Nerf the M2 Stinger

In Dune, Paul took on the name name Muad’Dib, something along the lines of a small desert mouse, don’t underestimate silly names.

One could wonder what balance ? It surpasses FG42 in every stat.

Type hei ? sure I guess, but far as I know GE doesnt have one.

Well but arent the boxes for 200 rounds literally just those standards US ammo boxes? I can’t imagine people actually shoulder firing those.

I think 100 rounds in general sounds like a reasonable limit to MGs in general.

Well you should go play Japanese then.

really cant say (probably not unless you can mount them on stinger). got this info from forgotten weapons so i havent really checked what kind of boxes they were. here is what ian has to say about it.

could be said for almost all MG.

In fact, the recoil of FG42/2 is the easiest to predict.

German firearms get nerfed most of the time or get outclassed by buffed fantasy weapons. When allied mains cry about “plz nerf germanz” it instantly happens.

Same right to all: Pls nerf the Stinger to its historical values (at least you US-boys still have more rof and ammo compared to the “historical accurate” MG42).

T20 with bayo, M2 Stinger, M2 Carbine with bayo that works great as an smg, m1919a6.

  • Superior AT Weapon at BR III and IV
  • superior 47-50 round MG’s at BR III and IV,
  • Two 75 round MG’s at BR IV and V
  • VG1-5 is better than the M1 carbine, frankly it’s better/more useful than the M1 Garand; not as “quick’” to kill for sure, but it’s good enough and has enough ammo in it that you can dump it at medium to close range and get some hits.
  • Armaguerra Mod. 39 at tier II, frankly underrated; has a similar problem to the M1 Carbine, and the Hei, and Otsu in that iit’s got a very small magazine, but at the very least (compared to the M1 carbine) has the decency to be far more lethal per bullet hitting… at least in my experience.
  • Flamethrower equipped paratroopers. (Event or premium)

I could go on… next time you should try running with the MG-13 and Zb-26 against the soviets at tier III and IV, and keep in mind that you’re not having to deal with the VG1-5

lmao, you’ve got a Tech Tree equivelant of that wepaon (also) at BRV, the MG15; “but the MG15 sucks” yeah so does the Vickers.G.O with it’s current fire-rate and dispersion.

I’m fine with the stinger getting nerf’d… german mains need to REMEMBER that it’s currently an Event weapon and make their case accordingly to that…

its br V

Dunno can GE paras use MG15 or not, as the requirement for f2p GE para was insane.
Unlike the M2 that was ridiculously easy to obtain.

I was comparing the Vickers G.O. used by one of the Event Allied Paratrooper squads to the MG15, a German Tech Tree Weapon.

Which is why I said IDK can german paras use the MG15 or not.
Since this is quite relevant as jumping with paras close to action or flanking makes quite differency.
So unless paras can use the MG15 its quite pointless comparison as no one use it as regular infantry.

Hear me out.
BRV MG42 with 200rnd belt and 1200rpm

I mean they’re paras, I don’t really care for them anyway…

the VGO feels like a SMG to actually use and whenever I do use the squad I find it’s been cursed somehow.

I wouldnt know since havent touched it since berlin.

But since we’re doing the tech tree / event comparison here you can actually get a smg with similar stats.

hear me out;
DT-39/40 (you know the tank version of DP-27? what about the tank version of the (problematic/short lived) DS-39?)

1200rpm, let’s have it also be a 200 round belt.

lol

excuse me I had a typo; meant V.G.O.; that feels like an SMG to use,

the V.G. 1-5 is fine;

the 30 carbine thompsons are nicer than the M1 carbine;

would honestly prefer them in semi-auto-only to the M1 carbine, even at BR III; if such a weapon were added to the tech tree;

you kinda didnt prove anything with bringing out all those weapons. except AT weapons which i agree are superior to US. german MG-s are rarely used(cause there are superior options to them), VG1-5 sucks (would rather use g41), armaguerra sucks cause it cant guarantee down with one hit past 10-20m (or at all against soviets) and it doesnt have magazine capacity (i prefer BA over armaguerra). also i havent seen flamethrower paratroopers since that event.

actually it is BR5 and vickers sucks same as mg15, just with 25 bullets more.

uh… not my experience; are you sure you’re using MG’s properly? they’re not big assault rifles meant for Rambo-ing everywhere… The VG 1-5 seemed quite good when I was using it yesterday… surprising given it was a last ditch weapon.

thank you, misremembered the tier of the MG15

Like the M2 that has more than enough ammo for such and smg recoil ?
Or MG 42 early or MG45 which both are premium and due to that not exactly that common guns.

Nah, yall already have rhe RPD
