Revision as of 02:10, 5 October 2017

I haven't got the game (I DL'ed the demo of PSN, but it turns out I suck at modern/future RTS war games), but I'm gonna try and do a bit of house-cleaning of the page. I also used the game website as a source for a couple of new weapons I added to the article. [1] Please note that I wasn't sure if I should classify the M268 6.8mm minigun as either an M134 or an XM214. Spartan198 19:54, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

And I went by this screenshot ([2]) when determining which version of the SCAR was used. And note the M268 minigun used by the automatic rifleman (would he still be an "automatic rifleman" with a weapon like that?) in the background. Spartan198 20:05, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

The way I look at it, the M268 isn't an M134 nor an XM214. Neither one of those weapons is chambered for a 6.8MM round and has only three barrels. The M134 and XM214 both have six barrels. It can't even be argued that three of the barrels were removed similar to the M197 being a three barreled version of the M61 Vulcan, because the barrel cluster on the M268 is too tight to fit another three barrels. The weapon is a purely fictional Gatling gun, inspired by the hand held Minigun seen in films like Predator and apparently the M56 Smart Gun from Aliens.


AN-94

ok the gun used by the russian spetnaz looks more like the AN-94 then the AEK-971

It's an AK-74M with a modified muzzle break. The game lore says so and close inspection will reveal that it most resembles an AK in game. ok thanks i could not figer out what it was --Armyguy277 13:30, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

The following weapons can be seen in the video game EndWar:



Assault Rifles

FN SCAR-H

The SCAR-H chambered in 6.8x43mm appears as the "SCAR A1" and is the standard combat rifle of JSF troops. The design of it is a hybrid with the trigger unit of the prototype 1st gen model while the rest of the design is the production 3rd gen model. A similar hybrid model later appeared in Splinter Cell: Conviction. The in-game SCAR is not produced by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal, because US officials declared it to be a different design with its own patent and handed the contracts to American manufacturers. It was previously claimed on the game website that JSF Engineers used a compact carbine version called the "SCAR A1C", but in-game they instead use the standard model.

Heckler & Koch XM8

The Heckler & Koch XM8 was intended to be used by US JSF soldiers and appeared in various pieces of concept art and one of the trailers, but was replaced in gameplay by the FN SCAR-H because the developers felt it was overused. [3]. It still appears in the game via cutscenes such as the JSF faction's victory cutscene, however.

FN F2000

The FN F2000 chambered in a new 7mm NATO round is one of the standard weapons of the Enforcers Corps, called the "E3000 carbine" and also mounts a GL1 EGLM grenade launcher in-game.

FN F2000 5.56x45mm NATO

AK-74M

The AK-74M is the standard assault rifle for the Spetznaz Brigade. It is equipped with some sort of scope and can be upgraded with a GP series grenade launcher. The use of such a small round (5.45mm) is an exclusion from the Russian tendency to use superior firepower in-game. You would expect them to use 7.62mm (compare to US' 6.8mm and EF's 7mm), since they use dual 57mm cannons on IFVs, 152mm cannons on tanks and not one but two guns on their artillery, et cetera.

FAMAS

The FAMAS is issued to regular, AI controlled EU Army forces. Called the "FMS AG2" and is also said to be chambered for the 7mm round.

FAMAS F1 - 5.56x45mm

Sniper Rifles

KSVK Sniper Rifle

One of the Russian rifleman upgrades features a sniper who appears to use a KSVK sniper rifle as his weapon.

Barrett M107

The Barrett M107's direct descendant, the "M120", is used by US snipers. While the exact differences between the M120 and the M107 are unknown, both rifles are virtually identical in appearance.

Denel NTW-20

The European Federation Enforcer Corps rifle looks like a Denel NTW-20. Its penetration is inferior to the US rifle, so it is not the real Denel (which is at least 14.5).

Machine Guns

Hand-Held Minigun

A hand-held (although used by troops wearing powered exoskeletons) self-powered Gatling gun chambered in 6.8x43mm, known in-game as the M268 SAW, is used in the squad support role by JSF forces.

Airsoft handheld M134 Minigun with 'Chainsaw grip' to handle the recoil force. This variant was seen in Terminator 2: Judgement Day. This is an airsoft version which retains the half-circle attachment point for the M60 foregrip from Predator; the real T2 minigun did not have this - (fake) 7.62x51mm NATO

I'm seeing quite a bit of work was done on this one and yet it was stil deleted, so I'll just leave it for the others to decide.
