Beta "Review"

So, long story short, I was one of the 1.6 Beta testers for this game. And boy oh boy, is this game fun. -SeptemberJack (talk) 21:12, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

We need screenshots soon or the page looks like it will get nuked. --Mazryonh (talk) 22:05, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

Don't worry, I'm getting them right now and will post them soon. --MJ79 (talk) 22:08, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

Okay, I think that's all the shots I've posted for now, and it looks almost complete! You're gonna need to fill in for the rest of the weapons.

BTW credits to PC Gaming Videos (XSmasher4ya) for the video where I made the screen rips: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fetrCc-FeM--MJ79 (talk) 01:01, 31 May 2017 (EDT)

Appreciate that, but I think the page should eventually get proper in-game captures rather than from a Youtube video. I would get more but I can only run the game on rather meager settings.--AgentGumby (talk) 18:13, 21 June 2017 (EDT)

I know that game screenshots with guns in different poses but same background count for the wiki, but they're still boring to look at. We need someone who has the full game to make some screenshots with more variety, preferably in action.--Mazryonh (talk) 18:02, 22 June 2017 (EDT)

Frankly, did the Soviets supply shotguns to the Vietcong? It seems to me that this is far-fetched. Some older shotgun such as M1897 would be much more appropriate. --Slon95 (talk) 18:16, 3 June 2019 (EDT)

M14

I've read somewhere that the standard issue M14 had it's fire selector removed when issued out and only if you were selected to be an automatic rifleman would you actually have a select fire M14. --AdAstra2009 (talk) 16:56, 31 May 2017 (EDT)

I believe the selector was locked in semi for most people, I can't see how you remove it without messing up the gun somehow.--Mandolin (talk) 19:24, 31 May 2017 (EDT)

I looked it up and you are correct --AdAstra2009 (talk) 21:57, 31 May 2017 (EDT)

Stoner 63

During the war, some troops were issued with the Stoner 63, especially in LMG variant. Since the Vietnamese soldiers have access to the DP-28, it would be actually good to side the Stoner with, don't you think? --James Dalcan (talk) 14:15, 02 June 2017 (GMT)

If I recall correctly, Stoner 63's were only given to Navy SEAL's in Vietnam, not regular old Army or Marines.--Aidoru (talk) 12:30, 2 June 2017 (EDT)

Tripwire just added the Stoner 63A in KF2, so one would hope it comes to this game. They did have the MKb-42(H) in Red Orchestra 2, as well.--AgentGumby (talk) 16:25, 2 June 2017 (EDT)

I know the Navy use of Stoner got the most press, but I thought the Marines got a few as well?--Mandolin (talk) 17:11, 2 June 2017 (EDT)

As the title implies, this FREE DLC pack is going to add the Aussie forces as a playable faction into the game. New weapons include the L1A1 battle rifle and L2A1 light support weapon, the F1 and Owen submachine guns and the Browning Hi-Power pistol, and lots of cosmetic stuff are in as well. Now that's how DLC should be. --MJ79 (talk) 10:24, 29 November 2017 (EST)

Awesome stuff! Apparently, the US will also get the XM177E1, and 3 new maps are getting added. Frankly, I'm hoping that the L1A1 will get some of its field-expedient modifications as options, such as the "matchstick" full-auto conversion, and the short-barreled variant, affectionately termed the "Bitch Gun". Well, we'll see. You can always count on Tripwire to do some interesting things. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 16:32, 29 November 2017 (EST)

I hope that they continue with this faction dsl and do: ARVN/CIDG with older us weapons garlands, m1/2 carbine, bar etc Viet Song with older French and maybe Japanese weapons Special forces/macv sog with stoner 63, hush puppy, Swedish k, AKs for us troops,xm148 and didn't the seals use some h&k g3s or hk33s in Vietnam. --Insertjjs (talk) 21:39, 29 November 2017 (EST)
