Talk:Day of Infamy

Hello, I think it would be great if you could add a new page for the Einstossflammenwerfer 46 please? --Hchris (talk) 15:11, 29 December 2016 (EST)

-Will do, but I'll see what I can do since it's not too well known! OngYingGao (talk) 02:10, 1 January 2017 (EST)

Release Date

Which release date is official one (to be featured on this page and all related weapon pages) - Early Access (June 26, 2016) or Release (March 23, 2017)? Terramax (talk) 10:45, 27 March 2017 (EDT)

Official. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:59, 27 March 2017 (EDT)

M3/M3A1 Grease Gun

It appears that the in game model of the Grease Gun is of the older M3 variant, while the third person model and the menu image for the gun are the newer M3A1 model, any thoughts on adding that to the page? ~ ADMICK

Huh, when I spoke to the devs it appears that the M3A1 was never in the game at all, rather it was but an M3 without a charging handle. VGUI image resembles the viewmodel too. OngYingGao (talk) 09:54, 18 April 2017 (EDT)

Does this mod for a mod warrant a page by itself? (It's got a lot of postwar weaponry with some WWII favorites) --MJ79 (talk) 20:26, 26 May 2017 (EDT)

I wouldn't particularly recommend it. INS2's page had DOI in it, but DOI was a mod made by the devs themselves. BTK on the other hand is an independent project by community members with little developer involvement (despite some developers like RedRogueXIII volunteering. I have a feeling it may go against the rules honestly. --OngYingGao (talk) 01:48, 27 May 2017 (EDT)

Ejecting rounds out of a C96

The next update for Day of Infamy will introduce a new partial reload animation for the Mauser C96, where the player pulls the bolt back and locks it, and any unspent cartridges fly out of the ejection port so the player can load a new stripper clip. Is that something possible?  ::--OngYingGao (talk) 00:47, 11 June 2017 (EDT)

No, it is not possible. The C96 would be unable to do that, as there are metal "lips" preventing the rounds in the double-stacked magazine from being ejected. The only way rounds can enter or exit is via a single feed. --SpectralNova (talk) 08:27, 15 June 2017 (EDT)

Out of curiosity, does the C96 have a manual bolt hold-open, and if so, where is it? Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 16:14, 15 June 2017 (EDT)

There is no way to manually lock the bolt back on a C96. The magazine follower functions as the bolt hold-open, and will only do so when the magazine is empty. --SpectralNova (talk) 16:48, 15 June 2017 (EDT)

So, to reload a partially empty C96, you'd either have to manually cycle the bolt repeatedly to empty it, then insert a stripper clip/individual rounds, or insert individual rounds with one hand while bracing the bolt open with the other? Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 17:09, 15 June 2017 (EDT)

If you wanted to reload it before it was empty, you'd either have to hold the bolt open manually, or empty the mag first. Theoretically, you could use an empty stripper clip to hold the bolt back, but generally speaking, you just didn't reload the C96 until it was empty. Its a design oversight, but keep in mind, it was one of the first automatic pistols, and at the time there wasn't a set "guideline" as to what features should be in an automatic pistol. Also, the need to reload in the middle of a magazine just wasn't seen as necessary for a handgun at the time. --SpectralNova (talk) 18:52, 15 June 2017 (EDT)

Not really an oversight as much as it's a gameplay decision specifically to test the gameplay vs realism part to the limits I guess. Thanks, would look out for it in the next patch.

Gotcha. Thanks for the info! Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 20:04, 15 June 2017 (EDT)
