DF plz explain why Thompson 100 got P2W recoil than Thompson 50

Let’s see these stats

Color Name V recoil H recoil
Green M21/28 Thompson 12 3
Red M1928A1 Thompson 12 8
Blue M1928A1 Thompson 50 8 8
Orange M1928A1 Thompson 100 (premium) 15 3

As you can see horizontal recoil in Enlisted is way more important than vertical.
It increases the recoil offset in all direction by a random manner.
This is why a gun with high V. recoil but low H. recoil is still easy to control.

For the M1928A1 30 and 50 it got the same H. recoil as 8. but 100 ver. got only 3.
Which is absolutely nonsense since it is the same gun with different mags.
It’s more like a Thompson M21/28 with the similar recoil patterns.

So give Thompson 100 rocil like a M1928A1
Or change it’s name to M21/28 Thompson drum mag

Because it’s used by elite soldiers of 101st :shushing_face: It’s obvious they know how to handle their weapons, just like the NKVD bois.

Lol. Now compare it to the Sovie one

Dudes, the one soviets have is the M1921, which have the front pistol grip like the M21/28(I think 21/28
just means M1921 or M1928)

Name V recoil H recoil front grip faction
M21/28 Thompson 12 3 yes US TT BRIV
M1928A1 Thompson 12 8 no US TT BRIII
M1928A1 Thompson 50 8 8 no US TT BRV
M1928A1 Thompson 100 15 3 no US prem. BRV
M1921 Thompson 100 11 4 yes USSR event BRV
M1921 Thompson 20 12 4 yes Jap event BRII

That’s why I said M1928A1 100 can just change it’s name into M21/28 100 or M1921 100 like the soviet guys have.
Oh, and if so the model may have to change too (the grip).

Should add the RoF’s too, as that does help determine recoil

Tbh, I believe Thompson 50 should go down to BR4 and US should get its own tech tree Thompson 100 variant for BR5.

50 more rounds in mag makes way more significant difference than some recoil.

I’d rather that all the thompsons get a sizeable recoil buff to actually make them worthwhile competitors against assault rifles given their drawbacks of having less damage and about a third the bullet velocity.

Thats not the only thing pay to win about Thompson M1928A1 100, it also has the least dispersion out of all Thompsons.

I think Thompson 100 could get MG dispersion stats, considering its pretty much as heavy and clumsy as a MG - which would then make semi sense to have better recoil cuz the extra weight would be absolutely noticeable.

OR how about make a realistic reasonable overhaul of Thompson stats because they are all over the place. Alone the fact that the Soviet Thompson has ridiculously over tuned stats and even a much too high rate of fire…

they could nerf it
