I would agree with you on that except that we already have Brittish gear in the US tree, brens, stens, lancasters, piats … etc .
So why not firefly ??? As I said it makes more sense than Jumbo …
I would perfer to have another campaign with Brits only … but I’ll settle for adding them to current Normandy camp

And the grenades are as powerful as the 5000k pe8 bomb

if they add bar for the infantry, i could throw my compassion for allies out the window and spam fg42
Bren’s vision is too bad, if the BAR is provided to the infantry, the U.S. military will qualitatively change.

Sorry bar

The funny part is that bara1 is already statistically similar to fg42

and it is strange, if they had given it to the tier 2 engineers from the beginning, there would have been no problems, plus the g43 is already superior to any american semi automatic, fg42 is an overkil

In fact, I have been thinking about a possibility. Maybe the U.S. military had a high winning rate in the previous version (referring to Normandy without MP43, Panthers), although the infantry weapons are obviously worse than the Germans, but for some reasons, the US military has a high winning rate. So the developer added MP43 and Panthers to the German army, making the original poor balance even worse. That is to say, the developer may adjust the balance of the game based on the statistics of the winning rate? So if this version of the US military has a very low win rate, maybe it will be able to obtain powerful weapons to counter the Germans in the next major update?

they were winning a lot because almost all the new players started from the united states, so the germans were almost all bots, now the situation has turned upside down, with many joining the german veterans for easy wins and the united states is full of new players and bot

I have always felt that the developer intended to make the FG42 appear in the game as a machine gun. After all, its initial ammunition was 20/80, which is obviously the number of ammunition for the machine gun.I don’t know why, it eventually became the weapon of the rifleman, and became the strongest rifle in the game.

I own the pz4 armored version in berlin, and it does sustain more enemy fire.
Can’t tell for sure if it’s the tracks or not, but I die way less from a single shot inside one.
I hope that the developers can see this situation to provide the US army with powerful equipment to counter the German army in the next major version. But this is just to give the US military players hope and motivation to continue playing, there is still a lot of garbage to unlock before they can get powerful weapons.
seems stupid but cool at the same time lol
agree, fg42 had to be like the bar is just too strong, the other factions have some sort of balance for automatic rifles, like the russians where svt is superior to avs in some things while avs is superior to svt in others, the right balance

I think the most suitable place for FG42 is to replace the bad Breda machine gun. It should be in that position.
let me take a guess.
the same reasons why T60s survives from pz IVS and the best PZ IIIs ( J and E ) ?
perhaps, the same reasons why a bloody t34s can survive from panthers?
( sometimes when shooting the turett with the 88 )
or, even the m5 from almost every german tanks ( which some of the german tanks, and exactly the pz IV series from normandy and above or even the pz III the prem in normandy ) they all share in common one thing.
and that thing is
awefull
damage
model.
you shouldn’t be new to this. and i’m amazed how you can’t get it yet.
no matter which tank it is, or the gun in question, as long it’s slighlty angled, it becomes magic.
because i find hard to believe that " realistically " speaking a pz iv sustain more damage then a panther.
No one stated that.
I state that it does sustain more fire (comparing it to a normal pz4) in the batlefield.
More times than not, I die from a single shot inside a pz4, and the armored version can sustain more shots untill one pens.
I can’t tell fore sure if it’s the tracks or what ever. But it’s more survivable than the normal pz4. Way more.
Also, with faster turret speed in-game. Always a plus.

which again, it’s because of the damage model.
i can guarantee you that it does not sustain more fire than the others tanks.
( i mean, it kinda does because you are being saved by whatever is the problem with tanks, but it will not last forever )
just because you bought it, and have some sort of " affection " with it, doesn’t mean it’s truee. nor justify the existance.
it does not have incredible survivability as a pro guaranteed for no reason.
i can assure you that.
i’m mean, perhaps my negativity is more on the price, because it’s unreasonable, but even if you get it, it’s still a pz IV against T34s, SU85s and gods only know what will come next.
which having speed in straight line maps isn’t always a good thing.
sure, you can ambush, but infantry will make you no favor.
at least, that’s my view on it.
and to be honest, i saw only one pz IV J commando version as a russian. took it out with the t34 easely.
might have been luck, or in your situation, rusky don’t know how to shoot.
which it’s ironic, because in real life the commando version ( or more like, in wt ) it’s actually even slower than the normal J version.
they either butchered that one as well. or i don’t know, perhaps a buff for a tank.
cant care much about the price, or the affection to it, its a game.
but from all my gameplay time with it, it does indeed did sustain more fire in comparinson to the normal pz4 version in berlin. i m comparing only the normal pz4 in berlin with the premium pz4, again in berlin.
the armored version indeed sustained more fire than all my playtime in the normal version. alot of times a single shot its enough to kill the normal version, where the premium did survive way more on alot more encounters.
atleast, from my experience with it since i own it. it has nothing to do with the way i angle my tank or damage model, its simply a more capable tank comparing it to the normal version,. maybe why, there is a “armored” in the name.
again. my experience ingame with both normal pz4 in berlin, and the premium version since i own both fully upgraded:
oh and ofc, both squads have the gunners perk for better tank scope usage btw:
and ingame, its visible the turret transverse speed on the premium version comparing to the normal one
that extra star, might be the reason why.
on topic, the version on normandy doesnt have the side skirts like the berlin version:
i might buy it if its indeed a premium version, i wouldnt mind another tank squad to play with. love them.
if both pz4 and firefly come as event rewards , i ill fight for both , they both look sick!
