Trial by Combat №3

Probably it’s an extremely outdated “Logistics” image even before the gun was available and simply noone noticed it … that image was even incorrect nearly 3 years ago when we introduced the MP-41(r) as a reward from the “Armory: New Shipment!” event.

I couldn’t find a screenshot of the old shop screen in my collection, but on Youtube i found one, uploaded during the original Armory event, same wrong image:

Yeah I also found that topic from 2022, but the gun wasn’t available anywhere at that time (in terms of purchse). If i remember right it was the Armory event in 2023 where it first became obtainable, and i think noone mentioned the incorrect image during the event, so it was never fixed.

Bruh, how didn’t you guys notice it for like, 4 years. Kinda funny to be honest

Well, it’s more that none of them actually care enough. They won’t change it now. And by next time, it’ll be forgotten.

So next time, they’ll just use that old, incorrect promo pic again. Then people will point it out all over again.

It’s kind of a never-ending cycle.

Also, for example, nobody cares that you can put markings on vehicles that symbolize only friendly kills (in context, you can use them).
It was known, forgotten. Then brought up again, known yet again, and forgotten.

That image only appears when the gun is purchasable in the Shop and it’s the second time, first was during the “Armory: New Shipment!” event … so basically that image was only visible for ~1,5 weeks in the past 3 years …

I poked the devs already about it in the morning when i saw Erika’s original message.

I forwarded that bug personally probably 10+ times in the past 4 years … i jokingly call them “teamkill markings” instead of “kill markings”, but i couldn’t get it fixed.

Phase 2 (June 26th - June 28th):
Complete 4 battles.

Phase 3 (June 28th - June 30th):
Complete 6 battles.

Why do we need to scale up the reqirements each stage when those stages are also time gated?

Scaling up the requirements would make sence if everyone had to do the first stage in order to automaticly continue with the next.
If those sections are spread apart by arbitrary timegates then all the reason to scale the task reqirements completely fall apart as someone who returned to playing enlisted during the later stages of the event not only misses out on most of the rewards but also has to do the harder tasks for for the same initial rewards that everyone else achieved a few days ago for less effort.

I don’t understand why they didn’t lower the MP41(r)'s rate of fire to the realistic 900 rounds per minute it’s unclear where they got the current figure of 1240 rounds per minute.

do you got any sources for that or is that just an estimate by yourself?

Do you want me to prove it to you?

In reality, the characteristics of the MP 41 (r) submachine gun differed significantly from those in the game (where they are inflated for the sake of balance): actual rate of fire was approximately 700–750 rounds per minute; the cartridge used was the standard German 9×19mm Parabellum pistol round.

That is exactly what he wants. Pulling numbers out of thin air is something anyone can do

To convert the MP 41 (r), the Germans utilized their standard 9×19mm Parabellum pistol cartridge. This process involved completely replacing the original 7.62mm barrel of the captured Soviet PPSh-41 with a new German 9mm barrel. Additionally, a special adapter insert was installed in the magazine well, allowing for the secure attachment of standard German 32-round box magazines from the MP 40. What was the resulting rate of fire? With 9×19mm German ammunition, the actual rate of fire of the MP 41 (r) dropped to 700–750 rounds per minute.

So this will be the first time I won’t finish a challenge! The only thing Gaijin knows how to do is keep increasing the task requirements! With this pathetic matchmaking, constant uptiers, and desertion, it’s impossible to complete.

I am surprised that they have not even made a fuss so far to give us more weapon orders, since these weapons are so requested by the players and they only give us two, which are not enough to fill a squad.
