Is Cranial still working on that begineers tutorial guide for all the SU buildings, units, and abilities or are you undertaking that now  ???

IIRC that guide was never finished and is already outdated now... but I will pass this guide to the balance-team anyways before relasing it

Because of miscommunication it was never patched like I asked (COUGH....)

So I'd have to redo and re-update it onto a new program which would take hours of my time....of which little I have :( Exams are closing in.

The only way to perfect balance Company of Heroes is allow mirror match. Can you do that?

And what that has to do with the fact we are looking for balancers? :-\... IMO you are pushing for a different agenda.

So, i have to create a new topic for have a answer?

The reasons(but not all of then):
First of all, the vanilla game balance is a trash, and looks like EF dont wanna change vanilla things;
Second, you never gona find the necessary number of imparcial high skilled players. Everyone have his favorite faction and most people gona try benefit his own.
Third, COH is so complex that should have one balance for 1v1 and another completelly different for 2v2

The answer was already given, you can use the search function to find it. In either case was NO.

Also, you are contradicting yourself. If we cannot get decent balancers how are we going to balance, let's say US vs US? Does allowing such proposal helps EF at all?

Unless you want a mindless game, everything here needs balance.

Also the play style is different. If Im correct Americans are aggresive and Wher is defensive. Pitting 2 aggresive factions with equal infantry or 2 defensive factions with med bunkers and panthers eerywhere is just....weird? This isnt Command and Conquer where you can pit the same faction against itself  :P

ehm, why????? you wanna balance US vs. US?
to get balance you need to play all POSSIBLE combinations of allies vs. axis and look for imbalance there. playing allies vs. allies  or axis vs. axis brings you nothing :D

edit: guess i finally got what you mean, lol. but that wouldn't change anything. all other combinations would still be "imbalanced".
