I’ve got a soldier equipped with the m2 carbine with the - 40% vertical recoil perk: even in this state, it’s very difficult to use past 10 meters. I think the real problem is the ads puts the gun way too close to the screen, forcing it to cover a significant part of your view; and jumping forcefully back with every shot is very jarring.
If they pulled the gun away from the players face a few more inches I think it would be in a much better place
M2 is a great smg. This way US has a full force of smgs as attackers and the Germans have a full force of better rifle men as defender. Lately it starts to understand the reasoning.
That said I would rather have a better battlerifle but there is not a logical filler for that.
That’s the problem, it’s not an SMG and shouldn’t act like one, but it currently does.
In my opinion, there’s a solid argument that there’s never been a better, automatic, full-power battlerifle made than the FG42, before or since, especially for WW2. I’d say you’d have to look at Switzerland and the STG-57 to come *close to the time period and capability.
close doesn’t mean contemporary, I’m not suggesting they add Swiss weapons or the STG57 to the game. Would be rad if nonsensical to see the K31 though.
it had a fast fire rate thats accurate but its a riffle not smg just like fg42 is lmg but is classified a battle riffle just like bar but the m2 carbine was a riffle just like m1 carbine but fires like smg but its not an smg
then why go Germans get a lmg for a riffle the fg42 has an insane fire rate but the m2 isnt supposed to be good it. in game this gun is trash they should lower the recoil massively
Am I seriously the only person who actually likes the M2 in it’s current state?
no i like it as well, just it’s sadly not that great of a gun
