 10% at the same time, you still only have one extra chance of survival.
This does not affect the enemy’s use of automatic weapons with more than 5 rounds per second or semi-automatic weapons of about half a second to beat you into a sieve.

Its about mag size - if FG42 downs in one shot, you can wipe a squad rather fast without reloading, if you need one more round - which you do - your effective dps is greatly influenced.

While i dont personaly care about body armor its still strange that one faction has some ‘mechanics’ that others dont.

Mayby just add some ‘intrasting’ cosmetics to other faction?

Like magic gloves that improve accuracy…

Or some nice boots of stomping that increase movement speed

Or just make it bit boring let cosmetics be just cosmetics

If we want to save this Game or gain more time giving adventages to other factions are not the solution

It was counterpart to Mkb.
Regardless with little bit of stalinium it indeed is counterpart to everything.
But, since it wasnt used against germans that can be removed too.
War aint fair or something.

So ppsh vs stg’s ? Well why not.

For some odd reason GE lacks the extensively used captured ppsh OR 9mm variant.

And the enemy just stands there and watches you shoot his entire squad?
If every soldier takes another bullet to kill then you must hit every soldier at least twice to down or 3 to kill and repeat for every living squadmember.
So if you encounter an enemy 9 man squad the german player will need to hit everyone multiple times giving the enemy player more time to react to somebody wiping his squad and given the squad size and a non 100% accurancy makes sure you cant fully wipe the squad without needing to reload midway through.

The extra bullet also does matter as it effectively is halfing the RPM of the FG into just 430 RPM which is way lower than their counterpart of any othere faction.

Im dying with that affirmation💀
GE easily stomps muricans in br 2 completly agree lmao

But with soviets the things changes…
Specially the smg line where they absoluty dominate

And then AT guns where the m1 is cleary a
PZ lll N

And if You use your brain capacity the T-28 can easily take out pz n is like tiger 2 H and
is-2 use the environment to your favor and it Will work

Germans Have the adventage of having better players than soviets in low br so that the why You feel that You are dominating them but remember… Once You found someone who know how to use sov weapons and Game mechanics You Will suffer unless You use more skill

And lets don’t talk about br 3 or uptier💀

This changes all the time to be fair, I remember most Soviets avoiding high BR because of Tiger II H, which led to swarms of low BR soviet full teams - right now I feel like more soviets are playing high BR.

with soviets i avoid high tier cause of berlin. i just hate berlin maps…

He summed the whole thread up.

I don’t know why it always devolves into “but this faction has this weapon or vehicle, the other don’t!”

It’s not about that. It’s about mechanics that go OUTSIDE the current balancing system (battle rating).

So for that strange fake cosmetic, 2 solutions:

  • remove any bonuses it gives, make it a real cosmetic.
    Or
  • give the same kind to ALL factions; axis, Japan and allies included.

“Problem” solved, as simple as.
