Zh-29

Back in the days of the Moscow campaigns, two top-tier weapons were available — the AVS-36 and, to counter it, the ZH-29.
Whether that was a balanced matchup is a different story — just like the overall balance of the Moscow campaign itself.
I mean, literally — a 20-round Beretta versus a PPSh-41.

But let’s get back to the rifles.
To prevent them from being too overpowered, the devs decided to give them a pretty strong visual recoil effect.
After the campaigns were merged, this detail was conveniently forgotten — until the last update, where the developers suddenly remembered… but only for one of the rifles, the AVS-36.

So here’s the suggestion:
Reduce the visual recoil the ZH-29

And bring it to BR3 as nobody plays BR4 anyway.

I play 4BR unironically.

But it would really be nice to make 3BR Germany at least a little playable

you can’t move br4 guns to br3 just because few people like br4.
(Although they should buff Gewehr 41, but it’s not right to discuss it in this topic.)

can’t because you forbade it)?

this topic is just right because there are weapons that are obviously worse than their counterparts and they need to either be improved or have their BR reduced.

Thats maybe the reason u are on U45N lol

U literally tortured urself by first playing Germany and then getting uptiered most times to BR5 LMFAO and if u played pre merge maybe u we’re a moskow-tunisia axis Main :skull:

He needs to come up with a logical reason and explain with statistics, that “it should go to BR3 because nobody plays BR4” is stupid, in that case I want T34 85 to go to BR3 because nobody plays BR4.

well this topick is about zh29, there’s no reason to talk about the G41 here.

well sometimes i play german br4, there’s good equipment there and you can survive against BR5, and if you go to BR3, you can make rivers of enemy blood.

See american jonnshon rifle? It was moved from BR4 to BR3 Even knowing that M1 garand do an amazing job Even it had 2 bullets less (still better than G41…)

Well, that was never my suggestion, and I have to check the stats, Johnson was one of those weapons that I really hated.

Again German playerbase carry since 90% of soviet teams are full of retardeds… Specially on br5 with a few exceptions…

Well germans on BR4 are very decent but good luck getting downtiered u Will most times got sent SF hell

But if you’re lucky, you’ll be very happy, imagine the MG39 in BR3.

Still fun Even on BR5 just need to do some Magic by giving double weapon and equip a MG42 100 aswell and there u go

But honestly it’s counterpart ( soviet Tommy is way better…)

Yes I like that weapon a lot, its recoil is very low and its fire rate is really impressive, I even use it sometimes in BR5. This weapon and the breda PG make me want to play the German BR4. The Panther is also very good.
Yes, Soviet Tommy is ghot.

Recent USA/JP BP semis of BR3 come with BR4 power and yet you say we can’t move them to BR3. They came there instantly and only i was only person complaining about obvious power creep that is happening at all times around BR2-3. Devs seem to want to make bolties and weaker semis even more weak.

Well, the Winchester has lower damage and the Hino has a lower fire rate. But the most important reason is that they are limited, you can’t spam them.

Soviets got Svt-38 with detachable mag for quicker reload , i dont see any reason why Zh-29 should not be a BR3 weapon

Because SVT is exception.

If anything, SVT should either get stripper clip reload or be put on BR4.

Not the other way around.

soviets dont need an exception … and if so then Zh-29 is is just fine for BR3 also that Svt with stripper clip and BR 4 idea

No, it is not. It’s completely unnecessary and it would only made G41 obsolete.

Literally just crippling the balance even harder.
