It is more suitable as a rival to Hyde than STG.
Except it canât compete vs Hyde as it has much worse dmg + bad dmg drop off
You fight most of the time at close-mid range and thatâs where Hyde has big advantage over STG44 due rof. At 40m+ then STG44 gets the edge as itâs more accurate but then you may as well use your MG or sniper rifle. FG42 II has lower dmg per bullet so itâs still worse than T20 as T20 can benefit from 1hk at longer distances.
Ver-Su-Merm, Omer, Le Bre, Collevile canât really let you to spam at the spawn outside of maybe one objective, ok so maybe itâs not half but 40% but mostly because they have added Bulge but even Bulge has some objectives that are completely hidden from the tanks unless they want to went all in.
itâs not just an event weapon but entire squad with 6 of them which not a single MG German squad can carry as many MGs as them. You would need to spawn two German squads to get 6x MGs. Vickers after buff itâs a pretty good weapon itâs recoil is similar to MG42 100 but it shoots faster.
Fail to see your point there, Ppsh-41 shoots faster plus it has way more bullets in magazine and itâs recoil is minimal so itâs better gun than Kiraly 3 hit kill doesnât matter with such rof
Peak delusion, i guess lower dmg per bullet and massive dmg drop off of typical smg are better in your eyes. I have no further comment for such foolishness.
Iâm not using Tommy 50 as itâs pretty mediocre and should be a downtiered to BR4 and USA should finally receive their 100 round version in a TT.
Yea no thoroughly disagree, from my experience a lot of the fighting does happen at those longer ranges. Also âjust switch to another weaponâ is a meaningless comment and has nothing to do with the weapon balance discussion at hand.
It takes a distance of like roughly 200m before the FG-42 drops to sub-10 damage, that is an extremely long range.

I didnât say at spawn, I meant at ranges long enough that infantry canât reasonably hit them with AT weapons unless they were like Kobe reborn or something.
itâs not just an event weapon but entire squad with 6 of them which not a single MG German squad can carry as many MGs as them.
That doesnât change my point that they were event rewards meaning that they are much more difficult to acquire and thus canât really be compared in the same manner as to tech-tree weapons.
Vickers after buff itâs a pretty good weapon itâs recoil is similar to MG42 100 but it shoots faster.
I mean yea the gun is in a much more healthy state now but I would still rate it below the MG-42 100, the slightly higher rof is not worth the significantly higher recoil.
Ironically, you never thought about it when commenting on any Allied submachine guns.
roughly 180 meters, But theres no reason for anybody not to run Vitaliy so that translates (1 hit kill/down) to 40 meters. 60 meters for the T-20
âŚnot really following the discussionâŚthought it was about IS 3

Pay to lose a tank to an ATR or autocannon, or even HMG - because the rockets are an ammo rack and blow up to kill the tank when hit by anything at all bigger than rifle caliber!
Killed 2 of the little Soviet ones in one game like that - the one on the T-60 - had an ATR in top floor of a building in Stalingrad and just shot down onto his rockets - KABOOM. He came back with a T-60 and T-70, killed them both with crew kills through roof armour - and he brought the katyusha back again⌠I guess he wasnât looking at the kill cam, or couldnât read it properly!

Ive been enjoying all the M26 T99 and calliope spamâŚStrafing with 20mms and watching the fire works brings joy.

yes - I might have killed a calliope or 2 with that over the years - certainly have lost T99âs to small calibre hits - thatâs what got me aware of the issue - and to get rid of the rockets ASAP whether you can see anything or not!

even if thats true its revenge for when the US/UK/Allies only had the Thomson and the M2, before the Pershing and Super Pershing, feel the pain of the Allies
A revenge with the help of the Developers so that the allied player base stops crying

thumb and pinkie pwsv a deserved revenge
sorry but its exactly the same level
if the t20 and hyde are a ten
the fg42 and stg2 are eight
then the m2 and thompson were six
that and the past br5 allied tank was straight up garbage
and dont historical accuracy me or where are my four other tanks for every german tige 1 or 2
Always with an idiotic answer as always, no matter how many times I mention the âbalanceâ thing to you.
Tell me which Allied tank in Normandy was immune to German Panzer Guns?
It doesnât matter M2 was already enough to fight against FG42, Thompson was better than MP40But I also didnât see the Germans with the Suomi KP-31 and PPSH-41 in their TT seeing that these weapons were used in that campaign, STG44 cannot be compared to the Thompson so it is useless to compare and I also mention you Whereâs Germanyâs revenge on Allied bomb and rocket spam? Why canât I see it
M2 equal to FG42 no if you think it is lets trade, Cant compare STG44 yes you can before the Hyde44 they were both the respective BR5 assaulter weapon so what should i compare the Thompson 50, ok rocket spam thatâs why you have better tanks but both sides have bombs, also i would like it better if both sides had equally good tanks why f2p only have one vehicle slot and most f2p dont choose to bring a plane.
With all due respect my dear, but you have come across some totally untrained, the IS-2 1944 can stand up to it, that is if you know how to use it, which many main USSR do not know since they despair with reloading (it happened to me at the beginning) putting the IS-3 in would be a catastrophe (and I love that tank with all my being) because the 88 could not pierce it unless it is sideways or very close, besides it had the best 122 ammunition, better that things stay that way, Iâm fed up with those who play with Germany and complain about everything, no more
well im sure it does nice pyre effect when torched properly but every player will find a best method of playing and survive with it eventually ⌠but i mean the whole idea of the availability of such purchase is weird , lets say there will be 50% discount on it and player is able to skip the complete tank grind and its tanker drivers for US forces for just 20⏠or maybe 30⏠, thats bit strange
how would people like if there would appear tiger 2 or Jagdtiger or E-100 tank for similar price ?
for a new player its pointles since he doesnt have anything else for BR5 battles to stand a chance (unless he buy more high end premium squads and feed the snail even more )
but other factions should have also the similarly cheap options to ease the tank grind
funny triangle

âOnlyâ while actually making the entire BR5 near unplayable due to constant HVAR spam.
Even that took years to fix.
One could say its still not exactly fixed, just bandaged.
