I've found some flaws in this game about some of the weapons, like the ptrs for example. It's not a sniper rifle it's a gun used to take out tanks. Please if you have other videos of the differences then please share them with us  .

lol yeah, technically it was able to be used as a sniper though because of the scope, just kinda like overkill in my opinion. Kinda just like the Barret .50 caliber in Cod4. Damn that thing was definitely overkill. I mean that thing had a fuc.king bipod!!!

I'm not sure but I think the PTRS used explosive shells because it's called an "anti tank rifle."

yeah those bullets dont look too explosive to me, powerful? yes, explosive? most likely not. The shell would have to be much larger for a real tank damaging explosion to occur. You do know that the bullet was designed to wipe out certain designated spots on the tank not just kill the tank as some might say...
say...communications, or trying to crack the wheels inside the treads so as to immobilize the tank, but never was it possible to simply shoot the tank to death even with a bullet at the size of an astounding 14.5 mms...

oh yeah just remember that it is only the tip of the bullet that gets fired at the tank, not then entire shell, cuz i remember looking at that shell and saying holy sh.it but then i remembered it really wasnt that big

Not sure but they were probably tipped with depleted Uranium. It's what the tanks use now to get through all sorts of armor. Only guns in this game I've used/shot/owned was the 1911 .45, M1 Garand, and M91/Mosin Nagant. I'm a lot more familiar with the firearms used by our modern military uses currently.
If anything, the MP40 fire rate is too slow and the power was way too high. Also, M1's take a lot longer to reload in real life lolz.

Actually, think of the technology at the time. These guns were most likely used against the old school German Panzers which were notorious for having virtually no rear armor and exposed fuel tanks, etc. 14.5mm is plenty to get through that. Even a 50 cal would've done the job.

"The M1 played a major role in America's victory in WWII. It became a key element in the battle tactics of the U.S. military. On the European front, the Germans were relying on heavy machine gun emplacements and fixed defense positions. In order to overcome such positions, the U.S. used a fire and maneuver strategy. The high rate of fire the M1 had, being a semi-automatic rifle, allowed troops to lay down heavy and accurate cover fire on German positions. This made it possible for groups of soldiers to out-maneuver the less-moveable German machine gun emplacements and overtake them"

So does this mean they would waste a bullet on one person? You couldn't just walk around with the PTRS and fire like in CoD.

You would not just walk around like you do in CoD period unless you go nuts.

puffin...have you ever seen a panzer? I watched a documentary on them and it said they could take a few hundred hits from enemy tanks and still function if a full crew was aboard. The old school panzers werent much different.
Also I read that the PTRS was actually only used so as to knock out tank periscopes and other "open" parts of the tank so to blind it as a last resort. The rifles were nowhere near strong enough to actually penetrate the tank...
