I didn't see the VZ 61

First, thanks for the great update, love all the new contents. However, there's several minor issues I have found so far.
1: All 1928 variants and MPU don't have fire selector animation.
2: M1A1 Thompson's fire rate is way too high, which also causes the gun pretty uncontrollable (the fire rate should be capped around 600 or 700 per min and slower than the 1928 variants)
Thank you.

Thanks for that - passed on to our weapons master helion4

Awesome update. Will there be plans for a single-player campaign?

Further notes on the Tommy Guns:
Thompson SMGs have a bolt hold open device of some sort, meaning the bolt is always back, even when the gun is empty. So the reload animation shouldn't have a bolt manipulation, just changing magazines.

Hi, the new thing is great. I'd like to ask a few questions about the Chinese translation. I apologise that I may have used some Chinese to illustrate the translation errors visually.

Khe Sanh Terrain.
It seems to have been phonetically translated. In China, it is more commonly referred to as 溪山 rather than 溪生.
Static Weapon Type 56 75mm Recoilless Rifle.
The Chinese translation directly translates as a recoilless rifle, and in fact the 75mm calibre rifle is customarily referred to as a gun in Chinese.
Facewear Face mask - SEAL (diver)
In Chinese it translates as a mouthpiece, but its function is to protect the whole face, not just the mouth. It would be better translated as 面罩

Changelog looks great. Can someone gimme an idea of the dl size when switching to RC branch? I'm on a limited transfer connection, so even though I'd love to check the changes, I don't want to eat up my internets! 😃

Is this just the Mike Force subscribed game, or the DLC as well?

Few issues with ammo weights:

Every single Thompson magazine weighs the same: 50rd drums weigh as much as 20rd magazines weigh as much as 30rd magazines.
Stoner 63 LMG ammo weighs the same: 150rd drums weigh as much as 100rd boxes.
On that topic, LMG ammo is still a bit off. RPD ammo is heavier to carry than M60 ammo (400 RPD for every 500 M60) when it should be somewhat lighter, and M60 ammo weighs significantly less than PK ammo (500 rounds M60 for every 300 PK) for some reason despite being broadly similar. This could probably all be fixed by making M60 belts as heavy as PK belts.
20rd .32 caliber Vz.61 magazines weigh as much as, say, 32rd 9mm Sten magazines despite being 2/3 as many bullets and a lighter round.

On the topic of the Vz.61, the sidearm version of it has a peculiar lack of recoil, especially on full-auto when compared to the M712. While I get that the M712 is substantially more gun than the Vz.61, it feels like the sidearm Vz.61 has the same amount of recoil as the primary-weapon version, despite the sidearm version lacking a stock.

Awesome update though!

hi guys

Thanks for your feedback!
This thread is for discussion more than reporting - I'veamended the first post to reflect that.

Please use our bug-reporting tickets to send this really helpful information you have posted, or it may be overlooked.
https://community.sogpf.com/threads/44-Bug-reporting

Once your ticket is created our QA manager will assign it to the relevant team member.

Server stuff is best discussed in our discord.
RC branch is kind of a soft launch, we'll have a lot of servers updated and ready for release day.

The post about future content - we are not allowed to discuss it, apologies!

Keep going - this is all great feedback.

Gameplay changes

Changes

Changed: Campaign Enable saving in coop missions in "multiplayer solo mode"

Love it. Thanks 😀 😘

Khe Sanh map is beautiful, thank you!

Suggestion: Lower the 3 docks for the water market (those 3 long docks decorated with market stalls). If lowered to about a meter above seal level then its possible for player or AI to exit a boat directly on to the dock. The way it is now you have to swim to a ladder to get on the docks. Thanks for listening! I don't have RC loaded any longer, so can't give you the coordinates, sry.

+1 to that.

Plus a suggestion for a gameplay:
I know, SOGPF doesn't have a transport plane (yet), but there are a bunch of available addons with VIV capability to be utilized in a NAM scenarios, eg. C-130s from UNS or Sab. It would be great to have "VehicleTransport" class added to all land vehicles as well as PhysX'd supply crates (if you have them). Since you've got three airstrips in the map, transporting goods between them in a cargo plane immediately comes to mind.

Anyway, thank you to all involved for this great, freeware update with a lot of additional content. Especially the map is such a wonderful surprise! I like the civy cars too, they'll come in handy for sure.
