As it stands right now, the Axis Semi-Automatic Rifles, are particularly weak against Soviet Body Armor. The minimum required damage to at least down a foe with body armor and vitality is 15.
This damage is achieved exclusively by BRIV Semi-Autos in the German tech tree.
The G41, G41M, Walther A115, Armaguerra, Gerät 03, FG42 and all Japanese Semi-Autos lack the damage required to down an enemy in one shot. I am a fan of the asymmetrical balancing of this game and seek to preserve it.
But I believe this is unfair and essentially makes an entire category of weapons unreliable and there-by not fun to play for German BRII & III, though Japanese BRII & III will also be afflicted once Japan vs Soviets comes out.
In order to remedy this I suggest upping the damage of most aforementioned weapons to 12.7, the same damage as the BRIII American semi-autos and T20 have, while the Type Hei, Type Otsu, and Armaguerra receive a higher base damage of 12.5. This would allow Axis to kill/down Soviets with one shot to the chest up to 10m.
Considering that the G41 has a reload of 4.8 seconds, compared to the Johnson at 3.4s, the M1 Garand at 2.9s, and the SVT-38 at 2.6. Its clear to me that the superiority of Allied semi-autos would be preserved.
Please feel free to share your thoughts about this with me.
Always active always useful, has no counterplay outside of neck/headshots shots, plus their guns are always in TOP1 or TOP2 no matter the BR
The most overrated tank in a game that dies in a single shot from ofenrohr/panzerfaust, it’s just worthless on city maps only on grazone spamming maps it can do something but then it dies vs tanks or engy at gun. Ho-ri has ticker frontal armor than a King Tiger. It’s completely nerfed as Soviet tanks can survive TNT/demo packs while Tiger 2 can’t. It’s pretty pathetic, when i see Tiger i see free silver.
And they have practically no counter even when you destroy them they can spawn three in one lineup, while tanks have countless counters. Soviets also have great planes including jets
More like Hei Automatic for all, Ho-ri + Kikka, and you have amazing no recoil smgs or even 50 round smgs at BR2 plus the best at rifle at BR1, free BAR clone at BR3 despite having one of the best smgs at same BR, the best TT semi at BR3. And cherry on the top p2w paratrooper premium with BR5 power at BR4.
Only if we can they destroyed BR IV planes all BR IV planes are dead thanks to Jets and the premiums that you paid money … very bad idea from the devs …
No I’m just playing a bit I’m barely a Private rank … how else … I love people that make apologies for how broken jets are xD BR IV planes are absolutely RIP just like BR IV as a BR no one plays it … the moment you are against BR V its game over really the power creep is too big between BR V planes,tanks and automatic rifles…
With BR 5 is the worst there the gap is too big between semi-auto rifles and full auto jet planes and normal planes and super heavy tanks.
Well probably you are very good at the game since you downgrade yourself but for the rest that we are mere privets we need more fair game fully auto rifles jets and heavy king tigers are a bit too much
At least BR4 rocket launchers are good equalizers when they get closer, while for rest there are no counter and you will get smashed to the pieces. There are only maybe 3 semis that i could still use at BR5 and they are not from the TT (ok maybe one is as type4 got downtiered to BR3 recently and it still pretty good as pacific is mostly fighting at mid distances).
Not super good, but I’ve been playing FPS games for 25 years.
I’m not an ace at aiming, but if you position yourself well, gather information, make good rallies, etc., you win almost all the time by getting great scores. And even with an MP40 in BR5, you can do some serious damage.
You can’t do much vs RD-44 spammers with your weak G43, you may kill one but then next one will pop and keep shooting, then another one, then they will start doing it again but with Fedorovs and AVT/AVS. Honestly it would be easier to just use bolt rifle and flank them than semi autos that can’t 1hk them anyway.
Against Americans it’s much easier as they can die in single hit and as their weapons are way less accurate and deadly than overbuffed soviets (with exception of M2 Stinger and Hyde)
