About the weakening of FG42 and the related balance

“Decrease the ammo, that will balance it.” … this is my sarcasm on what the Devs did “for the sake of balance” … total shajt if you ask me

If we only want symmetry than give everyone an AK47 and Feuer Frei!

Look, certain sides were better at something.

Garand was better than Kar98, few Gw 43 will help to even the score but this is again on US side.

SMG guns are lets say relatively equal. Some are better at CR and some at MR.

LGM are on German side but German MG in current state are 1000 percent over US. Like you can fire MG34 and MG42 like a modern Assault rifle which is total stupidity. They should be limited to firing from from hip only if you are not lying down or if it is not mounted on something. This is the biggest advantage BAR should have, but it doesn’t currently.

But giving everyone an FG42 leads to whole theory of “This side had these guns better and this side had those guns better” to fall into water.

M1 Garand that was available to every US guy in Normandy is peace of crap out of sudden because it has to fight a gun that didn’t even arm 0,1% of German armed forces.

SMGs are very much in Germany’s favor, being universally better at long range, and being as good or better at close range via the Berettas.

But yeah…

Totally German by the devs :roll_eyes: :sunglasses:

Nice you can do the wiggle wiggle, great. Still has 50% more payload so kills more. You can kill a plane, sometimes. Great. Still pales in comparison to 50% more payload.

With ease. The Bf110 rockets have an explosive zone that is at least double that of HVAR and you can quadruple that at least if you compare it with the M8. So 6 insane rockets vs 8 good rockets.

Dead honest your bias is just stupid to argue with. If you really think the P38 rockets are even comparable let alone BETTER than the BF110 rockets you are having a laugh.

Compared to the contemporary that is equal. Could argue the 2 rockets are way better than the 2X50kg bombs but I wont.

They are EXACTLY the same as the rockets on the 110 - just fewer of them so obviously fewer hits - but hey hit just as hard, can easily kill tanks or complete squads.

There’s only 2 you so do actually have to exhibit a bit more skill to get results on every sortie - you cant just spam them over an area and hope to get as many kills as a 110 does - you know - things like know where they will travel relative to your sight picture, looking for targets from tracers, maybe even NOT letting them go if you don’t have a target, overshoot and come around for another look,etc

It still should be noted just how much better Wfr rockets are over HVARs.

HVARs had a warhead with 7.6 lbs / 3.4kg of TNT.

Werfer-granate 21’s had a warhead with 40.8kg of TNT.

The latter do effectively have the explosive radius of the 50kg bombs in game, which on the whole makes them better than either HVARs or 50kg bombs, IMO, given it’s easier to aim rockets and you still get the destructive potential.

The Werfer-granate 21 41kg warhead includes the weight of the casing tho - it only had about 19kg of actual explosive as far as I can tell - from the figures for the21cm Nebelwerfer rocket.

The SC50 bomb has 20-25 kg of actual explosive depending on which sub-type - whether cast or drawn body, etc .

but IMO the rocket is far preferable to the bomb for the reasons you state - accuracy.

And it is still way better than the HVAR - 2 Werfer granates have more explosive than 10 HVAR’s!

Anything other than FG42, MG34, MG42.

US is superior. It’s very clear.

Ask top tier users. If you don’t feel that way, your skill is the problem.

German users are quiet even in unfavorable conditions, so why do American users have so many complaints?

You’ll know right away when you start the game at random. Obviously Germany will take it.
Users already know that Germany is at a disadvantage and are not doing it.

Math says US is worse across the board for infantry weapons.

Tanks US has an advantage until we get the Panther devs have promised, which will decidedly give Germany the advantage.

Air is up for debate, as we can see from earlier posts here.

German rockets are frankly not comparable to American rockets.

HVAR is much better. Comparing it to a German rocket obviously has intellectual problems.

The fact that only the Ju188 on the plane can catch the Jumbo Sherman is already disproportionate.

That’s what happened with the 109 nerf.

Explosive yield of German rockets is 5x larger than HVARs per rocket and is similar to 50kg bombs.

It may be slower and arc more, but it is objectivity the more powerful ordinance in comparison if you can aim it.

Then buff HVAR like Werfer-granate.

You insist that german one is better.

Most of US guys think nerf. german also.

You are talking shit.

Let’s not buff HVAR, given it’s lower explosive yield is historically accurate.

We can compare HE loads, we can compare velocity, we can compare numbers carried - these things are directly comparable.

How are they not comparable?

After saying they are not comparable, makes a comparison.

Wow - well done - you’ve directly contradicted yourself, and done so with arrant (and arrogant!) nonsense!

Why? the HE load performs like it should, and the WG is not buffed - it is performing like it should AFAIK - it is the most powerful rocket in the game.

it carries almost 6 x HE load - how is that not better?

You are showing yourself hte expert in that area f’sure…

Are you an idiot who doesn’t even know irony?

I understand irony - can even recognise it - there’s none here - just you,covering the idiot side pretty well.

This forum is full of guys like you. Those kids are killing this game

If you think Germany is good, try Germany. Or try random because it will definitely take Germany. Why? Because people avoid it.

I didn’t say “Germany is good” - I said the WG 21 is the best rocket in the game - so that’s comprehension you don’t have either.

Good bye.
