Move Mkb42 ▶ BR3

Like M1921AC “Prohibition”, Orita M1941, M1921 Thompson 100, Type 100 MG?

You can ask him yourself.

Yeah that is my fault actually.

I argued that Panzer III N was way too powerful for BR2 - while also I argued that side skirts dont belong to Moscow, Stalingrad and Tunisia because they got introduced around 1943.

Also I successfully used Panzer III N even in BR5 matches because its anti infantry power, top mounted MG, smaller profile and good mobility made it the best support vehicle in the entire game.

The only way I kept winning BR2 matches was entirely relying on Panzer III N - which made all other BR2 vehicles obsolete.

Obviously the removal of that OP vehicle is showing now how poor Germany’s small arms are at BR2, but this is a separate issue.

Eheh, no. So don’t worry too much about it. He recognized himself.

And i believe the MKB was even supposed to be useable for all classes there at first. XD
But even as it was limited the soviets refused to play as an SF AVT was clearly worse than a shity AR.

What a different world we might live in if that was actually adopted.

The intent of Germany was to equip as many troops as possible with the Mkb series of weapons, never happened fully but it did happen with individual units.

I’m currently imagining in the game a 9 man infantry squad, 1 MG 42 the rest have STGs…

Terrifying concept… but also fasinating…

It would make Germans actually be able to compete with overpowered RD-44 + Fedorov + TMNT armor spam.
While right now they are too weak and you’d be better just to desert every time you fight vs Soviets unless you want to play with massive handicap and get killed in 1-2 hits from 30-100m away.

unique stories of fascist oppression

this topic was raised on the ru forum
I personally agree to an ICD of 3 br only if all PPDs go to 3br
В таком случае все встанет на свои места)

Germany did implement somthing like that at near the end of the war with 2 Mg 42 and rest of the squad being armed with STG 44s

At the time I was wondering how they justified that. AVT in Stalingrad was one of the best weapons in the game at the time…and could be on everyone…but it wasnt even in the conversation lol

Had alot of fun in Stalingrad on both sides

Yeah, previously BR II Germany was wheelbarrowed on the back of the Pz III N. I hated having to deal with it as Soviets and Allied troops. I seriously hope they buff SMGs, because Germany really needs it now.

Yeah, I know that’s what I wrote.

Yes, you can’t see MG34, ZKB-383 won’t be better than Lanchester 50. You wouldn’t know that German BR3 tanks could easily penetrate Allied BR4 tanks.

Since you mentioned so many activity weapons and paid weapons, should I remind you that you own MG13 (75) and MP41 (r)?

Create more jokes, everyone is watching.

It’s crazy that this gun still has twice the dispersion of the box PPSh while being more or less the same gun.

Still an amazing weapon and probably the best BR3 german smg, but probably the single best example of how soviet weapons sometimes play with different rules.

Well, it does have higher rate of fire than Soviet ppsh box.

These two weapons are overall very different from each other.

Yeah, how on earth is the MKB better than a AVS?

MKB has less time to kill than MP40 - with the difference that it has less effective damage drop at range and doesn’t change from a two hit kill to a three hit kill from soviet body armor.

MKB is pretty weak. Even if it gets lowered to BR4 I wouldn’t use it over Kiraly.

You are forgetting one thing - IF body armor wouldn’t exist, this gun would be a two hit kill weapon unlike PPSH41 Box because it shoots 9mm.

That gun is crazy OP against US players, its stronger than a Kiraly for sure.

LMG with ultra slow mov speed which is only good on defensive and zk-383 that 6/10 at best vs the best event weapon at BR3 yeah they cant’ compete with flexibility of Lanchester 50.

You wouldn’t know that US/USSR BR2 tanks could easily penetrate German BR3 tanks.

I own? If so then where it is? Because i don’t own it and only used it when capturing in from the enemy bot corpse

inferior to PPSh-41 box that is a TT weapon. Soviet bias is that strong. And you just admitted that Germany has nothing outside of prem/event weapons their TT stuff is too weak.
