Hey Guys,
From my understanding once an emergency patch is released to fix the availability of the Mk42b and the AVT40 only the assault class will have access to it. However it really begs the question why would anyone bother to use the MP40 when they can use the Mk42B? For the sake of losing 2 bullets you have a gun effective at virtually all ranges you will find in game.
I had been under the impression the number of these super weapons would be greatly limited per side to a Hero class and not to every tom dick and harry assault class member. It just seems a little hard to swallow for someone like me (no means am I a totally dedicated "authenticity" pedant) -but when the number of assault rifles can outnumber the amount of MP40's it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
You may very well say "don't like it don't use the gun then" but that ignores the fact that with the opportunity there to use the "better" gun who isn't going to take it just to stay competitive?
This is honestly one of the most annoying things along with the apparent inability to choose your upgrades (apparently eventually everyone is going to be "forced" in ranked servers to use their dual mag MP40, scoped Mk42b and their scoped G43) and of course lockdown an idea that completely ruins the flow and back and forth of a round.
Anyway I was just wondering will you fellas still be using the MP40 as at least with the PPsh41 it seems you have notable advantages over the Russian automatic rifle.
