Just had a game on 4v4.
Three OKW.
It was absurd. They had 4 luchs by minute 4. We somehow managed to kill 3 of them, then the p4 spam started. We killed some of them too. Then the panthers came on. Then the KT's came on.
I've never seen so many tanks in my life on this game. Not to mention the volks blobs were still there. Oh and goliaths are pretty hilarious too, it's a mobile demo charge.
The stats at the end were hilarious. We all had 2-30 kills, 100+ losses. I'm by no means a great player, but this wasn't even a contest. Why do Relic always do this? This is a massive over buff to OKW, but as they're axis I don't expect a nerf any time soon. I'll try this again in a few months when perhaps they realise that 90% searching axis might mean something is a bit off.

Literally every allied faction can have an AT gun on the field before a luchs can come out. Americans and UKF both have AT upgrades for their infantry as well.
Brits can get AEC before Luchs. America can get M20 mines before Luchs. Soviets are the weakest against it, but between AT grenades, mines, AT gun and eventually an SU76 I think they can handle it pretty well.
Not saying it isn't strong, but the whole "waah no counterplay" is wrong.
Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. Right now people are freaking out without digesting the changes and learning how to play against the new OKW. All their unit timings are different, it's going to take some getting used to before we can look at it more objectively.

There is counter-play but it is limited. If your AT gun is not in the exact right position the Luchs blows by.

That's why you have mines/infantry AT.
Don't get me wrong, I hate a 6 minute luchs as much as anybody, but it's quite counterable. What's scarier to me is the 6.2 minute Puma that absolutely decimates any allied light vehicle play without a ton of supporting units.

Mate your theory crafting so hard here

No I'm not. It's exactly the fucking same with germans vs stuart. It's entirely a L2P issue.
Brits got AEC, which hard counters Luchs really hard. PIATs are also pretty good if you can use attack ground. Bofors does quite a bit of damage to it too, moreso to rear armour though.

It's the same as germans with stuart? Mate do you even play this game? OKW have shrecks on basic inf... ostheer have faust on grens... What if they get a puma? What if Ostheer get a 222? How do I counter that as brit? I have to spend 75 fuel to get an AEC? Okay mate

Don't drive your fucking AEC blindly at them, obviously.
Learn to use PIATS
Learn to use mines.
If you're really bad build a bofors and hide behind it.
If you were COMPLETELY reliant on the sniper to counter such vehicles before, then that's your problem. Brits have lots more options than that. He still does soft vehicle damage too.
