Generally good idea, however there are 3 main concerns:
Boys ATR and PTRS are absolutely NOT equivalent to GrB, both USA and USSR should get M1 Bazooka at BR 1-2, perhaps with lower ammo count that usual. Also if we divide between American/British, German/Italian squads, they should get their “national” weapon where it doesn’t weaken the squad too much.
SMGs are highly likely to duplicate the weapons equipped by the player, so the current idea of getting MG via “Assault” kit is better. Just make them appropriate to BR (e.g. MG-13 and Breda mod.30 at BR 1-2 instead of MG34 we get now).
Lack of variation in the weapons you get between squads, e.g. now Soviet event squad at BR5 gets RD-44, premium squad gets DT-29 (should get MT to be real), the desire for variation mainly applies to said Assault kit MGs, but other examples are:
-Germany BR 1-2 Assault and Sniper (Breda/MG-13, Kar.98/Carcano) BR 4-5 AT weapon (Ofenrohr/PzF 100), BR 3-4 Assault (MG-42/MG-34Patr.tr), BR 4-5 Assault (MG-42-100/MG-15/MG-81)
-USSR BR 3 Assault (DP/DPM), BR5 Assault (MT/RD-44)
And so on. I can make a full list of possible variables and basically do someone’s work if people are interested in this, just to see a feature implemented.
Get in the soon™ line behind matchmaker maps soft rule, stars and crosses on tanks, customs BR/weapon settings and non-fake “placeholder” high BR AT guns for USSR and Japan
I made a quick change since there was a bit too much not needed changes there is some BRs that they better use the same old BR weapon since there is not better option not always is needed to have different weapon on higher BR since there is not yet enough weapons for this paras :
Question: When a Soldier’s primary and secondary weapons are the same. Has the ammo bug been fully fixed?
For example, the use of Soviet paratroopers in BR2 and BR4 .
2 handfuls of the same PPS43 and 2 handfuls of the same PPD40 are not great useful.
They will force my to always pick Uragan as primary for BR2. And for BR3 PPSh-41 box uses different mags than PPD-40 so they are not shared.
Shame about BR4 it’s Thompson or event/bp weapons or downgrading yourself to PPSh-41 box.
Yeah you got a point, BUT, the NVKD is an event squad, so I still believe that the type 2 would be an tt assault rifle where the STG’s could be an event squad.
