I played my first two matches in the event, the first with Italy and the second with UK. I liked it, But replace the Berreta M1 and OVP M1918 with the Berreta M38A 40 rounds and the Berreta M38/42
Replace PzB 38 and 39 (I don’t know which one is in the event) with Wz 35
And replace the M1895 mannlicher with the Carcano M41 and Carcano M1891
It seems I was a crybaby before, played one (long) match and got 4700 points. So it seems doable after all even for casual players. My only issue now is the nonstop 10 day format.
Okay, I was mentally prepared thanks to the leaks and being disappointed, BUT JESUS CHRIST
We’ve waited two years for a real event with Italy and what you’re presenting us is just this? Not even four weapons?
An M14 skin without even a squad (and you could have done that, damn it, since you presented us with three damn premium squads that are COPY AND PASTE)
A Lewis that the community requested for the TT AND NOT AS AN EVENT, and I don’t care if there are other variations because this is a stupid decision like the Chi-Ha AND YOU KNOW IT.
And the CEI Rigotti, which is basically the most decent thing about the event, BUT THERE’S ONLY ONE, (and let’s not forget that he uses the wrong clips since he has to use his big 25-round clip to work).
all for 9000 points instead of the previous 5000 who had given us 3 weapons andONE SQUAD
Why?
Germany does not have any automatic AT rifles in TT
Soluthurn is good in BR1 but very weak in BR2
which is why i said remove prone requirement
its semi auto with a ten round magazine
the best armor penetration of an at rifle
the only ten round soviet at is bolt action
the us at rifle is five round magazine
even japan is a weaker semi auto 8 rounds and worse armor pen
but if you want to keep it at br1 leave it as is with the prone requirement everyone loves
Okay, let me try to add a few thoughts on this. I can only speak for the British side because I don’t really play the Axis. We have a British MG Squad in game, but no BR III or higher British MG’s in the TT, (same goes for BR II American ones, but that’s besides the point)…now, I’m relatively a new player, I’m not sure how many British event reward MG’s are out there but you had the perfect opportunity to fill a gap for a BR III British MG and you only give us ONE while the maximum of Machine Gunners in an MG Squad is THREE. Why do you still persist on this artificial scarcity? This gun and it’s 97 round counterpart should’ve long been a TT weapon. I won’t even touch on the 9K points requirement…that’s daily…for 8 days.
I wouldn’t say decent but it’s an okay “fighter” I love it too but it’s far from a good one
the bomb load is far from ideal while the uk one got 500 x2
the flight capability isn’t the same too
Imma be honest , the rewards are very bad , very bad only one of each and giving a Lewis MG in it’s standard configuration as event reward and Cei Rigotti not having its 25 round stripper is just adding insult to injury .
You could have easily given an Early Model Lewis MG with early disk magazine which had capacity of 50 instead of 47 or could have easily given a Plane Lewis converted to ground use .
(One of many Aircraft lewis MGs that was converted to ground use)
But most of all , only one of each gun is infuriating.
