LukeFF Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Just a little nitpick here, but nonetheless something I noticed: Currently, German soldiers carry their K98 on the shoulder as if the sling attachments are on the underside of the stock. In actuality, the rifle's sling attachments are mounted on the left-hand side of the rifle. As such, the K98 model needs to be rotated 90 degrees so that the left-hand side is flush with the soldier's back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFF Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Bah, this is still not shown correctly in the CW update. Battlefront, please rotate the 3D model for this rifle in the next update. It just does not look correct right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostRider3/3 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Bah, this is still not shown correctly in the CW update. Battlefront, please rotate the 3D model for this rifle in the next update. It just does not look correct right now. Also I know its another nit pick thing... but the Germans did not run with their rifles in both hands... they had it in one hand so when they hit the dirt, they did so in a flat prone position. I understand that all the troops animations are the same, it would have been really cool to see just little differences.. but Iam just happy CW is out now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFF Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 Yes, and while we're at it, the 3D model of the K98 features a straight-ish bolt handle instead of the correct turned-down bolt handle. This makes it look a bit like a Yugoslavian M48. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
