Why they buffed japan: they noticed on their statistics that few player play as japan.
Instead of adding more weapon and more maps to make this faction more fun to play, they just make existing weapon overpowered, hoping players will join japan for the fun to farm br1-2 us players.
Darkflow is just too lazy and it kills them to implement new weapons and make new maps for Pacific front.
You’re simply wrong about this, my winrate for Japan is significantly higher than any other nation. Japan struggling is a complete myth propagated by bad players or people completely new to the faction who forgot how tough it is to start with nothing again.
To be fair to them, there aren’t much SMGs left to add for Japan.
BR changes were always planned, but it’s more important than ever since half the japanese smg arsenal needs BR changes now
At least they can add more attackers, this isn’t a news that japan lacks attackers.
But they just dont want to bother themselves copying some planes from wt.
America Ptsd pacth update 
Maybe nerf a bit the damage before deciding to change the BR ? Like I said above, 8mm Nambu round is not supposed to be so powerful. That’s just a suggestion, you can decide if this is relevant enough or not to transmit this to the devs.
Well let me summarize this update :
The bombs they drop are quite out the way, you’d have to intentionally go into the red circles to get bombed.
So Japan can have 700 base RPM smg at BR 1 , Soviets can have a SMG with 750 RPM at BR 2 but god forbid if German players ask for a good BR2 smg or any buff to their SMGs
The low tier SMG buffs seem insane
It’s great that finally something has been done about the PPSh box, I hope to see SVT also get reload speed nerf and a buff to Gewehr 41
Not yet…
The peak…
Why does it needs yet another buff? Nerf that op shield already. 20 HP bonus is such p2w garbage.
I think they already tried to add more weapons but not many liked that they were copies so I suppose they will try this now apart from the fact that it is difficult to find historical Japanese weapons.
Op smgs got even more op. While Germany is permanently stuck with garbage ultra low rof Mp40/38/M1 Beretta and mediocre inaccurate M38/42 that are of BR1 power, actually now they could be BR0 with type100 buff. What’s the point of Germany? They are pathetically weak at BR2 and BR3.
That was not needed. It was already the most accurate lmg that had no mov dispersion penalty.
Finally after years of being broken
What? This isn’t even accurate, the early model had around 450 rpm source. Does Japan really need more buffs? BR3 is guaranteed to face downtiers only.
