yeh. mikkey mouses caused more harm to this game then anybody else
On a scale from 1 to 10 where 1 is fresh new squad with minimum number of inexperienced soldiers and stock weapons, and 10 is a maxed out free squad with upgraded endgame weapons, I’d rate current premium squads no more than 6 at best.
And I’m not even considering 5 stars because I have too few 5 star soldiers to judge, so far.
yeah no german players are left since they refused to balance the soviets. Most axis mains I know now play allies or play a moscow/normandy.

Holy shit L-O-L
None of this here
make your daily excel spreadsheet thread and do it there
nah it should stay like that.
I’m just not touching Berlin
and waiting for the others campaigns
Ight, I’ve seen all 5 topics made by the same users that encouraged and replied to each other and since this forum is “public property”, I’ll share my opinion aswell.
In my view, the best solution is this:
-
premium gunner squads: maximum 3 gunners + 4 non-gunners (maximum 7 troopers, 2 engineers, 2 radio operators, 1 sniper, 1 bomber, just like the default gunner squads).
-
premium assaulter squads: maximum 4 assaulters + 3 non-assaulters (maximum 7 troopers, 2 engineers, 2 radio operators, 2 bombers, 1 sniper, 1 gunner, just like the default assaulter squads).
-
premium trooper squads: maximum 9 troopers, 2 engineers, 2 radiomen, 1 sniper, 1 bomber, 1 assaulter, 1 gunner, just like the default trooper squads.
-
premium engineer squads: maximum 6 troopers, 6 engineers, 1 assaulter, 2 bombers, 1 radio operator, just like the default engineer squads.
On top of that, all default soldiers should be level 1, just like the standard squads (or randomly a level II or III soldier for each squad) and the ability to replace said soldiers should be introduced (although the premium weapons should be limited only to said premium squads and the ability to use standard guns should be disabled for: assaulters that are part of premium assault squads, gunners that are part of premium gunner squads, troopers that are part of premium trooper squads and engineers that are part of premium engineer squads).
That would still give a pretty big advantage over players that don’t have said premium squads, because at the moment, everyone is locked to maximum 2 default assaulter squads and 2 default gunner squads (I won’t mention the troopers and engineers because frankly I don’t find them OP).
If the devs decide to introduce a third class for assaulters and gunners, then I have no problem with the restrictions I mentioned above being lifted and all premium squads being treated like standard squads.
Peace out.
P.S. - I feel forced to copy & paste my answer into all 5 topics, so don’t give me hate for it.
that’s lame
this. anyone saying otherwise is just looking for content they are unwilling or cant support to be terrible so they don’t get FOMO.
Why flagging emopig’s post tho
this is one of 3 or 4 squads avaiable at 5 star soldiers, locked into a 4 man squad.
if you think this is OP:
in comparison to this:
you people are srsly over your heads.
or this:
is better than this:
no. it isnt. and will never be. premium squads need a rework. a serious one!
they need either a techtree to have diferent soldier types exacly like a non premium squad, or a unique aproach into them.
or , right now they are just unique weapons with xp boost on campaign.
at my level, they are nothing more than another option. a weak option in comparison to normal squads.
i dont need no more xp
i dont care about leveling
i want to fully utilize what we bought in comparison to normal squads.
please darkflow., consider a revise on premium squads.
Moscow will be ours! (this time)
No, premium soldiers should come max rank, none of this level them up and lose them to the academy or max level is 4 bullshit
Nah we dont need the older P2W bullshits back. Just buff the current ones a bit and they ll be fine…
If we allowed extra soldiers like before that’s all they need
They can’t get all the spastic perks like before since the rework DF did when we transitioned to OBT.
There’s no reason not to support this
In general i agree that premium squads needs either a change to make them more useful or just cut the price in half. But ofc not make them as they were before. Personally i would prefer to just make the their guns available for other squads. But this is my personal thing. Otherwise I think being able to add an engineer + another guy to a premium squad would be fine. I dont mind premium squads being worse then the tree ones.
I think you are not considering everything here.
If one squad gets more better guns, then it is more powerful, that is obvious.
Sure your squad on that picture is full of nice goodies. But a squad with 7 MG34s is objectively better than a squad with the regular options, at least from the “firepower” perspective, while its diversity suffers ( cuz no pioneers and bombers )
Now If we would take a squad with all 7 members having a MP40, then that would be a “worse” squad than the all MG34 squad, and maybe even worse than a regular squad.
Not necessary because gunners are better than assaulters, but because of the way these type of squads are balanced. Just look at the upgrades of an Assaulter squad and compare it with a Gunner squad. Assaulters are move diverse, they even get a sniper/gunner in the end, as we can see on your picture. Why? because MGs are the most powerful weapons in the game with the downside of not having a fast running soldier with good survivability, as well as having an overall worse squad.
So when ppl say premium squads were OP, they mostly talk about the Moscow Gunner premiums “chauchat squad” and “MG30” squad.
the new campaigns have lots of auto guns and regular squads are capable of matching premium squads with that type of “all the same class in one squad”- system… but Moscow? 7 Man one hit kill MG squad vs a mix of guns, half the squad having comparable guns, rest is inferior.
Thus I absolutely understand when ppl say prems are OP, because their experience with them in CBT was mostly negative.
So giving premiums the same amount of soldiers as regular squads, with the same amount of classes in said squads would not only be balanced by its own, but it would help create order in an already difficult to balance system, where axis have better MGs and allies have better SMGs.
Dont get me wrong, I absolutely say that current premiums are a joke, but I dont think the old way these squads worked was a thing we should desire to have back.
I hope you know your beliefs are an oxymoron, you moron
You realize you can’t have government that gives you free stuff and anarchy at the same time right?
Advocating anarchy to be free to steal others’ stuff, while advocating communism to feel like a hero while doing that? XD
