In gameplay I saw a ADS view of a gun with hk battlesights, maybe a 416 variant?

As far as AR-type weapons go there is a 416, M4, and M16. There is also an M4 shorty, the one held by the female (Gender selection?) resistance fighter, but we don't know whether it will be a seperate weapon or if you can change out barrels/stocks. Oh and the note about the M16 being single shot only bothers me a bit. It seems likely its supposed to be a DMR-type weapon in game, and except for a few, most games don't have fire selecting, so it doesn't really mean the 16 is single shot "only", the soliders are simply being smart and using a long(er) range weapon on semi. Also, H&K battlesights are awesome. :D Alex T Snow 11:50, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

EDIT: The shorty M4 and the 416 are one and the same, look at the unique rail cover colour pattern, short barrel in first person, edge of the stock visible in first person, and continuing top rail, and ambi fire selector, among other things. Alex T Snow 11:56, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Quick question though, why do the KPA troops use western weapons and equipment?

One of two reasons, the video was made using all MP footage, and we don't know how the weapons how the weapons work there, COD style, BF style, or something else, OR it has something to do with the developers saying in the story video about how the N Koreans trained on American weapons. Alex T Snow 21:39, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

I thought one of the story trailer said that the North Koreans started to train their military based off of America and started using their weapons. It could be possible on an invasion standpoint to use captured American weapons and ammo. Excalibur01 22:04, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

There's a tie-in novel, "The Voice of Freedom", that goes into pretty good detail about how the Greater Korean Republic came to power, including that Kim Jong-un acquired American technologies and weapons that had only been sold to South Korea when the two countries unified. This covered everything from gunships to tanks to Humvees to small arms. It also covers that the GKR armed forces began to train in U.S. battle doctrine to prepare for the invasion.

Really?

In one of the caps there is a guy called Connor. Fine. But he's a resistance fighter! Terminator much?

So... What's the problem? --RaNgeR 18:11, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Terminator invented the name Connor?

It's only a random character name in-game. Just because this game involves American resistance fighters and one of them is called "Connor", it doesn't mean it connects somehow to the Terminator series. --RaNgeR 11:28, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

I have to disagree, i made the edit for the name, and after watching a Homefront vi-doc it was revealed that Connor is a former U.S. Soldier who has a deep seated hatred and grudge for the Koreans. Coincidence most likely that the Terminator series has a similar character. - Doc345

It's most likely just a homage to John Connor. The idea of an American fighting a powerful enemy in a resistances group setting Excalibur01 04:21, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

unknown drone weapon

is it just me or does the unknown drone weapon resemble a M242 Bushmaster chaingun --Armyguy277 19:54, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

It's hard to tell. The weapon in-game is larger than the M242. --RaNgeR 11:28, 12 January 2011 (UTC)


Not an ACR

Looking closer at the FPS image of the "ACR" the charging handle is too far back. The early prototype Masada had the charging handle closer to the shooter, but they moved it forward in the ACR model. Excalibur01 04:19, 27 January 2011 (UTC)


HK416 is PWS Diablo?

They look too similar for them to be completely separate weapons, also in this youtube video HK416 isn't in the weapon list, only the PWS Diablo.
