Okay so before any German mains have a go at me please understand that i love the MP40 and i have used it extensively in every campaign however it does not belong in Tunisia, let alone unlockable at level 14.
The MP40 in Tunisia should be replaced with another Italian submachine gun as the berretta M1 makes it obsolete as it is cheaper to buy and upgrade. Also it has 8 more rounds in every magazine and nice iron sights.
—A replacement for the MP40—
The berretta M1918 should be a possible replacement as an unlock in place of the MP40.
If not a replacement then at least there needs to be a multiple choice research tree at certain levels to give a choice on what weapon you would like to research next. For example when you reach level 14 on the axis side you would have a choice to research the MP40 or the berretta M1918 even if you research one you can always research the other at a later date if you desire.
I do like playing Tunisia as axis however there is a hell of a lot of German copy and paste that quite simply does not need to be there and the MP40 is a classic example of this. I would list other examples of needless German copy and paste however there have already been countless threads about it.
Also just to add this is one thing that is putting me off enlisted is the needless copy and paste with some equipment in certain campaigns and at certain levels.
MP 40 is there if someone wants to play historical squads. I dont see why should DF remove it or replace it. Its not like you have to use it, you dont even get it from random weapon drops anymore, soo where is a problem here?
I agree with you on copy paste issue, however, what if you want to have German squad with solid German equipment, and Italian squad with Italian equipment?
I don´t want to be forced to use ONLY MP 28 on such soldiers.
they will probs be later unlocks, and also the MP40 is obsolete in every campaign to begin with because you will eventually replace it, so whats the problem here?
The fact that axis Tunisia was a lazy ass copy and paste job that’s the issue. Also I have listed some of the issues in the post.
No I don’t however people still have to go though that level and research it.
I already had a possible solution that the post. Not to completely replace the MP40 but add more firearms along side it. More variety is always nice and stops you from getting burned out from using the same shit in a game
Like i said in the post there should be more choice for the weaponry you can research on certain levels to add more choice. I understand that some people still want to use the MP40 on Tunisia however I’m pretty sure there are many people that do not want to research the same damn submachine gun they have researched and used 3 times previously on other campaigns.
This is why there needs to be more choice in the campaign levels when it comes to small arms. Multiple options for research on specific levels would be a great way to solve this.
Some players still dont understand that militaries try to use as few different weapons as possible and use them for as long as possible. We have weapons that were manufactured in only few thousands, never even issued officially, but we see them in game all the time.
Why not just the MP28? Gun didnt saw much usage by Wehrmacht forces but rather by the German police and the Waffen SS… and nobody likes the MP28. Nobody would miss it. MP40 is a must have for German campaign/ campaign containing German.
Well yes i am aware they are the weapons used to war however still you fail to get the point I’m trying to get across.
Oh i understand this sir its just that im trying to point out that it would be nice to have a lot more choice in terms of equipment than there already is on the axis side on Tunisia.
