Why do you do this?

Cönders MG (Axis, Normandy/Berlin)
An experimental belt-fed submachine gun chambered in 9x19 Parabellum. It was developed as an independent undertaking by August Cönders, a munitions designer and engineer. Only one prototype was partially built.

“Only one prototype was partially built.”

one off never completed, never functioning prototype, now available as a “HEY GUYS, WHAT IF!?” gun.

I came for the historical accuracy you guys “suspiciously” removed from the main pages about section. Your player base is dipping. people dont want more one off god weapons and new campaigns, we want you to BALANCE the content and functionality of the content youve already squirted out. not that the devs give a **** about anything other than premium squads (if that).

wahh wahh wahh. seriously though. N*zi Power Armor when?
$70 dollar premium Marvel crossover squad starring Captain Communism for Soviets when?

Its golder order. Gold orders exist for that purpose.

… can you provide that source?
even still one half finished gun is something the average squad of soldiers in berlin would come across? or even to find as a trophy?

Like I dont know how else to explain to you that gun was never built.

Depending on source, they built one but it was captured.

Yeah the game is unbalanced in many ways, but it’s no longer advertised as historically accurate. It’s more like war thunder, casual ww2 game and because it’s a casual game they can implement weapons that never came to be, if they make it op on purpose not many people will let them slide, but if it’s something along the lines of “we built a weapon that was never produced out of existing data so you can check out how it might’ve behaved” I’m sure noone would mind, if i’m not mistaken one of the popular games recreated a weapon from nothing but a picture and some specifications to let players experience it

Either they copy and paste guns from other nations or they add in prototype weapons, since I’m a big history nerd and prototype and wacky guns fascinate me and seeing them get the spotlight makes me feel a bit giddy. Besides as gold order weapons you’re only able to equip one or two guys with said guns so they’re still rare.

Plus hard historical accuracy is something that Enlisted hasn’t ever really been about

That was your mistake.

“we built a weapon that was never produced out of existing data so you can check out how it might’ve behaved”

Then make them available only in the practice area where you already have the ability to test weapons and their functionality… dont allow said weapon into the ACTUAL game. Why not add ak47s and m14s to squads “Just to see.”

I get it, they backed off the historical aspect to double down on fun shit that will bring in money for them in gold and premiums.
But it was seriously the primary reason I started playing it, that it offered all of this real life, really issued equipment that eventually grew and was unique to each country.

I had my rant, but its obvious the historical aspect is dead.

Here the gun with GunJesus

There is a photo of the gun with its original parts and neither any source or Jesus state that the gun was not complete, at least not without brackets. So whats the deal here?

Enlisted is not a war simulator. It is a mixed arcade game. Realism is not really the most important thing here

So every time Ian puts out a one off prototype video, the devs have the duty to shoehorn it into the game wherever possible. got it.

So Germany before 1938 was fine?
The historian spoke.

Don’t get mad about that bro, if you’re looking for something more realistic maybe check out “Hell let loose” But it can get pretty hardcore with friendlies sometimes lighting you up as a mistake.
Or maybe arma ww2 rp
I would also rather the game stick to historical accuracy as it was first advertised, but it abandoned that path.

Your point is that its a proto and incomplete.
Well. Complaing in the idk which season about gold order guns being protos is kinda late and incomplete seems to be based on the issue that some parts got lost after he built the gun.

…BUT THEYRE ALL INCOMPLETE PROTOTYPES OR “EXPERIMENTAL”

Lanchester Model 1 (Allied, Normandy/Tunisia/Pacific)

One of the prototype submachine guns designed by George Lanchester in an attempt to optimize the design of the German MP 28 for production in Britain. However, the competition in this regard was lost to the STEN.

LAD (Allies, Berlin)

An experimental light machine gun with a belt-fed 7.62mm Tokarev cartridge. It was not mass produced due to the introduction of an intermediate 7.62x39mm cartridge, more suitable for long-range engagements.

and the italian rifle is a trials rifle.

How can it be incomplete if it had a trial?

I jsut pointed out that it had a trial. and that was only for the italian self loading rifle. meaning “experimental” or any way you want to look at it it didnt get adopted. i care less about the italian rifle so much, thats not the issue

Text of the British SMG also states it lost on a competition.

oh shit you got me there, darn my whole argument is invalid now. all of it.
pffft lol whatever man.

I can’ say anything in regards to PC, but the player base seems to be growing on console.
