no clue.
that might be correct.
as in normandy, we had the Mkb 42 ( leaked while the one in the photo, is the MP43/1 ):
which, seems to have three versions of it:
than, there’s also the MP 43/1
and lastly, mp 44 and 45:
well yes, that makes sense, because stg 44 real name (to the beginning of the production) was mp 43
later while near of the end of the war it was called StG 44 (StG for “Sturmgewehr” = assault rifle)
pretty much.
they also had a devblog for normandy that reveals m9 bazooka, strumpistole, mk43(h) and m1928 “tommy gun” with drum mag

Germany has good MGs right now so nerfing them is nerfing germany. So add weapons that are good but aren’t MGs.
In my opinion if nefring one type of weapon is a nerf of entire faction then something is not right with the game ballance.
Exactly, and I highly doubt a Stg44 would be the one to balance the matter.

Well, we may try. It won’t be worse idea than giving FG to everybody I guess.
Both automatic guns, for some unknown reason apparently the automatics are breaking the game, perhaps because they kill people.
So switching another automatic to another automatic doesnt exactly make sense.

I’m not talking about switching them. I just wanted to “justyfy” adding Stg as devs already made stupid decisions (such as FG for everybody) anyway.
It’s not the problem of the weapons themselves, it’s the problem of historical accuracy (and also other things).

Historical accuracy ? Like the current AI so horrible that it gives impression WW2 was faught by mentally challenged so it feels bit weird that its the guns that breaks the “historical accuracy”

So add M16 to the game, it isn’t historical game so why not? Or better, lasers!
Bots are being improved all the time and they are the main distinction of the game so I don’t get your point.
tbh I dont mind, this games historical accuracy starts & stops at guns names, perhaps models.
For some odd reason I see the same people whining over guns but not for the rather massive issues that technically renders any historical accuracy argument pointless.

Sure, many things aren’t accurate, but why accept it instead of making them accurate? I don’t understand why.
It’s like “I cut my finger so I’ll cut off my whole hand, it’s damaged anyway”.
I never asked them to be accurated as games with 100% accuracy would be relatively boring.
And the state of the current game I highly doubt thats even the direction.
Balance > historical accuracy.

I think it’s funny that with the historical accuracy argumennt, the FG42 comes up first. Rarely anyone mentions the jumbo on normandy beach, M2 or M1 carbine availibal to everyone. If it realy was about history, you all would be up in arms about all of them. But no “FG 42 bad” is all i read.

So you must be new to the forum. Jumbo was criticised since about -3 days from his arrival, same with M2. But those weapons presence was “justified” by the devs (on one of the streams if I remember correctly). Badly but still justified somehow.
As for FG there was no such justification and unless devs want to write new history, there won’t be justification for the whole wehrmacht equipped with one of the rarest weapons.
Relatively.
But in my opinion full auto weapons for everybody is even more boring. We have CoD and BF for that.
So now explain me how equipping everybody with full auto weapons is balance. It changes gameplay but I don’t see how and what it balances.
Ok but it still is strange to me, there are like 200 threads about remove, restrict or nerf FG 42 and like 1 or 2 threads about the rest of those. Not a single one asking to restrict M1 carbine to MG gunners and support troops. The only thred about M1 carbine is asking for a buff.
Yeah and for historical accuracy we have games that are already somewhat historically correct.
By far more balanced than troopers going against assaulter / gunners with bolt-actions.
Not a single M2 on normandy, yet its there.
Plenty of Fg42’s on normandy.
Must have been hell of a justification in sense of historical accuracy.

Isn’t M1 semi auto though?
I just want to limit full auto weapons to clases that specialise in full auto weapons. That’s the whole purpose of the class system.
