It's so funny how the F2000 reload is good itself... but the gun is literally in a WWII setting

This is overused joke "I remember my grandpa fight off Japanese in south east Asia with his trusty FN F2000"

The mp5 reload in gta 5 is actually a HK slap, except the player punches the bolt forward

to think the animation team actually fixed the stockless AK-74u reload props.

My pet peeve is seeing modern reload techniques in a ww2 game

I hate when the character holds the sten by the mag.

It’s worth noting that for the SIG clone reload, the hammer would be doing what’s called a hammer follow. For those unaware, that’s when the hammer follows the slide forward and fires the freshly loaded round. Hence the name.

I just realized that in the OG RE4 Leon also uses a clip to reload a scoped rifle

so nothing's wrong with the f2000. it's just the matter of an extremely anachronistic weapon.

5:07 Some MP5s do have bolt releases, such as the MP5/10 or MP5/40 but in this clip he’s more likely “punching” the charging handle back rather than slapping it. For the Thompson, newer repo models have been made to fire close bolt I believe, but you still have to insert drum mags like that from the side. FURTHERMORE 2 of the most common mistake animators make with the Thompson is that 1: Thompson straight mags actually have a bolt hold open mechanism (yes this works on m1928s m1a1s and others) but it removed the need to charge the gun on an empty mag. This did not work on drum mags which brings us to number 2, on Thompsons using drum mags (which the m1a1 couldn’t take) when the mag was emptied and the bolt was forward, the charging handle would need to be pulled back before the drum can be moved or a new one inserted, as the bolt blocks the gap where the drum mags slide in and out from the side. All that being said I don’t know how that works on close bolt Thompsons

Shouldn't it also be weird that in GTA V the gun ejects a shell when you rack the bolt during an empty reload?

With regards to 5:57, that's a problem I have with the "TR-76 Geist" (Malyuk) from MW II, although maybe it's because I don't necessarily understand how the gun works. But whenever you see the operator interact with the magazine there doesn't seem to be any form of actual mag release taking place, at least based on where their hands are during those animations. It just looks like the magazine just falls off when it needs to.

Wait, so did they actually fix the reload for the AKS on MW2?

At 5:14, for the thompson, I saw someone comment already on the bolt having to be opened to load, but another thing is that the magazine comes from the side not the bottom... there is a rail which guides the drum. Also for the G36 in 5:59, the animators may have thought that the G36 had a button mag release and not a paddle one so

clearly

I know next to nothing about guns, but that last reload just looked uncomfortable to pull off. There’s no way that’s a real thing and has any tactical advantage over other reload methods.

I'm with you on the ppsh, I absolutely hate the modern tactical reloads in a ww2 game

5:00 im pretty sure they punched the charging handle instead of a bolt release

An m60E6 can be opened while the bolt id foward while the E1-4 can't.

The XM8 assault rifle version has a messed up bolt and I'm surprised nobody said anything lmao

Some of these i missed and didn't get but now reviwing it really funny once u see the problem.

Pretty sure Musket just means muzzle loader. And better animations are out there of military style cap lock muskets like in War of Rights which got a very sexy animation for it.

6:30 Applies to every gun present in BFV - they re-used some aminations in that game from BF1, but for some reason for BF2042 decided to just make a new ones. Why would you spend more time and resources, if the end product is infinitely worse?

I see what you did there with the lower volume lol

God, the cut between both pipe rifles was so clean, i was under the impression he loaded one round in the chamber, THEN changed drums. Was so confused at first.

Inaccurate, the guys push the bolt of the garand despite being a SELF LOADING RIFLE

0:34 Duplex cartridges based on some kind of Borderlands-style alternate timeline tech? 1:14 That, plus why does the player character reposition their support hand like that? 2:04 And they ALL depict the player character repositioning their support hand for no reason! 2:24 No one salutes with their left hand except in movies and video games. 8:01 Anyone who reloads like that IRL deserves a Darwin award.

In the M60E4 of 2042, this only happens in empty, but it gets even worse since it's closed bolt in the animation. All Portal belt fed LMGs share the same issue minus the M249 SAW, and also all LMGs in Portal open from the receiver, not from behind. This is most likely because of borrowing the feed tray open animation of the KAC LWAMG in All-Out Warfare, which has a very small feed tray compared to other LMGs. The XM8 shares the same animation as the DDM4V7 PRO in All-Out Warfare, which is actually too funny. The STEN reload in Portal is arguably the worst ngl...

Now I understand it all

idk what was wrong w/ the mauser besides it not being clear if the bolt is pulled back before inserting the clipazine

The thing is that boat never slidesin to garant or simmilar ones...you probably can't reload them at all And i don't know about existance of like...magazines you can insert from up then eject? Was that a real thing?

