Re: Weekly weapons Scrap Exchange updates

This was never available in the exchange and is unlikely to ever occur in that manner.

That being said, I've been fairly vocal that all weapons in the game should be released to everyone as the game is 6 years old. There's no reason for exclusivity anymore.

All weapons would be so cool 😎

tl;dr release all guns except maybe developer ones, set the exchange to a schedule, pipe dream requests of getting developer guns, a final weapon balancing, mortar truck camping fix...

I mean all weapons. If I were a manager at EA, I'd like to reduce costs on old titles while keeping my customers happy. Here's what I what do:

1) Set the scrap exchange to a DAILY rotating schedule. Ideally game mode of the week would be rotating as well. This would reduce costs of a programmer updating it each week, and reduce dissatisfaction among fans because the schedule would simply rotate through in an orderly, scheduled fashion rather than in a random or reactionary way.

2) Release all BFV preorder guns: M1919 SMG, Fedorov-Degtyarev, BAR M1918A2, Mosin-Nagant M38 Carbine, M1911A1) All special event weapons: (Barbed Wire Bat, Coupe Coupe, Arditi Dagger, Arerebo) and the M1911 Doughboy (This SHOULD be released since the redemption process doesn't exist for ONLY console users!) I would love if the Developer weapons (C96 Export, Howdah Pistol Sweeper) were released as well, but that's a longshot IMO.

I think this would resolve 90% of the problems that are presented on the EA Answers BF1 page from what I've seen.

Additional Pipe Dreams that likely won't happen:

1) A final weapon balancing: Reduce rate of fire on the SMG 08/18 to 600RPM to machine the LMG 08/18 rate of fire. This would balance this vastly overpowered weapon. Add glint to telescopic LMG's, decrease reload time of the RSC SMG by 1s, M1906 Selb by 0.75, the M1912 MaschinePistole by 0.5. Alternatively, the RSC SMG could get a damage but inside 11m to be a 2 shot kill to match the RSC1917 medic SLR. Mini grenade needs to return to a count of 2, the thing is basically never used except as a troll weapon now because it simply can't be used except as a finisher, but the impact grenade is a significantly better choice in that role. Reduce the number of bombs the Ilya-Muromets carries by 1. There are lot more suggestions I have to fix some of the overpowered weapons in the game as they make half the other weapons in the game irrelevant, and it reduces fun in gameplay as 80% of all assaults use the SMG08, which wasn't even a real gun. I'm sure some people will disagree with this sentiment.

2) Eliminate mortar truck spawns from any sector in operations where the enemy cannot spawn an airplane. Mortar trucks are only good for farming kills, deprive the attacking team of a spawn point, increase firepower, & objective push. We should at least have some way to combat them at all times, since they camp so far out of bounds and literally are impossible to kill (obviously not balanced). These locations are Suez, Amiens, Ballroom Sector 1, Sinai Desert last sector, St. Quentin 1st sector... The list goes on. Obviously we shouldn't get rid of the mortar truck because people do use it (Not sure how much fun staring at a mini map is way out of bounds for an hour and half is) but it should still be allowed but the enemy team deserves some form of recourse.

Sorry about the long response.

Yes. As He said!

@EA_Atic 

I would love to see MG15 Na "Konig" skin or Chauchat "Le Flambeau" in exchange menu 

@EA_Atic  

Can We please have the Ribeyrolls M1918 in the exchange?

@EA_Atic 

Thank you for the King Nicholas 😍

Exchange is currently completely empty. They must be working on it.

The person updating the Exchange must have spilled their coffee on the keyboard, LOL. 🙌

Keep the this thread updated, I’m off to the dentist to get tortured.

According to Reddit, this week's exchange includes:

M1907 SL

M1897 Shotgun

Grappling Hook

Landship

@mrtnm1994117another week of skins I already have...

What does someone needs to do to get the sjogren 😢

The 1897 had to be 2 months ago 

This seems deliberate now 

This game is on its last breathes 

weekly scrap exchange update

I created a more spectacular calculation for Sjögren Inertial Shotgun.
2022.03.20.
self-loading rifles Winchester Model 1907 and shotguns Winchester Model 1897
What is the probability of the "Winchester" week (both selected guns are manufactured by Winchester)?

The "Winchester" set has only 3 elements: M1907 Selfloading, M1897 Shotgun, Russian 1895.

The "International" set has 69 elements: Model 1900, Model 10, M1897 Shotgun, Sjögren Inertial Shotgun, 12G automatic, Ribeyrolles 1918 Carbine, Hellriegel 1915, SMG 08/18, Annihilator, MP18, Automatico M1918, RSC SMG, M1917 Trench Carbine, Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16, Farquhar-Hill, Mondragon, RSC 1917, Selbstlader M1916, General Liu, Howell Automatic, M1907 Selfloading, Fedorov Avtomat, Cei-Rigotti, Model 8 Autoloading, Selbstlader 1906, Chauchat, Parabellum MG14/17, Lewis gun, LMG 08/18, M1917 MG, MG15 N.A, BAR M1918, Madsen MG, Perino Model 1908, Huot Automatic Rifle, M1909 Benet Mercie, Lebel Model 1886, Mosin-Nagant M91, SMLE MKIII, Martini Henry, Ross MKIII, Gewehr M.95, M1903, Vetterli-Vitali M1870/87, M1917 Enfield, Gewehr 98, Type 38 Arisaka, Russian 1895, Carcano M91 Carbine, P08 Pistol, British Bulldog, Frommer Stop, Auto revolver, Nagant Revolver, Mars Automatic Pistol, 1903 Hammerless, C-93 Pistol, Repetierpistole M1912, Revolver MK VI, C96 Pistol, M1911 Pistol, NO. 3 Revolver, Howdah pistol, MLE 1903 pistol, Bodeo 1889 Revolver, Modello 1915 Pistol, Obrez pistol, M1914 Taschenpistol, Kolibri pistol, Gasser M1870 Revolver.

If the set has n elements, the number of k-combinations, denoted by C(n, k) is equal to n! / (k! (n-k)! ).
The "Winchester" set has 3 elements, the number of 2-combinations, denoted by Winchester(3, 2) is equal to 3! / (2! 1! ) = 3.
By name the first possible pair is M1907 Selfloading - M1897 Shotgun (THIS WEEK), the second possible pair is M1907 Selfloading - Russian 1895, and third possible pair is M1897 Shotgun - Russian 1895.
The "International" set has 69 elements, the number of 2-combinations, denoted by International(69, 2) is equal to 69! / (2! 67! ) = 2346.

The probability of the "Winchester" week is equal to Winchester(3, 2) / International(69, 2) = 3 / 2346 = 0.00127877237
And the probability of the "Sjögren Inertial Shotgun" week is equal to NoSjögren(68, 1) / International(69, 2) = 68 / 2346 = 0.02898550724

The probability of the "Sjögren Inertial Shotgun" week is TWENTY-TWO times the probability of the "Winchester" week (68 / 3 = 22.6666666667).

I wonder why the Landship appeared in the weekly scrap exchange after a year?
