My Hopes for new Battlepass

[AchtColaAchtBier]

I hope the last repeatable Levels are have a rework and be no longer 1000 Silver or 3x50% xp boosts.

I hope we get many many more Customization Orders instead of only 6 unique heads when a Squad could have 9 Mens.

I hope some Gold Order Guns for my Engineer Event Squads, i only have 3 MKB35s x)

i know YOU guys have better Ideas and more then me, let me know… I want to dream…

[IceySmooth]

Already got u on the Battlepass engineer weapons

Low BR Battle pass interwar/experimental assault rifles

As argued here Mkb35/iii is the only old battle pass AR that works with recently released assault engineers. As were getting more flexible squads for low BR (both Soviet VDV paras but other nations will surely follow) it would be great to see a battle pass devoted to seeing some interwar experimental AR/ auto-carbines. Obviously due to balance and historical reasons, these weapons should stay as rare battlepass or event/premium weapons. Few ideas below follow: Soviets, self explanatory deta…

I also wish we get customization for all nations. Kinda weird that only germans got cool hats while rest didnt

I want to dream…

I hope some of my weapon suggestion get added

[noktinnky_noktin]

i want that italian grenade launcher to be add tbh just to see parrot reaction

[coldestwinter]

I hope so too! You have shared so many interesting guns. I think the only faction you haven’t covered is Japan? That is no doubt the most difficult nation to find guns on I’m sure.

@AchtColaAchtBier

i only have 3 MKB35s x)

I only have 1 X_x. Low BR assault rifles would be so great, would make the assault engineers worth using.

@coldestwinter_

covered is Japan

@SzepWaxweiler

Imma keep it short

Type 92 machine gun

Essentially a copy of the Lewis gun, the Type 92 was fed with a drum magazine and used in a flexible mount. The main external difference between the two models was the latter’s lack of casing, the trigger guard, and cooling fins around the barrel and gas piston tube.
It should be a good LMG to add to the Japanese tech tree It is already in the game your plane’s gunner uses this but I want it for infantry use and it would give Japan a good lmg with high capacity for maybe tier 5

Type 89 machine gun

The Type 89 FIXED gun was a license-built version of the machine gun that armed the Vickers E-class tank

It would also be a good high capacity lmg for japanese

@SzepWaxweiler

Type 38 with 30 round Type 96 magazine

I don’t know even this thing selects fire or automatic or is it only manual fire type if it was only manual I would suggest to make it a fully automatic or SF as game doesn’t need to follow reality 1to1 and Japan if goes to BR 5 would desperately need a SF rifle or automatic rifle

captured GENERAL LIU RIFLE

The General Liu Rifle was probably the first[Chinese semi-automatic rifle. It is named after General Liu Qing-En (Traditional Chinese: 劉慶恩; Simplified Chinese: 刘庆恩), its inventor and the first Superintendent of Hanyang Arsenal. The prototype rifle was first tested in 1916, but never entered production.

Experimental Ultra-Light machine gun

A prototype weapon that is a light machine gun made from the Type Ko.

Experimental Model 3 machine pistole

Experimintal automatic KO rifle (Short carbine version is not in the game)

captured stens

During World War Two, Canada supplied some 73,000 Sten guns (made by the Long Branch arsenal) to Chinese Nationalist forces in an effort to help them fight the Japanese. These Stens were standard MkII pattern guns, chambered for the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge.

captured sig ke 7

The SIG KE7 is a light machine gun designed and manufactured in Switzerland in the decade before the Second World War. Although exported, it was never used by the Swiss Army
Production commenced in 1929, with most weapons being exported to the Republic of China chambered for 7.92×57mm ammunition.

