The real 1919 30 cal verses the one in Post Scriptum

[Lt. Jimmy Patterson]

Well guys.... a few of us have noticed the the 30 cal in post scriptum fires wayyy faster than the actual one did. Here is a video of the rate of fire of the actual one: https://youtu.be/Rh0dJaKSfAY

Do you think the devs did this intentionally so that the US machine gun could be a “match” for the mg34 and mv42? Personally I believe it is fitting that the Germans have superior MGs just like in real life. I mean hey, specially since the US has m1 garands. :)
Every other gun seems to have perfect rate of fire...however not sure what is going on The the 30 cal browning.

Here is the one from the game: https://youtu.be/M3VwT_nYUuY
It fires nearly as fast as the mg34.

[Vlad The Inhaler]

Minimal if any difference. Its the old nazi imagery argument but in rate of fire mode

[Necramonium™]

It does not fire as fast as the MG34, but the browning we have in the game is the M1919A6 version, not the a1 as seen in your video. It was a fastly upgraded version.

[Lt. Jimmy Patterson]

Here is the a6 Versio ... it still has that slow and steady rate of fire: https://youtu.be/kNNaK9ijOGo

Another video of the 1919a6 to show how slow it is: https://youtu.be/LX7YCtvhwhs

According to this it’s rare of fire is around 500rpm. http://modernfirearms.net/en/machineguns/u-s-a-machineguns/browning-m1917-m1919-eng/
I wonder if there is a way to find the official fire rate of the one in game.

Yeah it does sound like the game has made the m1919 fire at a higher rpm, close to 700 rpm Im guessing. Not a fan of that, why can't we have the promised historic authenticity..

[Necramonium™]

Maybe they based it on hollywood style Brownings, the one in Band of Brothers also had a fast rate of fire (2:02) https://youtu.be/szTGXeLk2Jg?t=83

Also, the sounds are a bit bugged as well in the test, maybe thats why it gives the impression it fires fast.

Americans have been out for 8 gameplay hours and wehraboos are already being professional victims. Where's the gun jams?

Play these side by side at their starting points:

Any manual testing and people will come up with their own conclusions.


Let's just wait until they're fully released so we can see for ourselves, but it takes 4 lines of code to determine rate of fire with this engine, the devs aren't that dumb.

Sadly I can’t access their discord site. Can one of you please post this or bring this discussion up? We know the real m1919a6 fires around 450-500 rpm which is actually a slow steady beat. The one in game is definitely closer to 700rpm as Gorlami pointed out. Thanks guys!

Wehraboos here ?

[Nick]

dev stated today that he thinks its too high also, said they will fix it.

[Lt. Jimmy Patterson]

Wow bulldog that is awesome! Was that on discord?

[Nick]
