There are to my knowledge 3 varients of the MG42, the Moscow Pre MG42 varient the tech varient and the Berlin MG45, each distinguish themself in looks and stats, however what they do not change is the BR it is placed at. I bought the Early MG42 in the Moscow Campaign so i could explicitly play with the MG42 in the Moscow campaign, now the weapon is no different between all the varients and will regardless if i use it put me into all but none of the moscow maps. The Varient’s also doens’t significantly differ from eachother, only through recoil which tends to be lower on different varients.
So to fix this issue, i suggest lowering the Rate of Fire on the Early MG42 to 900rpm so its slightly over the MG34 maxxed stats so it could be put into BR3, that way it would grasp attention to the early version which would be a great pick at BR3 between the Moscow campaigns and of the rest campaigns.
Don’t know, in general I think rate of fire for the regular MG42 should be corrected to 1200 RPM first, before discussing other changes.
It makes no sense to have the most iconic MG of the entire war have a reduced rate of fire - which was iconic specifically because of its increadibly fast rate of fire.
That’s why there’s the regular MG42 that everyone can unlock, and then there could be one that’s not like the iconic MG which has lowered firerate. Now im not genius on Weapons Manufactory of the weapon, but im pretty sure to that it has kept it firerate between all its real life counterparts and that you are right about.
This suggestiom mainly comes up to make the other versions stand out besides they’re cosmetic looks and give the opportunity for players who do not want to move up a tier from BR4 and keep themself at BR3 between the higher and the lower tiers to switch between the MG34 and the Premium Early MG42.
Another delinquent who wants to deliberately change stuff for which I have paid for.
Honestly, go to hell. I am so tired of it.
There would much better solution. Moscow should just replace stalingrad in queue system.
Meaning, Moscow should be BR 1-5, meanwhile Stalingrad should be exclusive to BR 1-3.
We haven’t even got Mamayev Kurgan, Grain Silo, Barrikady factory, the workers’ villages, Jelshanka radio towers, Red October Factory, or any of the outskirts of Stalingrad, and you want to go west to Budapest and Prague?
mg42 fire rate is between 900-1500 rpm in base at what bolt is using, simply all mg42 to mg45 variant in the game use different bolt and have different fire rate, thee is nothing to change or buff
This is indeed a problem with many premium units and items. If anything, that squad should get into BR3 without a change, since that was the whole point of buying it - being able to bring an MG42 into Moscow.
Honestly if all map’s we’re avaliable for all BR’s so i could play Moscow i’d gladly move up a tier, its just that if a weapon as strong as the Early MG42 would move to a Tier like BR3 that fights BR1 and BR2, i’d think it be fair to balance the weapon so its equal to other weapon’s at BR3 and lower.
You can still play Moscow campaign with MG42 early in custom games.
If you don’t have premium membership I can host the match and set a password so you don’t even have to deal with bored randoms dropping in.
Budapest, Prague plz
