I have all pistols except p38 and premium ppk
If you want my opinion on them:
p08 is okay but not better than c96
TT and TK are absolutely garbage, they have cannon type recoil.
TT can be usable while TK deals worse damage than every German pistol while having on top of that the worst possible recoil
Pistols right now are mostly useless in general. Some are more useless (aka Nagant), some are less useless but that´s really it. Pistols in general needs to be given a bit more thought, or at least I didn´t find them either reliable, nor useful (anything else aside serving as emergency weapon you never use, on classes such as snipers because even then its better to just pick up another weapon from dead body to defend yourself).
they are still useless when you have semi automatic sniper
the problem is, the c96 being better than all the pistols in the game.
can’t say for sure. but from what i tested, it is.
decent recoil, and good damage.
making almost all the pistol in the game pointless.
not to mention, pistols it self are a bit useless since once you runned out of ammo, you can’t do nothing as ammo boxes only fills primary weapons.
I didn´t get to sniper SVT, do not have enough time to actually play for that but I believe you.
However, sniper class was just an example, there are few more who should use pistols because their main armanent is just too heavy or their performance in close range requires to use one.
I think purpose behind pistols implemented that way is, that they are intended to be emergency weapons if you do not have any other choice or until you pick up something else from the ground. However, they absolutely fail to do even that role properly.
er… the problem is, if you have primary weapons in the second slot, the ammo box won’t fill even those.
the whole ammo resupply thingy it’s preatty much questionable. i made a bug report almost 2 months ago if not 3 and it’s still here.
You guys are using pistols!?
Imo, pistols should mostly act as semi auto variants of the SMGS with equal damage and recoil, except for the nagant, which would be a “bolt action” semi auto rifle/LG, with semi’s doing 12 damage compared to bolt action 14-15 damage.
And for some of the pistols, like C96, this is actually pretty well done
Are you talking about rifles or pistols?
Because I think 12 damage is too much for pistols
But 12 damage for semis (instead of 8.5 they deal now) is much better and I think I suggested it after Normandy campaign
Here …I found it
For the nagant, the revolver. With it’s rate of fire, it would be fine for it to deal 12 as you are dead if you miss, like with bolt actions.
Maybe 7 or 8
Because the bullet was similar to one used by the M1 carbine
LMG, firing huge bullets deals 12 damage
Pistols should stay emergency weapons and I don’t think they should deal more than 6 damage and revolvers 8 damage
But pistols can fire 2-3x as fast as the revolver, so in that case the revolver would be absolutely useless.
I feel like the issue with pistol is that they have too much visual and actual recoil. they should be mini laser pointers that you have to shoot a person a lot of times before they de.
The pistols are more lightweight while shooting the same cartridge as the SMGs. They also have no buttstock to help you manage the recoil. So they should have more recoil, not less.
Their lack of range as well as relatively low capacity already makes them emergency weapons.
Imo they should stay weaker than shotguns but still be perfectly viable CQC weapons.
Pistols needing 5 shots to kill something is nonsensical CoD logic.
but also I don’t want CS GO logic where pistols somehow perform better than assault rifles
Simply having the lower rate of fire, shorter range, higher recoil and semi-auto nature should make them enough weaker than SMGs. And then the revolver would handle like a semi auto / LMG turned bolt action, with the very low rate of fire but higher damage.
Realistically a pistol will be better than a long rifle in CQC.
Astra 300 is surprisingly punchy at range.
Update on this topic!
After playing with it for some time,
I have to say Astra 300 is probably the best pistol in Enlisted.
It kills in 3-4 shots, has very little recoil and works great as an emergency weapon for my tank driver
I think all pistols in this game should be buffed to match this gun
