Fūrinkazan Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Hi guys Even if i watch the forum every week, i don't find the need to post. I play all the games since the first CMBO and i still like it after all those years. Today i just found a channel on youtube that can be interesting especially for new players. It's called G.I. History Handbook https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFwP2RKKNYv7o8DJwYO9KxA there are only 3 videos but i think they are very well made. I don't know if that was allready mentioned on the forum but i think it was great to share the link. There is another reason why i decided to talk about those videos. On the video about infantry tactics there is an indication of the practical range of BAR automatic rifles. With the last uppdate of the game, BAR and Bren have been limited to less than 200 m in automatic fire. I know that this was allready mentionned on another thread but i don't know if Battlefront answered to it, if it's a bug or not. I think this totally cripples allied infantry. German squads can use lmgs at 600 m or more and have an unrealistic advantage i think. On the vidéo, it is indicated that lmg can be used on groups of men from 500 to 1 000 yards, 400 to 900 m. Rifles are used at about 400 m . In the vidéo it's at minute 10 and after. I guess that for the Bren, it was more or less the same. I don't think that at long distance, those weapons shoot only single shot, especially at groups of men. I just hope that this can be changed in futur patch. I hope that people will enjoy the link and that the maker of the video will keep is very good job. I wish there was something like this for other nations. best regards Furinkazan 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
