I feel that the nonsense stereotype power is very strong here.
Why people defend the bofors so strong with the known fact that is need some kind of nerf.
"Stop blobbing!" -> if a 4 man squad is a blob, then i totally agree with you
"use indirect fire, it's very easy to kill" -> brace
"during brace it cant shoot back" -> yes, but other units do
"but but but schwerer panzer hq does the same" -> give the bofors the same stats and i am happy
What so ever.. problems i encountered were those insta wipes. Even when i just detect one of this things and insta retreat my squads get insta wiped. unlucky retreat path, dead. Inf in a building: very unhealthy.
Medium armor like pz4, forget it. bofors longrange pen is too good in my opinion. "But look at those 40mm shells, realism baby" -> sure my friend,..sure, now take your pills and go to bed
What kinda practical counter we have.
Ost:
-mortars: soft counter (very very soft counter; soft like throwing pillows) but it works if enemy is mindly handycapped and dont use any counters or even better: have a mortar pit nearby
-paks: yeah, those brace thing again
-heavies: "wait what? already late game?"
OKW:
-leIG: *see mortar
-raketenwerfer: i wont try again
-stuka zu fuß: not very effective, but that is actually a good thing
-heavies: yes, or even wait for a jagdtiger
I think my post is totally over the top but just reading most of the post killed my nerves.
Kinda feel that it needs a rebalance including brace with a CD. But like every rebalance i hope they wont nerf it to dead.
But hey, dont forget, the job of the bofors is to LOCK DOWN an area. And yes, when they would nerf it and cant insta kill in max range anymore, people will avoid that area and bofors dont kill anymore that easy, but it doesnt meant it is overnerfed and doesnt do its job.
I am sure you also dont run into a schwerer panzer hq, if you now its location right?!
