Gun balance megathread

It does, G41 reloads like Lee Enfield, SVT has a box magazine. G41 was also prone to jamming or not functioning correctly but we can avoid that part and not add it in the game

Bolt actions could be standard guns and Semi autos will be acceptable in limited numbers. This is an exception with americans and soviets who had more semi autos but less MGs compared to germans

Well yes, but gun performance wise (not counting reload) would be mostly the same. One having a slightly faster reload could be balanced out by giving it less spare magazines, or slightly less accuracy, whatever floats your boat

Maybe if they give allies better semi auto rifle and axis better bolt actions, this will feel like a realistic balance

Ahahah
=D Then you have to choose the same with assaulters. You are not serious right

It was a lot of SVT-38 and AVS-36 in soviet divisons in 1941

Sadly I dont thing they will add it in the game, but I do hope devs will add it if soviet win rates stay the same

Its already in game but holded by bots in a lone-mode. And it surely will be in Berlin company (it was there in alpha).

No. Assaulters on both side get to choose among SMGs, but Soviets get to choose a shotgun which gives a drastically different experience.

The Soviet MG is roughly in between the ZB-36 and MG-13 in terms of stats. And offers very similar playstyles to the two guns.

I was not thinking about that, soviet and german semi auto rifles were absolutely identical in alpha, I was thinking about buffing german bolt actions and buffing soviet semi auto

TOZ was nerfed, SMG is better in every way

Doesn’t mean I would love to have a shotgun to use as German player.
Good or bad doesn’t matter too much. I just enjoy the hit and run playstyle, which is only offerred by the shottie, and only for Soviets.

Thinking about crossplay console vs pc i don’t think its a good idea to make console players try to hit a pc player 3 - 5 times with a semi auto rifle. if the kill time gets to high console players will have a very frustrating experience…

This very thread suggests semi-autos killing on 2 hits…?
What are you getting on about?

should have been more clear sorry. at long ranges your OP said 3 - 5.

Long ranges. Aka 100m = 3 hits, 200m = 4 hits, 300m = 5 hits.

For reference, 100m is about the length of the trench at the first point in the town assault map. You can get within 40m of those snipers with ease.

Consoles already have KB/M as an option.
I think the loss of certain controls (like leaning) altogether are the far bigger downside over aiming with a controller.

G41 reload is still bugged. SAD!
