Sir this is a Event, not TT, it literally says so right at the top of the page thank you
I referred to the relevant content of the two books “Vladimir Fodov: В поисках оружия. Мемуары создателя первого автомата” and “АК-47. История создания и принятия на вооружение Советской армии”
Magazine size - no problem
Auto fire - this is an improvement made during WW1
chumak’s article - I translated and read it and did not find any mention of burst fire
Conclusion: Fedorov 1913 can fire fully automatic, but there is no evidence that it can burst fire
In fact, the community manager of the Russian forum also admitted that they lack evidence
I guess we’re about to get a new fully auto rifle.

Curses. Sorry my mistake. Still annoyed its another foreign gun when everyone else gets their own stuff.
Edited the message since my point still stands.
If there truly is no evidence for that - then the G43k nerf was in no way justified.
Should this be the case, I would consider this pure toxic bias from the devs. This is unforgivable.
Bring back 3 round burst G43k

Japan don’t have much own stuff in the first place. So they should prioritize putting Japan stuff on tech tree instead of locking them behind event.

Japan does have stuff, idk how often you go to the suggestions tab but every other week there’s a massive compilation of things that could/should be added for Japan.
Just to mention two

At the time, 3-Round Burst was a very unique feature, and if a weapon had this feature, the test report (including the test report of the enemy) would definitely point it out.
The G43 Kurz was once captured by the Soviets, but they only mentioned that it had a fire-control mechanism with two setting, automatic and single. And the German museum which exhibiting the G43k did not mention this feature too.
In this case, opponents do not need to prove that there is no burst fire, but supporter should prove that it can burst fire.
PS: I’m not discussing the game

Well then does that Fedorov have a burst or not?
Because if it is fantasy, so should the fantasy of the G43k be no issue.
We will see if Fedorov have any changes.

They better come up with a good source for this, otherwise I will be pissed to the max.

Stop with the Thompson spam! (sad japs get nothing unique)
But besides that, really cool weapons. Really like the wierd German MKb.42. Looks like a modern rifle with a ‘WW2’ skin.
And Federov … although I really doubt the historic authenticity of this thing, its does look cool as hell.
Most of them are just foreign copy, minor variant of tech tree weapon, stuff that are needed by Japan tech tree and uninteresting stuff compare to other weapon of this event.
You mean just like the M2A1 is a variant of the M2? I’d take a minor variant over another captured gun.
Also I agree they should add more to the TT, but I don’t think they would do that while everyone else gets event guns.

That is just lazy reusing BP gun on event in the first place.
Then you will heard complaints like why Japan is getting a lazy effortless gun that is basically a copy paste tech tree gun.

Doubt anyone would complain if we finally got say a Type Kō that wasn’t premium locked, or a ULMG (Type Hei lmg) with the 20rnd mag. Anything else would be better served in the TT.
Plus I bet some of the US players would be happy for a BR2 Thompson which on paper is just a copy pasted TT gun on a lower BR for them.
Idk what your point is anymore, like I said if there’s going to be an event for the other nations then they won’t do TT stuff for a single nation even if its needed, so could at least be something more unique than [captured gun].
Event locked isn’t that good either.
Straight downgrade from tech tree ones.
Did I said anything about adding them to tech tree now?
We should reserve it for the tech tree.
A capture gun that US didn’t even have is definitely more unique than some minor variant of tech tree gun that you can barely find any difference.
Ofc its not good but thats an argument against events themselve instead of this specific example.
Then give it more spare ammo, balancing isn’t just a single stat.
Your initial reply yes “they should prioritize putting Japan stuff on tech tree instead of locking them behind event.”
Unique how, its literally a Thompson with smaller mag and higher RoF, if they didn’t put it on BR2 there would be 0 reason to use this thing and even then the other BR2 TT Japanese SMGs are more appealing imo. They could’ve just went with the stick mag Toyko Arsenal SMG and gotten the same result from a gameplay perspective.
This 18 Round 試製自動短銃 could be a perfect replacement for Thompson 1921.

Did I said NOW?
It’s not like all Japan players use Thompson before. So it is definitely more unique than some minor modification of tech tree gun that they use everyday.
They don’t even perform similar other than similar rate of fire. Moreover it should be on tech tree.
