wow thats so wierd if they want it like this. so allied players by molotovs to help ealry but then lose upgrades capability after they spend more muni for ptrs? dont make any sense why they lose resources to not have any use in future very odd. and the atnade barrage can be walked out of after u toggle the ability on a tank. thats not fair after u spend resources upgrading and get something thats not really effective vs a good player

This isn't a change and isn't a bug. It's been like this for years. PTRS cons haven't really been good against good players in years (since they eliminated the bug that caused them to wipe team weapons). They're like every other AT infantry.

I did not said that. You asked irrelevant offtopic question and try to derail the discussion into Lefh vs B4. That is what called whataboutism.

This is your idea of a discussion?

Since this night no one need skill anymore since you only need some B4 and cons with at package and all is done to bomb the enemy back into the stone age.

And yeah... Let's nerf hard axis arty... So they don't even have a valid counter anymore.what was the idea?

Loom stream. They laugh their ass of when using b4.

It looks a lot more like a rant than a discussion. Between the ludicrous claims like the axis hard arty nerf, no counters to B4, etc, etc, it seems a lot more like a temper tantrum. I didn't ask any irrelevant, off topic questions nor tried to derail anything.

I also didn't disagree with any of the reasonable posts, like Kourney's, where they said the cooldown needs to be examined. It does seem fast. The vet gain seems fast also, but if they're going to tweak this then they should start with the cooldown which will affect the vet gain also.

There is seven axis commanders to destroy howitzers (5 wehr + 2 OKW). Seven! 2 clicks to get rid of 400mp 50 fuel.

Does the 105mm from Scavenge destroy howitzers? I haven't tried the commander in ages.

Easy 8 is still trash and finds no play in 2on2s. It gets countered by anything axis without problem, and it cannot counter anything. It found no play in the mod, the feedback was ignored, and the commander is still trash. I would have loved playing against more e8 commanders and more ukf but all I get now is soviet spam. Soviets everywhere. Incredibly useless balance decisions by the balance team, the changes to the e8 commander did nothing. Even worse that people still argue that e8 its good when it's just trash. I love my Ost buffs and changes but the state of the game me as axis versus Soviets now doing the same stuff every game but now against b4. That's all the patch did. Added b4 to Soviets. That's what we get as an axis driven community.

I don't think the balance team is very biased in terms of axis/allies. They do however, seem to make a lot of balance decisions based on how something does in 1v1's (maybe 2v2's also?). If you doubt this, look at the win rates for 1v1's. They're really close to 50% for everything except UKF. IMO, the problem is that they don't play random in larger game modes and often don't listen to the feedback that their changes are going to screw up balance in the larger modes.

In this case, the E8 is maybe a little better than it was, but still won't replace a Jackson. Even worse, when you compare this commander and the E8 to your choices as Soviet, it is trash. The E8 costs about the same as a KV1 or T34/85, but the AI is much worse. If you had access to either of those in this doctrine, you'd never buy an E8.

It gets worse when you compare the commander. Rifle company has no rocket arty, no long range arty, and nothing to destroy on-map howitzers. This makes it inferior to any Soviet commander with a KV1 or T34/85, and vastly inferior to something like Shock Army or Counter Attack.

If they buffed the AI of the main gun to match the T34/85, the E8 would be okay. This would be an ok-ish 1v1 commander. They would need to replace the half track with time-on-target to make it viable in larger games. Advanced Infantry equipment is underwhelming also. It'd be a lot better if it made either RE's or rifle squads into bazooka experts.

It would be nice to have an option to playing infantry company every time in 4v4's when you see LEFH's in the other team's loadout. That monotony is a large part of why I stopped playing USF.

Considering UKF is never going to get a complete overhaul at this point in the game's life cycle a first good step would be to remove all these totally pointless nerfs UKF got in the last balance update. Give back faster capping, faster AEC, faster and cheaper med kits. None of these changes made sense considering UKF wasn't even close to being OP before the patch anyway.

add in the pop cap nerfs to the Firefly and Churchill, and eliminating upgrades on AT sections
