Because I hate the current state of fg42 with passion 
They should have kept the Vanguard class have em bee max 3 guys with FG 42 I then make FG42 II a sperate unlock for emand do the same with the Russians with the AVT and give both guns 60 rounds as stock and do not introduce a Vanguard II and II class

Seems like recent posts are going off topic.
The thing is:
It’s not about some particular weapons.
It’s about whole faction’s ability to fight, to win. from its players, weapons to maps, tickets.
Players keep playing Soviet because it’s not get nerfed hard enough. Only some real hard changes will shift players attitude towards these two factions.
i like using it but have it in the flame thrower and sniper squads to not waste my assaulter squads
ok then reward them for switching like maybe 100% boosters for that side only, or maybe reward them with a free german gold order weapon instead of nerfing the entire soviet faction

I have no idea why they removed the Guardsman class, that would have prevented the spam of the selectfire and assualt rifles, removing it was the worst decision DF has made.

Talking about German gold weapon orders. Don’t know how anyone can constantly complain about the soviets being OP on berlin when the Germans get these

Again, your anecdotal evidence doesn’t mean shit. If the balance is out of whack, then Darkflow can balance it. Berlin Axis can do just fine. If there’s any issue, it’s a playerbase issue, not a balance issue.

wait guardsman class ? what is that i have not heard of this ? perhaps they could limit the amount of select fire rifles and assualt rifles you can have per squad

because there is no STG44. No Stg44 = nobody wants to eat shit(facing motar,artillery, ppsh, rmn and infinite T-34 to run into objectives because nobody builds an rally) to play berlin. Even more, The terrain in Berlin is extremely unsuitable for the defending side to use tanks. Planes, after the bomb nerf have become nearly meaningless. No one, at least no top-level player, want to STAY in a place where there is no fun using vehicles and planes, let alone in terms of infantry combat u must face ppsh and explosive spamer. All these problems come from the fact that Berlin cannot keep top-level axis players stayed, and ppl would leave the faction without top-level players. I would rather spend 6 hours in Normandy than spend 16 mintues in Berlin. Berlin fuck offfffffffffffffffffffffff
The only thing that I’m looking forward in Berlin is AS44 and RD44, espicially RD44, would be the most powerful weapon in the whole game from my opinion.

Would they? Take Moscow for example. They gave Moscow Allies avs-36 and T-50(can also be obtained by GOLDEN ORDER, making it extremely popular), both superior to its german counter. Then zh-29 get nerfed, making it no more powerful than a Kar98k when facing PPsh. Then, they add T-28e in this BP season, which can one-shot almost every german tank, with Panzer IV f1 without HEAT.
Due to my perosnal gaming experience Moscow is on the way of becoming the next Berlin. AVT-40 nerf is not a bad thing I believe, it just preparing to land in Moscow, with Zh29(large magazine) as its counter. Im pretty sure the gap between Axis and Allies in Moscow would be even larger, with more potential Soviet weapons and vehicles being introduced, like AVT40, T-34, KV1, Fedorov.

Moscow is fine, I just grinded up Axis side with a 80%+ winrate. MG13 is amazing and easily beats out both Soviet LMG’s, and the MG34 is even better. MP40 is great, ZH is good and that nerf definitely puts the AVS in a weird place, but full auto AVS sucks anyway so whatever. MKB 42 is also insane. T50 is a sore spot but I definitely wouldn’t say it’s simply superior, the PZ4 and PZ 3 J both do well against it.
and yes, they would balance it. Back in CBT, Moscow was a shit hole for the Soviets. They nerfed Germany across the board.

Took a while to find, but here is the Guardsman class in the Alpha of Berlin:
The FG-42 and the FG-42 II were Gunner weapons.

I would assume it will come in the next major update along with the StG-44 in Berlin.
thb i belive we will see gunner 3 with something for germany and RD44 (another alpha weapon) first . we probably will see stg’s after the next major update.
my wild guess here looking at the campaign tree
Your lack of rifle kills is disturbing.
I recommend taking the Label Squad out, 3 times a day until this egregious error is fixed.
On a serious note I agree. I dont personally play allies on Moscow or Berlin. But going up against them for 670 something matches, I feel perfectly capable of holding my own in a firefight.
The only real thing a bit out of places for me, and nothing can be done about it, is the PZ4. It is not comparable IMO to the late war T34-85, and gets punished for that.
It would have been better to have something else in lieu of that to start with.
That being said, everything else has its role in Berlin, and I find it very well balanced and fair.

Pak38 is perfect as well against the T50. I’ve done it many times now on Moscow when they camp Quarry and Beloe Lake.
Only downside is getting the damn thing built because of how sensitive AT guns are to placement (that is my only complaint on what needs fixing).

Yeah ^^ Worse part is when you place it just an mm facing up from the ground or something then realize you cant turn it down to aim prop at the target and misses it by a hair and you have to redo it over again xD Learned a bit now what not to do but in the beginning i was pulling hair couple of times especially having an tank nearby aiming at me any second. Better safe and tip it little down then sorry is my motto now
