Hchris, | |||
You were told about putting the page in the correct format that what is on there now is not. Please refer to the [[Rules, Standards and Principles]] page for some details. The agreed upon format is that weapons are hyperlinked below in the description of the weapon. Also, putting the screenshots on the right is also not the proper format as well. A lot of pages (especially the videogame pages) need to be corrected of this and should not be followed. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 20:21, 1 May 2011 (CDT) | |||

I can understand the other modifications, but the combination of the French and British armes just doesn't make sense. Next time you change something please at least play the game first. -- hchris | |||

Actally PistolJunkie is right, this site is about what guns are used in which movie/tv show/anime/video game, etc. This is not a "Who used what gun" site (Actor Pages don't count), the majority of the people who will read the WWIIO:BE page are going to be more concerned with "what gun is ______".

The current format is fine. Whether or not you want it divided by faction or by firearm type, the page is sectioned well and is easy to navigate for anyone who uses it. There's no need to argue over technicalities when it works fine the way it is. [[User:Chitoryu12|Chitoryu12]] 08:28, 16 April 2012 (CDT) | |||

: This is because the game starts at 1940 (Tier 0). Each campaign progresses through the different Tiers (currently 0-3).

Realism is taken to a new level in this WWII MMO. The weapons and vehicles are modeled utilizing historical data after hundreds of hours of research.
The advanced physics and ballistics systems create a military-grade simulation. The game is a constant work in progress meaning it is always in development and new features, updates, weapons and vehicles get added over time.

There are 3 Nations featured in the game, Germany, United Kingdom and France.
The infantry weapons can be used while standing, crouching and in prone position. All weapons have to be aimed with their 3D modelled iron sights, there is no cross hair. You can fire them unaimed too, but you will have a hard time hitting anything except with sub machine guns at close range.
Heavier weapons like the anti tank rifles and light machine guns can be deployed using their mono and bipods at geometry in the 3D world and also while prone. This will make them a lot more accurate.
Light mortars can only be used in deployed mode while prone.
This list only shows the infantry portion of the game, there are also about 90 vehicles of different types (air, land and sea).
Currently the game features the following infantry classes:
Rifleman
Submachine Gunner
Grenadier
British Anti-Tank Rifle
Sapper
Light Machine Gunner
Sniper
Mortarman
Each class has its own weapon loadout. This is also resembled on the third person avatars which all have different fieldgear and equipment according to the weapons they wield. There are also paratrooper models for each nation, they have different loadouts than the standard infantry classes but use the same weapons.
Please keep in mind that all screenshots are compressed for file size reduction. Some game content is still work in progress, screenshots on this website will get updated regularly. The HUD (heads up display) was disabled for those screenshots to get a better view.
British Combat knife
French Combat knife
German Combat knife
Other
Technically not weapons, but usable items for several infantry classes, available for all 3 nations:
Shovel
(used to build AT gun emplacements, field resupply units or fighting positions)
Ammo box
(used to resupply other players with ammo)
