― Heroes & Generals |
Gameplay
With a Rate of Fire of 550, similar to the Maschinenpistole 40, Close Quarters Combat, and 6 Equipment Points. The PPS-43 excels between Close Quarters Combat to Medium Range Combat. Usually runs with either RGD-33 or RPG-43 and a First Aid Kit or Medic Pouch, it's primary purpose is to clear rooms full of enemies or hunting down APCs or Tanks or being a Soviet Medic to help those that needs to be treated within a battlefield. Though it is not to be used for Long Range Combat as it could be outclassed from the Semi-Automatic Rifles, Bolt Action Rifles, and Light Machine Guns similar to the other SMGs.
Pros
- Magazine Size: While it has a low RoF of 550, it makes up for it with 35 Rounds per Clip. Though its older Sub-Machine Gun, PPSh-41 has 71 rounds of ammunition per clip.
- Close Combat: Easy to clean an entire house or building compared to the Assault Rifles, Semi-Automatic Rifles, and Light Machine Guns due to its shorter size.
- Reload Speed: With the reload speed of 3.0 Seconds, it's close to both the Maschinenpistole 34 and Thompson M1A1 with 2.9 Seconds of reload time compared to the PPSH-41 of 4.2 Seconds.
Between
- Rate Of Fire: The PPS-43 is somewhat a gun that could be relied on it's Rate of Fire as it could save ammunition, but also it's slower Rate of Fire compared to the other Sub-Machine Guns except for the Maschinenpistole 40 can sometimes result in yourself dying first because of the bullets flying out of a 600rpm Thompson M1A1.
Cons
- Single Fire: While the Thompson M1A1 and PPSh-41 have Single Fire Mode for their weapon, the PPS-43 lacks it.
- Ranged Combat: Every SMGs within Heroes&Generals don't really have the range to fight against Assault Rifles, Semi-Automatic Rifles, and Light Machine Guns. So it's best keep things in Close Quarters Combat or Medium Range Combat.
