That is true, it’s impossibile to give 1:1 representation of weapons, but I would like their in game characteristics to reflect their real world performance as much as possible without breaking the game.

7.62x25 is similar to 9x19, but its damage is even lower.
Pps42 has 5.6 damage
Mp40 has 5.8 damage and Mp38 has 5.7 damage.
That seems reasonable to me especially if you consider that Pps42 has a bigger magazine and higher DPS.
Though it’s also worth noting that Mp41(r) firing 9mm parabellum only achieves 6.8 damage while the norm for max upgraded weapons firing parabellum is 6.9-7 damage so Darkflow probably recognises both Soviet weaponry and ammunition as lower standard quality.

actually, in terms of gameplay only, Kiraly is already very unique. I’d prefer Kiraly over Conders MG, as Kiraly deals better dmg, while Conders is basically just an all-round buffed PPSh.
It’s a pity that they don’t recognize the poor quality of German armor.
In any case, this weapon already has high damage.

The double standards here is absolutely shameless.
I asked for a 0.1 damage increase to compensate for a massive DPS loss.
You asked for a massive buff on the best TT weapon of the game.

Actually, Gaijin used to. Late war German tanks used to have a 0.98(iirc) armor modifier, and iirc some German tanks(and hilariously one British tank) had a chance of catching fire on non-penetrating hits.
In general, I don’t like it when devs try to model manufacturing issues. For example, T-34s and panthers had armor cracking issues. Easy enough to model, right? But that applies to HE rounds too, so how do you model that? Then you get to riveted armor - do you model the downsides of that? Basically at what point do you stop? Same with guns that had issues with jamming - should that be modeled?
I’d personally just give weapons their theoretical performance. It’s easier to do and you can always balance other factors(besides, damage itself in-game is used to balance weapons.)

how does this manifest itself? in the fact that I asked a question? this is not a suggestion , if you haven’t noticed. or do you think that 7.9 damage is not enough? and 8.0 will be what is needed. but why?
This is 1 more than the MP40, 0.8 more than the most powerful cartridge 9.19.
I would probably say when it comes to this topic it’s thanks to all the hidden modifiers or the concept of body armor or Fedorov.
No and they have a whole bunch of hidden modifiers and artificial buffs.
then why remind about it? you write it to that guy. I understand all this perfectly, but it was he who said that the weak damage of the USSR weapons is connected with its quality. although it is only a question of balance.
Do US soldiers have body armor and Fedorov?

But I already said why. 
Yeah right…
You obviously asked because you wanted the change, but knew it might be controversial.

But the axis also plays against the Americans. That’s the problem.
no. you still haven’t said what 0.1 damage will change.
I don’t think it will. So why do you want to make a good gun bad? Don’t get me wrong. If German weapons are only going to get worse, I’m all for it. But I don’t think that’s what you want.
Are you forbidding me to express my opinion and ask questions? I hope not.
The biggest weapon that irritates me is the melee weapon, since for some reason I always lose when you’re clearly pumping the enemy full of lead seeing the guts flying and he still wins the fight with one blow. Not realistic in the least bit, but hey, it’s just a video game. 
I rather like the melee…Except for the reach of the bayonet…needs more reach

I can agree with anything but this part. Man, I wouldn’t take this thing into my hands, it’s so anti-ergonomic. The blocky body, the sharp cutout along the wooden grip on it’s lower side, ughhh… brother, ughhh, what’s that brotha? What’s that?
Its rifle like, it was made this way because rifles were considered more elegant and that was important for police and gendarmerie.
Also it was believed that snipers would always aim for the automatic weapon guy first so the rifle like appearance protected the squad leader, at least in theory.
Rifle like - fair enough, but I’m talking about faulty ergonomics that would make your fingers hurt after 10 seconds of carrying this rectangular log - may I drag your attention to these edges:
And this is a grip on a beautiful rifle, Gewehr 43:
You hold the magazine 
, the only major issue the gun had, sometimes it folded in.
