MKB/AVT Availability Change Incoming

What about the fact that these weapons are available to all, not just the owners of DDE? Will you fix it?

They probably won't.

BTW there are still going to be more Mkb's than mp40's, weeeeeee.. and Russians dont get day1 drum to counter this madness (AVT sux).

And the PPSH is still useless due to overdone recoil.

Sorry Tripwire, but this fixes nothing. The Germans still have a large number of a MASSIVELY overpowered gun and the Russians are still defenseless.

"Just for assault" is still way too many. That's like what 5-6 per team? Still way too many.

Not to mention you might as well just remove the MP40 from the game entirely. Who would pick it over a MKB42? I mean seriously.

Like others have asked, what happened to only one or two "heroes" having these weapons?

Excellent news, and this is exactly the kind of immediate fix that TWI is known for. *thumbs up*

However, now that we've seen how horrific that weapon is Assault Squad availability is still far too many to be on the field at any one time (not including pick-ups); the MKB at least doubles the number of people in that squad in effective game terms if they can all have it. If it were my vote it wouldn't exist because it's a weapon out of its time, but if it really must stay then it has to be limited to 1 or 2.

6 Mk42bs on the team, meaning 6 recoverable. 12/64 players with Mk42b is completely possible and indeed likely.

Without blinking an eye, nearly 40% of the Germans can have experimental assault rifles.

Yeah. This patch really doesn't fix anything.

Do you actually play your own game Tripwire? Do you not see how overpowered this weapon is? Do you see how many class slots it needs to be reduced?

Should be server option to limit this to 1 per side (or none even) while remaining ranked, etc. so those of us who want "rare" to actually mean that. This should apply really to all weapons so servers can setup what weapons are available for each game. Offering less weapons in a server shouldn't cause them to be unranked - it's just a game mode that many people here want to play.
