MG42 is beautiful
MG42 is beautiful
I liked MG42 in this beta version.
But I think it still needs some work before it can be added into the actual game.
+ Design is accurate
+ Awesome rate of fire
+ Sound is just perfect and sexy
+ Iron sights are simple and won't cover much of your sight
+ Barrel change is realistic (heats alot faster than 34)
+ Its not so accurate as Mg34 and so on its effectiviness is based on shock effect. This weapon makes the opposite hit the deck and stay low.
In my opinion there was only one very very big downside that needs to be fixed:
- Recoil is way too low when firing from hip. This gives a way too big opportunity for MG-rambos. It should be almost impossible to fire this gun from the hip.

Also it seems it has an ammunition advance over the MG34 (Standart) which is surprising. I always thought the MG34 could sustain fire longer due to slower rate of fire and superior magazine sizes. Havent done any real resting though^^

Opinion only, IRL it doesn't. The MG42's recoil booster is a very effective muzzle brake.
If you don't believe me, watch this youtube from 1:07 on (yes that is real 7.92 x 57mm ammo):

PLEASE DO NOT NERF THE MG42!!!
It's beautiful the way it really is and currently works in the beta. The only critique I would have is it has a very different report from the behind and side than it does in front. This might be too difficult to implement, and the current sound byte rocks

I'd be in favor of the aforementioned function of hitting right-mouse to ready the gun before point-firing, simply because I doubt most machinegunners carried their MG's at the ready all the time and I like this solution more than giving MG's exaggerated recoil.
Ahh shoot that was off-topic. I forgot which thread this was.

Yea, who would do that in a combat situation?
OT: Looking forward to the in-tank animations. I got black screens saying "moving position".

My opinion, the video also shows, how unhandy the MG42 is. In game, your character moves with it like with the shorter MP40...

Same problem with the mg34 since the closed beta. Take a look on how Ro Ost handled the mg, just perfect. In Ro2 mgs were used as a super heavy
Yeah fair enough about its IRL characteristics, but from a game balance standpoint I personally think it should kick more than it does.Opinion only, IRL it doesn't. The MG42's recoil booster is a very effective muzzle brake.

It already kicks more than it should, and I think more than the MG34 too.
The only thing it needs (and all MGs need) is to have less effective hipfire. Not in the form of stupid extra recoil which didn't exist (see the Sturmfeuer video) but through the form of movement speed and/or agility. None of that extremely easy handling in close quarters, make it so you have to click your mouse an extra time if you want to shoot it from the hip.
There will not be in tank animations. This is a new system put in place to make tank creation easier.
Yes, and you said that moving inside T-70 is pretty much hard, since it is a small tank to move in. And animations would be hard to create because of that.
I think it's a good compromise for all the people who found the tank interior (with animations) to complex and those who welcomed it.
Good job!
