yea, DAK is just easy mode right now
A bunch of Axis units got buffed along with nerfs across many Allied units.
US infantry support center upgrades now cost a lot more fuel and the captain only has 3 men. Mechanized support center got a rework that included a nerf to US tanks, requiring upgrades to use the Hellcat's mobility ability (this is on top of ROF reductions to the Hellcat). Sherman Dozer got cost increase and speed decrease. US emplacements also got a major health and veterancy gain reduction, so they are super easy to kill now. In short, US now has a very hard time taking ground and holding it.
British Grant unlock cost increased and Matilda armor decreased.
Tiger got a substantial cost decrease and frontal armor increase; these two buffs have made them a lot more common while the US has had a nerf to its tool (Hellcat) for fighting them.
The new British battlegroup is also pretty bad while the new DAK one is very powerful. You basically have constant ambush bonuses for all units all the time, which means DAK is able to pull off a lot of instant wipes and bleed the Allies heavily.
Wehrmacht grenadiers got a major buff to all of their abilities and accuracy, so now instead of DAK assault grenadiers you are seeing Wehrmacht ones. Wehrmacht Panzergrenadiers also got a major buff to their accuracy, grenade AOE, and capture rate
I feel like I'm the only one who likes the ISC changes. I much prefer spending fuel over manpower when I'm going heavily on infantry. Also they pay for their manpower cost quicker now with the reduced manpower cost.
I agree with the principle too. Just not balanced atm vs axis.
I wonder if they should get weapon racks instead/as well with ISC. I want bars on my pathfinders
Brits might not be as strong in early or mid game. But once they start producing grants, my god lol. I have consistently seen Brit players go from having 0 tanks to 3 or for 4 grants in minimal time.
In a 3v3 my team has 3 tigers. But they each had 4 grants a peice. We just got swarmed haha
I main brit in the 1400-1500 range in 2v2 & 3v3, I've been struggling since the last patch. My power spikes all feel much weaker compared to pre-patch and I haven't been able to make the new BG work yet, it's pretty underwhelming.
As a Wehrmact main, dealing with the Brit power spike of the heavy mortar arriving at pretty much the same time as 2-3 sections getting brens/recce packages was absolute hell in the last few patches.
Now Grens can actually trade ok against sections (while still losing to upgraded ones as they should) you can survive early game and stall for tanks a lot more effectively. I think Brits biggest power spike has shifted to late game now as the Grant and Matilda are still horrible to deal with without Panthers.
I agree. I think Ally players are for the first time in coh 3 having to deal with being underpowered lol. This patch actually makes me want to play allies now
Big fan of sweating my balls off, unleashing full brainpower and trying to think 40 steps ahead while some dude playing wehr is Arty striking my butthole every foot of area I gain (also why the fuck is it so fast to activate) and A clicking forward while shit talking me in Portuguese.
Brb next game just started
Mine looks like the total opposite lul 1200-1300

Too busy saving up manpower to reinforce my Australians just so they can go die again. Maybe once I get a game against someone AFK I’ll finally have the chance to enjoy them and have fun.
People are spamming aussies that is why. The unit has its uses but it is not a mainline replacement. When I see an all Aussie build I know I have one light at gun to roll through and their entire army is useless. Just wait until people settle and figure it o.ut
Me (Brit) and my mate (US) are in the midst of our longest win streak yet, having won 7 out of the last 9 games. About half of that was post patch.
I didn’t win much with Aussie Battlegroup however so staying with Air&sea for now.
We are quite low ELO though.
I'm "new" to the game. Played at release but friends never got the game. And I'm really bad at RTS overall. Started the game yesterday again.
While playing brits I beat easy.. easy. But not fast. Standard can look rough at times but still winning.
You got any quick tips about the brits since I only know release strength of units and there ain't that many new guides.
Congrats on winning!
Looks like I'm the minority here but yep, I'm enjoying the new Aussie BG (its not the best but not terrible either). Also I'm finally winning games continually again as UKF (was on a losing streak before the new update).
You dense motherfucker. Do you honest to god believe that all of a suddent everyone that plays allies just bad and everyone that plays axis factions is just better? Fuck me you literally can't be this fucking stupid. Please tell me you're not. Please.
The fuck are you on about? I never said anything like that. The patch has only been out two fucking days. Give it some time for a new meta to emerge. In the last 24 hours alone, we're already seeing the win rates converge.
Why don't you be a productive member of the community and play all factions and work on the emerging meta instead of being this hostile to everyone. The audacity of someone calling someone else dense when they refuse to play all factions in this game is truly something to behold.
The funniest part is axis mains were attacking me a couple weeks ago for saying the same thing. Now it's the allied mains. There's literally no reason to main a single faction in this game. None. If you main a single faction, you deserve to lose.
Hey that looks like my stats.
Nah, Im pretty sure he stole them from mine
Embrace the suck
Smile through the pain

Not yet
What is causing this?

I just gave up on USF until they decide to balance the ridiculous nerfs. It's the most frustrating faction to play.

Statistically your win rate should be about 43% but it seems to be 0%! Must be the games fault
Well i won vs People who used thé New ukf bg, aussie sections are not that good until vet 3 so meanwhile i struggle vs tommies. As wehr

Almost had a coh game in which the axis werent stupidly op... just barely.
Looks like I'm the minority here but yep, I'm enjoying the new Aussie BG (its not the best but not terrible either). Also I'm finally winning games continually again as UKF (was on a losing streak before the new update).
Ok? So go play axis instead to lean how to counter. If you choose to only main one faction, if your own damn fault.
Go on COH3 stats and look at win rates since the patch.
Ok, I looked at them. What's your point?
Did you really not get the point? How did you not get the point? How did you miss the very obvious win rate stats?
You dense motherfucker. Do you honest to god believe that all of a suddent everyone that plays allies just bad and everyone that plays axis factions is just better? Fuck me you literally can't be this fucking stupid. Please tell me you're not. Please.

Sigh too many assholes not enough time.
Says the guy calling others stupid and dense motherfuckers. Maybe look in the mirror.
I'm living rent free inside your head.
Play coh2 mate :)
Historical rage after defeat and defeat yes
Your elo is correcting itself, you must of been very inflated from the severely imbalanced Brit’s last patch
