Weapons and vehicles of the "Far Eastern Front" update

Only 20 rounds, high ROF and 7.8 damage
Constant reloading just like the scotti naval rifle.
Japan is gonna suffer badly

That’s base. Upgraded is 9.something. euthy showed pic of fully upgraded one. Recoil goes to 14/14 which is really 6/6. With recoil perks it should perform pretty dang well.

20 rds is fine. Their SF gets 30rds when everyone else gets 20. Nothing wrong with this.

20 rounds in the magazine is fictional, So if you don’t mind a magazine with a fictional amount of ammo, I want all Allied weapons to have 1 round in the magazine and all Japanese weapons to have 1000 rounds.

I would say dont buff the round;

Your going to be hard pressed to explain how 6.5x30 is going to outdamage say Stg44s 7.92x33, on velocity or volumetrics.

Type 95 6.5×30mm cartridge is: Mass: 7-7.5 grams. Muzzle Velocity: 550-600 m/s. Muzzle Energy: 1058.75-1350 J

7.92x33 Kurz: Mass: 8 grams. Muzzle Velocity: 685m/s. Muzzle Energy: 1886 J.

Its not close. Maybe zero recoil, ultra fast reload. But right now it feels more like thompson 30cal SMG in BR3 than Br5 material.

For comparison .30carbine round has 1300 J aka basically matches Type 95 rd in damage. (but 6.5x30 should reach out farther due to bullet shape)

The ammo itself is M1 carbine sized (actually smaller) so a clip should be able to hold 30 rounds I believe.
Recoil/ accuracy improvement and/or larger magazine capacity would be the way to do it.

Finally, something I’ve been requesting is making it into the game. :astonished:

If it can be used ONLY in the prone position, It will never see a second of action on the battlefields for me. :wink:

Now the Type 2a (1934)
Left to get
o0900027814880562955

is already in the game on BR4, but I’d like to have the 30-round version on BR2.

Very similar but some very tiny differences. A precursor to the Type 2 50 round we have on br 4. For me I want type 2a back on br 2 type 2a 1934 on br 3 .

As it turns out, the Type 2 may not have had the sling swivels, bent bipod, cooling holes in the barrel shroud/slide, or a bayonet lug.

That’s a artist interpretation, not a 1:1 recreation.

Well, it’s the same artist that remains the sole source of evidence as to what the thing looks like since, apparently, the Japanese government just doesn’t want to release the photos of the gun to the public.

I think it just looks like a standard type 2a but with a different mag.

But you should take art produced by “Morio” with a grain of salt because they produce quite stylised pieces:

I think it probably looks something more like this:

Externally it’d just be a standard type 2a, but internally it’d be different.

It’s hardly much of a difference, just the omittance of the sling swivels and a straighter bipod because there’s no swivel to get in the wal, cooling holes in the barrel jacket, and lack of a bayonet lug. It’s not particularly far fetched either considering it was the initial prototype of the gun.

And, sure, some of Morio’s guns are fictional, but he is quite literally the sole source outside of Japanese vaults of some variety of what the gun looks like, having apparently seen the pictures himself and made an artist’s rendition of it.

Did he say he’d seen pictures of the gun?

Interesting, looks like Japan equalivent of the Mauser m712/Colt Swartz made out of Nambu pistol and other parts, wonder if there was any prototype like that

EDIT: I couldnt find anything besides that Nambu pistol had a “Grandpa” version with a stock and there were some with longer barrel. Nothing with extended mags or auto fire variants, though event that uses better dmg ammo would do nicely:

He did, in fact. I read it on his blog, he seemed to be very interested in the Type 1/2 projects and saw photos of the original in person, and recently talked to someone else who did to and corrected his errors.

I think the development team has gone completely mad. Look at the actual performance of the game now. In BR5, the Soviets almost never drive tanks; they rely entirely on infantry for everything.
