Yes missed some patches in the last three weeks.
it makes sense i guess. but the bar does have less dispersion than other mgās though doesnt it?

good we got that figured out.
semi auto/auto rifles are not very effective as snipers anymore. just take of the scope, switch to full auto, and go rambo style with the fg 42 II
its a crazy good gun mid to close range
ok thank you

every player should. Even the ones who donāt think itās OP donāt think itās useless
Itās an automatic rifle with a scope. The gameās dispersion mechanics might be nonsense, but autos are going to be less accurate than semi-autos are going to be less accurate than bolt guns. If you want long range accurate sniper fire, use the bolt gun.
Yes but semi auto on first shot should hit. I donāt say anything against when you shot multiple times and miss.
Eh, thatās not how the in game mechanics work, or how real weapons work (cold bore is a thing), and depends on how well youāre aiming. Iād like to see dispersion for select-fire rifles be less in semi-auto than in full auto, dunno if thatās already a thing. Also, I didnāt notice until after Iād posted my reply that the others had already gotten you through the issue, no disrespect or hostility was intended.
Itās defenity my aim when an enemy walks towards me an d I hit on the body. Dismounted my scope and use Gewehr 43 Sniper as Sniper far better.
FG 42 is still good, itās just total garbage for anything past 50 meters.
I still run entire squads with it for the simple fact that most engagements happen under 50 meters, youāre rarely at distances where that dispersion genuinely becomes a problem.

damn, alright. seems reasonable since its an lmg. really didnt think the devs cared enough to give them different values

I have a squad with FG42s in Normandy and I donāt see a problem on the gun itself other than actually a killing machine.

Glossing over how that response to the post youāre replying to doesnāt make senseā¦
Is he handing you a garand clip, or is it justā¦ floating out of the gun through his hand?

I have a feeling that OP is focused on the FG42 II sniper rifle. Canāt outfit an entire squad with sniper rifles I could be wrong, but yeah, the FG42 rifle is a great weapon. Not sure if Iām alone in this but when I outfit a sniper with the FG42 II, I 1st remove the scope and use him as a rifleman.

Yeah, the FG42 is a great weapon, and it wouldnāt be OP if it were limited to gunners. Being able to put them on snipers too just exacerbates the spam problem. I canāt deny, it looks fun, and I understand why axis players do it, but itās damned annoying to fight against a guy whoās stacked his teams with FGs.
