The Type 99 is a powerful weapon used by the [[Imperial Japanese Army]] during the Pacific Campaign. It is very powerful if played on [[Veteran]] or [[Hardened]] difficulty, as the Japanese soldiers are extremely accurate and can easily take down the player or even entire groups of [[Marines]] with it. It only takes 2 or 3 bullets to kill the player in Veteran mode. When playing campaign mode, soldiers wielding this weapon should be high priority targets. Initially, the Type 99 is a fairly rare find in the Pacific campaign in comparison to the Type 100 and Arisaka, however, by the time the final Japanese missions such as "[[Breaking Point]]" and "[[Blowtorch and Corkscrew]]" come around, it becomes almost as common as the [[Type 100]]. It is seen for the first time in "[[Little Resistance]]". Like the British [[Bren]] gun which it greatly resembles, it is a formidable and versatile weapon, useful against both nearby and especially long-range targets. However, like the Bren, it is relatively bulky and has a long reload time, so it's recommended to have a lighter weapon alongside for mobility.

It has a major obstruction in its sights, as the magazine takes up a large portion of the player's view, but the front sight is good at distance and allows very precise targeting.

Call of Duty: World at War

"Japanese light machine gun with a high rate of fire. Effective at medium to long range."
— Description


Campaign

The Type 99 is a powerful weapon used by the Imperial Japanese Army during the Pacific Campaign. It is very powerful if played on Veteran or Hardened difficulty, as the Japanese soldiers are extremely accurate and can easily take down the player or even entire groups of Marines with it. It only takes 2 or 3 bullets to kill the player in Veteran mode. When playing campaign mode, soldiers wielding this weapon should be high priority targets. Initially, the Type 99 is a fairly rare find in the Pacific campaign in comparison to the Type 100 and Arisaka, as not many soldiers are armed with this weapon. It is seen for the first time in "Little Resistance". Like the British Bren gun which it greatly resembles, it is a formidable and versatile weapon, useful against both nearby and especially long-range targets. However, like the Bren, it is relatively bulky and has a long reload time, so it's recommended to have a lighter weapon alongside for mobility.

The Type 99 is one of several weapons that is able to gib soldiers in single player. However, it cannot gib other players in multiplayer.

Multiplayer

The Type 99 is one of the weapons the player automatically receives when they unlock the "Create-a-Class" option, as well as being available from the "Heavy Gunner" default class. It has low recoil, good damage, and a moderate rate of fire. Although capable of providing covering fire in multiplayer, the Type 99 can easily hold its own ground. It has a major obstruction in its sights, as the magazine takes up a large portion of the player's view, but the front sight is good at distance and allows very precise targeting.

The Type 99 is the only MG featured in Call of Duty: World at War to have the Bayonet attachment. When out of ammo, the bayonet provides useful CQC prowess. However, the Type 99 has a relatively long reload, in comparison to most weapons, but quite a quick reload for an MG. The Bipod attachment gives the gun the standard benefits of being deployable, including: the lack of recoil, and increase in firepower. Note that when deployed with a Bipod, the Type 99's magazine partially obscures the crosshair's view; no other MG shares this weakness. Either of the weapon's attachments make the ADS view slightly different, as the sights are viewed from farther away.

Stopping Power is quite effective on the Type 99, allowing it to become a two hit kill at most ranges.

In Hardcore game modes, the Type 99 delivers one hit kills at any range except on players using Juggernaut and through medium cover at a fair rate of fire. Using Deep Impact and Double Tap can allow players to spray through a light cover for excellent results.

Despite the long reload and obscured ironsights, the Type 99 is an effective gun up to high levels, due to its high power.
