If you honestly think that what do you think of Soviets and the new MG which they should not even be able to carry or fire at the same time while running around ?
meaningless? i would take mg34/42 over vickers any time of the day. unless you go prone, it is pretty trash. every other MG in the game outperforms it if you are not in prone.
i think that all MG shouldnt be run and gun weapons cause that is not how they were used.
here is nice suggestion of what MG should look and play like.
basically it would turn MG from run and gun type of weapon to portable MG nest with higher ammo capacity. i would also add accuracy penalty for when not in prone with drum magazine.
Good luck on convincing the Soviets in the allies of that one then because they like to abuse that type of strategy so until it’s a dress I think the Germans need their own belt fed MG with 100 rounds.
outside of paratroopers and BAR/m1919a6 i really havent see anyone else using MG. people use vickers cause it is default on paratroopers, not cause it is OP and BAR/m1919a6 is basically replacement for assault rifles giving good automatic weapon for mid range engagements and it is not even used that much.
i cant say anything about rd-44 cause i havent played against it, nor have i played with it, but considering that half of my games post merge were with germans BR5, i havent really noticed anyone using rd-44
Why do you keep mentioning “German teamwork”, as if there is a huge difference in how Allied and German players play?
This is just the combined result of the number of playerbases, equipment level, and background reinforce data.
German players don’t have any special cooperative gameplay. Tiger II justs fight and dominate alone.
MG34/42 cant hit shite pass mid range, unlike Vicker than can hit any range due its laser accuracy, the recoil is wild but once you tame it, is the best MMG of the game hands down
Vicker is OP by default… I mean the soviets bitch and moan about RD44 being shite(is not), except I don’t see those wannabes stop exploiting the para crate RD44 in low BR
You are aware that .36 is pretty great considering average german MG is more than that? Also MG15 is -insert R word- because the bloom and incremental dispersion it has
