I REALLY wish people would stop yelling for balance fixes and instead ask for tips or strategies to beat the (possibly) overpowered things in the game.
MG42 early is a huge pain if it can get in a house or behind solid green cover. But there are DEFINITELY ways to beat it. I play primarily as Soviets, so I run into that situation all the time. Your best bet is to avoid it early on. Go for cut-offs to deny them the resources they're camping or go and claim the other resources yourself. From the soviet perspective, you can get a mortar and/or molotovs after a short while. Use a smoke barrage on the MG to get close with your units. I don't want to get tied down in specifics. Point is, there are ways to beat an early MG42.
If they spam MG42s, then that's your cue to go for a light vehicle and clean up.
Rifle grenade is annoying, but I wouldn't say OP. Watch for clumped up units and try to dodge. This a well designed ability to test a battle of micro in my opinion.