Captured Hotchkiss M1922

The Hotchkiss M1922 was used with great success by the Greek Army during Greco-Italian War during the fight against the Royal Italian Army It was also used by the Chinese Nationalist Army during the Second Sino-Japanese War to fight against the Japanese Imperial Army

It should be a good LMG to add to the Japanese tech tree It is already in the game your plane’s gunner uses this but I want it for infantry use and it would give Japan a good lmg with high capacity for maybe tier 5

type 89 used in the article is TE-4 variant which was referred as flexible type and was used as infantry weapon

Field-modification of Type 98 swivel machine gun

Capture bren chambered in 8MM mauser

An uncommon example of 8 mm mause chambered Bren made for exports to china during ww2 by Canada. Its mk 2 bren chambred in 8 mm mauser

@SzepWaxweiler

type 4 rocket launcher with 90 mm rocket

According to wiki it could punch 120 mm of steel (wiki page just search 試作九糎空挺隊用噴進砲)

@SzepWaxweiler

As a bonus here an event squad armed with STG-44s

the military attache of the Japanese Imperial Navy, Admiral Yokoi, draws up a purchase agreement (dated September 27, 1943) for six units of MP-44 assault rifles. Date of completion/acceptance 09.19.1944
But most likely they never reached Japan

Modification of the experimental submachine gun Type II A model 1942

Type II A of the 1942 model was slightly shorter than the 1934 model and did not have a device for attaching a bayonet.
The maximum set rate of fire is 820 rounds per minute. Culd be fed either 30 or 50 round.
The total length of the barrel with chamber is 241.3 mm, the rifled part with a bullet transition is 220 mm. The number of riflings is 6, with a width of 3.175 mm, a depth of 0.1524 mm, and a rifling stroke of 254 mm.
The outer surface of the barrel has segmental longitudinal lobes to increase the intensity of heat removal during prolonged shooting.
The British test group tested a modification of the Type II A submachine gun of the 1942 model showed excellent performance in automatic fire, was characterized as an easily controlled and accurate weapon with low weight, with minimal barrel drift and low recoil.

Experimental submachine gun Type I model 1934.

The number of Type I submachine guns produced in 1934 is estimated at 50 units. The Imperial Japanese Army tested it in 1936 and 1937, supposedly underwent military tests in southern China (there is no confirmation of this fact yet), information about tests and use in the imperial fleet is not confirmed.
Performance characteristics of the submachine gun Type I (Shisei is–gata kikauu tanjuu) model 1934, caliber 8x21mm Nambu, open-end 50-round magazine, total length 638 mm, barrel length 229 mm, rate of fire 400-600 rounds per minute, weight 2950 g

Japanese self-loading rifle of the Kokura Arsenal

A single copy received as a trophy in 1945 from the Kokura arsenal has survived and is stored in the museum of the US National Rifle Association.
This rifle was first mentioned in the article “Japanese Rifles and Carbines” by MD Waite in American Rifleman magazine, February 1958.
Also in the book “Military rifles of Japan” (5th edition) by Honeycutt FL, Jr. on page 169 there is a photo and a brief description of the Kokura Arsenal rifle.

@SzepWaxweiler

Beretta m38/43

In June 1943, the Yokosuka Naval Arsenal submitted an application for the purchase of a batch of Beretta submachine guns in the amount of 350 units, complete with three 20-round magazines and 2000 rounds of ammunition.
Before Italy left the war on September 8, 1943, in early August, the first and only batch of M38/43 submachine guns, 50 units with 150 magazines and 50,000 rounds of 9 mm M38 caliber, arrived at the Yokosuka base.
In general, the Japanese version of the M38/43 is not much different from the Italian one, except for the absence of any markings with the full name of the manufacturer or affiliation with the Japanese fleet; there are acceptance marks in the form of a kanji and letter marks (in the form of two letters) on parts manufactured by Beretta.
The main purpose of these submachine guns remains unclear. Perhaps they were purchased for comparative tests (but a non-standard cartridge for Japanese weapons), or perhaps for sabotage operations in the rear of the Australian, New Zealand and British armies (which used similar 9mm cartridges).
One way or another, this was the last purchase of small arms by the Japanese fleet. It should be mentioned that in March 1943 in Germany, 5 MP-40 units were handed over to the military representative of the Japanese army for review, the further fate of which remained unknown (perhaps they remained in Germany like the Tiger tank purchased in 1944).

