For the 40th and possible the last level that we players should get for the Normandy camapaign, i would personally suggest adding newer guns for the sniper class.
These are my level 40 suggestions :
Allies: Lee-Enfield No.4 MkI (T), the same sniper model the can be found on the Tunisia campaign. (Excellent precision rifle, much better than the american’s counterpart)
Axis: Sniper StG 44, the same gun that can be owned by axis players in the late levels of the Berlin Campaign. (A bit higher engagement distance and better target aquisition rifle)
i don’t know if any infantry scoped m1/m2s exist, i know a prototype of m1 carbine was made with a scope and the m3 should be for pacific or a future korea campaign
I didn’t know there were m1/m2 carbines with scopes, I just knew m3 inflared Sniper Carbine, but this one would be really trash because of the quality of the sights. I agree with what you just said, it would be much better if the allies get the m1 or m3 carbine scoped.
Thanks
Yeah, i kind agree, but remember that the allies in Normandy already have/had the air superiority because of all their planes having bombs, and also cqc advantage, having much better guns such as the thompson’s variants, meanwhile the germans just got the MP40 and MP43/StG44, which are not match in cqc
Plus the axis not receveing a better or equivalent tank in the last update is bad, because you ruin one of the only advantage that the germans truly had over the western allied forces during the normandy offensive, so why not giving them (axis) a better guns to duel at medium range and peak target easier? Seems fair to me
But if DarkFlow wants to balance it well, just give the allies the m1/m2 carbine with a scope.
Tiger II(H) in Normandy would turn Normandy into every Tiger drivers’ dream even if Allies get the 76mm Jumbo in response its just Stuarts going to get more 88mm shells much like Panzer IIs being the receiving end of the 76mm F-34 in Moscow.
Sad reality
If this game was balanced, it would put players at close campaign levels and ranks at the same match, but this currently doesn’t happen, then we could get the Tiger II(H) and the Jumbo 76m and fight against fair and experienced opponents.
That’s honestly a terrible idea, camping and sniping isn’t healthy playstyle. There’s no need to support in any way. There’s a decent number of options already. Sniper class isn’t that relevant to be the last big reward of long grind, it’s just nonsense.
This must be sarcasm or else you’re dumb as hell, because everything you said is pure nonsense.
Normandy allies having “much better guns” than the Germans and the MP43/STG44 not being a match in CQC is mind-bogglingly stupid. The Axis get an MP-40 (level 9 unlock) which more than matches in damage output and range and arguably outclasses whatever the allies have up to the Lanchaster (level 26) and Thompsons (level 29). The MP43 is more than enough to match PPSHs in Berlin, why wouldn’t it be able to match an inferior CQC-weapon like the Thompsons?
“Plus the axis not recieving a better or equivalent tank in the last update is bad” - what? You’re actually trolling. Have you played Normandy? How could you claim than an open-top tank, with paper-thin armour and exposed commander (in the campaign that has the most explosions) is superior to what the Axis get? They’re both inferior to the previous unlockable tank but at least the Pz IV/70 doesn’t die to a sneeze.
Your suggestion is to give a scoped-STG, to a faction which mostly plays in well-entrenched, defensive positions, who already has superior defensive long-range weapons like the MG-34/42 and MP43/STGs and give the opposite team, who must push to win, a bolt-action rifle.
