It is possible to issue automatic rifles only to fighters,and to the rest of the classes(engineers,radio operators, etc.) only semi-automatic rifles.
I don’t understand why you both have so much time for such discussions?This has been going on for two hours now.Well, it’s up to you.
Oh, I’m sorry, it’s been going on for ten hours
If we were in a more realistic ww2 setting there would be similar numbers of automatic weapons, with every squad having a couple smgs and lmgs each, to say nothing of late war Germany with stg44’s everywhere…
But as for “no one wants so many automatics”, I’d disagree, what with others in this thread advocating for the opposite, and from my observations, it doesn’t seem to me most people have an issue with automatics to the degree you do.
in a more realistic ww2 setting you would have the majority of bolt action rifle and semi auto. kinda like what enlisted is somewhat about and was about until the introduction of weapons for everyone.
( that almost everyone disliked so much, that apparently people still make threads about it ).
but enlisted should not be taken for realism. because it’s not.
it all comes to simple common sense of gameplay balance.
having few automatic weapons =/= all automatic weapons are similar.
this system cannot work.
it barely do already.
you are just making things worse.
i can already imagine threads about facing entire enemies made of stgs.
and therefore the stg will be nerfed.
because as far as i can tell, you are not facing objectively your own thread. which many people do, and many commits the same mistake.
once again, you are just putting more fuel on the fire.
which if you like getting shred by ppsh over moscow, or full enemies of stg in berlin, bve my guest, but ain’t gonna take part of it.
and not until i can prevent that.
you are free to do so.
maybe because since the alpha we actually complained about automatic weapons, and until at some point, they got somewhat limited than before.
and as far as i can recall from other posts. i can see that people still don’t like them.
they are just tired to reapt what i’m currently doing under every post.
Darkflow has more bilingual and english-native staff members than Gaijin proper, and Keofox as well as members of the dev team do read the english suggestions area on a semi-regular basis - though they rarely reply. (it does happen, occasionally though, where you’ll get a dev reply)
Edit; they also browse trending topics on the reddit and pop into the English chat of the Discord on rare occasion. It’s not a super-regular thing with the latter, but I’ve seen it.
Yeah, I suggested that a new class be added that take over using the heavier weapons like the STG, Fedorov or AS44, so that they had a more limited presence on the battlefield (1-3 Maximum in a Squad of 5 with STGs)
