i think the problem might be your english, his complaint is that the actual gun is bad not it’s implementation

No, I did understand it. I just wanted to point out (again) that it’s implementation is shit. And I will post it under every post about FG42 untill I get an option to remove / limit it and other similar weapons.

you don’t find it very different from the G43, the difference between the 2 is day and night

still day and night

Yeah, for sure

DeepL doing it’s thing, Lol

Never thought I’d see the day where the FG42 II is called useless. Just take off the scope and run around with it on full auto, it has basically no recoil lol

I dont know , i got FG 42 2 and i killed 20-30 people in a run.

With a scope, medium engagement is fairly easy but fall short at longer range with less damage (2-3 hits) and is slight less accurate, though the bullet drop is not that significant. Without a scope, I just use the gun as an assault weapon and easily wipe out 7-10 people in one magazine, the recoil of this rifle is so low (I use 5 star out 6 without scope and scoped with 3 star) that it is absolutely disgusting in my opinion, right next to MG 34.

The existence of FG 42 2 gives more chance for sniper squad to go for aggressive push in short range, but also maintain the excellence of medium to long range. Compared to Kar 98k, the bolt action clearly has the superior stats for longer range engagement but fall short in short to medium range combat. Majority of time people would rush B and there are more close range fights in practical. So, FG 42 is clearly miles ahead than both rifles if you wish to go for wide range of engagements.

The excessive dispersion on this thing is a fact. An unupgraded sniper AVS-36 (3 stars out of 6) lands headshots from 200+ meters with no problem becuase it’s dispersion looks like this:


The group on a default sniper AVS is smaller than a soldier’s head when shooting from 90m.
Now here is the dispersion when using a 5 star FG 42 II:

Over 50% of the bullets hit around the “9” circle that is the size of soldier’s head. you can waste over half of your ammo shooting this thing as a sniper rifle. Btw, Gewehr 43 is a semi-auto too but it has a dispersion like AVS-36 - that’s why sniper FG 42 II should have the same small dispersion allowing to score a headshot instead of just alarming the enemy that you are shooting at him. And on top of that, while being a high tier weapon, it still has the damage of a low level semi-auto like gewehr 41or SVT-38, while AVS-36 has base dmg of 13.2 which makes much difference (AVS will down most soldiers or oftew eliminate them in one hit while FG 42 II will give you a white hit marker.) In effect, AVS has no counterpart in this game.

Game has severe soviet bias with infantry guns, not just Fedorov/PPSh-41 but all semi/auto rifles too. Only gold order/event weapons can compete with overpowered Soviet guns. I think people should finally stop lying that FG42 II is much better and has better accuracy/less recoil than AVT-40/AVS-36 Sniper they are lying and are most likely Soviet mains.

Funny thing is, they give this “sniper” FG 42 II to the premium German paratroopers, and that is the only thing that prevents me from buying this squad. Choosing a “sniper” equipment from the crate and getting a scoped gun with twice the dispersion of an infantry semi-auto and a damage lower than G43 is bloody ridiculous.
