Most of the bolt actions rifles at BR2 are incredibly similar to BR1 rifles and don’t preform much better,with the only “large” difference being one extra round or a slightly faster RoF.BR1 is fun to play for BAs,but at BR2 it gets hard to enjoy it as much.of course the exception to this would be GL rifles,as them being BR1 is stuid.below would be the changed BRs
M1903A4-> BR1
Enfield P14-> BR1
M1917 Enfield → BR1
Ross Mk3 → BR1
Lee Enfield Mk.4 T → BR2
Mosin M44 carbine->BR1
Winchester M1895->BR1
Pre-war K98k->BR1
Sniper pre war K98k->BR1
Carcano M1891->BR1
MAS 36->BR1
Mannlicher M1895>BR1
Sniper Carcano M91->BR1
Sniper gewehr 98->BR1
What about the M93 though?it’s basically the same in preformance but it has a bayonet,and it’s fine at BR1,so I don’t see how it would be bad to have at BR1.
Even if they were hard locked to a certain que,which would be nice on general,but taking 5 round BAs where you can have some pretty nice semi autos and powerful SMGs,as well as LMGs isn’t much viable.
Standard br2 and i spank Germany, yeah i take SA for US Japan.
some pretty nice semi autos and powerful SMGs, as well as LMGs your point, what no rifle squad, unless you remove soldiers some will use rifle in any squad, and at BR2 SA are not great
While you are right about SAs being not great,they are better then SAs.but yeah rifle squads (With BAs) are only really viable at BR1 from how much there is at BR2 that kills quite easily in comparison to BAs (take the PPS,PPSH obrez,T28 for example).
Well, I don’t play Allies, but from stats from ER, it’s comparable to Mannlicher M95, so probably the same opinion. Plus, I think you can get it something like 50k XP earlier than M95.
Anything with a scope should stay where it is. Sniper rifles are far better than any equivalent bolt action, because the simple addition of a scope allows you to use the weapon at ranges where SMGs are no longer a threat. And the Winchester and Mannlicher m1895 are so much better than the other bolt action rifles that they do deserve to stay at BR2. You DON’T wanna see what console players with aim assist will do with BR1 Winchesters, trust me.
