The Soviet weapon is very unbalanced

you consider graphs with TTK shown to be useless cause they dont have velocity? but somehow you started with this comparison

One difference friend, my calculations account for velocity.

These straight lines? From 0 to 50m no change in time to kill? Thats not accounting for velocity

And the changes to the economy that made upgrading weapons easier? It takes barely a few games to afford the currency for these “luxury” items in the lower tiers

There are plenty of resources, guides, and helpful players on many different social media platforms (facebook, discord, reddit, forums :nauseated_face: ) to teach new players about upgrading weapons and bringing vitality perks. Anyone who doesnt care enough to gain this knowledge doesnt care about the balance of the guns. The game should not be balanced around inexperienced players making mistakes, the systems are in place and are part of the game. Use upgraded weapons and take powerful perks.

If you wanted to protect new players from “seal-clubbers” there are ways to implement systems for that, which you could suggest instead. Rather than randomly messing with the balance of an overall, well balanced game.

But your powercreep only exists in fantasy land where we dont upgrade weapons or take perks, who’s to say we even bring a weapon to the battle in this scenario of yours? I think your input for balance is not that well thought out and you have deluded yourself.

Honestly I’d like to see more Moscow-village-like maps that take shape around narva Estonia, Budapest Hungary and the Vistula-Oder offensive. Then to redesignate the maps from Moscow as Eastern European villages would be enough

Stop coping PPS-42/43 are superior to anything that German has at BR2.

MP40 only kills in two hits at up to 17m:

It’s just laughably bad 12m. Those guns are a sad joke when compared to PPS-42/43/Uragan.

You want the SMG to kill people in 2 hits across the map? Am I getting that right? We should consider the strength of SMGs outside of their specialty, which is CLOSE RANGE?

feel free to include velocity… it will just make even better argument that soviet weapons are OP cause they have 450m/s velocity and german weapons have 400m/s, so at range german weapons will have even worse performance. but i think that it is irrelevant to go into such details.

you forget that you need to unlock those upgrades and people will buy new weapons when they unlock them. also vehicles cost a lot to upgrade. yes economy is much better than before, but it is not exactly at place where player can easily buy every weapon and every upgrade without thinking.

balance of gun should have nothing to do with players willingness to learn or not to learn about game mechanics.

similarly balance should not be about meta chasing. yes you can have “competitive” balance for min maxers, but you should also have balance for casual players(which make majority of playerbase).

This must be bait :joy::joy::joy:

so please tell me how pps43/uragan is not overperforming on its BR compared to mp40 or beretta. like i said 6 scenarios and mp40/beretta has advantage in only 1 on limited range. maybe you think that it is most important scenario, but most players will be in other 5.

Move soviet guns to BR 6. Before with a stick

I agree with you now

The PPS-43 is op
Reason 1: Sealclubbers with 10,000 matches are using it in BR2 to abuse new players
Reason 2: Axis is only made up of new players, who don’t even have Primary weapon equipped anymore

PPS-43 uptier to BR5 where the sealclubbers who

  1. Take perks
  2. Upgrade their guns
    can play in peace :pray:

The forum never surprises me with its takes😭

I mean I could see the point but it’s also crazy that because you played other games yoi want this here lmao but I could see it as a premium or event for BR4 like the AKT-40

The 106th Akmolinsk (Kazakh) Cavalry Division was a mobile unit formed in Akmola (present-day Astana) in spring 1942. Despite having roughly 4,091 personnel, it was critically under-armed:

  • Just 102 rifles (about 1 rifle per 40 soldiers)
  • No submachine guns or handguns
  • 3,100 sabres (“shashkas”)
  • 43 small mortars (50 mm) and 18 medium mortars (82 mm)
  • Mounted on approximately 3,180 horses

1 rifle per 40)

Yeah, it cant be real xD

They also need sticks with optical sights and preferably some T-60s
on 5 BR

The AVT40 and AVS36 are indeed like sticks.
