Okay listen I’ll give you that: Select fire weapons are equal to Assaulters weapons - however can be used on all Soldiers.
This is OP - and indeed the recoil is too easy to controll in full auto.
Since we are removing burst from the G43k for historical accuracy - we might as well increase recoil for all those select fire rifles, however accuracy should not change, in small bursts or if controlled correctly they should be as accurate as semi auto rifles.
That being said, for historical accuracy we should change the FG42 II to have 600 rpm so that it is easier to controll in full auto, while we increase the rate of fire of the first FG. Thats how it was in the real world.
One has less DPS but is easier to controll, the other has more recoil but a higher rate of fire in full auto.
This is one reason I am always bashing the “soft rule” when it comes to match making. Level 5 needs to be a stand alone level, PERIOD. I love the T20 and I field them in every Allied level 5 squad (including those 9 man rifle squads), but if your playing with a semi auto rifle that is ALWAYS semi auto, you shouldn’t be placed in a level 5 match, and as far as I know, there are no fully auto semi auto’s in level 3 or 4, so they shouldn’t be playing in level 5. I don’t play Japanese, so I don’t have any knowledge about any level 5 weapon they have. Stand alone level 5, then the DEV’s can buff any weapon they want and call it a level 5 weapon since it would be more of an outlaw class where anything seems to go.
Another irritant for me, is when I choose to play my level 3 Allies, it says level 2-5, where if I choose Russia or Germany that shows level 2-4. Level 5 shouldn’t even be an option, and to be honest, level 2 shouldn’t be an option either. I would leave the weapons in level 5 alone, but it would be a stand alone level if I had any say. Which I don’t…Since the DEV’s won’t do anything about it other then lip service anyway.
t20 and type hei AR outperform fg42 II. they either have better damage making it effective on longer ranges, or they have bigger magazine and both have much better recoil. they either needed to buff fg42 and AVT or they needed to nerf t20 and type hei AR. they chose buff.
well if you wanna be technical about it, then you are wrong.
m2 carbine has V:14 H:4
type hei AR V:15 H:6
mp18 V:14 H:10
austen mk 1 V:15 H:7
m1a1 thompson V:14 H:5
kiraly V:16 H:6
we could take into account ROF, but kiraly has highest ROF out of them all
Stopped reading there you are a delusional and never played as a br5 Germany in your entire life. Your entire post is a fanfiction of a Soviet/Burger main.
And FG42/II is the worst automatic rifle at BR5 and deserves a massive buff, all of them except FG42 also have a bayonet that as previously said decrease recoil and let you sprint instantly without switching to melee
For smgs and mgs there are similar advantages for the both nations while Germany has nothing that is stronger that they have already own. Even at BR2 germany has the worst smgs in the game. And at BR5 Kiraly is way worse than BR3 Soviet smg (that also has a broken dispersion and is more accurate than a stationary LMG).
Even tho those tiny differences are around 5-10% you can add all small advantages and you have a better gun in all important categories of a gun than STG44
And why should it get reduced fire-rate is it historical reason or for balance reasons as far as I can tell historical reasons matter and dont at the same time Type Hei has ROF of 600 real life in game one is 790 almost 800 in an other case VMP 1926’s drum mag can only hold 25 round while in game it holds 40 and other little stuff so I dont see why we need to lower the ROF of FG-42 II since type Hei is in the same boat, it has its real life ROF altered in any case FG-42 also had ROF around 900 and it doesent fire that fast in game I would leave FG rebalance in hands of devs
Maybe not just adjust its ammo to 20 there was a 20 round mag for it anyway and also there is type 2 with 6.5 mm for assault weapon for Japan
I dont know about AVS but FG42 10 round mags were rare IRL they were there but were rare in fact they were so rare that the Bid for them starts at 1500 dollars anyhow I dont know about this change maybe ,maybe not
These lines sum up all, whing about Soviet not getting a new toy when Germany finally gets some deserved qol changes. And, somehow, Soviet becomes the weakest faction in almost every aspect.
As if avt40 is not a noob gun
Why would anyone want to impose an arbitrary penalty on a gun and consider it a good thing? Are you being disingenuous?
The common sense is Soviet will get its new toys as the devs have hinted at the Manchuria front.
Buddy, I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. Between the Allies, Axis, and Soviets, it isn’t the Soviets who are suffering from the arms race between the Axis and Soviets. The Allies have gotten the short end of the shaft repeatedly from the Axis after Merge brought your arms race to Normandy, and we are finally being brought up to speed with things like the T20 and, eventually, T26E1-1
