Pacific tank balance after merge

Only reason japan looks appealing now is because its overcrowded compared to us.
Balance situation of free unlockables is desperate.
First us vehicle can absorb any damage and destroy any japanese tank except one.
every us vehicle is potentially infantry sweeper.
And no, Japanese having good at rifle is irrelevant to the subject. Keep bad arguments for yourself.
And this is not about veterans or people who plays the game regularly.
And also no , “x premium vehicle is good” is also not the aubject of this topic.
a good player can kill us tanks even with ha-go sure; but subject is your average joe who has the patience of a five-year-old on a sugar high. When he tries the faction first time and gets instantly blown up by m13 and stuart spam in first couple of matches, he will totally quit the game or never play the japan again.

The only thing appealing to me in the Japanese campaign is that god forsaken anti-tank rifle, hate that thing so much, literally why I don’t play US tanks in the pacific anymore. Other than that it’s a bunch of prototype shit that I’ve never heard of so there’s no incentive for me to play them.

They did say that the Allied forces in the Pacific post merge would be restricted in some way so as not to upset play balance

Basically you would be limited in the stuff you can use as the allies in the Pacifc

What will happen to ta se or ha go then ? What will they face in matches ? Some random american trucks ?

Main thing that’s fun in pacific is jumping up on a M13 and knife the entire crew

like for 3d streak I play around 9x, I lost complete 8 matches/rounds full nonstop as liberator of Indonesia from oppressors
I’ve seen M3 Flammenwerfer giga ramboing sweep entire team w/ insta 60-70 kills while me as top player on other side, playing simple traditional way of warfare, no tanks only 20-28 kills, this is exaggeratedly unfair nobody on Japan side able to outmaneuver either on tank or on foot those flamer beast, it moved fast untouched feels like unlimited fuel that burn entire team w/ no flaws

also ye, wait for Sherman to even dominate the unfair competition in tank warfare
consider your population that enjoy enlist or they dry out of cancer unbalans matches

Japan has:
Clean bolt actions
Good SMGs
Good anti-tank tanks
Good aircraft
Really good AT rifle

You don’t even need a tank, you just need the Type 97

Japan used the Ha-Go all throughout the war. I don’t want any vehicles restricted. I want to see it on Okinawa and Iwo Jima along side their “heavier” vehicles like the Chi-Nu and Chi-To

Ironically I can cope with the M2A2 despite can’t use binos or aim with all 5 MGs the tank has(3 of them are fixed), the US AA can still damage their planes + I can have 6 engineers with Browning Auto 5 for the funni

But Japs tanks? No man, I wouldn’t even bother with those dogshite till one that doesn’t use a 37mm

Well, no one is speaking about the devil in the room. The SIG 1920 a.k.a the ‘Japanese STG-44’. This is one of my favourite weapons in the entire game apart from the FA, STG and Browning M1918A2. 50 rounds coupled with a superb rate of fire and non-existent vertical and horizontal recoil. You can wipe out two-three squads with ease using this thing. I even snipe enemies at long range while tap firing this gun.
Not to mention the Type 96 which has been raised to the next level by the devs. Previously it was borderline unusable and now acts as a laser beam. Plus you can’t go wrong while hip firing it at close range.
