How to make the Tommy gun for the New paratrooper squad 100% more interesting xD

RSAF Enfield suppressors

For covert operations, soldiers required quiet weapons. The Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield made several attempts at creating a solid silenced submachine gun, with their STEN Mk.IIS being the most successful. Their lesser-known efforts include an integral suppressor for the M3 Grease gun, which, although apparently more efficient than the OSS’s suppressor, was never adopted. The M1 Thompson was also fitted with a suppressor at Enfield, issued in small numbers to Commandos. Although the Thompson was not a difficult weapon to suppress, the designers at Enfield seem to be the only people to have attempted it. If there are other examples, they didn’t see service.

Can we just add suppressor to it if you don’t want to put it to BR II at least give it suppressor :frowning:

I’d just start by putting the new para squad the same br as… well the normal m1a1 tommy…

Why are those para br3?

I know it would be so much easier if they put them in BR II but if they want them so badly to be BR III at least make it more unique.

Well hope they make it BR II then cuz its not very good at BR III considering you have better tommy at BR II.

Hot take maybe, but event squads dont need to be OP, I think it will be more than workable at BR3, the M1A1 is under BR’ed anyway atm.

Well I hope so I simply dont think they will be amazing squad the tommy is just too boring variant for BR III.

All they need to do is give it a duel magazine animation (faster first reload) and more ammo like the other duel mag SMGs then it would warrant it being in BR 3.

Well I hope so to me it looks like wasted potential but a paratrooper squad is a paratrooper squad xD

The new Para Thompson will be the worse SMG at BR2 and BR3, so putting it in BR3 is a kick in the dick and makes zero sense, but hey, when do the Dev’s make sense?

If premium and event squads came with interchangeable weapons, the Para Thompson would be shit canned the moment it entered my inventory and replaced with a competent SMG for what ever level I chose to use it in.

Allies already have 2 event paratrooper squads on BR2, Im sure its actually better for everyone to keep this squad on BR3 and buff them if necessary.
M1A1 Thompson shouldnt be BR2 in the first place.

Because that’s where normal m1a1 should be. Pretty dumb question.

I hope the placement of this squad on BR3 indicates planned changes to tech tree m1a1 in near future.

Well fuck you too buddy :slight_smile: (got up from bed on the left foot?)

I can rephrase my question as: “why is it not the same BR as the regular m1a1 analogue” if you prefer…

Well one little suppressor will fix that making it BR III weapon :smiley:

I wouldn’t mind it, but at the same time it would become an entirely different weapon… :thinking:

I just want devs to be more consistent with br. To stop putting everything all over the place.

Well its not a premium squad and if they want it to be BR III and interesting no one will refuse suppressed paratrooper squad imagine the possibilities :smiley:

No. The M1A1 was right to be moved. More Thompsons need to move down too. I.e the M21/28 & M1928A1 50.

Ya’ll want a para thompson 30rd 6 man squad with 2 second reload facing down BR1?

I said why is the weapon br different since it’s basically just a m1a1 skin.

As to uptier/downtier, let them lock br +/-0 already. Shit is getting old.

i see .5 sec faster reload, Close to same accuracy, on a squad with 22 weapons handling.

Its better, esp when you factor in the soldier. I think its fine as BR3 personally.
