I think that's what really makes Jonathan so lovable and entertaining, he's got a healthy sense of when to be serious, educational, and critical in a positive way, but doesn't seem to get caught up in it so much that he can't let himself enjoy the creativity and silliness video games have to offer.

They plug the royal armory every episode. I think the work that Gamespot does gathering clips and choosing the game and gauging interest (Also the guy who does the gameplay explains important gaming things to him) more than justifies their existence. I've been watching these since they came out and the earliest ones definitely had a problem with Jonathan being too nit-picky and not understanding game play necessity as well. Over time, Jonathan has greatly improved and now acknowledges game play needs and I think that comes down to Gamespot talking with him and explain how important game balance is. He also stay away from nitpicking and now is all about explaining the main points of the firearm and he does great with fictional firearms trying to figure out how they could work. I do not think Jonathan could do this on his own. I think he needs Gamespot here to direct his attention.

Years ago, I knew a guy in college that was a Viet Nam vet. He told the story of seeing someone hit with a 40mm (from an M79) within arming range when his group was ambushed... he said it left a 40mm-sized dent in the chest, that dropped the guy immediately. Second hand story, but I don't think I'd want to see it in action.

[@igorthelight]

So it's like being hit with a hammer. Very hard!

[@MaskedDeath_]

I've tried to put this in perspective. According to what I've found, the M79 had a muzzle velocity of 76m/s (250ft/s), and most of the grenades had a weight of about 0.23kg (0.5lbs). Not a lot of mass (about a quarter as heavy as a rock you could reasonably throw), but the speed is about twice that of a professional athlete's throw. Yeah, I don't think I'd want to get hit by that either.

[@MysticTheDarkElf]

Seeing this and being reminded of Killing Floor 2, we definitely need more footage of it. Especially showcasing the difference between standard reloads and Perk reloads, as they are what the game refers to as "tactical reloads", which are quicker(Definitely best shown in Zed Time). Stuff like the HZ12(double-barreled pump-action shotgun), Jonathan's favorite rifle the Mkb.42, and showcasing the mainline Medic guns, how they are all based on the same chassis. And why not the MGL as well, to compare to Tarkov's depiction?

[@stevenbobbybills]

The MKb. 42(H) is one of the various prototypes preceeding the StG 44, so it's not quite the same model but it's in the family tree. Fun fact, the MKb. 42(H) fires from an open bolt, unlike the closed-bolt Sturmgewehr 44!

[@theblobconsumes4859]

Not to mention the way guns shake around in slow-mo (Zed Time), and small details like the shaking of the EOTech on the UMP. So many small details on those guns, they really deserve better showcases.

[@robloxpwnr7604]

Killing Floor 1 gave me hundreds of hours of entertainment, the different classes and weapons that came with it offered so much opportunity. Is the second good? I still haven’t tried it

[@davidpereira5969]

Yeah some of the newer dlc weapons are kinda of a flop (except G36C, it looks prety good) but the real weapons there are very good. The tactical reload is actualy a diferent animation made by someone with experience, not just a speed up version, and in zed time the game is slowed down to 20% and you can see the mechanisms moving and whatnot. Some explosives also have the safety feature of having minimum travel range to explode

[@plushiepenguin]

I really wish they could've shown Johnathan the insanity possible with Doom Eternal's Meathook. The movement possible with that hook is so satisfying.

[@jonathanferguson1211]

Oh, I've seen it. I can't *do* it, but I've seen it :)

[@DuckAllMighty]

This is one of the best series, bc he's so knowledgeable about firearms in reality and also acknowledges that you sometimes have to change how a gun handles or works in a game, to make it fun. And check out Stalker Anomaly's weapons, that's where Escape From Tarkov got most of their inspiration from of realistic weapon handling and grenade explosions and fragmentation.

[@supahvaporeon]

The Pulverizer might be a homage to a special driving hammer some people use in concrete construction. It helps assist the user to get one big strike starting strike to hammer rebar into concrete foundations in areas where you cant get a dedicated piledriver machine/attachment. You'd usually use massive 50cal nailing hammer blanks embedded into a sledgehammer.

[@yetanother9127]

There's actually a commonplace builder's tool called a ramset, which does exactly that job. It's basically a handheld piston thing that you load with little .22 blanks and then strike with a hammer to fire; it's meant for driving nails into concrete or the like, where an ordinary hammer won't cut it.

Correction on the gytojet: the hammer striking the tip doesn't set off the motor it pushes the bullet back into a strike pin which is what sets it off, the safety is just a bit of metal that separates the rocket and the pin so it won't ignite, the hammer will still strike the rocket but not ignite it.

