Balance Discussion / hmmmm!

« on: February 15, 2011, 09:51:16 AM »

having now played this game for some time in skirmish mode (me against the computer - every day!) I have a few points I think need addressing here:

• The soviet antitank squads with PTRS-41 and PDRD rifles - while they were reasonably effective against trucks and lightly armored vehicles they couldn't even scratch the paintwork on a tank, yet in the mod I find that 3 veteran squads can take out panther tanks and do serious damage to others....this is untrue and absolutely absurd! - They should not be able to touch tanks...at all even from behind...this needs addressing asap
• The Soviet rocket launching trucks - they are too effective against Tanks and in reality were used against defensive fortifications and buildings/ infantry positions - they also have way too much protection from tank shells as it takes 3 good hits to destroy them (similar to Tanks) and they are only trucks!
• Soviet T70 - this was a fast ant personnel tank and is accurately represented however the gun should be more effective against troops
• The Panzer V 'Tiger' or Panzer VI or better should have far more hitting power than they do
• The German 88's also need more hitting power and they need defensive power increasing as they do not have as much defense as other smaller antitank guns
• Please can the British have their dedicated sniper released into the mod?

Thanks for listening and please please consider these alterations

Balance Discussion / AntiTank Guns

« on: December 03, 2010, 11:07:04 AM »

I love the game and love this mod, but there is something I have an issue with and that is the armor protection offered by Antitank guns, I have attacked anti tank guns in tanks from every angle and they take 5+ direct hits to kill them (even from behind!) and they sit and destroy a tank blitskrieg with impunity, in reality while the later guns were effective they had little or no armor and could even be driven over by Tanks (many reviews of this from Panzer Drivers at Kursk who simply ran them over) With this in mind please could this be addressed in a future release? Running over them would be cool!!!

On a slightly different note I think the Americans are disadvantaged as it cots way too much before they get tanks.

Cheers and merry xmas to all
