The MK47 stats according to the release video - these aren't correct.





So we already know the 780m/s is incorrect in the video, but why would my DPS be different? We both agree that it does 49 damage and shoots once every 0.1 seconds. So a super simple 10 shots per second * 49 damage per shot = 490 damage per second. I also checked the game files again just to make sure they didn't accidentally give it the Beryl's 47 damage, and it looks correct:

So the spreadsheet seems to be correct: the Mutant has the same bullet speed as the AKM and other 7.62 weapons despite what the official video says, and apparently they aren't great at DPS math.





Keep leaving comments on the Weapon Stats spreadsheet if anything else seems amiss, it gives me a chance to fix any issues and test them in game.

I was confused because the official PUBG video announcing the MK47 Mutant says that it has 780 m/s muzzle velocity while the AKM and other 7.62 weapons only have 715 m/s - supposedly making it more effective at range. But while going through the game files to add it to the PUBG Weapon Stats spreadsheet , I noticed that it only has 715 m/s; the same as all the other 7.62 weapons.So I tested it in game as you can see here, it has the exact same bullet speed as the AKM: literally the same number of frames between firing and hitting the target. I think they inadvertently put the Mutant in with the same muzzle velocity as the other 7.62 weapons, which takes away its one niche of being a "mid range" 7.62 weapon.I took this short shooting range test video and opened it in Premier. As you can see on timeline below, I added markers to the exact frame that I shot, and to the exact frame that the target is exactly horizontal after being hit. With both the AKM and the MK47 Mutant, it took exactly 1 second and 1 frame between the two markers - showing that these bullets are travelling at the same speed, and certainly not 9.09% faster (780/715). In Premier, 3:18 means the 18th frame after the 3rd second, so 4:19 is one second and 1 frame later (for the AKM shot time), just as 11:10 is one second and one frame later than 10:09 (for the Mutant shot time).There's another piece of funny business in the MK47 release video, which I realized after an anonymous comment on the Weapon Stats spreadsheet which had me looking into the gun today:
