The state of pacific campaign needs to be fixed ASAP

Hello,

I haven’t made a detailed suggestion for a long time, but this problem is getting really serious and we have to do something about it.

Pacific teams are only getting worse with more japanese players switching to usa to get easy wins.
Winning with japanese is now an almost impossible task and it will only get worse
The same problem was present in Tunisa (allies being easy win) until the whole campaign got forgotten and if Pacific doesn’t get a life-saving update it will slowly die like Tunisia did.

HERE IS A LIST OF POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO SAVE PACIFIC:

1. Nerf BAR
The easiest solution will be to nerf it’s recoil or dispersion or accuracy
Japanese type 11 should be a long range LMG but it’s dispersion is so bad it makes it impossible to hit targets while the BAR is like a Lazer gun. Buffing the type 11 and nerfing the BAR should fix the LMG issue

2. Nerf Johnson LMG
In-real-life Johnson LMG suffered from heavy and punchy recoil due to it being lightweight.
While it was more handy, convenient and easier to use than the BAR, it was loved by US marines but firing while standing was impossible because of the recoil. Some gun owners even stated that recoil is as strong if not stronger than an M1 Garand.
Making the Johnson less controllable while standing should make it closer to an actual machine gun and less to an assault rifle.
A similar problem is with FG-42 but it’s a discussion for another topic

3. Make M13 easier to take down or move it to later campaign levels
M13 is not designed for front line, gunners optic should not be bullet-proof
M13’s armour can’t protect from full power rifle bullets at close range and stuff like bolt action rifles and machine guns should be able to penetrate it up-close

These are imo the most important issues, If you have something to add or have a different opinion feel free to write

  1. i don’t understand why people shit over the type 11 in game, when it’s a pretty good lmg for the game (it’s pretty accurate for tap fire, will full auto being useful for trench and cqc)

  2. that nerf to the johnson mg wouldn’t be as effective as you thing it is, ESPECIALLY if someone treats the MG in question as an AN-94 on burst or as an m16a2

  3. both M13 and Ta-se were changed to no longer explode when crew was killed because reasons. if you really think m13 is hard to kill you really have fucking skill issue as the lvl 5 unlock can destroy it as if it was butter

As someone who maxed Japan, Japanese tanks outside the premium Chi-Ha are the worst tanks in the game while planes are almost irrelevant because of how far the resupply point is along with how slow the planes are in the campaign.

Type 11 LMG has the worst sights ever while Type 97 LMG sure is good despite the ridiculous tank scope. Type 96 is a good LMG too despite the sight picture especially when shooting wasn’t great but good at spraying can even compete against the BAR with 30 rounds in the magazine too.

Regarding M13s well the Type 5 tube kills the entire crew in 1 good shot then finish the vehicle off with another one. Its just no sights at all for that thing makes it more like a poor man’s panzerfaust.

Rifles Type 99 rifle all the way and forget the semis there.

I don’t know about this. I have been playing PX in NA servers and the Americans actually lose more but I do admit that I play multiplayer

It’s a lvl 21 unlock and for f2p players it’s a long grind
Most players won’t have the luxury to use it
Even if you do have it, you will 99% be the only player in team with a rocket launcher having to carry everyone else

I agree, they are good MG’s but they are still very late unlocks
If a new player joins, he will have better early game options with US side by having the BAR at very early stage as well as Auto 5 shotgun which is very good
While using the japanese gives you good bolt action guns but they require skill, bad LMG and mediocre vehicles

go outside and breath air
you are the only toxic person here

Make them do max level the Normandy have access in pacific also reset their level to 1 in Normandy. [make their MM placed against TigerI players]

Ah… to believe that the devs actually cares…

Oh, how I wish I can feel such optimism again…

Hey, that doesn’t sound so bad ^ ^

From personal experience I am inclined to agree. For some reason the US team seems to be filled with… um… let’s say; Soldiers recruited from Project 100,000 (that, or they’re all bots, for the sake of those potential players, I’ll pretend they are bots).

It is not always like that though, there is an occasional Gigachad US Marines with a full squad of the extremely underpowered BARs and Thompson SMGs that proceeds to teach us the meaning of “Gaping hole” despite the disadvantage of their obviously inferior gear.

Though, nowhere near as painful as playing on NA.

All this, with my third-world shithole ping, so take it all with a rice-paddy hat full of salt.

Language, my good man!

Would you be kind enough to enlighten me on the reason as to why these SPAA no longer spontaneously combusts once the occupants have been dispatched? As for the M-13, it would be nice of the developers if they were to deign to make the M-13 easier to light aflame. Nothing smells better in the morning than American Fries :us:

And how we have to take off, unlike in other campaigns.

In your opinion, which is the better weapon? The Rocket Bong, or the AT-Rifle? While I do enjoy the power of the Type 5, it is lacking in range compared to the AT-Rifle.

I… doubt the developers has much love for the F2P peasants like us. (Well, like me anyway)

Oh didn’t you know, a sword beats a shotgun! Or so I’ve been told…

if i had a guess, i’m not in contact with the devs when they decide something, it’s because you could just outright kill both SPAAGS with a bayonet; also 1-2 ATR shots to the engine bay should ignite it, and you don’t need to get creative to do that since the engine is at the front of a vehicle but if that fails molotovs work well for killing all 3 crew.

I think the poor man’s panzerfaust is better, just takes some practice to shoot at longer ranges where aim like you aim with a grenade launcher. Not as hard as the RMN-50.

That used to work for me, but it seems my ping has decided that it’s time to cause me pain.

I see. Thank you for your advice.

You are not the only one

I am an alpha tester, Devs granted me full access to the game since 2020 and also given me 1st battlepass season for free
Since then, I only paid for the 2nd season of battle pass because there was nothing to do in lockdown and I had spare money. Other than that, I don’t spend on in-game purchases

no more nerfs pls, all guns need a massive dispersion BUFF instead.

Why not just buff the Jap MGs?

Wrong. The M13 and M16 were used against inf. There is a reason why they called the M16 meatchopper.
Otherwise yes, fix the weird gunner hitbox.

But whats the point of that if the BAR can do accurate shots in full auto? The BAR family is more accurate as all US ones are for reasons.

The Type 97 is the most accurate LMG in the game as of right now.

They were used against infantry, but they weren’t designed for that role. That’s what I was talking about

German 20mm was also designed only for shooting down planes but it proved itself successful against infantry and lightly armoured vehicles as well
