Definitely not in the current state of game. Russia has pps42/43, germany has TONS of guns with 600-690 rof in br2, japan now has type 100 with over 700 rof. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with m1a1 in br2 with what the other nations have
Wow this is probably the most Re: take I’ve seen in a long while.
Translation: haha Gaijin add fun guns. Fun guns didn’t exist IRL? Who cares! They are haha fun! Everyone who doesn’t like haha guns is “butthurt”
Please, never go full Re:
Or eventually you’ll get “prototype STG with 123 rounds” and “workshop modified T-34-152”
This is probably the first time I agree with Para on something.
But it’s obvious this is fact.
HA fanatics yet again are trying to ruin something in favor of HA, that’s never been accurate in the first place anyway.
It’s really so obnoxious.
Well, guess you are right - 10 rounder mags literally only existed for the testing range and were never issued to the frontline.
Just like - fun fact - scoped STGs, and since those also are in the game, we have already streched the HA limit by quite a bit.
10 rounder FG mags are more HA than 10 rounder STG/MKB mags - tho even adding those would be wrong because how I understood it, Paratroopers sometimes only jumped with one single 10 rounder mag, that was loaded in the gun during the jump, so that they dont get their guns stuck in the paracords, but even that was not standard how I understand.
If we go by pure HA, non of those things would be in the game anyways.
Pure historical accuracy will never work for enlisted. In my opinion lack of ha is fine as long as we still keep some rules like no mixed armies so the game still feels like ww2 shooter. What i dont appreciate is the selective historical accuracy the devs like to use. I dont know why devs had to ruin type 100 smg, type 100 lmg, type 99 lmg and fedorov rifle for historical reasons when mkb 42 gets to keep the unhistorical mag because gameplay reasons. They should already pick a side instead of seemingly randomly choosing either ha or fun gameplay
It could have easily worked (with the ability to adjust stats like in BF)
But then the devs went down the “balance out fake gun X with fake gun Y” endless rabbit hole.
But if they only add historically accurate guns they would run out of content really soon. Events and battlepasses keep the playerbase active and if we stop adding prototypes and experimental weapons the devs would have nothing to add for events anymore except vehicle skins that not many care about. Sure they can just copy more planes and tanks from wt but pretty much every standard issue infantry weapon has already been added (except like sten mk5). New nations are not a viable solution either since it will split playerbase, create longer queues and even with new nations like china and france not that much new content would be available since these nations used a lot of foreign weapons. Not to mention that every new nation would require new maps, voicelines and matchmaking changes which would probably take years with the current dev team that has only been able to make 1 new map this year.
whats the name of that game?
Well then it’s a core level philosophical question.
Do the devs want to make an authentic WW2 game, making use of the endless content pot that is WW2, from Poland 1939 up to Manchuria 1945? A one-of-a-kind game that has no rivals on the market?
Or do they want another poor man’s CoD/BF clone with constant “content”, but where “content” is just fakes, prototypes and rodiculous stuff that only devaluates the overall quality and makes people wonder why not just play BFV at this point?
I know I would vote for the former, and it seems very much like the devs changed their views to the latter around 2022.
Same, I actually remember taking on a 5 man supergroup and winning in that same tier 5 game with mainly pre war k98k’s
I don’t use the Pre-war ones expect on my MP-18 squad, for them, I make an exception.
That’s understandable. I mainly use the pre war over the standard issue k98 for its open sights and Rof.
The 15-round Mkb is much less disruptive to immersion than the Japanese running around with Ofenrohr.
I’d much prefer a Type 4 rocket launcher with some pseudo-unrealistic 200 penetration rockets than letting the Japanese run around with Ofenrohr. For the sake of game balance.
But you know, someone found information on the internet that there were supposedly plans to supply the Japanese with German rocket launchers . And now we have to deal with that.
Because it’s supposedly HA. Or whatever.
Pretty much every nation runs around with this.
Not the soviets…yet
No, they get every model of the Panzer Faust and the MP40
If we stick with historical accuracy it will not be endless. As i already said adding new nations would require ton of effort while only giving like 10-15 new weapons per nation excluding copy paste and prototypes and split up playerbase even more. The devs wont even add +0- matchmaking because it might divide playerbase more. Now imagine if they would keep adding new nations constantly. It would be the old campaigns problem all over again.
That is just how it is. If they want to keep the game alive and active without needing to constantly pump out new nations adding prototypes is the only option left. They have literally always done it even in the early days of the game.
Well not really, if memory serves me right, the first gold order/BP weapons were Berdan II and G1888 – not common for WW2 but not insane fakes, the first premiums that I remember were BA-10 and Pz 38t – super common WW2 tanks, no prototype BS.
We were talking about new campaigns and new nations like France, Britain, Finland, and actually got Japan in the end.
Yes, there were Pz III B in Moscow and Sherman Jumbo in Normandy but there was hope those can be later patched.
Instead, the madness creeped in.
It’s not endless either way. WW2 prototypes will end one day too.
The thing is, I would rather Enlisted was a self-respecting game with proper WW2 atmnosphere when content ends and not some pseud-steampunk-Samurai-and-Mad Hans-protytype-field.
well we are one step away from anime light sabers so highly doubt we ever go back to even that remotely HA we had.
And as stated quite many times before, another problem with the HA implement would be which HA.
one wants “genuine” experience no protos or anything just the weaponry that was commonly used
Next is fine with protos if they were used
Next accepts protos if they were made regardless were they used or not
And next is fine even with blueprint protos
And so on.
So theres already ~4 conflicting HA possibilities and the so called HA scene has pretty much disappeared atleast on forums.
But the core game itself is becoming quite boring, I wouldnt mind HA / “lone wolf” or what ever as separate mode.
Regardless I highly doubt such would ever be official mode, so I suppose we can only hope they give proper modding tools so community can make something.
I’ve heard of such a thing for StG and Tiger VI, but not the Ofenrohr? Either way, Ofenrohr really should be replaced. The copypasta is lazy on the developers’ end.
