As many of you know, the Tokyo Arsenal Model 1927 is powered by hard ribbons on 10 rounds each, so, similar to the MG 34 and MG 42, I’m asking you to add the Tokyo Arsenal Model 1927 with a 100-round ribbon! No, 250 rounds !
Actually the magazine is small, if you consider that the cartridges are staggered, I got about 18 cartridges when overlaying the cartridges on top of the magazine photo (the photos above have just the same ratio of cartridge to magazine), this is the number that appears in the box magazine for the Tokyo Arsenal Model 1928, I can assume that they used the same magazine.
Tokyo Arsenal Model 1927 with an 18 round box magazine could be a good event reward for 2 BRs (given the quick reload, as 18 rounds is very small, but Japan has content issues and we don’t have as much choice).
Although maybe they totally accidentally picked up a magazine from Tokyo Arsenal Model 1928, which might not fit Tokyo Arsenal Model 1927, but decided to take a photo? To be honest, I couldn’t find any information about testing of the box magazine for Tokyo Arsenal Model 1927.I don’t have access to all Japanese literature, though .
They don’t realpy have a great preformance though,the MG15 is IMO hard to im,dispersion still isn’t good even after the buff,eats through ammo way too fast,and reloads way too slow,and the MG34 pat is just the BR3 version with a longer reload and a few more bullets.The western allies have 4 and russia has 3 100+ round beltfed MGs,which just isn’t fine,and even japan gets a rare one,when germany was famous for the use of MGs with high capacities.
Ha, Germany has a huge choice of weapons, for example there is a choice between excellent machine guns for 2 BR (USSR and USA/England have terrible machine guns for 2 BR), there is an excellent choice in equipment (USSR for example has no analog of Ju 188 and airplane with 500 kg bomb, USA/England have problems with aircraft for 1-2 BR, also neither the USA/England nor the USSR has no equal analog to the Royal Tiger), there is an excellent choice of rifles for 1-2 BR (the USSR has no semi-automatic rifle, no rifle with increased ammunition, similar to the Vg 3, the USA has no semi-automatic rifle). I’d rather keep silent about the amount of content Japan has. I also recommend considering how many weapons and units for Germany were given out of all the events! Obviously Germany needs the least amount of new content. If Germany is to introduce a machine gun with a belt for 100 rounds, it should be an analog of MT and M1919 A6, that is MG 15/18 or LMG 15.
What exactly it proves that germany is underdog?
Extra point-thats an event weapon not a TT one
Well i will say the list of weapons japan is lacking of while germany is not
Assault rifles
AT gun like panzerfaust
Plane like ju-188 (i mean who dont like carpet bombing) or generally good cas that wont start at Aircraft carriers
Good tank with a turret
More event things in general
MAPS (DF we need pacific city maps already)
Also
By using your logic then soviets need auto rifle with 20 round mag (finally)
well i see
germany suffers (i think i have heard this already…but where) and need stuff right here right now
japan can wait (i do hope while they are waiting for germany to get some wunderwaffe DF wont forget completely about them)
i guess faction biases on this side of the forum are something special
it takes some imagination to consider either zb26 or mg13? as “Great”
Sure, probably better than ussr or USA but quite far from great.
And idk how these BR2 lmg’s are supposed to make any differency in subject of +100 belt LMG that would obviously be BR4-5.
IL-2 & germany doesnt have rockets at low BR.
P-38 ?
IS-2 can deal with KT.
Murrican cas spam can also deal with KT.
For all I care they can add that hideous Moist Nugget SA conversion for soviets to low BR.
Like it made any differency.
M1
Ironicly, I got event squads for most other factions except germany.
For some odd reason, such as para squad required ~20 ? Days for germany while sovjet required ~4-8? days of playing.
Infact, ive got pretty much ready BR5 setup for soviets just from events.
While I got ~ 2 ? Event squads for GE.
They aren’t always last in events, but it’s usually because they’re event equipment is the best of the bunch and they want you to work for it. And either way, it’s still free, you still have the opportunity to get it. AND! It’s not really 20 days of game play. It’s much closer to 2 hours of gameplay for total of 10 days.
Oh right. Having 4 different Berettas to grind, 3 different stg’s and fair share of other “MP’s”.
Faction that requires the most grind to get to BR5. Sure its best in that sense.
True, I actually got the horn stg squad which is practically useless.
Id like to remind some of us has to actually work, so no. Fair share of us cant invest 20 days to get a event squad.
Last time I checked, I cant refresh the event on my own.
So yes I indeed have to wait 20 days to finish the event.
