—Weapon's description in Gallery

The Old Comrade is a Backup weapon introduced in the 7.1.0 update.

Description[]

The Old Comrade is a Soviet/WW2 themed pistol that shoots regular bullets. This weapon dishes out incredible damage- it can kill an unarmored player with just 2 headshots, but it is balanced out with a medium rate of fire, along with average capacity and mobility. It is about a 5 shot kill to a player with max armour.

Appearance[]

It resembles a German Mauser C96 coloured red, with a hammer and sickle above the grip, humorously referencing the soviet union.

Performance[]

This weapon shoots regular bullets with instant bullet travel time. Due to the fact that its accuracy decreases over time, it can perform best at close to medium range and is best not to shoot by spraying and praying. It also has a somewhat quiet firing sound, so it is easy to go unnoticed while using this weapon.

When reloading, the player inserts bullets from the top of the gun. It has no delay mechanics.

Strategy[]

Tips[]

  • Aim for the head at close range to maximize damage.
  • Try not to get caught up in extended battles due to the low magazine size and lengthy reload time.
  • Ambushing players with this pistol is rather easy due to the high mobility. The decent firing speed and high damage will down an unaware player with ease.

Counters[]

  • Due to its low accuracy, it is recommended to run in irregular patterns and jump around.
  • Pick off its user(s) from long ranges.
  • The Old Comrade has a long reload time coupled with a low magazine size. Once the user reloads, you can go in for the kill in safety, unless the user takes out a Primary or tertiary weapon, in which case, adjust accordingly.
  • Stay alert to avoid being ambushed. This weapon has a quiet firing sound, which means you may not notice how you're being attacked until it's too late to fight back.
  • It is generally a weak gun opposed to other automatic weapons in the game, with good coordination and tactical skills, its user(s) will be easy to counter.

Equipment Setups[]

To ease your duels, whether in long range or in close range, equip a lethal Sniper and a Heavy weapon. That way, you will be able to face players by easily picking them off from long range, and by fiercely blasting players in close range.

Trivia[]

  • The Old Comrade is based on the real-life version of the German Mauser C96 "Bolo" pistol. It is often informally referred to as the "Broomhandle" due to its grip's unique shape.
  • The Old Comrade has a yellow hammer and sickle on its red gun metal, the hammer and sickle was the crest of the USSR, or the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, a group of communist-controlled countries in Eastern Europe which made up the "Soviet Bloc". Its most powerful member was Soviet Russia.
  • Despite being a weapon made by the Germans in 1896 (Years before WW1 and during the events of the Boer War) the name and skin suggest this weapon is from the Soviet Union (A member of the Allied Powers during WW II). The Soviets actually bought a million of these but those million were then replaced by the more modern TT33 pistol.
  • In Pixel Gun World (PC Version) in the Clans Update this and the Brave Patriot were added which were no longer available in the mobile version at the time they were added into PC.
  • It is possible to make this weapon in Epic again through the current Upgrade System.
