Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I asked this in the Q&A but nobody responded, so Im just making a post about it--the question I have is, Is there a scoped FG-42 in FH. And if there is, where is it (what map etc.).

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

took me a lot of time to find it and i failed - i dont have any kind of editor to force-check it, but i regret to say that i dont think so... unfortunatelly, because it could be much more lethal with a scope [as if it wasnt the best rifle in game]

any confirmation?

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I found it. Sometimes its there and sometimes its not, I think it depends on the server. But its great to use.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

How's that possible? Sorry, I know nothing about servers...

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

OK so it is done then. What map was it on that you found it? Or was this a case where it was a sever modified map, and they placed the kits themselves.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Yes what map is it on, i can't be arsed to look through all the ObjectSpawnTemplates.con files.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I think AZson doesn't want to tell you ;) .

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

You can probably start by looking at maps after 1941 with Germany involved.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Well that narrows it down!

There's only 4 pre 1941 maps with Germans involved: Fall Weiss, Eastern Blitz, Battle of France, Battle of Britain.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Crete also, as the FG42 was designed because of the problems of Crete.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I must've submitted the post before i was finished.

Okay then is it on a multi-player only map?

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

meh, the question was 'where is it' if it existed and you knew. The question was for the people who know and would be willing to say. Otherwise don't bother.

Its easy for me, or anyone to say things like "Oh its great weapon to use! very hard to find though. I recomend to keep looking for it!"

And no were not on easy street, only the regular FG42 is listed as a kit in the rfa, unlike the scoped stg which is listed as 'stg-ZF' and as a kit as 'sniperSG44'. As a result if it is indeed in the game as far as I have been able to find, its kit name is hidden. So if is on map, its impossible to find in the rfa unless you know the hidden name or stumble on it.

Until its actually found, the kit name cannot be determined either. Since I have not located it, that is why I am now asking if anyone else has.

So until AZson or whoever actually wants to say just exactly where it is, and I actually find it, their information is utterly FOS to me. If you don't want to say, or don't know, don't f-ing patronize me with this 'look for it on map with germany'- because its already beyond that.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I havnt seen it i'll keep my eyes peeled so when i find it i wont tell you :P JJ i'll be nice unlike Azson :/

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

oh ty larry. sry to be so harsh beofre its just that its a very difficult thing to find short of a dev just telling us, and I only made this after looking for it- so its frustrating getting the usual response's.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Did the devs even put a scoped version in? I don't recall ever hearing about it.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Maybe it it's randomized between normal FG42 (which I've seen) and scoped FG42, which explains the "sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not" comment someone said above...

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

well thats what I didn't know. I could not find it in the rfa's, but I thought maybe they may had hidden it. So thats why I ended up just asking, to see if they(devs) would just say directly if it was done or if somone had stumbled on it.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

We all know the devs dont mention much of anything around here so like they would answer i suspect its not there thou i havnt heard anything about it.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I never even knew that there was one.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

afiaik, there isnt one.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

*waiting for Azson reply, patiently waiting, what a thrill*

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

You guys are way to up-tight. I'm just making ya sweat I'll tell ya. Its in Omaha Beach Charlie Sector near the rear axis respond point. When you are facing twords the beach theres a house on the right, it may be F2. I know theres a barn farther down on that side. Like I said sometimes it's there and sometimes it's not, but if its there it's usualy sitting on top the table in the house, just to your left as you come in the door. Its great for sniping on the beach. First time I found it the allied had take the secound respond point but coulding get any farther. I was picking them off theft and right while hiding in a bush. They couldn't find me but I could find them.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I love the Fg42 :D

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

There is a ScopedStG44 there, not FG42.... those are completely different things

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Hmmm,

I once found a scoped 'something or other' by one of the right hand flags on Forgotten Hope's Berlin map.

The thing is that I don't know the names of many guns. I thought I'd mention it anyway as it struck me as a weapon with a very 'modern' feel. Whatever it was it was some sort of automatic assault rifle.

I found the gun while in a single player game, maybe load it up yourself and see if it's what you're after. Obviously the flags would need to be under axis control.

The scoped StG44 on Charlie Sector isn't much of a secret anymore.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Ok, here's one maybe somebody can answer: how many maps does the regular FG42 appear on (I found one by accident)

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I have never seen it, ever. I think the Devs thought about putting it in 0.61 but the FG42 is so deadly, there really isnt much point in putting a scope on. The gun has no recoil, has two firing modes, uses a decent sized round and has a medium sized clip.

Even though I dont think it's needed, I'd still love to see it in. Call of Duty's scoped FG42 is awesome. Hell, so is Day of Defeat's.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

There are 2 FG42s on Berlin. Also on Berlin, there are 3 ScopedStG44s. I am sure i've seen FG42 on some other map, but i can't remember where

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

I now there are two FG-42's on Sector 318, and I think there is one on Prokhorovka.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Orel roofs, sector 318 on the ground in axis main, breakthrough near ju52

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Oooops sorry my mistake

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

there's a pic here-

Well as mccibbs said, there proabably is none. Maybe for next relase though? :naughty: Hmm just have to kitbash a scope onto the current rifle.

AZson, meh no problem that sounds like the scoped stg there, though I will certainly check that out too.


ANother idea for a kit bash, is a k98 not with a sniper scop but with smaller 1.5x scope.

Quote:

(Gewehr -Zielfernrohr 41/1 mit Kasten) The 1.5 power magnification ZF41 sharpshooters scope was designed for use with the K98 carbine, and was first issued in quantities in 1941. In 1942 it was ordered that six percent of all K98 carbines manufactured be equipped with the ZF41 mounting base, and issued with the scope and carrying case. The first issues of the scope were designated "ZF41", while later issues were designated "ZF41/1". 1.5 power, blued, tooled steel and sheet metal construction, scope with milled range elevation adjustment dial and side rail bridge mount. Range adjustment dial varies from 100 to 800 metres. Windage adjustment is set internally. Scope is roughly 5 1/4" long with a 1/2" diameter at ocular lense and a 7/8" diameter at objective lense. Scope retains about 90% of its original bluing with some minimal light surface spotting. Optics are still clean and clear and have the typical single vertical and dual horizontal side bar reticle pattern sights.

Hi,

The "something or other" I described on Berlin was of course a Scoped StG44.

I did find the non scoped FG-42, hell of a gun.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

FG42 is a lot more rare in .66. There's some on Berlin, Sector 318, and I believe on Bocage. The scoped STG is a lot more common now.

Re: Is there a scoped FG-42, and if so where
 

Man, I know another map, and its damnly easy to get, Operation Blackknight, The first house left of Allied bridge. THERE I REVEALED YOU A SECRET!!!
