Talk:The Stalin Subway

Trivia

Tsar cannon

It's seen during the mission inside Kremlin in the "Stalin Subway". This is the real cannon, produced by Andrei Chokhov in the 1586. It has the highest calibre among cannons - 890mm. Contrary to the many hypotheses, the carriage and rounding shot near it is actually fake - the carriage were produced only in the 1835, and rounding shots are actually hollow. This gun had to be fire a charge of small stones, but this gun was never fired and now it's only a monument. This is unusable weapon.

Tsar cannon as it standing now - 890mm.

Tsar cannon in the game from the almost the same foreshortening as a picture higher. Note on the slightly crooked pose of it on the plinth and lacking the safing chain around the gun. This shot was produced in no-clipping mode, because script don't allow the player to be nearer to the monument.

AK-74 variant

The unknown AK-74 variant can be seen in the game "Stalin Subway" menu under the moving USSR newspapers. It seen only partially - magazine and foregrip. The magazine of it show what it was produced for 5,45mm cartridges. But they began producing only since 1972 - highly anachronistic for the summer of 1952.

The AK-74 variant can be seen on the left. We can't see exactly what weapon is this, because we can't see all AK.

FORMAT

Please adjust the page to the appropriate formats. FORMAT. Sample page.: Call of Duty: World at War, Vietcong 2.--Emto (talk) 12:04, 9 July 2014 (EDT)

• The format of WHAT? The info box will be placed then. --STEN (talk) 20:25, 9 July 2014 (EDT)

The IMFDB Page Templates page exists for this reason. --Funkychinaman (talk) 21:54, 9 July 2014 (EDT)

• It seems, now the content for this page is more important. Empty page with right box is worse then full page without it. When I`ll complete this page, I`ll, o' cource, place it. Now I`m finding all eligible weapons and shooting it in the appropriate pose. --STEN (talk) 00:25, 10 July 2014 (EDT)

• I was in the long travelling from Tomsk to Baikal. Now I returned for the work on this page.

AK-74 variant WTF

AK-74 got into serial production well - only in mid 1970s. But that's only half of the problem. The other half of the problem is that the weapon itself make NO appearance in the game and the only "evidence" presented is a very blurry picture that only depict the handguard of an AK-type rifle. That's making any attemp of identifying the rifle neary impossible.
As such, I remove this section. --RussianTrooper (talk) 11:50, 12 March 2015 (EDT)

AK-47

I also want to add, that the AK-47 used in the game, is the 1953 final production model aka "Type III", which makes it anachronism for the first game (and for the second game, too, because it is very unlikely that the 1953 model immediately entered into mass use in a 1953 year). Historically, the best would be a Type I or Type II. --Slon95 (talk) 14:33, 2 February 2016 (EST)

I might add that if I get around to updating the page's text. Anytime I tend to do it, it gets undone by the page creator. Besides that, are we sure that's a SVT-38? It looks more like a standard SVT-40 to me. And it'd make more sense for it to be a SVT-40 rather than the older, less produced and more hated SVT-38. --PaperCake 16:11, 2 February 2016 (EST)

Hmm, you're right. It's really much more like the SVT-40. It probably bug of the developers with gun's name, as well as in the game STEN Mk.V incorrectly called as "STEN Mk.II". Thanks! --Slon95 (talk) 19:25, 2 February 2016 (EST)

Trivia

I don't see any reason why the above Tsar cannon and AK-74 shouldn't be on the main page. Spartan198 (talk) 09:39, 13 August 2019 (EDT)
