DICE are pretty realistic when it comes to representing weapons in BF1 regarding Fire Rate and Muzzle Velocity.
(They obviously greatly tweak the damage value to balance the game)
Regarding the new Medic weapon....
In gameplay videos and screenshots, the Fedorov is said to have a fire rate of 225 RPM.
(see last one)

But every research I do, I read that the fire rate was between 350 and 600 RPM.
350-400 :
600 :
I'm just curious, is the 225 RPM, seen in the game screenshot, the Fire rate we'll see of this weapon when the DLC is released?
Or were the first version of this weapon feature a fire rate of 225rpm

Does the General Liu clip reload 5 rounds or 6? I never saw anyone empty reload it yet and this is the only reason I'd even bother using it.
What do you think of the Vetterli?
Vetterli is slow and weak.
From what I've seen;
Full reload is 6 in stripper clip (also mag capacity)
Tac reload is single rounds
I may have seen a 5 round stripper clip reload from having one still in the chamber (like the RSC) but I'm not too sure

Vetterli looks to be a marksman's dream (as in people who are dead accurate)
From what I saw it looks like the Vetterli sweet spot is close. Is the velocity really slow? It must be the black powder variant then (I was assuming so since it had 4 rounds loaded).
Did you try the optical one? How did they compare?
The Fedorov looks like it's a CQC weapon to begin with.
I just hope it's a true trench variant and not a Factory in disguise.
It looks to be the 1906 (which it should considering it's the same caliber)
Yeah it's the black power one; it's towards the end
I didn't try Optical variant mostly because I'm not a fan of simple optics for self-loading rifles. I'd rather use Sniper/Marksman version.
And I can't confirm Fedorov being proper Trench variant as I said in previous post.
People are missing the big advantage of the Vetterlie. It's sweet spot is at 15-20m. It is going to be an aggressive scout weapon. Pair it with a good pistol and the right player will be a powerhouse. The only down side to it is 4 rounds.
The gun is very good up close, but at any kind of range, the recoil becomes quite intense and the damage drops off significantly. I don't think this is the best map to show what it can really do, even though the map is small and infantry focused, there is still alot of wide open spaces where other slrs would be a better choice. On maps like Argonne, amiens, vaux this gun could be very good.
Mmmmmmmmm?
I was literally just about to tag you with that quote lol
I called it didn't I
Full reload loos quick but single loading is very slow (he individually loads each round unlike the Lebel where he keeps loading as if he has all cartridges in his hand)
Look to me like the guy was catchin wreck with it.
And it can't even ohk with that sweet spot. The weapon is trash with current stats, you just have to admit it.
Man people hate on me and call me a scrub now, if this is true I will never use another weapon lmao
