Proposal for the Implementation of the MP44 (StG44) in the Japanese Faction

If Japan don’t have assault rifle,please don’t add it.we aren’t willing to see Tiger put into Japan.Let alone the fake Stg44.
If in this case,why don’t add Japan into German research tree.

Ah yes, Call of Duty Vanguard was actually ahead of its time in term of historical accuracy

AS-44 and Hyde1944 never saw combat either.
In fact Japan had purchased and shipped at least 6 StG44 to its mainland so Japan using the StG44 in Enlisted would be realistic, or better said more realistic than what US or USSR has.

The alternatives are very limited too (only 1 prototype made, no picture of it and would struggle at BR5).

I have a better solution, introduce the current type hei as an assault rifle and add a 20-shot version of it as a rifle, now all the problems are solved!

the only assault rifle that Japanese could get is Fedorov Avtomat through an event, it doesnt belong in TT as well

do me a favor and shut up, it exist a verified document about the delivery of 6 of them, maybe not TT ,but yes as assault engie squad, it also exist a comission who I am trying find about a possible delivery of mp 40 and panzershreck :3

It’s not a fake. I actually bought it. The assault rifle that was recently added to the US and the machine gun that copied the MG42 would be weird.

So what ? Did they reach Japan ? Are there any proof they were used ?

If Japan can have STG, then every faction can as well, both the US and soviets certainly captured more of them than the japanese even bought.

Oh and for instance, both the brits and the US got T-34 for trial, does that mean we can have the T-34 in the US TT? because in their case, they at least reached the USA and UK

Assault engineers came with tech tree weapons for both the Soviets and Germans, it shouldn’t be any different for the japanese and US (if we ever have them to begin with…)

Yes please, this is at least 10 times better than having copy pasted content and it would give the japanese something that is… well at least japanese

I believe I saw one document for 6 STG and another for 9 STGs bought so they would have bought 15 STGs in total.

just look about Ho-Ri, just look about hyde,look to hei rifle, look the soviet cold war weapon, look, man, I know you don’t want it, but the game now is beyond to revert it, so flow with us

in my post I share part of the 6 version one

You know damn well thats not the issue at hand, its a complete vibe kill for the japanese,

Not to mention on your later point about it being too late to go back, since when did two wrongs make a right? We should seek to contain the rot, not embrace it.

Should Japan get a copy of every thing they even bought or captured, or hell even considered getting? I mean ffs. Japan has so much shit it needs before this type of stuff that is downright not needed when they have the single best SF rifle in the game, frankly completely invalidating any point of an AR for them.

I think Sina was cooking when he suggested that it should be made a 20 round mag and give them an AR version with its current setup. That way we can at least preserve the uniqueness of Japan while allowing them to get the assault engineers they deserve.

I should tack on here, I think the same of the panzershrek for the yanks, before thats brought up as a counter argument. I mean the Panzerfaust would have made sense as a captured weapon, since everyone and their mothers were using captured ones, hell captured panzerfausts ended up baked into soviet doctrine.

Oh please no! But what Japan does need is their second select fire rifle since they’re the only faction without a second one. So another ke7 as a rifle would most likely suit it well

Whats next PPSH for US? Soviet STUG?

Adamnpee is 100% right, if you want to use STG - play the STG faction.

I dont know why they added all these end game TT prototpe weapons when they could have just buffed/added more normal weapons.

Didnt need hyde, just the best thompson (soviets event got) plus m2 carbine

Didnt need as 44, federov fit the role

Type Hei would be more acceptable as an Assault rifle

Bit late but yeah

And the US didnt need the t20, as a buffed Johnson lmg without the shot spread would fit the role of an SF rifle just fine

The US didn’t build the t20 Hyde because the did not need to the Germans were still using the largely outdated bolt action rifles and smgs. Had the need arise the US could have put them into production. Japan on the other hand could not have done the same with the mp44. Japan could not even mass produce semi auto rifles, of course neither could anyone but the US. By mass produce I mean to make the the standard infantryman rifle. That being said operation sea lion would make a fun map campaign if we are going impossible alternate history. Simply because Germany made half a million stg44 does not mean Japan could. Just compare fighter and tank production between Japan and Germany.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to sell it as a team, if there are really people who are willing to buy it.

However, the MOD version added the Japanese Tiger tank, so there was no sense of incongruity in the presence of a STG.
