VG 1-5 not useable

Dear community,

there are a lot of bugs in the games, but the news wich annoys me is the VG 1-5. I can not chance the fire modi, it is impossible. I put the button for change fire modi on different buttons in the setting, but whenever I try to chance the fire modi in the game: nothing happens. Has anyone of you an idea what I can do?

Pls Help

To partly answer you, tge VG IS usable, but really only if full star. If not you’re better with regular smgs.

Is good as riflman CQC weapon because of the low recoil and little higher fire rate than the G43, but wy is in the assaulter hand is mistery instead m2 carabine is riflman weapon GG

gastanofrizzi is going to be a daddy, congratz

the VG 1-5 was a last ditch weapon to be given to the volksturm troops (old men and kids) to atleast equip them with a weapon it was very crude and it was only semi auto

There was at some point, I think Historically a Select fire version I think (I don’t have my books in front of me or I’d check).
However in game the VG 1-5 is Semi only. And IMO, it really should be a Rifleman unlock, vs Assaulter. It fits that role far better. And I’d love a 9 Man Infantry squad with that thing, just to see if I ever made someone post a VG OP Thread.

yea it should and it should be unlocked slightly earlier.

I think the fact that the Russians have 71 drum magazine bullet hoses balances it out :slight_smile:

The russian ppd40 is not better in his campaign position wy use the ppd40 if the game at lv14 give you the ppsh41, i call this filler

better be preparing that child support @gastanofrizzi

on side note, people probably think VG1-5 is full-auto because it’s full-auto in BFV & COD

VG1-5 should be the standard infantry gun instead of FG42II. Steiner counter-offensive should consist of last-ditch weapons with scrape-the-barrel troopers, not super special elite paratroop from non-existed Luftwaffe.

I don’t know why so many are nagging about PPSh and PPD, compared to Moscow, the Soviet unlock drum mag quite late in this campaign. Once I got mg34, which is much earlier than PPD, Russian’s peepee just stop being a problem.

Yeah I’d love it to me a standard infantry weapon.
I can only imagine having my infantry squads with that.
Interestingly enough I dont recall myself ever complaining about the SMGs, and now with the flamethrower buff , they are even less of a problem.

But it was avaiable to other soldier types in alpha and fg42 was a gunner gun.

I don’t know what went wrong in their decisions.

I have to rely on you guys (Alpha) to let me know these things.
To me, that makes a lot more sense.

Oh yeah, it was avaiable for eng, radio squads and If I recall correctly troopers.

The MG gunner would unlock the mg13/mg34 (with a MG42 placeholder) and later fg42 only avaiable as gunner squad.

Would make more sence than having a vegetal1-5 as currenty is and fg42 for everyone…
