250 rounds would have been nice though, more accurate than the Stinger with their 200 round boxes which were purposefully never used irl on the Stinger. But yeah, I really hate people who (in general, even in other games) ask for the MG 42 to have a fire-rate at it’s highest historical, forgetting entierly that it was the anti-air configuration rather than the ground configuration that was actually used in combat.
I’d say the best middle ground would be a new MG nest for high-tier Axis to be a MG-42 in aircraft configuration, as the only way you’re carrying that ridiculous ammount of ammunition that will be expended is if you’re stationary. Or, event weapon I guess so you won’t get that many of them (like the Stinger, mentioned once more).

Yes, I often play for Axis.

The ZiS-5 has the same armor as the KW-1 with the long 75, only the turret is cast and thicker.
The answer is still NO. As of December 2024, no.
The USSR does not have such weapons.
I have 320 battle for the Axis and 360 for the USSR. Yes, severe hit here
The alternative being no one gets captured weapons at all? Fair enough, I await the Soviets crying in that case.
ready to change Fausts to PTAB 2.5
The Avtomat is decididly a WW1 weapon, it’s in the game and it is a very good weapon. There’s also the Winchester M1895 which is a very popular choice.
Honourable mentions to the Mosins (which aren’t good, it’s just what a Soviet player has to play with) and the I-153, which is interwar but is in spirit another WW1 bi-plane just with a more modern engine and rockets strapped to it (and is also really good).
I don’t understand, you don’t admit that the fedorov is a ww1 weapon or you don’t admit it’s one one the best AR while being ww1 ?
the fedorov model in game is the fedorov avtomat m1923
it’s actually not a ww1 weapon:p

didn’t know that ty. not sure though it’s see ww2 fight, and it’s take a high role in the russian BR V i would prefer getting AT-44 or AS -44
damn the winchester is so good, my favorite rifle at this BR
It’s not WW2 either. Never seen after winter war, let alone in Berlin lol
Btw is Rocket Pershing a ww2 tank?
i’m more speechless about the captured weapon that we don’t know where the devs can go with that than an "actual " ww2 tank with extremly late war mod

Well my personal red line is “something was adopted, issued to troops and used in WW2 combat”.
Because there were a lot of things “built during WW2” but never used in combat for one or another reason.
The new Chi Ri 2 was not even built at all, to the best of my knowledge.
T-34-100, T-44, IS-3, Maus or E-100 are not WW2 either in my book.
Same as Hyde 1944, AutoHei, T20 or AS, and definitely not Rocket Pershing.
Forum staff here claim Rocket Pershing “was built during WW2” but even then there has been 0 evidence presented.

sorry but that favors germany and ussr heavily, also sorry but that has never been enlisted outside of maybe the beta

we have already crossed it and it will continue …
The m1923 was a standardisation program, as previous productions were suffered from poor quality control, as such only changed were that old parts were changed to newer more standardised parts.
This is basicly also the same argument of saying that “the BAR M1918A1/2 are not WW1 weapons”, like they are completely alien weapons from echother. It’s almost dishonest, but more nit-picky.
Even beta had Panther F iirc
This is one of the worst weapons in the game as of December 2024
