Gameplay and balance should only be adjusted within reasonable historical/aunthentic/immersive boundaries.
Adding Su-9 1946 to Soviets because they didn’t have a jet or Ho-Ri from 2017 to Japan because they never made a IS-2/KTH/Pershing equivalent is simply insanity and not “balance”.
idk about BR4, but Germany is defo lacking in the SMG / Assault rifle BR4 area. Only thing is the Kerali, which, when against other nations, is kinda mid
mkb 42 at IV will be very historical and gameplay good, they could also put avs 36 there, just nerf their accuracy/rof or something, there’s absolutely no reason for germany to have like 4 same assault rifles on br5 in same line
You’re using it wrong. The same argument is used all the time for germany’s guns such as the g43. Ppsh is used for clearing rooms and running&gunning. Mkb/g43 shine at longer distances with much better accuracy. It’s a difference in play style. Don’t hate on a gun simply because it doesn’t fit your playstyle. It surely fills a role and fits someone else’s.
Yes, this is the irrational logic behind every german main. They’re trying to live a nazi fantasy wet dream. They enjoyed completely unfair matches for so long, like tigers vs shermans, that they’ve completely forgotten what balance is and will get upset when it’s actually present. They’ll try to make a historical argument most of the time, but their idea of “history” is a twisted and skewed perception that is no where close to being accurate. They are simply living in a delusional realm trying to get off.
“Near as good as fellow br3 assault weapons”… What weapons are you comparing it to? The ZK? The PPSH? The Thompson? All 3 of these are run and gun weapons and are not supposed to be used in the same manor. Not to mention it’s the only AR in br3. Everything else you’re comparing it to is not a true comparison to begin with. It would be nice if it had 20 rounds, but we have a ton of people trying to knock it down to 10 as it is and it shouldn’t be dropped to br2 regardless. Maybe it needs a slight buff to reload? But we’ll still get people complaining about it being weak simply because of it’s rate of fire. To that, i use the same argument that it’s not being used right. They work great on the assault engineers. If you use them as they are intended along with using the engineers as intended, it’s a fantastic setup. The second you start treating the engineers as real assaulters you’re going to feel it.
No amount of buffs could make it a viable br3 assaulter weapon. The majority of br2 smgs are better than the mkb 15.
The role of a assaulter weapon is to assault (that usually suggests a close range fight). It sounds to me that this gun would be more suited to a being a rifleman weapon instead of being in the assaulter category because it’s so very different to every other assulter weapon.
