Increase weapon damage for stg44/as44

this is alternative suggestion to

if people dont want to nerf fedorov, then they should not be against buffing other AR to 13.9 damage cause they have ~same muzzle energy as fedorov avtomat. hyde m1944 and type 2a AR would also get buff to their damage, but wont be putting them in this suggestion.

You really shouldn’t come to conclusions from a poll only after 3 hours

it is ok to have alternative to see what is more popular.

Can agree for buff them dmg little bit more than 9.6 but buff same as fedrov isn’t

why when bullets from both stg44 and federov have ~same kinetic energy?

the stg44 should not do battle rifle tier of damage, thats absurd

Why would an StG 44 get 15.3 damage? ~13.9 would be perfect.

Type Hei Automatic does 13.9 damage

MG42 does 13.2 damage

The STG44 should not hit harder than the MG42, that’s stupid.

Totally! High BR MGs should do more damage.

i dont know what to decide to be honest…

Wouldn’t it be better if they introduced an alternative to the STG? One example could be the Scotti Naval Rifle (I recall seeing images of more than one design of the weapon), but in a 20 or 25-round version.I also think the STG44 should be the equivalent of the M2 carbine, since its rate of fire is quite slow.

Alternatives to these could also be the Finnish prototype assault rifles like the AL-43 or the M43. And if I remember correctly, someone in the forums mentioned that the MKB42 (M) was also tested in 8mm Kurz, but I’m not sure about that.

I think I know what’s needed.
Terni Model 1921

25 rounds
Rate of fire ±650
produced about 200 pieces (well, better than a single copy)
cartridge similar to the main 6.5×52 Karkano, but with a modified bullet
there is a bayonet knife

It fired a 7.65x32mm cartridge, it was the Roma MAF that fired a reduced load 6.5mm cartridge. I don’t think we’re super confident about the cyclic rate of any of the MAF weapons from 1921-1928 either.

If it’s 7.65x32mm and has at least 25 rounds with a rate of fire of 650 to 700 RPM, there’s hope it will perform well; otherwise, it would be another Type 2 (6.5mm) in the game.

Rather buff the STG or what they can do is make the mkb42 and mp43/1 available for riflemen

Or if they prefer, they can simply rename the STG44 to MP44 and designate it as an “SMG,” while the STG44 becomes an automatic rifle. I don’t see anything wrong with that, since the M2 carbine already exists and even has a higher rate of fire than the STG.

Furthermore, the Germans did consider standardizing the STG as a replacement rifle for the G43 and Kar98K, and the MP44 designation is also real.

Exactly, as this point there’d be nothing wrong with making the mp43 or stg a riflemen weapon. The Russians already have the best SF rifles in the game and the Americans already have an assault rifle to be equipped on riflemen

In addition, not many changes will be necessary since everything is already in the game, so it would be good if the developers paid attention to that. A new map and those “new” weapons would be enough, since there hasn’t been much new content lately.
