This is required for two reasons. Namely: 1. To bring Germany at par with the other factions in terms of end game BR V MGs. 2. To revive the German playerbase at BR V in general.

it’s been requested for a while…
Hopefully it will NOT be an event unlock, but a permanent TT one. mg42 AND mg34.

My dream is an MG42 early with at least 100 round belt, but after the Stinger, even 250 would be fair.

You should really stop using that photo.
The red line you drew is not even parallel to the gun… it goes downward more

That’s not a bug, its a feature. The devs do not want you to use the vehicle frontally because…
Well because its got armour to protect the crew from small arms and shrapnel, and we can’t have that in a WWII game.

Yes, gib 200 round MG42.
Though I’m sad it will be BR5 most likely. If only there was a way to bring it to lower BRs without it being OP…

If the Germans get a BR5 LMG it must have at least 900 rate of fire and have at least 100 rounds. I don’t see a problem with adding the MG42 and MG34 it makes complete sense and to me would be entirely balanced to add both LMG’s at the same time. Russians already have two, The Americans already have the stinger and the Browning A6, But if we had to go as far as another tech tree weapon for the Americans I’m sure that would be possible as well, As long as Germany got a event LMG too so it would balance out. This way all factions would have at least 2 100 round LMGs, with the exception of Japan the next best thing would be the type 92 with a 97 round drum. I hate how they are holding back adding LMGs from the game.
At an absolute minimum though Germany needs their 100 round.

Technically, Japan duct tape mg is 100 rounds 
it’s just ot fires both guns at the same time.
(What a weird contraption). Btw did they buff it’s dispersion lately? Goofed around in custom with it, snd first shots were (semi) accurate

That’s why I said 2 at least for every faction. The type 92 with 97 round pan would be the second for them.

Honestly, if we’re talking Soviet weapons the MGs are mid in my opinion. The Maxim is decent for a little more range, but in general I’d rather take a PPSh or Federov into battle.
Wish they’d bring the MP717(r) back for the Germans so they’d have a decent high-capacity SMG.
