• HELLRIEGEL 1915 vs. SM...

[@lorandsilye1464]

Sorry to correct you but the Hellriegel was Austro-Hungarian. Tho I like these comparing videos, keep up. 😉

[@KriticalKris]

Yeah I realised just after uploading, totally forgot it was Austro-Hungarian 🙃

[@darealgreatjob9906]

@Doubt It nice joke bro

[@theginger5245]

Austrian

[@lobaandrade7172]

Y’all remember when the SMG 08/18 was a slow firing skill smg? Yeah me too

[@nostalgiakid4563]

I actually really liked it when it was a slower firing SMG. It felt more unique back then, it felt like a scaled-down Perino. Now it's more like a scaled down Parabellum, and even though thats great, I believe that the slower firing, more sophisticated version was more satisfying and funnier to use in my personal opinion.

[@ludwigh2165]

True if i remember right i think rate of fire before was 450 rpm

[@oneoneoneangel]

i almost forgot! Thank you.

[@thefuzzysheep3859]

Tamas Sandor I liked it better then. It was very easy to use and it was fun to have a slow firing gun

I liked it better back then. Easier to use at long range.

Can you compare the M1912 P.16 and the Frommer Stop Auto ?

[@Kazuhira2249]

I dont think he will make these anymore but id say m1912/p.16 is better for medium range to close especially the experimental the burst on that gun is really good and the frommer auto stop is better for close range it kills really fast when youre in cqc range however in overall id say that the m1912/p.16 is a better weapon overall

[@KevAlberta]

Get 1 service star with each, I find that’s a good amount of time with a weapon to distinguish some differences. 3 service stars if you want to get to know the weapon better

[@Brolaub]

Farquar Hill vs Howell Rifle would be really interesting imo!

[@kingrofty]

Thanks for the great review Kris!! I love using both/rotate between all four of them, but the Hellriegel Defensive will always be my personal favorite, cos it was so bloody hard to unlock it. Cannot wait for your Battlefield V weapon guides & comparisons!

[@ProWalter2]

Smg 08 is the child of the hellriegel and the automatico. It's the best assault weapon hands down. If you want a smg for longer ranges, the ribbey is a better choice that the hellriegel

[@colenelvogel7001]

I think the medic at 1:24 was trying to do a road to battlefield daily task lol

[@nortsoldier]

The SMG 08/18 was good for the non aggressive playstyles before the TTK2.0 patch. When the TTK2.0 Patch came it became even better and to me just became a good suppressive weapon if that makes sense. Then of course they buffed it to much and now its a gun i dont use as i feel so unskilled using it.

[@SHREK2ONDVD1]

smg 08/18 made for agressive players

[@ethhics]

I love your videos on Battlefield. The amount of research and detail you put in your videos is impressive and help out a lot. They are interesting (weapon backgrounds) and nifty when you show the stats. The videos are narrated really well, you have the perfect voice, neutral but also with character.

[@TeddAnimates]

3:40 that transition tho

[@alexfusneica2624]

For versatility and good mid range capability: Hellreigel For close quarters: SMG 08/18

[@alexfusneica2624]

For general use, I prefer the hellreigel, but for exclusively close range the SMG 08/18 is way better

[@nostalgiakid4563]

I think I prefer the Smg08, but only by a small margin. I like the bigger magazine and sligthly faster fire rate which gives it quicker kill times, but I must say that the Smg08's iron sights are one of the worst in the game. But it is meant to be a spray and pray hipfire weapon, so this downside isn't very noticable. Ultimately, they are both good, but I prefer the Smg08. That's just my opinion though.

[@aidang5409]

SMG 08/18 hands down. Even with all the DLC guns, I hate seeing people use the Hellriegal.

[@haubitz1355]

The Hellriegel was Austro-Hungarian not German

[@Preuen-zs1fz]

Austrians = Germans Hungarians = Hungarians

[@thefuzzysheep3859]

I only consider the hellriegel a noob gun because of its damage stats, fast rate of fire and almost no recoil. Whereas I find the SMG 08/18 actually requires skill because of the erratic recoil you get that throws you off beyond 15 to 30 meters

[@benmelozz8699]

jdc527 I disagree, the SMG 08/18 is a noob weapon (in close ranges) but the Hellriegel on the other hand is the best SMG in Bf1

[@nicolasmendez7200]

No hablo ingles pero da igual , solo quiero decir que la smg 08/18 es una arma para noobs clarisimo ,lo note apenas la tome no nesesitas nada de abilidad para disparar de cadera tiene tanta cadencia que das igual , y para distancias medias basta con rafagas cortas , ademas de que no nesesitas administrar las balas ya que tienes un cargador gigante , por ejemplo almenos con el automatico que quedas sin cargador en nada si disparas a lo loco sin embargo con la smg 08/18 eso no pasa

@@bigsmoke8816 not really, i shot someone in the arm with the martini and it did about 89 damage, which is vetterlis damage, enough to kill tbh, it also has more ammo and actually takes skill to use.

Gotta get that "First" accolade!

[@idansheffer56]

I think there are two more major differences: 1. SMG08 has worse hip fire accuracy. 2. Hellrigel has longer time to fully ADS-impacting kill times. But please note the 18% advantage of SMG08 in fire rate makes it much better, it actually outperforms automatico(if all shots hit) and almost any other weapon(shotguns and machinepistole excluded, maybe also the anhilator). Hellrigel is about the same as other assault weapons and loses to some revolvers and even the faster firing lmgs

I don't know if it's I'm not used to SMG N08b/18 or the bullets disperse too much, always I can't take down a person in close range and even if my crosshair is always stay on the person and fire first. According to the damage point, only 2 or 3 bullets hit the target and then I get killed and sometimes by scout using a pistole. What a shame! I miss the old 08/18 which I could take down enemies at close to mid-long much more effectively.

[@nostalgiakid4563]

The Mondragon wins by far against the Sebstslader 1916. Every other Medic primary is better than the Sebstslader 1916, because I believe it is the weakest Medic weapon out there; Slow Fire rate, mediocre damage, terrible recoil, slow handling, bad iron sights. The only redeeming thing about it is the magazine capacity, but with such a slow fire rate you can't really make much use of it. I think it is outclassed by everything else.

[@raptorcell6633]

I would say the M1916. It has that fucking huge mag, better irons, consistent 3 shot kill, the mag reloads faster etc etc
