I've used all the weapons extensively and it's the one with which I have the greatest accuracy that I now go for (G41).

If I'd been in Stalingrad I'd have dumped the bolt-action and picked up a Push-Push or MP40 so fast the ammo would have cooked off.

Good luck to those who love their bolts though, and do well with them, leaves more semis and autos for those of us who don't have ADD. :D

Press 6 to use ironsights

I am using ironsights. But when you used it, you can aim well, becouse optics is blocking your view. And about "overpowered" MKB42, this weapon was ovepowered. MKB42 or MP44 or STG44 is grandfather of all assault rifles :-D

I sporadically use the MKB (I use the G41 more often) .. So I may have had enough kills in total to get it up to level 3. Maybe 4.

Because the stats are broken, I'm level 50 with the MKB. The scope is just awful and if you switch to ironsights you can't see anything because there's a massive useless scope in the way.

It's stupid that the upgrade is actually a downgrade, and you can't do anything about it. I guess I'll just stick with the G41 again.

If realistic implementation would be important to you, you'd have shat bricks about the overexaggerated PPSh-recoil. Instead, you let the Mkb slip because it's a positive influence on your K/D-ratio. STFU.

No he wouldn't, the PPSh's recoil ingame is nothing compared to that of the MKb42 ingame. And contrary to the MKb42's ingame recoil, which is a tad too high compared to the real thing, the PPSh's recoil is actually quite fine.

Get the PPSh to lvl 30+ in game, and you've got a rapid fire laser in your hands.

The thing should not have a scope or a bayo by default.

Scope should be for Sharpshooters, bayo should not be attached until the operator fixes it to his rifle.

I'm baffled as to why the G41 with the 41 scope is issued to Marksman class at all. It was a system that was issued primarily to commanders and squad leaders as a way to spot whats going on around the battlefield. As for the MKb with it.........what moron put the MKb in the game in the first place let alone attaching an optic to it. just get rid of this whole system... Its blatantly copying MW or BC and for an RO game it just doesn't work well enough.

The tiny mkb (and G41) scope is just in the way 95% of the time, I would really like to have an option not to equip it. The "upgrade" gives it a completely different role because it's much harder to use at close range.

PS this has nothing to do with weapon balance, so if you believe the mkb is overused or overpowered please post in a different thread.

The Mkb scope has only ever served me well on big maps like Pavlol's and Fallenfighters (FF I pulled off a 217 meter headshot, Pavlovs 247 meter heartshot)

Every other map though, it is completely in the way, all it does is block the upper half of your screen and make your gun look cool.

The tiny German scope on the G41 and MKB is a peice of junk. It blocks my view and I hate it. Rather hip fire than use it.

I think it is great that you cannot detach the scope as it makes the weapon pretty much useless. The question remains why is this called upgrade and not downgrade? Should limit the MkB's long term though ;) once everyone has a scope on it!

Seriously that needs fixing and limit MkB's
