Japan

[Bisky Riscuit]

Seriously, why does Japan always win??? I have played this game for some weeks now and usually win 2/3 games, unless I play as the US team fighting Japan. I have NEVER won a game against Japan.

What is going on?

I lost 2 matches as Japan when I got around 100 kills few hours ago.

It has to do more with the maps. Some maps are just incredibly one sided. (One team advances onto the point with complete cover or spawns really close to it. Or the point is surrounded by points easily taken by one side and offering cover to fire from.)

Japanese has the most broken tech in the game. Semi-auto rifle that can 1 hit down in early tier, recoilless LMGs and SMGs. The maps in the Pacific theater are also unbalanced because the defenders(mostly Japanese) have more advantages about "Combat zone" over the invaders, the defenders can easily spawn camp the invaders.

In my recent games (US vs Japan), too many teammates avoid objectives, sniping or wandering around. I’m fine with vehicle squads, but it’s frustrating when nobody’s inside the objective, especially after artillery hits, and there’s no nearby spawn point

Happened again. I've been playing ONLY Russian and German lately, but gave my US team a try only to fight Japan. Invasion. The Japan team steamrolled all 5 objectives with 783 tickets leftover. Gametime was less than 10 minutes. If this was just my personal stats, then that's a skill issue, but for Japan to win against the ENTIRE TEAM every time like this, I'm saying the developers need to fix something.

I always lose with Japan lol

[Zalzany]

Easy USA is newb team, japan like Russian tends to be vets who want to play the lessor factions. Trust when I play germans I see bad matches with russians who are argubely worse. But issue is you can tell real fast when its vets your playing with vs newbs and USA and Germany have highest newb ratios around makes it great when they fight each other horrible when they fight Japan or Russia lol

Well that is historically accurate for the early part of the war and later Allied successes depended on factors such as air power and naval bombardment that can't really be replicated in-game. Iwo Jima casualty rate in 1945 give you a good example, Japan was probably the toughest Axis power to defeat

I play Japan because I find them cool, but realistically they're the worst faction imo, I think the consensus that veterans play Japan to challenge themselves is probably true

Its not veterans, if you wanna be at a huge disadvantage 99% be Allies
1. Japan plays 2-3 maps all the time lol so they know ever little nock and crack. Allies get it on a rotation.
2. Match making is royaly F*ed for japan, there is not enough japanese players to correct battle rating. So if you allies playing japan and your BR3 your 2/3 going to be going against BR5.
3. People notice this switch sides cause whats a faster way to XP farm then be a BR3 player with all BR5 teammates against BR3 players?

Hardest faction due to the all the weapons and most of the vechs being way worse is allies. Just look at the specs on allied weapons and all others at there match up. Its so bad when I see German guns I pick them up especially MGs.

U.S. Mgs feel like your spraying a high pressure hose with no control
German MGs are like a garden hose with a spray nozzel while smoking a cigar drinking a glass of whiskey.
Lets not even go into tanks or planes lmfao Zero outclass about any aircraft.

I absolutely agree with point one
For point two... tier 3 Japan gets matched with tier 5 for others for the same reason

As for the things you say later on, Japanese MGs get a 20 round magazine, it's never enough to actually accomplish anything, and only very bad low tiers with a useless 37mm aphe get a coax, which is a huge weakness for Japan

Their tanks.... I'd almost call it dishonest to argue that they are better than anything, if we compare BR 3 we have the Chi-ha short gun vs T34s, e2s, and pz4s with the pak40 iirc, there are tank destroyers for Japan that can match(!) opposing armor, but they are not particularly superior, and for this situational tradeoff they lose ALL ability to support or kill infantry, down a tier we have the ho-I which is arguably better than the stuarts for anti-tank largely due to having armor that works and a nice HEAT shell, but that's its only advantage, as the stuarts it fights constantly have 50bmgs with 300 or so round clips and coax, as well as being far more nimble

Tier 1 Japan has the Chi-ha, Japans tech tree is so weird that at BR3 I still think it is the best tank available, but it's a glass cannon and the easiest thing in the world to counter

Every experience I've had with Japan, while fun, has been that they have the worst equipment, with some weird and quirky upsides, they're the orks or the minmatar of WW2 and I can't think of any reason to think they'd be OP, especially when I compare any of their tanks to even just the PZ2, they all cry out for a coax

[Volpe/Pinne]

skill issue, i have opposite feeling

[Facelessbrush]

I feel like I lose a lot more with Japan than I do with Germany, despite being in top 3 in the team most games and playing objective
