Minor weapon variants as "skins"

There is very helpful article about PPS variants differences:

There were at least 4 different PPS variants with minor differences
Leningrad early PPS-42:

Leningrad late PPS-42 and PPS-43:

Moscow PPS-43:

Suggestion: Add gun “skins” to game (minor variants), so player can change them for free or for bronze orders

Other weapons
MP38 and MP40:


Kar98 pre-war, wartime and kriegsmodell variants (and more):

Moreover, we can have new minor gun variants:
Beretta m38/44

STEN Mk.II with another stock (it is not Mk.III, just another stock):

Just different colors of wood:

And much more…

Yeah, that can be applied for every wooden part, by giving player to choose between dark, medium and light wood.
Jeez, while CoD can sell its zoomer bight stoopid pink cacophony, Enlisted could provide you 50 shades of wood XD

It worked well in H&G (before it got bought by tlm and their cod like skins and battle passes)

Had rifle stocks made of noble woods, a lugger with an ivory cross, and so forth. Nothing out of place, all plausible.

It’s you talking about the variety of minor gun variants. And literally in the very article to which you refer, the PPS-42 is presented with safety lever same as in-game variant.

This is a distinctive feature of the early PPS-42 and not all of them had exactly such a lever, but this is not a mistake.

…that doesn’t matter at all for the game purposes.
Unless devs want to introduce gun safety switch animation what would be cool but I doubt.

It always degenerate this way in most games, doesn’t it? R6s was okayish at first, then they added “charms”, then ugly paints… and so forth.

I liked the H&G customization (before tlm) thought. Always chose Oak or dark walnut stocks for my rifles, because I wanted to feel like a sir that has too much credits. Which explained the ivory cross luggerS (had more than one…), or the camouflage paint job on my… pz1 tankette, both worth at least 10 times the base item…

But I never regretted it!!!

True.
Most cammos were plausible and the rest wasn’t that crazy.

I always wanted to get my hands on G43 with “Gott mit uns” skin.

Oh yeah! I got each faction specific camos ond their semis as well. Also had war damaged ones.

Aaaand all of this will go down the drain! Thanks for nothing, tlm! :laughing:

Oops, I think I need some sleep at this moment)
Can you just pass devs the idea, that minor gun variants (different woods, stamped/milled parts, charging handles, safeties, stocks) as skins would be nice customization solution?

As far as i know, an idea of “historical” customization with different kinds of bluing, worn marks and wood colour is not new and has been discussed by devs for some time. One of the steps were implementation of sniper rifles wrapped in cloth bandages, which were given for Twitch Drops. But it is still difficult to say when and what the next step will be.

And for small parts that differed from gun to gun… I don’t think it will be implemented in the foreseeable future. It’s like with the interiors of tanks - it’s quite difficult and the big question of expediency arises.

At least, this is something, that could be sold.
But devs know better.

Now, when all unclearness is gone, I finally can have some sleep.

Then good night to you)

Speaking of those particular rifles… The axis one STILL has incorrect damage values (the Soviet one has been corrected).

Any way to notify devs about it? Tried so for as long as I can remember, without success.

I like this simple k98… Still use it even if it has weak, PRE bolt action buff values…

wasnt it fixed already ?
(both Kar wraped ones)


normal shop pre war kar:

exactly the same now.

normal kar for comparison (less damage)

or , where is the issue ?
