MP 18 squad is bad

The MP has way too much recoil compared to most of the smgs, and when you get to around 50 meters its useless. I think that if the recoil, both horizontally and vertically are lowered, then it would be worth paying for. Right now any other smgs are better with the exception of the maybe the first smg you get.

eh you gotta get used to handling it, it’s by no means a monster but it’s pretty good once you get a hold of it

It does have too much recoil from what I’ve seen in CRSED. The annoying snail magazine also blocks some of your screen. Just doesn’t seem like it’s worth the money.

Well you can make it work…somehow. But good? I would go so far an claim that any other MP in the german arsenal, hell in the whole game would do better in every situation besides sticking your barrel in the face of the target.

it’s an MP in close quarters, it’s better than plenty of others and it’s a fully upgraded gun just get used to it it’s by no means an easy smg to handle but it’s good once you figure it out

It doesn’t cost much so it’s okay.

Which SMGs are worse? In close combat it has an advantage above the FNAB and that’s it.
The MP18 is a MP 34(o) with worse reload time and way worse recoil. Damage, rate of fire, mag size are all the same but 0.5 sec longer reload for the MP18 and +110% horizontal recoil for -10% vertical recoil.
It has absolutely no advantages over other SMGs it’s just worse. It has a btter rof than the FNAB which makes it better for real close encounters but that’s redeemed by the FNAB’s accuracy over medium distances.
I mean it’s not unusable but barely sable because everything else is better.
I’m not cinvinced by the premium squads as a whole. They might have been OP in the CBT past but now they are just a thing for the firts hours. After 2 or 3 days playing the game the MP squads are obsolete and as soon as you unlock the MG squad the time is ticking for those premium squads as well. Currently I see no reason at all to ever spend money on a premium squad again. And that’s not because of the imo bad MP18 squad, instead they are just not usefl anymore - quiet contrary the 4 man squad will weaken my lineup.

Soo you would rather see P2W squads instead of squads that are balanced?
And tbh every squad is good as its player, i honestly dont have problem with any SMG, i like them all, and tbh early ones like MP 34 are in my level 26 army a regular thing.

->trying to snipe with an SMG

Thats a massive YIKES from me. The MP-18 is meant for close quarters in trenches. And it’s perfectly fine the way it is

you said it your self it has a better ROF that makes it really good at close quarters the FANAB which is also a great gun sacrifices fir rate and is less useful in QC situations

Yes it has a better rof then the FNAB and less precission for that. But at close quaters the Beretta, the
MP 28,MP 34(o), ZK-383, MP 35/I and also the MP 38/40 arejust better - same or faster rof, same or more dmg, better gun handling. And besides that all but the beretta are also better on medium ranges.
Like already mentioned the MP 18 is statswise prettym uch a copy paste of the MP 28 and MP 34 with worse reload and an unpredictable horizontal recoil which is twice as much as on the other two MPs.

@846391: No, no P2W squads. But nothing that’s obsolote after a couple of days playing the game.
Being limited to 4 Stars instead of 5 alone will preent them being anything like P2W because some of the most impactful perks are only accesable with the points of 5 star soldiers. Furthermore at least in Nomrnady and Moscow campain the weapons, which are not changable, are surpassed by weapons which you can get for free. Better or equal MPs are unlocked quiet early in the campaign and only the MGs are later in the campaign. And if you add the restriction to 4 soldiers in the squad to the calculation we are not talking about P2W but about Premium squads which might be a nice headsup for the first 20 games in the case of MPs and maybe a week or 10 days in case of the LMGs. After that point your regular squads will be better in everything besides the extra XP bonus for the prem squad.
p2W would be a squad that would be better than what regular squads could reach - like CBT.
Now we are on the opposite end of the scale.

All i hear iscrying for paying to win cause 3 late game smgs got better firerate and there’s an economy change you literally make more xp for orders now not just cmapign levels

All I see is a person who obviously likes that a certain part of equipment is terrybad and defends this state to the bones by ignoring facts or bending them. Wouldn’t suprise me if said person is american.

ā€œlate game smgsā€ - The MP 34(o) is the starter MP. Level ZERO! The MP 40 in Nomrandy is lvl 9 which is xp wise maybe 20% on the way to lvl 26 so late early or early mid game and the MP 38 is lvl 5 in Moscow, while the MP 28 is level 2? in Moscow. Only the ZK from those mentioned weapons is lategame.
So either you are lying intentionally to underline you argument or you can’t count up to 26. I doubt that you can’t count.

The real MP 18 is similar to the MP 28 and 35 ( H. Schmeisser says hello) that the in gamerecoil differences are not explainable. And it has nothing at all to do with P2W if the MP 18 would at least be in line with the starter MP. An example for P2W would be if the premium squad would get a weapon that’s better than the guns from the tectree.

So could you please go back an contunie arguing for your right to deny the Holocaust instead of poisoning reasonable discussions with intentionally dishonest, made up arguments?