[@Alekontilt120]

One of my favorite quirks of firearm modeling in games are the aftermarket sights on the p90. This goes way back to p90s first major depiction in shooters, COD4, where rather than the actual iron sights of a p90, the game has these HK looking sights. Part of this is likely due to the p90,s irons being small and not very clear, which wouldn’t lend itself to conducive target acquisition in games, but the fact that the dual ambidextrous sights aren’t modeled leads me to believe that most game modelers work off of airsoft designs, which are the first ones that pop up when you Google “P90” and also nearly never have the actual iron sights

[@filanfyretracker]

also a lot easier to get airsoft guns if you need an in studio example. As for the small sights yeah hard to do in a game, Especially because extremely small things can disappear at lower game settings. And looking at Steam Stats the most common GPU was a GTX 1650 and a display resolution of 1080p

The C96 reload really is impressive not just because its actually possible (probably) but because the game devs actually cared to come up with it. They could have just dropped the guns offscreen and reloaded but no they thought up and animated a whole process.

[@DJCatmom]

Just a quick note on the second gun, which is the 300mm Stormcannon from Foxhole. You are absolutely right that this is an artillery piece that is well above the range of the game map. In Foxhole, we used those to sling shells to the OTHER map, which is on another server entirely. The gun requires extensive building and support, as well as manual re-loading by the loader in the bunker below, where ammo is also stored. Of course as with any artillery piece in Foxhole, for any effective fire you require a spotter and have to take wind into account - more than usual due to this gun's enormous range.

[@a_smiling_gamer9063]

One time, my cousin was showing me some of his more unusual cartridges he had. He was showing us a 40mm chalk practice round he had "acquired" and accidentally dropped it on his concrete garage floor and it cracked open, spilling chalk. I have since found out that 40mm chalk rounds are obtainable complete or as kits, but they have to be shipped without the .38 Short Colt blank cartridge they use as the charge because once that's installed, they're considered Destructive Devices by the ATF, treated the same as binary explosives (Tannerite). The chalk rounds are filled with carpenter's chalk line chalk or mini glowsticks for "tracer" rounds after dark. (You break them before you put them in the shell and glue it on with CA glue) 37mm grenade launchers are completely unregulated in the US. I've also found out that 40mm grenade launchers are regulated as "firearms" the same area as non-handgun shotguns, they themselves are not Destructive Devices. A couple of years ago the company that had the contract to make MLKOR grenade launchers for the US Marines had some refurbished ones for sale to the general public for $12,000 or more. Just like the USMC issued 1911's that Colt replaced and sold at auction some time ago, they had been replaced by brand new units and inspected and refurbished and sold as "genuine, battle used" collector's pieces. Kind of an expensive toy for chalk rounds, since you would have to have a Destructive Device license and pay a $200 tax on each real 40mm grenade you wanted to shoot. Ka-Ching! :)

A few things for next year I’d like to see: Get The Jonathan to play VR games so he can understand why VR weapons work the way they do. His commentary is useful because he’s played video games and understands the need for balance. Getting him to feel how awkward it is to use two handed weapons in VR and see why so many games “suction” the magazine in I think would make his commentary better. I’d also like to see him review the guns of Half-Life, especially the guns of Alyx, as you get some really weird/unique expanded magazine upgrades in that game. I’d also like to see him review Depth. Underwater combat isn’t something he talks about often, but seeing the unique weapons in there would be a nice change of pace from the same AR and AK over and over again.

Awhile back, an Australian inventor invented the Metalstorm weapon system. It didn't go anywhere. The idea is you have multiple barrels and multiple rounds in each barrel that were electronically ignited. It could fire up to 1 million rpm if all the rounds were ignited nearly simultaneously. They developed a concept handgun that was supposed to be a "smart gun" with safety measures for police. The policeman would wear a wristwatch or a ring that was coded to the gun. The gun had a cluster of three barrels, each with multiple rounds and instead of having a traditional magazine, the officer would carry two or three extra pre-loaded barrel clusters. It also went as far as the gun loudly announcing "Firearm safety Disengaged" so the bad guy would know that the cop meant business and would promptly surrender. It could also fire bursts where it would proudly announce "Burst Mode engaged", all three barrels would fire at once. When the safety was engaged, it would announce "Safety Engaged". Like the full sized versions, in case the round in front of the barrel failed, you could clear it out by firing the second round and so forth. (Not too sure how a barrel could survive clearing out 9 or so squibs in it, plus the powder charges).

[@igorthelight]

An interesting idea but one unit would cost 20x times the "normal" gun if not more ;-)

[@wittsullivan8130]

@@igorthelight Yes. It didn't go anywhere. Plus it's not a great idea if you're trying to find a bad guy and have your gun shot out what setting it's on every time you hit a switch. It might as well shout, "Hey! We're over here!" Plus I don't have a lot of faith that a gun that could handle clearing out 3 or 4 squibs/barrel obstructions with one shot. And the lawsuits if a policemen put it in burst mode to fire both or all three barrels at once. That's giving a regular cop a machinegun.
