Hi,
the following is my honest opinion. I want to have a constructive discussion about it since this is honestly how I feel about the state of the game currently. That being said feel free to ignore the obvious forum trolls answers (not calling his name).
The Axis factions do not stand a chance on an equal skill footing in 2vs2s (Brits excluded). The US and especially Soviets are overperforming.
Both Axis factions lack in most of the relevant aspects of the game.
1) Infantry: Double BARs and/ or Guards eat any infantry the Axis can muster. Even when going Jäger Inf, the US and Soviets hold an infantry advantage.
2) Support weapons:
- Maxim spam is destroying a lot of games.
3) Tank destroyers:
- 60 range TDs for Soviets and US dominate the lategame.
- Su 76 spam has reached levels where Panzer IVs lose their purpose.
4) Abilities:
- The IL-2 skillplane has become meta.
5) Other:
- Two men sniper squads also are a common annoyance in 2vs2 and kill games.
In short: The Allies can easily swarm the Axis factions with infantry, TDs keep any tank at bay and this synergy is hardly counterable for the Axis. To me it seems there is no aspect of the game Axis aren't being outperformed by the Allies.
I can't be the only one seeing a problem here.
Haven't we just be witnessing a 2vs2 tournament last night where Axis dominated all matches independently of the team playing them?
