You didn’t get it.
Example:
I want to use an X squad but Y is better even though they have the same BR. So why should I chose X?
Yes this issue applies to many issues affecting the game as a whole however, the devs have given us their stance on how they will do HA which is why I can argue it. We are still awaiting how the devs will approach many of those other issues.
The answer is that X will get moved to a lower BR where you can use it, unless the difference between them isn’t large enough to matter in which case you should easily be able to bridge the gap with raw skill.
A bunch of one-liners and a vague idea of an ideal game, when I took the liberty of writing paragraphs for you.
What you are essentially suggesting is a total rework of the game that would overall change the identity of the game proper. Have you ever considered playing a different game that more accurately caters to your preference?
“I personally believe automatic weapons do not belong in the hands of anything other than MG and Assaulter squads.”
You can be honest and earnest about what you feel without hiding behind historical accuracy as an argument.
But it will never address the points I mentioned. Especially when you switch between using historical accuracy as a shield, while also saying you won’t. Pick.
“The guns will be categorized however I want them to be, and I’ll use whatever excuse justifies my choice after the fact”
It’s a difference of 5 rounds from other guns assigned to gunners, That’s an arbitrary metric to determine if it’s a weapon for the gunner class. It’s a fully automatic rifle firing full sized cartridges, assigned to a limited number of personnel. That sounds good enough to me for it to be assigned to the gunner class.
The AVT should have a much higher recoil as well, I don’t know why they decided to give it a secret 75% recoil reduction modifier. There’s no other select fire rifle or lmg in the game with that high a bonus. If it actually had a recoil of 80 I don’t think it would be such an issue who’s holding it.
It’s an automatic rifle.
We’ve been over this over the differences between ARs, SMGs, LMGs and Automatic Rifles.
There is no role overlap.
Most of my suggestions are in form of comments and I don’t bother to find them and quote them.
In terms of spawn points mechanic, this is a good summary.
And in terms of big maps, just look at Tommy’s mod.
So yeah, basically what Tommy is doing. Sadly his mod is poor and disliked (irony).
WHAT THE FUCK DUDE???
Where do you see a mention of HA in this text???
This “HA argument” is 100% made up by you. So stop accusing me of using it because you are the one using it.
Learn to read finally and leave me alone.
I can’t. Like, I’m nerve wracked at this point. I can’t write simpler and clearer than this:
I don’t. You accuse me of doing so based on you imagination.
Isn’t it exactly what you do?
“I will move this gun here and this gun there because I feel it’s more balanced”
PS.
I swear, you will mention HA once more and I’ll call for mods, testers or anybody to judge wtf is happening here.
I gave you a quoted list of your own words in this thread.
Own up to it.
Or was it an irony?
For what?
SO READ THEM!!
aaaaa
Yes it is, that we can agree on. The following is an incomplete list of weapons in enlisted that share characteristics with the AVT: BAR, Johnson lmg, mg-13, mg-30
What do they all have in common? Similar magazine size damage, recoil, usability in assault and long range combat, gunner class exclusivity.
(i mean, there is also the weight that separates AVT/AVS/FG42 from the rest of mag-fed MGs, but it’s not like you can’t get around this by balancing them in some other way should they be moved)
It was a weapon to try to replace a pistol for those who couldn’t carry a full M1 Garand. Tankers, non-frontline personnel, etc
So yeah it was a personal defense weapon similar to a pistol, just much more effective than one but much lighter if less capable than a full rifle
Still doesn’t change the fact that it is literally a rifle by name. Go on, look up the definition of carbine. Actually, here you go: a firearm similar to a lightweight rifle but with a shorter barrel/a short rifle or musket used by cavalry
Besides, regardless of what was supposed to be prolific and what wasn’t, how many M1’s and M2’s do you think were fielded vs StG’s?
Also DF litteraly put an LMG as a “semi-auto rifle” for the soviets in the new Battle Pass. Don’t think they are going to change M2 anytime soon
Tell that the marines and airborne. The carbine was especially valued in the Pacific given the weight and magazine size.
I am about to have a brain aneuryism. Absolutely no consistency at all with weapon classes.
The weapon doesn try to replace pistol but give better weapon to echelon troopers, is a Personal Defense Weapon, they are made for defense purpose initially, they added Bayonet, larger magazine and automatic fire for offensive role in postwar because the US Wheelchair marshal think is fine to ignore the Enemy has AR available since WWII
Is 6 millions of M1/M2/M3 carbine vs less than 500k StG44s, did the M1/M2 carbine designed to replace M1 Garand, the main weapon of US rifleman in WWII? No, did the StG44 is planned and tried to replace the main weapon the german soldier has? Yes, that’s the difference
So which was more likely, do tell?
Coming across some Krauts with a StG, or coming across an American who traded his rifle or smg for a Carbine?
Also
On 26 October 1944, in response to the Germans’ widespread use of automatic weapons, especially the Sturmgewehr 44 assault rifle, the select-fire M2 carbine was introduced, along with a new 30-round magazine. The M2 had a fully automatic rate-of-fire of 750-775 rounds-per-minute.
So it was not introduced postwar, but in the dead end of the war. Slight difference there buddy
I never said they are introduced post war, I said they are still defensive role untill post war, the bayonet lung is post war addition, and the first batch of M2s and M3s arrived officially in Okinawa 1945, so yeah I can bet there is more StG 44 in Europe than M2s, and that’s why the M2 in this game is a time travel weapon
M1 carbine needs a buff to firerate. It’s ridiculously slow, especially considering that the rest of the full size semi auto rifles have a much higher firerate.
(VG needs it too but that’s not this thread)
You never played against competent M2 carbine users and it shows. I was in a Pacific jap match with Erika and we where getting absolutely lasered by M2 carbines. I was sniping and still lost my sniper to one of those when he shot at me for like the 5th time. If you want proof I can search for the replay, I ain´t talking cap.
I’ve never said it’s not good already.
