Similar bugs were present in game for years. For example back in campaigns era, all german engineers could equip ARs at one point thanks to similar bug.
I’ve never heard about someone getting banned for it.

@MajorMcDonalds tell the developers to not fix this bug because i might actually buy it if they become another set of assault engineers
literally nobody is going to spend 40 dollars for a free tech tree gun otherwise (no, the uniforms or engineer buildables are not 40 dollars of value either)

Further more, we have requested this become a feature! Interchangable premium squad weapons would be hot items!! (As the camo is often unique)
My interest in these squads went from 0, to 10 (bug), then back to 0

Yes, I can exchange their gewehr-41 for other semi-automatic and bolt-action rifles. It’s much better than fixed weapons, which I don’t want to play with. The squad itself is in good shape, but I don’t want to play with gewehr-41(
and too expensive a unit for the one TT gun
and they need a sixth fighter with an automatic weapon to keep things fair!

premium engineers should be like this

im going to guess darkflow is going to be anti-fun and fix the g41w premium squad to be stuck with their g41w again
but im just saying, legacy premiums like this squad, the fnab-43 squad, the beretta 1918 squad, and the owen gun squad should all be able to swap their weapons like a normal class can
it would make those squads much more appealing

Strongly Suggest Changing the Iron Sights of the M3A1 Field Modification.
We all know that the iron sights of the M3A1 in have been modified and offer relatively comfortable visibility. However, the M3A1 Field Modification—a paid submachine gun—still has horribly restrictive iron sights. This is insulting for a premium weapon, especially when the game already has better solutions available.
The exact same issue plagues the M50 and M55. These two guns differ only in their stocks, yet their iron sights are drastically unequal: the paid M55 has unusably poor sights, while the M50 features revised sights that are far more comfortable to use.
Developers, please address this inconsistency: Premium weapons should at least match the usability of their non-premium counterparts, if not exceed them. Players who invest in paid content deserve better than being forced to struggle with outdated or inferior designs.

It’s so funny. This bug has been around for what, 2 years?
I bought the squad way back, when it was released. And I don’t have the luxury of switching their weapon.
Never used the squad post-merge

The really funny thing is that they know it is bugged, but they don’t mind selling it anyway.
It then feels like they want to deliberately bait more sales with this very convenient bug, lol.
Instead of fixing it, they should make the bug work for everyone.
Ngl, it’s really useful and fun.

If you selling collection/removed/etc. squads (especially when they cost a lot, like Gewehr 41 squad), pay some time to polish them.
- Be sure their uniform is in tact.
- Add something like backpacks, pouches and etc. so they don’t look unequiped.
- Be sure they looks good (this M3 SMG squad looks like some random squad, and G41 squads has Heer shirt, pretty sure it’s doesn’t have an option to wear other versions of luftwaffe uniform, like paratroopers)
- Be sure they have proper customization set for all map presets (hope G41 squad remain it’s luftwaffe style outside Normandy and have some proper uniform for Tunisia)
I can’t find proper words, are devs forbidden to touch customization by any means? People saying about that again and again, no reaction, and people paying money for that.
I can understand when something delayed/out of scope due complexity, but сustomization is clear QoL, all assets are here, just use them and spend some time on that)
-
Add additional engineer/AT-Gunner by default (since these squads are limited to sell, absolutely nothing prevents to reshuffle them to the current standart of premium/event squads). What’s a point to pay tens of dollars for non-equiped squad?
-
Double-check them for critical bugs before re-release for limited time.
Thank you

If gaijin was a company with good will towards it’s customers it would make the bug a feature for all buyers of the squad. If that isn’t possible due to some spaghetti code then original purchasers of the squad should get a second copy of the squad. Obviously that will never happen, as we all know how gaijin normally behaves.

Comrades, a member of the Russian forum named @Декард has discovered an interesting feature of this squad of premium German engineers.
It turns out that they can be given any weapon. It may be worth considering purchasing such engineers.

It has already been stated by helpers that this is a known bug and will be fixed.

Very sadly, I once again implore that it be passed to the devs that we dont want this “bug” to be fixed.

Leave as is for that “collectible” feel. If you are going to mess it up by fixing it. At least make the weapons swap able with whatever engineers are allowed to have.

There are event squads for both Germany and the Soviets that consist of combat engineers, and they have access to semi-automatic and assault rifles. The Soviet paratrooper squad (214th Airborne Brigade) can use a wide variety of weapons—and no one seems to have an issue with that. These 3 squads are capable of picking up different weapons during battle, but that doesn’t necessarily make them overpowered.
In this context, the new German premium squad—comprising 4 engineers and 1 AT soldier or additional engineer—even with access to a full range of weapons, isn’t particularly strong. Choosing more powerful weapons places you in matches with higher Battle Ratings anyway, which balances things out.
Let’s also not forget the existing German premium squad featuring 5 MG gunners (2 of which are engineers) all equipped with MG 42s, and 1 additional AT or engineer. That squad was priced at nearly the same level—€39.99 compared to around 3,800 Gold (roughly €34). So it’s a bit puzzling why there’s such a strong reaction to the new(old) squad, considering what’s already in the game.

Fix the game. Your new graphics updates have tanked the performance. You fixed the ladder two years ago. Good luck!
