Adamn does have a point, there already is a BR II Assault Rifle for Germany, as well as BR II being already quite the crowded enviornment for Germany. The Mkb 35 would also still be better than a downtiered 10 round Mkb 42.
Instead, consider making it a BR III SF-rifle, it’ll give us the benefits of:
Corrected magazine capacity to historical levels. - Yay.
We still get something alltogether new. - A SF-rifle outside of BR V would be very unique.
No other adjustments technicly nessesary, I don’t think it needs a damage increase, it’d have its niche but not be obviously better than other BR III rifles.
Reducing the magazine size and giving the weapon a different role where it will excel will satisfy way more concerns, and ultimately be better for everyone. Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone could walk away happy?
1.The orange blossom sight is hard to use.
2.The Sturmgeschütz III and the Panzerjäger IV need vehicle-mounted machine guns.
3. When will the advanced-weight Japanese engineers repair and manufacture German tank guns?
Im not sure if mkb42 10 would be worth using over VG1-5 (which is actually called Mp507)
Same damage, same function but 10 rounds full-auto vs 30 rounds semi-auto?
By this point, I see this gun as nothing but a cheap filler that should be ignored for the sake everyone.
Just fix its magazine to its HA 10 rounds, fix the magazine of the Scotti to its HA 25-20 rounds and call it a day.
Im sure people would NOT be happy if Allies had 15 round M2 Carbine on BR2 or Japanese a 10 round Type Hei auto on BR3 usable by any soldier.
That shouldnt be an argument since you can take BR2 guns to BR3+ matches and BR should be based on performance, not on crowd, because then older and already overcrowded factions would suffer from that while Japan basically has a golden ticket.
Dunno if BRII is the solution for it though. Maybe add the bayonet.
Thats exacly what just happened.
soviets got Urugan moved with the same update that turned Type 100 early into a similar beast on BR2, meanwhile look at Type 100 late, same gun but 100 more rpm is suddenly BR3? Yeah Type 100 early is clearly undertiered as is.
Meanwhile Axis still can’t have a single SMG with the ideal 600-700 rpm on BR2.
Because they “have too much” while half of the BR2 smgs are almost the same.
