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.
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.
“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.
Ttk alone means nothing other than “potential” without any other circumstances. You already agreed with me that tommy gun is quite nerfed in comparison so not sure why you’re trying to back track here karen.
It’s only recently become somewhat of a fair fight between u.s. and germany after a year or so of neglect, and germany players bitched and moaned the entire time u.s. finally got some attention. Germany was the “golden child”, “the favorite” for years on end, it’s gone to your rotted brains and now y’all act like children throwing temper tantrums when they don’t get their way.
I never complain about RD44 being the best weapon in the game, simply because its limited to MG gunners, a full squad of AVT40 has more effective potential firepower - but RD44 as a weapon compared to other weapons on its own is the best.
In fact I complain much more often that Stinger should get a capacity nerf, because it has visually a 100 round belt box, that incorrectly fits 200 round.
Alot of people complain about Stinger being OP, I am not one of them, again because I consider MG gunners a gimmick - they are just a support unit, with a niche gameplay application, movement dispersion breaks those guns in regular run and gun gameplay.
RD44 is the only MG that is not effected by this, and thus obviously the best MG in the game, since the reasoning for this (intermediate cartridge) doesn’t matter, because full power rifle cartridge MGs dont one hit down to begin with
hmm let me check with imperial percentage calculator
3-7= ~50%
so one machinegunner is aproximately 33% because 50 cant be split to 3
so it seem 3x33% is 99%
Fkng hell, look at that spank me and call me charlie brown. 3 machinegunners is indeed 99% of the 7 men squad and the rest 4 soldiers makes it 125% full squad.
Thanks imperial percentage calculations.
True, but its generally agreed upon that when you compared guns like pps and mp40 its quite enough.
Ofc we got some imperial math professors that goes every now and then full retard and comes up with arguments ptrd bestestest because bestestest ttk strawman arguments.
So in that sense, yes I do agree. TTK leaves way too much wiggling room for people that likes the taste of crayons.
But, you should just ignore them, like I should have ignored you.
Did I ? Ive always said its beast in CQC but due to other shortcomings such as not being that great at long range its kind of fine.
But its not like murrica doesnt have options, like Lanchester which is also better than GE counterparts.
The classic “Flank it brah” which apparently wasnt so good solution after all when the tables were turned.
Tell me more.
Yeah, That memeretta 20 vs ppsh41 was such biased move from devs, how the fk they though ppsh could ever compete with 20 round memeretta that is not capable to waste bullets like ppsh.
I dont mind the murricans get the wheelchair assists and want to “abandon” the ass-symmetrical balance thats fine.
But the benefits that murrica & ussr enjoyed of ass-ymmetrical balance must also be gone.
No cherry picking
Well, I would argue that back during beta, when MGs had NO dispersion at all, and they played like big assault rifles - MG34 in Moscow was quite powerful, combined with Panzer IV HE spam, Germany was pretty busted, also when Normandy got introduced FG42 was unrivaled, wastedwoodsman could have told you that. Also Tiger II H is still quite the target to deal with.
There were ups and downs for all factions, the biggest balance issues of the past in my opinion was Panzer IV H vs Jumbo, indeed beretta 20 vs drum PPSH, Panzer IV J vs T34 85, and Panther, Tiger, Jagdpanzer IV L70 vs what ever the allies had going back in the days.
