nah, some bot units are not that bad to make kills, also my bots in my unit can make with clever movement by mine 10 kills or more without my kills
I had a match where enemies were rushing points without any resistance. There was only me with mg squad trying to def.
They were capturing points so fast so I even had no time to place a spawn.
3 points were captured and 2nd place of our team had 4 kills.
That was real bots.
well yes, the devs need some fixes
i remember tom clancys operation flashpoint red river
i liked that commando options for the unit, there you could say that the bots need to flank or take your back if the pushing forward…
Then outright remove the recoil reduction perks.
They take skill out of the equation and make the game more arcade.
The Madsen and various DPs are nearly unusable standing comparatively, so yes they do which is a good thing.
Removing the ADS for actual MGs is the best solution since it’s both more realistic and not just a heavy handed nerf (even if only just perceived to be such) to one side.

Meant to point out if entire team dies to 1 gunner on 1 house the problem definitely aint the weapon.
It depends. If both players have equal skill, then it is the weapon being the problem.
I plan on making a detailed statistical breakdown on this. But I’ll quote myself from a similar topic earlier:
I’ve also noticed that a good attacker CAN solo carry their team to victory, while a good defender can’t. This is regardless of whether its allies attacking or axis attacking.
Also thanks @Old_Decard for giving me a loss in what otherwise definitely would’ve been a win.
We also shouldn’t be assuming this is how matches will continue to go since most players are low level and much of the gear has not been unlocked.
Well it’s as history goes. Germany did loose said battles 
Anyway.
I play as axis. So far it’s around 50/50 on win/loose rate here. It’s all about the teams around me.
I don’t mind loosing at the end of the day. I face it as part of the game.
Agree, instead of arguing about game balance we should just skip all that shit and go straight to defeat screen on scoreboard. Would make the game much more enjoyable.
I must say I made a half of a match by bombing with 50kilo bombs.
And yes, we gotta nerf Decard

You have just described how bots are playing 
Always love these topics nerf nerf nerf never try to balance the other weapons to get a bit close to the op weapons just nerf. Maybe I missed something in ww2 history where the enemy facing these weapons came up and said the other side couldn’t use the weapons cause they were so op. If you nerf weapons into the ground then other weapons become op but long as they are Russian side weapons you don’t care if they are op just cause its a German weapon you want to to be nerfed.

berlin every defense match of the german side the russian team just steamrolled through it all and then the rare occasion where germany is attacking russian defenses every time literaly we didnt even touch the cap point. the german starter guns feel like im shooting peanuts at the enemies and then the “glorious” garbage mosin nagnant instantly 1 shots and doesn’t even knock me. but i shoot the russian soldiers, not they just get knocked and then a ppsh spams me from accross the map. How blatant is the bias though, i dont think every german player on berlin is a newbord fetus that has no idea what computers. i only won 2 defense missions on berlin and those were when i first started playing and i fought against bots for 2 matches. after that every match was just loss. If they want it to be realistic where russians did have better guns at the time why the hell does germany get a Pz.4J as the starting tank. The T34 somehow magicaly as no pen Bs from a Pz.4J. i shot the weakspt on the turret, the front of the t34, it should be easily pennable from even medium distance. the starting tank should be a Tiger 1 or E. and remove that terrible weak K98k, like its not even fun to play with the complete garbage guns. we arent playing a ww2 simulator its a game
i mean that’s possible since usually the stereotype, it exist for a reason, of the german main is that they are a bit lacking up there. now are there german mains that defy that stereotype? yes there are but those are exceptions and those should be feared on the battlefield especially if they are working in a group. if it’s none of those 2 then it’s likely a bot though the only really imbalances in berlin that is against germany is the tanks and smgs since they get better lmgs, better CAS and better rifles.
Here’s a thought - you might be wrong…
Just had 2 games as soviets - the Bridge and Garden invasions. Total number of cap points taken = 1, total across both games.
(ETA: Make that 3, with 3 points capped total)
In both games I was the only soviet player doing any engineering, and the Axis ddefenders seemed to me to be just running around with MG squads butchering the soviets.
Utter incompetence from the Sov players - 6 dropped out of 1 game, 2 of the other - I saw premium SMG squads sitting back trying to engage in firefights, a tank fell into the river walkway in the Bridge game…
So I think you are wrong about it being the weapons - it is the players that matter, nothing else. Good players will wipe the floor with a team of fools, regardless of equipment.

This has been pretty obvious for good players for very long. When good players start new campaing/faction they are still top of the score board with basic unupgraded squads
You can easily win in Berlin if you just build rally points… I win most of my berlin campaign matches.

Asymmetrical balance.
Anyways I honestly run out of killing bad/bot players more often than not.
And I always end up wondering if are even trying?, To be fair from the start you got al sort of tools to support your advance or defense and many times I see teams lose without using them at all.
If you have to cross an open field, get a tank to provide suppressive fire.
If you face a tank, and you aren’t good enough to kill it with another tank, flank it with infantry and use a Dynamite bundle to kill it.
You have a had time pushing a position with too much cover and fences?, And arti strike can break those defenses pretty quickly.
Your spawn is too far away?, Place a respawn point closer to the objective with an engineer.
All of those are easy too do and most people should have squads able to carry them out.
Aside of that most kills are done with bolt action rifles anyways, those X weapon OP trash talk, usually means nothing, no weapon is way above everything else, except like the fixed MG-42s in some maps, and you can’t move while using those anyways, and they are meant to be used by anyone that gets to them.
As a note: please buff double barrel shotguns, regardless of faction, those simply can’t kill reliably at any range and deal like 0 damage past 5 meters, they used to be just right before the nerf, now they are useless.
