Pack howitzer should be brought in line with ISG.
It has a barrage range of 100, but only 60 for auto-fire.
It makes no sense while ISG can auto fire at max range.

Especially when manual barrage takes a long long time to reload

ISG:

Muzzle velocity 210 m/s (690 ft/s)
Maximum firing range 3,550 m (3,880 yd)

Pack Howitzer:

Muzzle velocity 381 m/s (1,250 ft/s)
Effective firing range 9,600 yards (8,778 meters)

Why does the Pack Howitzer fire its shell slower and at a handicapped range far shorter than the LEIG?

Leig is the problem not the Pack.

I do think that the Pack Howitzer should be better as an artillery weapon. Currently both the auto-fire and barrage are inferior to the LeIG, the auto-fire has less range. The barrage is awful, it fires less shells and has a longer cooldown than the LeIG. At Vet 5 the LeIG fires 8 shells and has no cooldown, while the Vet 3 Pack Howitzer still fires 3 and has a 15 second cooldown.

Bringing up Vet 5 is cheating, but I only seek to highlight the disparity between the two guns.

There is one reason, in every game we play, it has to do with game mechanics, balance and gameplay otherwise we would play a game that is named simulation and even these are not close to reality

Those comparisons are in a wrong place in a computer game.

And to get a bit salty, has annyone here complaining about how weak pakhowi is even outplayed it correctly?

I tell you guys that this thing can do a lot, handle with care use vet abilities and enjoy
