in COD "Conversion Kits" are just hand waivium for replacing that weapon in it's designated slot with some other loosely related version of it. They are not expecting us to believe anyone is slapping some kit on a RPK to turn it into the JAK Cataclysm. You REPLACE the RPK with the JAK cataclysm which will just happen to look like it was made to be a beefcake version of the gun it was "Converted" from. They do this with MANY guns in the game using the "Conversion Kit" mechanic to basically completely replace them with something else loosely based on it but filling a totally different role.

In that same realm of argument, video games are the only media where this is somehow considered a taboo subject to do. Use a real item in a scene within the story of a book? Fine.

[@iterationfackshet1990]

No, they do it to avoid frivolous lawsuits. They aren’t copying a gun to sell irl, so it falls under artistic license. They just change the name because those names are trademarked and companies like to throw pissy fits especially if their product is shown as bad. That’s why cars in movies have their logos and shit removed and if they do have all of that there it’s shown positively.

[@thatguy1080]

No, it's Californian law. The game is rated M for mature, which contrary to popular belief, does NOT mean "above the age of 18". And seeing as how the game is produced in the state of California, it is subject to a law that says that real firearms cannot be advertised or marketed to minors (people who are 17 or younger). So they're not just changing up all the guns to avoid copyright claims, they're also doing it because it's illegal for them to have accurate or realistic firearms in their game because that would be considered advertising real guns to minors.

Saying “It is my gun.” In the context of a fire arm you designed and it’s in a popular video game sounds like something Eugene Stoner would say.

[@DynamicDurge]

Imagine if Eugune Stoner lived long enough to sue Call of Duty for using the M16 in their games. People would roll their eyes.

[@glandhound]

Stoner didn't design the M-16 since it's a military designation. Stoner's design (AR-10, scaled down to AR-15) had a specific type of a bolt and required a specific type of a gunpowder and it worked flawlessly. The M-16 was made by cutting corners, with cheap bolts and the standard ball had really bad gunpowder which is the reason for the unreliability problems and why it needed a forward assist.

[@davidryke113]

Him chasing after the Gold skin one was priceless "Give me back my gun" 😂.

[@DawidKov]

@@glandhound It didn't need a forward assist, and Stoner straight up said so several times. Direct quote: "Reasoning was that every rifle that had ever been used in the United States Army always had something that you could pound on or beat on or something to help it along in case if was not functioning properly [...] I really didn't feel that was necessary, I questioned quite a bit on what their justification really was, and what experience they had that would show that it'd help. And they had a hard time coming up with anything that showed a justification, except to please the Chief of Staff of the Army" The fouling with the standard ammo _was_ an issue, which is why they replaced the bolt-piston impingement system with a short-stroke. But simple logic - if you've got too much fouling and the bolt cannot lock, then forcing it forward will only cause it to get jammed even more thoroughly, giving you maybe a single shot off before the system fully locks up. Only way to really help there would've been looser tolerances (like on the AK, for example), but even then there will be a critical point at which the fouling is too much (practical experience shows that on the AK it's mostly affecting the firing pin though).

I make AAA shooters for a living, it's literally my specialty and has been for 10 years. Your "likely scenario" is pretty much spot on. One artist is watching your channel, saw the AK50, though "Damn that's cool as fuck, I want it in the game.", went through all the models they had and planned the most efficient way to recycle something to make it in the game, hence it looking more like an RPK than your gun (top cover for example, they probably didn't have the bandwidth to model the whole back of the COD gun like your AK) Nothing nefarious, just a fan that wanted an AK50 in his game after watching your stuff and that was the most efficient way to produce it. And for people who were telling you to sue: I deal with the legal side of all this all the time and it's impossible in this case. Change one part of the gun, the name and put fake markings on it and you're good to go. The COD version is too far removed and you'd get your case thrown out the same day you file it.

[@thestig007]

COD has been outted for stealing several designs and assets over the last few years. They usually *slightly* alter it to make a lawsuit not worthwhile, but it's crazy how often it's happened, and never bother to mention or ask the original artist they copied from. I remember a few times where some character model designs were taken straight from the internet, like the Samoyed character skin, and an "anime-inspired" pack that was full of near-direct rips of several vtuber designs and logos. All copyrighted stuff that is owned by individuals or small companies who can't afford to take legal action. It's cool that you're not bothered, but I figured I'd point this out, regardless. They should have at least messaged you beforehand, in my opinion.
