Lower the MP18 and MP 3008 to BR

These are 2 SMGs at BR2 Germany that should be lowered to BR1 to better reflect their performance in comparison to other similar SMGs at BR1.I will be using the STEN Mk 2 and 3 for comparison, since they are BR1 SMGs that have similar performance.

MP 18 reasoning

while having 0.2 more damage, a slightly higher rate of fire of 690 RPM, slightly less dispersion (even though it’s still terrible) and 30 more velocity compared to the STENs, this is about where the pros end. It has a reload of 2.8 seconds, half a second longer than the 2.3 on both STENs ; 11 vertical recoil where the Mk2 has 8 and the Mk3 has 9, over double the visual recoil, and the magazine takes up a lot of your screen

MP 3008 reasoning

This gun is similar in the reasons above this one, but with a few differences. The pros of this gun are the 0.2 higher damage, 1 less horizontal recoil, and 30 more velocity. This gun has a 0.18 second slower reload; the same awful dispersion of 8.1; a much slower rate of fire of 520 RPM fully upgraded, where the STEN Mk2 has 630 RPM and the Mk3 has 570; over double the visual recoil, and less interior room on the sights then the STENs

For those reasons, to show that they are fairly equal guns, they should be brought down to BR1.Here are the stats of the weapons

MP3008 may require a decrease in BR, while MP18 is not necessary as it has achieved good performance with increased firing rate and damage, making it suitable for BR II. But I have always been confused about the current BR level of weapons. It is absurd for weapons like VG1-5, M3a1, MP3008, which only appeared in the later stages of war, to appear in Moscow and Tunisia

Hm, they could lower the dmg of MP 3008 and move it down in BR, since it is a crude copy of the sten gun and the STEN also doesn’t kill in 2 shots for what ever reason.

I would agree that the MP18 should be, and should have always been a BR1 weapon, and even suggested the same several months ago. MP18 and it’s premium squad should be either dropped to level one, or changed to changeable weapons loadouts so it can be used at any level with any SMG. IMOP every premium squad should have changeable weapons loadouts, especially since we are paying for them.

Of course, 99.99999999% of all suggestions to DF are DOA anyway.
