    Historical Fact: Re-chambered to fire the NATO 7.62-millimeter cartridge, the MG-42 continued to serve in the post-war West German Bundeswehr, with the Germans eventually re-designating the weapon the 'MG-3' in the 1960s.

    It's just a shame that the MG42 is relegated to a prone corner camper weapon now. In Bad Company 2, in its MG3 form, it was absolute blast to use but wasn't even close to being overpowered. I really miss the way Dice used to balance MGs.

    • @lejenddairy
      @lejenddairy 4 года назад +40

      You can’t use MMGs successfully if you’re camping. You have to be defending a objective or choke point or pushing an objective to be successful with them. They’re great on modes like breakthrough and rush, but terrible on modes like conquest.
      That being said I’d rather have MMG gunners on my team rather then snipers literally sitting back at spawn getting like 1 kill every 4 minutes, while someone who uses an MMG “properly” halts a push or chews through people holding a flag.
      I’d recommend giving the MMGs a try on breakthrough and using them strategically, rather then going prone in random areas. I dreaded the change to MGs when this game came out but once I learned how to use them effectively and make them useful, I appreciated them.

      Well to be honest the actual MG42 weighs about 26 pounds unloaded. Meaning it's essentially "a prone corner camper weapon" by default. Although in-game you're able to flawlessly pole vault over ledges, while carrying 50-60 pounds of gear. lol
      What also helped the older games was that they were slower and jerkier, with lower resolution and bandwidth speed. That in itself kind of balanced out the game play a bit. In addition to hit-scan ballistics and the less obsessive player base. There was binge players then, although not in the numbers we see today, 10 years after Bad Company 2 released.

    • @lejenddairy
      @lejenddairy 4 года назад +11

      Kevin Smithwick imo the term camper in regards to Battlefield only applies to someone who isn’t playing the objective and is sitting in one spot. If you are playing the objective, you aren’t camping. That’s just my opinion. I think the MMGs are fine where they are. If someone knows how to use them they are going to reek havoc. If someone decides to sit in the middle of no where, not even close to the objective, they are going to suffer poorly.

      @@Duke-3508 Where are you getting figures from? The 75 round saddle drum is from the MG34 and the 300 round belt you mentioned didn't exist. MG42s were issued 50 round drums in the infantry role and 250 round belts when mounted on the Lafette 42 tripod. Also the 1,500 RPM figure comes MG42s, when configured in an AA role. That requires using a light-weight bolt, which is more prone to cracking.

    The mg42s newer counterpart is the mg3 witch has a slower fire rate but being lighter you can aim down its sights and move around easier. The mg3 also has improved cooling a Chrome lined barrel as well as a better bipod. It also fires a smaller bullet witch makes it lighter and a more accurate machine gun. The mg3 also can attach a belt magazine for increased capacity. The mg3 also has a quick change barrel if it does over heat.

    • @lejenddairy
      @lejenddairy 4 года назад +4

      I’ve mastered all of the MMGs and they all have their roles, but the M1922 takes the cake for the best MMG. It has one of the best time to kills and has some of the lowest recoil. The MG42 excels in closer ranges and the M1919a6 is the best ranged MMG. VGO is a middle ground between the MG34 and 42. And the S2-200 would be the best MMG in the game had it have a higher ammo capacity rather then being limited to a 30 round magazine. The MG34 is probably the most bland out of all the MMGs from my experience but is still a great gun to use regardless.

    Fun fact: if i remember correctly, the reason the mg 34 and 42 have the charging handle pulled first instead of last in some other games. is that in real life, pulling the charging handle first, resets the recoil spring, and re-alines the "Ammo track" with the bolt where the gun can be fed ammuntion properly.

    The reason the Germans still produced the more pricey Mg34, the barrel change. The mg42 requires access to the side of the action to change barrels, which is good enough for foot soliders but doesnt work for tanks, mg34 barrel change was better suited for tanks.

  • @bennettthorne635
    @bennettthorne635 4 года назад +3

    The mg42 wasn't used by tank groups because of its unique barrel switching method making it impossible to use inside a tank... This is why mg34s were used instead because of its also unique barrel exchanging method.

    The way they balance the game is kind of stupid.Fun fact:Mg 34 and Mg42 many uses were also used as anti aircraft weapons,one of the reasons it got such a high fire rate,and obviously being good at horrifying things

    yo, i never played this game but why is the fire rate of the mg 42 so low? edit: if you look footage up from a unmodified original ww2 gun its fire rate is 1400-1500 rounds per minute which is way scarier than what is represented in the game

    • @neoniiden7644
      @neoniiden7644 4 года назад

      Because it would be extremely over powered.

    They should have had the starting fire rate at 1200 and the upgrade should have taken it down. That's what the actual German military did during the war.

    The ultimate guide for the MG-42: Play an LMG. Because this dumb MMG mechanic DICE thought was going to work on their arcade and fast-paced game is only good on games like Hell Let Loose or Post-Scriptum...

      Yes, you can equip it on all platforms.

      Recoil buffer is one of the gun specializations... you level up the gun and some specializations start unlocking.

      Battlefield was never meant to be realistic from the start it was meant to be an all out war where you drive vehicles, planes and play as soldiers in a big map with distructions and guns that are available in the era the game is set in and those who complain battlefield 1, 5 unrealistic are history nerds who thinks all world war games should be 999% realistic
