The PPD-37 has a lower rate of fire than the PPD-34. But it has the ability to attach a bayonet and fold the magazine. (It would also be cool to give all weapons with folding anything badass first deploy animations )
Give it it’s bayonet along with it’s 700 base ROF buff the Type 100 got. It’s got to be brought up to Gaijin’s current level one smg parameters, and bring along the M50 while were at it.
Thank you, I’ve posted something like this before, there should be bayonets on weapons with bayonet fix, they maybe useless, but should let players decide to install or not install it, instead of just ignoring these beautiful melee weapons.
In BFV the main weapon I use for both Japan and Germany is the MP 34 with an Bayonet. It’s very satisfying to successfully kill someone with it. I’m all for it.
Ahhh, well, the US M50 smg was also known to sport a 30 round magazine and shoot between 750 and 850 rpm as well, so I guess we will be seeing it upgraded to 850 very soon . As to Enlisted, the dev’s have never cared if something was accurate.
…Reising 30-round magazines are aftermarket and post war though…
I can’t argue with rate of fire, but what kind of logic is this? Type 100 rate of fire boost is based on evidence, how does it suddenly equal to Enlisted being intentionally inaccurate?
The point is, the MOST COMMONLY used should be used, not the max, thus the reason neither were made in the game to shoot 700 plus, especially at BR1. Both should be shooting between 450 and 600 at BR 1. The Type 100 did not get he ROF increase to 800 until 1944, which should make that a BR2 or BR3 smg.
DF opened pandora’s box by adding experimental weapons and even weapons that were never used in the war, so adding a 30 round magazine might not be WW2 correct, however that has never seemed to matter to Gaijin. Two examples of guns that were never used in WW2 that are currently in the game are the Winchester 1866 and 1877. Neither saw action in WW2, yet for some reason found their way into the game. So, with the Dev’s historical accuracy doesn’t matter.
700 is not an experimental number though? Type 100 should have been uptiered when its rate of fire was increased, but it doesn’t mean that it should have 450 RPM because of English Wikipedia numbers
if anything, devs should have been researching the material more thoroughly when adding shit and not just rely on Wikipedia, but we’vee got what we’ve got
The M50 numbers are not experimental either, nor was the 30 round magazine. For BR1, neither should shoot over 600 rpm, "NEITHER:, and the Soviets should not have the PPD-34 shooting over 900 in BR1.
However, if they are going to buff one level one smg that is NOT experimental, then they should buff the other level one smg, which is NOT experimental either. Right?
The 30 round magazine also was not experimental, however, was a later addon, however the Dev’s have never cared if a weapon was necessarily used in WW2, as my example of the two Winchesters pointed out, which means they wouldn’t necessarily care if a magazine was period accurate.
Both to be honest for level one should be shooting the same ROF as numbers show that both shot anywhere between 450 and 850, so, if one is going to be overly buffed, then the other needs to for balance.
