Does this book actually mention variants of the MG34? Not the early MG45 or MG42? Then I think we could even introduce a new version of the MG39 as an event weapon. If the base rate of fire is different, that alone makes the weapon distinct from the original—it could essentially become a new Weapon 2.0.
Actually, Декард suggested nerfing the rate of fire, but they couldn’t really provide solid evidence for it. It’s like those who pushed for nerfing the SVT38—they knew it had two loading methods but kept emphasizing “balance” as the reason to weaken it. In that case, Soviet players could also argue that, in the name of balance, German machine guns should be adjusted to match the average rate of fire of slower-firing machine guns at the same Battle Rating.
Instead, forums should serve as a platform for monitoring game content and providing constructive feedback — excluding bug reports, which belong elsewhere. Now, everyone is just obsessing over this one weapon, turning the atmosphere toxic. Those of us who actually propose new firearms, better game modes, and meaningful improvements are few and far between.
There is some notorius researcher of axis arms told the same
The safety catch was mounted in the receiver on the left side above the pistol grip for fire control.
The reloading handle was located on the right side of the receiver and remained stationary during firing. The main infantry weapon, which was planned to make a single MG.34 machine gun, needed a high rate of fire. Therefore, the complex regulator of two firing rates (600 and 1000) was excluded from its design, which was present, along with the deceleration mechanism, in the first MG series.34.
Germany doesn’t need any nerfs, and every suggestion that tries to make each faction a soulless reskin of one another is a suggestion that deserves to be ignored.
The SVT-38 should reload using stripper clips, mainly cause the SVT-40 is pointless otherwise, BR3 Russia is already strong in every other category, and it doesn’t need a needlessly stronger semi auto on top of all the other advantages it has.
I am perfect, but Germany and Japan are much weaker than their Allied counterparts. I’m sure it will become clearer for people like you to see once the Soviets take on the Japanese.
Above all else skill wins battles, but it doesn’t hurt to make sure each faction has some edge over its enemies. The only edge Germany has at BR3 is the MG-34, and here you are asking for it to be nerfed.
I never said that high capacity carbines shouldn’t be given out, the Soviets have one that was a gold order and there’s definitely more that could be added.
I’m not sure how that’s relevant though considering the VG-15 is in a healthy spot right now, meanwhile the SVT-38 overperforms in comparison.
you can check it but for MG 34 there is like a lot of books
Well the forum will never be like this the forum is a place for bunch of edge lords get offended by some other edngelord that suggested something that they dont like that’s pretty much what the forum is but it provides a lot of fun moments xD
Still not relevant because the MG 34 in game does not have this very early RoF selector.
Even if it did, this would be a buff, not a nerf, you can’t point to a early RoF selector as grounds to permanently fix the RoF to the lowest setting, the weapon would be updated to have three firing modes.
Of course, this straight up buff won’t get accepted either, because it would force the MG 34 out of BR III, leaving Germany with no TT alternative for that BR. If, again, this was the same weapon, but it isn’t, there is no “MG 34 Early” in the game, and it’s certainly not what the TT version is depicting.
