You can shoot 15 rounds with an M1 when a german with a Kar 98K shoots only 4 or 5 times.‘Selected’ Russian banks to be removed from SWIFT global banking network, as sanctions against Moscow grow: reports USA are agile and fast wheras Germany are powerful and heavy. I have way more wins than losses with the USA in matchmaking (1 vs 1as I can't play 2 vs 2, don't know why) against Germany or Soviet Union. The Chaffe is extremly efficient when well used, in small map, it is easy to surround your ennemy and destroy anything he has with a well placed APCR. You set it up in range of fortified position, let it shoot and assault with an assault squad adnd spam grenades.

You can beat anything with these guys, from light infantry to Jagtiger with the M18 recoilless rifle, dynamite and AT grenades.īefore that, you unlock the paratroopers who are very efficient as well with 2 MG, some Thompsons and M1 Carabines, lots of grenades.Īs a support you have the M45 Maxson which deals with infantry pretty well. Have you even tried the rangers ? Those guys are killer, best infantry in the whole game as far as I have tested. The same way sniper has no real counter in 1v1 making it unbalanced. When units have no counters than that is pretty much definition of unblanced. If the soltution to this is to play as good as you to win as USA then I think I will give up :p. Usually I will push on one side, but my random team mate will play defensively, letting the guy on the other side save up, then when his heavy tank comes out I have no counter at all as USA. Assault Squad 2 is just more of the same from Assault Squad 1. Scavenging weapons and creating havoc on the battle field. I much prefer the small squad missions where you have to keep the single group of 10 men or less alive for the duration of the mission or campaign. I wish every game was the perfect game where both teams have experienced players, but that seems to be rarely the case. I started with Soldiers, Heroes of World War 2. Probably just because I play with random people and newer players on my team more than you do. Which was actually really helpful btw, gave me some good ideas for infantry position on left flank on farmland.Īgain this is where the different experiences come in cuz i would say in probably close to 50% if not more of the none 1v1 games I play I see a heavy tank in.

I could have sworn I watched a video of yours from AS2 on farmland and you had a tiger in it :). and banking is not a option vs good players. There is no break to not spam infantry.Įspecially when fighitng soviets in locked are so many counters to infantry at the start.

This problem is also increased because USA relies on infantry so much with locked units off and also the infantry battles last pretty much all game in AS 2. You have no halftrack nor a AT rifle to counter theres. Stuart is also very rare in a 1v1 with good players involved.īecause of this the half track then snipers really destroy USA infantry. You have to rely on slow counters like the AT guns which are not good vs good players and you will be lucky to escalate the game to tank level beyond a stuart. 50 cal half track alone, really dominates USA at the start in locked units mode. cal half track, which alost better then the m20. Thus obvisouly sniper gets alot more action. Infantry is so importnat in AS 2, and spamming them is the way to play. Snipers in general are a bit OP, they constnatly top score in our tournament games for a reason. There is a way to counter a bit, which is single m1 garand buys for the first minute or so. Team games the problem is not that obvious. This is abig problem in 1v1 specifically. German AS spam - Agree on the assault squad spam front vs a good player. With all units avaiable the game seems a bit more balanced, but sitll in germany's favor. It hits USA really hard, while still leaving Germany with most of its core units. I did not notice this in AS1 so not sure what changed to make this happen? Locked units seems to play a big roll. If I am serious about winning a game I always play on the German side, to win as USA just requires much more skill. At the moment the only chance USA has is too push the enemies back points to prevent German players from bringing out a heavy tank however a panzer IV used properly can usually counter a push. In games with strong players Germany almost always wins, winning as USA is very rare unless there is a large skill difference between teams. Middle game the Panzer IV is very powerful, only maybe being beaten by the long barreled Sherman (which is more expensive). With locked units this problem is only further brought out, with USA being unable to bring out any tank capable of dueling a tiger. And in tank warfare with the panther and even jagpanzer being able to beat a pershing. Germany has the advantage in infantry warfare with the assualt squad spam and vet sniper.
