i would also like to point out that .45 acp will always do more damage than all carbines when fully starred

What a shame. It was actually a fun gun to use, when fully upgraded. Not super strong but fun and versatile.
sigh I guess everybody gets the Garand now, no more variety.

But but but… what if they expand to the Ardennes? I’ll never feel like a proper paratrooper without a m1 carbine…
imma still gonna use it because i’m already addicted to the carbine

I just used it in battle and don’t really see some huge difference, as you needed 2 shots before as you need now. And RoF is not that bad either, i rarely used it in room to clear it.

.>which it’s what it’s supposed to be used in order to give it an actual reason on why should remain in this game for what it’s worth right now.
and if it wasn’t for distance this weapons, surely it isn’t now as well.
the carbine needed buffs. not nerfs.
I think there’s something wrong with me because the M1 Carabine is my favorite weapon in the entire game. It’s so rewarding to use if you learn to compensate for the attrocious spray pattern.

I don’t really care to be honest, they can buff it or nerf it, that weapon fits me, i can play with it good, soo as long as it stays that way i’m happy.
Yeah exactly. Not my favorite, that is M1941 Johnson (For American side), but is in first 3 for sure, and i even like it more than M1 Garand.

As someone from the carbine gang, the RoF nerf isnt surprising, but the damage one is. With great practice the M1 was pretty nasty, guess we will see how this shakes things up
The average player sometimes follows in a strange ways…
I found that was too easy to kill with an M1… As I stated a few days ago. Only on close quarters tho. I only have 1 or 2 star ones. Not a single one fully upgraded and still its an amazing fun gun to play with
Sadly the nerf isn’t justified. I was amazed how the fun performed in my hands and I equiped full squads with it.
About vg1-5, it’s still the same hits to kill as befor. Gun performs exacly the same.
I ill test the M1 tonight, I’m kinda “sad”, the gun didn’t need said nerf.
M1 carbine was that one weapon everyone mostly avoids, and nerfing it cannot have any reasonable justification.
Hells, even before nerfs I much rather used pistol instead of M1 carbine and had better results (okay, that one is probably subjective, but you get the idea… M1 was terrible already).

it wasn’t terrible, just subpar though with these nerfs it solidifies the m1 garand as the best infantry rifle for the US with lee being 2nd

No. only slight reduction to damage that didnt affect weapon anyhow.

Exactly. People just complain cause they KNOW there was nerf
But its sad m1 carbine got nerfed, it wasnt over performing or anything

Yes, IRL can all weapons in the game take down(not kill) a person when in a distance like 10m, but for some balance reasons they cannot. Even though put all these aside, the .30 carbine still has no reason to deal more(or equal) damage than 7.92 Kurz. .30 carbine is more a pistol caliber than a rifle caliber, compared with 7.92 Kurz it has less muzzle energy, less velocity, poor penetration due to its round warhead, it was often reported in the Pacific that two or even three shots at a slightly longer range could not incapacitate the enemy. In short, letting it have the same damage stats as an assault rifle is unrealistic.
Nerf M1 carbine is just a good begining, they should buff 7.92 Kurz next.
or they could just give the v-g the +20% more damage buff stat that LITERALLY all smg and semi autos have because the m1 carbine’s base damage is less than v-g and the g43 with kurz ammo is already doing 10.0 damage because of the +20% so there is no reason not to give v-g it. oh interesting fact is that FG still has the ROF increase and +20% same with AVS so maybe they should remove those 2 from those 2 guns

It would be a good idea, but it would make Stg(not VG1-5 because it’s just a semi-auto) OP, and countless crybabies on the forum, so…
