  • Unless you have loadout mirroring turned on, then every weapon selection will only be for that faction and that combat role.
    So if you select the MP40 for the British Field Medic, but then the next match you are the Americans, then it will select whatever weapon/combat role you used last as American, regardless of what you had selected previous game as the British.

    @Plucky6922 I have mirroring turned off. I like to use axis/allied accurate weapons. So I want to have an stg/mp40 when playing german faction and sten/einfieldwhen playing uk.

    Most of my classes are set up the way i want them except for the German medic that uses a Thompson like i have on my UK and american class and my UK support that has an mg 42 like my German support has.
  • Make sure that when you select the weapon you want for the Faction Class you want, that you do so for the combat role you want also.
    A lot of times when people have issues with loadouts, it is due to confusion with Combat Roles.
    Also, not sure if you play combined arms or not, but any changes you make there, does not carry over to the next match played, combined arms or multiplayer.

    What I would do, to double check, is to go into your Company via the main menu and manually go through all 32 loadouts(4 factions, 4 classes, 2 role for each), to make sure each loadout is what you want equipped.

    @Plucky6922 I checked all my loadouts and changed my german combat medic and my uk machine gunner to the weapons i wanted but when i loaded into a server both were reset to what they were before i changed them.
  • Hmm, that is very odd.
    At a loss as what else to suggest for you to attempt.
