Never.
Every new fake gun added brings us closer to abyss.
Some people blindly trust the devs/forum posts and might actually believe Hori, Silenced PPSh, T-44 and Su 9 1946 are real combat used WW2 equipment.
Since this poll asked what to do with this I expressed my opinion within the “something else” option.
It can have a 30 round magazine, but then it will be the strongest AR of BR5, which AS44 cannot compete with.
nothing is going to beat the fedorov because of its damage, and a good player can manage the recoil of it
I literally posted a technical report on the weapon and the muzzle end of the assault rifle…
Tha Japanese already have their own Federov in TT. Only wiht bayonet, bipods, 30 round mag and it can be go with 3*9 meta. It calls Type Hei Automatic rifle.
With damage of at least 10 to 11 points and a 30-round magazine, it would be ideal for BR5 (while maintaining the controllability of the Type 2 and having a good fire rate), but as it currently stands, it’s not much better than the Kiraly 39M, which is BR4 and has a 40-round magazine.
You mean the weaker version of Type hei auto
With the ASSAULT IV having more perk points plus the damage-reducing armor for the USSR, Japan will suffer considerably.
No thats very silly, how could Japs they possibly have obtained captured Federov’s?
Depends on damage and handeling. Its just that 20 rounds is rather low making it the weakest assault rifle. I don’t know if high ROF will really compensate for that (might make the weapon even worse since you run out of ammo in a sec).
Its not silly at all. if anything its way more realistic than a TT Ofenrohr. Im not asking for it to be TT still.
Its old enough and appeared on enough battles for Japanese to be at least aware of it, and also uses their native ammunition.
It is said that Japanese captured some during the Battle of Lake Hasan
Honestly there are 2 options for it to go:
It’s matched to StG and AS levels of power and it’s 9.4 damage 30 round AR. Problem with this solution is that it’s never going to get use when Type Hei is essentially a direct upgrade. 13.9 damage, 30 rounds, similar ROF, better dispersion, still very low recoil
Keep it at 20 rounds but match its power level to Fedorov Avtomat. This way it would be somehow viable as an option to take at a high tier. My proposition would be: 13.9 damage (with AR damage dropoff), 20 rounds, 0.21 dispersion
No, It cannot be worse than MKB42 (H). High fire rate can at least ensure that you win a fight with first 2-4 enemy.
Well, Japan really have a couple of Federov as a trophy from 1930-s Soviets-Japan conflict. There even the Japan scheme of trophy Federov after their research.
But still, why Japan needs Federov then they have Type Hei automatic rifle which is better.
And honestly, i am annoying of how many copypaste Japan have. Give Japan Japanese weapon, please.
Developers should remove M2 sawoff after the update. Seems no one on forum actually equipped this
The recoil of the new Type 2 is simply terrible! It’s circular and almost impossible to control! It’s worse than the Thompson .30! Like all Type 2s, it fires from a closed bolt in terms of animation.
If you feel uncontrollable, you can switch to low firing rate mode, and still have about 700RPM
If it’s level 5, equipping a 30-round magazine would be a great choice. It could compete with the American M2 carbine.
Facing the Soviet Union, it would be on par.
We forwarded 2 options:
Either 30 rounds + extra buffs to its other stats so that it fits br 5 properly
Or 20 + higher damage
