As everybody knows, this game is mostly asynchronously balanced, which means sometimes you don’t get the exact counterpart for the thing that another faction gets at the same level. Now Us has M2 carbine and Germany has Fg42 as their endgame rifles. I don’t want to compare these two weapons here because they aren’t even the same kind of weapons. Why not just add both Johnson M1941 and MP 43/1 to balance this situation? The only problem is that m2 has too much recoil(just like in reality), makes it hardly a counterpart of Mp43.

Who says they wont? Theyll add more levels. Was 25, now its 29. There are several weapons obviously missing (MP44, bazooka, 1919, panzerschrek) so I would expect them later. You’ll also notice how a bomber level 2 is also missing
NO.
Johnson was only in the PACIFIC.
MP-43/I maybe.

It actually was used in europe by the devils brigade made up of Canadian and US soldiers. Saying we cant have it seems odd seeing how alot of US weapons dont make sense
Some cool history of the Johnson 1941s use in Europe with the devils brigade Devil’s Brigade Secret Weapon: The Johnson M1941 LMG - The Armory Life
Nice hot take but essentially the Johnson was still used only the pacific
So was the 1903A1 and the M2 carbine. Jumbo chaffee. Shall I continue with the historical inaccuracy? Atleast this was actually there in theatre at the correct time, more I can say for alot of the historical “liberties” they’ve taken
Replace the 1903A1 with the A4, Replace the jumbo with a M4A3 and m2 can just get replaced with the m1 Thomson
Do you see it as a counter (M2) part to it cause I don’t, it’s counterpart is fg42 both of them need restricting ridiculous
It seems that it’s exactly the direction the devs want this game to be in the late period: everybody has an automatic weapon, no matter intermediate cartridge or full-power cartridges. I believe FG42 would also be introduced in Berlin(We’ll see). And even in Moscow, we have AVS36, which is also an automatic weapon that could be equipped by everybody, which proves again this is intentional.

M1941 Johnson machonegun was used by the Devils brigade in Europe.
We dont need more clownworld.
So by adding a weapon that was in the campaign and removing completely fake shit that’s clown world? Ok
Any evidences for that?
The Devils Brigade (the SOLE unit who used the gun in Europe) didnt took part in Operation Overlord and was actually more active in Italy than in France (where they were mostly active during Operation Dragoon/ Invasion of SOUTHERN France).
Why is that so important? This game is never intended to be 100% historically accurate. We already have many time travelers.
We dont need more clownworld. There are enough guns who are accurate. We dont need more broken stuff.
How many germans carried Breda M30s in Europe? How about Beretta 1918s? The group was in southern France for a fact until it was disbanded in December 1944. I would say it was more likely in service in Europe than Beretta 1918s and 1918A1 BARs
Still no.
Good thing it isnt up to you then. Considering the rifle was added for a premium squad I bet the LMG will be coming up soon
I prefer having no holes instead in my boat of having any holes at all.
