[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;50002882]This. So much. Garand is maybe a bit better, only because of semi-automatic fire.[/QUOTE] no, garand is not better Enfield for life

[QUOTE=Araknid;50003189]no, garand is not better Enfield for life[/QUOTE] It does have two more rounds. I think the one in the Singapore mod is better.

[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;50003669]I think the one in the Singapore mod is better.[/QUOTE] That's because I made the bolt cycle and reload speed realistic.

That'd be too fast though I guess.

I can't make it any faster without manually remaking the animset. If I make the scale any higher it starts to break. :v:

[QUOTE=SergerantJoe;50004131]I can't make it any faster without manually remaking the animset. If I make the scale any higher it starts to break. :v:[/QUOTE] you'll never be firing it that fast under normal conditions anyways the number of technical failures should be enough testimony

Kinda curious, how's the SMLE faster than the other bolt-actions?

[QUOTE=Derp123213;50006447]Kinda curious, how's the SMLE faster than the other bolt-actions?[/QUOTE] [quote]The Lee–Enfield rifle was derived from the earlier Lee–Metford, a mechanically similar black-powder rifle, which combined James Paris Lee's rear-locking bolt system with a barrel featuring rifling designed by William Ellis Metford. The Lee action cocked the striker on the closing stroke of the bolt, making the initial opening much faster and easier compared to the "cock on opening" (i.e., the firing pin cocks upon opening the bolt) of the Mauser Gewehr 98 design.[/quote] [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee%E2%80%93Enfield[/url] Basically because the bolt handle is directly above the trigger, making it quicker and easier to access, and you cock (resetting the striker spring) on close instead of open, which requires less effort from you to open the bolt and extract a round. You close the bolt by slamming it back down anyway, so you don't think about the effort it takes to cock on close. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAvcv1OsGUs[/media]

[QUOTE=Derp123213;50006447]Kinda curious, how's the SMLE faster than the other bolt-actions?[/QUOTE] As lilguy said, bolt pretty much springs up while with other rifles you sort of have to force it up more, and you have to slam it closed while with other rifles closing it is smoother. But that doesn't really matter because you've already got the momentum going from moving the bolt forward to close it down. I've got a Lee Enfield, a Mosin and a rifle with a Mauser action and I can safely say that the Lee Enfield bolt is perhaps the nicest out of all of them.

As far as in-game weapons go I still prefer the Mosin, Springfield, and K98 all to the Enfield.

It's not "Red Orchestra" related but still... [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/ham-and-jam[/url] Anyone wants to try it out?

The Type 38 is my wizard's staff.

[QUOTE=Exooodus;50009944]The Type 38 is my wizard's staff.[/QUOTE] Might as well be, given how freaking long it is with bayonet.

[QUOTE=lilguy;50010554]Might as well be, given how freaking long it is with bayonet.[/QUOTE] I know! What were they thinking? It's way too long for jungle warfare, and especially way too long for the height most people were back then.

Every man and his dog has one. I've had a No.4 MK1 for about 5 or 6 years and I agree, smoothest bolt there is.

lots of alcohol had to be involved for this whole robodog deal [editline]27th March 2016[/editline] Oh shit wrong thread. On the topic of RO2, give the Heroes of the West mod a try, it's pretty fucking awesome. I give it an 8.5/10 PTSD rating

I'm actually glad it got released, after all the effort they deserve all the success they can get

[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;50013014]I know! What were they thinking? It's way too long for jungle warfare, and especially way too long for the height most people were back then.[/QUOTE] Heavy emphasis on bayonet drills IIRC and possibly a holdover for anti-cavalry purposes, which basically turned the rifle into a spear. Useful against the Chinese, Russians, and Mongols pre-World War II, but not so much defending their island footholds against American invaders.

Largely, the Type 38 was a leftover rifle from previous wars. The Type 99 was more powerful, smaller, and overall outclassed the Type 38. The problem was that they didn't have enough time before the Pacific War broke out to give one to everybody. In RS though I love using it mostly because of it's weapon length and fire rate. And I like the iron-sights on it a lot too.

Always liked the Type 38 better.

Yeah, the sights on the Type 99 have the same problem as the M1 Garand and Carbine. Although the 99 is at least somewhat useable as opposed to the M1s.

[QUOTE=Joseph Smith;50024410]Always liked the Type 38 better.[/QUOTE] Does the Type 38 have less muzzle flash in game? I'm literally only on the receiving end of it 5% of the time, so I can't tell. All I know is that it's a bit more accurate and less damaging in game.

Man this game has great consistent performance! :vs: After upgrading my graphics card and overclocking, my framerate literally turned to shit. I can't get higher than 60 on high settings. Is this normal? Which is weird, as I got consistent 90fps before I upgraded.

As far as consistency goes, I don't find the game to be consistent with its performance either.

I get like 120 fps on medium settings, so i'll keep it there.

Yoshiro posted some more shots of RS2 content today.

Hopefully the MAT-49 is just [I]kinda[/I] shit and the quick ass reload time is supposed to be the balancing factor

[QUOTE=cdr248;50051164]Hopefully the MAT-49 is just [I]kinda[/I] shit and the quick ass reload time is supposed to be the balancing factor[/QUOTE] It is an SMG for one, so that's one reason why.

I hate that mag slap tbh

jesus christ it takes way too long to level up honor All I want is the M1919 as the Japanese, but I still have 24 levels to go
