I propose that both the SVT-40 and the G 43 should be brought back to BR III because at BR IV they get outclassed by all the BR V fully automatic and assault rifles they face as they offer little to no benefit over them, this would both increase their use and variety in mid-tier battles.

Also the artificial division of damage between weapons that are essentially the same, like the previously mentioned SVT-38 & 40 and the G 41 & 43 makes no sense and is a poor way to differentiate between variants, accuracy, recoil, range, sprint multipliers or hell even pricing would be a better way of doing it.

As always, thank you for reading, please let me know what you think about this idea as well as any other you may come up with, XOXOs

If the gewher 43 and svt 40 are brought down to br3, then br4 will become more baron and it’ll just become a vacume between br3 and br5.

Just make BR ±0 and all is well (also make the dispersion cone when ADS much better on Semi Autos)

I thought about that, but perhaps fully automatic rifles could be brought back to BR IV, like the AVT and such

Fully auto rifles at br4 because making br3 unplayable is better then having br4 be unplayable

I’m just tired of having to face King Tigers just because I use 1 SVT-40 in 1 squad, I don’t want to sweat all the time, I just want to have some good matches with some more gear

Then just use the svt38 it’s almost the same gun as the 40

Why again the need for it to be BR IV then?

Actually if I had my way br4 and br5 would be removed
But it exists as a buffer between br5 and br3
If 4 vs 5 is unfair 5 vs 3 is doubly so
Ok just remove br5 it’s w garbage br but that will never happen it makes the most money like all games

br5 is the problem, but devs dont appear to be bothered by it in the slightest

the problem is not br5 itself just the jump from br4 to 5 we need a real br5

If you drop the G43 to BR 3 then the vast majority of people will never use the G41.

They should just give BR 5 (and all other BR’s eventually too) their own separate queues. So BR 5 only faces BR 5, BR 1 only faces BR 1, etc. The player base would need to increase for this to happen.

(Also give the SVT-38 a stripper clip reload to bring it more in line with G41)

I would actually take both, as the G41 has a bayonet (and in my opinion) better sights. The G43 on the other hand has a magazine reload, but worser sights, and no bayonet. Perfectly good alternatives to each other, even on the same BR. Though I do understand most people don’t think tactically in this game.

My man, tbh all 4 of those rifles should be stripper-clip fed, I’l gladly have that but people would loose their minds

I don’t about that, but maybe BR 4 fully auto rifles could be basically M2 Carbines stats wise. Problem is there’s only one faction with it. America. And Germany kinda has one, the Gewehr 43 8mm kurts, but it’s an old gold order weapon.

Simple solution, cut BR5 in half and put all the broken stuff into BR6. G43s won’t have to face T20s and Federovs. Uptiers would still be uptiers but not the equivalent of a double uptier

I’ve been an advocate for BR VI since forever haha I’d love that tbh and it would solve queues as well, they would be I vs II, III vs IV and V vs VI with up and downtiers in between, I would kill for the chance to have the game be like that

I rather Suffer with g41’s reload speed and Enjoy a Fun Game Than using g43 with amazing reload speed but i have To Out-Sweat Other Sweaty Players

Have them both be stripper-clip fed my man, the G 43s mostly were used like that, as well as the SVTs
