This gun has less ammo than a fedorov and less damage than an STG44, it feels absolutely terrible to use and it needs a buff to make it suitable at BR5.
Buffing the damage even more makes no sense at all given the power of the bullet. Buffing the reload speed or recoil is not going to be enough to make it good at BR5. The extra capacity is needed to its more similar to the Hyde or STG.
I agree with all that as originally I thought it was the Arisaka round. But caring this much about a guns “historically accurate” magazine size when there’s not even photos left of it and it never even finished testing is absolutely schizo
The amount of fictional mag sizes for balanceing is staggering when you concider that this is the ONLY real stat that is dictated by the guns they are based on.
Every other stat outside of maybe rof they got free reign over how they define it as irl there is no statsheet with this weapon has x recoil and y damage. But instead of useing one of those stats to balance they chose the fictional route instead.
The magazine spring was poorly made and the ammo was scarce so they put 20 rounds in instead of the intended 30. If that’s ann excuse you need to continue living. Again. You have never even seen a photo of this thing why tf do you care so much. Absolutely asinine
Maybe if devs didnt give half of the recent weapons fictional mags people might give the devs the benefit of the doubt but atm it looks more like they dont even care anymore.
Even than why does a 20 round AR belong into BR 5 when every other faction has 30 at no real cost?
Well originally I was going for making it do the same damage as the federov. Which would definitely be justification. Also “half of the recent weapons” when it’s one event assault rifle from like half a year ago lol
