German event paratroopers with 100round mg

segesgsgg
You can add another 100-round machine gun like the mg34 with 100 rounds or…, or give the Germans a paratrooper with interchangeable weapons that can be armed with MGs (with the mg42 100 by default). or even maby mg42 with 150 or 200 round.

Please it was PMO when they did the event for the Soviet event paras and didn’t do German paras with it

No. Paras shouldn’t drop with heavy weapons.
I know it’s too late but still.

We can’t give two paratroopers with MGs to two countries while giving nothing to a country known for using MGs.

Hmm technically they can drop with heavy weapons it all depends on which height paratroopers will be dropped to ground also Romanian para PKM(PKM-K) wants to talk to you

most people think that parachutes have an effect on how much you can carry that’s partly right but is it enough to stop German paratroopers to equip themselves with ~4 KG MP-40 and only drop with pistol ? No the main factor is at what height you drop Germans dropped from 60 to 100 M which is just enough for parachute to open and have a land any increase in weight when jumping that low would cause serious problem while Americans and British Paras dropped at 150m to 300 m and soviets dropped at 300m to 500m (Their Parachute was manual so they needed more time ) and that’s the reason why most Allies Para can carry heavier weapon but 1thing this is a game so doesn’t need to follow these shenanigans and second all planes drop paratroopers at 500 meters above ground which is enough to counter weight of a lot of heavy stuff )(The closer you drop you need to be lighter in order for parachute to slow you down faster otherwise you might as well be pancake)

Yes we can :slight_smile:

If you disagree with my idea, you can give a reason.

I agree on everyting you say.
But at the same time I don’t think it’s good from the gameplay perspective. (Though, again, it’s too late to do anything with this.) Leave heavy assaults for the ground guys, paras have surprise and mobility (somewhat).

I was disagreeing with your conclusion that “we can’t…” - because “we” have, so your conclusion is self evidently wrong.

I meant from the perspective of justice and logic.

No no no no no NO. Standard issue should NOT be premium or event.

The belt fed MG 34 should be RESEARCH TREE

I’ve seen a lot of people prefer the mg42 50 to the mg34 75, I don’t know why we need it in TT? My goal with their suggestion was to nerf this squad…

typical german paratrooper

Ironically, the game does have BR5 paratroopers with 100 MG, but only for Allies.

Then those ppl are stupid.
Even with equal number of bullets MG34>>MG42. The only problem with 34 is it’s sights but you can get used to them. Other than that, 34 is superior in every way.
Unless I’m the stupid one and I don’t know some crucial information everybody else have.

Yes, that’s why I thought Germany should have one too.

Statistically, the mg42 has a higher rate of fire and slightly less recoil, and as you mentioned, the mg42’s sights are actually better.
Also, apart from the stats, I feel like I have better control over the MG42 and shoot it more easily, the MG39 is even better and easier to shoot with.

It’s a downside. You don’t need more than about 700-800 rpm (from my experience), anything more just wastes bullets.

I thought it’s the opposite. My mistake.

For me it’s not a thing to consider as I’m used to them.
Also devs did good job with 34’s sights in comparison to other games I’ve played.

I agree that bigger rof makes recoil more smooth. But the ammo consumption is a big pain.

Well, to be fair, the Vickers MG they use has a huge recoil. It’s an okay weapon, but nothing too crazy imo, particularly when compared to the other 100 rounds MG at BR5.

Also the weapon they get from the crate are rather mediocre.

But I think low and smooth recoil is very important, it’s true that RoF eats up more ammo, but you can shoot the bullets more accurately.

i want mg39 250 :rofl:
