I think lightning's idea is good :P Like in FH1, Rifleman would get the G43, Maybe even put a large limit on it so not 'everyone' could have it? :P Then again why restrict the basic class. Then STG can be like pick up commando kits/Mg34s you have currently If thats the case, then support will be the Mg34/42 still. Maybe on certain maps you could make it the Stg, limited but still a decent amount :P

Blueprints? MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Its exciting to see if I can this time hit something with G43 as in FH1 I just missed all the time with that damn gun. Always preferred the Kar over it but the sniper variant of G43 was and is awesome. =E

When i'd play the late war maps in SP as Americans i'd always swap my Garand for a G43 if i could get my hands on one, that said when playing as Germans vs Brits/Canadians i'd always swap my K98k/G43 for a No.4 as soon as the first opportunity arose.

Well the STG can't be support, it would have to be assault, as they say in German sturmtruppen, for the sturmgewehr. It would of course be limited, on most maps. But I've heard entire divisions have been armed with them late war, but I believe thats out of Normandy's scope.

I don't think there's much need to limit the G43. There were produced 400,000 during the war afterall. I think they should consider balance here. When fighting the Americans, I would like to see them get some more G43s, and when fighting British make most have k98s. This is possible with FH2's genious kit limiting system, which is better then most games (DoD) where you can keep the sniper or MG all game if you want.

May some dev tell us how the Fw 190 handles compared to the 109 Me.

Does it have a smaller turningradius as the Me like in, i believe, 0.5 (planes back in those days flow more like airshowplanes: total unrealistic but very funny and handy to fly) or like the last Fw´s in Breakthrough and Bombing the Reich. I would prever turn & burn over zoom and boom but.. well, dare to tell us anyone

[spitfire05]

fw is more zoom and boom I wonder if this will work in bf2...

[[FtN|GT] Die Happy]

th FW will be in first Normandy so it it not in any internal beta (we testers have access to). so we cant say anything about the handling of the new plane or any other Normandy related stuff like Panther, Stug etc.
