About the MKB42
- Thread starter tauris
- Start date
It's not too far away from the truth if you consider there's potentially 8x trollkarbines per each team and people are more than eager to loot that weapon from the ground.
It already does.
Most people i know play on Realism servers and dont play on normal and vise versa.
Some players just dont like the differences and will only play the mode they enjoy. SO why not make it more enjoyable for both sides?
Its a win - win solution.
So...
MG-34 can fire singles, has extra barrel and is easy to control on auto, plus it has a dual mag upgrade, DP-28 doesnt have any of those.
Mkb rapes, just about everything while AVT will empty your clip on one guy and is impractical as the full auto garand.
Historical PPSH is supposed to own MP40, but both get 60+ round mags and MP40 can snipe 150m like a baws.
Why did I type all this obvious shiz? Cuz me thinks Mp40/II has to go for the sake of asymmetrical balance, sanity and TWI's dignity. Germans have enough badass weapons as it is.
BTW why do engineers get friggin MKB's?!?!?!

At the moment the game is completly in german favour. I really hope the Devs arent german biased....because currently, the game feels like it
This gun totally ROCKS!
The people moaning about it are probably just the cheapskates who didn't want to buy the DDE and are annoyed that the real fans got a decent weapon without level grinding.
You should thank TWI for making the game more accessible to the mainstream putting a gun like this in game.
I'm a little under enthused with the AVT though, which could do with a reduction in recoil, but for the most part both the guns are great.
3 out of 20 people like this post, nuff said.
16 axis players, 8 MKB42s. Noone can deny there are too many of them. Well you can, but if you do you are stupid as heck and should not be allowed to talk.
You guys do know that if you level up high enough you can use a MKb42 as a Russian right? Or you can always pick one up from the ground if youre really that desperate to taste its powah

Lets just throw all sanity out of the window and give the soviets this.

That would take care of balance issue but throw the game's immersion out the window for some players
Doesn't matter. No more than 1-2 should be available period in a 64 person match. It's an absurd weapon to put in since it was basically a prototype and if it was used in Stalingrad it would have been in miniscule numbers if at all. But hey, let's throw authenticity to the wind and include phasers, lightsabers, and M-16s? We were told rare..and rare it ain't.
Dont servers have a realistic loadout checkbox?
There could be lasers for all I care for as long as realism elements can be set server side.
Leaving it up to those running the server what realism level to run.
Lasers on sharks. I could enjoy a volga map like that. If I did not have to play it all the time.

I agree that it is a little crazy at the moment. Just recently I was on spartanovka with the mkb and it turned into a shooting gallery. I shot about 4 people in the space of about 6 seconds and all of them were in different locations. All of them dead. I admit, it is a guilty pleasure to use the mkb, but I can stop whenever I want. I think.
I remember how after release of every set of screenshots (MKB being on almost every one of them), TWI was reassuring the crowd that MKB is really rare, and you'll hardly see it in game.
Then, the game came out...
