In the United States, BAR is used as an LMG, just like its original role.
Why not change FG42 to LMG (or send it to the premium team) and assign level 23 to MP43?
Like Normandy, the United States only needs level 23 to have M2.
why not ?

Completely agree. I love this idea โ move dogshit FG42 to gunner weapon or just remove/replace it with an assault rifle, which is designed to replace Kar98k, and produced in a much larger scale(7000 vs 400,000)

We have listened carefully to the US position.
With the exception of personal firearms, the US dominates.
Addition FG42 was fully nerfed.

Thatโs what we initially suggested, but German mains whined they wanted to keep it in a rifle slot.
Its ammo was brought in line with its peers. You canโt get to pick the best of both worlds by having LMG ammo counts in a rifle slot and not expect it to get fixed.

FG42 was used as Rifle, LMG and Snipers.
For reference, Iโm at max level in both the US and Germany.
Restrict M2, FG42 and AVS to certain classes, done.
How may times do we have to go through this?

Itโs in a rifle slot so it gets balanced as a rifle.
If you want it to get balanced as an LMG with LMG stats, put it in an LMG slot.
End of story, I donโt give a shit about your level.

Gunner cannot use FG42.
Itโs a subjective opinion, but whether itโs Normandy or Berlin, Germany is weak.
I do play all factions in all campaign.
You are talking shit.
.>literally no one
which i agree. pointless โtweaksโ has been made about it.
weather for the main suggestion, if lock it behind a squad is next to impossible for the devs, than it should be limited to machinegunners for sure.
but not premium.
either way, a +1 from me.

You think for once If the FG42 is for Gunner,
Would you use the MG42? or Would you like to use FG42?
Please stop complaining without suggesting an alternative here.
M2 is upgraded version of M1. M1 and M2 had same purpose and thatโs to equip soldiers that are in need of weapon but need something stronger than pistol and something not as heavy as standard service rifle to defend themselves from the enemy.
So if we bring some realism to it every class expect rifleman, assaulter and machinegunner should have possibility to be equipped with M2.
โ restrict it to certain classes

i would.
perhaps i get in my line up the two machinegunners squads and use the offencive one with fgs, weather the defencive ones with mg42?
thatโs an alternative for sure
Iโm complaining?
The alternative is the ammo limit we got, and it works despite your whining.
Do you know where you are right now?
True but itโs also a game and as far as the game is concerned right now the M2 is better than a Garand.
Ammo counts could be rebalanced to account for that and make it a viable choice, but my hangup is- what do we give German support classes?
Why do so many people think so one dimensional. There is a thing called โinteractionโ and it includes interaction between fixes / suggestions we have on this forum.

I am neither German nor American.
But most of people here are very passionate about nerfing Germany.
It unbalances the game and itโs killing the game.
Thatโs all.

Germany OP or Germany Weak has nothing to do with this.
FG42 should not be available to every god damn trooper, Period.
It creates a full auto meta which is awful for a ww2 game.
It opens a Pandora box which never ends as shown with FG42.

Whatโs funny is that itโs so bad in general use it doesnโt need to be restricted. The only real use it has is in close range and to shoot from a hip. Iron sights are unusable in full-auto and if you switch to semi-auto you have basically M1 but with more ammo which you will not even be able to use because you will get killed by G43 or FG42.
