Hello, friends, as you might know - axis side have almost all famous weapons of soviet side.

Its Mosin rifle in premium
Its PPsh obrez no idea how in TT tree
Its PPsh from Stalingrad - decent 71 drum gun
Its PPsh with a box magazine - Mp-41(r) from event
Its PPS for a guerilla squad
Its Murder armed with a ZIS-5 (or 2) gun

A hell of a weapons!

Well, its fine, but soviet side doesn’t have this amount of trophy weapons - Faust at TT (what is historically accurate - millions of it was used by su), mp-40 prem… and a Breda for Stalingrad (lol).

So, it will be perfect to have a decent mg as an event trophy weapon -
Zb for 2 br
Mg-34- for 3 br
Or Mg-42-100 for 5 br

All of it was in use by soviet side - much more then many prototype weapons. So, if you like to give us content and do not make a lot of work about - just give it, would you.

Thx

Yeah, let’s just destroy whatever integrity the factions still had.

What would be poin to have seperate factions in the first place. I really have no clue.

First step would be to give the RPK 1943 a 25 round magazine and make it TT, as far as adding all the other German MG’s :thinking:, I’m not sure, the Soviets already have the most dominant smg’s, so I am assuming a push back from those who are German mains.

IMOP, even a BR2 RPK with a 25 round magazine would still be my MG of choice in BR3, even over the MG34 as I prefer the light MG’s anyway.

What’s a problem to give an mg - which is highly needed, you might don’t know but su at br 2 have an old creep Madsen which is non sence. A lot more zb was in use

If you really want to rile up the German mains, suggest the Soviets get US BAR’s as there were some supplied in the Lend lease act, although they were not standard issue, but when have the Dev’s cared if weapons were standard, or even actually used for that matter. :rofl:

Finnish variant so counts as a unique weapon

I have no idea why this exists. It definitely shouldnt be a thing but atleast the 2 obrezes have different stats and 3d models so they are distinct

Still somewhat unique since it has the early mosin like rear sight and slower firerate

It shoots 9mm and has mp 40 mags. The modifications make this gun unique

Kinda lazy pre order but atleast soviets got the mp 40 as a counterpart

Completely unique vehicle. The fact that the cannon is soviet built doesnt matter

Now tell me how these would be distinct or unique? Did the soviets modify captured mg 34s in some way? If not then they should not be added

Well, it will be fine

Yeah like they did with anti tank weapons it was very bad …

Well, if you strongly need something unique - take this partisan modified mg-13. Its hard to recognise it after all customization

Soviets already have 2 BR3 MGs, there’s no need to give them copypaste.

You forgot that germany is not the only faction soviets steal from.

The most produced british tank of the war valentine is only for soviets

One of the most iconic american machineguns lewis gun is only for soviets

American main apc of the war m3 halftrack is only for soviets

Only soviet p40 can have 250kg bomb

Only soviet hurricane can have rockets

Soviets get bazooka

Soviets get arisaka type 38 carbine

Soviets got m3 lee before americans

Soviets got m4a2 76w sherman

Soviets get the only 100 round tommy that isnt locked behind paywall

soviets get another tommy in stalingrad

Soviets get chauchat

Soviets have by far the most stolen stuff.

They can just buff the rate of fire on DPM its so easy.
I already explained them that it wont be a historic do to how the gasports work Type 99,ZB 30 and DPM despite having differences can have different rate of fire then their predecessors do to the design of the guns. Its a healthy way of devs to balance some guns and it will be far more realistic then other in game guns that have unrealistic rate of fire that dont have mechanical justification even to have it.

Fine for me but captured guns should only be the last resort if added to tt. Otherwise they should be bp guns or premium/event.

This weapon seems much more unique and would fit nicely in soviet tt

Well, if you list it, you have only like two guns less, which is not that impressive in terms of gopü.

Breda 30
Panzerfaust 60
Panzerfaust 100
MP40

And if we count pistols:
Mauser C96

Dont forget Madsen, as the gun was made by the Danes and only the Russian Empire used it.
Or the Winchester, which is still an American rifle.
Or Event Browning HI-Power and Astra.

Matilda isnt actually available. Soviet matilda is in editor but it was never added to the main game. But thank you for pointing out couple guns i missed. The soviets have so much stolen stuff that it can be hard to remember it all

I wonder why you try so hard to avoid a weapons that

  1. higly needed - especially at br 2 or br 5
  2. that properly owned by su. All this gear was transfered by Land-lease so yes, even a big books writen about it.

But DP with a box magazine can be given also, agreed
