If m42 and m1928 Thompson, these two br2 gold squads go to br3, then 7.63 Thompson should also go br3. Since m42 and m1928 they both have strong weapons, as strong as 7.63 Thompson. But m42 and m1928 are br2 squads. So why should Thompson 7.63 be moved to br3? Two strong weapons still stay with 6 people still stay in br2!
Exactly
First of all, Marine Corps Thompson, if you want to advance to level 3
The magazine capacity must be increased to 30 rounds.
Joint Defense If it is to be raised to level 3
It is necessary to either increase his attack power or increase the capacity of the ammunition magazine. If Kawashima Thomson were to advance to the next level
It also aims to increase attack power and increase the number of personnel.
yes I know, I just want to claim that 7.63 should stay in br 2 and add one guy, since two strong squads also stay in br2 and have 6 members
To be honest, I feel quite bored. This issue has been causing a lot of confusion since the game was first released. The segment from that test video has been a point of contention ever since. The DF team has even removed it from the test server. Originally, the Soviet side had this pioneering advanced technology. Germany didn’t lack semi-automatic rifles like the Soviet Union. Why focus on the G-41 specifically? The only German semi-automatic weapon I use now is the 3rd level 10-round magazine one, which I obtained through lottery and purchases of 6 Pavise SVT. I just don’t understand it. The requirements for reducing the weight of the Zh29 and G43 seem much easier than this one. Keeping such high requirements all the time, what exactly are the thoughts of those playing the Soviet faction? This is pure jealousy. And it doesn’t conform to history. It’s purely a violation of history for the sake of balance. Other parts of the forum have also criticized the violation of history. This is simply unreasonable. History is history. Reality doesn’t care about balance. These two guns, the Zh29 and G43, already have the greatest balance in BR3. Maybe Japan could use the Zh29 in the future, and Germany might use the optimized G43. As long as DF figures everything out, everything can be explained well. Why? Why must we focus on Svt? Is it really necessary to think that BR3 can’t have a complete semi-automatic mode? Then at that time, only Garand would still have a full magazine. And then, wouldn’t there be people later demanding to load the magazine one bullet at a time and then insert it into the gun? This is a very increasingly negative discussion. Instead of aiming for improvement, they are deliberately trying to drag everyone down with them.
The squad is already strong
Yeah but premium squads are getting buffed so it only makes sense to buff its even further
I’m not entirely sure that logic sticks up
since it is now weaker than two USA gold squads because 7.63 only have 5 soldiers but m42 and m1928 have 6 members. why shouldn’t it be enhanced? Isn’t it a appropriate logic? You could say it is strong enough, but compare to the other two squads, Thompson 7.63 isn’t strong enough
You said balance is important. Other squads are buffed, why shouldn’t 7.63 also be enhanced? Isn’t that a balance? Since all of them have great weapon, but two don‘t have 16 red and one only have 5 members. Two now have stronger survivalbility, why shouldn’t the 7.63 Thompson also has stronger survivalbility?
Also even though it has strong weapon, 5 members is easily to vaporize on the battlefield, so it isn’t strong enough actually. 6 members squads have the same members as the normal gold and activities squads. So five member squads even doesn’t reach the average. But we have two 6 members with also strong weapons in also br2, why shouldn’t Thomson 7.63 be enhanced? Isn’t it a balance, to add one guy to Thompson 7.63? Then these three squads would be balanced, since they all have strong weapon and all have 6 members. Or you are just discriminating the Chinese squads? USA squads should be enhanced? But Chinese squads shouldn’t? What logic is that? Two be enhanced, the weaker one should also be enhanced, that is balance. Isn’t it? I paid for this squad, so I know that it is easy to vaporize on battlefield, even though it have strong weapon, and it should be enhanced, also because we have m42 and m1928 as two examples, same bar, also strong enough weapon but 6 members.
I’m struggling a bit to decipher this
The 1928 and UDP are ever so slightly weaker than the Chinese Thompson. Main issue with balancing those 6 man squads is that they carry 5 of those weapons rather than standard 4 you’d see in TT assualter squad. On top of that the BR2 makes it so the SMGs are the strongest weapon choice to get
The weapons are surpassing even outlier weaponry in power like PPS-43, Type 100 and Owen. You could technically implement this buff but it’d be great to being certain SMGs up to the standard other stat beasts (like Lanchester and Beretta getting more damage)
Main issue is that those premium weapons are really goddamn strong and event at 6 man squad you are losing a machine Gunner in exchange for your engineer to also wield this premium weapon. This makes it so that if the gun is exceptionally powerful the squad becomes really strong even at lower soldier count
UD have rate of fire 920 per min and 6.8 hit power and m1928 have rate of fire 810 per min with 8.2 hit power. 7.63 have rate fire 810 per min and 6.8 hit power. Just compare the time to kill, How do you get that 7.63 Thompson is stronger than UD and m1928? 7.63 has absolutely longer ttk than UD and M1928. So the gun with greater ttk have lower magazine and three guns all have low recoil. For close range and middle range fight, 7.63 has longest ttk. For far distance, three smg couldn’t effectively kill enemy, UD and 7.63 have terrible low damage and 1928 have slow bullet flying speed. How do you get that 7.63 is stronger? I have three squads, and my directly feeling is that, three weapons have same strength.
I don‘t know you have three squads or not, but I would say three weapon are actually similar strength. 7.63 isn’t stronger than UD and m1928. Maybe you could hate .45 low flying speed of bullet, but M42 is absolutely same strength with 7.63 Thompson, if you just compare ttk, UD is much stronger.
Both based on my personal experience and data analysis, 7.63 isn’t stronger than UD and m1928
One soldier is hardly a change… as with the mp 40 silenced i like the AT gunner with an SMG… and people using this as an excuse to uptier it to 3 lol.
No no no. In low strength battle, one solider have hardly change. But in high strength battle, 1 solider is absolutely essential. One more solider means one more possibility. Compare to UD and m1928 squad, I could directly feel that 7.63 squads is much more easier to vaporize on battlefield, but 6 member squads can absolutely live longer
But I respect to your personal preference
The TTK of all those 3 guns is actually extremely similar. Despite the USMC having higher dmg, the lower velocity really does make a huge difference in the TTK, landing it at 0.258s, while the UD has 0.2699s and Chinese Thompson at 0.2776. But its 0.01s TTK difference for 10 and 5 bullets better mag size respectively, as well as having low recoil
I guess theres an argument to be made about USMC being strong due to extremely low reload times as well as better dispersion rates
Could be my take is a bit biased because comparatively to other ‘outlier’ SMGs at BR2 TT the guns perform similarly good, and compared to other common guns like Beretta or Lanchester they are just better by significant margain and it bothers me
Maybe indeed Im fighting a wrong battle and should seek buffs to certain 6.8 damage ~600 RoF SMGs in the TT
emm what is TT …
I guess tt means weapons on the tech tree? It’s reasonable, gold weapon should be much stronger than silver one. Since you pay money to buy, and the weapon on tech tree are the weapons that you don’t need real money to buy. The player pay real money for the game, so it is reasonable to get a much stronger squad. Emm but you are right, control balance is essential, if gold squads is extremely strong, and silver squads is extremely weak, it is absolutely a problem. Tech tree weapons should be enhanced, for some 600 rof with 6.8 damage weapons, they should get some buff
You get what you paid for(real money). That’s why gold squad is much stronger. But enhance some weak br2 weapons is actually a good suggestion. Or the game would be very unbalanced.
