Raketens are too good

Permanently BannedIn 1v1, you're basically not allowed to use stock mediums against OKW. Its already difficult to use stock mediums vs OKW P4, however, the raketens have the RoF of the USF at gun and basically the penetration of a pak (only 10 less) and now have almost the same range with an extra crewman and retreat. There's little u can do to counter a raketen. I'd say it's at least as survivable as the Zis now. I think a slight pen nerf is in order

I don't like that it can still retreat but that would maybe be too drastic a nerf. Rate of fire OR penetration like you said is probably a good idea

Permanently BannedI just think SOMETHING has to give.
The rak is still the only at gun that can overextend for a kill without as much punishment since there's a retreat button and the 55 range actually makes it easier for it to overextend.

Make it 4 man, leave retreat as it is.
Volk escorts could use a little small arm fire buff too.

Sander already explained that removing suppression from Raketenwerfer was not a nerf.

not a durability nerf but a combat nerf. The combat penalties from being suppressed are very high

Raketen is mostly fine as is IMO. You could reduce it back to 4 men but then people would complain about it being wiped all the time again.
And yeah, if you allow it to be suppressed then it will mostly just take longer for MGs to kill without massively impacting it's combat ability.

If my tank is backing up with engine damage I would like to stop the rak in its tracks, not hope that I can do enough damage to kill it fast enough. It depends on the situation

The only way this unit will ever be 'fixed' is by making it more like a normal ATG. Right now, it simply has so many 'gimmicky' trade-offs that its going to be annoying to use (or play against) in one situation or another.
+Available in T0
+5 models
+Can cloak at vet 1
+Can retreat
-All 5 models 'blob' together for easy wipes, especially in cover
-5 less range than any other ATG
-Gun shield doesn't give cover (supposedly? might be bugged)
-Need to manually toggle cloak, cloak locks the unit in place
-Very inconsistent performance on bumpy ground (i.e. craters)

Agreed. But:
+Available in T0
If changed, add pfaust to volks after sws is bought.
+5 models
Make it 4 as the rest of axis TW
+Can cloak at vet 1
Removing cloak after it being nerfed is simply killing the unit, one should consider buff its mobility if so.
+Can retreat
This made the raketen unique and worthy of stealing. Remove this and cloack and simply just remove the raketen aswell

This are the defects of the model and buggy behaviour. Sadly they cant be fixed directly.
Maybe if raketen projectile performs a ballistic trajectory it could remove some of the ground collisions.
Lets be clear now, Im not against your points, im just adding my opinion to continue the discussion.

Yes it is too good and too cheap. Make it more expensive so okw cannot spam it.
Comes too early and negate LV plays.

It should have the highest pen of all AT guns, because historically it could pen anything the allies had iirc. It's the only latewar AT gun after all.

T34/76 is NOT a joke on my hands; Maybe on your hands you make it suck shit? but on me, No. I can kill a stug with a little micro, go toe to toe with a Panzer 4. Is it a joke? LOL T34/85 is apparently a very good tank. But no one says it "one hit wipe" or elefant penetration; up to a point i think this little medium tank just have too much health and too much firepower with that fuel cost.
