Imo it's better against infantry than all of those tanks you listed. Tiger I is pretty close but I think I like the Pershings AI power better
It's definitely still an iffy unit, but it's mobility is pretty unique for a tank of it's style. Panther is very mobile too but has a tiny faction of the anti-infantry performance
Essentially you don't get it to fight tanks. Jackson is good enough for that, so pershing is a monster against infantry
If anything it is my opinion that they made the balance worse than it was before. Even when giving feedback about things that would be overpowered they ignored it and released it anyway just to do a hotfix later.
(JLI, Fallschirmjäger, B4, Sturmtiger, Sector Assault among the many offenders caused by the balance team)
No one's saying things are perfectly balanced now either. But I much prefer what we have now to the past
Everytime Relic added a new commander, the gods flipped a coin (me paraphrasing George R.R. Martin)
Well, I might buy it just so I can have the pleasure of uninstalling it
Id like to think the .org community would pitch in together and buy it for you. Not because you need our help to buy it, but because we can't afford to lose one of our finest entertainers (and mapmakers)

Some of those things used to way more OP thanks to Relic. I mean you really gonna mention the B4?
How quickly people forget that the B4 entered coh2 with the "precision shot" ability. You could call in a single b4 shot with perfect accuracy. Was basically a cheaper stuka bomb with even less warning
Sturmtiger used to be a stock unit. Soviet windustry could give you like 9 minute t34s. Tiger ace used to cost 0 fuel. Relic had plenty of incompetence on their own
