Unreasonable and unfair alignment - M2 carbine and FG42 paratrooper rifle

This is unreasonable. The damage of the FG42 paratrooper rifle is 14.4, which means its ttk is 0ms, while the damage of the M2 carbine opposite it is 8.8, and its ttk is 80ms. In addition, due to the attenuation of bullet power and the poor use of its own target sight, this gun has almost no counterattack power at mid range, making it only capable of engaging in close combat. However, even so, its close combat still has to endure this flaw - reloading ammunition takes 2.8 seconds, which is 0.2 seconds slower than the 2.6 seconds of the FG42 paratrooper rifle. Is this reasonable, gentlemen of the production team? In order to make the game more fair to Allied players playing the Normandy Campaign, I sincerely suggest that you do something - at least speed up the loading speed of the M2 carbine, which should be faster than the FG42 paratrooper rifle.


M2 is waaaay better than FG on Normandy, lol

The FG II from berlin will be superior after the merge tho

(It’s funny you are crying about FG when something like Kurz is in game)

Well if you wait until 1957 you will get the M14, that will be kind of analogous with the FG-42, though it should be more like AVS-36 tier.

M2 is just beter than normal fg42.

You have to look at the full picture, including hidden stats.

Yeah, comparing DPS alone makes no sense.

Also, 0,2 sec reload difference, UNACCEPTABLE!

M2 should be an assault rifle (just like it is IRL).just like MP-43/StG-44,
I think T20 automatic rifle should be aligned against FG-42

You would completely kill off the FG then. Because not a single person would be using it instead of STG and its early variants

M2 and StG for assaulters
T20 and FG for engineers, radio ops, etc…

There’s an issue of some potential tech trees, about lacking of fully automatic rifles and assault rifles

FG-42 should be an assault rifle (just like it is IRL)

Or FG should be used only by paratroopers after they’ll bring up free ones.

Guy, I would like to take the liberty of asking you, do you usually use automatic mode when playing FG?

I like the M2 better because it goes brrrrrrrrrr. The FG isn´t nearly as fun.

Ok, guy, I hope you can use your M2 carbine to try take out my team of nine people equipped with FG,I think your strength can achieve these things, right?

Don’t you mean a “light machinegun”? (And put an automatic ZH-29 instead of FG)

Yes, and you are not the first dumba who cry about this before realize, give full-auto smg with low recoil to every soldier is better than a selective rifle who start in semi-auto with a low ammo count and is hard to use outiside point blank without bipod

So please spare us another stupid crusade of 7 topic or more aganaist this gun who is everything you whant but not OP
