T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

I read some documentaies and i saw that those 3 tank have secondary weapon it'a a coaxial MG (since they did'nt have a hull MG). I think adding the MGs is appropriate in against infantries.

Why man ? Adding those MGs doesn't break the balance of the game.

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

As far as I know the IS2 should have a coaxial MG.

T70 doesn't have it and it's not going to have it unless BurroDiablo remember to add it when reworking the soviets models in the future :P.

IS3 has a bugged coaxial MG so we removed it.

Maybe we could add a hull mg but it does little dmg. Like Sherman's ;D. It would look cool and smooth out the concerns for Anti Infantry alittle more :P.

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

As @Mr.Q said, those tanks didn't have hull mgs so the only ones that (hopefully ???) will have in the future will be those coaxial.

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

IS-2 and IS-3 don't need those MGs. For T-70 I see it as a light anti infantry vehicle. It's somewhat dangerous 45mm gun and its fast speed is going to say no to having an MG.

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

Oh lordy lordy its back to haunt us. The troll queen has returned.

Anyway, the reason I said no was because;

A: The Hull MGs are pretty damn much useless and while authenticity is lovely, its not particularly necessary, since they do pretty much no damage.

B:Its a bit of a waste of time when the Devs could be designing all kinds of other things, such as skins, and other important things.

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

when redoing the modells will the JS-3 get its Top mg? and if so how it will perform against armoured cars and infantry?

also wouldnt it be nice to give the soviets a PKP HMG as reward for heavy mortar, it shouldnt suppress like the faster ones but it could deal direct damage but would lack the range the mortar has.
list of things i have modelled so far.

I don't think it will happen.

@nachocheese
Yes, they will get a coupola MG once the models start to be reworked, how it will perform? Well, like any other similar MG :-\... I have never read the stats of those weapons tbh.

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

Im also working on trying to get coax mg's on the tanks that dont have them

T70
IS3
KV1
KV85


and yes as blackbishop mentioned earlier, soviet tanks like the IS2, IS3, and ISU152 will get cupola mgs when possible

Re: T-70, IS-2 and IS-3 secondary weapon

T70 is like the M8, in my opinion. Except it might have a better gun, is an actual tank and stuff. Isn't T70 good as is? It's fast, and is my favorite counter to Stug IVs. KV 1 (not sure about KV-85 cause I never use it) can kill infantry quite well without an mg.
