A question about japanese weapon in the Rising Strom.

[Sim_Wolfshebnickoff]

What weapon is better as playing for the japan team?

Is Type 100 SMG without upgrades better, then with it? Type 100 at 25 lvl has adjustable sight and bayonet at 50 lvl, but irongiht is inconvenient for close combat — however, it makes easier shooting at 100 m and above, but basic ironsight is better for 0–50 m. Bayonet are useless for japanese commanders, because they have katana, that can makes faster strikes. And for close combat more rate of fire is better, because it does allow spread more bullets by time unit, that makes more effective suppression fire. But for a distance low rate of fire is better (optionaly — single fire), because recoil will not give aim to shoot at a high rate (except machine guns).

After all of that, is Type 100 without upgrades may be better for short distance, and for long ranges — with it? But on 100 m Thompson shoots more effective, and it has more universal ironsight with larger magazine after upgrades (if trophy weapons are enabled on the server).

Type 96 LMG has a small flash from a shot, but 6.5 mm is not powerfull as 7.7 mm, although 6.5 is faster, then 7.7. May be for long ranges 6.5 mm is better, but Type 99 LMG has more rate of fire and for short bursts more ROF may be bteer by shooting with bipods, especially for fast-moving targets. But bith machine guns has small magazines and Type 96 with smaller ROF can shoots at more longer time. However, Type 96 loses in comparison with Browning M1919A6, but Type 99 is like MG 34 with small magazine.

And Type 97 sniper rifle against Type 99 sniper rifle has this problen too — 6.5 mm vs 7.7 mm. For a sniper rifle small flash is better, but few maps with large open spaces are in the Rising Storm (this makes useless M1903 with 8x cope and sniper M1903 doesn't have ironsoght), and 7.7 mm may be better.

But as rifleman's weapon Type 38 is better then Type 99, because it has more comfortable ironsight and its size makes 'banzai charges' easier.

Type 14 pistol is weak, and M1911 is better if trophy weapons are enabled on the server.

On some servers M1 Carbine is available, but this good for 0–50 m only.

And what do you prefer in the game?

I agree with most of that book you wrote :)

LMGs are made to be Suppression weapons, QCB & just send rounds down range.
Honestly - I never use MGs, Ppsh, mp40, etc. hell i feel bad when i get Arty kills.
when the day comes that i cant get 75-100 kills a game with a rifle only, then i wont play this anymore...

I myself only rock bolt action & Singleshot rifles, i got my 95 Rank using only a SVT-40.

SVT-40 is the best weapon in RO2, but M1 Garand in RS1 has inconvenient ironsight.
