Vietnam Weapons
All weapons are separated into certain kits. Each kit has it’s own specialization, whether it’s destroying/repairing vehicles, healing teammates, or scouting enemies. When choosing the perfect gun that suits you, you must choose the right type of stats. In this section I give the statistics on each weapon. There are 4 stats you must know when choosing the right weapon:
Damage
Each gun does a set amount of damage per bullet. Each person has 100 health of course. I list the damage which varies at distance. Distance will be explained more in the next stat. All weapons do 2.1x Damage to the head, with the exception of the M40 Sniper Rifle which does 3.25x Damage to the head, and the 870 shotgun which does 2x Damage. Explosives give a certain amount of damage to vehicles which is different than the amount of damage to people. Regular bullets do not affect vehicles.
Range
As you may have noticed, there are two values for weapon damage. This is because weapon damage is lowered at long range as opposed to close range. Let’s take the M16’s stats for example. The M16 does 13 to 18 damage and has an 18 to 64 meter range. This means that the M16 will do 18 damage per bullet at point blank range up to 18 meters. After 18 meters, the damage will lower all the way down to 13 damage per bullet at 64 meters. The weapon can reach past 64 meters, but the weapon’s damage will not lower any more.
Fire Mode
Each weapon has a certain fire mode that cannot be changed like most of their real life counter parts. This game features Semi Automatic, Fully Automatic, Bolt-Action, Pump-Action, and Single Shot weapons.
Semi Automatic weapons are the weapons that fire one round each time you squeeze the trigger. They are usually more accurate at longer range as opposed to fully automatic weapons.
Fully Automatic weapons are the weapons that fire multiple bullets while holding down the trigger. Full Auto weapons are best as close to medium range. They are not always the most accurate, but you can put a lot of bullets on an enemy in a short amount of time.
Bolt-Action and Pump-Action weapons are the weapons that fire one shot each time you squeeze the trigger, followed by a certain action – bolt or pump – on the weapon to get the next round ready to fire.
Single Shot weapons are the weapons that allow you to take one shot and reload. You will have to reload after every single shot taken.
Rate of Fire
The last stat is the rate of fire. Each weapon has a certain rate of fire that allows you to put a certain amount of bullets on your target. This amount is measured in rounds per minute, or RPM. There is nothing you can do about fully automatic weapon’s rate of fire since it’s set. Semi Automatic weapon’s rate of fire can vary depending on how fast you pull the trigger. However, even semi automatic weapon’s have a RPM limit that it cannot exceed.