@SzepWaxweiler

Approximately from 1927 to 1931, Japanese representatives purchased individual samples of self-loading and automatic rifles from Denmark, France, Czechoslovakia, England, and the USA.

Madsen-Rasmusen

rifle of the 1903 model, caliber 8x58R, with a long barrel stroke with locking, a magazine for 9-10 round. The rifle was rejected due to the complexity of the mechanism. a rate of fire of 60 rounds per minute.

RSC 17

designed by Riberol, Sutter and Chauch,model 1917, caliber 8x50R, gas-operated automatic with rotary cylinder locking, non-detachable magazine, loaded with a pack of 5 rounds.ate of fire 45-50 rounds per minute. The rifle was rejected due to its weight of 5275 grams, frequent breakdown of mechanisms and springs, and a special pack for cartridges.

Vickers Pedersen T2E1 Experimental Rifle

the Pedersen rifle from Vickers-Armstrong was purchased in several samples. Pedersen rifle model 1930, caliber .276 (wrantless), non-detachable magazine, loaded with a pack of 10 rounds. , rate of fire 50 rounds per minute. The rifle underwent extensive testing and was copied by the Koishikawa Army Arsenal.

M1922 Bang rifle

for comparative tests (not for adoption), Bang-Springfield rifles of the 1922 model and Browning systems of the 1918-1922 model (known as the Browning light machine gun. BAR m1918) of 7.62x63 mm caliber were purchased.
The bang-Springfield system, model 1922, caliber 7.62x63 mm, gas exhaust mechanism of a muzzle gas trap with locking, non-detachable magazine, loaded with 5-round clips. , rate of fire 40 rounds per minute.
The rifle was used in comparative tests with Japanese experimental designs.

Beside these

@SzepWaxweiler

• I wanted to give Japan something truly unique at first I wanted to give them 8mm captured Brens but I then remembered something if I give America something with a Feed strip lets give Japan something with feed strip as well this is Experimental With-Barrel Jacket Light Machine Gun its a prototype of type 11 MG with 30 round feed strip like American one (BR2)

@SzepWaxweiler

1-For Ar for Japan, we have to compromise otherwise we can’t add anything to it the best 3 candidates are Type 2 with 6.5 mm ammo (SMG with bigger ammo than normal small 6.5 and smaller than 6.5 Arisaka people from the forum already made topics about it), Dutch M.15 Madsen gun(captured)(With shortened barrel and chambered in 6.5x53R dutch mannlicher ammo, it would be similar in performance and role to Fedorov AR soviets have.) and lastly STG-44 (Japan bought 6 I don’t see them being in the tech tree but as a gold order why not)

( Dutch M.15 Madsen gun)

@SzepWaxweiler

Type 11 with 35 round box mag

Other than those

@SzepWaxweiler

Type 97 with Ji-Te Dan

Its 20 cm granade that pens around 220 to 250 mm

These were all I suggested for Japan some in their own topic some as in response other than those Japan has few experimental LMGs like type 5 LMG which was belt fed and suppused to be a tank MG and other MGs which were a deviation of Bren MG

[AchtColaAchtBier]

Oh i would love some RSC17, one of my favorite Guns from Battlefield1

Did someone remember the Elite Kits in BF1?
The 0815 Elite Soldier could only fire his LMG with Hipfire that was something great for me they could do in Enlisted with some 200/250 Magsize LMGs too.

When Battlepass comes there will follow hopefully a big Update too…
I hope they take one more look on the BRs for Guns and Vehicles and let this stupid “Map Rotation bound by BR” behind.

Some new Maps would be alot of work but good too.
Or 1 Special Squad achievement in the Battlepass

@AchtColaAchtBier

I hope we get many many more Customization Orders instead of only 6 unique heads when a Squad could have 9 Mens.

spot on.

for me, would also like to get more customization camouflage orders for vehicles too.

so that everyone get a chance to get them for at least one or two vehicles per seasons.
