Soviets are not supposed to have better infantry- that ruins the game.

So does germany generally having better tanks, US planes etc etc etc… but those problems arent an issue.

And are you implying body armor makes them the best infantry? Ha… i was referring to their infantry weapons…

winchester, federov 1912, svt 38, AVT 20

pps, ppsh box, federov

PTRS… LMGs are really the only thing they are lacking in 2 but become crazily good with the RD-44. FOr some reason because its technically a rifle cartridge it gets to bypass the normal rule of LMGs generally having high dispersion as a balancing mechanic.

There are other BRs than BR5

mods are just normal players like us. he might have missed news about cap times being reset.

only on BR5 and it can still get one shotted by is2 and super pershing. not to mention it has bugged armor calculation when using explosion pack so it is easily destroyed by any infantry. is2 is turtle compared to it. on other BR everything is competitive.

again only 1 plane on BR5. soviets have great planes on BR2 and BR3

it gives them advantage on all BR regardless of weapons. yes they have great weapons, but body armor gives them even more advantage making other weapon get -1 or -2 BR penalty when against it.

Hm i suppose… stuart crusader and sherman for practicality but the reload of 3n is great… Panther i would consider better than jumbo… T50 definitely superior T28 is decent but it’s clunky… T34 and KV1 have better armor than 3n t 34 85 is on par but it has its quirks… is 2 1944 reload makes it suitable to less aggressive play and thus less damage…but yes can deal with the tiger 2

have to admit again perhaps… soviet planes even in br1 are great, their fighters and bomber scaling accordingly… IAR has better ground damage… besufighter is an awesome BRIV plane however the p51 is where is starts to get good

What? It’s like what one extra shot with semis and slightly higher ttk for autos? BR penalty? So the STG becomes on par with BR3 smg?

And japan? I don’t even care… cry for manchuria so much so they can make excuses why armor needs to be removed or their weapons need to be buffed? They are supposed to be the strongest I dunno do better for the emperor.

if you want same he spammer reload, then you can take scott. pz3n was great on BR2, but it is mediocre on BR3.

in anti tank warfare yes. vs infantry jumbo is better. also you can get 76w which has much faster reload than panther.

t28e is best overall choice for BR2. t50 is better if you are against tanks

reload is shit for is2. they need some 100mm variant in their TT.

  • with exception of few event/premium smg and kiraly, all TT smg get their performance below or on par with ppd34 with bigger magazine(6.1 or 6.3 damage)
  • g43 against body armor gets performance worse than svt38.
  • fg42 II gets worse damage than fedorov/type hei AR, but with worse handling and smaller magazine
  • i could also go with japan weapons, but it is same story

BA, AR and MG are probably only weapons that are not influenced by body armor(or they are minimally influenced) cause of their damage tresholds.

When a soviet BR2 SMG can have 800 rpm and 3 hit kills ( PPS43) - and body armor turns ZK-383 from a two hit kill into a three hit kill, then yes, Soviet armor basically gives-1 BR penalty.

No, it’s not. After nerf to its armor, T-50 is mediocre at best.