I have another problem with a "tommy": drum magazine is reloaded by sliding it from the side, but here is loaded like a stick magazine from the bottom, wich is imposible, due to diffrent locking caches on magazines and the gun itself. In reality, drum magazine woud be just slammed into magazine well, damaging the magazine

5:30 there are DAO trigger packs for those pistols

The Pipe Rifle's reload animation has 3 bullets in the players hand albeit they proceed to be shoved through the barrel upon insertion, you can see 1-2 frames of it (play at either .25 speed, or frame step using < and >), so it at least does it even if it doesn't make any sense. The animation for chambering rounds when the player bolts the gun however is still inexcusable to me, there's no reason to open the bolt in a way that covers the entire screen if you're going to immediately change how you're holding the bolt the moment you finish pulling it up. You can also add Battlefield 4 to the a list of SIG pistols having a hammer that's decocked after an empty reload, and every shot.

You could do a whole video on how bad fallout 4 weapons reloads are

There are actually a few MP5 models with Bolt Releases

So it is what I thought from the other vid: this is mega gun nerd pedantry, more power to ya, but I wouldn't consider "non perfect realism" in reloads to be "cursed". Tho that shotgun in Vanguard is egregious. Dinging GTA 5's retroactive first person reload animations is a bit funky to me but go off, king. Don't ever play Resident Evil 4 where Leon will load 2 shells into a Street Sweeper and end up with 12 (or 100).

Thanks!

I know I'm a bit late with this one, but I noticed in the comments that it wasn't mentioned. 6:22 You missed what was also wrong with the STEN's reload animation and that is that the STEN is also an Open Bolt System, like the Thompson, but the bolt seems half closed.

kids thinking they would know their way around a firearm because they played call of duty

oh. oh! I was thinking the F2000? what's wrong with the reload, man? that looks proper. I totally blanked on the setting. Some of them I was like "yeah that's cursed." and others it just didn't click.

-for the pipe bolt action multiple rounds are loaded into the gun, its just looks like 1 round is being inserted, however it does look like theres no internal magazine -as others have stated, the GTA V SMG is indeed an HK Slap (well a variant of it) and there are versions of the MP5 that do have bolt releases -Closed bolt thompsons do exist as semi auto commercial repros (tho i imagine it wouldnt be impossible to make em full auto) -the BF portal Sten reload is just very flashy, and as for why they didnt reuse animations, ive heard that their engine make reusing animations very difficult/impossible. its also probably a design decision -what was the problem with the XM8? -aside from the bolt not being open, thats a perfectly reasonable way to reload a C96 rest of them seem to be either "cursed" or just nitpicks (i also know im 10 months late to this video but bah)

My own version of your PPSH peeve is FPS games that try to do an HK slap with the MP40. I say "try" cause they just put the bolt in the safety groove and then take it out cause it is impossible to do a slap with how it's made and they keep doing it and I keep getting annoyed.

At least the GTA 5 reloads are slightly better than 4’s, where Niko pulls the charging handle on the Carbine Rifle and it just somehow magicks another 30 rounds into the mag

Was curious about what made the STEN reload cursed so I came here for an answer, only to find out that... the animation could've been better, but I still haven't heard an explanation of any kind.

Not gonna mention the long ass finger on the Mauser?

That Thompson reload.. You don't rip the damn drum magazine downward, you brute! You slide it out sideways, as it has rails to hold it in place!

Completely off-topic, but damn share factory brings back good memories

modeal of honor allied assault had the best reloads.

i don't think a universal ping noise on a garande reload is cursed. a bit inaccurate? sure. but there's a big difference between "the way a sound effect is stylized in games is a bit inaccurate to how it works in real life tihi" and "putting 40 bullets into a 6 slot cylinder placed on the outside of the gun in a way that clearly doesn't connect to where the ammo goes". something that is actually cursed. something extreme. something that violates the physics of the world and the function of every part of a gun. several other examples in this cursed reload animation video have this problem of not being cursed but like why. having actual cursed reloads as well makes it even more confusing. is it a cursed reload vid or not? prolly why you had to make an explanation video

I never understood why the reload animations in all of the GTA games sucked so hard. In the old ones it kinda works because they look like shit but since GTA IV it bugged me to hell

Which game at 5:26?

The more you learn

bro the likes ratio on this video is more cursed than these damn reloads cause its 666

honestly I just thought the cursed part of the Battlefield 2042 reloads was just that they were fucking ugly.

4:00 what pisses me off is how you didnt mention how the GTAV street sweeper has a fucking charging handle, like what. It looks so weird

the garand doesn't hold itself open once the clip is fully inserted and isn't being pressed down on

I would not even seriously point out errors in reloading weapons from GTA 5. There are just tons of them, and all the weapons in the game are a bizarre cocktail of different types of firearms. Like a machine gun that combines elements from the RPD, PKM and experimental PU-21.

bf2042 reloads are so bad
