Original Post — Direct link

The numbers are out. 1.6 Falchions fielded for every Silverhand fielded. Not to mention, 30% more rmats spent rather than horded by the Colonials.

This is a far cry from the supposed unending hordes of tanks that you claimed were on the field. You guys spent the last week+ of the war whining and making excuses for your performance rather than facing reality. Every single Warden on this subreddit, especially any prominent community members, need to eat a lot of crow right now.

Additionally, you need to take a good long hard look at your clans, whose greed cost you the biggest war in foxhole ever, rather than wrongly blame the devs for imbalance.

My mistake for not being clear on that second point. The following is NOT what I meant.

2 silverhands in stockpiles for every Silverhand on the field

I was following up on the numbers of tanks in storage, vs what were on the field. What I meant was that while there were ~1.6 Falchions per Silverhands on the field, there were a bit over 2 Falchions per Silverhands in storage (EDIT: To be extra clear, for every Silverhand in storage, there were a bit over 2 Falchions in Storage). This was taken from average snapshots several days after tanks were unlocked. So overall more Falchions both on the field and in storage than Silverhands (as expected), but perhaps a lower ratio than some may have thought.

Colonials were definitely spending RMats a lot more generously.

For the record, I don't think anyone owes anyone an apology. We definitely feel the buffs on the Silverhand in war 72 hotfix made sense. However, most of the data and level headed feedback pointed to a moderate adjustment, but not a drastic one (at least not at this stage).

Also to clarify. Does this mean that the total number of silverhands to falchions was 1 to 2? Or does this mean that for specially in storage its 2 falchions in a stockpile to 1 silverhand in a stockpile.

For every Silverhand in storage, there were a bit over 2 Falchions in Storage.

Hey thanks. Rolling out asymmetrical balance is rough, especially during literal and figurative server fires. We appreciate the transparency, thanks for doing that interview. I like to think we get so passionate and heated with each other because we all genuinely like foxhole, especially because it lets you get invested in that huge team effort that lets us get fired up about it.

No worries. While we do get heated feedback (which as you say comes from the passion/investment), we actually get a lot level headed feedback as well. That feedback usually just doesn't make reddit headlines. The majority of Foxhole players I interact with are very polite and reasonable.
