    Re: STG-44, best weapon by far?

    You definitely could deploy it in previous patches... all I used to do when I first started playing :p


    Why did they remove it>?

      Anyway, I tested the FG42 with and without the bipod and it didn't make any difference. I thought it may have been a passive buff since you can't deploy it. There was no change at all so it really doesn't matter whether you use it or not.
      No, for the FG42 it doesnt matter that much. You used to be able to deploy it on certain platforms or prone on the floor. Now you can equip it, but it doesnt do anything. I think people still add it to weapons, but now its useless.

        Some type of exploit in console that could crash a server or something in PC. I dont think anyone figured it out on PC, but since it could be done, they took it out.

            I still havent got the game but I heard that they were disabled because on the console versions they found that there was an exploit for infinite ammo.

              I remember on an earlier patch, you could use, for example, a browning with a bipod. When you would mount it, you could use the entire ammo supply without having to take off the bipod and reloading like in the newest patches. That might be what you have heard.

                  It is. Thats why I mention the bandolier and sleigh of hand. Controlled bursts you can kill MAYBE two people in regular mode with it. Then you HAVE TO reload or you will make the next guy just mad at you

                    I don't like to play SC but if I do, the FG42 seems useless to me. Even with bandolier you'll be forced to steal guns way earlier than if you were using any other gun.

                    In HC, I don't really use it much either because I use guns that can be an all-around gun for me. (Such as a full-auto that I can easily single shot from long distances and also save my life when running around a corner into a group of enemies) The FG42 has too much sway for me to burst fire someone from afar. It reminds me alot of ACOG's from CoD4 .

                      It sounds like you want a gun in the game that doesn't exist. All the guns in the game have advantages and disadvantages, none of them are the best for all situations.

                      Simple answer to the sway problem. Don't use the useless annoying telescopic sight.

                        Well it's how I can use some guns to make it to those specifications such as I can easily do that with most of the SMG's. (that's probably why so many people use SMG's)

                        There is actually a gun like I said, the STG. The STG is for sure the cheapest gun in the game, if any. It's like the skorpion from CoD4 but with (I think) more ammo and slower fire rate. They can both full auto from very long distances without any problem.

                        I NEVER use the telescopic sights, the iron sights sway also.

                          You guys know the bipods aren't disabled, right?
                          Have you even tried to use one?
                          You just can't deploy a bipod while prone, but you can still mount to all kinds of surfaces.
                          Last night I mounted the MG42 on a window to defend my flag in CTF. Worked just like it should.

                            The telescopic sights help me out alot when it comes to the SVT. Gewehr and the STG-44.

                              I did not know that. A long time ago when they first disabled them I mentioned that they still worked, but everyone told me I was crazy. I tried it in a few spots, but it did not work, so I thought I was wrong.

                              I guess I was right

                              I cant use those sites. They mess me up every time for some reason. I guess they need some getting used to.

                                huh are bipods something you have to deploy? i thought it was passive and it was always attached to the MGs.
