replace taliban's lee en field

[RHYS4190]

This is some things iv noticed ingame,

I think it gotten to the stage that the le Enfield needs to be replaced, Iv been playing this game a while and i formed a opinion on just about all the weapons, But by far the worst weapon in game, is the iron sight lee Enfield.

this weapon is so bad, that it pretty much suicide for any one who even attempts to use it against blue force. But that not the real problem the problem is that it issued to the medic's
And this is having bad effects on game play. iv noticed that when playing the taliban no one really wants to use it, So no one is going medic.

What im suggesting is replace it with some thing people are comfortable using. ether a SKS, or better yet a Ak-74 or a AK-47

By doing this im very sure it will incourage people to uses the kit more, and will be better for gameplay.

wut? The Lee Enfield is just awesomesauce, extremely good for picking off targets at range.

That's always a problem with medics. If they don't have an über gun no one will be medic. Just like the civi kit (or collaborator, for those who want an excuse for killing them) I'm also having trouble using the Enfield but I'll still go medic. The ability to heal compensates for his gun imo.

No not really. have you noticed how much damage it actually does, It take 2 shot's in torso to kill some one, and for a bolt action rifle do you really think that works

Well, don't know many people alive with 2 Lee Enfiled shots in torso.
It should be more powerful ingame then!!! I agree about that, it's a powerful rifle...

About the fact that Insurgents or Talibans use this kind of weapon:









PS: See how many German weapons have been found! I would have prefered K.98 than Lee Enfield xD First because many K.98 were produced in Eastern countries or Arab countries (or/and sold to them at the end of WW2) and secondly, because I love this rifle. But the Lee Enfield is ok as well, since Afghan and Irak are both old English protectorates (or something similar) You can see Lee Enfield in the 4th and last pics.
Reall interesting article about the Enfield and the Mauser used by Insurgents!

As seen on 162eRI's pics, will the Taliban in PR get more WW2 weapons in the future? Been wanting to suggest that for a while as there's alot of those weapons going around down there. A Garand would be sweet. Even an MG42 as seen on 1 of the pics.

yes, give the medic a m1 Garand in stead... love that thing

I agree with a replacement, either that or it needs to kill in one hit, FH2 style.

Firing at a target from a distance is difficult due to deviation, iron sights (and their general suckiness above 50m) and opponents having scoped weaponry. The other taliban weaponry has semi-auto fire so you can follow up shots quickly if you miss. With the enfield, you can't afford to miss, you fire and the enemy knows where you are instantly. Even if you hit, you need to place another shot on the same guy before he manages to shoot you or run into cover for a medic.

Having a bad weapon for a medic doesn't sound too bad in theory as it is their job to heal a squad and keep them fighting. The most important thing wrong with the taliban medic is it's inablity to defend himself. Nearly every single time I have attempted to wait in cover for the enemy to appear for a clean shot, the enemy turns and shoots me before I can get a second shot off accurately. Either that or they've already scoped up on me when I'm aiming at them. Here's what happened when 1 TIME I got a kill on someone approaching me:
"HEY GUYS, JESUS CHRIST, I GOT A KILL WITH THE ENFIELD! I ACTUALLY HAVE A KILL, 1-11 FUCK YEAH"

My suggestion for a replacement is the humble SKS, less desirable than an AK while still sucking enough for a medic. With the SKS, kills are a little more difficult than with an AK but still easy to get if you ambush opponents or wait in defence.

Good luck finding the art assets or kindly asking FH2 or BGF for them..

It could be the more modern MG3, would be much easier to get ammo for and its currently used by some middle eastern countries.



And personally i love the enfield and have no problems getting kills with it, ya just gotta remember its not an AK
