The BAR needs a damage buff

The BAR has 264 damage per mag. Where as the mg42 has 660 per mag. And the dps for the mg 42 over 1 minute (If it didnt need to reload) is just over 13000 damage. The bar however (If it also didnt need to reload) is 8700. And the mg42 has more than double the ammo per mag. If you wont fix it, at least lable axis as easy and allies as hard. The time to kill is really out of balance

this is a very weird metric you used here to say the guns are unbalanced i must say

And change the ammo for the BAR to 30-06. Cause it isnt supposed to be 7.62. You have the mg firing a bigger caliber, when it should be the other way round

At least it was an attempt but now BAR is fine

30-06 has a longer case and more powder. And do the math. 13.2 damage and 990 rounds a minute vs 13.2 damage and 660 rounds a minute

But you know that you need only 2 hits to kill? Higher rof is a debuff for MGs.

Cant handle fair competition?

Lmao .30 cal is 7.62 mm. 30-06 does infact fire a 7.62mm bullet but in a 63mm case. 7.62x63 is 30-06. 7.92x57 is 8mm mauser

all semi automatics and mgs in game (except for semis in tunisia) are standardised to 12 damage. which is already more than enough to one hit someone. even if you buffed the bar to 20 damage you wouldnt notice a differance since you already down in one hit with 12 damage

Here is the thing, .30-06 is imperial measurements while 7.62x63 is the same round but using the metric system, it’s why .45 acp firing guns like grease have their ingame caliber at 11mm because it is 11mm wide

i play both campaigns , both sides.


that argument means nothing here. actually, i use bars and avoid mg’s in axis side.

the only mg i use in axis, its,… a bar.

but you do you.

Which fires a more powerful bullet than the mg. Your just pissed cause you play on easy and i called it out

if you play axis gunner long enough, you’ll realized that the RPM is overkill and just wasting bullets, one of the reason why I choose MG34 or PT34 than the faster MG42.

also just relax, they’ll add 1919A6 at one point in the future…i guess
