Bolt action need a damage buff

Exactly I do have a couple of fully upgraded BA on every campaign, and I maxed out all campaigns …

If I use a BA still they are maxed out. Things like the VZ24 and M91/30 can deal 17 damage maxed out and have almost no deviation.

Oh yeah VZ24 one of my all-time favorites!

I am really worried that people do not seem to get the whole concept of that things have advantages and disadvantages. Often OP talk or buff and nerf talk are to me like, SNIPOR OP PLEASE BUFF PISTOL NOT FAIR.

I think if you take in the cost of bronze orders which is low as they are 3 to 4 stars to max for a 16/17 damage rifle that sort of IS the damage buff people want

I love using BAs because all but America used them as their standard issue rifle throughout the whole war. The real problem is the game encourages wayyy too much run and gun gameplay which encourages smg spam.

Exactly.
Also if you have good aim you more than likely will win every fight against a SA or SF rifle, because they are not as accurate at range. I use BA if I know there will be places where I can play it strength, long range accuracy.
But damn, at times I even go into CQC with them, because at point blank range they kill, if fully upgraded. And in Moscow there is also the bayonetts :grin:.

So the majority of times you will be more accurate however a maxed out semi auto is more than accurate enough reliably land hits at 100+ very quickly. I’ve outshot many bolt action shooters with them. Weapons lose 30% deviation which is an incredible boost to accuracy

Oh it is? Than the enemies I fought probably just sucked lol.

But also to me with fully upgraded ZH-26 in Moscow it feels like out of 10 shots 3-4 miss … with BA I have not that problem at range! Maybe I am just unlucky?

I’ve never tested its deviation to be honest but now I am curious lol thing is you will rarely encounter maxed level enemies because of the cost in bronze to get them there in most campaigns. But yes in the end a max BA will be more accurate, semis maxed are still very capable though

i know you are joking about this but you know the devs would do that

Yeah that is the point, they are “capable” true, but not as accurate. So for reliability on long range I chose a BA over any SA or SF rifle anytime. And again I have fully upgraded high tier stuff!

You cant tell me a BA is more viable than a FG42 or a G43 with a straight face

Yea and if youd hit someone in real life theyd be dead, not knocked or alive

If you use them, that doesnt mean there is a reason to use them.

Tell me with a straight face that a BA is more viable than a semi or an SF

If youre at long range (of which BAs are for) support then yes. Its much more accurate and effective

The ZH and the G41 are just bad. They are really inaccurate, so best to use in objectives

Yea and the big problem is that most maps are close range oriented.

You have to push the objectives

probably the best solution, it will make sure that fully upgraded bolt actions kill in one shot, without changing the game too much.

+10% HP would be more than enough, 35% is making the game very “bullet spongy”

Yea it is. Vitality in my opinion should only be limited to a few classes like Flametrooper and bomber, not to meta classes

you dont have to do anything if youre long range support. But have no fear the bolt actions i love asw in cqc <3 one hipfire to the chest then stab them when they scream for mercy with OP guns in their hands

Long range support? You mean you like sitting on the bottom of the scoreboard? That explains it now your very “logical” views.

Id like to see you make me scream when i have my FG42 II with vitality. Youd have to shoot me 3 times.

How come you never see the problem of the simplest things

BAs are mostly useless endgame. Unless moscow axis where their semis are very bad at long range. But for the rest, just use a FG42 or a G43 or for that matter any gun that isnt a BA
