Why not give the MKB/AVT to the Elite Rifleman?

You can't compare AVT-40 with Mkb

AVT-40 is just SVT-40 with full auto and with very strong recoil ,which soldiers decided to not use and that's why it was a FAIL
Mkb is total opposite , it had great recoil and it is almost super accurate

And i think Mkb should be limited to squad leaders/commander and not Assault

Moaning, yelling and posting topics in the wrong part of the forum doesn't make you part of the majority.

Just remove all non-bolt action rifles and give the Russians a belt fed PPSH so there can be some peace and quiet! :p

I'd practice a bit more with the AVT if I were you. I've been owning Mkb puppies with it :p I like the AVT way more then the Mkb... Mkb is for pussies. AVT is for men. :cool:

Sow im an Pussie and a Men, because i use both! Then i used the MKB and round after i use the AVT. :rolleyes:

And the MKB should only be limited for the Commander, not some squad leaders or lower ranks!

The only way to do well with an AVT is to set it to semi, in which case you may as well have an SVT.
Hmm this..?
I only found it useful on auto when charging some1 and firing from the hip at 5m, thats the only thing it does better than SVT.
MKB completely outclasses it.

For me its not really the fact that these weapons are a bit more prevalent in game its the choice of classes given them.

In a game like this, where good team work and coordination is the key to a good fight and winning,giving these weapons to the important command classes is like putting up a sign for all the the people who are least interested in team work and just want to kill whore to take the class,especially the commander role which in so many maps is very important to winning.

More often than not we end up with a commander who took the role, not because he has a good grasp of the tactics needed for each map and wants to help his team win..

But because he wants to go Herp Derp with an ak47.....:)

On paper a good idea, but then you get CoD twitch aimers taking important roles just so they get good weapons.
This is actually a very good point. These special weapons should definitely not be tied to the important roles of TL's and SL's. People picking these roles solely to get the better weapons is about the worst thing that can happen to your team.

I don't lie, thank you for that rude statement. If you want information, you can ask nicely. These decisions weren't mine to make. They apparantly changed over time.
It seems like many things changed "over time" (last few months to be precise).

So since it wasn

+1 to "too many MkB / AVT" even when restricted to Assault Class.

I was really looking forward to this game but the reality has been very disappointing....
Though, to be fair, this is a bit too negative. I have been playing the game (10 hours so far according to Steam) and I wouldn't have done that if it wasn't fun. I've had reasonable performance as long as I turn everything down to Medium or Low (on my laptop with i7-720, GTX280M, and 4GB RAM - running at 1920x1080). I've found the SP campaign quite fun so far and I've had only the one crash (off to post the .dmp now).

So overall, well done TWI and if you can fix the few things people like me are upset about at the moment - this will be a strong contender for best-ever.

P.S. Huge props to the art folks who did the campaign movies. Those are awesome - what a great sense of the period - very well done!

Correction, MKB, AVT, SVT, G41, MP40, PPSH, Scoped Monsin/KAR are for pussies.

Bolts are for men :cool:


P.S: Still waiting for "game for men" mutators (= special weapons highly restricted)

+1 game is a Nazi loving teenager's wet dream atm, no offense TWI. But long-term? The teenagers will go to a different weapon porn soon and you might be stuck with us old farts again.

so then is there a reason why WE werent informed?

I understand somethings might be on a need to know basis, but this certainly wasn't it.

Had i known about how prevalent these moronic unlocks were i would likely have held off on my purchase. Many of us were worried about this unlock business, bu you guys reassured us that stuff like this would not be so common, and we took your word for it

You (as in your team) did not allow me and many others, to make an informed decision

Just add some recoil to Mkb and this won't be a problem anymore.

MKB completely outclasses it.

Any time you are at say 50 yards or less it outclasses the semi auto rifles. However the small mag size means you can burn through the best part of a magazine on one kill, in which case semi auto is better :)

That said my preference is still semi auto. I also can't really get the hang of the MKB, I assume it is the ironsights as I do fine with the SVT and subs.
