Fair nerf for soviets:

Mess Room
1

Hi, this just a fun brain project to consider how much soviets can be nerfed, and they can still be fine.

Body armour: remove bullet dmg reduction, as BD this is especially unfair for those low tier axis players.

AVS: 15.8 → 14.4 dmg
AVT: 15.3 → 15.1 dmg

RD44: 12.0 moving spread

Fedorov avtomat: it’s fine as is, but when released it had 12.6 dmg max. BR 5 assaulters aren;t meta anyways.

Fedorov madsen: 15.1 → 14.4 dmg

kv1: interior of turret should spall more

ppsh box: idk, give it some horizontal recoil? lower damage to 6.4?

SVT38: extend reload time, or clip reload. similar to Type 4

Fedorov 1912: 15.3 → 14.4 damage.

Everything else is balanced, but a few golden goose upsets the whole match.

Would you believe me if i said that in this game, the enemy combat strength is similar if not better than ours, and they were winning halfway too.

Even though Soviet weapons are undoubtedly OP now, instead of nerfing them, I would rather make global changes to entire weapon classes.

Yes, this is necessary first of all.

Instead, I would reduce the damage of all automatic rifles to 13.2, the same as machine guns.

Agree.

Their damage is tied to Autohey. When he reaches 13.2, theirs will too.

It is necessary to increase the penetration of explosive packages to 80 mm.

Agree.

Instead, it would be better to increase the damage of all semi-automatic rifles in the game to 15.3, except for VG 1-5 and M1 carbine.

Funny, I laughed)

Why 80mm? No WW2 vehicle had over 40mm of roof armor.

Mouse 55-105 mm

To destroy KV under track like other tanks.

7

Its still a bug that get fixed

8

Prototypes excluded of course

9

But did this prototype meet the time frame, or is it different?

10

It’s not a bug. KV could never be destroyed under the track. It has 75mm of armor there.

11

What? That can’t be true. The weight would be insane.

Understood the rest - but just learned a new word, man I gotta start refreshing my Russian again. With a bit more effort I could be fluent in 4 languages. Guess I am lazy.

So how much is it then?

I’m also lazy, so instead of remembering everything I’ve been taught in foreign languages, I just translate it through Yandex. :smiling_face_with_tear:

Okay, my first googling attempt tells mit 40mm underneath the crew, and 30mm underneath transmission and engine.

Also roof is 30mm thick.

18

Depending on the modifications 30-40mm
Well, and the release time.

19

Okay, uh now you are making things complicated, care to tell me where you get these informations from?

But it is known for sure that the roof of the tower is 40 mm
And the roof of the building is at its best And the roof of the building is 40 mm at best)

Open Russian sources)

You are right about the 40mm roof just looked, but I doubt that there were any KV versions with more than standard roof or belly armor.
