Imagine being a soviet player, having to fight endless paratrooper spam after the merge. But hey rejoice you’ve got a nice handmortar, obviously the most OP weapon in that game !
The luftfaust can pen any tank the Soviets field on top of having a bunch of high damage rockets my dude
I think you should take a step back and try and muster some self awareness
But if its in a doorway like he mentioned, splash isn’t really needed there, eh
Btw. the dispersion of most German SMGs are either almost on par with Soviet SMGs or has a difference of like 0.05. Its not really that shit, at least not as shitty as German ones. PPSh has reload time of 2.9, German SMG reload time varies much for some reason, I make the bold claim that the average reload time is something like 2.3-2.5. 20 mags are not even the fastest ones for reasons.
That being said, Kiraley as counter is fine due to decent mah size and way better dmg, let alone MP, StG and Mkb.
MP38 used to be best counter to PPD but DF nerfed the MP38 silently for some reason as it now has 0.65 disperion, which is like 0.4 higher than I remember.
That is trulely unfair (mostly because I love the MP38) but I guess a gold order weapon from 2021 is a bigger issue for German mains for some reason.
you’re letting letting too much these clowns getting into your head believing that germanys struggles
find me, and equivalent of the soviets to the mp38 and / or mp 35.
i doubt you’ll find anything better in the soviet side.
germany is more about precision while somewhat high dps and soviets are more about brttt with somewhat reduced damage.
which it’s why this game is asymetrical balance.
russians are more for cqcs and germans for mid to long ranges.
( yes, there are exceptions, but exceptions do not define the actual " rule " )…
i would like to remind y’all that soviets don’t really have good machinegunes outside those protos.
so, it’s somewhat normal that they have more flavor of smgs rather than other type of weapons.
but i’d still say germans are somewhat allrounders compared to others factions.
( ps. before the funny individual will comment " that’s why you play germany " no. that’s not the reason. also, playing as germany you’ll face alot of smoothbrainers as teammates. which it’s not really something great. also, i don’t play only germany. i’ve mained the ruskies and allied too. even though, i must admit, germany is more fun )
pps-43 and Thompson in Stalingrad are the closest things they have, not that those wouldnt be good.
This is the assymetrical balancing for you, USSR has great cqc smg to make up for this.
which, the problem is not in soviets being op for cqc.
but rather, maps are mostly made in cqc " style " with few exceptions.
( which, it’s why we have tanks to dump some HES on capzones, and engage from the distance. rather than keep going on the objective and getting squad wiped )
Im not saying that they are struggling. I just questioned ONE point, Jesus (and even there I said that late Soviet SMGs have dent German counters).
Im just saying, that the “drum bad, 20 mag and 0,1 dmg superior” meme is getting old.
MP38
D: 0.65

PPD-40

Hard choice. What would you pick? The weapon with twice the ammo or the weapon with like 0.4 and 0.3 better dispersion?
MP35/I
D: 0.65
RT: 2.9
Mag: 32
PPD34/38

Again, same question.
Where is the shitton of reload time and dispersion?
With StGs etc, not really with their SMGs.
Soviet MGs are slightly more accurate and the Germans have more rof and bullets with the mickey mouse MG34. Its matter of taste (not counting the RD-44 and the Dispersion-MG15).
I gave up on this topic long ago.
The problem with Grey´s suggestions that people dont even consider the possibility that he could be right. Everytime he posts something like this, people end up whining that paras this, tanks that, dispersion and recoil…
Because of the fire that started in here and the fact that no one can seem to see the problems that will appear when people start working together with these unbalanced weapons.
i’m not a nerdy stat, but mp40s, works just nicely in tunisia.
which it’s one of the most mid to long ranges maps.
surely if a lunatic like me can make the use of the mp 40 ( or berettas for that matter. even mab ) when i attempted to grind the bike ( pre paras or bredas carcano phase with the whole allies stomp ) i’m fairly sure anyone can.
quick bursts make sure work of those pesky thommy GI’s or tommies for that matter.
and you’re telling me with the mp35 / 34 which it’s even better than the mp40 one would have issues?
i don’t know rick. it seems false.
that’s the key word.
slighlty.
as an mg34 enjoyer ( over the 42 )
you can decimete their funny assaulters with those so scary smgs and what have you.
you just gotta play like a rat, sit in the corner of hallways or doors, and spray and pray.
heck, in combinations with grenades and smoke i seriously struggle to see any problems.
he did made some… which i can unfortunately count on one hand good suggestions.
unfortunately, because the ammount of sheer bses against those said rmn 50 and soviets is literally more than his suggestions.
which it’s kinda why he has that reputation.
well, as it goes for the topic ( which you can avoid criticism all you want, it’s not really gonna deflect it )
a 10% resistance from pistols it’s not the end of the day.
if you want to tackle that, suggest about a slight speed reduction.
but no. you had to take the hard way and complain about non issues.
