In one particular campaign, I could pull my hair out because I think it’s totally unbalanced. I’d be interested to know which campaign you feel that way about and if you still play it.
So that it is comparable please only indicate:
Campaign:
OP faction:
go to battle of moscow or berlin on eastern europe servers, select axis, enjoy CBT
Cock and ball torture or closed beta test ?
Moscow allies for sure
yes.
Yeah its a little bit hard to play against 2 different undestroyable tanks…
normandy axis, especially late game
Moscow
Allies
Want to humiliate the opposing team unmercifully? Welcome to the Allies under Moscow, the eternal spamming of PPHS, PPDs, and other bullshit, I hate this game!)
I don’t think it’s Moscow Allies, I bomb them to sh*t, I shoot down their new pilots, yak, biplane or pe’s as for tanks, last tank Pz J works, so does my premium PzIV , all it takes is for my team to spot then bye bye Ppsh, PPDers
Moscow: Allies
Normandy: Axis
Berlin: Axis
Stalingrad: bots playing vs bots
Tunisia: No idea, seems pretty balanced.
Edit: I’m taking faction balance based on what the faction itself offers only: it’s equipment. Playerbase is completely irrelevant to this and it’s even a bit dumb to judge a faction’s strenght with something changing as much as player count.
So. Just imagine we have 10 clones vs 10 of the same clones to gauge faction balance.
Least balanced campaign: Moscow
Op faction in it: allies Soviets.
Coming close:
Tunisia
OP faction in it; allies. Not as bad as Moscow, as Tunisia axis got good tanks and planes.
Then we have:
Berlin: it’s a weird place. At low lvl, allies dominate without effort, but as lvls get higher for both factions, it equalize…
Normandy: pretty well balanced. Can’t say which faction is strongest.
Stalingrad: both factions are fairly equal in power. Probably the best balanced campaign (both factions have very similar mirrored equipment) Soviets got better tanks a bit, but Germany got mkb which I feel is a bit better than avt. Either way, bots here are more reactive and Bolt-Actions are extremely potent.
I get to see the worst Soviet teams in Moscow with the team totally brain dead and mostly low level against full sweaty Axis team even worse with those who have premium squads especially the MG ones or the Panzer IV. The playerbase factor shouldn’t be ignored like Berlin Soviets being called “easy mode” but the reality is they need QUALITY PLAYERS in order to win matches instead of misinformed people thinking its easy mode where they ended up being dead weight because of not doing the objective and just play Vasily Zaytsev especially at the Goebbels Villa building.
In the case of Tunisia, its mostly Allies as people flocked on it and that being the more popular faction on that campaign in general
Normandy, depends on the team like if Axis have MP43s, FG42s, Tigers and Panthers or Allies spamming Jumbo + CAS
Most OP faction on any campaign? Its the faction where the good quality playerbase flocks on especially on every other new update which faction gets the coolest new toys with the most recent being Berlin Axis where many Axis mains wanted to get the King Tiger as soon as possible before it stabilized later on.
No such thing, kinda. Every faction in every campaign has it ups and downs tbh. If I have to nitpick then my candidates would be
Moscow Allies (PPP goes brrrrr and the idiocy of T50 gold order)
Tunisia Allies (Better vehicles overall imho)
As @TovarishToNy said the biggest issue is the playerbase. If you have lots of people playing for one side and the other side is sparsely populated you gonna have roflstomp matches.
Moscow
Soviet
I’ve played over about 6k battles, and from my experience here is the more OP factions.
Moscow
Allies
Normandy
Balanced (But absolutely spoiled with HE spam)
Berlin
Allies
Tunisia
Allies
Stalingrad
Allies
Tldr: allaies bias
german dint use fast fire smg like thompson or ppd/ppsh, on this for me developers have think more for belance thing
Because take tunisia for example axis have 3 identic weapon with different skin and probably future one are only copypast of other campaigns wy bother of play them if allaies even if them have the same copypasted equipment their one is better
At my advise is not equipment problem but progression system fault
I got both 7X% winrate at Normandy.
Allies 80% Axis 70% at Moscow.
And I just start playing Tunisia , played 20 games, got 90% winrate on Allies, so, I vote for Tunisia Allies.
Campaign: All of them
OP Faction: Whichever one actually has players
Probably Berlin Axis feels the most frustrating for me.
But my worst winrate must be US Normandy on EU servers, people seem to play as the Americans way less here than on NA servers.
