Testing the next update (April 17th)

@Adamnpee

It would literally kill most of the crew. It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t destroy the tank in one hit.

except it won’t pen most of the time anyway

@Adamnpee

(Btw, all you need to do for OHK is to aim for ammunition )

good luck with that as it does no dmg or little dmg to modules or shells disappear constantly doing nothing

@Adamnpee

Plus Pz III N was never about hunting down other tanks. But mainly about annihilating infantry.

yeah and now it’s bad at both, better to use pz4e before they nerf-kill it too

@IceySmooth

Bug with the PPD1929 accuracy - shots land above aiming consistently, as well as muzzle flash appearing to left of weapon - ie almost off screen!

Thanks, forwarded

@Аdolf Rizzler

Sniper AVS-36 seems to not have its visual recoil reduced,

Indeed, forwarded

@Dregomz

Egypt and BR3-4 Tunisia 1943 maps

Too WW2, can’t happen with Darkjin.

It’s either BR 1-3 map with Volkssturm weapons and Pumas, BR 3-5 with Soviet cold war jets now, or BR 1-5 as every map ever released since the Merge has been (Heights, Pass, Rzhev, Myansera).

@Life_burns

Ok this 2 squads need to be equalized Japanese for Low should get Type 96 LMG for low and Type 100 SMG for medium and Tokyo Arsenal for High BR.

There is something very wrong with the Japanese squad can devs fix it with more similar options like the US.

Change was suggested long ago to give Japanese paratrooper Type 96 or 99 lmg as it was a weapon they used irl.

Also to give new event para squad for higher BR
but as usual of DF completely ignored the suggestion

[Life_burns]

I know I really want Type 96 or Type 99 paratroopers :

@Euthymia07

This was forwarded, thanks for the suggestion !

I didn’t see any mention of increasing some of the event knives run speed in the patch notes, will this change be implemented this update?

@IceySmooth

Axis mains cant read stat cards is what im learning.

thats rich.
No, the in game stats are fake or inaccurate (Euthy usually updates soon after the update is live, until that we dont really trust the in game stats).

Take Sten mk.II as an example, it will have the same dispersion as Uragan (according to stat card)
The recoil is none sense while the dispersion doesnt update with upgrades and shows only the stock which is 15% worse than the max upgraded one have.

Submachine Guns			Damage				Reload Timings (s)			Statcard Recoil			Actual Recoil			Moving Spread Increase

Sten Mk II	20000 XP	I	6.6	3.4	370	32	2.3	1.89	630	28	17	0.3	8	5	0.81	0.0	15.0	0.7	0.4	0.8	0.3	100%	4.0	32/128

[MagnaWedge]

This is a DISGRACE!

[IceySmooth]

Great so add to that 60% recoil control, not 70% like almost every other SMG (including the Sten)

The gun is BAD. Seriously in CQB it kind of outmatches the Obrezh (acc vs DPS) and maybe PPS43??? At mid range it seriously starts loosing out and at 75m it cant compete with PPS42, which is the 1st BR2 SMG research.

Just try it in the test server. I thought it was going to be broken, but u can barely hit the outline of a solider at 30m, While u can full auto entire squads with PPS42 at 100m+

Tldr, its an interesting addition to the otherwise copy paste soviet tree. Thats very good. Its actively inaccurate, which for a partizan SMG makes sense. at best its a situational sidegrade in close quarters.

People are seriously loosing their minds here over nothing.,

The Federov BR2 Semi is the actually solid addition in the tree, fastest reload of all BR2 semis I think, highest DPS,

No axis is malding about it.

[GetOut0fMyWay]

bot soldiers still use Yazikov Pistol, Colt Swartz, S&W Light Rifle as main weapon - specially on longe range while still having their main weapons + ammo
a fix was announced many updates ago but the bugs still exist → so pls take again a look and fix it

HE is also broken once again, e.g. shooting into a gourp of soldiers with 7,5cm gun or higher and only the first soldiers dies OR getting a white hitmarker on the soldier who got a direct frontal hit and only the rest dies → fix is also needed here

[Valkay]

@IceySmooth

75m

with 7.62 damage drop its not even worth firing past 50m with Soviet SMGs not like most combat didnt take place in closer distances in this game, but its CQC abilities are second to none in BR2 and would still be a strong SMG even on BR3.

@IceySmooth

Just try it in the test server.

I did, its super impressive, Im amazed how the F darkflow managed to add a SMG more powercreep than Pps42 to BR2.
We dont know its recoil stats yet but it seems to be between Pps42 and 43, despite having higher fire rate than Pp43 its easy to control.
As I said its dispersion is supposed to be the same as Sten which is 0.81, that is only 0.07 less than Pps42 which has 0.74 dispersion so its still very much usable in street to street.
However I must also mention the 2.2s reload which definitely makes this over powered for BR2, just as a friendly reminder the OVP has only 25 rounds and 2.7s reload, with 0.77 dispersion but is supposed to share the same BR.

[Myrm1don]

Whats the rate of fire on the 262 50mm? (From memory in Warthunder its pretty decent

Usually i would say give it all aphe…but if the rate of fire is decent, maybe HE/APHE could be quite effective/interesting?

And yes poor fw 190 A-8 out turned by 262

[Gef019]

the biggest downside to HEAT is that you need to snipe ammo racks and pry the RNG god that you explode the tank (there is a small chance that he only loses the ammo instead of exploding).

[Adamnpee]

@Myrm1don

Whats the rate of fire on the 262 50mm? (From memory in Warthunder its pretty decent

Can’t say exact number, but it’s pretty high in Enlisted as well.

[Euthymia07]

@Myrm1don

Whats the rate of fire on the 262 50mm?

160

[Myrm1don]

@Euthymia07

160

Nice.

Was just going to wait till i recieved mine on live…perhaps i better to test it now though (concern on ammunition belt)

If its warthunder default its aphe/HEI/HEI

[Comet92220]

The price of the new BR2 soviet rifle is wrong, it should be 300 not 750 :

The picture for the Uragan is unrelated :

It is not like there are many new things in this update and yet many are bugged…

As a side note, the price of the Itaca is still 300 while it should be 125… this was already reported a long time ago

I cannot wait for the BR changes to be applied with the weapons price being wrong again…

[IceySmooth]

@Valkay

with 7.62 damage drop its not even worth firing past 50m with Soviet SMGs

I min max soviets. I snipe with PPS42 so much I dont use any other weapon except the BP PP-BV SMG (which is just upgraded PPS42). So 100% disagree. damage drop off doesnt matter much when 7 rounds land in ur chest and head.

@Valkay

I did, its super impressive

Worst accuracy of every Soviet SMG available ingame bar 1.
Ive upgraded it fully and tested it on assaulter 4s.

Doesnt compare to a basic PPS42 past 40m. Ill maybe use it as a secondary for CQB.

Honestly only its slightly larger total ammo capacity is the only upside for me. You guys are crying about the wrong gun.

But we can agree to disagree. Let the peeps bugfix.

[Yamoto4299]

Has the ithica’s pump animation been fixed @Euthymia07 ?
