Remove the damage reduction from Soviet body armor before Manchuria drops

I’m gonna be honest, I don’t really know what both yes options really mean. But I definitely want it gone

The other one is also helmets (at least that’s what I read there)

yes its the german eggi event squad which allows you to eat 80% of damage to the head basically allowing you to survive 1 headshot

but this feature is only on 1 squad unlike body armor but soviet babies use it as an excuse to justify body armor existence

Its rather easy to take the moral high ground here and in all the fairness say it should also go away.

Absolutely no one even knew it existed since against SF / BA / SA rifles it does nothing other than makes you 10% less dead.

And no one wastes time to aim head with smg.

But as said, we want to be fair so it should also be removed.

I mean yeah of course I never mean to generalize it like that. But you definitely can find some very strong body armor defenders even from this thread on the russian side of the forum. But of course all is different and I appriciate all the support, regardless of anything

Helmets also provide a 10% reduction to the head. Just the only treshold it breaks is that you actually can survive SMG headshot at 50m range or something like that

I wanted it included because well, someone might like either all headgear give 10% reduction or all helmets dont provide it

That’s the problem, germany’s guns are balanced for russia, which includes higher damage on guns for body armor making them stronger against u.s. Germany players always trying to one up russia meanwhile they’ve been one uped on u.s.

I’ll take a mg42 100 or mg39 over rd44 any day. It’s really not that great of a mg. 2-3 hit kills with slower rof. I hope you realize you’re describing the german playerbase to a T.

RD44 is without a doubt the best weapon in the game - specifically because it is NOT a MG, it does not have movement dispersion penalties and is basically a STG44 with MG capacity.

To be fair, MGs broadly will get buffed, which RD44 specifically wont benefit as much as other MGs, but I suspect that for the ideal gameplay of run and gun, this weapon specifically will stay the best of the best.

No MG one hit kills because they all deal under 13.5 dmg.

Unless when fighting long range, RD44 deals the exact same damage as all the other MGs.

Only takes 2 hits same as mg 42 and unlike that gun this is mobile and accurate

Not the best weapon but def the best mg.

That’s the biggest nonsense if I’ve ever seen one

Thompson absolutely compete with the German SMGs. Owen SMG is one of the best SMGs in terms of BR2 stats. They have Lanchester and Lanchester 50 for BR2 and BR3. Thompson with 810 ROF at BR3

RD is 2 shot at 200m range, just like all the other MGs. Where did you even pull the 3 shots from?

Hell if German olayerbase is just people with the ability to read then sure I’ll take it because seemingly you struggle to even check the statcards before forming an opinion

But devs in all theyr wisdom did not mention anything about the bodyarmor, but hide the attributes so the “bias” saw first daylight after someone datamined them ?

If I recall both lan & tommy has higher ttk than GE counterparts so not exactly sure what mushrooms you took this morning.

I don’t want to upset you, but 99% of those who voted against aren’t Russian. After all, this isn’t a Russian forum, lol.

I think you need to get your house in order.

“The best in game”…this makes me think everything you’ve ever said is complete and utter b.s. i don’t even see it used that often. Hardly in fact. If it was the best gun in game you wouldn’t see anything but full teams of rd44 being cycled one after another. This is enough evidence to completely contradict your statement here and only proves you have some sort of anti russian bias/pro german bias.

Except you cant equip full squads with RD44 just like you cant do full squads of M2 stinger.

Once you unlock the machinegunner squad you will figure out that there is limit of how many machinegunners you can have in 1 squad.
Its quite early unlock so shouldnt take many years from you to unlock it, best of luck.

I said 2-3…if the answer is 2 hits out to 200m and 3 past that. It was an accurate statement now wasn’t it? EVEN if it was 2 hits for infinite meters out, the statement 2-3 hits is still accurate as it’s a range. Stop being a little karen

I guess you also need an english lesson. If the limit for machine gunners is 3 and you have 3 machinegunners in the squad…it means it’s full. So a full squad of rd44s would consist of 3.

Are you keeping up? Not going too fast i hope.

You can constantly cycle 3 different squads incase you weren’t aware. If rd44 was best in game you would see nothing but mg squads with them being played.
